Rebel News Podcast - Daily LIVESTREAM： Sheila Gunn Reid and David Menzies

00:00:00.160 Welcome to the audio recording of the Rebel News live stream show.

00:00:05.120 Now folks, every day from Monday to Friday, we here at Rebel News put on the live stream show.

00:00:11.180 It is, as the title suggests, live.

00:00:13.600 We talk about the issues of the day and, of course, we interact with you, our cherished audience.

00:00:20.140 That show is available on YouTube.

00:00:23.160 It airs from noon till one, Eastern Standard Time.

00:00:26.840 As for now, please sit back, relax, and listen to the podcast version of that show.

00:00:42.980 Hey, welcome everybody.

00:00:51.100 You have tuned in to the Rebel News live stream.

00:00:54.300 I'm David Menzies and my lovely co-host in Northern Alberta.

00:00:58.560 Well, that's Sheila the She-Devil Gun Reid. 1.00

00:01:01.320 And now normally you see Ezra Levent in this seat at this time.

00:01:06.700 But Sheila and I, for the foreseeable future, we are doing the live stream on Tuesday and Thursdays.

00:01:13.620 So, if you like the flavor of Menzies and Gun Reid, Tuesday and Thursday. 0.89

00:01:20.540 If not, it's the Big Boss Man on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

00:01:24.620 See, we're all about freedom of choice here.

00:01:26.740 How you doing, Sheila Gun Reid?

00:01:29.260 I'm great.

00:01:30.080 But you should tell these people to choose both of us.

00:01:33.580 Of course.

00:01:34.040 Because, yeah, there's something for everybody.

00:01:37.060 And Ezra has his own way of doing things and presenting the news.

00:01:40.740 And we have our own crazy kind of love or whatever we've got going on here.

00:01:46.660 I'm great.

00:01:48.240 I think we should tell everybody what we're doing here before we drive this show right into the ditch.

00:01:54.500 As we normally tend to do, get all off topic and into the weeds.

00:02:01.120 So, this is, as you point out, our daily live stream.

00:02:05.400 While the mainstream media was cutting local and live coverage during the pandemic, we actually increased ours.

00:02:12.420 And I think our viewers really appreciate it.

00:02:15.420 It seems as though more people tune in than ever before.

00:02:18.480 So, there's definitely a demand for these things.

00:02:20.560 You know, it's funny.

00:02:21.760 The mainstream media will cut live and local news during the pandemic.

00:02:26.640 And then they wonder why nobody watches them all year.

00:02:30.120 I don't know.

00:02:31.000 Maybe give them what they want.

00:02:32.400 I don't know.

00:02:33.280 But anyways, yeah, David and I took over hosting the show on Tuesdays and Thursdays while Ezra was working on the book.

00:02:39.160 And then his book, China Virus.

00:02:40.980 Now, China Virus launched.

00:02:42.860 And Ezra has kindly allowed us to continue doing what we do, which I think is fun.

00:02:46.940 And it breaks up the monotony of the week.

00:02:48.740 And I like interacting with David outside of work.

00:02:53.440 I think we're good friends and good colleagues.

00:02:56.620 I like interacting with the people.

00:02:58.600 And I like giving the people a chance to have their say.

00:03:01.080 And one of the ways that people can have their say and support the work that we do here, because we're not like CBC.

00:03:07.120 We're not going to just rob your pockets.

00:03:09.360 We'll ask you nicely.

00:03:10.360 And if you want to help us, great.

00:03:11.420 And if you don't, that's great, too.

00:03:12.580 We have lots of free content on the network.

00:03:14.780 But you could do something called a super chat.

00:03:17.040 And if you go to the bottom of the very vigorous live chat that's already happening, there's a little dollar sign.

00:03:24.100 And you can click on that.

00:03:25.360 And you can throw some money in the super chat.

00:03:29.500 And that'll highlight your comment and pin it to the top.

00:03:33.140 And I will read it or David will read it.

00:03:35.560 And if we miss it, then Mr. Producer Justin will send it to us.

00:03:38.840 And we'll read your question or comment on air.

00:03:40.940 And maybe it's a topic that you want us to discuss or a question that you have for us.

00:03:44.760 But we'll do our best to address it either way.

00:03:46.900 And it's a great way for you to support the work we do here.

00:03:50.200 A hundred percent.

00:03:51.500 And, you know, folks, let me tell you a little about Sheila Gunn-Reed.

00:03:53.800 You know, when I fell in love with Sheila Gunn-Reed, it was in Israel when she revealed to me that she once owned a Subaru Brat,

00:04:03.000 which is one of my dream oddball vehicles that I want to acquire.

00:04:07.680 And it was such an ingenious vehicle by Subaru because, if I remember, it was built in the early 80s.

00:04:12.980 And it was something to get around tariffs to qualify, not as a pickup truck, but as a passenger vehicle.

00:04:22.320 So, I don't know if Mr. Producer can find a photo of the Subaru Brat.

00:04:26.240 So what Subaru did, in the bed of the pickup, they installed two rear-facing seats.

00:04:33.760 And they were like lawn chairs.

00:04:35.400 They weren't even like, they were just like plastic chairs.

00:04:40.300 Like something that you would just like put a metal frame on and then put it in your yard around the fire pit.

00:04:45.140 These things were bolted into the box of this little tiny cute pickup truck.

00:04:49.000 Mine was bright yellow, by the way.

00:04:50.620 And if I had had more warning about you bringing that up, I would have shared a picture.

00:04:55.720 Now, does that have the seats installed?

00:04:58.480 I can't.

00:04:59.080 It does.

00:04:59.760 Okay, then.

00:05:00.460 Look at that.

00:05:01.160 That's a cool-looking truck.

00:05:02.340 There's a very like El Camino, Ford Ranchero vibe going there.

00:05:06.840 And my enduring memory of that vehicle, Sheila, it was like 1982.

00:05:13.040 I was walking up Davenport Avenue.

00:05:16.000 It was a torrential rainstorm.

00:05:19.520 It was a Subaru Brat going by.

00:05:22.640 And the two occupants in the seats, their clothes were painted onto their bodies.

00:05:29.540 They've never seen such misery.

00:05:31.700 I mean, it's a great idea on paper if you're in a temperate climate, right?

00:05:35.640 But the idea of driving around 365 exposed to the elements in Canada, it just doesn't work.

00:05:44.080 But you should never have gotten rid of that vehicle, Sheila Gunn-Reed.

00:05:48.500 I know.

00:05:49.340 I regret it all the time.

00:05:52.240 And they're so hard to find.

00:05:54.420 I know.

00:05:54.880 It's so hard to find parts.

00:05:56.420 All the parts have to come from California pretty well because that was like the only place that that vehicle ever made sense.

00:06:03.240 But, yeah, mine was bright yellow.

00:06:04.780 I got it at an auction sale.

00:06:06.720 And, yeah, I regret ever parting with it.

00:06:09.720 And it wasn't all that – it wasn't that long ago.

00:06:12.900 Like, it was maybe six or eight years ago.

00:06:16.720 It felt like it wasn't that long ago that I had it.

00:06:19.480 And I just – I regret it all the time.

00:06:21.680 I think everybody has one of those vehicles that they part – that they sell or they part with for a number of different reasons.

00:06:29.800 And that's the one for me.

00:06:32.320 It's the vehicle that got away.

00:06:33.940 And let's throw that out there.

00:06:35.140 You have a dream vehicle, folks.

00:06:37.340 Say what it is.

00:06:38.200 Mine, of course, is the Performance Batmobile built by Fiberglass Freaks in Indianapolis.

00:06:43.880 It is, however, $250,000 U.S. dollars.

00:06:47.900 And, of course, I'd have to buy a Batman costume to go with it.

00:06:51.560 So, unless I get some, you know, Lotto Max money my way – oh, no, I can't.

00:06:57.180 I'm boycotting Lotto Max.

00:06:58.520 I forgot.

00:06:59.040 Lotto 649 money my way.

00:07:02.000 That's not going to happen.

00:07:04.320 But in any event, Sheila, we should get back to business here.

00:07:07.700 We have a brand-new Rebel, don't we?

00:07:10.500 And I thought she more or less hit it out of the ballpark with an interview she did with a guy that if I ever bumped into,

00:07:18.120 man, would I love to buy this guy a beer and have a heart-to-heart chat.

00:07:23.560 So, I figured since David Menzies has been having so much fun covering the protests over on the east side of Canada,

00:07:29.360 actually, scratch that, maybe it's not always fun and games since David and some of the other crew members have been assaulted for covering such stories.

00:07:36.520 But nevertheless, I thought it would be a good idea to highlight what a protest out here on the west side of Canada is like.

00:07:45.160 I'm Drea Humphrey with rebelnews.com, and on Sunday afternoon, approximately 50 people took to the streets of Vancouver, B.C.

00:07:54.720 to protest the pandemic lockdown.

00:07:57.840 This is part of an ongoing No New Normal protests that meet weekly.

00:08:02.880 Protesters held signs in opposition to things like masks, contact tracing, lockdown restrictions,

00:08:09.280 during a march that started at the Vancouver Art Gallery.

00:08:12.440 The No New Normal protesters want businesses, schools, churches, sports, and community centers to be fully open,

00:08:21.300 and they definitely don't want to be forced to wear a mask.

