Rebel News Podcast - DAILY ｜ Musk's about to buy Twitter; Trudeau keeps being weird; Calgary mayor's hypocrisy

00:00:00.000 Hey, good afternoon. Good morning, everybody. Adam, how's it going? I'm your host of the

00:00:20.440 live stream today, or at least your co-host. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed. This is the Rebel News

00:00:24.140 daily live stream, and that is my friend in Calgary, Adam Sos. Adam, once again, how's

00:00:28.480 it going? Oh, it's going great. No complaints whatsoever. How about yourself? I'm doing

00:00:33.820 great. I had not seen the new COVID warning on the front of the live stream before, and

00:00:39.160 it's eerie and creepy and perfect. The other one was obnoxious because we were fighting

00:00:45.180 back against the obnoxiousness of YouTube making us put these warnings on stuff, but that other

00:00:49.760 one is eerie and weird. I like it. I really like it. I like it, too, and it's a little

00:00:55.100 less jarring. The other thing was kind of an alarm clock that I'm about to get to talk

00:00:59.700 with everybody on the live stream, but this is a little more chill. I appreciate that.

00:01:04.940 Are those new glasses, Sheila? No, I have a desk full of glasses that I never wear, and

00:01:11.160 so I always just grab the first one that's on the top of the pile before I start, but

00:01:15.200 then I was like, you know what? I have all these other glasses that I'm not sure if I

00:01:18.720 like them or not, so I'll wear them and I'll figure it out. They look great. Thank you for

00:01:22.480 noticing. Oh, thanks. There's so much to talk about. Normally, everybody at home, we

00:01:28.680 do prepare for these streams, and we do have a little meeting before we go live, but there

00:01:34.020 is just so much to talk about, and I try to get to everything that is in the YouTube

00:01:41.000 headline, because if we don't, then I get emails, and I really want to talk about how

00:01:47.240 Trudeau keeps being weird. So before we get to that, I should tell everybody what we're

00:01:51.620 doing without going into too much detail, because we get emails about that too. So

00:01:55.720 this is the Rebel News Daily Livestream. Adam and I are hosting today, but it gives you

00:02:01.480 an opportunity to support the work that we do completely willingly if you are avoiding

00:02:05.660 the censorship of YouTube, and I'll get to that in a second. So we stream on YouTube,

00:02:09.520 but as I sort of alluded to when I remarked about our COVID warning, there are certain things

00:02:14.280 on YouTube that we can't talk about. So if we get into, like, the red zone, we might

00:02:19.820 have to cut the YouTube feed, but the good news is we're also streaming on other platforms.

00:02:23.880 We're on Getter, but we're also on Rumble, Odyssey, and SuperU. And the beauty of Rumble,

00:02:28.720 Odyssey, and SuperU, besides not caring about our politics, is that they give you the opportunity

00:02:33.400 to support the work that we do. Unlike with the CBC, where Justin Trudeau makes you support

00:02:38.740 them against your will and makes you pay for content, you would never willingly watch.

00:02:44.100 I think you're watching us out of your own free will, and if you feel so inclined to help

00:02:47.580 us keep the lights on, you can do something called a Rumble Rant. That's their paid chat.

00:02:51.920 If you send us one of those, we'll read it on air. An Odyssey hyper chat. There's a couple

00:02:57.160 different ways that you can do that, including using cryptocurrency. And again, that's your

00:03:02.140 paid chat. We'll read it on air. And a SuperU shout. So if you send us one of those, it helps

00:03:08.080 support the work that we do, but it also democratizes the show because it puts you in charge

00:03:12.440 for a minute. And it, you know, it gives us a break from talking about the things that

00:03:17.780 we've decided to talk about. And you can sort of take the show in your own direction. So

00:03:21.320 if you want to do that, that's great. Our producers will send them to us and we'll read

00:03:25.460 them on air. And I think that's all the nuts and bolts out of the way. Let's talk about

00:03:30.880 Justin Trudeau. Adam, you're married. I'm married. I think our respective spouses, yours

00:03:37.120 is lovely, but mine has his own idiosyncrasies, but not quite like the Trudeaus. They're a 1.00

00:03:44.000 weird pair. Am I right?

00:03:46.540 It's just so weird. Like you literally read this message and my immediate response is like,

00:03:52.320 nice. You know, like, I mean, I'm not, I just, I don't hate anyone on a malicious level.

00:03:58.560 So I'm like, Oh, you're sending a nice message. Like there's been some rumors, things are on

00:04:03.120 the rocks, a nice message. But then like the image is just these like swings with masks on in a

00:04:11.240 dungeon. It's absolutely haunting. I, as soon as I saw this and I was like, maybe I shouldn't, but

00:04:16.440 I put it on and I put it on my Twitter. I added like the black mirror logo to the bottom of this

00:04:23.440 image. Cause it just looks like some sort of dystopic, like your children may not be able to

00:04:28.180 go to the park with others, but they can go to the basement swings. Like it's so bizarre and weird.

00:04:33.800 I imagine this is probably one of, there you go. Yeah. The black mirror episode,

00:04:38.540 it looks like one. I imagine this might be one of those like selfie type places where you go and do

00:04:45.200 this, but it just like, why do they always have a photographer? Like my wife and I don't have a

00:04:51.640 photographer following us around. Why not have like a nice, wholesome family picture or something

00:04:56.980 sensible. This is like framed like a Wes Anderson film. It's the most inorganic, like, like laid out

00:05:05.000 weird thing. I don't know. Yeah. I just look at this and it's just a real feast for the eyes and I

00:05:13.020 can't process it all at once. Like, I don't know if this is a sex dungeon or what I I'm too far into 0.52

00:05:22.000 serial killers for my own good. So that's like immediately where my head went. Is this a dungeon? 0.92

00:05:28.380 What is this? Why are they married? Are they holding hands there? I can't remember because I was too

00:05:34.860 distracted by everything else. Like the paint on the walls. They're holding hands. Yeah. Let's check.

00:05:41.020 Okay. They are. Yeah. They're holding hands, but they're wearing masks. Yeah. Married to each other.

00:05:48.120 So they would have us believe they live in the same house, although I'm willing to hear arguments for

00:05:52.380 and against that inference. They're both, I think, immune. So they're both like double or triple

00:06:01.240 vaccinated, but they're both also immune. Like they have natural immunity because you think they both

00:06:07.720 got COVID. And why is she wearing high heels on a swing set? There's just so much here. I can't,

00:06:15.560 I don't understand it. Yeah. I, it's so weird. And I mean, again,

00:06:20.280 the only way that this makes sense is, and I'm trying to give this, this is me giving Justin

00:06:26.400 Trudeau as much credit as I can. They were on a date at like a museum or a selfie place that has a

00:06:32.360 mask policy. Um, and that kind, and therefore heels make sense. And, but then like, you don't pick 0.99

00:06:40.340 this picture as your intimate anniversary or whatever picture, like, you're like, I definitely

00:06:44.920 want the one where her face is entirely covered and you can't tell who it is really. Yeah. Yeah.

00:06:51.040 Yeah. Let's remember this forever, honey. Like, it's just, I don't know. I just like, get your kids,

00:06:56.820 stand in front of a tree, take a picture, be normal. Why can't these people just be normal?

00:07:03.340 I don't understand. Yeah. None of their pictures. It's like, you look at Catherine McKinney,

00:07:07.900 you look at any of these other people, none of them posts like normal pictures that people post

00:07:12.000 like, Hey, can you take this picture or like a selfie or those types of things? Like none of them

00:07:16.900 do this. It's always like this lit produced ridiculous fanfare with no sort of organic homey 0.63

00:07:23.920 feel to it. I think the same person would have posted a picture of the family. Yeah. Picture the

00:07:29.960 family or an intimate moment or like wedding day photo. Nope. Yeah. Black mirror swings.

00:07:38.360 And then I can't, I can't wait for the conspiracies though. Cause someone is going to say it's

00:07:42.620 Photoshop. I can't wait for someone to do analysis that they weren't actually in the same room and

00:07:47.120 the hands don't. I wouldn't be surprised. That would not be any weirder than this photo.

00:07:54.280 It's no, it wouldn't be any weirder. It would be just about right. Uh, we should talk about Elon Musk.

