Rebel News Podcast - DAILY Roundup ｜ Dong resigns from Liberals, Pastor Derek gets bail, No Trump arrest yet

00:00:00.000 good afternoon ladies and gentlemen you have tuned into the daily roundup on this

00:00:19.500 a thursday march 23rd 2023 i'm david menzies and my co-host well let me tell you a little bit about

00:00:28.000 my co-host do you know folks today is national near miss day and she never celebrates this day

00:00:35.280 because she always hits the bullseye she is the she devil with a sword she is the khaleesi 1.00

00:00:40.380 of northern alberta she is sheila gun reed how you doing there sheila oh david i'm great yeah

00:00:47.980 sometimes i find myself cheering for the asteroid very recently i'm often always cheering for the

00:00:54.840 asteroid i'm like you know we had a good run every day that we are not um you know subject to

00:01:00.360 rain of fire from above i think is a day that we're living on borrowed time lately but it's also um

00:01:05.700 national okay day and there's a i see in the image they use that guy giving the okay symbol and i'm

00:01:12.400 reliably informed by crazy people receiving government funding on the internet that the okay

00:01:16.740 symbol is a symbol of white supremacy uh which is absolute madness um it's also national puppy day

00:01:25.320 which i'm surprised you didn't pick see yeah that's uh crazy people on the internet say that that like

00:01:30.160 the w like the three fingers is like a w and it's like a signal of white supremacy i know this madness

00:01:37.680 he sure looks like a white supremacist you know what it's never stopped them before of accusing

00:01:44.140 people of color of being white supremacists didn't they accuse drea of that yeah drea and matt

00:01:50.940 use them of that um it's also national puppy day which i'm surprised you didn't take uh that as your

00:01:56.720 special day today and uh national cuddly kitten day so even the dogs cannot have their day the cats have

00:02:03.560 to come in and ruin it for everybody well my puppy is really bugging me sheila because within a calendar

00:02:08.620 year i've spent 1200 in reading glasses because somehow plastic metal and glass attracts my dog

00:02:17.480 sir gregor to it like it's a t-bone steak and he chews them up i do not understand that but you know

00:02:23.400 we should tell people because i had forgotten all about this i remember a bit of publicity about it

00:02:28.900 in 1989 um what national near mist day refers to is that on march 23rd 1989 an asteroid the size of a

00:02:41.120 a mountain came so close to earth and when i say close i'm speaking in cosmic terms 500 000 miles which

00:02:50.980 is about 805 000 kilometers it came so close to earth had it hit the earth you're looking at 600

00:02:59.480 megaton atomic bomb uh i think that's kind of like around the size that did in the dinosaurs

00:03:05.720 um some 120 million years ago but you know you stole my thunder sheila um i remember the 80s i mean if

00:03:12.100 there was such a thing as a delorean dmc with the flux capacitor option i'm setting it right back to the

00:03:19.080 80s you know before the internet um before trans sanity before blackface got into power it was so 0.79

00:03:27.400 civil it was so nice it was so normal back then uh but all those other factors i just listed off

00:03:34.180 have kind of ruined uh the 21st century but imagine that you know um and i guess when you're measuring

00:03:41.780 distances in trillions of miles in astronomy 500 000 miles that's the proverbial uh maxwell smart

00:03:50.740 missed it by that much chief yeah that's touching bumpers like that's real close and like i said

00:03:57.600 some days i'm cheering for the asteroid uh today is not one of those days though score a couple of

00:04:02.540 victories for the good guys over the last couple of days which is um good and we'll get into that in a

00:04:07.940 second you know we've got some changes happening in the house of commons and uh the democrats realizing

00:04:14.560 just how stupid they are um by uh attempting to arrest donald trump again and again and again and

00:04:21.380 again um but we'll get to that in a second we should tell everybody what we're doing here what

00:04:25.320 we're attempting to do here five minutes into the show we have done none of that it's a very very

00:04:30.380 busy news day a real packed pierogi as you always say um so this is the rebel news daily roundup it's

00:04:37.340 hosted largely by my friend david menzies although he lets me co-host a couple of times a week which i

00:04:43.120 really enjoy although i am uh you know i tease david but it's affectionate teasing and i love him very

00:04:48.460 much but if uh you want to watch us there are a bunch of different ways that you can do that so

00:04:54.460 it's we are on the censorship platform of youtube uh rumble odyssey twitter and getter but if you want

00:05:02.880 to support the work that we do completely willingly out of the goodness of your heart because you want to

00:05:06.920 cheer for the little network that could might i suggest you watch us over on rumble or on odyssey

00:05:12.700 two really great free speechy platforms that really don't care about your politics which is how it

00:05:18.100 should be it's the internet public square and you can leave us a paid chat on either one of those so

00:05:24.140 on rumble it's called the rumble rant on odyssey it's called the hyper chat and we will do our best

00:05:29.560 to address your comments questions story ideas towards the end of the show although sometimes we

00:05:35.540 if we have time we'll try to fit it into the middle but it's a great way for you to

00:05:39.240 a great reason i guess for you to stick around to the end of the show because that's where the

00:05:43.360 democracy happens because then you can take the show in your own direction there you go and as you

00:05:48.220 said she loves so much to get to so why don't we get to it uh the china crisis continues and by that

00:05:54.760 folks i don't mean the english new wave band uh back in the 80s uh probably best known for their song

00:06:00.700 fire and steel you should watch that video full of incredible archival footage of industry producing

00:06:07.560 things like cars and whatnot it will probably be condemned as a toxic masculinity today which is why

00:06:13.420 i want to get in that bloody delor and get back to the 80s but i digress no uh late yesterday what broke

00:06:20.120 as you probably are well aware of is that handong is stepping down as a liberal mp um wow is this story

00:06:29.420 ever changing over the last three weeks that it's been in the news um before we comment on that why

00:06:36.280 don't we go to the video and uh see handong saying adios maybe it's temporary if he's cleared or maybe

00:06:45.220 it's forever but uh take it away mr dong

00:06:49.140 oh we have some technical difficulties i don't know why the she devil has a case of the giggles right 1.00

00:07:04.920 now is that oh is it that last name well sheila i mean take it away mr dong i bet you've said that a

00:07:10.740 few times in your life that's all i have to say well um actually i've never said that until right

00:07:15.520 now and uh as you know we have a johnson investigating a dong right now so uh fill in

00:07:21.160 the punch line there i think we have the clip ready to go so i'll shut up before i get myself into more

00:07:26.820 trouble the honorable member for dawn valley north thank you speaker i rise on the point of order

00:07:34.040 i have informed the prime minister and the leadership of the liberal party caucus that i

00:07:40.200 will be sitting as an independent at the conclusion of these remarks mr speaker i'm in your hands as to

00:07:47.380 what happens next to all my colleagues in the parliament media reports today quoting unverified

00:07:53.560 and anonymous sources have attacked my reputation and call into questions my loyalty to canada

00:08:01.780 let me be clear what has been reported is false and i will define myself against these absolutely

00:08:13.760 untrue claims but let me assure you as a parliamentarian and as a person i have never

00:08:23.760 and i will never would and would never advocate or support the violation of the basic human rights

00:08:33.480 of any canadian of anyone anywhere period the accusations are false

00:08:42.280 my family came to canada for freedom i have had the privilege of being elected to this house

00:08:50.220 and i believe i have served honorably and pledged to continue to serve honorably and fulfill my oath

00:08:57.720 of office i will continue to serve the residents of dawn valley north as an independent member of this house

00:09:05.380 i'm taking this extraordinary step because to sitting to sitting the government caucus is a privilege

00:09:14.460 and my presence there may be seen by some as a conflict of duty

00:09:20.280 and the wrong place to be as an independent investigation pursues the facts in this matter

00:09:28.920 i will be sitting as an independent so that business of government and indeed the business of parliament

00:09:35.720 is not interrupted as i work to clear my name

00:09:39.440 and the truth is presented to parliament and to canadian people

00:09:44.700 i am a proud liberal

00:09:48.320 and i am proud of the work our government does day in and day out

00:09:55.540 to serve the people of canada

00:09:57.340 i also don't want to distract

00:10:00.780 from that important work

00:10:03.360 before concluding i want to assure mr michael spavart and mr michael culvert and their families

00:10:13.620 that i did nothing to cause them any harm

00:10:18.180 like everyone in this house i worked hard

00:10:22.020 and advocated for their interest as a parliamentarian

00:10:26.140 the allegations made against me are as false as the ones made against you

00:10:34.400 to my constituents

00:10:36.800 i will continue to work on your behalf as your member of parliament

00:10:41.280 to my staff i thank you

00:10:44.080 i know the days ahead will be difficult

00:10:46.800 but i will be there to support you as we continue to serve the people of dawn valley north

00:10:53.600 to my family and in particular my parents who brought us here to canada

00:11:08.320 to my wife sophie and my kids

00:11:11.980 i love you

00:11:14.080 i thank you for all the support and love you gave me

00:11:18.160 the truth will protect us our honor and our family will get through this together

00:11:24.620 sorry about that thank you speaker

00:11:26.980 wow what a shame that speech wasn't done before the academy awards of two weeks ago

00:11:44.820 three weeks ago why didn't he do this three weeks ago when all these allegations started swirling

00:11:50.600 he only does it after he's credibly accused of advocating for the

00:11:55.600 prolonged incarceration of two innocent canadians at the hands of the ccp 1.00

00:12:00.100 and we should go back a little bit because i my little notepad is just full of notes

00:12:05.360 watching that and i watched it last night and i took notes when i watched it last night

00:12:09.300 but i took some more again today of things i want to say but we should go back a little bit

00:12:13.160 um and if you were living under a rock or if you're wise enough to not pay attention to the

00:12:17.600 mainstream media every day you might not know the full story

00:12:20.240 but across canada there are approximately 11 ridings i'm sure there are more

00:12:27.960 where the liberal government is credibly accused of benefiting from chinese communist interference

00:12:35.160 um we know in the lower mainland of bc that kenny chu and alice wong lost their seats thanks to

00:12:43.100 or the ccp organizing on wechat which is a chinese social media app to get rid of the two of them 0.98

00:12:50.420 because the two of them although ethnically chinese are proud freedom-loving canadians and

00:12:55.480 even worse they're conservative so the liberals were perfectly happy to reap the benefits of foreign 0.99

00:13:02.040 meddling which they literally won't shut up about by the way and i'll get to that in a second

