00:00:00.000 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Daily Roundup on this, a Tuesday, May 16th,
00:00:20.960 2023. I'm David Menzies and my co-host, well, let me tell you a little bit about my co-host,
00:00:28.280 okay? Do you know what, folks? Today is National Check Your Wipers Day and my friend will not be
00:00:35.920 doing so because since the pandemic is over, there is plenty of toilet paper on store shelves these
00:00:43.300 days. She is the she-devil with a spatula. She is the Khaleesi of the greater Coburg area. She is 1.00
00:00:50.920 Tamara Ugolini. How you doing, Tamara? Oh, David, it's never a dull moment, is it? I'm well. How
00:00:57.900 are you today? You've already been out in the field gallivanting around? Yes, we were interviewing
00:01:02.200 police officers. They were having, it was an event called Coffee with Cops, but evidently you have to
00:01:09.600 be LGBT to have a coffee with the cops. They wouldn't talk to me. In fact, they were offended by my
00:01:15.620 presence and there were at least probably a dozen cops there because you know what? There's no real
00:01:20.580 crime in the city anymore. Stabbing, shootings, assault, rape. No, that's okay. We got plenty
00:01:26.980 of time to have coffee and cake in the gay village of Toronto because after all, Tamara Ugolini,
00:01:34.520 it is a gay day in May, wouldn't you say? There's a tongue twister if you ever needed one. 1.00
00:01:40.780 Were there any rainbow sprinkle donuts? This is what I'm really curious about.
00:01:43.540 Unfortunately, the second cup that they chose had a power failure, so it looked like all the
00:01:49.460 baked goods were on the fritz. The irony. By the way, I just realized I might have misspoken. When
00:01:54.940 they say National Check Your Wipers Day, I think they mean windshield wipers. And you, Tamara Ugolini-
00:02:00.900 I didn't even pick up on it. I am going to shame Tamara Ugolini because the last time I saw you 1.00
00:02:05.580 at the wheel of the Ugolini-mobile, the rear wiper was just dangling by a thread. Oh, the Ugolini-mobile,
00:02:12.420 yeah. Yes. Have you checked your wipers? It's been fully removed. It just doesn't exist anymore.
00:02:18.120 Removed? Jeez, I don't think that's what they mean by checking your wipers. How are you going to
00:02:22.500 see out the back? It doesn't exist. You know what? That's actually my husband's commuter car,
00:02:25.420 so it's his problem. Yeah, blame it on the man. Why don't you? Anyways, enough wiper talk. What is it 0.92
00:02:30.780 we're trying to do here today, Tamara? All right. Yes, for all of you joining us at home,
00:02:33.940 thanks for tuning in. This is our daily live stream where we discuss and dissect some of the
00:02:38.040 most notable newsy topics of the day. And so we're streaming on a few different platforms,
00:02:43.080 the infamous censor-sorious-thug YouTube. We also have Rumble, Getter, Odyssey, Twitter. And I think
00:02:51.220 we were also trying to stream on Locals. I can't confirm if that's working today or not, but we're
00:02:56.220 launching a new platform, a new presence, I should say, on that platform. So on some of the other
00:03:03.220 platforms, not YouTube, unfortunately, they have demonetized us completely. We risk being
00:03:09.240 deplatformed completely, actually, at any time that we question the safe and effective narrative or
00:03:13.940 other things that goes against YouTube-specific community standards. But if you head on over to
00:03:20.160 other platforms such as Rumble, you can engage with us directly through what is called a super chat or
00:03:25.460 hyper chat. And it's a way for you to give us a small monetary donation to help keep our lights on
00:03:30.400 and fund our independent journalism while also having your comment read on screen. So $5 or more,
00:03:36.040 we will read your comment here on the live stream. And then we will provide commentary on it or just
00:03:41.580 some bantering. You can also give us a tip if there's a story you're just itching to get out
00:03:46.340 there or have some media presence on. Please go ahead and send us a small $5 donation or more if you
00:03:53.520 feel so inclined. And then we love to hear from our viewers. And you're funded and crowdfund led. So
00:04:00.080 that's the heart of our presence. So thank you for that. And I guess we're kicking off the segment
00:04:05.920 with the Toronto mayoral race. So last night, there was the second debate happened between the leaders
00:04:13.580 and David, you're more up on this than I am. I think there's like 70 plus. Oh, Tamara, that was
00:04:19.520 sold last week. It's 102. And there's a dog too, isn't there? I think there's a dog. I think a dog is
00:04:27.940 officially running for candidacy and the absolute debacle circus clown show that is the Toronto mayoral
00:04:34.940 race. It is unbelievable. And what does it say, Tamara, about this race that first of all, the
00:04:42.060 hardcore leftist, Olivia Chow, is the last poll I saw, she was trending at a whopping 23%. That might 1.00
00:04:51.280 not sound like much. But the other two candidates in second place are around 10 and 11, which I think
00:04:59.200 is Josh Matlaw and Mark Saunders. She is hard left. She will turn Toronto into Portland or San 0.98
00:05:10.000 Francisco. Believe me, folks, I interviewed one candidate, a good guy, Rob Davis. He's been elected
00:05:16.360 before as a trustee and as a city councillor for the old city of York. And he's adamant, if you own a
00:05:23.480 car, if you own a house, Olivia Chow is your enemy. And by that, he means it's tax and spend. 0.97
00:05:31.440 All those bike lanes that are causing gridlock in Toronto traffic right now, that's just going to,
00:05:38.260 they're going to go on to steroids. And yeah, this is very unfortunate. And in addition to what does it
00:05:47.960 say about the hardcore leftists leading the polls, if the polls can be believed, that is,
00:05:52.400 what does it also say, Tamara, that if John Tory were to throw his hat into the race today, well,
00:05:59.740 he can't because the cutoff was Friday for candidates. He would win by a landslide. This
00:06:05.640 is the guy that shut down the city. This is the guy, one law for thee, one law for me. This was the
00:06:11.240 moral authority putting Adamson BBQ out of business because it's for our safety. Meanwhile, he's chasing
00:06:18.920 Emily Hillstrom, his subordinate around the cottage for Hanky Panky. You know, more than the affair,
00:06:27.620 Tamara, that's what really bothers me. The likes of a John Tory saying, I am the moral authority. I know
00:06:33.820 what's best for you. And meanwhile, he was getting as close as humanly possible to a subordinate, no less,
00:06:41.080 when he pursued his, um, pastime of, well, how shall we call it? Horizontal jogging?
00:06:47.180 Well, and he was also jet setting off to Florida while telling everyone else to stay home and save
00:06:51.820 lives and decimating small businesses all across the city for the same. Uh, so the hypocrisy of the
00:06:58.520 bureaucracy is on full display with Mayor John Tory and among many others, but he especially, um, was this,
00:07:04.480 this huge moral authority sitting up in his ivory tower while he was simultaneously evading his own
00:07:11.100 restrictions, the, the restrictions that he was clapping on further and wanting more of and cheering
00:07:16.140 on, um, because, you know, he was in the back room doing his own thing. I wonder too, they were also at
00:07:22.340 that time recommending public health was recommending you wear masks with, uh, during intercourse and BC's
00:07:28.740 health authority, uh, Bonnie Henry. She even recommended glory holes, uh, to avoid direct 0.61
00:07:34.760 contact. So I wonder if John Tory was following any of those pandemic restrictions while he was having
00:07:40.020 an affair on his wife of what, 40 years? Oh, I think longer. I think their marriage goes back to the
00:07:44.980 seventies. And, uh, with all that terminology, you said, well, to quote Andrew Robinson, dirty Harry,
00:07:50.780 please. I scare easy. Um, yeah, but you're quite right. But to my question, with all that hypocrisy,
00:07:57.460 with all that immorality exposed, um, and also workplace etiquette, etiquette, that, that is the 1.00
00:08:04.860 worst thing you can do. There's an imbalance of power. He's the boss. Emily is a subordinate
00:08:09.760 again, Tamara. How do you figure it out at that? If this race was 103 people, i.e. John Tory, uh,
00:08:17.480 threw his hat back into the ring, he wins in a landslide. Does that speak of the caliber of the
00:08:24.560 other 102 candidates? Or, um, I guess in Toronto, people don't care about morality. People don't
00:08:31.020 care about hypocrisy. The caliber of the voter, the voting base in Toronto. And also, I think it's
00:08:35.980 also the caliber of the media because the media really didn't, the mainstream media is what I'm
00:08:40.580 referring to specifically, really didn't hold any of these officials to account when they were caught
00:08:45.500 red handing, red handed, evading their own cheerleaded restrictions. And so unless you're a
00:08:52.200 supporter or a viewer of independent media, like Rebel News, you would be none the wiser that any
00:08:57.000 of this stuff happened and that, that an ability to point out the hypocrisy there. So I think Toronto
00:09:02.420 is still very much enthralled with and under the hypnosis of the mainstream media, unfortunately.