00:07:59.360 Yeah. Uh, sounds like the Twitter, uh, board is reconsidering his offer. I think it's 56 bucks a

00:08:07.280 share or something like that. Uh, they are now reconsidering his hostile takeover. Um, which is

00:08:14.180 great. And again, I reiterate my position. I don't care if Twitter survives. Um, and I don't care if

00:08:20.400 Elon Musk makes it fun again, but it cannot continue the way it is. So if they want to resist him and he

00:08:26.160 destroys it, if he buys it and throws it in the garbage can, because he's a crazy billionaire, 0.98

00:08:30.820 also fine. I don't care, but boy, I'm sure if he invites Donald Trump back. 0.99

00:08:39.360 Yeah. It's going to be great. The, uh, the, it was interesting. The whole, like, I think it was

00:08:43.640 Goldman Sachs doing, they hired them to say that 54, 60 or 54, 20, whatever it was, uh, 420 is probably

00:08:51.000 in there somewhere if it's Elon Musk. Um, but if, if they, they, they hired them to say that these

00:08:56.980 shares weren't, it wasn't a valid price for the shares and there's growth and all this stuff.

00:09:01.140 And he just tweeted a very recent document where they said there were 30 bucks and that would be

00:09:05.960 a good bid. Um, this is very much has all the earmarks of the liberals on Keystone XL right now,

00:09:11.180 where the board is like, wait a minute, like there's not really a rational justification for this.

00:09:16.000 And I think more than the whole Twitter thing itself as a public square, I think what this has

00:09:25.080 done is revealed how ideological the control mechanisms are. Like, this isn't even about

00:09:30.320 Twitter. This is Elon Musk being like, here's twice what your company's worth. And they're like,

00:09:34.820 we don't care. It's the same thing. You look at some of these things. I saw someone tweeting about

00:09:38.200 this on the weekend, like Disney's lost something like $50 billion over their woke activism. And in like

00:09:43.960 a free market or capitalism, the top board members would be like, you're fired. Stop right now. But

00:09:49.040 it's not about money. It's not about activism. And like Elon Musk is one of the first people with

00:09:53.340 enough money to be able to show the world that that's happening as well. Thanks for pulling that

00:09:59.340 up so fast, but they've lost $50 billion in value. Since that began, people are canceling left,

00:10:05.920 right, and center, big drops in their stocks. Um, and similarly with Twitter, this whole thing has just

00:10:11.540 made so utterly apparent. And you can see with like Wall Street, uh, journal posts were there when

00:10:16.580 Bezos bought them, it was all like, this is great. And then when, uh, Musk goes to buy something,

00:10:20.460 because he's not a woke activist, they're like, this is the worst thing ever. And it's like,

00:10:24.080 oligarchs controlling the media. Um, it it's, it's revealed and under and flipped over this, 0.98

00:10:30.180 this rock. And we're seeing everything scurrying around underneath it, uh, in a, in a way we wouldn't

00:10:35.340 have seen if not for Elon Musk and his crazy money. Yeah. I mean, this is the perfect summation of

00:10:42.460 this. The company will neither thrive nor serve this social imperative in its current form.

00:10:51.300 Um, he said that Twitter's current leadership team is incapable of getting the company's stock

00:10:56.040 to his offer price on its own, but stopped short of saying it needs to be replaced. People can make

00:11:01.860 that inference on their own. Um, if you are a shareholder of Twitter and the Twitter board is

00:11:08.780 stonewalling your ability to have a share price that this billionaire is offering you over and above,

00:11:15.520 you should be saber rattling for their firing because that's their only job is to protect your

00:11:19.880 share value and grow the company. And we've seen it become their only job is to keep their job.

00:11:24.640 They don't do much. They get paid their $300,000 a year. So they don't want to see that evaporate.

00:11:29.120 But I think on a fundamental level, like Elon Musk is very sort of interesting. Cause I wouldn't say

00:11:34.260 he's necessarily on side on a lot of issues. He's kind of, he's the joker. He's like, he just wants

00:11:40.220 to watch all burn, but also wants to get to space. Um, so he's very, he's very interesting in that

00:11:44.400 regard, but I think he understands that, that the majority of Twitter is people having angry

00:11:51.220 arguments and that's where its value is. Um, and eradicating half of that conversation is bad for

00:11:56.440 business. So I actually think that this is beyond just a philosophical sentiment. Everyone who's

00:12:02.600 saying they're leaving Twitter are going to be on Twitter and arguing more, more people are joining

00:12:06.280 Twitter. People who've left Twitter are coming back to Twitter to engage in this whole thing.

00:12:10.520 Um, the liberals won't leave just like they didn't leave the United States when Donald Trump won the

00:12:14.320 election and they said they would, they'll be there rallying. They'll throw more funding into

00:12:18.760 activists being on Twitter and you'll just see it probably descent into more madness than there was

00:12:24.440 before. But that's what the public square is meant to be people arguing and, uh, without

00:12:28.600 threatening each other with violence, calling each other nasty names like that. That's what social

00:12:33.440 media generally is. Twitter has tried to eradicate that. They haven't tried to eradicate that to make

00:12:37.520 it a pleasant place. They've done it to have it be a unilateral mentality and suggest falsely to people

00:12:44.380 out there, uh, much like the CBC that they're, Oh, here's the mainstream narrative and no one disagrees

00:12:49.640 with it. Um, Elon Musk is like, no people disagree. So let's have them have a place where they can

00:12:54.020 throw mud and we can make money on it. It's interesting to see the freak out too, where

00:12:59.100 you just see all these people threatening to leave Twitter. If Musk takes it over

00:13:03.540 inconsequential people, but also important people too. And I just think you're threatening me with a

00:13:08.640 good time. Like all I do all day long is mute people screaming at me in my mentions. And that's

00:13:15.320 the point. Screw me all you want. I don't even block these people. I let them see what I'm saying 0.99

00:13:21.720 because I know I am so irritating to them that I take some gratification out of the fact that they

00:13:26.920 can see what I'm saying, but they also know that I don't care. And I don't think I should be punching

00:13:32.380 down at certain people either. Um, but the second that their little safe zone might be interrupted

00:13:40.960 by the ability for other people to have the same, I don't know, I don't want to say rights because it's not

00:13:48.420 rights on a platform, but the same access to a platform that you do, they have a conniption.

00:13:55.080 Well, and like, I think that there is actually a philosophical sort of conversation to be had.

00:14:01.200 Uh, there's a distinction between like, let's say a utility company and something that has become a

00:14:06.820 de facto, um, like public square. Uh, and like during the drilling, the early onset of sort of

00:14:13.940 aqueducts, it was a very sort of privatized, very elite rich few could have it. Now we're like,

00:14:18.580 oh, well, that's a utility. Everyone has access to. I think we're in that sort of threshold within

00:14:22.780 technology where some of these platforms start to be considered sort of utility based and the city

00:14:28.620 can't be like, oh, well, because of your political views, we're turning off your water now is,

00:14:32.580 is an opinion as valid as, or as vital as water to banking. You can't have access to banking because

00:14:38.520 of your political views. I think we're there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, um, but I, there is a

00:14:43.840 conversation I think to be had as to, to what extent that needs to be, uh, like permitted or an upheld

00:14:49.420 even within private companies. Cause they're the fact of the matter is, is there are laws that are

00:14:53.500 in place that hold private companies accountable. They can't do whatever they want. You can't be

00:14:57.300 overtly racist. You can't be shutting people's water off. Well, you, you couldn't, or they're banking off

00:15:02.220 because of political opinions, as long as they weren't, uh, malicious. Well, hey, that changed.

00:15:06.020 So we're on that slippery slope. So. Yeah. I, I think it's, uh, it takes us into the Florida

00:15:12.180 conversation. Um, you know, if you want to be treated as a utility or as your own governing city

00:15:22.200 state as Disney, uh, world has been, then if you want to those, the, the privileges that come

00:15:31.160 with the distinction, then you have to operate a certain way. And I think that's, that's where

00:15:35.480 we're at with a lot of these social media companies. If you are acting as a utility,

00:15:39.640 then you have to treat people as though you were a utility. You can't have it both ways.

00:15:44.500 Like with Disney world, all that happened to Disney world is thanks to governor Ron DeSantis

00:15:51.780 is that they are treated like everybody else, every other company operating within the state

00:15:57.420 of Florida and you have lefties screaming that, you know, the, the lefties who used to cry about,

00:16:03.060 um, you know, maybe big businesses should pay their fair share of taxes. Disney world's gonna,

00:16:09.300 so settle down. They're going to have to now, but they're having a conniption. It's very weird to see

00:16:14.740 lefties, uh, arguing for big pharma for big business to have tax breaks. It's weird, right?