00:08:25.160 The protest marchers attracted a lot of attention from public, and some of it ended in peaceful disagreements.

00:08:32.840 But not everyone there was opposed to the protests or the protesters' message.

00:08:39.400 Numerous vehicles passing by honked in support, as well as one pro-Trump black man,

00:08:45.620 who told me he was stranded in Canada during the coronavirus-inspired border controls.

00:08:51.140 I asked him about Black Lives Matter, Canadian media's obsession with hating Trump,

00:08:58.060 the pandemic new normal, and what he thinks is behind the new societal discord.

00:09:03.820 I think you're really gonna enjoy, or be blown away, I'm not sure, at what he has to say.

00:09:10.120 Check it out.

00:09:10.780 Okay, so you were just walking right by the protests, and you kind of just said,

00:09:14.480 hey, those are my people. 0.99

00:09:15.680 Right, absolutely, because I've been preaching the truth, realizing that this whole COVID situation is all bullsh**t. 0.98

00:09:23.420 Let me mic up. 0.97

00:09:24.680 I'm sorry, I'll just hold it.

00:09:25.720 Okay. 0.98

00:09:26.480 Yeah, I've just been realizing that this whole COVID thing has just been all bullsh**t.

00:09:31.980 Propaganda, ways for them to continuously keep these borders closed.

00:09:36.620 The whole lockdown just had a whole effect on our whole immune system, our whole health.

00:09:42.100 And, you know, they just want us sick, and what the perfect timing with this election coming up in November.

00:09:49.560 And now, like, I'm an American citizen.

00:09:51.660 I've actually been stuck here in Canada since this whole situation has transpired.

00:09:56.700 Yeah, so...

00:09:57.060 Okay, so you're seeing both sides of everything.

00:09:59.220 Right.

00:09:59.860 What do you think about Canadians' obsession with hating Trump?

00:10:03.340 What do you think that's all about?

00:10:04.400 It's the propaganda, and I really think that I would advise people to use...

00:10:09.860 For me, I didn't really know too much about politics, but what I've seen was there was a couple times there was headlines saying,

00:10:16.520 Trump said this, Trump said this, and after thoroughly investigating and watching the video or whatever it was,

00:10:22.160 whatever media or content was being promoted, and I actually got to see what Trump was actually saying,

00:10:28.220 and it wasn't whatever the headlines were being pushed.

00:10:31.520 So, for me, I've never seen, in America, honestly, in all my life, I've never seen,

00:10:38.240 and not to put labels on it racist, but white media attack a white man so much.

00:10:44.340 I've never seen it, ever, in my life.

00:10:46.760 So, I think that, obviously, there's something that he must be doing right because, you know,

00:10:53.460 these people own all the major media outlets, and, you know, I know that they put propaganda out just for people to believe this narrative,

00:11:02.140 that narrative, but if people do the research and just dig a little deeper and have an open mind,

00:11:07.980 that they'll realize that, like, you know, Trump is actually for the people,

00:11:11.480 and I think that just, you know, America has just pressed this narrative that I think that, you know,

00:11:18.460 people just assume, like, people, you know, most people are sheep.

00:11:21.820 It is what it is.

00:11:22.820 You know, I ain't here to play no games, but I feel like most people are just sheep,

00:11:27.000 and they fall into this way of thinking because that's how most people think.

00:11:33.000 So, I just, my advice is for people to just do your due diligence, do your research,

00:11:39.320 just dig a little bit deeper and kind of block out the noise, the white noise and everything that you've heard,

00:11:46.580 and just kind of be informed for yourself, not like being informed based on what this person has told you,

00:11:54.300 that person has told you, but just do your own research and have an open mind and discover your own opinion.

00:12:01.340 Right. And then what about Black Lives Matter? Do you think that ties into any of all this?

00:12:06.760 No, but Black Lives Matter is government. Black Lives Matter is, what's homeboy's name? 0.57

00:12:13.820 Marxists?

00:12:14.640 No, no, no. George Soros. Government. Boulay.

00:12:19.120 Like, so Black Lives Matter, the movement has been hijacked. It's not, you know, the movement has been infiltrated.

00:12:28.400 So, and then when you really look at it, you know, what, Black Lives Matter only when it's police brutality? 0.90

00:12:35.260 Black Lives Don't Matter when them six children got murdered in Chicago on Father's Day?

00:12:39.820 Where were they at then?

00:12:41.600 They wasn't out marching and protesting and this and then.

00:12:44.380 Black Lives Only Matter when it's a, you know, when it's a form, when it's a police taking a black life, 0.99

00:12:49.480 but not when another black person is taking another black life. 0.99

00:12:52.180 So that whole movement is bullshit and it's just a form of distraction to keep people, keep us distracted 1.00

00:12:57.740 and to keep more, more, more separation amongst the people, to keep us, keep us divided. 0.99

00:13:03.060 Divide and conquer. It's a simple war tactic.

00:13:05.380 For Rebel News, telling the other side of the story from the streets of Vancouver, I'm Drea Humphrey.

00:13:10.720 Well, Sheila, first of all, what a great debut by Drea.

00:13:14.920 That was a magnificent report.

00:13:16.560 And of course, what made that video was her finding that person that she interviewed.

00:13:22.640 Now, of course, Sheila, I must say, despite his skin pigmentation, according to Joe Biden,

00:13:27.460 he wouldn't be a real black man because he's pro-Trump, apparently.

00:13:32.040 So, wow, isn't it great to see that there are members of the black community that don't buy into the Democratic Party's narrative 0.91

00:13:43.220 of stay on the Democratic plantation, that they are thinking freely, that they are pro-Republican.

00:13:51.420 And I might add, this is probably the Democrats' worst nightmare going into the 2020 election.

00:13:58.640 Well, yeah, like, it's how Justin Trudeau and the Liberals sort of treat Canada's Indigenous people.

00:14:06.940 They treat Canada's Indigenous people as though they are this monolith, this political monolith,

00:14:13.420 this vote bloc that they're entitled to every time.

00:14:16.640 No matter how they fail them on the issues, in Canada, it's clean drinking water on reserve.

00:14:20.980 In the United States, how Democrat mayors allow their cities to plunge into chaos like Detroit and Chicago. 0.73

00:14:32.080 And it is black people and minorities who pay the price for these bad policies. 1.00

00:14:37.000 And yet still, after all of this, they feel entitled, like Joe Biden is, to their votes.

00:14:43.160 And it's very, I hate to use the word, because it's a word the left always uses, but it is very paternalistic.

00:14:50.980 It is so paternalistic to think that simply because you're on the left, that you're entitled to the votes of a certain ethnic or group, demographic group.

00:15:07.260 Black people are just as independent as the rest of us, likewise with our Indigenous people.

00:15:12.080 And they can think for themselves.

00:15:15.140 They don't need Joe Biden to tell them how to vote or think.

00:15:18.400 And, you know, it was great.

00:15:20.020 Just getting back to Drea.

00:15:21.860 Now that I've gone off on that tangent, just getting back to Drea.

00:15:25.580 For Drea's debut, that was really great.

00:15:28.880 And she did something that the mainstream media doesn't do, and that's go where the news is. 1.00

00:15:36.840 She heard about this protest.

00:15:38.220 She went down to have a look at it.

00:15:39.560 And she rolled her camera like journalists do. 0.99

00:15:43.360 I mean, it's not complicated to be a journalist.

00:15:45.100 You have to be where the news is, and you have to be collecting the news.

00:15:48.480 And she saw this guy take a photo with one of the protesters.

00:15:53.040 And she thought, hey, what's this guy from the public taking a photo with the protesters?

00:15:57.560 Like, it's something to, it's one thing to, like, stop, applaud, honk your horn, to show support.

00:16:03.660 But he stopped the protester to take a photo with him.

00:16:07.600 And she thought, okay, great.

00:16:08.860 I'll ask this guy what it's all about.

00:16:10.960 And this incredible story unfolded right in front of her.

00:16:15.340 And the mainstream media could do that, but they don't have the intellectual curiosity that Drea does or the wherewithal to just head out there on a Sunday afternoon and see what the people are doing.

00:16:31.840 They don't do those sorts of things.

00:16:33.020 They report on the issues happening in our cities and in our lives from a cubicle in downtown Toronto, downtown Ottawa, downtown Edmonton.

00:16:42.360 They don't go where the news is.

00:16:43.940 You're absolutely right, Sheila.

00:16:45.320 And it's even worse than that.

00:16:46.740 And I know we have a lot of super chats.

00:16:48.200 Before we get to that, I'll back up an example that supports your position.

00:16:53.140 I remember when Efren and I were covering the hijab hoax protest at Queen's Park by several hundred members of the Asian community, maybe as many as a thousand, who were really upset that their community was falsely targeted.

00:17:10.700 Do you remember there was that little girl who claimed that an Asian man with scissors cut up her hijab?

00:17:17.120 By the way, I subscribe to Ezra's belief that she blew the hoax in saying Asian.

00:17:24.540 She was probably told to say Caucasian because it doesn't make sense to go after another visible minority.

00:17:33.160 But a little girl doesn't know the word Caucasian.

00:17:35.900 That's an adult word.

00:17:37.140 Exactly.

00:17:38.220 That's implanting a story in her head.

00:17:39.840 And she remembered it as best she could, obviously, but it wasn't the whole word.