00:09:08.720 That's an excellent point. They are detached to the shenanigans that are really going on. But we have
00:09:14.420 a video clip, uh, featuring Olivia Chow. You know, I got to admit, uh, Tamara, I did a double take. I was
00:09:20.720 looking at the opening line, let's build a city. Uh, and I almost thought, is she going to break
00:09:26.660 into the Starship song? We built this city on rock and roll. That's what it sounded like to me.
00:09:33.880 Where's Ben Bankus when you need him? Yeah, exactly. But I interviewed him yesterday. We'll
00:09:38.180 talk about him a little later on. All right. So let's, uh, see, uh, Olivia Chow's, uh, rendition of 0.93
00:09:43.960 we built this city. My friend, Ying, volunteer at the Fort York Food Bank on College Street.
00:09:52.020 And I walked by College Street because I am, I live very close to it. And I watched the line grow
00:10:01.520 schools weekly, monthly. And then I thought of my mother. It could be my mom. It could be
00:10:09.140 my dad lining up there. Why? My mom and dad and I immigrated to Canada when I was 13. Like
00:10:20.740 a lot of you, life was tough when you first immigrate to Canada. My dad wasn't able to find
00:10:28.200 a job even though he spoke fluent English and taught in Hong Kong. Couldn't find a job teaching
00:10:36.820 in Canada in the seventies. He had a nervous breakdown. He couldn't get a job. Couldn't
00:10:44.000 hold down a job. My mom with one income as a maid in a hotel was able to get the food to 1.00
00:10:55.480 feed the family and still pay the rent in St. Jamestown. We were able to survive. We didn't
00:11:04.100 have food banks back then. But life is so different now. Life is so unaffordable. Why? Because we
00:11:15.180 have a decade of people not building housing. And that is unacceptable. And that is the root
00:11:24.520 cause of the problem. So we have a choice to make today. We have to choose to come together
00:11:31.480 and say that we need to build housing. We need together build a city that is more affordable,
00:11:38.720 more caring, safer, where everyone belongs, where no one have to go to food bank in order
00:11:45.400 to feed their kids and pay the rent. Sounds more like a federal criticism than anything
00:11:53.780 to do specifically with Toronto. Yeah. And when it comes to unaffordability, Tamara,
00:11:59.600 oh, that's not going to affect Olivia Chow anytime soon. Maybe the media might want to dredge this 0.99
00:12:06.240 embarrassing statistic up from yester decade. And it was Olivia Chow and Jack Layton who would go on
00:12:14.400 to become the leader of the federal New Democrat Party were actually gaming the system. They were
00:12:20.460 living in subsidized housing, even though the two of them had a six figure income. And I'm talking six
00:12:27.340 figures going back to the 80s and 90s. Once again, socialism isn't for the socialists. The other
00:12:37.340 disturbing thing, there was a report that's come out, Tamara, from the National Post linking the Olivia
00:12:44.620 Chow campaign to the Chinese interference groups, which is very surprising because Olivia Chow once upon
00:12:51.980 the time took a stance, a righteous stance, I will admit, for Hong Kong democracy. But now,
00:12:58.300 now that she can see the brass ring within her grasp of becoming mayor, well, you know, ethics, morals,
00:13:05.660 all that sort of stuff, let's put that on the back burner. I might need the support of certain
00:13:12.620 members of the Chinese community, i.e. the ones loyal to Beijing to give me that boost over into the
00:13:20.460 mayor's seat. That is shocking that I think that she would throw the people of Hong Kong under the 1.00
00:13:27.980 bus for political expediency. Yeah, here in this National Post article, the byline says,
00:13:36.060 a Chow supporter says such meetings are a necessary evil to reach Chinese immigrants,
00:13:42.620 while another cautions not to jump into any conclusion. A necessary evil? So that she can enrich 0.98
00:13:49.820 herself as the mayor of Toronto, that she can get that big six-figure salary and all the perks that 0.91
00:13:55.580 go with it. Do you understand what that means? A necessary evil? Other than, Tamara, the obvious,
00:14:04.380 which is to just win the election. To completely undermine our democracy, which is what the Justin
00:14:10.620 Trudeau Liberals have been facing intense scrutiny over for the last several weeks. And it's funny,
00:14:15.580 this article come came out yesterday, but I believe it was last week that you featured that same
00:14:21.340 allegation with the other Toronto mayoral candidate. Rob Davis. Yes. Yes. And it was actually his concern
00:14:30.940 was that there was an Olivia Chow charity that has seen their donations exponentially rise. And Rob Davis was
00:14:41.580 wondering, is she going to use the proceeds, the staffers to get around donation laws that apply 0.57
00:14:48.220 to corporations, big unions as a way to cheat? Now, these are allegations around proven allegations.
00:14:54.300 Right. I have welcomed members of the charity on for an interview, and I haven't heard back,
00:15:02.140 but they did make a statement that everything's above board, but they haven't agreed to an interview. So that
00:15:07.980 was a different issue. This is, I think, is even more serious, Tamara. It kind of plays into being
00:15:13.500 potentially the same, but yes. A hundred percent. And this is the same candidate, of course, who said,
00:15:20.060 you own a house, you own a car. Olivia Chow is your enemy. And by the way, she's on about affordable 0.98
00:15:27.820 housing. I was shocked when she first threw her hat into the ring. This is almost a month ago. And the
00:15:34.460 first thing she said, Tamara, and this is BS politics. She was saying, I don't have a very good
00:15:42.540 command of the English language. I hope my enemies aren't going to use it against me. And I'm thinking,
00:15:48.940 this is a career politician. She's been elected and reelected at the municipal, provincial and federal
00:15:56.220 level over and over again. When was the language ever an issue? You're already playing the victim card,
00:16:01.820 the race card. Give me a break. And the second thing, if you're stuck in traffic right now in
00:16:06.860 Toronto, as I was coming up from the downtown core, as per usual, just a few hours ago, think of Olivia
00:16:13.820 Chow's master plan for more affordable housing, i.e. knocking down the Gardner Expressway. Two things are
00:16:22.060 wrong with that. One is if you think gridlock is bad in Toronto right now without the Gardner,
00:16:26.940 it's never going to move. Secondly, I heard an urban planner calling to talk radio and saying,
00:16:33.020 even if you took away that raised expressway in the downtown core, the footprint to put up towers,
00:16:40.540 it's really not there. You know, there's no there there in terms of replacing the Gardner
00:16:46.220 with affordable housing. She's clueless, Tamara. I'm sorry. It very much seems like it, especially 0.52
00:16:53.260 just even that comment about the food bank, which is an issue that we have been discussing for months
00:16:58.460 now on the live stream and in our various reports and this this this unfortunate unfolding of
00:17:02.940 inflation. I mean, many economists called that at the onset of the pandemic, you know, shutting down
00:17:07.580 global supply chains will come with repercussions. And so a lot of people saw the writing on the wall, but then to
00:17:16.140 kind of be ignorant in the sense that thinking this is a Toronto specific issue when it's not happening all across
00:17:22.220 Canada speaks for itself in that regard. No. And, you know, it reminds me, I think if Olivia Chow does
00:17:28.620 become mayor, once upon a time, there was a really good Chinese food chain called Holy Chow. And they
00:17:35.420 had a great radio campaign with their slogan. And it was what their competitors were saying about them
00:17:41.660 because their food was great. Their prices were wonderful. Their delivery was timely. And the ads
00:17:48.780 would always end with the competitors going, Holy Chow, we in big trouble now. And that's going to be
00:17:57.100 the citizens of Toronto. You mark my words under just four years of Olivia Chow. Anyways.