00:16:21.440 That was the next point I was going to make. And you were, you, you segued into it perfectly

00:16:24.880 and we'll talk about DeSantis and we'll show that Florida clip shortly. But the thing that I found

00:16:29.380 absolutely amazing is the like critical leftists who are apprehensive about big pharma or were into

00:16:35.960 organic AKA farmers before hippies came along. Um, but all of these, all of these sort of the things

00:16:42.880 that were maybe semi appealing or interesting about progressives in the left, um, those people are all

00:16:50.940 attending the protests and they're conservatives now. And they're like, ah, the NDP and liberals

00:16:55.420 betrayed us. I guess we'll vote for this guy. And even some of the candidates, we'll talk a little

00:16:59.760 bit later about Joseph for go, but like some of them, some of their talking points, they're very

00:17:04.100 conservative, even socially conservative, fiscally conservative, but then they're like, they go off

00:17:08.220 about like preventative healthcare and organic foods. It's so interesting to see that segment of the

00:17:15.640 progressives leave. Uh, the progressive wing doesn't even seem to be, or the left wing, whatever

00:17:20.000 you want to call them. They don't even really particularly seem to have an identity beyond

00:17:24.320 outrage. Like they're just what, like whatever the government tells me, whatever Netflix and the

00:17:28.920 biggest corporations tell me, um, that plus like a sprinkle of outrage, that's our identity. There's,

00:17:34.420 it's hard to find a unifying factor among them because they're so fluid. Um, there's, there's no core

00:17:40.380 principles there really anymore. The people with principles on the left come to the right and they're

00:17:45.200 trying to have the right espouse some of their principles. Some of them aren't necessarily in

00:17:49.100 conflict either. Yeah. It's weird. It's the, I think the ethos of the left now is the, everything,

00:17:56.780 the government should control it and pay for it. And if you hurt my feelings, I want the government

00:18:05.020 to drop the hammer on you instead of just turning and walking away. Everything requires government

00:18:11.160 control and government funding. It's sickle and hammer. Yeah, exactly. It's the antithesis of

00:18:18.440 freedom, um, with regard to everything. They've ceded control over everything, even their thought and

00:18:24.620 speech to the government in exchange for the government paying for it all. Well, I know, I know

00:18:30.360 intelligent people who are sort of blocked into the left and even on some issues that we can't talk

00:18:38.220 about on YouTube, they're no longer in line with the, with the public officials on those issues.

00:18:44.120 They're staying back in the most extreme strength and position of that argument. I'm, I'm dodging

00:18:49.720 YouTube to the best of my ability here, but, but they're, they're like, like the mainstream has moved

00:18:55.440 away from that. And they're like, no, we're going to stay in this like ideological extreme because

00:18:59.140 they're so contrarian. Like if, if Ron DeSantis or Trump or you or I, or whoever it may be,

00:19:05.220 anyone with a conservative thought espouses a position, uh, JK Rowling, et cetera, they'll just

00:19:11.900 be opposed to it because it can be the most sensible position on earth, but their position

00:19:16.460 is just to be opposed to it. But yeah, I think on a fundamental level, um, all these people coming

00:19:21.160 from countries that they saw communism set in and they saw the sort of warning signs for that.

00:19:25.920 They're like, well, that's what's happening in society now. And then people are like, well, no,

00:19:29.240 no, no, you don't know what you're talking about. I'm like, actually we're pretty privileged.

00:19:31.860 They do know what they're talking about. The people who escaped that. Um, and it is a

00:19:35.540 mountain trend of go along with, and it doesn't even go along with me or respect me. It's go

00:19:40.100 along with the state and respect the state or be canceled. Yeah. You know, and I don't know,

00:19:46.060 maybe, uh, Efron or Olivia can bring it up. I know this is probably a kind of obscure reference,

00:19:51.060 but I, today in response to, I mean, it's just like governor DeSantis threw a rock into a pond

00:19:59.140 and everything is just rippling out from there and exposing people along the way.

00:20:04.840 So I guess maybe we should give some context for people who have just listened to us,

00:20:08.920 have a conversation, but really don't know what we're talking about. So governor DeSantis passed

00:20:12.600 a law. Um, the left calls it the don't say gay law, even though it does, it's not in there at all.

00:20:18.220 It's like a seven page bill, read it. You won't find it in there. Um, but you know, reading a seven

00:20:22.960 page bill feels like a lot of hard work that liberals aren't willing to do. So anyways,

00:20:27.400 he passes a law that says, look, you can't talk to, uh, you know, up to age eight, you can't talk

00:20:35.040 to them about sex and gender. Let them be little kids for a long time. And their parents don't want 0.98

00:20:38.720 you to do this. So they don't care that parents don't want you talking to their kids about what

00:20:45.260 you did with your same sex partner over the weekend. They don't want it. Teach them how to 1.00

00:20:49.520 teach them cursive. You know, if you're so, if you've got that much time on your hands,

00:20:55.120 teach them how to sign your name because kids don't know how to do that anymore. But anyways,

00:20:59.780 it causes outrage. The left puts pressure on Disney who, you know, have a 40 by 40 mile,

00:21:06.960 uh, self-governing zone within the state of Florida. Uh, so Disney comes out against the

00:21:13.260 don't say gay law, which is a pro grooming law. Look, if you want to talk to little kids about sex 0.95

00:21:18.060 and gender against your parents' wishes, 10 years ago, you'd be thrown in jail. Now they want it 0.93

00:21:22.680 codified into law. So Disney comes out and says that they're against, I don't know, DeSantis keep

00:21:31.420 prohibiting people from grooming kids. And so he says, that's fine. Okay. I guess since you're going

00:21:38.060 to spread disinformation about us, um, you get, you lose your privileges. You get to be like

00:21:42.660 everybody else because, uh, there's something a little bit creepy by the way, about a pro family,

00:21:47.720 pro kid, uh, business, big, enormous business with so much of what they do focused at kids

00:21:55.720 being on the side of the groomers here. So good for Ron DeSantis treats them like everybody else.

00:22:02.300 The left rallies on the side of big business. And now, um, people are going through and quitting

00:22:08.760 their jobs from companies that may have donated to DeSantis. So I saw on Twitter, some activist kid

00:22:16.180 or whatever, I guess in his real life, he begs groceries at Publix. Um, and, but he's like a 0.94

00:22:23.780 left-wing activist kid, but he, I guess he doesn't get all the big money that a lot of left-wing

00:22:28.780 activists get and he's still got to have a job. And he's like, I quit my job at Publix after five years,

00:22:34.900 still begging groceries after five years. Okay. You know what? I'm happy. He's got an honest day's

00:22:39.000 work, whatever. But he quit his job because Publix donated to DeSantis. You know, like what is the

00:22:46.900 point here? Well, you, now you're unemployed and you're probably going to apply to the state

00:22:52.960 that you don't like the government of the state for, uh, welfare. Congratulations. Paid for by the

00:23:00.100 way, by big business. Yeah. It's literally, it's just manufactured outrage. Like this thing is

00:23:05.380 absolutely ridiculous. And like you said, not long ago, that would have been unilateral, but 0.96

00:23:09.740 now, now apparently people are okay with grooming. We've seen this and we're going to talk about

00:23:15.340 another story very shortly here about consent, but the, the type of content that is being pushed

00:23:20.940 on kids. There's been all these videos on social media of people being like, well, I can't tell my

00:23:25.000 elementary school students about my relationship with my same sex partner. Don't I never, when I went 0.99

00:23:31.840 to school with my straight teachers or gay teachers or whatever the heck they may have been,

00:23:35.760 they weren't like, so this weekend, my husband brought home a nice chardonnay.