00:13:06.360 as long as it helped them win their seats you know anytime the liberals tell you oh all those people

00:13:11.740 are benefiting all those people over there those conservatives are benefiting from russia blah blah

00:13:15.940 it's definitely not that it's them distracting from them receiving uh the benefits of foreign meddling so

00:13:22.740 we know 11 ridings one of those is dawn valley north or as david menzies said in the morning meeting

00:13:28.820 the people's republic of dawn valley north with liberal mp handong now uh handong um it's no big

00:13:39.460 deal because he investigated himself and found no wrongdoing because um he has been credibly accused

00:13:46.700 by a leaker from ccis who said that his nomination was contaminated by chinese influence

00:13:54.840 they were the ccp operatives were putting pressure on um people to vote for him in the nomination 0.99

00:14:02.440 telling uh foreign students you better go vote for him or we're going to revoke your visas they were 1.00

00:14:07.700 bussing in elderly chinese um senior citizens with handong's name written on their arm so that i'm not even

00:14:16.380 making this up it's so i know i know so that they knew knew who to vote for when he got there

00:14:21.800 and then um it comes out late last night well not late last night but sort of yesterday morning but

00:14:28.480 the news really picked up steam and went to the top of the mountain peak that he just jumped off of

00:14:33.340 that he put pressure on a chinese diplomat handong being he on a chinese diplomat to continue the

00:14:43.480 unlawful incarceration of two innocent canadians kidnapped by the chinese state michael spavor and

00:14:50.500 michael kovrig because if those two innocent men were released from their chains that it would

00:14:57.120 benefit the liberal or benefit the conservatives in the lead up to the last election right if i were

00:15:03.100 the families of michael spavor and michael kovrig i would want to physically attack this man i'm not

00:15:11.440 a violent person the only person i want to do any sort of physical violence to is maybe

00:15:17.180 dylan mulvaney and only i want to arm wrestle him and if i win he gets fed up like that's it um

00:15:23.840 but i would want to grab that man and throttle him within an inch of his life um and all of this

00:15:32.500 none of this would be coming out now if this man had resigned three weeks ago but i whatever

00:15:41.400 compromise he's got on the liberals allowed him to stay on this long and it's i think this is just

00:15:47.840 the tip of the ccp iceberg we've got now at least 11 other ridings where similar things could happen 1.00

00:15:55.980 as what we just saw here and you know sheila what i'm fascinated with is the evolution of this story

00:16:04.000 going back some three weeks ago because right off the bat blackface said uh if you criticize an asian

00:16:09.960 canadian you are therefore racist this coming from a guy that's donned blackface so often he doesn't 0.82

00:16:17.280 even know how many times so it went from that to uh you know and then blackface saw the media wasn't

00:16:23.160 giving up on this it wasn't a 24-hour news cycle story so he said uh all right um i'm banning uh

00:16:29.040 federal government employees from using tiktok on their phones uh are you happy now is that enough

00:16:33.820 anti-china for you no so then it went from that to a special rapporteur not a garden variety one not

00:16:42.100 an off-the-rack one but a special one and sheila you know a lot of people are confused as was i when

00:16:47.860 i first heard this term i'd never heard it before a special rapporteur well what is that it's a fancy

00:16:54.640 couple of words to say an advisor that's what david johnson yeah the un sends the un sends these

00:17:02.660 people out all the time special rapporteur on human rights and then they just come they get some oh i'm

00:17:08.480 i think i'm frozen up they've come they get a photo opportunity and then they just leave and that's all

00:17:13.140 they do and i think very similar that's what's going to happen here and oh and oh by the way please

00:17:18.340 don't look too far behind the curtain because uh johnson who will be investigating dong is actually

00:17:25.140 a family friend of the trudeaus they went skiing together they have i guess chalets that are next

00:17:31.760 door um unbelievable and by the way i shouldn't mention uh sheila uh on in the sunday sun warren

00:17:39.600 kinsella has a column now warren kinsella is a die-hard liberal as well as the master of the smear job

00:17:46.360 yeah he's as oily as they come oh a hundred percent but he bleeds liberal red and he said

00:17:54.220 that johnson should have recused uh the gig of being the special rapporteur so it's not just

00:18:01.180 conservatives having a meltdown about this it's die-hard liberals like warren kinsella for goodness

00:18:06.640 sake so anyways it went so uh so first you're a racist then a special rapporteur and then finally 0.59

00:18:13.200 this he's going to remove himself from caucus and sit like an independent and why wasn't that done

00:18:19.200 in the first place with vincent ka uh that's immediately what he did uh he is the uh progressive

00:18:27.340 conservative uh member of provincial parliament for dawn valley north and by the way dawn valley

00:18:33.360 and and their offices sheila are about uh four football fields apart what is it with dawn valley

00:18:39.240 north all these you know chinese government infiltrated candidates allegedly but he immediately

00:18:46.780 sat as an independent and we must point out uh because there's so much blame that's circling right

00:18:52.880 now it's just broke the other day uh in the globe and mail that the doug ford government was advised by

00:19:01.080 ceases last fall okay last fall which begins uh you know in my books september 21st i believe that um

00:19:11.120 vincent ka had uh um some luggage uh to contend with but we didn't uh he didn't step down until just

00:19:20.680 like a week and a half ago and i like you said sheila there are more liberal writings where i think this

00:19:28.200 interference has occurred uh ex-conservative leader uh erin o'toole has said at least eight or nine

00:19:34.380 uh conservative seats were uh vanquished thanks to chinese interference so as i've always said about

00:19:42.560 this it is watergate yes watergate on steroids uh and perhaps human growth hormone as well this is

00:19:51.960 going to get worse and worse it's not going to go away and it would kind of be i'm very fascinated to see

00:19:57.840 what jagmeet singh is going to do in the house is he going to continue to chastise the liberal party

00:20:05.960 of canada on social media and in the media and in the press only do prop them up by votes i mean my

00:20:12.700 god if these most recent allegations don't grow a spine in the ndp leader i don't know what will sheila

00:20:20.720 well and let's just go back to doug ford for a second i don't know why that man is getting a pass on

00:20:25.940 the things we've been hammering justin trudeau on so doug ford gets a briefing on uh his mpp's

00:20:34.400 problems with possibly um being the beneficiary of foreign influence and does nothing and everyone's

00:20:42.540 like but at the same time everyone is losing their minds rightfully might i add that justin trudeau in

00:20:49.720 2019 all the top liberal party brass got a briefing and saying uh handong is basically a chinese

00:20:57.840 operative at this point what are you going to do about it and justin trudeau intervened to save his

00:21:04.740 nomination and the worst part is this is a safe liberal riding they could have put any liberal there

00:21:10.800 they wanted handong because i think they wanted the help in those other ridings like kenny choos like

00:21:20.320 alice wong's from the ccp so they were willing to put in the ccp's guy in the people's republic of 1.00

00:21:28.160 don valley north even though it was a writing that they could have killed his nomination and put a

00:21:32.620 different liberal in and the liberals still would have won because they wanted to show the chinese

00:21:37.200 we got you we'll put your man in there but we're going to need some help in the lower mainland and

00:21:42.340 i think that's exactly what happened but getting back to um handong's um speech there i don't think

00:21:48.800 you read it before you do because i want to uh follow through on something you just said how doug ford

00:21:54.960 is getting a pass and you're absolutely right uh jim carahalios this morning sent out uh an email

00:22:01.200 blast where he noted that uh at queen's park neither the liberals or the nd peers or the greens

00:22:09.180 are saying anything about this the silence is deafening now why wouldn't you this is a a

00:22:14.340 potential scandal that you've had an mpp put in power thanks to chinese interference and you know 0.87

00:22:21.540 it's so sad to me she led that we don't have at least one independent mpp like a candidate with the

00:22:29.060 new blue party to raise these questions because why would the opposition be so timid to condemn

00:22:38.160 doug ford about this i i i think they've all maybe got skeletons in their closet when it comes to this

00:22:44.840 issue yeah bingo exactly um that's exactly it and uh the media in and around there is pretty uh

00:22:52.640 contaminated by justin trudeau money so it's hard to hammer doug ford on this because he's a so-called

00:23:01.680 conservative i guess in name only if your guy if your guy in the house of commons is doing the exact

00:23:08.700 same thing right your paymaster is doing that at the federal level kind of hard to hammer the local

00:23:14.580 guy for that kind of thing but going back to uh handong's statement there uh from what i understand

00:23:21.040 his phone actually rang in the middle of that statement i wonder if that was beijing on the

00:23:25.180 phone saying what are you doing hen what are you doing um but i don't think he actually read that

00:23:33.620 statement before he read it like i don't think he i don't think he wrote it i think it was handed to

00:23:40.140 him probably by katie telford and they said okay get up read this immediately because things were

00:23:49.000 getting pretty pretty ugly yesterday um and it was the blubbering i think the blubbering is what

00:23:54.940 got to me you don't think those were genuine tears well you know sheila well i think they were but not

00:24:00.160 for the reason we think they were or like that people would say that they were can you see this

00:24:06.020 can you see this item in my hand what is it it's a tiny little case and inside it

00:24:11.680 is the harmonica world's smallest violin and i'll play it oh so

00:24:18.920 enough of that it's the blubbering as a woman sort of really gets to me i just it just makes your 1.00

00:24:27.840 ovaries just turn to dust i just i can't um but also i think he i think those might be genuine tears

00:24:38.360 i keep freezing up uh i think they are genuine tears out of oh they're fear tears is what i think

00:24:45.440 i think he's scared yeah exactly i see this in courts from time to time when you have somebody

00:24:52.000 that's being sent away for 25 years for murder and the waterworks go on is it because of the guilt

00:25:01.020 of what they did to their victim when he killed him or her or is it because they've got caught he's

00:25:09.140 been caught and none of his arguments stuck and he's going to the big house for a quarter of a

00:25:15.500 century is that what's making him cry yeah it's the latter it's being caught uh not sympathy for the

00:25:22.100 victim also i think you know like he is an operative i'll just say it allegedly of the chinese state and

00:25:32.020 he just listed all of his family that are probably going to be the focus of uh chinese strong arming

00:25:39.000 going forward um we know that they can get him elected they can do other terrible terrible things

00:25:45.340 uh to his friends and family but that's the deal you make when you make a deal with the devil isn't it