00:18:03.900 Holy Chow.
00:18:04.780 Yeah. We in big trouble now.
00:18:07.180 Well, having some comedic relief is always a good time. So I think let's just throw to a video here of
00:18:13.340 Ben Benkis, Toronto comedian, with some Olivia Chow parody.
00:18:17.900 Oh, no.
00:18:18.860 Happy to announce we just got off the phone with the Chinese embassy in Handong.
00:18:24.220 And I will be crowned the next mayor of Toronto. As mayor of Toronto, we are going to be granting
00:18:29.500 asylum to any members of the Chinese Communist Party who are collaborating with the Canadian government
00:18:36.060 because we are an open and free city. In addition, we are going to be expanding the boundaries of
00:18:41.740 Chinatown from Mississauga to Scarborough. One of the biggest bonuses of working directly with the
00:18:46.780 Chinese Communist Party is that we have negotiated to have no Chinese police stations in the downtown
00:18:51.980 core, but we will have them in Martin. We're simply following suit in a regular phenomenon that is
00:18:57.900 happening in Canada where mayors are being instilled by the Chinese government. One of my heroes,
00:19:03.020 Calgary Mayor Judy Gonda, is already following in the footsteps of the Chinese Communist Party
00:19:07.420 by banning the protests of Drag Queen Story Hour. I want to go a step further, Jody. I want to
00:19:12.700 ban the protests of anything the Conservatives disagree with. Vote Ben Benkis for mayor of Toronto.
00:19:19.100 All the other candidates are racist.
00:19:22.860 You know, Tamara, this is the worst thing I can possibly say about the vast majority of candidates
00:19:29.820 in this 102-person race. And that is this. If Ben Benkis won, and if he never even showed up a day
00:19:37.900 to City Hall, we would be much better off than the likes of Olivia Chow, Josh Matlow, and dozens and
00:19:45.100 dozens of other candidates, you know. And, you know, I mentioned I interviewed Ben Benkis yesterday. I don't
00:19:51.420 know if we have a clip ready from our super producers, but one of the platforms, it's amazing,
00:19:56.220 he's stealing ideas from the left and the right. And he did the interview in a rainbow-colored suit
00:20:04.540 with a transgender handkerchief in the pocket. So he's down with diversity, as you can see. 0.99
00:20:11.660 And one of his most profound things was, you know, the city is still somewhat in mourning
00:20:17.420 after the mighty Maple Leafs once again blew it and got ousted from the playoffs. The 56-year drought
00:20:23.180 continues for the Stanley Cup. And one of Ben Benkis' planks is he is going to outlaw
00:20:31.420 male professional sports in Toronto. So no Leafs, no Raptors, no Argos, no TFC. They're going to be
00:20:40.620 replaced with female pro teams. But male athletes, so, you know, an Austin Matthews or a Mitch Marner,
00:20:49.980 who would be out of the job in the Leafs because it's now a female team, the Lady Leafs, 1.00
00:20:55.580 they will be allowed to identify as females and join the Lady Leafs. So, in other words, 0.74
00:21:03.340 the status quo. Yeah, it's the most inclusive, really. I think we should just banish gender in 1.00
00:21:10.140 general. Oh, look at him. Very fitting. That's so great to have some comedic relief in these times.
00:21:17.980 It sure is. It reminds me of the old days when there used to be the Rhino Party in federal politics, 1.00
00:21:23.260 and they've since become extinct. And, you know, it's kind of funny. I was born in Toronto. I love
00:21:31.180 Toronto, still love Toronto, although the love is diminishing, folks, let me tell you. And
00:21:36.780 I have to say, though, it is such a cold, humorless city. And you can see that especially in the media.
00:21:43.740 You know, everything is so serious. Even the morning zoo radio shows are so lame and terrible.
00:21:52.060 And, you know, it's just so wonderful to have a standup comedian like Ben Bank is. And I gotta tell
00:21:57.580 you, if there was such a thing as magic and I could have a wish, it would make him win.
00:22:03.020 Make a true mockery of Toronto. You know, I'll tell you something, Tamara. A couple of decades
00:22:11.340 ago, Jesse the Body Ventura, the ex-professional wrestler, he ran for governor as an independent
00:22:17.180 in Minnesota and written off. And I'll never forget, it was either in GQ or Vanity Fair. It was a
00:22:25.420 fantastic feature. They sent a reporter to the Jesse Ventura so-called victory, you know, campaign office
00:22:33.980 on election night. And basically, the thrust of it was nobody expected Ventura to win. It was either
00:22:42.620 going to be the Republican or the Democrat. And the crowd that was there, I mean, you had professional
00:22:47.740 wrestling fans, you had bikers, you had, you know, hippies. It was basically, as the writer said,
00:22:55.260 you know, people that have lost for so long in their lives, always picking the wrong decision.
00:23:03.340 And the results come in and Jesse the Body Ventura is proclaimed governor. And there's silence because
00:23:11.660 these people have never experienced victory and they don't know how to react. It's absolute shock. So
00:23:16.860 wouldn't that be wonderful that happened to Ben Bankus? It would be pretty funny. All right,
00:23:21.340 we are 25 minutes in. So we're going to go to a quick ad break and then we will come back to discuss
00:23:27.180 some propositions to bail reform that should be announced shortly.
00:23:33.900 I am doing something today that I have never tried before. Listen up. I'm looking for collaborators
00:23:39.980 in a new and exciting initiative. As you most likely know, YouTube a long time ago did
00:23:46.540 monetize rebel news and we are 100% viewer funded. Now, while our supporters are fantastic at helping
00:23:53.340 us cover legal campaigns and special reporting missions, unfortunately, the reality is our day
00:23:58.300 to day operational expenses often exceed our income stream, which is crazy if you think about it, because
00:24:05.100 my videos across all platforms attract hundreds of thousands of views and sometimes even millions.
00:24:11.180 So I want to share that reach with the right partners. If you have a product or business
00:24:17.180 and want to enter a win-win relationship with me, please go to rebelnews.com forward slash ads and
00:24:25.020 fill in the form to let me know. I won't be accepting anyone. I need to believe in your business or product
00:24:31.420 so I can sell it proudly for you. And for successful applicants, I will guarantee a minimum view count.
00:24:38.860 Meaning even if your ad is published on the less popular reports, we'll keep promoting your business
00:24:44.940 or product until it gets the agreed minimum eyeballs. So again, if you have a cool company or product that
00:24:52.140 either wants to take advantage of my reach or want to support my work through advertising in a way that you
00:24:59.900 can write it off as a tax deduction or both head over to rebelnews.com forward slash ads and hopefully
00:25:08.940 we can join forces soon.
