Summary

In this episode, the Senate debates the impact of the Idle No More protest in Ottawa, Canada, on the rights and safety of Indigenous people, and the use of lethal force by police to quell the protest. Senators Atulajan, Houssakos, Batters, and Pate all speak on the need for Indigenous people to have the right to demonstrate peacefully.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Police did show greater strain. I mean, we were all glued to our TV sets, just wondering
00:00:19.900 what was happening in Ottawa.
00:00:22.520 Senator Pate?
00:00:23.940 Just supplementary. So you would share the concern that many of us, that regardless of
00:00:28.420 which party formed the government, there would be concern about not using this against individuals
00:00:34.560 in a way that would actually reinforce stereotypes and discriminatory attitudes.
00:00:42.100 Yes, I would.
00:00:42.980 Thank you.
00:00:45.000 Senator Houssakos?
00:00:46.760 I don't think I misrepresent it at all. I think Senator Pate and I are on the same page,
00:00:55.540 and I just want to clarify what you're saying, Senator Atulajan, is what I believe I hear
00:01:00.540 from you is that any group of protesters in this country, environmentalists, indigenous
00:01:04.680 groups, Black Lives Matter, people that are anti-mandates, that they have that fundamental
00:01:10.840 right to do it without the threat of this draconian hammer being dropped in the future.
00:01:18.400 And what I'm trying to get across is this dangerous precedent, something that future governments
00:01:25.280 that have a problem with the agenda of certain minority groups, or have a problem with groups
00:01:29.820 that just don't fit their political agenda, would this set a precedent that is very dangerous
00:01:35.880 vis-a-vis all groups?
00:01:38.540 Senator Atulajan.
00:01:39.720 Senator, I would agree with you. It does set a dangerous precedent.
00:01:43.720 I mean, I'm all for demonstration. Like I said, we need to have peaceful protests.
00:01:49.160 We need to give the Canadians the ability to let us know how they feel.
00:01:54.180 Like Senator Batters mentioned yesterday, the Ukrainian community is very, very concerned.
00:01:58.860 And I know that in Toronto, they were out there expressing their concern.
00:02:02.260 They were out there protesting. But yet in the federal capital, the seat of the government,
00:02:07.840 they cannot come. So I hear you. But it's always, as a human rights person, I support peaceful
00:02:16.540 protest. Not anyone feeling threatened, not anyone feeling that they don't have the ability
00:02:21.800 to perform their duties or go to work. Like we did see. I mean, there were instances where,
00:02:28.240 and I know some young girls in scarf had to be accompanied. It was one of our own MPs,
00:02:33.160 you know, brought that issue up. So we were seeing that. So I think it's better to look
00:02:37.380 at the reality of what was happening. And we wish it didn't happen. We wish it had been
00:02:41.860 handled better. But we have a prime minister who was missing. We didn't hear anything from
00:02:46.600 the government. And I fended calls from irate liberal supporters who said,
00:02:51.740 where's our prime minister? So, you know, peaceful protest, I'm all for it.
00:02:55.560 You're here. Resuming debate, en débat, Senatrice Odette.
00:03:02.580 Senator Odette.
00:03:07.140 Thank you, Madam Speaker. Dear colleagues, first, I would like to thank the Wendat Nations,
00:03:15.000 the Inuit, the Wolastiquet, Atskemec, for welcoming me on their land here in Quebec.
00:03:21.340 I'm rising for the first time before you, but this is not my inaugural speech. I will be offering
00:03:30.560 it shortly in response to the speech from the throne. The stakes seem too high at this point,
00:03:38.020 and they compel me to share my thoughts and observations as a person, but as a senator from
00:03:43.480 Quebec. I would like to share my feelings and my observations that lead to more questions.
00:03:51.340 As you know, I supported the statement of the Caucus of Black Parliamentarians in relation to the
00:03:55.980 protests that took place in Ottawa on unceded Anishinaabeg territory. I also joined the voices
00:04:01.860 of Indigenous senators on these same events. I would also like to remind you that the Federation of
00:04:07.960 Sovereign Indigenous Nations of Saskatchewan, the Algonquin of Pequotnagin, the Algonquin
00:04:14.940 Anishinaabeg Nation Tribal Council and the Anishinaabeg Nation of Kitiganzibi have also expressed their
00:04:22.620 concern over the violation of the First Nations protocols, the appropriation and misuse of
00:04:29.340 traditional sacred objects and ceremonies. These are precious and sacred. I continue to support and stand
00:04:37.500 behind these statements. I firmly uphold the right of everyone to demonstrate peacefully. Here's why.
00:04:47.500 Peaceful demonstration is part of my own past. I participated through Past Activated and
00:04:54.780 I'd like to talk to some of them. Idle No More, the America Summit,
00:04:58.300 the Wendake Amun March in Ottawa and many times on the Parliament Hill, many times on the grounds of the
00:05:08.620 Assemblée Nationale and in front of the Supreme Court in order to decry injustices faced by Indigenous women.
00:05:17.980 On a few occasions, I've heard
00:05:26.140 us refer to Indigenous protests and we associate firearms to these, but I would like to reassure you,
00:05:33.740 the only tool that I brought to these protests was my voice and my point of view. That being said,
00:05:41.980 I cannot support hate, intolerance, the use of hate symbols or violence in any form.
00:05:53.580 In the last few weeks, as many have said it, I hurt for Canada. Canada is trying to eliminate racism
00:06:05.660 through its institutions through many institutions. My question that has been raised many times in the
00:06:13.100 past few weeks is that if the protesters were Black, Indigenous or other
00:06:21.500 cultural groups, how would they have been met? How would this protest have lasted like this? And my answer
00:06:27.500 is simple. They would not have been tolerated and this would not have lasted. The tolerance
00:06:36.380 of protesters that are Indigenous or Black is lower and we have proof of this. Police interventions
00:06:44.540 and other measures like injunctions happened must much faster when racialized Indigenous or vulnerable
00:06:54.700 people are protesting. As mentioned in an article by Audrey Zipti, Associate Professor of History at Carleton
00:07:03.740 University. In 2016, on the very first day of a peaceful protest in Toronto, Black Lives Movement
00:07:12.780 participants were beaten and gassed by police.
00:07:15.500 The same person says, in 2020, in Ottawa, a protest at a key intersection advocating for Black and Indigenous lives
00:07:28.860 resulted in 12 people being charged and the protests being called off in three days.
00:07:38.620 Now on to Emilie Nicola from Le Devoir. He says, while racialized parents are being reported to child
00:07:45.900 protection services for nothing, dozens of children have been in Ottawa at the convoy for several weeks
00:07:53.260 in questionable conditions. And I will add personally, no one lifted a finger.
00:08:00.620 Emilie Nicola continues to say,
00:08:03.740 remind, continues to remind us of the homeless encampments that police have aggressively raised
00:08:09.420 citing the risk of fire. While there are countless Indigenous leaders who have been under tight police
00:08:15.100 surveillance, the authorities are so unconcerned about the dangers posed by the far right that we're
00:08:21.020 we were surprised by the occupation and sedition intentions that were clearly stated online
00:08:27.180 of several of the convoy's organizers." End quote.
00:08:31.980 I would also like to use today's platform, I could use today's platform to inflame the political discourse,
00:08:38.140 but I won't do that. I will only express that certain parliamentarians, unfortunately,
00:08:43.260 speak out of both sides of their mouths. A double standard in the face of blockades held by Indigenous
00:08:49.100 people and those who stormed Parliament Hill. An ethnologist that I respect very much, Isabelle Picard,
00:08:57.180 who is Wendat, also wrote in an article recently. She said, and I quote,
00:09:03.020 about two years ago to the day, all the news was focused on the Wet'suwet'en and what the media had
00:09:10.460 called, at best, the railway crisis. At worst, the Indigenous crisis. Because this crisis was far from
00:09:19.180 being entirely Indigenous, the people on the tracks were from all over. The people arrested were indeed
00:09:27.500 Indigenous, unfortunately. Almost all of them. At least in the traditional territory of the Wet'suwet'en.
00:09:35.980 Twenty-eight people had been arrested by the RCMP after a coastal gas link injunction obtained by this
00:09:44.780 company for a major gas pipeline that was run through the Wet'suwet'en territory. Since those
00:09:50.540 pre-COVID events, negotiations have been mired in a status quo. On the board, about 50 more arrests.