00:23:40.300 Do you know how I knew that my teachers were married and had kids? If the kids got out of the car with

00:23:45.720 them at school, like kids went to the same school or I saw them at church and I was like, oh, there's

00:23:50.920 Mr. Kalal and his family or there he's sitting with his family and he goes up to do the reading at

00:23:55.560 church. That's how I put together who was who in the family. I didn't want to hear about it. And

00:24:00.420 I liked it that way. Well, and I know someone on, some of the other day on Twitter to give full

00:24:05.260 credit. I wish I remembered who it was, but they were saying like, if you had these conversations

00:24:08.960 in the workplace, it'd be considered sexual harassment, but these people want to have it 1.00

00:24:12.820 with kids in schools. And this is an, a condemn date condemnation. That was a little

00:24:17.680 medalist Jamie Soleil who said that. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. So, and I knew it was

00:24:24.400 someone of note, but it's absolutely just shocking to see that this is what people are outraged

00:24:30.860 about. Like this, this should just be one of those sensible, like, well, yeah, that's not really the

00:24:36.800 age for that. But I mean, you, you look at these progressives, like you look at the sex ed curriculum

00:24:41.060 that was that they attempted to pass under the McGinty government. I believe that I convicted pedophile 0.90

00:24:47.220 Benjamin Levin wrote and contributed to that sex ed curriculum. Uh, it then under Catholic and

00:24:53.860 when, I think it was, it actually came into effect. And then after that, Alberta borrowed from that sex 0.62

00:24:59.340 ed curriculum. So you literally have pedophiles writing sex ed curriculums, people who coach people

00:25:04.260 on how to abuse their own children, writing sex ed curriculums. And no one has a problem with that. 0.92

00:25:09.640 But then DeSantis says, well, maybe up until eight, we shouldn't be talking about all this stuff. We can do

00:25:14.040 some basic biological stuff, maybe, but we shouldn't be having these conversations. That is the only

00:25:19.320 sensible opinion that you can have on this matter. And I'm all for conversations. I think that there

00:25:23.800 is some nuance and some discussion about when discussing sexuality, do we talk about just the

00:25:29.760 biology? At what point do we start talking about relationships? Like what is the appropriate

00:25:33.800 threshold for that? That's a conversation that we have to have, but it isn't pushing LGBTQ ideology on

00:25:39.780 kids under the age of eight. That much I can assure you of, and there's no room for wiggler

00:25:43.800 nuance there.

00:25:45.560 And I think when we say that people think this stuff is acceptable, I actually think we're

00:25:53.500 oversampling there. And it's because you and I watched the internet outrage on this. I think

00:25:59.680 Hollywood is fine with it. You know, Hollywood that hid Weinstein and Epstein were perfectly fine

00:26:07.140 with all of that. They were happy to see young starlets molested. 0.93

00:26:11.240 Someone else had a 40 by 40 mile island, I think. No, it was a little bit smaller, but there's some

00:26:17.960 comparables.

00:26:19.500 Yeah. I mean, these are the people who kept their mouths shut. Who's that billionaire from

00:26:24.300 Winnipeg?

00:26:26.680 Peter Nygaard. Also kept their mouths shut about Peter Nygaard. Yeah, same people. You know, all these

00:26:31.520 weirdos with your private island. They just love that. They kept their mouths shut about that because it

00:26:36.040 furthered their career. They're the ones who are now telling us that they know best about what we

00:26:42.700 need to do as parents to protect our kids from people like that. And I think that they are, once

00:26:50.920 again, grossly misunderstanding the mama bear sentiment out there. Loudoun County was a great

00:26:57.380 example of this. Loudoun County. It mushroomed out of Loudoun County to the entire state of Virginia.

00:27:03.700 They flipped the state, a deep Democrat state. Republicans are running the show now because

00:27:09.620 it engaged people who were apolitical but said, this is my one issue. My kids. Stay away from my

00:27:17.020 kids. And so I think Hollywood is, they're underestimating this. And I think the share price

00:27:24.120 with Disney is a good gauge of this. That Disney and Hollywood are really disconnected about what

00:27:31.720 normal people think. And this is how you make, you know, Democrats, Reagan Democrats, this is how you

00:27:38.500 get them voting hard Republican all the time. This is how you radicalize those people against you.

00:27:43.760 And this is the thing. I mean, the progressives, they aren't sensible. They don't engage in rationality.

00:27:50.160 Very often, they'll go to extremes on issues we've seen with lots of the BLM stuff. And don't get me 0.95

00:27:54.840 wrong. There is a lot of sort of institutional racism. We're not pretending that that doesn't

00:27:58.260 exist in some faculties, but the stories that they rile up sometimes, once the facts come out,

00:28:04.160 they don't align with the story they're trying to tell. There's a hundred valid examples, but they're

00:28:10.100 so political that they're like, oh, no, this is the story that we're trying to tell now. But they've

00:28:14.120 lost track of that sort of reality. But we've seen on this issue, once you go after kids,

00:28:19.260 the moms become awake. We saw this with the original Benjamin 11 in the sex ed curriculum, 0.66

00:28:24.920 the moms just, and this was like immigrant communities, longstanding farming communities,

00:28:29.720 whatever it may be. They're like, we're not taking our kids to school. Get this out of here. And they

00:28:33.620 won. You go after kids. And that's what, that's what progressives do. They're not rational. They're

00:28:37.680 just going to be aggressive. And there's no, there's no, oh, well, we've come to a point where we're

00:28:42.680 accepted. So we're going to stop. It's not rational. They'll perpetually keep pushing and they can't

00:28:47.420 control themselves. And once they push back on kids, I think this Disney line that they've crossed,

00:28:52.240 this classroom line that they've crossed is once again, going to wake up the mama bears and you

00:28:56.240 just don't win because very often these, these folks, they're, they're so busy. They're in the

00:29:01.720 household, they're taking care of the family or they're working while taking care of the family,

00:29:05.400 whatever it is that they may be doing. They're, they're often very busy and they're very focused on

00:29:09.600 that. But when they're focused on their family, if you cross that line and threaten their family,

00:29:13.240 that focus on their family gets turned towards fighting off those intruders and they lose,

00:29:19.220 they lose every single time. The other thing too, is not only that, but those, those wives, 0.98

00:29:23.440 those moms, whatever it may be, they get their husbands activated then too. They definitely set 1.00

00:29:27.700 the bar for society to paraphrase Fulton Sheen, but they're, they're like, no, this isn't going to

00:29:33.360 happen. And then it quite simply doesn't. Speaking of which mother's day is coming up very,

00:29:39.520 very soon. And guys don't sit there. Don't wait for the last possible minute. If you're watching

00:29:46.580 this, if you're in a rebel household, we have some incredible stuff. Sheila wears it all the time. 0.98

00:29:51.240 Lots of our folks wear it. I know my wife, my mom, they've got the stuff. There's these really nice

00:29:56.700 women's cuts, babies, baby stuff. There's women's cut shirts on there. There's mugs. There's all sorts

00:30:02.640 of incredible stuff at rebel news store.com. We actually also have a promotion right now where it's

00:30:07.580 buy one, get one 25% off. And I think it's mom 25 is the code for that. So get an order and you can

00:30:14.380 get something for mom. You can get something for grandma. Look at those nice shirts. That's

00:30:18.600 incredible. And when you do this, you're getting them a meaningful gift. Lots of moms, maybe wouldn't

00:30:23.240 go and get this for themselves, but they're big rebel supporters. And it helps us in a couple ways.

00:30:28.060 One, we have all these cool moms out there rocking rebel gear, maybe some other moms or their friends 1.00

00:30:33.700 who don't know about rebel, but they're not really buying mainstream media. They check it out. And

00:30:38.080 they're like, what's this about? Um, two, when you purchase these shirts and you're getting a great

00:30:42.040 deal with this code, um, but it actually goes to support our independent journalism. We don't steal

00:30:46.440 money through your taxes. Uh, we just, we just say, Hey, if you want to support us, grab a shirt,

00:30:51.720 sign up for rebel news plus. So go to rebel news store.com, get something. Now I get the order. And as soon

00:30:56.800 as possible to make sure that it's here, get something for the kids too. If mom has a rebel shirt, 0.76

00:31:00.880 you know, the kids are going to want one too. I got to order some of these for my kids too,

00:31:04.780 for sure. Those are so good. Um, and yeah, so check it out. Rebel news store.com, get the mom,

00:31:10.520 grandma, whatever it may be in your life. One of these awesome shirts.

00:31:14.800 My son said he wants that. My mom is a rebel shirt, but in like a grownup size. Cause I only

00:31:20.820 have it in kids sizes right now, but niche. Yeah. My kid's almost 24 and he's like, yeah,

00:31:27.000 I'll wear that to work. So I know he has one of the stickers. I don't think we have him on the

00:31:32.720 store anymore, but the, I'm a rebel sticker. And it's like, he really is. He gets out and people

00:31:36.500 go, Hey, whoa. Yeah. Yeah. Those used to be bumper stickers in our store, but, uh, we should also

00:31:43.080 suggest, uh, to people that they should put their order in, um, because I think the promotion ends

00:31:47.420 at the end of the month, but we have free worldwide shipping. So take advantage of that. Um, you can get

00:31:53.320 something for your, you know, your wife, your kids, grandma, mother-in-law, don't forget the

00:31:57.880 mother-in-law, um, yourself while you're at it. Well, mom wouldn't be happy with a whole family 0.99

00:32:02.780 of matching shirts. That's just too cute. You know what? There's a good anniversary picture.

00:32:07.440 Not that weird thing that Justin Trudeau did. Exactly. For sure. Now, before we, uh, did our little

00:32:15.240 store talk, you were talking about your homes being invaded, um, by weird progressive ideology,

00:32:22.380 but they can also be physically invaded by, you know, burglars, home invaders. Weird progressives.