00:25:14.780 I think we have to record ads like that, don't we, Tamara? What's going to be your shtick?
00:25:18.700 I think you're being called to record an ad like that. So before we move on with our next topic,
00:25:26.140 we did have a super chat coming right away from N Mark, gives $5. Thank you very much.
00:25:31.660 Faye from the Faye and Fluffy story time. Faye said he had children daycare, he had a children's daycare
00:25:38.300 business for a short time. I was wondering why it was shut down. You know what, this Faye and Fluffy
00:25:45.020 thing. So if you haven't seen my previous report, it just came out yesterday. And so it features this
00:25:51.180 dynamic drag artist duo called Faye and Fluffy and they basically tour around engaging in drag queen
00:25:58.860 story time at library schools. The one is a Toronto District School Board teacher. So these are,
00:26:05.100 before I go on, these are two burly, bearded men. I've since received word that one actually may be a
00:26:13.980 biological woman. So I'll save that for my full report, my follow-up report.
00:26:18.620 This is important. Would that be like, I don't know, akin to stolen valor? You know, I mean,
00:26:25.420 because you're supposed to be a dude pretending to be a woman, but if you're a woman pretending to be a 1.00
00:26:29.580 woman, what's the point? Yeah, it's really bizarre. It's just pure gender confusion clearly on display 1.00
00:26:36.460 in front of children. And let's just pull up like a quick photo just to show our viewers how grotesque this
00:26:43.420 is. Like there's Faye. I get them both confused. So this is Faye. And this is the Toronto District
00:26:50.300 School Board teacher. He's been a teacher, worked with kindergartners for the better part of two
00:26:54.620 decades. I don't think he dresses up like that for work. But regardless, this is kind of an ongoing
00:27:01.020 story because I received a huge tip last night going into delving into some of the more nuances involved
00:27:07.420 with this dynamic pair. And yes, I would wonder why and if I'm not even sure that the other individual,
00:27:16.780 Faye, I believe is Faye is the one that had the daycare. I don't think that it was shut down.
00:27:23.260 I could be wrong. I'm not really sure if that daycare business runs on. But yeah, these two individuals
00:27:30.620 work with children. They also gallivant around dressed up as these clowns. Fluffy calls himself
00:27:37.580 a clown. They read to children and then they also teach to children. And then they also run this
00:27:44.460 this show on the Disney. Well, it used to be a Disney subsidiary, but it's the Family Channel now,
00:27:49.500 Family Junior. And late in the evening, this dynamic duo will come on the screen and they have
00:27:56.380 their Faye and Fluffy show. So it's really unsettling, really bizarre. But they are going,
00:28:02.300 I believe it is in June to the Muskoka, no, sorry, not Muskoka, the Wasaga Beach Public Library. And
00:28:11.100 they are going to be featured there for a drag storytime segment. So that was the basis of my
00:28:16.060 first report. But I've since received a very lengthy tip involving further details about these two
00:28:22.860 characters. So please stay tuned because I will be doing a follow up report featuring some of those
00:28:27.420 tips, including some of the appropriateness of the way the Faye or Fluffy, one of the bearded men
00:28:35.580 or women identifying as men, act with children while off duty as a registered Ontario school teacher. So
00:28:44.940 that story is developing. Tamara, what I don't understand, look at the photo of, I don't know if
00:28:50.780 it's Faye or Fluffy. It's kind of like I'd always be confused with Laverne and Shirley,
00:28:55.340 except thank God for that L on the lapel of Laverne. But what I'm saying is that, first of all,
00:29:03.100 I really don't get this idea of men portraying themselves as a grotesque caricature of females.
00:29:09.980 But if that's what you want to do and it's at the gay bar or any bar at age of majority, that's fine.
00:29:15.900 But the idea that this is somehow age appropriate for elementary age students is crazy. But this is
00:29:22.780 for toddlers. Their show is geared toward toddlers. But here's the thing. Here's a man trying to pass 0.93
00:29:29.820 himself off as a woman, but he's got a beard. He's got a hairy back. He's got hairy arms. What I'm
00:29:36.860 getting at, Tamara, is that if that a real biological woman, I think if she had problem with body hair, 1.00
00:29:45.020 facial hair, she would go out of her way to suppress it. Right. Well, it's a thyroid issue.
00:29:50.940 There are women who struggle a hundred percent, but you wouldn't exaggerate it, which is so I don't
00:29:57.740 understand what the point is that he's passing himself off with the props of women, high heel shoes,
00:30:06.140 a dress, a dress, what have you. And yet all the other characteristics are, you know,
00:30:13.100 you know, the cliched accompaniments of a male, you know, hair on the face, on the arms, the underarms,
00:30:19.740 etc. So, like, I'm very confused.
00:30:23.180 Oh, you and me both.
00:30:26.140 So, I can imagine the level of confusion when you bring a child to this. And obviously, I guess,
00:30:32.780 you know, the blonde one, that must obviously... 1.00
00:30:37.100 From what I am hearing, and this has not been confirmed, that is a woman who identifies as a
00:30:44.140 man and is undergoing chemical transition to be a man, but then continues to dress as her,
00:30:52.700 not his natural biological gender. If I do, I get it. Yeah. Very confusing. 0.96
00:31:00.700 You know, in order reminds me of there's an episode, you know, the Munsters, you know,
00:31:04.140 from the sixties, that series with that monster family and Herman Munster, who was a clone of the
00:31:10.220 Frankenstein monster, they go to a Halloween costume party. And he dresses up as a knight
00:31:16.460 in shining armor with a full face mask and everything. And there's judges walking around
00:31:21.020 the party. And then Herman Munster decides he needs to have a drink of something. So he lifts the visor
00:31:26.300 and he's sipping away on some beverage. And one of the judges says to the other, he goes,
00:31:31.100 wow, look at this. This guy is wearing a costume of a knight in shining armor. And then under that
00:31:40.940 costume, he's wearing an additional costume of the Frankenstein monster, but that's his real body.
00:31:49.500 It's just a bizarro world, upside down, gender bending weirdness. And these people are in charge of 1.00
00:31:56.700 teaching children. That's the concerning part here is save your weird deviances and your sexuality 0.98
00:32:02.860 for adult only entertainment. I have no problem with drag events. I've been to, you know, plenty,
00:32:07.820 not plenty, but I've been to them and I've been to gay bars and I have friends who, you know, are that
00:32:13.740 way. And this just gets so strange and weird and gross when it involves children. So I don't know.
00:32:21.180 I don't, I don't know if this phenomenon is going to continue much longer, to be honest,
00:32:24.700 as the parents who consensually bring their children to these events. I think more and more
00:32:28.780 parents are saying like, you know, this is kind of weird. I think we can teach, you know, like
00:32:32.380 tolerance, inclusivity, that, that it's okay to embrace differences without this like grotesque
00:32:38.380 caricature of women appropriating them and having these, these clown characters. I mean, I would want 1.00
00:32:45.100 my children to look up to and idolize people who have merit, who are, took, took principled stances,
00:32:52.460 who are comfortable in their own skin, not trying to pretend to be someone who they're not.
00:32:58.380 So Tamara, I'm going to go out on a limb here. I'm going to predict because I know you're a great
00:33:01.500 mother. You would never bring your children to a drag queen story time, would you? 1.00
00:33:05.980 No. And imagine if you, you didn't bring your child to a drag story time and you're going to 0.80
00:33:10.060 the library thinking that you're engaging in some wholesome, you know, book, book reading,
00:33:14.940 or you're going to get a few new reads to go home and enjoy. And then you walk in on that.