00:09:57.500 Almost all of them Indigenous people, women and elders in the mix. Ten days ago, a complaint was
00:10:06.620 filed at the UN by opponents of the pipeline for violation of several articles on the UN Declaration
00:10:13.580 on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Picard added that there are many differences between the events
00:10:19.580 in Ottawa and those in British Columbia. One group burned thousands of liters of oil to make their point,
00:10:26.620 while the others wanted to stop the oil from flowing onto their land. Some speak of freedom,
00:10:32.300 because they know it too well, and others can only hope for it, because they no longer know it.
00:10:37.820 Both sides, more if you count regional duplicates, however, are willing to stay put for as long as it
00:10:47.900 takes to defend their beliefs." The evident herds and inquiries, including the national inquiry into
00:10:57.420 missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, clearly demonstrates the abuses of First Nations,
00:11:03.100 Métis and Inuit human rights committed and condoned by the Canadian state. These abuses continue to
00:11:10.220 perpetuate an environment where trivialized violence is allowed to fester and perpetrators act with impunity.
00:11:17.980 Our trust in the institutions is almost non-existent, but we continue to hope for this trust.
00:11:30.220 I continue to hope for it. However, faced with such events, in light of the clemency of these same
00:11:37.660 institutions, one cannot be surprised or even offended by our reaction, our questioning, our amazement.
00:11:45.180 So I find myself standing here, bewildered. Why is there no mention of racism and the use of hateful
00:11:54.220 symbols in the text of the proclamation of a public order emergency? Why are the tools and measures not
00:12:02.380 applied in the same way to all? Certainly, it is important to make sure that everyone has the right to
00:12:11.820 live safely and peacefully. And the people of Ottawa have their city back. But we can't ignore the threats
00:12:20.140 that still exist in Ottawa and across the country. How can we ensure that the daily lives of the silent
00:12:27.820 majority are no longer impeded in this way? But more importantly, how can we allow small groups to
00:12:36.380 undermine and weaken our democracy? I have another concern. Using the Emergencies Act, can using the
00:12:47.820 Emergency Measures Act justify restricting the right to legitimate protests? I hope not. So I urge my
00:12:56.300 colleagues to ensure that a First Nations, Métis or Inuit Senator and a Senator from the Caucus of Black
00:13:03.740 Parliamentarians be part of the Parliamentary Review Committee or any other measure that is to be
00:13:09.660 deployed to review the government's action under the Act. This is important to me. We need to bring a
00:13:19.980 different perspective and a diverse perspective to this. The same principle should apply as to who
00:13:28.060 should conduct the inquiry and report to each House of the Parliament within 360 days of the end or
00:13:34.540 revocation of the state of emergency. It's important here again to have a Métis, Inuit or First Nations lens.
00:13:42.300 As said, Isabelle Picard, let's come back to love and peace. Let's not, it does not seem to be our biggest
00:13:51.980 problem. But to speak of love, we must also speak of hate and war. And to speak of freedom, we have to
00:13:56.940 speak of servitude and slavery. And in my heart, I care for social justice and equality. And I dream of an,
00:14:09.180 of a society that is equal, where everyone has their space, where their cultures and their languages
00:14:14.060 and histories are respected. I think debate is important.
00:14:19.900 And I am here to listen, and I will take position soon. Thank you.
00:14:27.020 On debate, Senator Wallen.
00:14:31.820 Colleagues, the question we are being asked to consider is this. Did the events here in Ottawa over
00:14:37.900 the last three weeks meet the threshold for this extraordinary imposition of the Emergencies
00:14:43.420 Measures Act? And today, this question remains, why is it still in place? The emergency has been met,
00:14:51.420 the blockade is gone, and surely the authorities will not be caught so flat-footed ever again.
00:14:57.900 So the threat that protesters may come back in force seems unlikely. Intelligence operatives and police
00:15:04.540 have surveillance and investigations underway to deal with crimes in the making, plots,
00:15:10.060 or new actions. They had those powers before the invocation of the Emergencies Act.
00:15:16.940 In a letter sent to parliamentarians from the Advocates for the Rule of Law, a nonpartisan
00:15:22.140 think tank, they argued the following. The failure of the government and police to enforce existing
00:15:28.140 laws and court orders is not a sound basis to expand state power with the declaration of a public
00:15:34.940 order emergency, when no such emergency has been proven to exist. One rule of law failure should
00:15:42.220 not beget another. The letter goes on to state, it risks a gradual erosion of parliament's role in
00:15:49.180 favour of executive power, and it amounts to a damning admission of failure of state capacity.
00:15:55.420 If Canada is to remain a functional and free democracy, then it must be able to solve problems
00:16:01.580 using existing laws and established institutions, and without resorting to the most extreme measures
00:16:07.820 except when absolutely necessary. So I think we can all agree on both the importance of the rule of law
00:16:15.740 in Canada and the objectivity of the courts, which together form the foundation of a just society.
00:16:22.700 The Emergency Act asks Canadians to forfeit this most basic tenet of our democracy.
00:16:30.700 In fact, what we actually witnessed was a colossal failure of leadership at all levels. I think it's
00:16:37.660 fair to say that the convoy protest became an encampment due to the failure of planning and the inability to
00:16:44.860 react. There was not a single barricade. Protesters were actually directed to Wellington Street,
00:16:51.260 the main access to parliament. There were existing laws to move trucks or do something about
00:16:56.860 horns or diesel fumes or clog streets, but those laws were not employed. And so it's difficult to
00:17:04.540 accept now that bad decisions and inaction justifies using an act reserved for the most dire national
00:17:13.100 security crisis. This act is meant to be used, well, never. And here is why. Its application is a judgment
00:17:23.340 call and judgments are political by definition when the government of the day substitutes itself
00:17:30.380 for parliament or the objectivity of the courts. The act comes first, then permission is sought.
00:17:36.700 Invoking the Emergencies Act in this context has made the law a subject of partisan contention.
00:17:44.460 And when the Prime Minister made this, for all intents and purposes, a vote of confidence in his government,
00:17:49.420 well, it only further illustrates the problem. This is at the core of why emergency legislation is so risky
00:17:57.180 and so dangerous. The ability in a free and democratic society to protest requires the blind application of the law.
00:18:06.700 The Prime Minister deemed some protests in Canada to be acts of democracy, even participates in some.
00:18:13.820 No action was taken against church burnings or topplers of statues. That was called understandable.
00:18:19.580 But the Prime Minister declared the trucker protests here in Ottawa, the protesters to be racist, white supremacists,
00:18:27.980 misogynists, people he didn't like and would never talk to. But does being frustrated, angry or critical of government actually make you an enemy?
00:18:38.380 And so the issue is who should decide what is lawful advocacy and what is an illegal protest or occupation?
00:18:46.780 Who is to decide to whom laws apply or whose actions can trigger the invocation of the emergency act?
00:18:55.580 That is why we have the rule of law and the obligation to make your case for extra powers to a court and not leave it to the judgment call of the government of the day.
00:19:05.580 So why the Emergencies Act now? We did not see it invoked at the G10 or OCA or when Parliament was attacked in 2014.
00:19:13.980 We did not even see it at 9-11.
00:19:17.180 I lived in New York then and witnessed the fear and genuine crisis that unfolded.
00:19:22.640 And even during those extraordinary times, there were fierce debates over what was called a ticking time bomb situation.
00:19:31.280 How far can and should you go to fight terrorism?
00:19:34.340 The argument was, for example, can you waterboard someone to get information to defuse the ticking bomb?
00:19:43.080 History teaches us that too often actions taken in the heat of the moment, even in the face of actual terrorism,
00:19:50.200 proved to be ill-considered and were rejected once they became known.
00:19:54.060 But that was months, even years after the fact.
00:19:57.060 One issue today that I find particularly troubling here is the foreign involvement and financing being used as a justification.
00:20:07.200 Foreign money has been flowing into this country for years to support or oppose a variety of political causes and issues.
00:20:15.720 Stop a pipeline, save a whale or support a truck convoy.
00:20:18.980 So why is it okay for some causes to be funded by foreign supporters but not others?
00:20:25.100 The Finance Minister stated that new Fintrack rules expanded under the new Act
00:20:30.940 will allow for greater financial reporting obligations of crowdfunding sites and cryptocurrency platforms
00:20:36.980 and will be made permanent with legislation.
00:20:39.760 I agree, Fintrack, as it stands, lacks the necessary teeth needed to track the finances of criminals or extremist groups.