00:32:29.180 Weird progressives. And if that happens in the state of Florida, you know, God help the burglars.

00:32:35.820 We have, you know, and I often think like, okay, if Ron DeSantis does become the next president of the

00:32:43.040 United States, what will fill that vacuum? Well, the good news is in Florida, there are a ton of elected

00:32:49.440 sheriffs who would make really, really great governors. And this is one of them. Uh, we have

00:32:55.900 this clip from an official press conference. And as a Canadian, it's like watching something from

00:33:00.260 another planet because you know, those people are out there, you know, they exist, but you know,

00:33:03.960 you'll never hear it in your own country. Let's take a listen to this.

00:33:06.900 And I want to say, uh, ask to the person, we don't know what homeowner, which homeowner shot at him.

00:33:13.740 Um, I guess they think that they did something wrong, which they did not. If somebody's breaking

00:33:18.000 it in your house, you're more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County. We prefer that 0.95

00:33:21.580 you do actually. Um, so whoever that was, you're not in trouble. Come see us. We have a gun safety

00:33:28.820 class. We put on every other Saturday. And if you take that, you'll shoot a lot better and hopefully

00:33:33.560 you'll save the taxpayers money. So with that questions and I want to. Yeah. Wouldn't you want

00:33:40.720 to know what the questions were? Oh yeah. You know, you know, the, it was probably like,

00:33:46.540 do you recommend a nine millimeter or, um, you know, the, the incredible thing about this is,

00:33:53.220 and this is like how far we have slipped as a society. Obviously, if you can avoid killing

00:33:59.900 someone, that's ideal. That's the Christian thing to do, but probably 40 years ago, well, 0.88

00:34:07.660 if someone's breaking into your house, of course, maybe give them a warning. And if they continue,

00:34:11.600 that's protecting your property, protecting your family, that would have been a given.

00:34:16.180 It was get the gun. No one would have batted an eyelash at that. No doubt people out there think

00:34:21.760 this is crazy now. Like Canada, Canada, you literally have like, someone can break into your

00:34:29.180 house and you're like, enjoy, please. Can I make you a sandwich? That's what they expect you to do.

00:34:33.600 You can't do anything. You can't do anything. And if you do do something, you end up being sued by the

00:34:39.440 guy you winged and you get dragged to court. You are the one who's in trouble, um, for attempted

00:34:45.360 murder or whatever. That, that by the way, was Sheriff Bob Johnson in 2020. He ran unopposed.

00:34:53.680 Nobody. No wonder. I wonder why.

00:34:56.820 Second term as the elected County Sheriff there. And in 2020, nobody even bothered to oppose him.

00:35:03.660 Um, and I love his philosophy of like, look, come get some gun training. So you don't miss next time.

00:35:09.280 You want to make sure that you hit center mass. Um, and then he made the fiscal argument for it. So

00:35:15.100 I'm all ears. Uh, Florida remains the best state in the Republic.

00:35:19.040 And the other sort of thing here is it's, it's literally, it doesn't actually have anything to

00:35:23.500 do what he's saying with shooting burglars. It's if there was a prominent threat within society

00:35:29.720 of if you rob somebody or break into their house, you're going to get blown away. People would stop

00:35:36.460 robbing people and breaking into their house. Cause it's like the police response time is like seven

00:35:40.280 minutes. I can get in and out in seven minutes. You call, I want to remind people of their anti-gun

00:35:44.800 progressives. The reason you're calling the police is because they have guns.

00:35:49.280 That's why you're calling the police because they have guns. If you're safe and you have a gun,

00:35:55.700 you can eliminate the middleman and the cops aren't going to get there in time to keep your

00:35:59.580 family safe.

00:36:00.780 Why trust somebody else with your personal safety? I'm highly confident that I could probably take

00:36:06.300 care of myself if the state would let me. Um, I've gone to the gun range with cops and Alberta

00:36:13.800 sheriffs. I'm not going to name them, but I've been there at the gun range, just shooting

00:36:18.700 and the sheriffs are taking their training at the same time. Those guys couldn't hit the broad 0.79

00:36:24.400 side of a bar and they'd be better off throwing their service pistol at the bad guy. Because I mean,

00:36:30.540 it's just like watching them shoot was like, does that guy have a problem with his hands and one of

00:36:35.500 his hands on backwards? Like it was just really hard to watch. And I thought, these are the guys

00:36:41.020 who get to wear a gun to work every day. Why don't I get to wear a gun to work every day? I'm at

00:36:46.180 least more proficient. Anyway, if people want more, uh, Florida sheriffs, uh, talking smack about bad

00:36:55.200 guys, just go on a YouTube, a rabbit hole looking for Sheriff Grady Judd. Um, he's amazing. Very much

00:37:03.040 like Bob Johnson, same like pro gun, pro citizen, pro public safety. Uh, we're here to protect you

00:37:11.220 and then also leave you alone, which is exactly what you want from a cop. And we're here to ensure

00:37:16.380 that people leave you alone, including us. Yes, exactly. That's the police mission statement

00:37:22.100 that I want. Mark Neufeld, come on. I want to move to that town. Speaking of police, not leaving you

00:37:27.880 alone, um, and political policing. Why don't you tell us what's going on in Calgary? What went on

00:37:33.920 in Calgary this weekend? Because we saw the unequal policing happening in real time. Yeah. One law for

00:37:40.800 me, one for the, as Arthur Povoleski has been saying all along. Um, so there's this injunction in place

00:37:47.000 still against these peaceful protests. I'll remind everyone that the protests were going for two years

00:37:53.320 virtually without incident next to no violence, no arrests. They were in cooperation with the

00:37:59.640 police. The police would guide walks the few weeks. The police said we can't do a walk this week.

00:38:04.360 They wouldn't do walks. It was the, it was two years of like picture, perfect, peaceful protesting.

00:38:10.780 Um, Jyoti Gondek suddenly a month and a half, two months ago has a temper tantrum on Twitter and

00:38:17.700 decries these people and says that they're violent and that they're disruptive and all this stuff.

00:38:22.480 Keep in mind, they did done, they were in a park and then they walked for an hour through communities.

00:38:25.820 So they brought about this anti-protesting injunction that limited marches, limited access,

00:38:31.560 limited use to amplification, limited. Effectively, it was a direct attack on these protests.

00:38:36.460 Now that's concerning enough, but then we saw this glaring hypocritical double standard where

00:38:41.160 if there was a pro-Palestinian protest or a pro-Ukraine protest or a flames game, whatever it may be,

00:38:47.780 they could be breaking every single one of those rules and there'd be accommodations. But just this

00:38:51.920 one group, these freedom protesters, they'd be targeted and forced ticketed. In fact,

00:38:56.800 they were giving tickets out just for honking. And then when people started honking in defense

00:39:01.180 of the pro-Palestinian protests that was actually illegally taking place in the park while the

00:39:06.360 legal protest was taking place in the city. Also, while, while calls for genocide were being heard

00:39:10.840 just like openly. Yeah. They put away their books. They stopped writing down license plates because

00:39:16.460 they couldn't confirm whether the honks were pro-Palestinian or pro-freedom. And they didn't want

00:39:20.980 to by accident give a ticket to a pro-Palestinian honker. So it's absolutely insane. It has nothing

00:39:26.320 to do with silence. It has nothing to do with respect. So this weekend, I believe Comic-Con was

00:39:30.100 in town. Saline was on location. And they basically, I know that they originally planned to do a parade

00:39:34.740 full on in complete violation of the injunction. I guess it snowed quite a bit. So instead,

00:39:39.720 they blocked off the road, blocked off the sidewalks, used amplification for Comic-Con

00:39:44.760 effectively. So they had all these people out in costumes, blocking the roads, doing all this

00:39:49.720 stuff. No ticketing, nothing. Because I guess freedom is not kosher to protest for, but Gandalf

00:39:57.660 heading to the streets, which by the way, Gandalf would have been leading the March for Freedom.

00:40:01.040 That is completely allowed. That's completely tolerable. It's this glaring double standard.

00:40:07.000 We are going to have something on this for everyone tomorrow, not quite ready to roll,

00:40:11.140 but not exactly taking it without some action. So there will be an update shortly on this injunction

00:40:17.940 for everybody out there. But again, such a glaring double standard. And it's just further evidence.