00:33:20.860 Yeah. Well, and this is, but what I'm getting at here, Tamara, is that a five or six year old,
00:33:25.900 they're not hopping into an Uber or taking public transit and getting to a library to take in a drag 1.00
00:33:31.820 queen performance. So obviously there's parental or guardian, you know, support for this. What is in
00:33:38.140 the heads of those parents? Is it like, oh, I'm going to show everyone how woke and Uber cool and
00:33:45.980 down with the transgender revolution I am. Is that what's driving it? Because here's my point. 1.00
00:33:51.900 If there was no market for this, right? If it was an empty space, this ends, right?
00:33:58.060 Exactly.
00:33:58.780 And yet there is a, there's an audience for this. What, what do you think is in the heads of those
00:34:06.380 parents? Oh gosh. Yeah. They've been captured by this ideology. Um, and they're obviously not
00:34:13.740 seeing it for what it is, which is directed to capturing the hearts and minds of these children
00:34:19.340 and instilling this idea of confusion. It's really, it's confusion. These people don't even know who they
00:34:24.540 are and they're supposed to be in charge and responsible for teaching your child about how to
00:34:30.060 embrace differences and inclusion and tolerance. Um, again, I would prefer to see somebody who's
00:34:35.180 principled, who's moral, who, uh, has a good sense of themselves, their identity, teaching children
00:34:42.140 morals, ethics, principles. Uh, this is just really bizarre. I think there was someone in the comments
00:34:47.980 on the Wasaga pub or yeah, the Wasaga beach public libraries, Facebook posts that I featured in that
00:34:53.180 report. And they're like, why aren't seniors reading to kids or, and those poor seniors are so,
00:34:58.620 have been so isolated, deprived of interaction. I remember when, um, the school used to, to plan
00:35:04.380 trips to the seniors home and you would interact and they would teach you, you know, like actual
00:35:09.100 life skills, knitting, or they would do reading or songs or, and it was kind of fulfilling for both
00:35:14.620 parties involved. The seniors needed and longed to have that interaction with children and that
00:35:19.900 relationship and get that rapport. And then children could have wholesome interactions with adults.
00:35:25.420 Uh, so I, I mean, obviously we've gone quite awry as a society at this point when we've replaced that
00:35:32.780 with, uh, bearded men dressed up as ladies. That is a profound, uh, statement, uh, Tamara. I agree.
00:35:40.220 Wouldn't it be beautiful to have seniors and honor our seniors as the storytellers? Yes. And, um, you know,
00:35:45.500 and our lap, I think my last point on this before we move on to our, uh, justice minister is simply
00:35:52.700 this, you know, the other day I had somebody reach out and this is the saddest thing I think I can say
00:35:56.700 about drag queen story hour down at the library. And it was, Hey, uh, here's a tip for you. Uh,
00:36:03.020 such and such a town is having their libraries having drag queen story hour. And I responded,
00:36:08.540 I'm so sorry, but the saddest thing I can say about this issue is that you're kind of an outlier as a 1.00
00:36:15.900 library. If you're not having a drag queen story hour, it's, it's almost as, Ooh, what are you?
00:36:23.340 Some kind of a weirdo. You don't have some 300 pound bearded male, uh, dressing a stinker bell to read
00:36:29.420 to the kids. What's wrong with you? Right. You know, so it's amazing how accepted this has become.
00:36:35.980 Yes. And, um, although I think more and more now are starting to say, wait a minute,
00:36:39.660 this is weird. It doesn't make sense. I hope so. Yeah. I guess, uh, time will tell. The
00:36:43.740 culture war continues. Uh, we have one super chat before we move on from Funis. It gives $5. Thank
00:36:49.180 you very much Funis. The same police, uh, not say, I think that's a, just a code word,
00:36:55.820 wants to defund. She called to remove a journalist so she could save face, not answering about how well
00:37:02.300 the police defunding policy was working. Can't make this stuff up. Is she referring to not to,
00:37:07.740 or are they referring to not, not Lee as not see? Oh, you know what? I think I get it now.
00:37:13.420 The play on words. And this is referring, I think it's to our former colleague,
00:37:17.500 Kian Bexty at the counter. Which we'll get into. Um, so, well, you know what, let's,
00:37:21.420 should we talk about the bill reform before we get there?
00:37:23.340 You know what? Yeah. Because, well, you know what, because it was brought up in the super chat,
00:37:27.100 we may as well kill two birds in one stone. We'll do a brief, uh, segment on Alberta. But yeah,
00:37:32.220 Kian Bexty somehow got arrested for attending a Rachel Notley presser in which she was standing
00:37:39.420 quietly in the background observing. Okay. He gets, first of all, he got frog marched out. Uh,
00:37:45.980 secondly, now I think he's got his hands behind his back. I don't think he was handcuffed. I think
00:37:52.220 Kian is playing to the camera there to make it look like he was cuffed. Um, but more to the point,
00:37:58.860 folks in the one law for the one law for me, as you know, last week, Daniel Smith had a presser,
00:38:05.580 um, ambushed. It was by disruptive protesters, typically, uh, union flunkies. And, um, did you
00:38:14.220 hear of any criminal charges about that? Right. A former or an NDP, uh, staffer as well. They
00:38:20.060 completely crashed her presser. I think we have some very disruptive, um, fully impeding on the
00:38:27.660 stage in front of the camera. Uh, and, and this is, and none of them were arrested. No charges to
00:38:36.060 my knowledge were laid. Yeah. And look, and she's just calmly standing there. Where's the cops?
00:38:40.780 What is going on here? Yeah. And you know what? That's a win for Daniel Smith, you know,
00:38:44.620 not lowering herself to that level and, uh, screaming back at them and being hysterical.
00:38:50.380 Um, they look so bad on that, but that's besides the point. How in blue hell can you arrest Kian 1.00
00:38:55.900 Bextie for doing nothing and at the same time, turn a blind eye to people that are completely
00:39:03.820 disrupting a press conference? Uh, I don't get it. Well, and this comes also as NDP leader,
00:39:10.140 this is the Alberta NDP leader, Rachel Notley has condemned Danielle Smith, premier of Alberta for
00:39:17.740 only allowing one media question and no follow up. And so they condemned her for not upholding
00:39:23.820 freedom of the press and how could this be and how dare she, and she better revoke this policy. 0.93
00:39:29.500 Um, and meanwhile, that same individual who condemned her political opponent for that policy of only
00:39:35.260 allowing one question by report from media now doesn't allow questions, any questions from certain
00:39:44.780 media. So if you don't toe the political line, if you're seen as an opponent, uh, or someone opposite
00:39:50.460 on the political spectrum of Rachel Notley, then she won't allow you to ask any questions at all,
00:39:54.620 not even just one on at the same point that she's condemning Danielle Smith for only allowing one from 0.75
00:40:00.300 any media. You know, Tamara, it is amazing. Whatever happened to classical liberalism? I mean,
00:40:05.980 just myself and, uh, Lincoln Jay, we were at the Durham district school board yesterday. Another
00:40:12.540 completely leftist woke out of control school board, minister of education, Steve Lecce. Hello.
00:40:18.460 Can you put down your Pokemon go, uh, monitor and, uh, actually start governing. But we, uh, we went out
00:40:26.060 there and, uh, guess what? Uh, here's something new, uh, no cameras allowed inside. And I said,
00:40:32.540 excuse me, we're a visual medium. How do we practice journalism without recording? And they go, well,
00:40:38.700 you know, there is a live stream. And I said to the security guard, I wasn't giving him a hard time,
00:40:42.620 folks. He's just following orders as they say, but what Durham district school board does is when there
00:40:48.540 is a prickly question or they don't like the tone of the audience, guess what? They end the live stream.