00:20:49.040 But to use this as an opportunity to test out new laws is deeply unparliamentary
00:20:54.780 and takes advantage of this situation to advance policy, perhaps even political goals.
00:21:01.500 If you want Fintrack 3.0, then present it, defend it, and vote on it.
00:21:07.540 Again, we see the extraordinary powers before a parliamentary vote.
00:21:13.460 If you disagree with the government, can you be excluded from economic activity in this country?
00:21:19.720 Can your finances be frozen or essentially sealed?
00:21:24.020 The remedies for those who have been unfairly targeted require resources
00:21:28.140 because banks and financial institutions have been given immunity from liability under this new Act.
00:21:35.380 So appealing to your bank or the police or the courts is probably not going to resolve the matter.
00:21:41.700 And it is costly.
00:21:43.360 And if your resources are frozen, then it's not even an option.
00:21:47.020 So many are caught in this Catch-22.
00:21:50.380 Of course, no one wants our way of life, our democratic rights and freedoms,
00:21:55.320 or our system of government put at risk.
00:21:58.160 So what other options are there other than the imposition of a draconian law?
00:22:04.940 We saw in Coutts and Emerson and at Windsor's Ambassador Bridge talking,
00:22:12.880 and more importantly, listening, brought blockades and protests to an end.
00:22:19.040 Criminals were charged and arrested.
00:22:20.860 The weapons cache was seized under existing laws.
00:22:26.220 But that did not happen here in Ottawa.
00:22:29.400 Why?
00:22:30.420 Well, as Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair said,
00:22:35.380 we cannot leave anyone with the impression that our democracy is negotiable
00:22:39.480 or subject to efforts of appeasement.
00:22:42.580 The discussions in Coutts and Emerson and Windsor did not erode trust in public institutions
00:22:48.220 or put our democracy at risk.
00:22:51.140 Talking helped.
00:22:52.820 Listening helped.
00:22:54.180 And it could have been an opportunity to turn the temperature way down,
00:22:58.200 calm the fears, and bridge the differences here in Ottawa, too.
00:23:02.640 Colleagues, I come from a part of the country where it's normal to wear camo,
00:23:08.540 drive a semi for a living,
00:23:10.960 bring your kids to events because you don't have a nanny,
00:23:14.640 or be sceptical of almost any government intervention in your daily life, mandates included.
00:23:22.700 Many truckers have been working all through the pandemic,
00:23:26.020 delivering things we needed or simply wanted.
00:23:29.700 They had no place to eat and were left to use the side of the road.
00:23:34.660 These were folks at the heart of the convoy,
00:23:38.020 not the opportunistic agitators that rose to prominence,
00:23:42.000 commandeered the headlines, and in the process became the justification for this bill.
00:23:48.680 Ultimately, this debate is a litmus test.
00:23:52.560 The result will reflect your own experience,
00:23:55.420 your own beliefs, your own worldview.
00:23:58.740 Sitting with colleagues in a restaurant the other night
00:24:01.400 when the House vote was announced,
00:24:04.220 wild cheers broke out.
00:24:06.340 It felt more like a victory whoop at a sporting event
00:24:09.680 than the realization that our country
00:24:12.700 had just made a profound and very risky decision.
00:24:18.220 Democracy is messy.
00:24:20.980 Free speech is about tolerating speech you disagree with
00:24:24.220 so that you, in turn, are free to say what you believe.
00:24:28.600 Every day we tolerate risks and inconvenience and discomfort
00:24:33.520 to participate in and protect our democracy.
00:24:37.640 It's part of the price of upholding our rights and liberties.
00:24:43.620 Emergency powers cannot and must not be normalized,
00:24:48.240 especially at a time when more and more Canadians
00:24:51.320 are losing faith in our institutions.
00:24:54.820 The defenders of this bill say trust the government.
00:24:58.780 They will not go too far.
00:25:00.720 Just trust them.
00:25:01.760 Well, just watch me gave me no comfort,
00:25:06.440 and just trust me gives me less still.
00:25:10.320 The political fallout from the War Measures Act haunts us still.
00:25:15.500 It has shaped and distorted politics for half a century.
00:25:20.040 It had consequences nobody could have predicted.
00:25:23.300 I fear the same may happen.
00:25:26.720 That today, those who are rounded up may go silent, but not away.
00:25:32.820 That those who have been targeted, disparaged,
00:25:36.120 or have their livelihoods threatened
00:25:37.960 will disengage from our civic life.
00:25:41.600 I fear that others will decide that separatism is the only answer.
00:25:46.780 We have seen the precedence.
00:25:48.460 When people lose faith and trust in our national institution,
00:25:53.600 the ties that bind fray.
00:25:56.540 Canada itself is an act of faith.
00:25:59.620 Our east-west configuration is daily challenged
00:26:02.740 by the north-south pole of common geography,
00:26:06.700 shared interests, and trade.
00:26:09.300 If we ignore the reality of political difference,
00:26:12.580 if we pretend smugly that somehow partisan division
00:26:16.940 is an American phenomenon and foreign players are to blame,
00:26:21.040 that is to deny the very basis of our democracy.
00:26:25.860 Opposing the government of the day is democracy.
00:26:29.820 It's how it works.
00:26:31.420 It's why we have elections.
00:26:33.340 It's why we have debates and votes here and in the other place.
00:26:38.220 It's the very basis of our parliamentary democracy.
00:26:41.680 To silence criticism or dissent through extraordinary laws
00:26:46.980 is the very action we would decry and denounce
00:26:50.900 everywhere else in the world.
00:26:53.260 And that is why I will vote against this act.
00:26:56.360 Thank you, colleagues.
00:27:01.140 Resuming debate.
00:27:02.680 Senator Bosson.
00:27:05.880 Senator Bosson.
00:27:07.140 Honourable Senators.
00:27:10.860 Chers Senators.
00:27:12.240 Senator Bosson.
00:27:12.820 Arise today.
00:27:14.500 We have only five minutes left until the noon break.
00:27:19.940 Okay.
00:27:21.080 Okay.
00:27:21.760 So then we'll pause and you can resume.
00:27:25.560 Thank you very much, Madam Speaker.
00:27:28.800 Honourable Senators.
00:27:30.240 Chers Senators.
00:27:31.740 Arise today to speak in favour of the Emergencies Act.
00:27:34.980 Our capital and the entire country by association
00:27:38.040 had been taken hostage and continues to be at risk.
00:27:42.040 Early last week, it had unfortunately become clear
00:27:45.900 that the usual police procedures of the Municipal Police Force
00:27:50.020 had been overwhelmed, as their chief had put it.
00:27:53.420 The blame game is for another day,
00:27:55.260 but we now must step up to the plate.
00:27:58.080 Last Friday, the full force of the state,
00:28:00.420 enabled by the Emergencies Act,
00:28:02.020 began the process to end this occupation of our capital,
00:28:06.200 and we are now debating essentially whether we should sanction it.
00:28:09.980 We, as the Chamber of Sober Second Thought,
00:28:13.880 are called upon to act,
00:28:15.520 not for our own political beliefs or philosophies,
00:28:18.300 but for the greater good.
00:28:20.200 Like the pandemic itself,
00:28:21.940 this is one of those times when we must act decisively,
00:28:25.580 not in a partisan way,
00:28:27.200 in order to support our democracy
00:28:29.560 and those who put themselves in harm's way
00:28:31.660 to defend it for us.
00:28:33.260 This is not over,
00:28:34.960 as some of us have suggested.
00:28:37.340 I implore you to consider the message we would send
00:28:39.760 if, at this moment in history,
00:28:42.560 we take advantage of the freedom
00:28:44.420 that was won back for us this weekend,
00:28:46.780 and yet vote no for this matter,
00:28:49.520 disagreeing with the act coming into force
00:28:51.400 in the first place.
00:28:52.880 Again, this is not over.
00:28:54.440 Those who coach the occupation of our nation's capital
00:28:57.780 and the attendant roadblocks across Canada
00:29:00.100 will be emboldened
00:29:01.580 if we, dear colleagues,
00:29:04.080 do not support our national institutions,
00:29:06.800 its police officers,
00:29:07.880 and the rule of law.
00:29:09.400 I will repeat again,
00:29:10.720 this is not over.
00:29:12.320 I'm so proud of the police officers
00:29:14.620 from across the country.