00:25:51.100 well indeed and sheila can we now finally uh cut to the chase as they say in hollywood forget the

00:25:58.040 special rapporteur with blackface's family friend can we have a legitimate public inquiry can we have

00:26:04.760 a police investigation thank you where the hell are the rcmp i know you're really busy guys uh at

00:26:10.780 roxham road uh turning into a bellhop service but maybe you ought to look at this kind of interference

00:26:18.080 by foreign governments in canada uh even before this special rapporteur uh you know delivers uh his

00:26:26.180 report because we know there's an investigation that ceases who's the whistleblower this is blackface's 0.92

00:26:32.520 version of getting to the bottom of things he wants to know who was singing like a canary

00:26:38.060 as opposed to the scandal itself sheila yeah and i think it's just so ironic right the liberals who

00:26:45.080 won't shut up about protecting the integrity of our democracy and oh those truckers were kremlin-led 0.98

00:26:51.640 operation with like zero zero evidence of that whatsoever but all they were trying to do was point

00:26:56.780 the finger in that direction because they were actually being directed out of beijing so this

00:27:03.200 completely organic human rights movement the freedom convoy for the liberals it actually made sense

00:27:10.180 to them that it was a kremlin-led operation because they're a beijing-led operation so it makes it's

00:27:16.060 not a far leap for them a hundred percent and and again to analyze his words in that four minute clip

00:27:22.140 sheila when dong started talking about um you know fighting for the human rights of canadians

00:27:29.700 you know brushing off the fact that he had anything to do with increasing the incarceration time of the

00:27:35.240 two michaels yeah this is a guy talking about being a champion for human rights why was it sheila that

00:27:42.180 mr dong at the last second you know left the house of commons twice when there were two motions to

00:27:50.560 condemn the chinese communist party for the ongoing genocide of the uyghur people in china in his home

00:27:58.360 country why did he do that yeah yeah that's a great point i almost forgot about that in all the

00:28:04.940 handong scandals i had forgotten that there were signals that this was happening all along all we

00:28:11.540 had to do is pay attention to it and yes indeed he did pop out of two votes to condemn china for its

00:28:20.360 genocide of the uyghur muslims and turkic minorities in china and one of those was a liberal introduced 0.98

00:28:26.960 motion yes he couldn't vote like he was more loyal to the ccp than his own party despite his stupid red 0.85

00:28:35.740 tie he left and if we were paying attention we might have noticed that and anybody who didn't

00:28:43.280 vote in that motion should be under some pretty serious scrutiny right now and you know i would

00:28:49.000 love to see somebody in the ottawa press gallery grow a set and ask a question they should have been

00:28:55.960 asking for the past decade that given all this baggage thanks to china it's not just the 0.98

00:29:01.860 interference in our elections uh sheila it's not just the ongoing genocide of the uyghur people

00:29:07.800 it's not just the fact that the wuhan virus originated out of china and cost what almost

00:29:14.300 seven million lives these past few years and untold trillions trillions of economic damage

00:29:21.700 does prime minister justin blackface trudeau still admire the basic dictatorship of china which is

00:29:30.040 what he said in toronto in in 2013 before he became prime minister why isn't anyone asking him that

00:29:36.600 sheila also they're trying to write currently by the way if they didn't try to take over the world or

00:29:44.820 kill the world with the wuhan virus they're making a human monkey hybrid over there i saw how that 1.00

00:29:51.720 movie ends i saw and humanity doesn't do well in it yeah you first ever human monkey hybrid created 0.86

00:30:00.140 oh my goodness in china yeah i i know i think the movie ends with charlton heston on a beach staring at

00:30:08.100 the ruins of the statue of liberty going you bastards you blew it up yeah we're all gonna get 0.70

00:30:16.120 murdered by monkeys with a case this is how this ends for us this is why i cheer for the asteroid it

00:30:21.640 seems more humane um we should go ahead go why would anyone want a monkey hybrid i mean like one of 1.00

00:30:29.700 the most disturbing things as a child watching the wizard of oz is that the wicked witch of the west 0.88

00:30:34.540 had monkeys that had wings you know aren't monkeys mischievous enough without the ability to fly i

00:30:42.360 mean that really creeped me out that a monkey could fly so what's the idea behind a human monkey hybrid 0.98

00:30:48.920 is there some labor shortage and they need you know they need cheap labor behind the counter

00:30:54.200 you think about this so all the strength of a higher primate the cunning of a human without the

00:31:02.520 humanity of a human we are screwed this is a super army that's what i see i never thought of that

00:31:09.540 i'm scared um we should move along though what a tangent sheila we should move along because uh

00:31:17.720 mark garrettson uh you know i gotta tell you i always say when i list the mps of the liberals or

00:31:25.500 when i talk about them that this one is the stupidest one or this one is the stupidest one like 0.91

00:31:29.860 for example quite frequently i accuse seamus o'regan of being the stupidest mp parliament

00:31:34.780 but mark garrettson boy he put on his running shoes and he's coming around the corner he's

00:31:40.280 really catching up to seamus o'regan because he is terrible at twitter and he uh weighed in on the

00:31:46.680 controversy of katie telford being called to testify um at the house uh affairs committee to discuss

00:31:54.560 election interference look at this so mark garrettson uh you know what i think today he

00:32:02.500 wins dumbest uh he says uh i think it's unacceptable to demand staff appear before committee the only 0.80

00:32:07.920 chiefs of staff to come forward before committee to my knowledge this is where it's because you don't

00:32:13.660 have any knowledge mark have been after they're out of politics having said this i appreciate katie

00:32:19.500 telford's willingness to do whatever necessary after three weeks of filibustering to make parliament

00:32:24.360 work even if that means breaking a 300 year old tradition as said by pierre polyev when he refused

00:32:29.560 to send staff in 2010 uh but that's not true because uh chiefs of staff have um they've testified in the

00:32:38.180 past it's just that mark is um not a very smart man what does he mean sheila by a 300 year old tradition

00:32:45.820 because our country is just a little over 150 years old he's a very stupid man he is like between him

00:32:58.400 seamus o'regan and omar al-jabra the goblin you're like the goblin the hog are just i know they're just

00:33:07.960 the stupidest people um don't forget um pinocchio or i mean mendicino he has to be up there 0.72

00:33:15.480 oh yeah yeah he's really dumb too see this is the problem anytime i talk about them i'm like no

00:33:21.840 that guy's the dumbest that guy's the dumbest i think though um maybe the dumbest will always be 0.94

00:33:27.660 katherine mckenna who's gone on to work for the united nations so wow they really fail upwards these

00:33:34.540 people don't they oh well and as like twitter had to put a warning label on his tweet that one that we

00:33:41.620 just read by the way i was just looking out of the corner of my eye so it says readers added more

00:33:46.760 context they thought people might want to know thanks to twitter thank you elon musk by the way

00:33:52.400 making twitter improved twitter okay so readers added telford has actually testified multiple times

00:34:00.620 uh she testified during the we scandal and the vance investigation and there was actually bipartisan

00:34:06.640 support to have her testify so not only is it not a 300 year old tradition in our under 200 year

00:34:15.180 uh old country but telford herself has previously testified in i suppose other liberal scandals

00:34:23.680 that we lost track of over the last seven years and sheila to me that speaks of how huge this scandal

00:34:32.160 really is but you know what i gotta tell you my friend um i'm not hopeful at all about her testimony

00:34:38.700 because i think almost every question is going to be answered with one of two answers which is

00:34:45.180 i don't know or i cannot release that information based on national security concerns you mark my words

00:34:53.320 it is going to be the biggest nothing burger that this woman delivers oh we should just finish up one 1.00

00:34:59.420 little thing on the china file and then uh we should hit an ad break because we're 35 minutes in

00:35:04.180 to a one hour show and we haven't done an ad break and i can already hear the complaints coming my way

00:35:10.140 um so it's it's from black locks on the federal government blacklist of um freedom convoy sympathizers

00:35:20.400 it was emailed to foreign banks so the blacklist of the convoy supporters didn't just happen here in

00:35:28.680 canada financial institutions um insurers even farm credit canada what a disgrace you people are

00:35:37.100 um that were canceling people's accounts or denying them credit in the case of farm credit canada

00:35:44.360 or canceling their insurance seizing their bank accounts it went further than that so the liberals

00:35:50.620 emailed people's financial information and their names as enemies of the state this isn't enemies of

00:35:57.580 the state list by the way and they sent it to foreign banks on wall street and of course beijing

00:36:06.560 so uh this came oh this is an order paper question that came back from arnold vearson really great

00:36:16.860 conservative mp in northern alberta um and he wanted information on just who the liberals shared

00:36:23.780 your political leanings with um in an attempt to get you canceled and uh it went as far as well as fargo

00:36:31.120 the bank of china the state bank of india city bank of new york the habib bank of pakistan

00:36:37.080 hannah financial group of south korea another bank in india another bank in japan it gets crazy

00:36:43.520 all these people know your political leanings now you know sheila it's crazy but it's also chilling 1.00

00:36:50.920 and i should point out something later today i will be delivering our petition it's almost 10 000

00:36:56.720 names long to handong's constituency office in the people's republic of don valley north and for the

00:37:03.960 first time ever what we have done folks is we have removed your names from the petition and just putting

00:37:10.800 your initials and the reason is we don't want uh the people's republic of china to get your hands 1.00

00:37:18.540 to get their hands on your names i mean because we do know there are actually um police stations

00:37:25.560 chinese police stations operating in canada so we don't want you to get a shakedown from one of those 1.00

00:37:31.020 uh officers and i can't even believe i said that and secondly we don't want to give any names to

00:37:36.580 christia freeland so that she can do something uh to your banking you know sheila sometimes i don't 1.00

00:37:43.520 recognize our great dominion anymore the idea that a petition taking a stance engaging in a protest a

00:37:51.940 peaceful protest can result in the government coming after you like an anteater swallowing ants it is

00:37:59.660 absolutely disgraceful it is it is it's something we never had to consider before yep but it's something

00:38:06.880 we have to consider going forward is that um you know what does the government do with this information

00:38:13.780 now they've gotten away with canceling people once based on their political views and we know that

00:38:20.220 they are perfectly happy to turn over your information to the bank of china um if there might

00:38:27.740 be some unfortunate chinese expats who donated to the freedom convoy sorry about your luck and

00:38:33.340 i wish your family the best if they are still in china because we know what happens there um but