00:40:55.020 They are complete censorious thugs. And what was up for voting yesterday was a motion. It's being
00:41:02.460 kicked down the road. So we'll see where it goes, that they were going to ban, ban any parents from
00:41:09.660 asking anything to do with, um, sexuality questions, transgenderism. So if you're concerned about
00:41:16.540 pornography in the elementary school library, oh no, no human rights provisions. You can ask that
00:41:22.380 if you're concerned about certain flags going up, uh, 18 times a year to commemorate one community.
00:41:28.940 Nope. Can't ask those questions. It is complete and utter censorship as Lincoln and I found out
00:41:35.900 yesterday. It's about them controlling the narrative. And, uh, to bring it back to Rachel Notley, it's the
00:41:41.500 same deal here. When you are arresting an important, a reporter just for his mere presence at a press
00:41:48.300 conference, uh, you know, well, and we have her head a shake. And we have this clip here where she
00:41:54.060 actually refers to Bextie as a protester. This is right from her mouth. Let's, let's have a look.
00:42:00.300 Well, thank you very much. And, uh, thank you everybody for your, uh, patience. Uh, as many
00:42:06.300 of you here know, we had to, uh, remove a protester, but I'm very pleased that we were able to, uh, have
00:42:11.260 folks stick around. Thank you. Yeah. Oh, wait a minute. You mean like those bona fide protesters that
00:42:18.780 stormed the Daniel Smith event, right? This is outrageous hypocrisy. On full display. And
00:42:25.660 the masses seem to be none the wiser, which is the, the, which is how they get away with this
00:42:32.220 is that there's no scrutiny. There's no, no one from the media is speaking truth to power. And
00:42:37.340 those who want to like key and Bextie are frog marched out of the presser and then referred
00:42:42.700 to as a protester, you know, just changing the definition of something to fit your narratives that
00:42:47.580 you can justify the action that you just take to squash freedom of the press. Um, and then, uh,
00:42:53.580 we have another video clip here from the same presser where not Lee in response to a mainstream
00:42:57.740 media reporter who asks if this delay could have been handled better. Uh, well,
00:43:03.100 I don't want to give it away. Let's see how she responds.
00:43:04.940 Well, you know, it really depends. So I'm happy to, uh, take, to present myself, uh, to, uh,
00:43:15.900 everybody in the media. I mean, even those that have a very conservative background and have a very
00:43:20.700 pointed perspective in terms of, uh, the questions that they, they ask. Uh, there is one media outlet that,
00:43:27.420 that, uh, um, fits that description that I've been very clear, uh, we will not take questions from until
00:43:34.300 they retract the speech, uh, that they published, uh, uh, with respect to one of our caucus members.
00:43:40.620 Um, the protester today does not fit that description. The protester today is a protester
00:43:45.660 who has a record of acting like a protester, regardless of what the name of the Congress
00:43:50.620 of and has a clear association with white supremacist groups. And so the answer is no, no.
00:43:56.540 Um, can we have an example of the, that clear association with white supremacy views?
00:44:05.900 You know, it's funny. They never give that example, do they, Tamara? No.
00:44:08.940 What is she talking about? You know, you'll be labeled, oh, you're far right. Or you're this,
00:44:12.860 you're that. And I say back, well, what does that mean? Can you describe that? What, what do you mean?
00:44:18.380 What does being far right mean? And you know, the irony is so perverse and it looks like only Rachel
00:44:25.260 Notley is unaware of it when she calls, uh, a reporter as someone having a pointed perspective,
00:44:33.420 a pointed perspective from this woman that, I mean, our beloved colleague, Sheila Gunn-Reed,
00:44:38.860 uh, wrote a book about her and her party while they were in power in Alberta. And it was adroitly
00:44:46.060 entitled The Destroyers. She declared war on her own province in the name of wokeism and virtue
00:44:55.100 signaling. And the last thing, well, let's leave it at that. It's less than two weeks away,
00:44:59.820 May 29th, Tamara. That's the election day in Alberta. And, um, the way it's been described to me by
00:45:08.300 analysts, um, and gee, I, I hope it's more of a, you know, it's not so much a photo finish as so
00:45:14.700 many people are saying, but basically all the rural, uh, writings are going UCP. Edmonton is a
00:45:21.100 write-off as, uh, Sheila likes to say, let's get a front end loader and shove it into the Saskatchewan 0.99
00:45:26.940 river. Um, that's going to go NDP. And the last battleground, what's going to decide the whole
00:45:33.100 province's fate is Calgary. Uh, is it going to go majority NDP or majority UCP? I'll tell you,
00:45:39.660 I lived in Alberta for two years, 85, 86. Uh, that was, um, in the midst of, I think it was a
00:45:46.220 70 year long dynasty of the old progressive conservative party. It was unthinkable that
00:45:52.300 there'd be anyone, but a right of center government there. What makes me just shiver with is the fact
00:46:00.700 that this isn't Rachel Notley saying it's time for change. Cause we saw your change.
00:46:06.540 You, you, you, and it gave the name for Sheila's book, the destroyers. We know what you're about.
00:46:12.780 How could the average Albertan, even if you lean left, Tamara, how could you vote this destroyer
00:46:19.420 back in again? Yeah. The writing's on the wall. Um, just how much devastation was caused by the reign
00:46:24.380 of terror of the NDP in the province of Alberta, the last time that they were elected for four
00:46:30.700 gruesome years. So, um, I, I, you know, without sounding, um, xenophobic, I think that there's been
00:46:38.940 a clear drive to funnel new Canadians into certain ridings of the province to sway that political
00:46:48.380 landscape in favor of more radical left-leaning politicians. There you go. You know, and well,
00:46:53.660 we should get to the limiting, but let's have an ad break first. You know, that word xenophobic,
00:46:57.420 do you know what, Tamara? I used to think that meant people that hated the TV series,
00:47:02.780 Xena, Warrior Princess, but then I found out the real definition.
00:47:06.940 My sister broke her arm once playing Xena.
00:47:11.260 Funny fact. Oh my gosh. She would hate me. We used to have so much fun playing Xena.
00:47:15.820 I'd pay a dollar to see that video, folks. Let me tell you.
00:47:19.020 She was like seven. Oh my goodness. Great memory. Solid memory there.
00:47:24.060 Let's roll the ad. We'll see you on the other side.
00:47:27.100 The media said that Canadian truckers were Russian agents controlled by Vladimir Putin.
00:47:33.180 Justin Trudeau called them extremists.
00:47:36.060 The small fringe minority.
00:47:39.980 We are here out of love for our families, our communities.
00:47:44.380 And the government put the country under martial law to stop them.
00:47:47.660 But what's the real story?
00:47:50.300 If you can't see the future in clear outline right now, you're not paying attention.
00:47:54.540 But the truckers in Canada can.
00:47:57.260 And I want you to know that I'm not afraid.
00:47:59.580 For the first time, the woman at the heart of the trucker convoy speaks out.
00:48:02.940 Hold the line.
00:48:03.980 Tamara Leach, passionate organizer, loving mother and grandmother,
00:48:08.140 proud Maytee and proud Albertan, and defiant political prisoner jailed for daring to criticize the government.
00:48:17.660 To Tamara Leach, her new book, hold the line.
00:48:26.540 My story from the heart of the freedom convoy is the inside scoop of what really happened.
00:48:32.140 You've heard from the media and the convoy's critics.
00:48:35.340 Now hear the truth from the woman who inspired the world and made Justin Trudeau blink.
00:48:40.940 Visit theconvoybook.com to order your copy now.
00:48:50.220 All right.
00:48:50.700 So we have a super chat to get to here from Aaron Burton, 32.
00:48:54.780 Thank you.
00:48:55.260 He gives, I hope I'm not assuming your gender, 30, sorry, five dollars. 1.00
00:48:59.580 Happy Tamara Tuesday.
00:49:00.700 That's right.
00:49:01.180 Here we are.