00:29:16.340 In the past days,
00:29:17.320 they employed textbook professional policing techniques,
00:29:20.740 using their powers in a measured way,
00:29:22.780 no tear gas,
00:29:23.520 no rioting,
00:29:24.680 no looting,
00:29:25.700 and no loss of life.
00:29:27.360 The Emergencies Act continues
00:29:29.000 to enable the police
00:29:30.160 to react with strength
00:29:31.380 and to ensure our democracy
00:29:33.480 is re-established.
00:29:35.180 If we vote no,
00:29:36.460 the wrong message will be sent.
00:29:38.680 Contrary to suggestions made today
00:29:40.520 that we can just invoke it again
00:29:42.740 if we get this wrong,
00:29:44.640 are untenable.
00:29:46.100 We never want to invoke this again.
00:29:49.660 Truckers and their supporters
00:29:50.940 gathered in Ottawa
00:29:51.900 on or about January 29th
00:29:53.720 to rally against mask mandates,
00:29:55.900 lockdowns,
00:29:56.820 restrictions on gatherings,
00:29:58.100 and other COVID-19 preventative measures.
00:30:01.540 These peaceful protesters,
00:30:03.220 comprised of Canadian citizens,
00:30:06.300 exercising the right to demonstrate,
00:30:08.500 soon found their cause
00:30:09.820 co-opted by a much darker element
00:30:12.060 in our society.
00:30:13.540 Call them what you will,
00:30:14.580 but know that they stand
00:30:17.920 for the overthrow of our government
00:30:19.440 and the dissolution
00:30:20.360 of our democracy.
00:30:22.480 Canada prides itself
00:30:23.720 on embracing
00:30:25.000 and supporting human rights
00:30:26.520 enshrined in the Charter
00:30:27.780 of Rights and Freedoms.
00:30:29.220 Our Charter describes our rights
00:30:30.960 and what we can expect
00:30:32.840 and demand
00:30:33.580 in our civil society,
00:30:34.760 but also suggests
00:30:36.200 that with this,
00:30:37.360 a corresponding contract exists
00:30:39.060 to respect the rights
00:30:40.260 of others as well.
00:30:42.040 Freedom is a two-way street.
00:30:43.620 Balance to ensure
00:30:45.180 that the rights of one
00:30:46.740 do not infringe
00:30:48.060 on the rights of another.
00:30:49.460 We depend on this balance
00:30:50.820 to live our life together
00:30:52.180 with respect.
00:30:53.620 One of these rights
00:30:54.500 is the right
00:30:55.660 to speak against the government
00:30:57.220 and to oppose any law
00:30:58.600 we disagree with.
00:30:59.960 However,
00:31:00.600 and disturbingly,
00:31:01.760 there has been
00:31:02.560 a wave of ultra-right groups
00:31:04.340 who have taken
00:31:04.900 the trucker-inspired protest
00:31:07.320 against mask mandates
00:31:08.720 and morphed it into a movement
00:31:11.020 that is not only disruptive
00:31:12.700 to the rights
00:31:13.340 of the citizens
00:31:14.360 of Ottawa,
00:31:15.680 but also has brazenly
00:31:17.180 ignored the rule of law
00:31:18.720 and created an environment
00:31:20.280 and hatred
00:31:21.000 for those who live
00:31:22.240 and work in our nation's capital.
00:31:24.360 Spin-off protests
00:31:25.340 have occurred
00:31:26.180 and are still occurring
00:31:27.300 around the country
00:31:29.520 as well as
00:31:30.180 at border crossings
00:31:31.120 and airports.
00:31:32.680 Hardcore members
00:31:33.420 of these groups
00:31:34.440 thwarted requests
00:31:35.980 and negotiations
00:31:36.740 to have them leave.
00:31:37.820 They lock down,
00:31:39.300 thumbing their noses
00:31:40.080 not just at the police,
00:31:41.760 but at the rights
00:31:42.420 of each and every one of us
00:31:43.840 to be safe and secure.
00:31:45.700 Those in Ottawa
00:31:46.600 were the hardest hit,
00:31:47.640 but the entire country
00:31:48.760 has felt the sting
00:31:49.700 of this lawlessness
00:31:51.140 and disrespect
00:31:52.000 as we watch
00:31:53.020 the nation's capital
00:31:54.040 be turned into
00:31:55.160 an amusement park
00:31:56.020 for anarchists.
00:31:57.420 Make no mistake,
00:31:58.700 their mission remains
00:32:00.420 dismantling
00:32:01.100 of our government
00:32:01.860 and replacing it
00:32:03.200 with our government.
00:32:07.820 Warning, censorship.
00:32:13.500 Warning, censorship.
00:32:15.740 Warning, censorship.
00:32:18.100 Good afternoon,
00:32:19.380 ladies and gentlemen.
00:32:21.120 Welcome to the Rebel News
00:32:22.520 Daily Livestream.
00:32:24.660 My name is Dakota Christensen
00:32:25.900 and I am joined today
00:32:27.280 by the one and only
00:32:28.480 Ian Miles Chong.
00:32:29.920 How are you doing, Ian?
00:32:31.420 I'm doing great
00:32:32.360 and that last broadcast
00:32:33.640 was infuriating.
00:32:35.600 Yeah, yeah.
00:32:36.280 At the moment,
00:32:37.100 the Canadian Senate
00:32:38.880 is debating
00:32:39.820 the Emergencies Act,
00:32:41.140 the use of
00:32:41.500 the Emergencies Act.
00:32:43.020 It already passed
00:32:44.360 in the,
00:32:45.780 in the,
00:32:47.540 oh, I'm blanking here.
00:32:48.380 House of Commons.
00:32:48.760 House of Commons
00:32:49.380 in the Canadian legislature there.
00:32:51.140 Now that's moved over
00:32:52.120 to the Senate.
00:32:52.900 They're debating it.
00:32:54.040 Yeah, that last senator
00:32:54.900 who was speaking,
00:32:56.340 infuriating indeed.
00:32:57.680 Yeah.
00:32:57.780 Yeah, they're,
00:32:58.360 so I mean,
00:32:59.080 that's going on
00:32:59.540 for a couple days now,
00:33:00.620 I think,
00:33:01.000 until they actually,
00:33:01.760 like they're slowly
00:33:02.380 putting in their votes
00:33:03.380 and eventually
00:33:03.900 that'll come through.
00:33:04.820 So I think we know
00:33:06.120 what'll happen though.
00:33:07.980 Yeah, NDP will vote
00:33:09.260 for Trudeau
00:33:09.740 because they always do.
00:33:11.100 Yeah.
00:33:12.300 Yeah.
00:33:12.520 Yeah, and so
00:33:13.380 that'll be fun,
00:33:14.500 living under
00:33:15.120 a constant state of emergency
00:33:16.320 here in Canada
00:33:17.420 under dictator.
00:33:18.220 It's indefinite,
00:33:18.860 isn't it?
00:33:19.700 Seems to be.
00:33:20.880 You know,
00:33:21.140 it's,
00:33:21.380 we're just sitting back
00:33:22.640 watching this unfold,
00:33:23.820 but hey-ho.
00:33:26.040 Yeah.
00:33:26.260 But hey,
00:33:26.580 you know,
00:33:26.820 there's a real crisis
00:33:28.060 going on in Ukraine.
00:33:29.120 Have you heard of that one?
00:33:30.240 Oh, let's focus on that one
00:33:31.500 instead.
00:33:31.940 There's a real authority here
00:33:32.880 and here his name is Putin.
00:33:34.280 And, you know,
00:33:34.800 he's clamping down on freedom.
00:33:36.400 It's like,
00:33:36.700 okay, yeah, sure.
00:33:37.940 Yeah, exactly.
00:33:38.740 And I'd love to get your thoughts
00:33:40.120 on all of that
00:33:40.900 that's going on
00:33:41.380 with Russia and Ukraine
00:33:42.120 because there's so much hype
00:33:43.960 about it right now.
00:33:45.020 I had a couple of friends
00:33:45.760 message me last night
00:33:46.680 saying,
00:33:47.040 well, I guess we're screwed.
00:33:48.020 Looks like Russia's
00:33:48.740 starting World War III.
00:33:49.720 And I'm like,
00:33:50.120 are you sure about that?
00:33:52.400 I don't think so.