00:38:38.660 these are things we have to consider now and it's it's insane and you know and sheila that's how the

00:38:44.380 chinese police operate in canada as i understand and so far worldwide more than 230 000 chinese

00:38:51.580 nationals have gone back to china to atone for their crimes which might be just having a

00:38:58.040 impolite viewpoint of the uh communist regime in beijing but these police officers they're not

00:39:06.360 weaponized they don't wear a badge they just make a house call they say who they are and they say listen

00:39:12.120 we've been monitoring what you've had to say what you've written on social media we don't like it

00:39:17.220 um we can do this the easy way or the hard way which is to say you can get on a flight back

00:39:22.720 to china or we know you have friends and colleagues and family members in china we can go after them and

00:39:32.100 that's what is the wedge to make people leave and it's all done under the auspices of the way they

00:39:39.200 have sold this uh sheila to western nations is that you have a you have a problem with chinese telecom

00:39:47.320 fraud well we're the experts in on that file we know how to flush out those conniving rats but

00:39:54.480 when they spread their net it's not just telecom fraudsters it's citizens who have a like i said

00:40:03.020 an impolite viewpoint of the regime in beijing and this is disgraceful how this has ever been allowed

00:40:09.580 i mean would beijing ever allow the toronto police service to shut up shop there no and they're spying

00:40:16.860 us on us in ways we can't even imagine and their spying is like 30 years in advance of ours and

00:40:23.400 what i mean by that is i think tiktok is an intel gathering operation on our young people our future

00:40:31.620 cia agents our future csis agents our future military every day they gather compromise on them

00:40:38.620 and they get to know who their friends and family are so that they're easily manipulated but also

00:40:43.540 simultaneously tiktok is also rewiring their brains with the garbage pushed in front of them 0.58

00:40:49.740 so it causes social decay um so china will never have to take us over they'll have destroyed us in 1.00

00:40:55.300 advance um through the things that they do and of course then there's huawei you know huawei is just

00:41:00.140 the um telecom spy arm of the chinese state they helped develop uh software that identified

00:41:09.460 uighurs on the street for getting snatched and grabbed um they did that through facial recognition 0.99

00:41:17.440 and that was happening during the time that we were considering giving them just access to the

00:41:22.260 canadian 5g network it just really bizarre stuff um and i can't wait to have a government that will

00:41:29.540 actually disentangle from china and see it for the evil empire that it really is um we should oh before we 0.96

00:41:38.060 but i just want to say to end that thought sheila uh but let's be fair yes the chinese are excelling

00:41:44.420 in the fields of math and science to bring about all that kind of uh technological chicanery but 1.00

00:41:50.140 they don't have drag queen story time they don't have a shop teacher with enormous zed cup breasts 1.00

00:41:56.100 right alton district so uh take that uh you beijing bullies yeah in the meantime they're normalizing

00:42:05.060 that stuff to our kids by putting it in front of them on tiktok um while they're just like no we

00:42:11.280 don't do that in china sorry our kids are learning math our kids are going to win this war they're

00:42:17.820 going to win this war without firing a single bullet sheila oh they don't have to that's why they have 0.58

00:42:22.560 like 100 year plans and we can't get our act together 18 months um out you know like they they're

00:42:29.400 playing the long game and uh they're winning as i always say i'm not sure we actually did win the

00:42:35.060 cold war the front changed and we didn't realize um okay so we should uh we've got an ad break but

00:42:41.840 it's not really an ad break it's a teaser about something that um our friends alexa lavoie and 0.68

00:42:47.800 lincoln jay have been working on in the background and it is an incredible expose of what has been

00:42:54.400 happening at roxham road and they did it from the inside you won't believe it anyways let's let's

00:43:01.580 throw to that

00:43:02.120 you came to to mexico and did you ask for asylum yeah

00:43:15.300 you came to mexico and did you ask for asylum

00:43:26.540 you

00:43:28.080 you

00:43:56.540 Stay in your own country. I'm here with a purpose.

00:44:09.540 There is a process to determine whether someone is a refugee. There are steps to go through.

00:44:15.540 Those who are seeking to go somewhere else, not we're pushing or forcing, if they're seeking to go somewhere else, we are helping in the reticketing process.

00:44:24.540 There's so many homeless here and they're bringing people from other countries where there's people here struggling with mental illness.

00:44:31.540 The issue starts at our southern border where the U.S. has declined to enforce proper immigration.

00:44:37.540 And you allow them to live in a hotel, but yet the major crisis of homelessness is very, very big.

00:44:46.540 So I'm in Roxham Road and I'm waiting actually for Lincoln J to arrive.

00:44:55.540 He just arrived in Plattsburgh and took a cab.

00:45:01.540 Just like that, I'm in the back of a taxi cab waiting to go to Roxham Road.

00:45:11.540 Why wouldn't you ask that? You're running across the border.

00:45:13.540 We have to go to police or look at you.

00:45:16.540 Wow, Sheila, that is going to be a doozy. I know it.

00:45:29.540 The thing is, with all the subsidies the mainstream media is getting, why aren't they doing this kind of investigative journalism when it comes to Roxham Road, which is an international disgrace, by the way?

00:45:41.540 Because you're cheering for it. Speaking of which, while we were on air a little while ago, news broke because Biden was in Canada today.

00:45:53.540 And we'll go to the CBC on this.

00:45:56.540 Ottawa has reached a deal with the United States to allow it to close Roxham Road.

00:46:02.540 Why did we have to have a deal? Why didn't we just put up a fence?

00:46:04.540 We don't. We could just put up a fence.

00:46:06.540 It's not it's not a border crossing. Just put up a fence.

00:46:11.540 We didn't have to do any of this.

00:46:13.540 This is the biggest scam of the century. And I haven't read that story yet.

00:46:16.540 But they're saying, oh, well, there's a loophole.

00:46:19.540 No, there is no loophole.

00:46:21.540 You do not have to accept these refugees or illegal migrants into Canada. 1.00

00:46:27.540 According to the act, once they're in a safe haven country, i.e. the U.S., that's it.

00:46:32.540 They've crossed the finish line. And you can't use the excuse of, oh, mean Mr. Orange Trump is in power.

00:46:38.540 He might.

00:46:39.540 He's not there. It's yeah, that's ancient history now.

00:46:42.540 So this that story, it looks to me, is about a policy initiative which they've always had the ability to implement from day one.

00:46:53.540 Well, yeah, it looks like Justin Trudeau taking credit for brokering a deal to solve a problem he could have fixed with a chain link fence.

00:47:00.540 Exactly.

00:47:01.540 And some deportation orders.

00:47:03.540 And Alexa Lavoie has a story coming up where she went to the border because, you know, she's in Montreal. 0.97

00:47:09.540 She can go there.

00:47:10.540 But I'm reliably informed that there are a lot of journalists in Montreal taking subsidies from the federal government who could also just go on down to Roxham Road and do the same sort of investigative journalism that Alexa is doing.

00:47:20.540 But they won't because they're cheering for this sort of stuff.

00:47:23.540 And by the way, some of the people who are the strongest in opposition to what's happening at Roxham Road are new Canadians, people who did everything right to get here. 0.99

00:47:36.540 And they love Canada and they don't want to see our citizenship diminished by people who are not following the rules to come here. 0.82

00:47:43.540 But Alexa found just by looking on the ground documents that showed that people were being deported from the United States because they didn't qualify for asylum there.

00:47:53.540 So instead of going and allowing yourself to be deported, they ran for the Canadian border.

00:48:01.540 And so their country shopping is what's happening here.

00:48:04.540 It diminishes our citizenship and it puts people who are trying to do things the right way way back in the queue.

00:48:12.540 And those are the people I want here.

00:48:14.540 I want people who love our country enough to follow our rules.

00:48:17.540 But you know what, Sheila, if I may add, because this is what Marxists always do.

00:48:21.540 Look how they change the language.

00:48:23.540 It's not an illegal border crossing.

00:48:26.540 It's irregular.

00:48:27.540 Irregular.

00:48:28.540 It's not an illegal migrant.

00:48:29.540 It's an irregular.

00:48:31.540 I mean, they water it down.

00:48:34.540 They soften it.

00:48:35.540 I mean, if I went out and robbed a bank, I'm not going to be described as an irregular bank customer.

00:48:41.540 I'm going to be called a bank robber.

00:48:43.540 But apparently when it comes to this issue, we can't use a harsh term like illegal, even though, you know, they're crossing the border illegally.

00:48:54.540 Yeah, by the way, I'm just we're reading this.

00:48:58.540 We're seeing the news just like everybody else.

00:49:00.540 But as I read this article, I'm like, oh, this actually doesn't solve a problem.

00:49:03.540 It just says we're actually going to make it easier for them because now they don't have to walk across the border at Roxham.

00:49:09.540 Here's what's happening.

00:49:11.540 The Trudeau government has reached a deal with the United States on a regular migration, which will allow Ottawa, which they always could have done to close the Roxham Road irregular crossing at the Canada U.S. border.

00:49:23.540 It's literally a ditch with a makeshift police station there.

00:49:26.540 We saw all the fences they were able to put up in Ottawa.

00:49:30.540 Hire that guy again. 0.94

00:49:32.540 You know, he's he's an approved contractor for the feds and tell him to just put it up at Roxham Road in between those two parallel roads.

00:49:38.540 Anyway, sources told Radio Canada or as they say, Radio Canada, that Ottawa has agreed to welcome.

00:49:47.540 This is the part where I'm like, oh, they didn't actually solve the problem.

00:49:49.540 They just said, why don't you come through Pearson?

00:49:51.540 So sources told Radio Canada that Ottawa has agreed to welcome a certain number of migrants through official channels that precise details of the deal are not known.

00:50:03.540 So this comes just ahead of Joe Biden's planned trip to Canada and they're going to get a photo op and say, look, we've solved the migrant process crossing crisis, but they didn't actually solve it.

00:50:17.540 They said, oh, you don't you don't actually have to go through there now.

00:50:21.540 Um, you can actually just get a direct flight to Pearson or Trudeau Airport, Montreal.

00:50:28.540 How does that solve anything?

00:50:30.540 It doesn't. It doesn't. We're still getting migrant. 1.00

00:50:32.540 They just don't have to, like, take a cab to the border.

00:50:35.540 They can just actually instead of getting to upstate New York and then taking a cab, they can actually fly just directly into Pearson, it sounds like, and then apply for asylum again in a second country instead of the safe first country that they landed in.