00:17:45.120 But then again, that's just a theory.

00:17:47.720 But what I can tell you as fact, they're marching down University Avenue in a couple of lanes cordoned off by police and coming down University Avenue is a CBC News Dodge Caravan minivan.

00:18:04.500 And they come to a like they're going like maybe five kilometers an hour.

00:18:10.380 They're coming to a halt because, hey, what's happening here?

00:18:12.980 This looks like news.

00:18:14.260 Hundreds of people.

00:18:15.740 They read the signs, presumably.

00:18:17.420 And then, oh, man, like a bat out of hell, they hit the accelerator and went right back to headquarters on Front Street.

00:18:27.380 That ain't the narrative we want to do.

00:18:30.020 I mean, if this was something denouncing white supremacy or something, they would have pulled over and filmed.

00:18:35.460 But this was the Asian community denouncing the hijab hoax.

00:18:39.400 Not our cup of tea.

00:18:40.880 Bye.

00:18:41.940 Yeah.

00:18:43.020 Minorities denouncing Justin Trudeau.

00:18:45.100 Oh, we can't get out of there fast enough, David.

00:18:49.040 They probably got a speeding ticket on the way out.

00:18:50.960 I actually saw this firsthand also a couple of different times.

00:18:57.140 About a month back, maybe a little more, when at the Alberta legislature, the sheriffs moved in on the protesters who were very clearly social distancing and then picked up a couple of them and carried them away.

00:19:09.760 I got footage.

00:19:11.200 The protesters got footage.

00:19:12.660 CBC, who is standing on the lawn, like 40 feet in the other direction with their cameras zoomed in, they wouldn't want to get too close to these people.

00:19:21.220 They're, you know, conservatives and they've got cooties.

00:19:24.400 But they they you never saw any footage of the arrest and them like physically carrying away protesters on the CBC, even though I know full well they got it.

00:19:36.640 I was also victim to this twice when I was punched in the back at the UCP convention by people who were there in support of like the public sector unions and the teachers.

00:19:49.120 I was outside with Ian.

00:19:52.160 I was like punched by a man in the back as I was trying to get away from him.

00:19:58.080 And the I think it was CTV.

00:20:01.640 They were probably eight feet away, parked on the other side of the sidewalk in their running vehicle.

00:20:08.040 They didn't see a thing, though.

00:20:09.780 They didn't see this like big commotion and a guy punching a woman.

00:20:12.520 And when I was punched by Dion Buse, I can't believe I'm listing off all the times I've been punched at work.

00:20:19.560 But when I was punched by Dion Buse, I know a reporter from the Canadian or a video journalist for the Canadian press.

00:20:31.260 I think he's actually a photojournalist for the Canadian press.

00:20:33.520 I could see him in my video footage of the assault against me, taking pictures of the assault.

00:20:42.180 He's in my frame, pointing his camera at me, taking pictures.

00:20:46.600 And when we reached out to the Canadian press and said, hey, why aren't you reporting on this?

00:20:51.080 Where's your footage?

00:20:52.660 They said, oh, none of it was usable.

00:20:54.540 Until all of a sudden, the story goes huge.

00:20:58.980 This, I guess he's probably a freelance photojournalist, was able to sell the photo.

00:21:04.100 And then all of a sudden, miraculously, all of a sudden, oh, they do have footage now of the assault.

00:21:12.480 So that's all like when you're looking for photos of the Dion Buse assault and you can see me like around the camera from another angle.

00:21:20.320 All of that is coming from that Canadian press photojournalist when they said they didn't have usable photos in the, like, hours after that happened.

00:21:30.160 Isn't that amazing?

00:21:31.380 They say not usable, not meaning that it was out of focus or blurry or too dark, but it doesn't fit the ideological narrative until it goes really big.

00:21:41.860 In that case, suddenly it's usable.

00:21:44.900 Unbelievable.

00:21:45.580 I tell you, Sheila, and by the way, I forgot some of those incidents in which you were punched.

00:21:52.720 I'd go over my inventory, but we've got only, what, 40 minutes on the end. 0.77

00:21:59.460 You're the most molested journalist in all of Canada. 0.86

00:22:05.460 You just go out onto the streets and you have all these weirdos just putting their hands on you every time you leave the house. 0.97

00:22:11.000 It's crazy.

00:22:11.580 It's just too bad the Ryerson School of Journalism back in the 80s when I went for three years didn't have, like, a mixed martial arts course.

00:22:20.400 That would have been way more effective than half the bird courses I took.

00:22:24.280 Anyway, Sheila, go right into those super chats. 1.00

00:22:27.800 You know, I can't believe, look, maybe I can believe it.

00:22:31.580 I was going to say, I can't believe you wasted three years on journalism school.

00:22:34.620 But you waste all kinds of money on electric cars. 0.99

00:22:38.760 So, I mean, just a fool in his money, right? 0.97

00:22:41.820 Plug-in hybrids. 0.99

00:22:44.040 Electric.

00:22:45.200 Yeah.

00:22:45.740 Like a vacuum cleaner or a blender.

00:22:48.740 Pink Phoenix Nails gives us $2.

00:22:50.660 Says YouTube took away her unicorn super sticker.

00:22:54.060 For shame, YouTube.

00:22:56.360 Let's keep going.

00:22:57.700 Julian Borges gives us, or Borges gives us $2.

00:23:01.040 Favorite Paul McCartney and Wings song.

00:23:05.360 I don't have one.

00:23:06.860 I don't like Paul McCartney.

00:23:08.340 I don't like the Beatles.

00:23:09.460 I think they introduced a bunch of New Age baloney into the Western world that we're still trying to weed out of our churches. 1.00

00:23:15.940 Come on.

00:23:16.440 And I don't like Paul McCartney and his anti-seal hunt baloney and his forcing vegetarianism on, like, his roadies and stuff.

00:23:30.200 Like, they always have a vegetarian menu.

00:23:33.480 You know what?

00:23:34.700 If you believe your food has vibrations, that's your business.

00:23:37.480 But please give everybody else the option of eating the things that sustain human life.

00:23:42.020 But, Sheila, I'm going to take you to task here because in the department, like, what you said about Paul McCartney's political and ideological beliefs, I'm 100% with you.

00:23:52.040 But let's separate the art from the artist.

00:23:54.900 And when you talk about the artistry of Paul McCartney and Wings and the Beatles, you can't discount that music.

00:24:01.580 And, by the way, to answer the question from the viewer, my number one Paul McCartney and Wings song is definitely, and it's an absolutely astonishing masterpiece, I think, Band on the Run, which is actually three separate songs stitched together in terms of tempo and narrative and all that other musical stuff that I don't understand because I can't even play a flute.

00:24:26.660 But, anyways, that is my answer, Band on the Run.

00:24:29.200 I don't think the musical contributions outweigh the cultural damage caused by the Beatles and Paul McCartney.

00:24:40.100 I just don't.

00:24:41.160 I do my best.

00:24:42.180 I really do.

00:24:43.080 I do my best to separate the artist from their politics.

00:24:48.260 For example, I love Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

00:24:51.660 I love that movie.

00:24:53.140 I cannot stand much of the politics of the people who are in it.

00:24:57.400 I can't.

00:24:58.140 I don't, you know, it's red-handed.

00:25:00.080 And that's what you have to do.

00:25:01.060 You have to park your beliefs.

00:25:02.280 Oh, and by the way, fake Deborah Harry says her favorite Paul McCartney and Wings song is Mrs. Vanderbilt.

00:25:08.760 I don't know that one.

00:25:11.260 Of course.

00:25:11.760 She's so obscure.

00:25:13.880 No, I don't.

00:25:15.340 Margaret is so obscure, but I think that's why I think she's so smart.

00:25:19.000 She is.

00:25:19.600 She's quirky.

00:25:20.340 She's very quirky.

00:25:21.340 She's quirky, yet feisty. 0.86

00:25:23.580 A bit of this, a bit of that.

00:25:24.700 But anyway, she's one of them pretty nerds. 1.00

00:25:30.280 John P. gives us $27.99.

00:25:33.560 Y'all need someone out in Niagara.

00:25:35.200 I got spare time to contribute as a conservative voice.

00:25:37.880 You know, David gets given her out there in the Niagara region once in a while when a story takes them there.

00:25:43.740 David, you cover so much ground in Ontario.

00:25:47.160 Huge province.

00:25:47.840 But you seem to be getting around that whole bottom part of it.

00:25:50.900 Well, you know, Sheila, in March when the economy first shut down post St. Patrick's Day, we did go out to Niagara Falls.

00:25:59.540 And I'm glad we did because I think it was a once in a lifetime, definitely a once in a lifetime, once in a century moment where we went around Niagara Falls and it was a ghost town.

00:26:11.300 And there are many ghosts, but what made it so eerie were all these, you know, circus sideshow attractions, wax museums, Ferris wheels, all deserted, all empty.

00:26:25.220 You know, even the falls itself, which remember Niagara Falls is a tourist destination, I think attracts something like 35 million visitors a year, which is almost a population of Canada itself.

00:26:37.540 And there was only maybe a half a dozen people looking at the Horseshoe Falls.

00:26:42.580 It was so eerie.

00:26:45.400 And you know what?

00:26:46.680 And it was heartbreaking because, again, you look at how many people's businesses have just been destroyed by this ludicrous idea of shutting down the entire economy when we should have directed our resources to those who are the most vulnerable.