00:33:53.320 I'd love to break down
00:33:54.540 what's going on
00:33:55.240 with Russia and Ukraine
00:33:56.320 because, yeah,
00:33:56.940 like we were saying,
00:33:57.740 there's so much hype
00:33:58.560 about that right now
00:33:59.240 in the media.
00:34:00.220 And then also talk about
00:34:01.780 the problems
00:34:02.400 that that seems to be
00:34:03.480 distracting from here,
00:34:05.220 at least where I am
00:34:05.980 in North America.
00:34:06.640 For you,
00:34:07.060 because you're in Malaysia,
00:34:07.780 right?
00:34:08.600 I'm in Malaysia, yeah.
00:34:09.660 It's like midnight
00:34:10.240 for you right now?
00:34:10.860 It's midnight.
00:34:11.440 It's 1 a.m.
00:34:12.600 It's literally 1 a.m.
00:34:13.640 here, yeah.
00:34:14.860 Nice.
00:34:15.320 Well, you know what?
00:34:16.400 I actually have no idea
00:34:17.500 what your sleep schedule is like
00:34:18.540 because we're always
00:34:19.040 working together.
00:34:19.700 I don't either.
00:34:20.220 Like every hour and,
00:34:21.820 you know.
00:34:22.220 Yeah.
00:34:22.560 Yeah, it's always a mystery.
00:34:24.140 But, yeah.
00:34:25.020 So, I mean,
00:34:25.440 let's jump right into
00:34:26.620 our first story
00:34:28.020 we have pulling up here,
00:34:29.520 which I believe is on
00:34:30.660 Russia, Ukraine.
00:34:32.300 Biden yesterday
00:34:33.340 announced sanctions.
00:34:34.920 So, you just,
00:34:35.760 I don't think we might
00:34:36.320 even be pulling up
00:34:36.780 one of your stories here
00:34:37.520 that you just wrote on this.
00:34:39.220 But, I mean,
00:34:40.040 for someone who has
00:34:41.440 absolutely no idea
00:34:42.600 what's going on
00:34:43.980 in terms of Russia, Ukraine,
00:34:46.100 like, can you just give us
00:34:47.080 a breakdown as far as,
00:34:48.600 you know,
00:34:49.060 what's the big deal
00:34:50.180 why is there so much hype
00:34:51.180 about this?
00:34:52.280 Like, you know,
00:34:52.780 why is this everywhere?
00:34:54.600 Well, there's a lot of hype
00:34:55.440 about it because
00:34:56.200 Biden and Trudeau
00:34:57.760 and Boris Johnson
00:34:58.980 and pretty much
00:34:59.660 all the world leaders
00:35:00.520 have a lot to deal with
00:35:01.860 at home.
00:35:02.420 And what's better
00:35:03.380 than a foreign crisis
00:35:05.020 to focus on, right?
00:35:06.120 They can say,
00:35:06.940 hey, everybody,
00:35:07.680 look at Putin.
00:35:08.300 Look at what he's doing
00:35:08.960 over there.
00:35:09.780 Don't pay any attention
00:35:11.160 with our, you know,
00:35:11.920 terrible economy
00:35:12.960 and skyrocketing prices.
00:35:14.980 You know,
00:35:15.100 pay no attention to that.
00:35:16.440 Pay attention to what's
00:35:17.120 over there in Ukraine
00:35:18.100 because you've got
00:35:18.600 to protect a democracy.
00:35:19.440 Well, first of all,
00:35:20.660 I wouldn't call Ukraine
00:35:21.740 a democracy.
00:35:22.600 You know,
00:35:22.860 they jail opposition
00:35:24.080 politicians.
00:35:24.620 They shut down
00:35:25.640 news stations
00:35:26.920 that, you know,
00:35:28.260 that are critical
00:35:28.800 to the president.
00:35:29.740 So they're not really
00:35:30.800 democracy.
00:35:31.580 But Russia's interests
00:35:33.000 in Ukraine
00:35:33.580 have been,
00:35:34.700 you know,
00:35:35.080 something that's been
00:35:35.680 building up for
00:35:36.480 several years now,
00:35:37.680 right?
00:35:37.840 Since probably 2014
00:35:38.880 when the two
00:35:40.340 separatist republics,
00:35:41.540 Donetsk and Luhansk,
00:35:42.840 I'm not sure if I'm
00:35:43.360 pronouncing them right,
00:35:44.440 announced that they
00:35:45.500 were going to separate
00:35:46.700 from Ukraine.
00:35:47.300 They're Eastern Ukraine.
00:35:49.120 Most of the people
00:35:49.900 living there are Russians.
00:35:51.160 And, you know,
00:35:51.760 to my knowledge,
00:35:52.300 no one's really spoken
00:35:53.220 to the people down there
00:35:54.220 to see what they think.
00:35:55.520 You know,
00:35:55.660 a lot of people will,
00:35:56.800 and myself included,
00:35:57.800 you know,
00:35:58.120 obviously support
00:35:59.080 the Hong Kong protesters
00:36:01.760 who wanted autonomy
00:36:02.880 from China.
00:36:03.920 You know,
00:36:04.500 and interestingly enough,
00:36:06.080 nobody seems to care
00:36:07.460 what the locals
00:36:08.540 in these areas
00:36:10.080 seem to think
00:36:10.980 or what they want
00:36:11.840 from Ukraine, right?
00:36:12.700 They want to be
00:36:13.320 out of Ukraine.
00:36:14.640 So that Putin
00:36:16.760 is using that
00:36:17.680 as a sort of premise
00:36:18.880 to stage peacekeeping
00:36:20.320 operations.
00:36:21.000 That's what he calls them,
00:36:21.860 right?
00:36:22.560 You know,
00:36:22.800 you can call it
00:36:23.240 what you will,
00:36:23.700 but he basically means
00:36:24.760 that he's putting
00:36:25.420 military forces
00:36:26.080 in Eastern Ukraine.
00:36:27.800 I don't think,
00:36:28.720 personally,
00:36:28.980 I don't think he's
00:36:29.580 going to invade Kiev.
00:36:30.540 I might be wrong.
00:36:31.280 I hope that I'm not wrong
00:36:33.080 because, you know,
00:36:33.880 that would lead
00:36:34.500 to all-out war.
00:36:36.940 And America,
00:36:37.840 you know,
00:36:38.160 like Biden is getting
00:36:39.300 all of these,
00:36:40.360 he's getting advice
00:36:41.160 from his people
00:36:41.680 to put up
00:36:42.900 a no-fly zone
00:36:44.780 in Ukraine,
00:36:45.700 in Eastern Ukraine,
00:36:46.580 which would,
00:36:47.500 you know,
00:36:47.780 mean shooting down
00:36:48.860 Russian Air Force units
00:36:51.100 and, you know,
00:36:52.040 Russian airplanes
00:36:52.720 and blowing up
00:36:54.000 their air defense units.
00:36:55.160 And that would lead
00:36:56.500 to a hot war.
00:36:57.460 We don't want to see that,
00:36:58.880 but a lot of people
00:36:59.460 are gunning for it
00:37:00.120 for, you know,
00:37:00.880 a variety of reasons.
00:37:01.700 Some people just want
00:37:02.280 to have a distraction.
00:37:03.380 Some people are armchair generals
00:37:04.600 who think that Putin
00:37:05.680 is like, you know,
00:37:06.960 the second coming of Hitler.
00:37:08.180 He's not,
00:37:08.800 but that's what they think.
00:37:09.900 And then, of course,
00:37:10.740 there's a lot of money
00:37:11.420 to be made, right?
00:37:12.800 Yeah, yeah.
00:37:13.420 It's like the very
00:37:14.520 basics of this
00:37:15.260 is essentially
00:37:16.080 Putin recognizes
00:37:17.580 the independence
00:37:18.480 of these two separate
00:37:19.880 states within Ukraine
00:37:21.060 and he's sending in
00:37:22.160 his forces
00:37:22.720 to act as peacekeeper
00:37:24.520 as he calls it.
00:37:25.840 I mean,
00:37:26.060 what's your personal take?
00:37:27.700 Because I know
00:37:28.220 some people are saying,
00:37:29.000 you know what,
00:37:29.460 Putin just wants
00:37:30.240 to take over
00:37:30.780 the world right now.
00:37:32.180 Like, what do you think
00:37:33.040 is going on
00:37:34.080 from his side?
00:37:34.720 Like, what do you think
00:37:35.320 his goal is
00:37:35.940 in all of this?