00:50:51.540 This doesn't stop. You know what's going to happen to Pearson? Holy moly.

00:50:55.540 Um, it's going to be nonstop there.

00:50:57.540 Um, and it's going to like, just, it's going to be mayhem at Pearson.

00:51:02.540 Yeah. And, uh, and of course Pearson's new media rules, Sheila, as you have to give them 24 hours notice, uh, that you're covering a story and they're going to prove or disprove that by the way, uh, not buying it.

00:51:17.540 They're just going to show up as I've always done in my journalistic career.

00:51:20.540 And when they get to the major cities of Toronto or Montreal, uh, then they're offloaded, uh, primarily to Cornwall, Windsor.

00:51:30.540 And if you can believe it, folks, Niagara Falls, more than 2,000 hotel rooms in Niagara Falls are housing some 5,000 plus migrants.

00:51:40.540 Cause there's either two or three migrants, uh, per room. 0.98

00:51:43.540 Gee, I hope they, um, get some nice room, Sheila, a view of the falls, you know, the, the heart shaped hot tub.

00:51:49.540 I mean, we don't want to make it too rough for them in the honeymoon capital of the world.

00:51:53.540 Do we now?

00:51:55.540 80 plus, I think it's 82% of illegal border crossers require what they call accommodation at the expense of the Canadian taxpayer.

00:52:03.540 So I'm, I'm for, um, immigration, but I'm completely in favor of immigration, but I'm in favor of orderly.

00:52:13.540 You know, like, uh, and I'm actually pro refugee, which is why I was so angry. 1.00

00:52:25.540 When Justin Trudeau no longer prioritized Christian refugees from the Middle East in the middle of the ISIS genocide.

00:52:31.540 Um, but there are rules to follow to ensure that we don't collapse the social system for everybody that's here and everybody that plans to come here through the appropriate channels.

00:52:43.540 And you know, Sheila, when we look, this is the other thing we have to address the cost.

00:52:49.540 And it's not just the cost of those hotel rooms, but we're looking at meals.

00:52:54.540 Uh, and I'm basing this on our Niagara Falls report.

00:52:57.540 When Lincoln Jay and I went to Niagara Falls and saw this firsthand, uh, a $75, uh, a day meal allowance.

00:53:04.540 Clothing, uh, transportation.

00:53:07.540 And when I say transportation, oh no, no, no, no, no.

00:53:09.540 Not public transit.

00:53:11.540 Not even an Uber.

00:53:12.540 We're talking, uh, taxi cab classic.

00:53:15.540 You know, it costs a lot of money to get around that taxi cab.

00:53:18.540 I can't afford cabs, Sheila.

00:53:20.540 Um, so you add up all that, um, additional expenses and you're talking several more millions and millions of dollars.

00:53:30.540 Yeah.

00:53:31.540 Um, we should, um, move ahead from this just cause we have a couple of things left in the YouTube headline to avoid me getting angry emails saying, oh, I tuned in to hear you talk about that.

00:53:40.540 And then you didn't, um, we should get to those.

00:53:43.540 Um, and then we'll do chats.

00:53:46.540 So left in the YouTube headline, we have, um, the Democrats in the United States are delaying once again, the anticipated arrest of former president Donald Trump.

00:53:59.540 I think they're realizing that this will weaponize middle of the road Republicans, the Nikki Haley types, the Jeb Bush types, um, the Mitt Romney types, people who are sort of in that mushy middle camp.

00:54:16.540 Yeah.

00:54:17.540 All of a sudden, when the Democrats are perverting the justice system and perverting the, um, grand jury system to weaponize it against your political enemies, because as they say in the United States, a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich.

00:54:34.540 If you ask them to, I think they're figuring out this is going to be a very, very bad for us in the polls.

00:54:42.300 If we do indeed kick for the third or fourth time at the can of, um, Donald Trump in the anticipation that he will probably be the declared nominee, the Republican nominee and the Democrats have a Swiss cheese brained Alzheimer patient, Joe Biden, as their presumed nominee.

00:55:04.400 Uh, I think they're realizing that this is going to go bad, but now I don't think they know how to back themselves out of it.

00:55:11.180 So they just keep delaying the indictment by a day, by a day, by a day.

00:55:15.360 I don't think they know how to get out of this mess that they've gotten themselves into.

00:55:19.860 No, I think you're right, Sheila.

00:55:21.720 Uh, careful what you wish for today.

00:55:23.700 It's a, uh, ex Republican president being hauled before a grand jury tomorrow.

00:55:28.580 It might be a Democrat one.

00:55:30.020 Is that the precedent you really want to do?

00:55:31.900 By the way, while you were speaking, um, the graphic of the ABC news story, uh, was being shown.

00:55:38.540 And like I said, how the language changes and how words matter.

00:55:42.560 Um, this, uh, non-disclosure agreement with Stormy Daniels is continually in the mainstream media referred to as hush money.

00:55:54.000 And I can tell you ABC news itself, I bet you they get into an NDA, a non-disclosure agreement every week.

00:56:00.640 And they don't call that hush money, but when it's Trump, it's hush money, not an NDA.

00:56:07.280 And as far as I'm concerned, look at the facts of the matter.

00:56:11.040 Um, I think President Trump has a great case to sue Stormy Daniels.

00:56:17.200 She has violated the non-disclosure agreement, or as the mainstream media calls it, hush money.

00:56:23.800 So, um, I don't think there's any there there in going after this point.

00:56:29.420 As a matter of fact, I'd much rather see, oh, I don't know, Hunter Biden indicted, uh, given the content on that laptop.

00:56:37.360 But we know where, uh, the left is on that.

00:56:40.680 Uh, if you look at Twitter under the old regime, uh, the New York Post that broke that story,

00:56:45.720 they lost their Twitter account for reporting factual news, Sheila.

00:56:50.700 So, um, you're right.

00:56:52.320 Maybe they are going to back down.

00:56:55.340 I will tell you this.

00:56:56.480 I will bet you $1,000 that there is no way Donald Trump is going to see the inside of a prison cell.

00:57:03.960 But this is what his enemies want.

00:57:06.640 They want to see Trump in the orange jumpsuit.

00:57:10.120 They want to see him handcuffed with the leg irons on.

00:57:13.280 Again, it's not going to happen.

00:57:14.940 And by the way, if it doesn't happen today, I'll tell you, Sheila, it's not going to happen tomorrow

00:57:18.420 because I understand the grand jury doesn't sit on Friday.

00:57:21.540 So, uh, I guess we'd be looking, uh, to Monday at the earliest.

00:57:25.580 But, um, I think you're right.

00:57:27.620 I think when you see Democrats themselves saying, uh, do we really want to go there?

00:57:33.260 And, and there's the added thing, Sheila, won't this just embolden Donald Trump's base?

00:57:39.140 I mean, you know, the injustice of him being hauled before, um, a grand jury for a person

00:57:48.440 who violated the non-disclosure agreement, which of course is called hush money when it comes

00:57:53.640 to Republican.

00:57:54.520 When it's a Democrat, it's an NDA.

00:57:56.840 The hypocrisy is off the charts.

00:57:59.220 You know, I just, this reminds me of something else though, and it was, it's, I'm not going

00:58:08.000 to take credit for it.

00:58:08.780 I'm reminded of it by Anne McElhaney and Phelan McAleer, uh, two American podcasters from Ireland

00:58:16.380 who made the incredible movie Frack Nation.

00:58:19.980 And, uh, they were talking about the hypocrisy of the conservative movement on this yesterday.

00:58:26.000 And they're, they're conservatives, um, although I think non-partisan sort of like me.

00:58:29.780 So, uh, I sort of heeded what they had to say, but what Trump is really in trouble for

00:58:35.320 is that the NDA money that changed hands, they claim it was a benefit to his campaign.

00:58:42.500 Yeah.

00:58:43.000 It should have gone because shutting her up was a benefit to the campaign. 0.88

00:58:48.020 And so they play like loosey goosey with these campaign finance laws, because if what

00:58:52.680 she had to say had come out, um, if what she had to say had come out, it would have hurt

00:58:59.020 the campaign.

00:58:59.500 So it was a benefit to the campaign to keep her shut up, whatever, by the way, Trump's

00:59:03.300 not going to sue her.

00:59:03.880 What is she, what is he going to get out of her?

00:59:05.680 She has nothing.

00:59:06.380 There was pictures of her having a garage sale to try to like, um, make some money after 1.00

00:59:12.220 her former lawyer took her for a ride there.

00:59:14.320 And now he's in jail.

00:59:15.080 Um, but yeah, what is he going to get out of her, her implants?

00:59:17.940 Like there, she's got nothing, but Anne McElhaney and Phelan McAleer.

00:59:23.780 Is there a market for used implant, Sheila?

00:59:26.300 I don't know.

00:59:27.200 I have no idea.

00:59:28.520 I have no idea.

00:59:30.400 Uh, anyway, uh, Anne McElhaney and Phelan McAleer rightfully pointed out how conservatives

00:59:36.480 have done this in the past, um, with John Edwards.

00:59:39.900 So John, remember they fast and loose with the campaign finance laws.

00:59:44.620 So John Edwards, he was the, he was probably going to win that Democrat nomination for

00:59:50.980 2008.

00:59:52.580 Um, he was a Senator.

00:59:53.940 He got involved in an affair with a very, very weird woman named rail Hunter.

01:00:00.300 I think she can talk to him in a bar and said something about his vibrations or whatever.

01:00:04.060 And he was instantly smitten.

01:00:05.860 If somebody talks to me about my vibrations in a bar, I'm like headed the other way.

01:00:10.160 I'm making, I'm leaving before you roofie me.

01:00:12.440 Um, but, uh, so he ended up having an affair with this woman and a baby, by the way.

01:00:19.900 And then I think the campaign hired her, hired her and put her up in the most expensive apartment 1.00

01:00:30.200 that she could find because her, I guess her spiritual advisor, again, kookaloo, uh, her

01:00:36.220 spiritual advisor said, okay, well, there are three, these three apartments, but this is

01:00:40.300 the one with the highest vibrations, the highest vibrations one being the most expensive.

01:00:45.200 So they put her up in this hotel or apartment, whatever.