00:40:23.320 And to an undeniable extent that we are seeing politicians who profess to, oh, well, Tyler

00:40:31.100 Chandler, Jason Kennedy, we didn't ask anybody to go after Arthur Poblowski. He's just randomly,

00:40:35.380 continuously targeted without cease. We didn't add, Jyoti Gondek goes on a Twitter tantrum. A week

00:40:41.360 later, this one protest she's mad about is being attacked by the police forces. These police forces

00:40:46.980 have become a security wing for politicians. They aren't upholding the criminal code. They aren't

00:40:51.820 upholding the charter. They aren't applying the test of law. They're just acting on the whims of

00:40:56.520 politicians and making examples of people. And it's pretty disappointing. Yeah, there's the tweet

00:41:02.580 from Jyoti Gondek, which one of the tweets I replied, well, that's not what happened. And she

00:41:06.480 immediately blocked me. I didn't say anything remotely disrespectful. I said, well, this is

00:41:10.060 inaccurate and this is not what happened in any way, shape or form. Blocked immediately because

00:41:15.980 apparently conversations are not tolerated anymore. Very sad to see, um, many of us big time. I mean,

00:41:23.820 I still am a big, like thin blue line back. Those guys, there's lots of good cops. Most of us are

00:41:31.320 probably pretty historically. Well, back. I mean, there's, there's issues, there's problems,

00:41:36.240 but we're generally going to stand by cops. But, uh, what Mark Newfelt and these politicians are doing

00:41:41.200 in police forces, Ottawa, the damage that they've done to policing is irreparable. Um, shockingly,

00:41:46.940 the amount of damage they've done going a long way to reinforce this defund the police narrative,

00:41:51.820 which what we need is training and well-equipped police who are not, uh, who are willing to say

00:41:56.900 no to an order that goes against the law in this country. That's what we need. Principled cops,

00:42:01.780 um, not politically activated cops. It's been like this since the very beginning though,

00:42:07.420 you know, when everybody is locked down, you can't open your business, uh, you can't have,

00:42:12.760 uh, public gathering, anything like that, but you could have thousands of people marching in the

00:42:17.740 streets for BLM, politicians taking a knee for BLM, the cops taking a knee during BLM while protesters

00:42:27.240 at the legislature were being hauled away by the sheriffs because they were violating public

00:42:32.580 gathering restrictions. We had the NDP in Edmonton speaking at the BLM event while they're in the

00:42:40.240 legislature calling for your business to be closed. We literally saw, I think it was May 31st,

00:42:45.320 Dina Hinshaw last year, May 31st, they, or was it the, yeah, last year, they made a new law when 0.94

00:42:52.900 there was pro-Palestinian protests so that they could protest. Gathering was illegal. Everything was

00:42:58.480 illegal. The other protests that people were having, that people were attending were illegal.

00:43:03.000 Chris Scott, Arthur Pawlowski, but a week later, the Palestinian pro-Palestinian crowd wanted to

00:43:07.000 protest and therefore they passed an amendment saying, oh, well, that they can protest. It's

00:43:12.000 insane. The thing that's absolutely like unbelievable for me is like, I don't know how these politicians,

00:43:19.860 I mean, they must, how they justify this in their brains. Like, like the amount of people in the city

00:43:28.000 who are happy with this and go along with it and think that it's fine. And it was just safety

00:43:32.800 measures for everyone's safety. Well, if it was safety measures for everyone's safety, it wouldn't

00:43:37.240 have been completely selectively enforced on certain ideological groups. Because by the way,

00:43:43.280 the things don't spread based on ideological groupings, but that they, they, they sure seem to

00:43:49.080 enforce based on that. So there's some distinct patterns. Certainly freedom protests and pastors

00:43:54.180 seem to be the only ones targeted throughout all of this illegal concerts, other faith groups.

00:44:00.180 Yeah. The same thing. These are the same people who say that, uh, and I'm running up to the line

00:44:06.080 with YouTube, but these are the same people who say church is a super spreader event. Um, but going to

00:44:12.920 Walmart and touching everything on the shelves, rubbing your nose, pulling down your mask, rubbing your

00:44:18.280 nose, touching the craft dinner, putting your mask back up and then putting the craft dinner back on

00:44:22.320 because you changed your mind. Um, that's fine. But people gathering together to worship God,

00:44:30.140 that's the problem with these people. And then they keep telling me to follow the science and I'm

00:44:34.120 trying, but I can't. But then it isn't even just people coming together and worshiping God because

00:44:38.940 well, I, I believe that, but people got together and worshiped other gods or their gods. And that was

00:44:45.420 completely acceptable. It's so, it's so glaringly nefariously evident. And we saw this and we've

00:44:52.760 talked about this before. While pastor Arthur Pawlowski was being arrested and harassed, there

00:44:58.200 was far larger denominations engaging in other religions, um, which we're not going to get into

00:45:03.840 because I don't want anyone to be targeted. I think everyone should be left alone, engaging in

00:45:07.240 far greater violations of the exact same rules, mere blocks away. Jason Kenny broke the rules. He said,

00:45:13.020 sorry, he didn't get charged with contempt of court. Um, there's just this glaring, ridiculous double 0.97

00:45:17.620 standard. And the government just needs to say, yeah, we really botched this. Everything is done. 0.83

00:45:22.740 We're moving on. There there's no other, like the legal repercussions from this are going to be

00:45:27.580 decades because there was just this absolutely uneven application of the law. Um, and it's, it's,

00:45:34.600 it's again, it's in this injunction. It's, it's sad. The whole world looked on at what happened in

00:45:38.940 Ottawa with a trucker convoy with like horror. They looked at the arrest of pastor Arthur Pawlowski

00:45:43.800 with horror police forces in Canada. Well, that's a good idea. We should emulate that more of that.

00:45:50.400 Let's do that. Yeah. Yeah. This, this got a lot of clicks on YouTube. We should do that. It seems

00:45:55.220 popular. Yeah. Yeah. Which I'm, I'm currently working on a story that I think people might be

00:46:01.440 interested in. I don't want to give too much of it away, but it is about the, remember back when

00:46:07.180 the bachelorette was going to be filmed in Alberta. Uh, that was in January of 2021 when

00:46:14.120 the news sort of got leaked out that you couldn't, uh, book a hotel room basically in Jasper

00:46:20.860 because the film production team had booked them all up, but then sort of things got a

00:46:27.100 little bit and then they, I think they eventually ended up going to New Mexico where the science

00:46:32.300 is different apparently. And, uh, I have all the mountain air. It's troubling. I have all the

00:46:39.300 documents and what we know or what we were allowed to know versus what they were doing. And when they

00:46:48.020 started doing it behind the scenes will infuriate you. And this is personal to me because during that

00:46:55.800 time, um, we could only have 10 people at my mom's funeral in a church that seats over 800 people.

00:47:03.800 Um, but the government was doing everything they could to trip over themselves to bring Hollywood

00:47:08.560 to Alberta. So stay tuned for that because we have all the documents, um, because we're asking

00:47:13.800 questions. Nobody else is. Uh, we have 13. It's called journalism. Yeah. It's journalism. I saw those

00:47:21.060 documents. I'm very much looking forward to that report though. I've gone back and I've looked at,

00:47:27.860 I, before we got on the call here, I looked at all the press conferences in and around the time that

00:47:32.920 things started happening for the bachelorette. The timeline is going to make you so mad.

00:47:40.000 Like, so you were, I guarantee you were making loud noises and slamming papers while you were,

00:47:45.040 oh, I, well, you were, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I had to muffle yourself laughing at,

00:47:51.120 at Amber Heard's lawyer just so I could feel better. Um, do we have any, uh, chats that we need to get

00:48:00.380 to their producer friends? Okay. Maybe you can send those in. In the meantime, we will

00:48:06.980 perhaps talk about this Blacklock story while you're digging those up and sending to us, uh,

00:48:12.380 the one about the CBC pundit. Yeah. If you wouldn't mind. It's, you know, the thing that's

00:48:18.920 absolutely unbelievable here is that right as there's more and more scrutiny, particularly with

00:48:24.120 some candidates in the conservative leadership, uh, saying like it's time to defund the CBC or

00:48:30.500 privatize the CBC or we need serious reform, or there's obviously a conflict of interest. Um, I think

00:48:36.620 Pierre Leslin, uh, Bourgo and a few others, uh, but Baber, I believe as well, have overtly said

00:48:42.240 they didn't want to defund the CBC. Um, right when there's all this additional scrutiny on the

00:48:48.500 billions being spent on media that nobody watches, a glaring conflict of interest, um, journalists

00:48:55.760 who are supposed to be holding the government accountable are not so that they can get more

00:48:59.320 money from the government. It's basically bribing going on. We're seeing contracts being awarded