00:37:37.420 Well, I think
00:37:37.940 that he has
00:37:38.540 the mandate
00:37:38.880 of the people.
00:37:39.720 You know,
00:37:39.860 the people living
00:37:40.540 in Russia,
00:37:41.240 they want him
00:37:42.080 to do what he's doing.
00:37:43.240 So, you know,
00:37:43.760 he's enacting his will
00:37:45.040 or the will
00:37:46.120 of the Russians,
00:37:46.680 I should say,
00:37:47.500 which is to unite
00:37:48.940 these two,
00:37:49.800 you know,
00:37:50.780 provinces with Russia
00:37:52.160 because, I mean,
00:37:52.860 if you look back
00:37:53.380 at history,
00:37:53.880 and I don't want
00:37:54.420 to go through
00:37:54.780 a whole historical
00:37:55.640 lesson here,
00:37:56.300 but, you know,
00:37:57.040 after the fall
00:37:57.540 of the Soviet Union
00:37:58.420 in 1991,
00:37:59.900 some of these areas,
00:38:01.780 especially eastern Ukraine,
00:38:03.300 were sort of like
00:38:04.240 given to Ukraine,
00:38:05.680 right?
00:38:06.160 They were made
00:38:07.260 part of Ukraine,
00:38:07.880 even though they
00:38:08.360 never really identified
00:38:09.160 as Ukrainian,
00:38:09.860 they were more Russian
00:38:10.640 than Ukrainian.
00:38:11.880 And so, you know,
00:38:12.620 as a result of that,
00:38:13.660 you know,
00:38:13.860 over the past decade
00:38:15.020 or so,
00:38:15.660 they've been trying
00:38:16.760 to break away
00:38:17.460 from that.
00:38:18.340 And that's,
00:38:19.380 I think that's
00:38:20.580 what they want.
00:38:21.480 They only want
00:38:22.140 those two territories.
00:38:23.580 But obviously,
00:38:24.380 you know,
00:38:24.580 there's a lot
00:38:25.080 of money involved
00:38:26.120 and there's a lot
00:38:26.720 of, you know,
00:38:27.760 local dealings
00:38:29.660 of, you know,
00:38:30.200 it's complicated,
00:38:32.760 right?
00:38:32.900 It's very complicated.
00:38:34.240 Yeah, but people
00:38:34.860 make it seem like
00:38:35.520 it's easy,
00:38:36.060 like it's just,
00:38:36.840 oh, you know,
00:38:37.360 like he's a dictator
00:38:38.080 who wants to take
00:38:38.660 over the world.
00:38:39.160 I mean, well,
00:38:39.680 that's not true.
00:38:40.380 He could have invaded
00:38:41.060 years ago
00:38:42.200 if he wanted to.
00:38:42.980 Why didn't he do that?
00:38:44.040 You know,
00:38:44.200 he could have done
00:38:44.620 that under Obama.
00:38:45.480 He didn't do that.
00:38:46.060 He only took Crimea,
00:38:47.120 which, by the way,
00:38:47.780 had a referendum
00:38:48.380 that they all voted
00:38:49.320 to join Russia.
00:38:50.700 But even since then,
00:38:52.220 Ukraine does not
00:38:53.020 recognize the sovereignty
00:38:53.940 of Crimea.
00:38:54.940 It doesn't think that
00:38:55.860 they had any right
00:38:57.240 to secede.
00:38:58.480 So, you know,
00:38:59.340 it's a very complicated
00:39:00.240 issue, obviously.
00:39:01.120 And depending on who
00:39:01.620 you talk to,
00:39:02.440 they're going to say
00:39:02.960 that, well,
00:39:03.360 the people living there
00:39:04.160 are obviously Ukrainian
00:39:05.540 and they want to belong
00:39:06.260 to Ukraine.
00:39:06.840 When, you know,
00:39:07.480 you point out
00:39:07.900 the referendum,
00:39:08.620 they'll say that
00:39:09.180 it's fake, right?
00:39:11.020 That Putin staged
00:39:12.220 the whole thing.
00:39:13.500 But me personally,
00:39:14.640 I think that, you know,
00:39:15.920 the people living there
00:39:16.680 speak Russian.
00:39:17.840 They consider themselves
00:39:18.820 Russian.
00:39:19.400 I mean, they might as well
00:39:19.980 just be Russian, you know?
00:39:21.400 Yeah.
00:39:21.740 Well, my question is,
00:39:22.860 like, do you see this
00:39:23.840 spilling over to anything
00:39:25.360 further?
00:39:25.800 Because I know a lot
00:39:26.220 of people are thinking,
00:39:26.900 you know what,
00:39:27.240 like this is big,
00:39:29.020 this could blow up
00:39:29.720 into something huge
00:39:30.720 and, like,
00:39:31.600 this is just the first step.
00:39:33.000 This is, you know,
00:39:34.160 Hitler invading Austria
00:39:35.880 right now.
00:39:36.520 Putin's coming
00:39:36.980 for the rest of us.
00:39:37.820 Do you think that is
00:39:39.100 something in the books
00:39:40.060 right now where Putin
00:39:40.960 is going to try
00:39:41.600 and push further?
00:39:42.720 No.
00:39:43.200 Okay.
00:39:43.520 I don't think so, no.
00:39:44.640 Yeah.
00:39:45.320 Because I just want to,
00:39:46.380 you know,
00:39:46.780 get that take there
00:39:47.860 because I do know
00:39:48.860 people who have been
00:39:49.460 saying, yeah,
00:39:49.980 you know what,
00:39:50.500 this is just the first step.
00:39:51.600 Something bigger is coming.
00:39:53.100 But it seems to me
00:39:53.880 like a lot of this...
00:39:54.600 What army?
00:39:55.360 Yeah, exactly.
00:39:56.500 Exactly.
00:39:56.880 And America is outclassed,
00:39:58.980 outclasses the Russian army
00:40:00.280 by far.
00:40:00.840 I mean, yeah,
00:40:01.600 the Russian army is powerful.
00:40:03.480 It is, you know,
00:40:04.140 it is designed to take
00:40:05.200 on the American army,
00:40:06.160 but make no mistake,
00:40:07.400 America is still number one
00:40:08.460 when it comes to military power.
00:40:09.680 There is just no competition here.
00:40:11.380 Mm-hmm.
00:40:12.140 Yeah.
00:40:12.640 And I mean, like,
00:40:13.520 because we were talking
00:40:14.320 about how there's so much
00:40:15.000 hype about this.
00:40:16.160 Again, it does seem like
00:40:17.260 such a distraction right now
00:40:18.900 with Biden making
00:40:20.220 such a show of this
00:40:21.120 because he himself
00:40:22.040 is polling,
00:40:22.740 is dropping so low.
00:40:23.680 He has a crisis on his hands
00:40:25.480 as far as what's going on
00:40:26.940 in the States right now.
00:40:28.240 We have, you know,
00:40:29.180 the U.S. trucker convoy
00:40:30.520 coming for Washington right now.
00:40:32.440 Seems like there's
00:40:33.040 a whole distraction
00:40:33.960 to put us that way.
00:40:34.680 So actually,
00:40:35.220 I'd love to talk about
00:40:35.900 that right now
00:40:36.480 because that is another
00:40:37.320 kind of big thing
00:40:38.040 in our headline.
00:40:39.240 There's this,
00:40:39.700 because we have the convoy,
00:40:41.060 the Canadian convoy
00:40:42.060 that went to Ottawa.
00:40:43.280 We had a massive show of force
00:40:44.900 from Canadian police
00:40:46.240 from all sorts
00:40:46.900 of different departments
00:40:47.760 in the capital
00:40:48.740 this past weekend
00:40:49.640 to basically take
00:40:51.060 all the trucks out of there,
00:40:52.020 shut this down,
00:40:52.700 remove all the protesters
00:40:53.620 and there's this
00:40:54.660 full-on police state
00:40:56.000 going on in Canada's capital.
00:40:57.580 So that was the deal
00:40:58.220 with the Canadian convoy
00:40:59.300 essentially over
00:41:00.440 and now they're continuing
00:41:01.620 debates and votes
00:41:02.580 on the emergency powers.
00:41:04.360 But for the States now,
00:41:06.040 American truckers
00:41:07.040 are coming in
00:41:07.600 with their own convoy.
00:41:09.140 And I think
00:41:09.780 we have a clip here
00:41:11.420 that good old producer
00:41:12.540 AD was telling me about
00:41:14.160 from the leader
00:41:16.400 or the organizer
00:41:17.380 of this convoy.