01:00:49.500 And I think that was being paid through the campaign because she was, I don't know, I

01:00:52.960 think produce all of a sudden producing videos for the campaign, which I think was just child

01:00:57.860 support through the campaign.

01:00:59.480 But anyway, uh, what happened was his, him putting her into that hotel room or whatever

01:01:09.360 it was condo penthouse, whatever they say, and he paid out of pocket for that.

01:01:16.400 They said that should have been a campaign, uh, expense because him having the perception

01:01:26.500 of a happy marriage was a benefit to his campaign.

01:01:30.800 So by him putting his mistress somewhere to keep her, to shut her up and him paying out

01:01:37.540 of pocket for it, like he should have, they said that should have went through the campaign

01:01:42.360 because it was a campaign expense because his happy marriage was a benefit to the campaign.

01:01:47.100 And so they got him on a campaign finance violation.

01:01:49.580 It was, they just abused the campaign finance laws to get rid of John Edwards.

01:01:55.520 And, uh, he was a Democrat and the conservatives did it to him.

01:01:59.200 So they do this stuff all the time on both sides.

01:02:02.360 Um, and I don't, I, but I don't think it's going to work this time.

01:02:07.780 Well, um, like I said, the grand jury doesn't sit on Fridays.

01:02:13.280 Uh, that's a nice gig, isn't it, Sheila?

01:02:15.200 Three, three day work week for that.

01:02:17.100 I mean, no weekend.

01:02:18.580 Uh, so maybe, uh, I, I don't think anything's going to happen today, but like I said, uh, for

01:02:24.420 those Trump haters out there that want, uh, that video of him sitting in a jail cell, it's

01:02:31.660 just not going to happen.

01:02:32.860 But from that, we also, uh, cause I see it's in our, um, uh, title of our daily roundup

01:02:38.760 lineup, uh, pastor Derek gets bail.

01:02:42.500 Wow.

01:02:43.220 What's the story there, Sheila?

01:02:45.280 Yeah, it was a wild day in court.

01:02:46.940 Um, a lot of anti-Christian sentiment as I had expected.

01:02:51.040 So, um, and the reason I was able to listen to Anne and Phelan's, uh, podcast is cause I

01:02:57.820 made the eight hour round trip to Calgary to cover this because I knew there would be no

01:03:02.340 other journalists in the room.

01:03:04.060 Um, and we do have Calgary journalists, but one of them is deployed to Lethbridge to cover

01:03:07.680 a trial there.

01:03:08.260 And Angelica was outside with the protester.

01:03:10.420 So I came down to cover it.

01:03:12.460 And, uh, so Derek has been in jail for, well, he's out now, but about a week, um, for protesting

01:03:19.500 at a drag queen story hour, which according to the police was in direct violation of his

01:03:25.940 conditions of release on protesting at previous drag queen story hour.

01:03:31.040 He was charged with mischief and causing a disturbance at that when he went into the

01:03:36.040 seat in library and, uh, heckled a drag queen, which apparently is against the law.

01:03:41.080 Um, according to these people.

01:03:43.520 So Derek went last week to protest at another library, but here's the thing.

01:03:51.720 Derek was arrested 160 meters from the front of the library.

01:03:58.760 Derek's conditions say you need to stay 200 meters away.

01:04:02.040 So they got him on a technicality, but it was pretty clear to the judge that Derek had

01:04:09.500 made a good faith attempt to comply by his conditions.

01:04:14.620 They got him on a 400 or a 40 meter technicality.

01:04:18.920 And his lawyer rightfully pointed out if he were trying to breach the conditions, as opposed

01:04:25.580 to comply with the spirit of the conditions, he would have just been at the front door barging

01:04:28.840 in, but he didn't do that.

01:04:30.320 He was back and the police, according to the crown, didn't warn him that he was in violation.

01:04:36.900 They didn't say like, Hey, Derek, I think you're like at 150, 160.

01:04:39.680 Would you mind going over there?

01:04:40.780 They never gave him that opportunity.

01:04:42.060 They just breached him immediately.

01:04:44.260 Outrageous.

01:04:45.320 And Sheila, may I ask?

01:04:46.800 Because, you know, this might sound like a gag, but it isn't.

01:04:50.640 Were the Calgary police, did they have a tape measure out?

01:04:53.640 And they were actually measuring the physical distance?

01:04:56.800 Because let's face it, 40 meters and a 200 meter perimeter, that's nothing.

01:05:02.380 And like you said, they could have said, Sir, you're 40 meters too far in.

01:05:07.060 Go to that lamppost or whatever.

01:05:10.020 Like, how did the police know where the 160 meter mark was?

01:05:15.040 They did GPS mapping is what, from what I understand.

01:05:19.320 And you can see there's a video of them breaching him, picking him up on the breach.

01:05:24.000 And they never warned him.

01:05:24.960 They never said like, Hey, would you mind just going over there?

01:05:28.440 And it was clear, like anytime he's arrested, he just goes, he doesn't resist.

01:05:33.380 He's not violent.

01:05:34.220 Um, so he was released on $5,000, no cash bail, um, no contact or public statements with certain

01:05:42.200 named people from the Seton library events.

01:05:44.200 So the people who had given statements against him, uh, no contact with participants or performers

01:05:48.820 at drag events, no contact or interference with any, um, at a, anyone at a public or private

01:05:55.580 LGBTQ event.

01:05:56.860 So that means he has to stay 300 meters away from these drag events, but outside of that 1.00

01:06:03.020 300 meters, he can't bother anybody who's trying to enter the event.

01:06:07.160 So if they have to run the gauntlet of pastor Derek, um, he can't bother them.

01:06:12.000 And then the standard prohibition on weapons or guns or anything like that.

01:06:16.200 Um, but when I was in the courtroom, it was very anti-Christian.

01:06:21.140 Um, the crown prosecutor was saying things that eventually the judge had to stop her and

01:06:27.020 say, where's the evidence of what you're saying?

01:06:29.180 She kept saying that pastor Derek had said that people in the LGBTQ and then some other

01:06:35.740 letters, that community, um, I heard it 20 times yesterday and I just, whatever.

01:06:41.920 Um, but people from that community, she said that pastor Derek had called them dirty and

01:06:47.720 called for them to be eliminated.

01:06:49.060 And she said this multiple times.

01:06:51.040 So finally the judge said, you haven't shown me any proof that he said that, like you're

01:06:56.320 saying that he's making a call for genocide, if that's the case, you need to charge him

01:07:00.780 with a hate crime, but he didn't say any of those things.

01:07:03.720 And when the judge called her on it, she said, okay, well, maybe he didn't say those

01:07:07.300 things.

01:07:07.820 Uh, the judge asked for proof of some of the hateful rhetoric that, uh, pastor Derek had

01:07:13.800 said that she said was, um, I guess, uh, would amount to hate.

01:07:22.760 And that was another thing too, uh, Derek's lawyer pointed out like, look, this, these

01:07:27.220 are charges of mischief and causing a disturbance.

01:07:29.660 You want to elevate those for some reason to the level of a hate crime.

01:07:33.540 If that's the case, you need to charge him with a hate crime, but you don't have enough

01:07:36.520 evidence to do that because nothing he said there is a hate crime.

01:07:39.660 So you can't hold them behind bars as though he has a hate crime.

01:07:44.200 He doesn't.

01:07:45.500 Um, also the judge pointed out like, Hey, you're crazy to want to keep them behind bars.

01:07:49.000 If we can find a way to get them out and give them conditions that he can comply with, because

01:07:53.180 he's at 11 days of pretrial custody time and a half, he will never see the inside of a jail

01:07:59.760 cell if he's convicted of everything that he had.

01:08:02.020 Um, so, uh, let me just, I'm just trying to find my, in my tweets here.

01:08:09.020 So the crown read from apparently damning statements made by Reimer against the LGBT community or,

01:08:17.780 and this is evidence according to them that he will re-offend.

01:08:21.080 So this is what they said.

01:08:24.140 We have to follow our conviction.

01:08:25.440 This is what Derek said.

01:08:26.460 This is the damning statements.

01:08:27.660 We have to follow our convictions.

01:08:29.320 I don't know.

01:08:29.600 It's generally good advice.

01:08:30.840 I give that advice to my kids every day.

01:08:32.340 We have to do what God calls us to do.

01:08:34.420 Again, that's Christian orthodoxy.

01:08:36.140 I have to challenge these conditions.

01:08:38.360 That's his legal right to have a bail review.

01:08:42.060 In my cell, I was praying a lot.

01:08:44.520 Actually, I think that's where he found God.

01:08:45.780 The first time around is when he was convicted of violence in, uh, like up until I think about

01:08:52.000 2011, 2013, 2015, that's where he found the Lord.

01:08:56.760 Um, a burning, he has a burning desire to do God's will.

01:09:00.580 He's compelled by the Holy spirit.

01:09:02.560 What's more important, my freedom or doing God's will.

01:09:05.040 This is about light versus darkness.

01:09:06.800 We don't hate people.

01:09:07.860 We hate the sin.

01:09:08.760 That's like Jesus's advice.

01:09:11.660 Um, and it's worthy to suffer in God's name.

01:09:14.140 It's Lent.

01:09:15.000 This is the season of suffering.

01:09:16.380 I would say these exact things with this crown want to put me in jail for this.

01:09:20.420 Um, she also said that, um, where, where, let me just go through this.

01:09:29.740 Um, um, she said, this is what Derek's lawyer said.

01:09:37.960 Derek's statements are religiously charged and not everybody is going to agree with his

01:09:41.740 placed value on the Bible.

01:09:43.680 Some people may find his comments rude, but he's still entitled to protest.

01:09:48.240 And that was one of the things that they wanted to ensure was in the conditions that Derek's

01:09:52.640 right to protest.

01:09:53.420 These things that he feels biblically charged to do was still, there was a balance between

01:09:59.740 making sure that he doesn't, I guess, annoy people in the LGBT community, which apparently

01:10:04.700 is a crime in Calgary and his constitutionally protected right to protest.

01:10:09.380 Um, so the crown also said like, we can't let him out because he's threatened to, he's repeatedly

01:10:18.280 threatened to reoffend and the judge or, and the crown said, um, her evidence of that was,

01:10:26.140 he said repeatedly that he will be obedient to God above the government or police, which

01:10:31.620 is biblical orthodoxy.

01:10:33.640 Uh, she said that, uh, Derek spews hate.

01:10:36.620 He incites hatred through his words.