00:27:01.820 And, of course, I mean the elderly, the affirmed, those with respiratory diseases that are in long-term care facilities.

00:27:08.320 But, yeah.

00:27:09.020 So, you know, but I'm glad I went to see it for myself because if I hadn't seen it, I probably wouldn't have believed it.

00:27:15.740 You know, and like you point out, heartbreaking.

00:27:18.840 It's the height of tourist season.

00:27:20.580 Yeah.

00:27:20.960 And nobody's in Niagara Falls.

00:27:23.380 Let's keep moving.

00:27:24.220 I hope everybody can separate my bad musical tastes from my political work and journalist work that I do here.

00:27:33.580 I realize that I'm condemning the Beatles for the things that I'm probably guilty of right now.

00:27:40.100 Cindy Remmer gives us $10 Canadian.

00:27:42.860 My car is called Pearl.

00:27:44.780 She's pearly white.

00:27:45.800 You know what?

00:27:46.340 I used to drive a gold.

00:27:51.720 I guess it was gold.

00:27:52.680 I don't know what the official color was.

00:27:54.720 A gold F350 Dually.

00:27:57.960 Wow.

00:27:58.280 And we called it Champagne Lightning.

00:28:00.480 That was my daily driver.

00:28:01.620 I had two car seats in the back.

00:28:04.100 You know what?

00:28:04.800 That raises an interesting question.

00:28:06.320 I remember once reading a story about that.

00:28:08.520 Do you give your car a nickname, right?

00:28:11.780 Do you call it something?

00:28:13.420 And I think, you know, for me, you know, maybe for a lot of guys, it's when it's the middle of January and it's minus 40 and you turn the key and it's, and you start out like this.

00:28:27.660 Oh, come on, baby. 1.00

00:28:28.800 Come on, baby. 0.97

00:28:29.780 And then when baby doesn't turn over, well, you end up using a word that rhymes with witch, I think.

00:28:37.560 So that's, again, those are my nicknames for those inanimate objects.

00:28:42.280 That's because your horrible little electric cars don't work in Canadian winters. 0.53

00:28:46.520 It has always turned over.

00:28:48.220 Oh, sneaky beaver gives us $5 Canadian, a mandatory face diaper for all Quebec on Saturday.

00:28:58.820 What's your take on this?

00:28:59.980 I'm not acquiescing to the government this time.

00:29:02.780 I feel robbed big time.

00:29:06.260 You know, it's funny because we were told for the longest time that masks didn't work.

00:29:10.800 We didn't need them.

00:29:11.920 Shouldn't wear them.

00:29:12.940 And now the government is mandating them.

00:29:14.960 And it's, they're relying on the same expert advice that told them you shouldn't wear them.

00:29:22.680 And those experts were merely being political.

00:29:26.240 They were covering for the fact that the Public Health Agency of Canada threw out a bunch of masks and never replaced them.

00:29:32.320 And also that Justin Trudeau shipped almost our entire strategic stockpile that remained over to China, even though they make the masks in China.

00:29:40.840 So I think I'm not against masks, but I am against this mixed messaging that's come from the very beginning from the government.

00:29:53.840 They said closing the borders wouldn't work until they closed the borders.

00:29:57.380 Then it wasn't racist to say those things.

00:29:59.300 So it's hard to rely on expert information when your experts are actually political and not really scientific.

00:30:08.080 Well, you know, Sheila, I was recognized on Saturday in Richmond Hill by someone who told me she's a nurse.

00:30:15.040 I won't say her name or the hospital she works at, but she said this mask policy is absolute hogwash.

00:30:23.340 This is from a veteran nurse.

00:30:25.780 And I'll tell you, I think it's just, you know, Ezra said this before that so many of these government officials have gotten a taste of totalitarian policy.

00:30:35.200 And they really like the taste.

00:30:37.460 And we're seeing, I think, the nanny state on steroids. 1.00

00:30:40.880 And I think you, my friend, last week had one of the best commentary.

00:30:44.660 It made me laugh out loud so many times when you had the city of Toronto and I think Dr.

00:30:50.220 Trisa Tam weighing in on Wuhan virus sex tips.

00:30:54.900 The number one one being, consider, what did they call it, solitary sex? 0.96

00:31:03.040 Yeah.

00:31:03.940 Like they said something like, yourself is the safest sex partner.

00:31:10.040 Like what is that?

00:31:11.760 I mean, I want, listen, city of Toronto.

00:31:14.180 Government workers saying that.

00:31:15.400 Yeah, I want you to pick up the trash, pave the streets, give me clean drinking water, take the trash out of Nathan Phillips Square when they camp there.

00:31:23.420 How about that?

00:31:24.520 Don't be spending my dollars on COVID-19 sex tips.

00:31:30.160 I think we can figure it out.

00:31:31.920 Anyways, more Super Chat.

00:31:33.800 Yes, please.

00:31:35.440 Okay.

00:31:35.720 Connie McDonald gives us $10.

00:31:37.500 I don't see a Super Chat.

00:31:38.360 Thank you very much, Connie.

00:31:39.240 Tetra Resinstone gives us $9.99, Canadian.

00:31:44.940 Sheila, any Jessica Wax My Balls Yaniv update?

00:31:50.100 Yeah.

00:31:50.640 It sounds like they're charging him.

00:31:54.480 And Kian's got an update on the Rebel website about that.

00:31:59.540 He was at the legislature doing other work because we go to the legislature even though the other journalists don't want us there.

00:32:06.920 And we're going to keep going because taking us out of places, well, that's how you get more Rebel, not less.

00:32:11.980 But yeah, Kian got word of some breaking news that Jonathan Yaniv was going to be arrested.

00:32:19.580 And he did a video about that while he was there.

00:32:22.440 And you can find that on the Rebel website.

00:32:24.000 So finally, finally, I think the law is truly, truly going to catch up with Jonathan Jessica Yaniv.

00:32:31.720 And I know that he still awaits sentencing for some weapons charges and we'll be sure to cover that, too.

00:32:39.120 Maybe even Drea will head down there and cover that since she's in the lower mainland. 1.00

00:32:43.200 But, Sheila, let me tell you something.

00:32:44.900 Here is the tragic epilogue to that story if it ends up that he has to do jail time.

00:32:50.820 They're going to put him in a woman's correctional facility. 1.00

00:32:53.680 He just has to say, I'm a chick, even though I've got testicles. 1.00

00:32:57.940 And, yep, that's good enough. 0.99

00:33:00.100 And he will once again, no doubt, prey upon people in that facility.

00:33:05.660 They put male sex offenders into female prisons once they immediately self-identify.

00:33:13.120 And there doesn't have to be surgery.

00:33:15.200 There doesn't even have to be hormones.

00:33:16.840 It's the way you self-identify.

00:33:18.820 So these male sex offenders who are not, I guess, for all intents and purposes, chemically castrated by female hormones, they're still going into female prisons and thus putting the female population at risk.

00:33:33.920 And we are not hearing from the feminists in Justin Trudeau's government about this.

00:33:38.840 In fact, this is being done to female prisoners by Justin Trudeau's government.

00:33:45.400 No, feminists now have a chant, which is trans women are real women. 1.00

00:33:51.400 They do. 0.96

00:33:52.200 They have thrown their constituency, you know, real women under the bus for a percent of a percent of a percent of a lunatic fringe. 1.00

00:34:02.260 They have done that, Sheila.

00:34:03.540 I don't understand.

00:34:06.400 And here's the thing.

00:34:07.600 I don't care how you live your life.

00:34:08.820 Like, I really, really, really don't care how anybody lives their life because I don't want them to care how I live my life.

00:34:14.940 I want, I'm a leave me alone social conservative.

00:34:18.180 You live your life.

00:34:20.720 Whatever my opinion of you should never matter.

00:34:24.420 Live your life.

00:34:25.060 And if you think that you don't like my opinion, live your life to spite me.

00:34:29.180 I don't care.

00:34:30.600 And I don't want the government to make me care.

00:34:33.720 But that's what's happening.

00:34:34.760 And I don't think it's fair to sacrifice the safety of 50 percent of the population and the comfort of 50 percent of the population to appease a statistical rounding error of people.

00:34:52.060 I'm sorry.

00:34:53.000 It's just not fair.

00:34:54.520 And I hate to use the word fair, but it really isn't right.

00:34:57.580 It's it's we are being governed by a rounding error of people.

00:35:03.040 And and that's not how it should be.

00:35:05.160 But again, I stress live your life.

00:35:08.560 You know what, Sheila?

00:35:10.360 I'm sorry, my friend.

00:35:11.580 I'm calling BS on what you just said about live your life because you continually pick on members of the plug in hybrid community. 1.00

00:35:22.120 Live your life to spite me.

00:35:24.260 Plug that car in and do it to just think this one's for you, Sheila. 1.00

00:35:28.960 Every time you plug that horrible little car into the wall.

00:35:32.000 You know, when you think of it, when Jonathan does go to jail, if he does go to jail, he'll be kind of a plug in hybrid to.

00:35:37.960 It won't.

00:35:41.360 OK, let's keep moving on, moving on.

00:35:46.080 OK, muzzle flash gives us five dollars Australian.

00:35:49.780 I think the exchange rate between our pesos and theirs are pretty close.