00:41:19.240 I think we wanted
00:41:19.920 to show that.
00:41:21.080 We get to roll with that.
00:41:21.880 That looks cool.
00:41:25.040 Yeah.
00:41:25.540 I haven't seen this.
00:41:26.520 So apparently
00:41:26.840 there's something here
00:41:27.760 I need to be reacting to.
00:41:29.040 So I'm looking forward to this.
00:41:31.560 My name is Kyle Sepchik
00:41:32.840 of the Freedom Convoy USA 2022
00:41:34.700 and our routes meet here
00:41:36.840 in D.C. on March 1st
00:41:38.320 in time for your
00:41:38.880 State of the Union address.
00:41:40.340 We are very organized
00:41:41.520 and our routes are public.
00:41:43.600 I even pulled a permit
00:41:44.500 from the National Mall
00:41:45.360 to be respectful.
00:41:46.740 I just want to be
00:41:47.240 as transparent as possible
00:41:48.360 from the start
00:41:49.000 so there's no confusion.
00:41:49.960 We are coming peacefully
00:41:51.360 and we're going to do this
00:41:52.300 lawfully and constitutionally.
00:41:54.480 I want the rest of the world
00:41:55.440 to know our plans
00:41:56.240 so that there's no twisting
00:41:57.580 and lying about
00:41:58.240 who and what we are.
00:41:59.840 I'm coming to you
00:42:00.440 as a father,
00:42:01.540 a small business owner
00:42:02.560 who's unaffiliated
00:42:03.840 to any parties.
00:42:05.600 We just want
00:42:06.400 government overreach
00:42:07.200 to end.
00:42:08.500 On behalf of
00:42:09.540 Freedom Convoy USA 2022,
00:42:12.080 we are asking you
00:42:13.300 to end the state
00:42:14.660 of emergency,
00:42:15.920 end the mandates
00:42:16.840 once and for all.
00:42:17.840 Sir, the world
00:42:19.680 is watching us
00:42:20.560 because they know
00:42:21.680 that if what's happening
00:42:22.440 in Canada
00:42:22.920 happens to us here
00:42:24.020 in the land of the free,
00:42:24.940 then freedom
00:42:25.480 as we know it
00:42:26.460 is gone.
00:42:27.600 So we are leaving
00:42:28.400 the choice to you.
00:42:29.920 The decision
00:42:30.500 is in your hands.
00:42:32.120 This whole convoy,
00:42:33.460 this whole assembly
00:42:34.080 on the National Mall,
00:42:34.940 it doesn't even have to happen
00:42:36.100 if you just end things now
00:42:37.640 and we can get on
00:42:38.740 with our lives.
00:42:40.920 To you other convoys
00:42:42.220 that plan on meeting us here,
00:42:43.660 we look forward
00:42:44.100 to seeing you
00:42:44.820 and joining with you.
00:42:46.180 We're going to do this right.
00:42:47.220 We're going to do this honorably.
00:42:49.720 Mr. President,
00:42:50.960 we have no other motives
00:42:52.080 in this mission.
00:42:53.380 You see,
00:42:54.040 the government,
00:42:55.560 our elected officials
00:42:56.540 of both parties
00:42:57.820 have failed us tremendously
00:42:58.800 these last two years
00:42:59.760 and now it's time for us,
00:43:01.720 we, the people,
00:43:03.560 to fix this,
00:43:04.900 to end this.
00:43:06.340 We're ready to get back
00:43:07.180 to our lives,
00:43:08.380 the ones promised
00:43:09.420 and guaranteed
00:43:10.740 in the United States Constitution,
00:43:12.960 Bill of Rights,
00:43:13.900 and the contract
00:43:14.800 that you signed
00:43:15.940 and swore an oath to
00:43:17.220 under the one true God.
00:43:19.500 This is simple.
00:43:20.960 End this.
00:43:25.620 Nice.
00:43:26.200 I was,
00:43:26.960 to be honest,
00:43:27.260 I was expecting something
00:43:28.320 a little more fiery
00:43:29.620 just because of the way
00:43:30.780 producer Ad explained that to me.
00:43:33.100 I was expecting
00:43:33.600 to be shocked at something,
00:43:34.600 but hey,
00:43:35.400 that all sounded
00:43:35.940 pretty good to me.
00:43:37.740 Yeah,
00:43:38.040 it's very peaceful.
00:43:39.080 It's straightforward.
00:43:40.460 He's saying,
00:43:41.380 we're coming in peace.
00:43:42.740 This is all we're about.
00:43:44.380 You know,
00:43:44.500 we're not anything
00:43:45.340 that the media
00:43:46.940 might portray as us.
00:43:48.180 That's all that needs
00:43:49.200 to be said.
00:43:49.860 Yeah.
00:43:50.040 Yeah,
00:43:50.440 that was straightforward.
00:43:51.740 So,
00:43:51.940 I mean,
00:43:52.100 I'm looking forward
00:43:52.780 to see how this goes.
00:43:53.640 I saw something about
00:43:54.640 how the Pentagon
00:43:55.800 had approved
00:43:56.240 the National Guard
00:43:56.980 to be called into
00:43:57.780 the Capitol for this.
00:43:58.900 So,
00:43:59.460 seems like they're already
00:44:00.500 trying to play this off
00:44:01.760 as another January 6th.
00:44:03.580 Oh,
00:44:03.800 yeah,
00:44:04.000 they are.
00:44:04.400 And they're already
00:44:04.780 building another fence
00:44:06.240 around the Capitol building
00:44:07.940 because,
00:44:08.520 of course,
00:44:09.000 you know,
00:44:09.260 that's great.
00:44:09.580 What government
00:44:10.140 is not afraid
00:44:10.760 of its people?
00:44:11.900 Yeah.
00:44:12.740 Yeah.
00:44:13.200 Oh,
00:44:13.500 boy.
00:44:14.160 So,
00:44:14.420 that'll be interesting.
00:44:15.180 And so,
00:44:15.520 I'm told we will have
00:44:17.060 a team on the ground
00:44:18.060 from Rebel News
00:44:18.800 who will be covering
00:44:19.820 the U.S. convoy itself.
00:44:21.960 So,
00:44:22.180 I'm looking forward
00:44:22.900 to seeing that coverage
00:44:24.000 because,
00:44:25.000 I mean,
00:44:25.160 honestly,
00:44:25.480 all I know about it
00:44:26.540 is that it's happening.
00:44:27.540 That's all I've really
00:44:28.220 been told.
00:44:28.700 I haven't seen too much
00:44:29.580 other than,
00:44:30.080 hey,
00:44:30.300 it's happening.
00:44:31.340 They're driving
00:44:31.780 to the Capitol.
00:44:32.600 Similar things
00:44:33.260 what we've been doing
00:44:33.800 here in Canada.
00:44:34.960 But,
00:44:35.300 it'll be interesting
00:44:35.920 to see,
00:44:37.100 A,
00:44:37.340 how,
00:44:37.820 you know,
00:44:38.100 Washington reacts
00:44:38.980 to me like you're saying
00:44:39.520 they've already
00:44:39.840 put up the fence
00:44:40.520 and they're planning
00:44:40.940 to call on the National Guard.
00:44:42.560 It'll be interesting
00:44:42.940 to see how that all
00:44:43.700 goes down
00:44:44.240 and whether or not,
00:44:46.400 you know,
00:44:46.760 anything actually
00:44:47.400 comes from it.
00:44:48.640 But,
00:44:48.820 yeah.
00:44:49.140 I hope,
00:44:49.740 I hope it actually happens
00:44:51.340 because,
00:44:51.840 you know,
00:44:51.980 they were talking
00:44:52.460 about going down
00:44:53.200 to the Super Bowl,
00:44:54.960 right,
00:44:55.220 in Los Angeles.
00:44:56.060 Obviously,
00:44:56.460 that never happened.
00:44:57.380 That never happened.
00:44:58.180 But,
00:44:58.740 I think they seem
00:44:59.640 more serious now.
00:45:00.500 I mean,
00:45:00.660 they're putting out
00:45:01.000 videos,
00:45:01.440 statements in the press.
00:45:02.980 I wrote about
00:45:03.800 a story earlier
00:45:04.520 about a guy
00:45:05.560 from Pennsylvania.