01:10:40.160 Um, yeah, she said that.

01:10:42.140 And, uh, there was one more thing.

01:10:45.880 She said, the crown tried to argue that Derek saying homosexuality is a sin is inciting hate

01:10:51.960 under a hate crimes law, which he's not charged with by the way, because she knows that that

01:10:56.100 won't pass the sniff test.

01:10:58.100 The judge disagreed.

01:10:59.360 And so did Derek's lawyer pointing out that one of the exceptions to the hate crimes law is

01:11:05.080 belief in a, in a religious text.

01:11:06.960 So she was just doing everything she could to keep him behind bars yesterday, even though

01:11:10.740 if he's convicted, he will walk with time served.

01:11:14.700 Unbelievable, Sheila.

01:11:15.680 And, you know, I don't know if we can get back to those bail conditions because something

01:11:19.680 jumped out at me.

01:11:20.580 We've talked about this before and it was something where, um, there's a condition where he has

01:11:25.620 to maintain a certain distance from public or private LGBT, et cetera, events.

01:11:32.400 Now, could that possibly mean, uh, I think we got it here.

01:11:37.540 I think super producer Afrin's founded.

01:11:39.360 Um, so no contact interference with anyone at any public or private LGBTQ event.

01:11:47.700 So in other words, Sheila, what if you walked into a Tim Hortons or a Starbucks and there's

01:11:53.120 a gathering of members of that community there, uh, just having their book of the month discussion,

01:11:58.600 uh, would that be in violation of his, uh, bail agreement?

01:12:03.740 I think it is.

01:12:04.700 So how is he supposed to know?

01:12:06.740 Like he's a psychic, uh, like the amazing Kreskin who is in a particular room or not.

01:12:12.360 Um, I just think those bail conditions are designed to make him fail and breach the bail.

01:12:18.920 Well, this was their attempt to split the baby because previously his conditions said

01:12:24.740 that, uh, he could not have any contact with anyone from the LGBT community directly or indirectly.

01:12:33.620 What does that mean?

01:12:34.800 So you can't talk to someone on the phone.

01:12:36.240 Like if I call the bank and the guy on the other line is gay and I don't know, and I'm 0.90

01:12:41.980 Derek, have I breached my bail conditions?

01:12:44.500 Derek regularly, regularly feeds the homeless in downtown Calgary.

01:12:49.420 That's one of the things that a mission seven ministries does.

01:12:52.360 He would never deny someone access to a sandwich or a granola bar or a juice if they were gay,

01:12:58.420 but he would breach his conditions if he handed it to them.

01:13:02.240 So this was his attempt to like, if he went into Starbucks and said, uh, I'd love, uh, a large,

01:13:09.940 whatever they serve at their fancy coffee, but I'm more of a McDonald's girl.

01:13:13.400 Um, but you know, if he went in there and he asked for a large coffee, he would have

01:13:17.580 to quiz the barista on their sexuality before his money changed hands.

01:13:21.660 And so these were, I guess this is six of one, half a dozen of another.

01:13:25.760 It's not perfect.

01:13:27.260 Um, but it's not as bad as it was.

01:13:29.120 Yeah.

01:13:29.600 Yeah.

01:13:29.980 I mean, you know, it sounds perverse, but he walks into say a McDonald's and says, you

01:13:36.080 know, I'd like to put it in a food order, but before I do, um, you wouldn't happen to

01:13:40.060 be gay, lesbian, trans, bisexual, pansexual, and the rest of the 17 letters on down.

01:13:47.420 Uh, first of all, that would be a breach of privacy, but, uh, that you're trying to, to

01:13:52.480 do to the server.

01:13:53.340 But that's the way those bail conditions are written.

01:13:57.060 As far as my understanding is, did that one get removed, Sheila?

01:14:00.780 That one was removed.

01:14:02.140 So it became LGBTQ events.

01:14:05.340 So as in Derek couldn't barge in to disrupt a gay wedding, which he's never done anyways. 0.55

01:14:10.220 He seems acutely focused on drag queen story hours happening at the public library paid

01:14:15.900 for by the taxpayer.

01:14:17.000 That seems to be where his issue lies.

01:14:19.220 He's not out there, you know, kicking in the door at the local United church, which is

01:14:23.320 I think is just like a, a self-help group now with a rainbow flag and a crucifix that

01:14:29.600 miss doesn't have Jesus on it.

01:14:31.400 Um, he doesn't do any of those things.

01:14:33.380 He only worries about drag queen story hours at the municipally funded venue, um, which it's

01:14:41.880 your right to protest what the government is doing with your money rightly or wrongly.

01:14:45.640 Like that's your right in a free society, um, except Calgary is no longer a free society.

01:14:50.300 So they, they did their best to manage that.

01:14:53.120 And Sheila, there's a sidebar story to all this that I really want to get a resolution

01:14:58.020 to, cause I don't think it's being reported, but forget about hate crimes.

01:15:02.040 Forget about thought crimes.

01:15:03.320 How about crime crimes?

01:15:04.740 And by that, I mean what we saw the pastor physically removed, thrown to the floor, uh,

01:15:11.360 by two Lugans, um, that is physical assault caught on camera.

01:15:16.460 Not he said, she said, did those two face charges?

01:15:20.700 Uh, no.

01:15:21.500 And that was actually pointed out in the bail hearing.

01:15:23.300 Um, because Derek has a history of violence.

01:15:27.700 This is why he found the Lord.

01:15:29.240 This is why he does ministry.

01:15:30.860 This is why he does ministry with people with histories of criminality and, and addiction

01:15:37.560 and, and gang violence in the downtown court.

01:15:41.400 This is why he does it because he was them.

01:15:43.720 So he knows how to speak directly to them, but that was pointed out in court.

01:15:48.560 They said like, Hey, the crown said like, Hey, this guy's got a history of violence.

01:15:52.180 Not recently.

01:15:53.100 Um, but his lawyer pointed out like, yeah, that was a man who struggled with violence.

01:16:00.100 But if we look at his behavior now, he doesn't struggle with violence.

01:16:04.160 When the police arrest him, he go willingly.

01:16:05.880 He went limp when they tried to arrest him at, um, the last library protest and look at

01:16:12.800 that passively allows it.

01:16:15.140 He could have fought back, get a punch that guy right in the head, but he didn't.

01:16:19.480 He passively allowed himself to be assaulted at the hands of these people.

01:16:24.380 And yet he's the guy being arrested.

01:16:26.600 And he's the guy, the crown is saying, we need to hold him in jail indefinitely because

01:16:31.520 he has a violent history.

01:16:33.340 He could have reacted violently at any one of these points.

01:16:35.840 He's proven himself that he doesn't.

01:16:37.880 And the Derek's lawyer, uh, Ben Allison.

01:16:41.580 Great.

01:16:42.040 If you get in trouble, you want to talk to Ben, um, because he did point out, he said,

01:16:46.320 you can't say that he has his history of violence.

01:16:49.220 You should follow him now because here, here are the reasons he's not violence.

01:16:52.520 When he was met with violence at that protest, he didn't respond with violence.

01:16:57.660 Um, and he did point out like, look, the only people being charged here is the guy who allowed

01:17:02.160 himself to be passively thrown to the floor and not the people who assaulted him on camera.

01:17:05.980 So again, Sheila, if I went to a Calgary police station with that video evidence and I said,

01:17:11.620 look, I'm being thrown to the floor by these two hooligans.

01:17:15.080 Um, here's, you know, the camera doesn't lie.

01:17:19.560 What is the Calgary police service position on why they're not laying charges on that?

01:17:24.780 Cause that, that is a real crime.

01:17:27.320 Yeah.

01:17:27.480 Well, I think, uh, and I don't want to put words into the mouths of people on the Calgary

01:17:32.540 police service.

01:17:33.180 I think most of the cops there are good cops.

01:17:35.220 Actually, um, when our team was outside yesterday, covering the protest, uh, cop came up and said,

01:17:41.520 Hey, thanks for the work that you guys do.

01:17:42.820 And I, I don't think all cops are bad.

01:17:44.860 I think actually you get into policing cause you love and care about your community and

01:17:47.900 want to make it a safer place.

01:17:49.420 That's why you go out and want to arrest dirtbags.

01:17:51.460 And you don't like when judges and justice of the peace, let them go.

01:17:54.440 Um, after you've arrested them repeatedly for real crimes, not protesting, um, but the Calgary

01:18:01.960 police service, I think they were ready to just call it even right.

01:18:05.780 They were saying, okay, well, well, we could probably lay a charge of mischief and, um,

01:18:10.300 causing a disturbance, but it looks like we've got somebody getting handsy here.

01:18:13.900 We're just going to call it a wash and not do anything about it until the mayor got involved.

01:18:20.180 Right.

01:18:20.500 That's when the charges happened here, the mayor went to Twitter, had a little Twitter

01:18:26.100 rant, um, and charges came days later.

01:18:29.420 So I think pressure, a political pressure came out of the mayor's office to the Calgary

01:18:34.200 police service, and then they acted and, and that's what happened there.

01:18:37.960 So I don't think, I honestly think Calgary police service just were like, you know what?

01:18:43.280 You did this, you did that.

01:18:44.700 Let's just sort it out in the wash until the mayor said, no, no, no.

01:18:49.800 You, we don't like what, why he's there to protest.

01:18:52.840 So now we have to put political pressure on everybody.

01:18:57.140 That mayor is a disgrace, Sheila.

01:18:59.240 She's the worst.

01:19:00.300 She's the worst.

01:19:01.100 Uh, hard to believe she's worse than John Tory.

01:19:04.540 Um, but here we are, Jody Gondek, um, and a normal, she blocked me on Twitter finally,

01:19:09.280 but a normal wiser politician would have made this Twitter rant, a phone call to somebody

01:19:15.040 at, uh, CPS, uh, but she didn't, uh, it would, it should have been an off the record phone

01:19:20.620 call.

01:19:20.900 If she wanted to put political pressure, that's what all politicians do. 1.00

01:19:23.880 Right.

01:19:24.240 But she didn't, she took to Twitter and said, the police aren't doing enough.

01:19:28.640 What are we going to do about it?

01:19:30.540 And so three days later, police went, showed up at his door and arrested him.

01:19:35.080 Um, wow.

01:19:36.820 Unbelievable.

01:19:37.480 Well, um, where does the story go from here?

01:19:40.940 Uh, is the pastor going to continue to protest these, uh, library?