00:35:53.640 Second wave in Australia. 0.84

00:35:55.020 Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.

00:35:56.100 Oi, oi, oi.

00:35:56.920 Is this the second wave?

00:35:58.340 Are you guys like getting the second wave?

00:36:01.020 I haven't been paying attention all that much to what's happening with regard to down under.

00:36:06.460 And I know I really should.

00:36:08.940 We have a large constituency of people who watch us down there, at least a sizable constituency.

00:36:13.040 And we really should be paying closer attention to what's going on there.

00:36:16.140 Is it a second wave or is it a fact that there is just more testing being done?

00:36:22.500 This is, you know, it's so, you know, unintentionally funny to see the U.S.

00:36:28.060 media crucified Donald Trump with these out of control coronavirus positive tests when the

00:36:35.900 fact is they've tested well over 40 million people.

00:36:40.040 And what they don't report on, Sheila, is the number of deaths.

00:36:45.140 That's the most relevant statistic.

00:36:48.220 Or sick hospitalizations intensive care.

00:36:51.900 Like, I'm going to be talking to a Florida-based journalist, Alex Newman, from The New American

00:36:57.260 on my weekly show, The Gun Show, which sits behind the paywall.

00:37:01.600 But you can subscribe at rebelnews.com slash subscribe.

00:37:05.620 I think it's only eight bucks a month and you get access to my show and David's show and

00:37:09.000 Ezra's nightly show.

00:37:10.180 So it's, you know, it's worth the price of admission, but he's a Florida-based journalist

00:37:13.720 and I was emailing him back and forth to ask him to come on the show and tell him the things

00:37:18.800 that I wanted to talk about.

00:37:19.900 And I'm like, Alex, if this email finds you, I know that you're probably already dead because

00:37:25.820 I get my news from the mainstream media.

00:37:29.200 Everybody in Florida is dead right now. 0.98

00:37:31.700 So I'll avenge you.

00:37:33.340 But yeah, because in Florida, they're doing mass testing.

00:37:36.820 So they're getting, of course, they're finding the positive people in society, but those are

00:37:44.500 not reflected in their hospitalization rates or intensive care rates or their deaths.

00:37:50.280 And everybody's like, Florida, their plan failed because Florida didn't really close their

00:37:56.740 businesses.

00:37:57.120 They really didn't close their outdoor places.

00:37:59.820 They let people go to the beach.

00:38:01.480 They said, you know, like, keep it a little bit under control at the beach, but, you know,

00:38:05.820 go to the beach, get some fresh air.

00:38:07.540 And they did that and they didn't have the total collapse of their health care system

00:38:13.640 like what we saw in New York that everybody suspected.

00:38:18.980 And it's funny because Florida is where all the old people from New York go and they were 1.00

00:38:25.400 much better off being in Florida than they were staying at home in New York.

00:38:29.080 And so, yeah, you'll hear a lot of reporting about the positive tests coming out in Florida

00:38:34.300 and how Florida's plan failed.

00:38:36.200 But then when you drill down and look at their hospitalization rates, it's like next to nothing.

00:38:40.920 So it did.

00:38:42.540 Their plan did work and New York's didn't.

00:38:45.440 But for some reason, the governor in New York is, you know, his tires are really being

00:38:50.680 pumped by the media and everybody thinks he's doing a good job.

00:38:53.360 The same governor who is putting sick people into long-term care homes in New York State.

00:39:01.640 Unbelievable.

00:39:02.700 But Cuomo's the hero. 0.63

00:39:04.640 Trump's the villain.

00:39:05.980 World's upside down, Sheila.

00:39:07.680 Anyway.

00:39:08.020 Because his brother is a popular mainstream media journalist.

00:39:10.980 So it's easy to, like, create that narrative when you've got a guy on the inside doing it for you.

00:39:16.580 George Watts gives us $6.99 Canadian.

00:39:20.640 What should I do about my company having anti-race training?

00:39:26.120 I brawn X.

00:39:27.680 So anti-racism training.

00:39:29.120 Who's making you do that?

00:39:30.620 Are you doing that to your staff?

00:39:33.220 Like, I'm sorry.

00:39:34.620 I don't.

00:39:35.000 I wish I knew more.

00:39:36.400 I've been privy to some leaked emails from within the government who are sending me, like,

00:39:43.220 emails about the anti-racism training that they have to do, for example, at Statistics Canada. 0.97

00:39:50.700 And it sounds pretty darn crazy and ridiculous. 0.97

00:39:56.640 And it makes you seem as though you're naturally racist just by virtue of not being an ethnic or religious minority, 0.99

00:40:04.380 which is racism in and of itself, isn't it?

00:40:07.060 Well, you know, Sheila, that's an uncanny email to get, given the timing,

00:40:11.540 because I'm, later today, I'll be doing a report on the Public Service Alliance of Canada.

00:40:17.080 So that's a public sector union.

00:40:18.460 So in other words, our tax tellers are paying for this.

00:40:21.100 Last night, they put on an anti-racism seminar for their members.

00:40:26.400 Oops.

00:40:26.560 I mean, they're white members, but if you're a person of colour, you can join.

00:40:32.160 But, I mean, what does that say, first of all?

00:40:34.120 They're basically saying that if you are black, brown, Asian, naturally, you are non-racist.

00:40:41.320 This is directed to white members, unless, of course, I'm proven wrong,

00:40:44.960 and they have an anti-racism seminar for those groups, which I doubt we'll see.

00:40:50.940 But here is the most egregious thing of all folks, what this union did.

00:40:54.980 The co-host of this seminar, the one from the moral high ground,

00:40:59.640 preaching to the rank and file, was none other than Nora Loretto.

00:41:05.840 Do you remember her, folks?

00:41:07.000 Remember when the Humboldt Broncos tragedy happened?

00:41:10.940 All those lives that were lost, all those people left permanently disabled?

00:41:14.780 And I've got the quote here, Sheila.

00:41:17.260 This is what she tweeted out.

00:41:19.500 I'm trying to not get cynical about what is a totally devastating tragedy.

00:41:24.980 But the maleness, the youthfulness, and the whiteness of the victims are, of course, playing a significant role.

00:41:34.500 End quote.

00:41:35.200 So what?

00:41:35.960 It was a racist, sexist, even ageist quote, when you look at it.

00:41:41.160 And she is suggesting that, basically, if there were more females on this bus, if it was a more diverse bus, if it was an older bus,

00:41:51.140 then there wouldn't have been millions of dollars raised by the GoFundMe account that was started for the Humboldt Broncos.

00:42:01.000 Can you imagine, Sheila Gunn-Reed, that in this day and age, in this cancel culture that we have,

00:42:08.620 Don Cherry, for standing up for the poppy and using the phrase, those people are you people, is made to walk the plank. 0.93

00:42:16.580 But this sick puppy, this racist, sexist woman, on the taxpayer dollar, is invited to give an anti-racism seminar to the rank and file of the Public Service Alliance of Canada. 1.00

00:42:33.820 That is disgusting. 0.99

00:42:35.340 Well, and just imagine how the families of the Humboldt Broncos feel about her being given this opportunity and paid so handsomely. 0.81

00:42:47.540 If there's somebody in this country that deserves cancel culture, it's her. 1.00

00:42:51.220 And yet, she is being redeemed by this public sector union.

00:42:56.580 And look, I believe in redemption.

00:42:58.860 But with redemption comes acknowledgement of the sin and then penance.

00:43:03.300 And she's being redeemed with none of those things.

00:43:07.120 She's just, you know, they're just like, oh yeah, she's this horrible, horrible person who said these things about dead boys on the worst day of these families' lives.

00:43:17.020 Devastated this entire community, the hockey community, and in turn, so many people who feel connected to that in Canada.

00:43:23.580 And here she is, getting paid, no doubt handsomely, by union dues of public sector union employees to have her image rehabbed. 0.60

00:43:34.260 It's revolting, actually.

00:43:36.040 And just, I could go on on this subject forever, because I've got a real hard time with PSAC giving anybody lectures on racism.

00:43:46.440 They support openly, BDS, the boycott, divestment, and sanctions of Israeli companies.

00:43:52.800 They're on a don't buy from Jews campaign. 0.97

00:43:56.980 So that sounds a lot similar to a few things that have happened historically, I would say.

00:44:02.540 And yet, they're out there lecturing other people on racism.

00:44:06.240 Give me a break.

00:44:08.360 And, you know, this all, as everything tends to do, it sort of flows over into Alberta.

00:44:15.520 Because last week, Premier Jason Kenney introduced a law that would allow union members to opt out of political activities from their unions.

00:44:29.720 So your union dues cannot be used to fund political activities that you disagree with.

00:44:34.520 I mean, if you're going to mandate these poor souls into joining a union when they don't want to, that's bad enough.

00:44:41.100 But it is even worse that their union dues are used to fund political activities.

00:44:45.140 So blue-collar pipeline workers who vote Jason Kenney and have an F. Trudeau sticker on their truck,

00:44:51.600 their union dues right now can go to support Rachel Notley or an anti-oil campaign or Nora Loretto.

00:45:00.520 Jason Kenney's trying to change that.

00:45:02.380 And the unions are absolutely beside themselves.

00:45:06.240 Because for them, they want to force Jewish union members into supporting BDS campaigns against Israeli companies.