00:49:04.020 to CBC pundits under the justification that, that, that there's no public interest in opening

00:49:09.500 contracts. By the way, generally you open up to see if there's other options available. You can save

00:49:14.200 some money who can provide. Apparently that is not in the public interest. What's in the public

00:49:18.080 interest under the liberals and under Justin Trudeau is handing cash out to your buddies and hoping

00:49:23.560 nobody catches you, but they, they caught them. Yeah. To your friends and sycophants. And there's,

00:49:30.100 this story has an extra layer of grossness in it because it also involves the, as, uh,

00:49:37.080 Ezra calls it, the Indian industry or the indigenous suffering industry where these people are 1.00

00:49:42.060 reconciliation experts, um, where they just sort of get in the middle because they see that there's

00:49:49.180 money to be had, um, pushing the idea of reconciliation. It reminds me of, uh, those people who advocate,

00:49:57.020 excuse me, advocate for drug, um, what they call it harm reduction, which is just giving drugs to

00:50:03.540 addicts, which is the exact opposite of what they need. And then they get sort of get government

00:50:08.140 funding to get in the middle of all this, but they never, there's no, uh, incentive to solve the

00:50:14.360 problem because if they solve the problem, then their consultancy fees go away. So naturally they're

00:50:19.300 like, no, we need harm reduction, not harm elimination. We need, uh, reconciliation consultants

00:50:25.420 instead of just getting reconciliation done. Um, this person is one of those people. So from

00:50:31.600 black locks from behind their paywall, um, this, if you are not a subscriber to black locks, this is one

00:50:37.220 of the best few hundred dollars you'll spend in a year. Uh, governor general, Mary Simon's office

00:50:43.800 awarded a $96,000 contract to a CBC pundit who told a network audience that Simon was the perfect

00:50:52.400 appointee. A CBC ethics code forbids undisclosed payments to on air commentators. So she's out

00:50:59.140 there stumping for Mary Simon, but also getting money from Mary Simon at the exact same time and

00:51:03.620 not telling the viewer any of this. And CBC is like, eh, it's fine. Rideau Hall documents

00:51:09.720 confirm the payments to Mary Wilson of Yellowknife as a reconciliation consultant. Then what does even

00:51:16.480 that mean? What does that person do? A $96,000 payment covering a 10 months work expires next

00:51:23.760 month. It was not in the public interest to solicit bids wrote the governor general's office. Wilson

00:51:29.140 is a former CBC executive. These people never get out of the public sector. They just mill around

00:51:34.660 anyways, who previously less money for more work. Who would this keeps going though? She was a CBC 0.99

00:51:42.260 executive who previously worked with the governor general's husband. It's fine. Wilson in 2016.

00:51:49.720 Oh, it gets worse. In 2016 was named a Trudeau foundation mentor. And in 2017 was appointed as

00:51:57.420 CBC director. Wilson also attended the governor general swearing in last July 26 and subsequently

00:52:03.200 praised the appointment in an August 7th CBC radio broadcast of the program, the house. Don't worry,

00:52:08.700 nobody listened to it anyway. Wilson's contract was formally signed August 16th. It was not disclosed

00:52:15.200 at the time. Just wow. This hits every, this checks all the boxes, right? Trudeau foundation, CBC,

00:52:23.500 untendered contracts, undisclosed conflicts of interest. This is everything I hate about the government

00:52:29.420 just in one story. Well, and you know what, like it's ridiculous and we can have a laugh at this 0.95

00:52:35.700 story, but on numerous levels, it is so nefarious and insidious. That's our taxpayers money. And this 0.71

00:52:42.460 is on the most, the most innocuous level. That is our taxpayer money being given to some activists

00:52:47.600 for agreeing and, and basically being sycophants for the Trudeau foundation. But I, I'd extend this

00:52:54.040 and suggest that this is why there's not clean drinking water for indigenous communities in this

00:52:59.480 country. This is the root of so many of our problems because instead of getting anything done,

00:53:04.740 instead of having open source bidding contracts to get water wells, water treatment stations,

00:53:10.780 whatever it may be done by the people who can do it most effectively, Sundance construction, et cetera,

00:53:15.940 et cetera. Um, they're, they're going to these, these old corporate cottage industries and the

00:53:21.120 indigenous community, they'll call it cottage industries. Trudeau and his buddies meet up with

00:53:24.080 their cottages by the lakes. They hand out contracts. They never source them to the public

00:53:28.160 or they source them to the same three friends and kind of divvy it up evenly. Um, those companies

00:53:33.200 that then behooves them to not provide solutions for these communities, because if you can temporarily

00:53:38.660 fix something or instead of updating, uh, an existing system, that would be a $3 million fix. Say you

00:53:45.140 have to tear it all down and develop a new $4 million or $40 million system. Um, and then knowing

00:53:50.660 that, that $40 million system, the UV rays reacts with the sulfur and actually makes the water

00:53:55.680 carcinogenic. And then that's another problem to fix. Um, it's the lack of accountability and it's

00:54:00.460 the lack of sort of fact seeking in these institutions where it's just friends paying friends and creating

00:54:06.520 problems is why kids can't take baths more than once every two weeks on some of these, uh, in some of

00:54:12.860 these communities because the water is acidic. It's absolutely sickening. And this has existed in

00:54:17.660 government, but it's incredible how quickly we talked about the communistic trend within society.

00:54:23.740 This degree of it is the type of thing you see in Castro's Cuba or even the Soviet, um, countries

00:54:29.820 are in China in full on Chinese communism style situations. And it's, it's getting that bad in

00:54:37.480 Canada and people are suffering as a result. Um, people aren't willing to look at the facts as

00:54:42.560 government is not interested in fixing solutions. Um, they're interested in, in maintaining, like

00:54:47.740 you said, and it's interesting how many different niches you see this happen. And you talked about

00:54:52.720 providing drugs and harm reduction. You talk about truth and reconciliation. There's never an end to

00:54:58.400 anything because then the jobs would go away. And this is like one of those actors at CBC who just,

00:55:03.860 none of their shows are successes, but they keep on getting shows and getting paid. Um, that that's,

00:55:08.500 that's what's happening on a sort of macro level with this government. It's happened for a long

00:55:13.400 time, but it's gotten so, so much worse under Justin Trudeau. And, uh, here's hoping that it

00:55:17.980 won't last too much longer. You know, this whole, what you're talking about happening on reserves,

00:55:24.580 it's replicated, like I said, exactly in the harm reduction strategy happening in Vancouver that they

00:55:31.540 want to, that hasn't worked there in 20 years, by the way, that they want to roll out in cities all

00:55:35.060 across the country. It's like things are as bad as ever there. Why do you want to do this

00:55:39.780 everywhere else? But it was the Portland hotel society. And I remember so clearly because

00:55:44.580 the NDP were involved in that the woman, the man who is the head of the Portland hotel society,

00:55:50.900 which is like the harm reduction plate people there. She, uh, Jenny Kwan, uh, her husband was the

00:55:58.400 head of it. I think, I think they've subsequently divorced probably to save her political career,

00:56:02.580 but they were going to Europe, Disneyland, wherever charging limos, taking limos, charging it all back

00:56:10.660 to the Portland hotel society, which was getting money from the provincial government to administer

00:56:15.620 these harm reduction programs. They had no incentive to actually solve the problem of people overdosing

00:56:21.380 and dying and getting them treatment because then their expense accounts dry up. Yeah. NDP,

00:56:28.020 Jenny Kwan went to Portland hotel society funded Disneyland and Europe trips. Yeah. Family trip.

00:56:34.500 You're taking the kids to Disneyland and you don't think anything's weird about expensing this

00:56:39.220 to the harm reduction society. It's all the same. It's so rampant. Yeah, it is so rampant. And it's like,

00:56:48.340 I mean, it's shocker. There's this mentality among progressives that like the government

00:56:53.060 is more sensible than people know the government will spend $20 on an apple that you can go buy

00:56:57.540 at the store for 89 cents. That's government in a nutshell, somebody's expenses to go down there

00:57:02.340 and pick it up. Yeah, exactly. It's, it's shocking. And it's, uh, it's so emblematic of what is going on.

00:57:08.580 We need massive reduction in government because it's just getting worse and worse and worse.