00:49:01.660 Tamara Tuesday, LOL.
00:49:03.100 Laugh out loud.
00:49:03.740 Just wanted to say you did an amazing interview with Dr. Byram Bridal last week.
00:49:07.660 His running analogy was spot on.
00:49:10.860 And hi to David with a happy face.
00:49:12.860 Oh, well, thank you very much for your support.
00:49:15.340 And what was the big takeaway from that interview for those viewers that didn't see it?
00:49:19.180 Well, they should tune in and watch.
00:49:21.420 It was my segment last week where I was co-hosting the Ezra Levant show.
00:49:25.180 And so that is exclusive content for our Rebel News Plus subscribers.
00:49:30.060 And I believe there is a rumble clip out with both just my monologue, but also with the interview
00:49:37.820 with Dr. Byram Bridal.
00:49:39.100 And we were speaking a lot about the current landscape around misinformation and how he
00:49:44.700 has been proven really in real time to have been correct with some of his concerns around
00:49:50.460 some of the things that we can't discuss here on YouTube, but some of those novel products that
00:49:55.580 were massively pushed on the population. And he expressed his concerns back on the Alex Pearson
00:50:01.020 show in May of 2021 around biodistribution and some breaking studies that he had actually
00:50:07.980 atipped. So through access to information requests, he had atipped these studies and
00:50:12.860 documents out of Japan. And so he had to go to great lengths to have them translated and to
00:50:19.820 actually get his hands on the tangible science that was evolving and up to date at that time.
00:50:25.900 And as time has continued on and we've seen the real world data being collected with some of these
00:50:30.860 novel products, it's showing that the concerns of Dr. Bridal, which wasn't really saying anything
00:50:36.700 either way, just, hey, this is groundbreaking science at that time, you know, three, sorry,
00:50:41.900 two years ago now. And his concerns have all been validated ever since through other scientific
00:50:47.340 ventures that have come out in the last two years. And so instead of validating him and saying,
00:50:53.580 you know what, we should have listened to you two long years ago and we could have prevented a lot
00:50:57.580 of the damage and the fallout of some of this stuff that has happened. And again, I have to be careful.
00:51:02.380 It's unfortunate that we have to sort of self-censor on this platform, but he still faces complete
00:51:10.140 slandering, smearing of his career. He's still ousted from his institution to be able to do the lab work
00:51:15.020 that he was conducting prior to the pandemonium that saw the mandates in place and things like this.
00:51:20.940 So we really delved into that rabbit, then the rabbit hole of misinformation. I have done a few
00:51:27.580 reports the last two weeks on that being publicly funded, by the way, Canadians, your taxpayer dollars
00:51:31.980 are hard at work to fund workshops through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research on
00:51:37.100 misinformation, combating it, identifying it, how to dispel it through social media influencers.
00:51:42.780 Like these aren't scientists. These aren't people who are debunking the actual science. They're
00:51:47.420 basically parrots for the consensus. And so I'm going to be continuing kind of following the beat
00:51:54.060 of misinformation and who determines what is and what is not misinformation and how science, which is
00:52:00.300 always evolving. Like, you know, when they said the science is settled, well, that is in itself
00:52:04.940 anti-science. Science is is a series of questions. It's hypothesis. It's never it's never concise.
00:52:13.900 It's never settled. And so, yeah, follow me for more on that misinformation stuff. And you can check
00:52:20.380 out some of those clips on Rumble. I don't think they were YouTube safe. So you'll have to scroll
00:52:24.300 back a little bit. But from last Tuesday, that was a great albeit infuriating interview. And by the way,
00:52:29.980 you just had to like twist the knife there. I mentioned that you were the guest host
00:52:34.780 on the Ezra Levent show. See that folks that used to be my due rigueur duty. I was always the backup
00:52:41.740 goalie. Think of the Montreal Canadiens in the 70s. You had Ken Dryden as a starter. That would be
00:52:46.780 Ezra Levent, the all star. And I'm kind of like your Bunny LaRock backup goalie. But then here comes
00:52:53.420 another backup. Watch out. Oh, my gosh, because this is, you know, and I know what's going on.
00:52:58.700 Every time I get a gig, super producer Efren, he's got to put the manzoid out to pasture 1.00
00:53:04.380 for some reason. I guess I'm getting a little too old or something. But anyway, you thrive in the field,
00:53:09.660 David. We have to get you out in the field. David in the wild. That's where David shows off his best
00:53:15.260 abilities. Yeah, that's right. Mutual of Omaha, wild kingdom. My goodness. So let's get to the
00:53:20.460 justice minister in this unjust world. David Lamedi. Oh, my goodness. He tables legislation
00:53:26.460 to reform bail system. Folks, do you think that was organic by the blackface liberals? Or do you 0.98
00:53:32.860 think that just maybe, just maybe all 10 premiers and all three leaders of the territories demanded
00:53:42.700 that bail reform get amended? Now, Tamara, can you think of another issue in Canadian politics when
00:53:51.660 you have 13 out of 13 leaders, 100 percent on one side? I can't. You know, even Quebec,
00:54:00.300 you know, the distinct society, they're all in on this. And the other country within Canada. Yeah.
00:54:05.260 Right. And little wonder you have. I mean, the morale of the police force, not only do they have
00:54:10.540 to take that transgender training and pass the module or else forever retake it, but they're 1.00
00:54:17.260 arresting real bad guys, real trash. And it's like a revolving door. They get bail or sometimes there's
00:54:25.820 not even bail asked for. They're back out on the streets. These are violent criminals. Sometimes with
00:54:30.860 firearms. You know how blackface is going after the Saskatchewan duck hunters, because that's the 1.00
00:54:37.580 real source of the problem in a high crime corridor such as Jane and Finch in Toronto.
00:54:43.340 And meanwhile, the worst of the worst, we turn a blind eye to. First of all, even if you are a 0.84
00:54:47.980 liberal supporter, Tamara, can you explain this to me? Well, it's all under this idea of having a
00:54:53.340 progressive justice system. So the Justin Trudeau liberals have made changes to the criminal code.
00:54:57.900 They've instituted this progressive judicial system, which prioritizes feelings over actual
00:55:04.540 public safety. So here we have, and this is an article that we pulled up from CTV News,
00:55:10.460 where the justice minister is set to unveil a bail bill targeting repeat violent offenders with reverse
00:55:17.820 onus reforms. And they are actually announcing that currently. So that is currently taking place,
00:55:23.420 where justice minister David Lamedi will table this new legislation targeted at the criminal code
00:55:29.740 reforms. And he's doing it with Marco Mendocino, the the MP who basically said that they wanted to
00:55:40.220 bring in a how many they he asked how many tanks they could bring in to squash the freedom convoy
00:55:46.700 that took to the nation's capital back in January and February. Oh, well, if Pinocchio is down with
00:55:53.180 this, then, you know, what what could go wrong? And I see there. Oh, and associate minister of health,
00:56:00.140 Carolyn Bennett. Yes. Right. Yeah. That would be Dr. Bennett. That would be that doctor who back in
00:56:06.300 the nineties, folks under the correction regime, even though she's a medical doctor, she voted against
00:56:11.580 compensation for hep C victims. Yeah. Way to go, Dr. Death. Your credibility is ironclad in my book,
00:56:19.980 too. What what a crew. I mean, they are. There's no ethics. There's no morals. And you know what is
00:56:28.540 making my spidey sense tingle right now to marry you, Galini, is the fact that this is only seven pages
00:56:35.500 of them. So really. And by the way, I do want to read the seven pages. It won't take long. But
00:56:43.660 I'm wondering if they're covering all the bases. That is incredibly a short piece of legislation,
00:56:49.740 seven pages. So I just wonder if Lamedi and company are talking this up as this is a utopia
00:56:57.900 to the bail condition debacle that's in Canada or if this is really a paper tiger and for that matter,
00:57:05.500 a toothless tiger. Well, and it's being called Bill C-48. So I'm always nervous or or cautiously
00:57:14.380 optimistic when certain things like this are introduced, because what else is buried in this
00:57:19.900 legislation that really has nothing to do with the bail reforms, but will affect all Canadians and make
00:57:27.900 kind of these broad, ambiguous changes to our criminal code and the criminal justice system.