00:45:17.140 And it's the right thing to do to stop this.

00:45:20.500 It is freedom of association.

00:45:22.780 Yeah, it's amazing, Sheila, that, you know, much like we said how the feminists have thrown women under the bus 1.00

00:45:27.580 in terms of their aspirations for political correctness.

00:45:31.160 Unions that represent, you know, the lunch bucket brigade, the blue-collar hardhat guys,

00:45:36.360 they've thrown them under the bus by embracing, you know, social justice campaigns like global warming and anti-carbon.

00:45:43.560 They don't even know who their own audiences are.

00:45:47.840 One last note about Nora Loretto.

00:45:50.480 You and I, we believe in free speech, even if it's odious free speech.

00:45:55.920 My line in the sand, as I've always said,

00:45:57.920 you cannot use your pulpit to advocate violence or death against an individual or a group.

00:46:05.100 Other than that, everything goes.

00:46:07.280 Here's the thing with Loretto.

00:46:09.220 You can say all these odious, disgusting, egregious things you want on Twitter.

00:46:14.360 Don't pay her with my tax dollars.

00:46:18.760 Do it on your own coin.

00:46:20.420 That's my issue here with this Public Servants Alliance of Canada giving her a speaking gig. 1.00

00:46:27.920 And, of course, Mr. Producer is screaming in my earpiece about the super chats.

00:46:33.220 Yes, we'll get there.

00:46:34.420 Julian Borges gives us $2 Canadian.

00:46:38.900 What are your favorite prime ministers and why?

00:46:43.200 I'm a big fan of Deef the Chief.

00:46:46.240 Deef and Baker, Western prime minister at a time when there were no Western prime ministers.

00:46:53.120 I also admire his extension of the rights we all enjoy to Canada's Indigenous people.

00:47:02.140 That was a real game changer, and it was reflective of the Conservatives' ongoing commitment to human rights and equality.

00:47:10.180 For some reason, the Liberals get credit for much of that, but it was us.

00:47:13.800 It was always us.

00:47:15.100 You know, and there's a great clip, if you Google it, of Deef and Baker reacting to Paul Henderson's winning goal in the 72nd Summit Series.

00:47:23.700 I mean, because he was a very non-excitable man, but I won't say anything more.

00:47:30.760 You've got to watch that.

00:47:31.540 I would say, in my life, if I had to pick a prime minister I most admire, I'm going with Stephen Harper, Sheila.

00:47:38.120 You know, I miss him dearly, and I think I speak for so many, especially those who support the Conservative Party, post-Andrew Scheer and post-God-knows-who, who will be probably emulating Andrew Scheer.

00:47:54.700 Wow.

00:47:55.540 Stephen, please, come back.

00:47:58.360 Come back.

00:47:59.220 Well, my favorite prime minister is also Stephen Harper's favorite prime minister.

00:48:04.620 I think there was an interview once where he said he sort of tailored his prime ministership after Deef and Baker.

00:48:10.680 Yeah.

00:48:10.840 Just that slow and steady wins the race commitment to equality and human rights, both at home and around the world, and just that steady hand that Stephen Harper has sort of tipped his hat to Deef and Baker.

00:48:27.000 And a very underrated prime minister for the cultural changes with regard to how we treat Canada's Indigenous people.

00:48:38.180 Very underrated for what he was able to do and convince Canadians of in a time that you would think it wouldn't have been all that popular.

00:48:47.620 Yeah.

00:48:49.440 Luigi Grimaldi gives a $6.99.

00:48:52.660 I commend all the journalists at The Rebel for going into the eye of the storm and risking your body to report the news to us.

00:48:59.540 God bless you all.

00:49:00.740 Well, thank you very much.

00:49:02.100 Like I said earlier, you've got to go where the news is, and sometimes that's not safe, as David well knows.

00:49:06.720 To be honest, it's only because we can't afford one of those telephoto zoom lenses.

00:49:11.260 We have to go right in.

00:49:13.360 Just kidding.

00:49:15.140 We normally just use our cell phones, so it's true.

00:49:17.500 Mr. Producer said that was hilarious, but I think he's being facetious.

00:49:23.940 We use our cell phones, they're as good as anything.

00:49:25.880 Look, I've seen how CBC rolls.

00:49:27.580 When I was at the election night in Regina in just a few months ago, CBC, I think, had eight trucks, like eight trucks, satellite trucks.

00:49:43.020 And God only knows what those things cost for a satellite hookup.

00:49:45.580 I think it's something obscene.

00:49:46.720 Maybe Justin knows.

00:49:47.560 And I just showed up with my, like, camera on a tripod, like my little, like, studio camera, and my microphone and my computer to make it talk to the office.

00:50:00.340 And that was it.

00:50:01.240 Like, I think, you know, all in, maybe like 100, 200 bucks to, like, get a couple of adapters.

00:50:07.640 And we had, when we do live stream coverage, like, especially for the Alberta election, we had more people watching our live stream on YouTube than CBC had at one point.

00:50:18.340 And they do it with $1.5 billion, and we do it on next to nothing.

00:50:21.700 So, yeah, we don't have telephoto lenses because we don't need them.

00:50:24.600 We're not wasting anybody's money on that.

00:50:26.800 David G. gives us $10 and said, I was listening to Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch.

00:50:33.760 They do great work.

00:50:34.560 So talking about voter fraud, and now I wonder, what about Canada?

00:50:38.080 Any evidence of voter fraud here?

00:50:40.160 Also, are there any Canadian Judicial Watch?

00:50:42.940 I do my best to sort of emulate some of the work they do at Judicial Watch through constant access to information and freedom of information because that's primarily what they do.

00:50:52.600 Now, they focus a lot on the courts.

00:50:55.400 I focus more on government accountability.

00:50:58.000 But with regard to voter fraud, there were a lot of fake voters on the last voter roll, and that sort of came out in, I believe, an access to information investigation done by Blacklock's reporter, I want to say, who also do a lot of similar work to Judicial Watch.

00:51:16.600 And they have a subscription model if you want to support them, because they do a lot of the work that the mainstream media just refuses to do.

00:51:27.580 Kane Enmark gives us $2.

00:51:29.520 Kane, you're late getting around to super chatting us.

00:51:32.440 This American is a hottie. 1.00

00:51:34.040 Are you talking about Drea?

00:51:35.300 Because she's in the lower mainland of B.C.

00:51:38.540 She's as Canadian as they come. 1.00

00:51:41.000 Vito Anthony D. gives us $2. 0.99

00:51:42.600 Here, take my cash, you two sexy devils. 1.00

00:51:47.220 Thank you, Vito Anthony D. 0.94

00:51:49.800 MVP, $6 Canadian.

00:51:51.540 I look forward to more news segments from Drea.

00:51:54.180 I do, too.

00:51:54.680 She's working on something kind of special today.

00:51:57.420 A very lower mainland story that has a lot to do with all of Canada.

00:52:01.640 So she's really got an eye for the things that we like to talk about here at Rebel News.

00:52:08.060 Connie McDonald gives us $10.

00:52:10.380 Says, great reporting, Rebel News.

00:52:11.660 Please say hello to a new viewer, my Aunt May.

00:52:14.580 Hi, Aunt May.

00:52:15.940 Connie, good job bringing the news of Rebel News to your friends and family.

00:52:21.240 Thank you for that evangelization of us.

00:52:24.620 Wasn't that the name of Peter Parker's Aunt, Aunt May?

00:52:27.760 You know, the guy that was Spider-Man?

00:52:30.240 I'm sure it was Aunt May.

00:52:32.780 Fake Deborah Harry is nodding yes.

00:52:35.060 And she goes to these cosplay things, so she knows.

00:52:37.380 That's true.

00:52:38.960 She's a pretty nerd. 1.00

00:52:41.660 Wendy's Cafe gives us $5.

00:52:44.380 Hi, Sheila and David.

00:52:45.140 Can you give an update to Butts Nasty Tweet regarding the U.S. racist map?

00:52:49.680 I can.

00:52:50.340 I emailed everybody.

00:52:51.580 I emailed everybody I could.

00:52:52.920 I emailed Eurasia Group.

00:52:54.100 I emailed the Canadian government.

00:52:55.840 And I emailed the Alberta government, who also had an existing contract with Eurasia Group.

00:52:59.940 And nobody got back to me.

00:53:02.160 So that's, you know, but this is how the left is really good at combating cancel culture, and the right is really not.

00:53:09.940 Because if that person were on the right, like, let's say this was a chief advisor to Stephen Harper, and he sent that.

00:53:17.840 He would be wandering in the wilderness alone for the rest of his career, and he would have been denounced by every conservative who ever had been in a photo with him or standing across the room from him in the last 20 years.

00:53:34.240 But because he's on the left, everybody just shuts their mouth and continues on.

00:53:41.060 It's happening right now in Alberta.

00:53:42.980 I think he is doing a story on this today.

00:53:44.700 Anyway, the head of the Alberta Federation of Labor, Gil McGowan, he tweeted out yesterday comparing that law I told you about, the one where Jason Kenney, it's basically a campaign finance law where unions will not be able to use forced union dues for political purposes.

00:54:07.280 Right.

00:54:07.680 It's freedom, right?

00:54:08.380 He basically compared the UCP, the United Conservatives, to Nazis over that.