00:57:13.540 And with some of these new wacky sort of ideas being pushed UBI, whatever else it may be,

00:57:18.900 it's just going to get worse and worse and worse. And the worst thing is these people dare to have

00:57:23.700 the audacity to pretend that they're advocating for the middle class while their massive expenditures

00:57:28.580 are causing inflation, causing the house prices to double under Justin Trudeau on average, 0.83

00:57:33.540 utter hypocrisy. It's gross. Yeah. Well, like this reconciliation expert or consultant, 0.98

00:57:38.580 sorry, I won't call her an expert. She's the only thing she's an expert at is

00:57:42.020 milking the taxpayer for a career. Um, $100,000 as a reconciliation consultant,

00:57:48.340 that $100,000 could have gone a long way on a reserve. Yeah. Um, I wonder how many hours she worked. 1.00

00:57:55.060 Yeah. I'd love an hourly breakdown. Yeah. Yeah. I would like to see some tangibles,

00:58:00.980 please. Cause that's what they do in the private sector. Yeah. Um, Olivia, I'm going to skip over

00:58:08.900 Fraser's first comment there, just because I think it will cause us to run afoul of the YouTube

00:58:15.620 sensors. And we've kept the show on for this long that I don't want to remove us. And Fraser,

00:58:20.580 I'm really sorry. You know, we love you. You're, you know, one of our lowest, most loyal viewers

00:58:25.220 and watchers, but I'm just going to skip over that one just so that I don't get everybody in trouble.

00:58:29.780 Um, and then end our YouTube existence. Sorry, Fraser, but appreciate the five bucks. So thank

00:58:36.180 you very much. So we'll go to Fraser's second comment, uh, that begins with in the 1960s.

00:58:41.860 Perfect. In the 1960s, I worked as a bag boy at 75 cents an hour. Now we have to bag our own

00:58:46.820 groceries and pay for the bags ourselves. How I wish I lived in Florida. How about you? You know,

00:58:51.860 you got to ring yourself in too. Like, that's the thing. I sometimes for spite, I'm like,

00:58:58.740 I'm carrying two things. I'm going to wait in this darn line because there's no incentive for me 0.96

00:59:07.300 to go ring myself in. Like if you gave me a 10% discount on my groceries, because you don't have 0.97

00:59:12.660 to pay a human being to ring me through, I'm listening. But if I got to go ring myself in so

00:59:19.460 that you save money, I'm not sure I like that. Um, sometimes I just wait in a line for spite.

00:59:24.580 I realize I'm wasting my own time, but I don't care. I'm proving a point.

00:59:28.420 People in the sixties were like, Oh yeah. Can you imagine like 2022? Um, they're, they're going to

00:59:34.500 have the airplanes. It's going to be so like, we can smoke and have a meal on an airplane and

00:59:38.820 we're going to, we're so comfortable. Imagine what it's going to be like in the future. And like,

00:59:42.820 all the groceries, the things we're going to have access to, but, and if they were to jump ahead to 2022,

00:59:47.140 what we have now is straws that don't last for half a drink. So, uh, not quite as shiny a future

00:59:52.820 as we thought paper straws. Yeah. They said we were going to have flying cars and instead we've

00:59:59.060 got a robot that rings in your groceries, but you still have to operate it and it doesn't save you any

01:00:05.060 money at all. Anyway, uh, tank shop. Steve gives us 30 bucks. Holy heck. Thanks very much. Um,

01:00:12.820 good morning. She, yeah, no kidding. Good morning, Sheila. I saw you post on Twitter,

01:00:16.020 a Jerry can key chain and I saw Leslie and Lewis post the same thing. Where can I get one? If you

01:00:22.180 go, I don't have the young ladies contact information, but if you go back on my Twitter

01:00:26.180 feed where you saw that, just go to search the media. You don't want to put up with all my tweets

01:00:29.860 and scroll back. Just go to the media section on my Twitter feed and just go back and you should find,

01:00:34.340 uh, the photo I posted. I posted her little Etsy store business card there. So you should be able to

01:00:39.140 find her on Etsy there. Um, but I just didn't want to give out like this 10 year old girl's 1.00

01:00:44.660 phone number and email address, but you can contact her Etsy store because I think her parents help her

01:00:48.340 manage that. So there's a grownup on the other end of that. So if you go back, you should be able to

01:00:53.540 find, um, find her contact information. Um, yeah, she's 10 years old. She's, I guess she's doing like

01:01:00.820 crazy business on them. Like it says on one side, uh, Jerry can, Trudeau can't.

01:01:05.780 So it's kind of fun. It's like a drink box, water bottle sort of thing. So anyways, uh,

01:01:12.180 sorry, I can't be more help, but she's also 10 years old. So I don't want to give out her,

01:01:15.460 her phone number and stuff. You're not Disney. Yeah, I'm not Disney. I'm not a groomer. Uh,

01:01:21.540 JPH, uh, 1944 gives us a buck. How can Trudeau claim cabinet confidentiality to block an

01:01:27.540 investigation into his invoking the emergencies act? What could possibly be confident confidential?

01:01:34.180 So this is a catchall that, uh, the federal government does because it's even more, um,

01:01:41.140 of a catchall than claiming, Oh, personal information, because usually when they claim

01:01:45.300 personal information, they, you make them draw a line through the personal information

01:01:48.740 and then give you everything that's not personal information, uh, redact email addresses, phone

01:01:53.060 numbers, whatever. But this, they know that sometimes discussions within cabinet are confidential.

01:02:01.460 They're not subject to access to information, including those memos and things like that.

01:02:05.540 And so they sort of put everything they don't want you to know underneath all that. And I think

01:02:12.740 there will have been some conscientious objectors within cabinet saying,

01:02:17.700 what are you doing? This is crazy. We can't do this. And I think if they release those documents,

01:02:23.780 you would see the people who remain normal, or at least are hanging on to a shred of normalcy and

01:02:30.580 decency within the cabinet versus Trudeau and Freeland who were like, no, we need to drop the hammer down.

01:02:35.940 We need to go full Venezuela on these protesters. And, uh, I think that's it. They just don't want the 0.92

01:02:41.940 public to see the divide that unfolded within caucus. Um,

01:02:48.180 because I think it would cost some of those people, some of those people, their jobs within caucus,

01:02:53.460 but also some of the like pro pro crackdown people. I think they wouldn't want those discussions made public.

01:03:01.220 Uh, and we've got one from Kane and Mark gives us two bucks.

01:03:08.740 You, Adam were blocked by the Calgary mayor's account because you are white.

01:03:14.420 I don't think so. I think she just doesn't think it's because I was right.

01:03:18.180 Right. Exactly. I think she just doesn't like criticism. And so as a, as a touchy public official

01:03:25.140 who will out of one side of her mouth claim that journalists need to be treated fairly,

01:03:29.060 and they should be able to hold politicians to account, she'll block the ones that try to hold 1.00

01:03:32.900 her to account that don't kiss her feet as the, you know, female mayor of Calgary, 1.00

01:03:38.500 la dee da, like we're supposed to care at this point. So that's what I think.

01:03:43.300 I agree. Yeah.

01:03:44.420 Uh, I think we're all cut up and we're five minutes past the hour and I have a lot of access

01:03:49.300 to information documents to read and a couple of meetings to get to. Um, Adam,

01:03:53.620 thank you so much for being my cohost today. Thank you everybody at home who tuned in.

01:03:58.180 Thank you to everybody in the studio in Toronto, including the people behind the scenes who work

01:04:02.980 really hard to make sure that we are published and available for you to watch us wherever you

01:04:07.300 might find us. Thank you to everybody who pitched in a little bit to keep the lights on. Sorry,

01:04:11.540 Fraser, I couldn't read that one comment. Um, but I just didn't want to be the one who destroyed the

01:04:16.420 channel. I always assumed it would be David Menzies and I, I'm holding to that. Um, and as my friend

01:04:23.300 David Menzies says, stay sane. Thank you everybody for taking the time of your busy lives to come

01:04:31.540 and listen to what I have to say here tonight. You know, I've heard from so many truckers that were

01:04:37.060 in Ottawa, that Joe was the guy who was there making sure they had a roof over their head,

01:04:42.340 kind of quietly doing things behind the scenes to make sure that that effort could go off.

01:04:46.660 That says a lot back in a time when he was phoning other MPs to come out and to show their support and

01:04:52.740 nobody returned the calls. He was there on the front lines, making sure that that happened.

01:04:57.620 Those freedom fighters were supported in the ways that they needed.

01:05:00.340 Because Joseph is the only candidate in the race who's not connected to the World Economic Forum

01:05:05.860 in some way, shape or form. So that's why I'm here. And the biggest reason why we're in this state

01:05:11.380 is because of the World Economic Forum. And if you want to call me a conspiracy theorist,

01:05:16.580 just go to Klaus Schwab's video where he tells the world that basically half of the government

01:05:22.100 of Canada belongs to the World Economic Forum. Thank you everybody.