00:57:34.220 So we have the the the bill itself pulled up here on the screen. I don't know if you can see
00:57:41.580 you can see it, David. You said you wanted to read the points.
00:57:44.220 Yeah, of course, because I'm Clark Kent and I can, you know, I'm the mild man
00:57:48.220 reporter that can read microscopic three point type on the screen. Are you crazy?
00:57:54.380 The well, the CTV article gives a kind of a broad overview of some of the changes,
00:57:59.580 but there is a lot here. So maybe as this, you know, as this story unfolds and we hear more about
00:58:06.780 what is actually being proposed, how they're going to achieve these things. I mean, this comes at a time
00:58:11.020 when these repeat offenders are now causing, you know, there are innocent victims in their midst.
00:58:18.380 I mean, just most recently, a story that really resonated me was a stabbing in Calgary where a
00:58:24.220 mother was picking up her two children from school and she and her 11 year old were both,
00:58:30.700 you know, stabbed and succumbed to their injuries. And the eight year old was able to run and flee
00:58:35.100 the scene, but saw it all. And this was like out front of a school. And this was a repeat offender
00:58:42.860 known to be kind of off the charts, known to have a criminal history, I think was even out on bail.
00:58:49.900 And lo and behold, moves ahead and actually moves forward with such a heinous crime at
00:59:00.220 no one, such innocent victims that are just these random attacks seem to be occurring more frequently.
00:59:07.420 And again, because there is no repercussions for those actions.
00:59:11.180 It's grotesque. And I got to tell you, Tamara, I'm getting a sense of deja vu. And what I mean by that
00:59:17.580 is remember the shite storm of criticism about the Young Offenders Act, people a day short of their 18th
00:59:25.580 birthday getting away with less than two years at a juvenile delinquency place for first degree murder,
00:59:33.420 you know. And that was replaced, remember, with the Criminal Youth Justice Act. And oh, hooray,
00:59:39.740 there's going to be a new sheriff in town. Well, as The Who once sang, meet the new boss,
00:59:43.980 same as the old boss. It was probably just as bad or even worse. And, you know, it's not about me
00:59:49.740 being a hard ass when it comes to kids when we're younger and dumber, as the saying goes. But you know
00:59:57.500 what, Tamara, I think there's a difference between giving a kid a break who is a shoplifter at a
01:00:03.500 department store or went on a joy ride with a stolen car and nobody got hurt or anything like that
01:00:10.780 compared to first degree murder. I think if you're 17, I think if you're even seven, you realize not to
01:00:18.220 pick up a cinder block and drop it on your baby brother's head and kill him. This is the fatal flaw
01:00:24.780 of these acts for the youth. It doesn't differentiate the very worst heinous crimes as opposed to, well,
01:00:34.860 what the Americans would call misdemeanors. And just like this bail reform, the devil is always
01:00:42.300 in the details. So I want to actually see the legislation word for word, you know. Yeah,
01:00:49.100 and I'm sorry if I'm a little skeptical of CTV. Right. I mean, healthy skepticism as we all
01:00:55.580 should be. I wonder why that would be. Well, and it seems, you know, on the surface to be a fairly
01:00:59.820 balanced article because I just want to go back before we wrap things up quickly to that CTV
01:01:05.660 report where it says, what led up to this bail bill? And it says, calls for reforms ramped up in the fall,
01:01:13.260 following the news that one of the suspects in a deadly September 2022 stabbing spree in Saskatchewan
01:01:19.420 had been wanted for months for allegedly breaching release conditions. In October,
01:01:24.540 former B.C. Attorney General Murray Rankin pointed to reforms in Bill C-75, a federal bill passed in 2019
01:01:32.060 that was designed in part to modernize and streamline bail procedures, saying that the liberal
01:01:38.460 law changes were inadvertently causing more repeat offenders to end up on the streets.
01:01:43.420 Unbelievable. There you have it. Well, and you know what? Even if there are
01:01:47.100 good tangible changes here, I go back to my original point, Tamara. It was 10 premiers and
01:01:52.220 three territorial leaders demanding it. It was 13 out of 13 saying, do something. This is not an organic
01:01:59.420 come to Jesus moment for the blackface liberals. And, you know, and and really, because when you look 0.90
01:02:05.820 at the lower levels of government, they're the ones dealing with the the crime, a lot of the police
01:02:11.580 directly. Exactly. And not only that, but the people, these innocent victims in all of these stories
01:02:18.300 are who it ends up affecting permanently lifelong damaging effects of these liberal led progressive
01:02:25.980 policies. And how long is it going to take us to say these policies are not working time and time
01:02:32.380 again. Now we're starting to see the culmination, the fallout of these liberal policies, whether it
01:02:37.100 be our school system, our judicial system, these these LGBTQ radicals infiltrating every sect of our 1.00
01:02:44.460 society. When are we finally going to say none of this is working the way that it's intended to?
01:02:50.540 It sounds flowery and good on the surface, but as we see the repercussions of it now, years later,
01:02:57.020 what's it going to take to say finally, once and for all, this isn't working?
01:03:00.700 And one more point, Tamara, and it goes back to one of our points that we discussed earlier,
01:03:05.340 it's the hypocrisy. As much as blackface hates guns and wants to grab them all from law abiding 0.93
01:03:12.540 Canadian gun owners and hunters and sport shooters. When blackface goes to a public event, do you think 0.78
01:03:20.140 he's going driving up in daddy's vintage Mercedes? No, he's in a motorcade with heavily armed RCMP
01:03:28.780 bodyguards that who sometimes self identify as henchmen and thugs when it comes to certain
01:03:34.700 members of the fifth estate. But I digress. And even, you know, if you ever, you know, Bill Blair,
01:03:41.980 ex Toronto police chief, who knows, by the way, the gun grab will have 0.0 effect on violent crime in
01:03:49.180 Canada. Folks, if you ever see Bill Blair, if you really want to bust his balls, ask him this,
01:03:55.980 why do you represent a riding that you don't live in? He represents a riding of Toronto in Scarborough
01:04:03.820 that has its issues with violent crime. Oh, but it's not going to affect Bill Blair because he's living
01:04:11.180 in Forest Hill, perhaps one of the top three neighborhoods in Toronto. That really grinds his
01:04:20.220 gears. So just in case you run into the ex chief, remind him that. Why don't you live in your crime
01:04:26.460 infested riding as opposed to one of the top three neighborhoods in Toronto? You coward. Anyways.
01:04:33.980 Well, with that, we're seven minutes over, David. How do you like that? Time flies. The clock says 820.
01:04:39.340 What's with these trained broadcast professionals? I thought we were doing a reset.
01:04:45.260 Well, folks, thank you so much for tuning in, especially those who made a financial contribution.
01:04:50.860 It's how we keep these very bright lights on. And thank you. They are. And thank you to our super
01:04:56.940 producers, Olivia and Efron behind the board. And of course, to my lovely co-host. Can I call you
01:05:02.700 lovely? Oh, of course. Oh, thank goodness. I don't have to worry about one of those HR complaints again.
01:05:08.220 I will be back here tomorrow with another rebel news personality. Please tune in at one o'clock
01:05:15.500 Eastern. In the meantime, folks, as always, stay safe and stay sane.