00:54:16.680 Again, pretty rich coming from the party of BDS.

00:54:20.220 He's a board member, I think, or a governor's member.

00:54:24.660 The AFL is basically a voting member of the NDP in Alberta.

00:54:29.600 So however that's structured, I forget the exact way that that's structured.

00:54:33.280 So, I mean, not only is he affiliated with the NDP, he is the NDP.

00:54:39.760 And yet, nobody's talking about it except us.

00:54:43.620 Kian is probably going to be the only journalist outside of me in Alberta who won't shut up about this. 1.00

00:54:49.800 Because it's gross.

00:54:50.900 And if a conservative had done that, we would have rightfully accused him of minimizing the Holocaust.

00:54:55.980 Campaign finance reform is definitely not the same as killing six million people because you deem them to be unworthy of life.

00:55:06.380 But this is where this guy is.

00:55:08.240 He's basically lumping every conservative in with the Nazi party, which only does favors for the real handful of six or seven Nazis that exist in Canada.

00:55:17.960 Because now you've normalized them. 0.62

00:55:19.980 Now you've diminished the fact that they are the most evil creatures to walk the face of the earth.

00:55:25.560 Good job.

00:55:26.960 Well, like we said earlier, Sheila, Don Cherry gets cancelled.

00:55:30.300 Laura Loretto gets taxpayer-funded speaking gigs at a public service union.

00:55:34.980 That's how we roll in Canada right now.

00:55:37.240 Yeah, I checked the social skill on the air, too.

00:55:39.580 So, I mean...

00:55:40.640 Oh, boy.

00:55:41.660 Who watches that? 0.58

00:55:43.460 Not that you know, because I don't think anybody watches it.

00:55:46.340 You have to physically go and check to make sure it's still on the air because nobody watches it.

00:55:52.820 But I think it's people who are, like, held captive in nail salons.

00:55:56.000 Like, you're sitting there and they're working on your nails.

00:55:58.060 And it's on in the background.

00:55:59.560 And it's like, oh, my God.

00:56:01.420 I have to watch this.

00:56:02.880 It's like how CNN is always on in the airport.

00:56:06.580 And the CTV News channel is always on in the doctor's office.

00:56:11.800 It's the same thing.

00:56:12.700 I'd rather have the Cartoon Network on.

00:56:15.480 Wouldn't you, though?

00:56:16.720 Okay.

00:56:17.340 John P.

00:56:18.420 He says, 2099 says,

00:56:20.280 It's odd how California Democrats slammed Florida and Texas and Republican-run states.

00:56:25.360 Meanwhile, California wasn't able to contain the virus either.

00:56:29.520 Which virus are we even talking about in California?

00:56:32.900 Because the coronavirus, the plague virus, like, they've got a whole host of problems there.

00:56:39.300 Flesh-eating disease in their homeless encampments.

00:56:42.060 So, yeah.

00:56:43.340 While these other states are dealing with, you know, just the coronavirus the way everybody else is, California's got some medieval disease problems rearing its ugly head.

00:56:57.780 Because they are just allowing homeless encampments wherever, because somehow that's social justice.

00:57:04.960 Travis Coulson gives us $13.99.

00:57:09.340 My hometown of Orillia, Ontario, has enforced anyone who is not a resident wanting to visit our parks a $50 a day parking fee.

00:57:19.220 Is this happening in other municipalities?

00:57:21.880 I had no idea.

00:57:23.800 Like, you know, as we said earlier, a little taste of totalitarianism, and it tastes real good, and now they're monetizing it.

00:57:34.100 I mean, as a member of this province, as a member of this country, how is there this, you know, system of parking apartheid?

00:57:43.380 If you're from out of town, you pay an egregious premium?

00:57:49.100 That is outrageous.

00:57:50.280 And you know what?

00:57:51.100 I wouldn't be surprised.

00:57:52.640 You know, we should do, we should get one of those tickets and fight it in court, Sheila, because I think it's doomed.

00:57:59.800 I think that is outrageous.

00:58:03.560 I know, like, for example, in, I think it was Revelstoke or Golden, B.C., and someone will correct me on which one it was, but one of the mayors there suggested that Albertans shouldn't come while Albertans spend a lot of money in Golden and Revelstoke, because it's just on the other side of Banff from Alberta.

00:58:22.360 And so a lot of them have vacation properties there, own resorts there, go there to ski, hike, whatever.

00:58:29.800 And suggested that Albertans shouldn't come.

00:58:32.440 And what resulted was a bunch of vehicles from Alberta, with Alberta plates being keyed out there.

00:58:40.200 And so it's, it's, there's a lot of irresponsibility coming from these municipalities.

00:58:46.540 And as you point out, it's totalitarian.

00:58:49.760 I mean, it's the height of tourism season.

00:58:53.040 Alberta's got our act under control when it comes to the coronavirus.

00:58:58.860 Why wouldn't you want us to come spend our money on the other side of Banff National Park?

00:59:03.940 I mean.

00:59:05.620 And Sheila, for Orillia, which is home to Casino-rama, that when casinos were allowed to operate, acres of free parking, come, you know, spend your money at the casino, get cleaned out.

00:59:18.080 And now it's a $50 surcharge.

00:59:20.240 Give me a break.

00:59:21.780 Yep.

00:59:21.980 Lots of superchats, I'm afraid.

00:59:24.220 Lots.

00:59:24.680 I know, and we're running out of time.

00:59:26.000 Wendy's Cafe gives us $5 Canadian.

00:59:27.920 Did you know that Wexit is now called Wildrose Independence Party?

00:59:31.180 There was a vote last month to join the two separatist parties.

00:59:34.500 Yes, it's true.

00:59:35.200 And it's run by Jay Hill, who is a very reputable former Conservative MP.

00:59:41.960 So, let's see what direction that goes.

00:59:45.400 The problem was they didn't have a leader who would look into the constitutional issues, and Jay Hill might be that guy.

00:59:52.120 Although he's just the interim leader, and he said he just wants to be the interim leader.

00:59:56.280 So, hopefully he's actively recruiting people to run for a real leadership race.

01:00:01.380 Judah Bercy, or Yuda Bercy, gives us $13.99.

01:00:04.640 Says she's our number one fan.

01:00:06.400 Thank you very much.

01:00:07.260 Julian Borges, best Canadian song.

01:00:09.740 Wheat Kings by The Hip ranks high, but 2112 and The Trees by Rush are simply prophetic.

01:00:18.880 Joni and Bruce Coburn also come to mind.

01:00:22.640 Viking Insane gives us $5.

01:00:24.640 I think it's time to remove the Queen from our money.

01:00:27.700 Prince Andrew disgusts me.

01:00:29.180 It's a better argument than the one to remove John A.

01:00:32.120 I'm not going to hold the Queen responsible for Prince Andrew.

01:00:35.320 I think the Queen has been distinguished and dignified and has served her country well.

01:00:42.460 Her son, like most families, they all have that one kid.

01:00:47.000 He's that one kid.

01:00:48.200 I think, actually, I think, unfortunately for the Queen, she has two of those kids.

01:00:51.600 Poor Queen. 1.00

01:00:53.180 Yeah, but she has one grandson who's really, I think, will probably at least save the monarchy,

01:00:58.460 him and his lovely wife, but not the one that moved to America.

01:01:01.320 Yeah.

01:01:02.040 When Lisa Faye gives us $10 Canadian.

01:01:06.880 For you, Sheila, I detest the Beatles.

01:01:08.600 Thank you.

01:01:10.540 And everything they stand for, past and present.

01:01:13.560 Yes.

01:01:14.180 Yes.

01:01:14.680 You know what?

01:01:15.240 I know it's an unpopular opinion, but you know what?

01:01:17.580 I've got to be honest with the people.

01:01:19.020 And Elisa S. gives us $13.99.

01:01:21.860 Drea is beautiful and she did an awesome job. 0.99

01:01:24.300 Rebel rocks.

01:01:24.920 Yes, I think, hopefully, Drea, she obviously hit the ground running. 0.88

01:01:30.460 Let's keep a good thing going here.

01:01:32.800 Hilary Waugh gives us $2.

01:01:34.920 Is there any ties between Trudeau and Maxwell?

01:01:38.740 Ghislaine Maxwell?

01:01:39.700 I don't know.

01:01:40.280 I wouldn't be surprised, but I haven't seen anything.

01:01:43.220 I'm a terrible conspiracy theorist and I'm going to spend most of this evening now.

01:01:49.700 But I haven't seen anything yet.

01:01:53.480 Mike Seguin gives us $13.99. 0.97

01:01:55.900 Paul stinks.

01:01:56.920 But the Beatles were a fantastic band. 0.90

01:01:58.580 They started the hippie revolution.

01:02:00.180 That's my problem with them right there.

01:02:02.560 Well, in the beginning, wait a second, they were very clean cut.

01:02:06.520 They were wearing suits, you know?

01:02:08.900 So.

01:02:09.460 Yeah.

01:02:10.540 Yeah.

01:02:10.960 And then they brought yoga over and just don't even get me started.

01:02:16.700 John P. gives us $20.99.

01:02:19.780 Can y'all attempt to do more coverage for Niagara area?

01:02:22.420 It would put pressure on politicians here.

01:02:26.260 David is but one man, but he does an incredible job covering the issues there.

01:02:31.600 Proud Boys Edmonton gives us $5 Canadian.