01:19:46.440 Oh, okay.

01:19:47.000 So this is, the story's not over yet then, is it?

01:19:50.220 No.

01:19:50.520 And he's got a bail conditions review on his original, uh, conditions.

01:19:55.680 I think on the 29th, we're back in court for him.

01:19:59.180 And, uh, he's still got to fight those mischief and causing a disturbance charges in court.

01:20:05.840 He's still charged with a breach that he'll have to fight in court.

01:20:08.840 So, um, there's a long road ahead for pastor Derek.

01:20:13.220 Uh, he's going to do his best to, uh, comply with conditions.

01:20:17.380 If people want to see the report with, um, Angelica, they can find that on our website

01:20:23.100 at save pastor Derek.com.

01:20:26.040 Uh, you'll find all of the pastor Derek coverage, including my live tweets from inside the courtroom.

01:20:30.060 So you can see where I was directly quoting from the, just a totally make them up crown

01:20:35.500 prosecutor, um, who, by the way, I sit in the court.

01:20:39.780 Nobody knows who I am.

01:20:40.640 Right.

01:20:41.000 I don't like, I have my press pass, but I sort of have it tucked inside my jacket.

01:20:46.080 Cause I think people are less candid if they know there's a journalist sitting there.

01:20:50.040 And it was helpful yesterday because the crown was standing there talking to her colleagues

01:20:54.300 saying, Oh, I see pastor Derek's got his entourage outside.

01:20:57.900 I'm not going to go back to the office.

01:20:59.180 Cause maybe they will ambush me with tomatoes.

01:21:02.800 Oh, really?

01:21:03.580 Based on what?

01:21:05.240 Exactly.

01:21:05.760 Based on what these people are more likely to be the recipients of violence that crowns

01:21:10.320 like that don't seem to care about than to be the perpetrators of violence themselves.

01:21:15.000 Besides, have you seen the price of tomatoes lately?

01:21:18.540 Sheila, I mean, why not?

01:21:20.400 I started mine the other day.

01:21:21.400 Who's got that kind of coin, but you know, that's an outrageous statement.

01:21:25.840 Um, but I'll tell you, you know, these Calgary pastors, whether it's, uh, pastor Derek, uh,

01:21:32.940 protesting against drag queen story hour, whether it's pastor art, um, or what was the egregious

01:21:39.080 thing he did?

01:21:39.960 Uh, oh yes.

01:21:40.820 Feeding the homeless.

01:21:42.320 Jeez.

01:21:43.040 Uh, the state in Calgary will spare no expense when it comes to dragging, uh, these malicious

01:21:49.880 people before a justice is, uh, I, the, the world's upside down, Sheila.

01:21:55.760 You know, I always remember the words of a great, uh, Western philosopher, Gavin McInnes,

01:22:01.840 when he says F the police's bosses, he always makes it clear that he's not against cops.

01:22:09.420 And I definitely am not.

01:22:10.480 Um, but it's their political masters that are always angling for political positions.

01:22:16.680 Bill Blair, I'm looking at you, former police chief of Toronto, and now the biggest gun

01:22:22.300 grabber in this entire country, blaming law-abiding gun owners like me for the explosion of gun

01:22:28.140 crime.

01:22:28.480 He oversaw in Toronto.

01:22:30.980 Um, I, I remember that it's not the regular cops and in my personal experience, it was

01:22:37.920 the one cop.

01:22:38.740 I always think about the one cop at Grace Life Church who reminded me of that when you, uh,

01:22:43.620 you know, like people would give him a hard time.

01:22:45.120 Like what, why are you coming here to surveil this church for the crime of not turning away

01:22:49.780 congregants?

01:22:50.540 Uh, and he said, because you don't want, he said, you don't want the cops who want to

01:22:56.380 come to come here.

01:22:57.980 So I come instead.

01:22:59.960 And, uh, it was clear.

01:23:01.320 He didn't want to be there.

01:23:02.160 He didn't want to arrest any pastors or to get any congregants, but it was better him than

01:23:07.300 the guys who really did want to be there to arrest pastors and to get congregants.

01:23:10.900 So just remember that when you're out in the world, then maybe some of these cops are acting

01:23:14.820 as a buffer against the real, real power trippers.

01:23:18.680 No, well said.

01:23:20.740 Holy smoke, Sheila. 1.00

01:23:21.640 It's almost half past the hour and we haven't gotten to a single super chat yet.

01:23:27.380 Well, the good news is there's just one.

01:23:29.600 Um, it's, it's from ableist, uh, SL gives us five bucks.

01:23:35.020 Is rebel concerned about having to flee Canada or operate offshore due to future internet censorship

01:23:41.340 laws?

01:23:41.840 How would a civil war in the U S and Canada affect rebel?

01:23:44.960 And what's the risk of a civil war?

01:23:46.680 I don't really think there's a risk of a civil war.

01:23:49.240 I really don't.

01:23:50.200 I don't think it'll ever come to violence.

01:23:52.220 They control us in other ways.

01:23:53.700 Um, and with regard to, are we concerned about having to flee Canada and operate offshore

01:23:57.960 due to, um, internet censorship laws?

01:24:01.780 Um, we are always, and we don't want to tip our hats to the bad guys, of course, but we're

01:24:06.660 always making contingency plans and plans to fight more than anything.

01:24:10.740 We make plans to fight and when, when it is time to fight, rest assured, we will call

01:24:17.340 on you at home to be involved in that fight, um, to protect our free speech and the independence

01:24:23.380 of the press here in Canada, but to protect your free speech and even the free speech of

01:24:28.480 our enemies.

01:24:29.100 Um, some of you at home may not know, but some of the arguments we used against Rachel

01:24:35.400 Notley, we gave to people who would gladly call for our censorship on the left.

01:24:41.600 We gave them our legal arguments that we had prepared that, that we had used to fight for,

01:24:47.840 um, press access in the legislature under Rachel Notley.

01:24:51.080 We gave those to a journalist on the left so that that journalist on the left could fight

01:24:57.680 with Jason Kenney for access to the legislature, um, because they were denying him access because,

01:25:03.160 uh, your human rights should not be determined by your political leanings.

01:25:08.360 There's no litmus test, no values test before you were entitled to the free and liberal exchange

01:25:13.820 of ideas and information.

01:25:18.320 Oh, that is it.

01:25:20.340 Wow.

01:25:20.800 Okay.

01:25:23.360 David, you zoned right out.

01:25:26.320 No, I was, I, I was just enjoying that, um, overflowing wisdom coming our way, Sheila.

01:25:33.360 And, uh, and maybe, uh, if we had to relocate offshore, where would we go?

01:25:37.820 You know, I, I, uh, true story, uh, two days ago, I went to my friendly neighborhood health

01:25:43.700 food store and, um, I said, where's John?

01:25:47.340 Um, and I was told, um, him and his girlfriend, um, buggered off to Costa Rica and they're not

01:25:52.940 coming back.

01:25:53.820 And I hear that a lot.

01:25:55.280 A lot of Canadians are choosing Costa Rica.

01:25:58.060 I guess it's, uh, far cheaper to live there than it is here.

01:26:01.060 Um, but if you had to be forced out of our great dominion, Sheila, to continue practicing journalism, 1.00

01:26:09.440 what country would you like to go to?

01:26:11.500 Oh, I think I would go to the, um, free state of Florida.

01:26:16.560 Yankee and I can start a compound, um, not a Waco style compound, but just a place where

01:26:23.240 like-minded conservative journalists could live in harmony with each other.

01:26:28.060 I'm going to need some advice about alligators and all those weird things that live in swamps.

01:26:31.800 The humidity is going to do a real number on my hair, but I think freedom is worth it.

01:26:35.540 Yeah, Florida is a wonderful place.

01:26:39.640 Absolutely.

01:26:40.940 Well, folks, I guess that's it.

01:26:42.620 Thank you so much for watching and a special thanks to the person who gave us a super chat

01:26:48.480 singular.

01:26:49.260 Let's get that ginned up more in the days ahead.

01:26:51.620 We got a, we've got expenses to pay and unlike the mainstream media, we don't take it out of

01:26:55.740 your bank account directly every two weeks, like some kind of Rogers negative option marketing

01:27:01.260 scheme.

01:27:01.680 And thank you to our super producers, Olivia and Efron, as always, I'll be back here tomorrow

01:27:08.840 at one o'clock Eastern.

01:27:10.520 In the meantime, folks, as always, stay safe and stay sane.

01:27:15.780 When the CRTC starts regulating, they acknowledge that the curtain is up.

01:27:20.300 Rachel's being polite, but they set it down black and white.

01:27:23.500 And, and it's, it's the most dangerous thing that's out there.

01:27:26.820 Um, C18 is a little bit different.

01:27:29.180 But C18 is a shakedown of digital platforms.

01:27:32.540 Uh, and essentially it's another feeble attempt on the part of Justin Trudeau to finance a

01:27:38.260 failing business model.

01:27:40.100 We're not against journalism.

01:27:41.480 I think journalists should, they have a vibrant and important role to play in our democracy.

01:27:46.300 But it's not incumbent on taxpayers, and it's not incumbent on successful businesses in this

01:27:52.300 country to support failing business models.

01:27:56.060 It is, and that is really at the core of C18, as far as I'm concerned.

01:28:01.240 The government has no business in the business of any business.

01:28:04.200 Uh, and that's why I'm so forced to both of these pieces of innovation.

01:28:07.580 You know, we conservatives believe, and why I'm a conservative, that through hard work,

01:28:12.600 innovation, intelligence, will lead to success.

01:28:16.360 And you are entitled to that success, and that success is the foundation upon which you

01:28:20.540 build a strong society.

01:28:22.080 Bill C11 and C18 penalize innovation.

01:28:25.580 They penalize success in order to try to prop up, uh, individuals that are less successful.

01:28:31.500 And that's why I'm vociferously opposed to both these bills.

01:28:36.040 And I, you know, governments and, and bureaucrats, uh, and the CRPC should not be the ones deciding

01:28:42.880 on what pops up on our feet in terms of our priority music listen, or what we should be

01:28:48.340 watching in terms of videos, what we should be getting in terms of news.

01:28:52.400 Uh, the beauty of the internet, and I've gone on, the digital platforms, is it gives us endless

01:28:58.400 opportunities, endless choice, and no one should have the right to take that advantage.