01:02:33.540 We don't need 150 characters to prove communism wrong.

01:02:36.640 Proud Boys.

01:02:37.240 Yeg at gmail.com.

01:02:39.800 Those Proud Boys, you know, they're very good with their marketing dollars.

01:02:43.880 Just $5 here, $5 there.

01:02:45.700 Get a few new signups.

01:02:46.760 Very smart.

01:02:47.360 Julian Borges, $5 Canadian.

01:02:50.460 The Beatles did spur the age of postmodernism.

01:02:53.520 Again, exactly why I don't like them.

01:02:55.600 But they remain important because, oh, well, they captured the zeitgeist, which is pretty significant.

01:03:01.700 David ends $20.

01:03:04.700 Thank you very much.

01:03:05.740 Just finished the Libranos last night.

01:03:07.500 What a great book. 1.00

01:03:08.220 I knew the liberals were dirty, but wow, they are as corrupt as Mexico. 1.00

01:03:16.280 That's pretty corrupt. 1.00

01:03:18.180 Yeah, well, I'm about to start reading China virus.

01:03:22.740 Sorry.

01:03:23.600 Looking forward to it.

01:03:25.380 Keep it up.

01:03:26.060 Rebels.

01:03:26.420 Wendy's Cafe gives us $5.

01:03:27.780 I swear to God, the whole world has walked through the Twilight Zone door, and now we're living in an alternative reality.

01:03:33.980 Julian Borges gives us $10.

01:03:35.340 Everyone should study the 60s, modern history's defining moment, in my opinion.

01:03:41.240 New Age philosophy, the sexual revolution, identity politics, rock and roll, was the birth of the modern age, for better or for worse.

01:03:47.380 I would say for worse.

01:03:48.480 And there are a lot of parallels.

01:03:49.860 I was thinking about this last night.

01:03:51.020 A lot of parallels between the 60s and now, including hippies trying to start a race war like Charles Manson did.

01:03:59.160 Brown Boys. 0.58

01:04:00.460 Edmonton, $5 Canadian.

01:04:01.860 We've been protecting people like Ezra's right to speak freely since 2016.

01:04:05.840 Proudboys.

01:04:06.080 Yeah, get gmail.com.

01:04:07.960 Wendy's Cafe, $5 Canadian.

01:04:09.620 Speaking of cancel culture, did you read the article that Guy wrote about crossing signs being racist because the walk signal is a white person?

01:04:17.820 I have not read that.

01:04:18.940 However, that makes perfect sense because apparently driving on a street painted a rainbow is also a hate crime. 0.82

01:04:27.220 Oh, yeah.

01:04:28.120 I don't know.

01:04:28.720 You know.

01:04:29.620 I saw that.

01:04:30.920 What do you think the road is for?

01:04:33.340 Julian Borges, $5 Canadian.

01:04:36.000 What better way to respect minorities than to hold them to lesser standards, i.e. they can't be racist.

01:04:40.520 Am I right?

01:04:40.860 Yeah, I mean, it's very paternalistic to have lower standards for certain people, I think.

01:04:45.700 We're all humans, all capable of all things and created in God's image.

01:04:52.160 And so we're all worthy and capable.

01:04:55.260 Lisa A, $6.99.

01:04:57.120 If one can self-identify gender, then why not race to opt out of racism training?

01:05:01.400 Use lefty logic.

01:05:03.160 Very clever.

01:05:04.440 Very clever.

01:05:05.580 Julian Borges, $2.

01:05:07.800 You guys should check out Mark Dice or Dice.

01:05:10.140 I think it's Dice if you haven't.

01:05:11.460 We have.

01:05:12.280 Be good to each other.

01:05:13.300 $2 Canadian.

01:05:14.100 Keep up the great work, guys.

01:05:15.060 Thank you.

01:05:15.480 We will.

01:05:15.860 Cain and Mark, that black guy.

01:05:17.740 Oh, the one that Drea interviewed.

01:05:19.320 Yeah, he was great.

01:05:20.320 Meredith McDonald, $5 Canadian.

01:05:22.020 Looking forward to meeting Sheila and the boss on the 21st.

01:05:24.840 We'll see you in Sherwood Park.

01:05:26.420 By the way, that restaurant is already being targeted by the hate mob.

01:05:32.300 Wow.

01:05:32.900 Already.

01:05:33.480 Luckily, they're pretty mob resilient and they knew what they were getting into.

01:05:38.600 And they know that a bunch of people with veganism signs and Black Lives Matter in their profile pictures are probably not their patrons anyway, since they have an incredible beef rib buffet.

01:05:53.860 Tell them, tell those types to go to Toronto and eat at food benders. 0.99

01:05:59.700 That's their kind of joint.

01:06:01.720 Exactly.

01:06:02.380 And I mean, at the end of the day, I don't care if a restaurant conforms to my political ideology.

01:06:08.080 I don't want to know if the restaurant has a political ideology, as is the case with food benders. 1.00

01:06:13.660 I just want to be able to get food and not make everything political, except when it comes to the Beatles.

01:06:19.140 And so, yeah, I mean, this poor restaurant and let me say something else.

01:06:25.800 And I know we're way over time, Justin.

01:06:27.460 I'm really sorry.

01:06:28.220 These cancel culture mobs who are going after this restaurant for hosting us in Sherwood Park, just on the other side of the highway from Edmonton, they don't know what our booking might mean to this restaurant.

01:06:38.740 This restaurant has been locked down for at least three months.

01:06:42.920 They're able to open.

01:06:44.260 They're able to host us.

01:06:45.440 They're a family trying to provide for themselves and keep their employees employed with them.

01:06:52.480 So a massive booking from us makes a hell of a lot of difference for them.

01:06:56.580 And these people who would never patronize them anyways want to cancel us, and they don't know the impact that it would have on this business.

01:07:03.660 So they should mind their own business.

01:07:06.380 Anyways, Denny Brower gives us $2 Canadian.

01:07:11.300 What do you think the IQ of Trudeau is?

01:07:13.780 Weed equals bad.

01:07:14.860 Well, the weed is not helping his IQ.

01:07:17.260 Lucas Taylor gives us $5 New Zealand cash.

01:07:21.040 Hi, David and Sheila.

01:07:21.820 Quick question.

01:07:22.880 What do you think know of the QAnon movement?

01:07:25.540 If not, here's an article.

01:07:26.700 Much love from New Zealand.

01:07:28.200 You know what?

01:07:28.680 I'm so full of conspiracy theories, I haven't even gone down the QAnon rabbit hole. 0.98

01:07:34.020 I'm very sorry.

01:07:34.600 I know a lot of people have, but that's not.

01:07:36.080 I just, there are too many conspiracy facts for me to chase down.

01:07:40.940 Proud Boys Edmonton, $5 Canadian.

01:07:42.680 If you already knew that machine guns have been banned for 60 years, then you're the kind of man we're looking for.

01:07:47.360 Proud Boys, yeah, get gmail.com.

01:07:49.680 Yeah, there was a big shooting over the weekend in Toronto again, which is crazy because Trudeau banned all the guns and the good ones twice.

01:07:56.080 So, I don't know.

01:07:57.140 Must be fake news.

01:07:58.560 Be good to each other.

01:07:59.940 Give us a dollar.

01:08:01.140 Thank you very much.

01:08:02.240 Wendy's Cafe, $5 Canadian.

01:08:04.480 I'm 61 and I'm going to start self-identifying as 21 again.

01:08:08.140 Do we get to rock, do we get to roll back our broken bodies along with our age?

01:08:14.760 You know what?

01:08:15.460 If Jonathan Yanniv can be a girl, you can be anything you put your mind to.

01:08:19.740 And that's it.

01:08:21.260 And it is seven minutes past the hour.

01:08:23.360 And very quickly, with favorite cars, Sheila, we got the AMC Pacer.

01:08:27.620 Good choice.

01:08:28.540 Anything made by AMC is retro cool.

01:08:31.500 These are so-called nerd cars.

01:08:33.280 But they did make, in the 70s, a muscle car called the Rebel.

01:08:38.040 So, there you go.

01:08:39.400 I'm not sure there's any left on the road that haven't rusted out.

01:08:42.620 Corvette C7, great choice because the C8, no manual transmission.

01:08:47.700 So, if I could afford a Corvette, I'm not buying the new generation one.

01:08:51.780 And there's so many more, but Mr. Producer says we got to go.

01:08:56.040 Wait, one more.

01:08:57.360 The AMC Eagle 4x4 wagon.

01:09:00.740 It was ahead of its time.

01:09:02.620 It started the-

01:09:03.500 That's my dream car, wood panel, beautiful, light truck tires.

01:09:07.140 It's what I want.

01:09:08.560 Bury me in it.

01:09:09.560 It was a four-wheel drive SUV before that became cool in the 90s.

01:09:13.820 So, there you go.

01:09:14.940 On behalf of Mr. Producer, Fake Deborah Harry, Sheila Gunn-Reed, who is presumably going to 0.67

01:09:19.940 play some Beach Boys albums right now, and myself, David Menzies, thank you so much for

01:09:24.700 tuning in.

01:09:25.360 Thank you, especially to those who did the Super Chats.

01:09:28.000 And we'll do it all again right here on Thursday, noon Eastern.

01:09:32.260 Good day.