00:45:06.220 He owns a trucking
00:45:07.220 company there
00:45:07.780 and they're all
00:45:08.360 going down.
00:45:09.080 Yeah.
00:45:09.320 So,
00:45:09.860 it looks like
00:45:10.180 a lot of trucking
00:45:10.840 companies are going
00:45:11.420 down.
00:45:11.700 This is like,
00:45:12.600 this is not just
00:45:13.120 one or two people,
00:45:14.040 you know,
00:45:14.220 this is not like
00:45:15.000 one or two drivers
00:45:15.860 or even a thousand
00:45:17.560 drivers.
00:45:17.880 This is more like
00:45:18.460 a lot of small
00:45:19.220 companies are heading
00:45:20.020 down there,
00:45:20.940 representing themselves.
00:45:22.280 Yeah.
00:45:22.780 This is a huge deal.
00:45:23.800 So,
00:45:23.980 okay.
00:45:24.120 So,
00:45:24.360 I saw this.
00:45:24.960 I literally just
00:45:25.660 glanced at this
00:45:26.480 before coming in here.
00:45:27.620 I saw you wrote a story.
00:45:28.860 I believe it was
00:45:29.600 about the convoy
00:45:30.280 and there was
00:45:30.940 something about
00:45:31.360 someone making
00:45:32.080 a statement
00:45:32.500 about how we're
00:45:33.120 going to be
00:45:33.480 cutting things off
00:45:34.360 from you,
00:45:34.740 like a BOA
00:45:35.440 restrictor
00:45:36.020 around your neck.
00:45:37.120 Do you mind
00:45:37.380 telling me what
00:45:37.780 that was about?
00:45:38.340 Because I actually
00:45:38.960 have no idea.
00:45:39.640 I just saw that
00:45:40.240 caught my eye.
00:45:40.720 I'm like,
00:45:40.980 ooh,
00:45:41.220 what's this?
00:45:42.080 Yeah.
00:45:42.600 Okay.
00:45:42.960 So,
00:45:43.440 this was part
00:45:45.380 of a story
00:45:46.040 about one of
00:45:47.160 the Freedom Convoy
00:45:47.900 guys.
00:45:48.180 I don't know
00:45:48.500 what you call
00:45:48.900 these guys,
00:45:49.600 convoy truckers,
00:45:50.440 right?
00:45:50.600 So,
00:45:51.240 he said that,
00:45:52.260 you know,
00:45:52.520 we're not going
00:45:53.100 to block
00:45:53.540 emergency traffic.
00:45:54.600 We're not going
00:45:55.180 to,
00:45:55.700 you know,
00:45:56.360 like,
00:45:57.120 stop things
00:45:58.920 from,
00:45:59.400 you know,
00:46:00.260 you know,
00:46:01.480 working in DC.
00:46:02.940 Instead,
00:46:03.340 we will cut you
00:46:04.220 off like a
00:46:04.700 BOA constrictor.
00:46:06.720 That was his
00:46:07.480 threat,
00:46:07.840 yeah.
00:46:08.260 But it'll be
00:46:08.580 peaceful,
00:46:08.980 though.
00:46:09.140 It'll be a
00:46:09.420 peaceful cutoff.
00:46:09.800 Yeah,
00:46:09.820 like,
00:46:09.980 okay,
00:46:10.200 so,
00:46:10.540 but what does
00:46:10.960 he mean by
00:46:11.400 that we're
00:46:11.600 going to cut
00:46:12.000 you off?
00:46:12.460 Like,
00:46:12.540 what exactly
00:46:13.740 is he planning
00:46:14.320 to cut off,
00:46:15.240 you know?
00:46:16.080 My guess is
00:46:17.100 shipments,
00:46:17.800 you know,
00:46:18.160 of local
00:46:18.560 deliveries.
00:46:19.600 Yeah.
00:46:20.200 They deserve it.
00:46:21.100 I mean,
00:46:21.720 screw that place.
00:46:23.520 So,
00:46:23.960 he's essentially
00:46:24.760 just,
00:46:25.220 oh,
00:46:25.340 yeah,
00:46:25.460 we're going
00:46:25.700 to blockade
00:46:26.180 the capital
00:46:26.720 and stop
00:46:27.640 stuff from
00:46:28.100 coming through.
00:46:28.580 Okay,
00:46:28.960 I see what
00:46:29.380 you say.
00:46:29.900 Except for
00:46:30.380 emergency
00:46:30.700 vehicles.
00:46:31.540 Yeah,
00:46:31.840 okay,
00:46:32.460 yeah,
00:46:32.820 yeah.
00:46:33.000 And was he
00:46:33.560 like an
00:46:33.860 actual
00:46:34.080 organizer?
00:46:35.180 Okay,
00:46:35.520 yeah.
00:46:35.880 Yeah,
00:46:36.320 he is,
00:46:36.640 yeah,
00:46:36.820 yeah.
00:46:37.040 And also
00:46:37.560 that story
00:46:38.100 is quite
00:46:38.700 interesting
00:46:39.100 because,
00:46:40.100 and I
00:46:40.440 even understand
00:46:41.200 where the
00:46:41.560 anger is
00:46:41.980 coming from,
00:46:42.740 you know,
00:46:42.920 when you
00:46:43.120 truck drivers
00:46:43.540 talk about
00:46:43.940 this stuff
00:46:44.360 because one
00:46:45.800 of,
00:46:46.420 what do you
00:46:47.460 call him,
00:46:47.860 a Democrat,
00:46:48.660 right?
00:46:48.920 He said
00:46:49.980 that all
00:46:50.740 of these
00:46:51.100 trucks need
00:46:51.640 to be seized
00:46:52.600 and they
00:46:52.960 need to be
00:46:53.260 impounded
00:46:53.680 and they
00:46:54.100 need to be
00:46:54.580 sold and
00:46:55.760 given to
00:46:56.780 like the
00:46:57.240 local
00:46:57.480 businesses
00:46:57.960 in D.C.
00:46:58.980 Like,
00:46:59.480 that's insane.
00:47:00.460 For what?
00:47:01.480 You know?
00:47:02.880 He wants to
00:47:03.320 pull a
00:47:03.600 Trudeau.
00:47:04.360 Yeah.
00:47:04.800 Yeah,
00:47:04.960 exactly.
00:47:05.300 That's what,
00:47:05.580 yeah,
00:47:05.740 because in
00:47:06.380 Canada,
00:47:06.760 like we had
00:47:07.280 all those
00:47:07.620 trucks that
00:47:08.100 were towed
00:47:08.500 away,
00:47:09.020 forcibly
00:47:09.360 towed away,
00:47:10.100 right?
00:47:10.520 Because we
00:47:11.180 had,
00:47:11.660 we had the
00:47:12.960 government
00:47:13.320 pulling a
00:47:13.840 full fascist
00:47:14.540 move and
00:47:15.740 compelling,
00:47:16.860 as they said,
00:47:18.040 private tow truck
00:47:18.780 drivers to do
00:47:20.180 the government's
00:47:20.680 dirty work and
00:47:21.340 take them away.
00:47:22.140 Under threat of
00:47:22.440 force,
00:47:24.100 closing their
00:47:24.460 businesses,
00:47:25.080 jail and
00:47:26.000 fines,
00:47:26.740 all,
00:47:27.060 you know,
00:47:27.560 under the
00:47:27.940 Emergencies Act,
00:47:29.240 threatening them
00:47:30.040 and essentially
00:47:31.420 forcing them to
00:47:32.320 tow the trucks
00:47:32.960 away.
00:47:33.240 And all the
00:47:33.560 trucks have
00:47:34.000 been impounded.
00:47:35.240 And then the
00:47:35.940 mayor of Ottawa
00:47:36.660 goes on the
00:47:37.540 CBC and he's
00:47:38.940 saying,
00:47:39.280 yeah,
00:47:39.420 and actually
00:47:39.920 because this
00:47:40.900 entire operation
00:47:41.820 has been such a
00:47:42.560 burden on the
00:47:43.200 taxpayers,
00:47:43.840 and I really
00:47:44.300 care about the
00:47:44.920 taxpayers,
00:47:45.660 we're just going
00:47:46.220 to auction off
00:47:46.960 all of these
00:47:47.360 trucks and sell
00:47:47.980 them and recoup
00:47:48.560 the cost,
00:47:49.100 you know,
00:47:49.380 for the people.
00:47:51.060 So I thought
00:47:51.840 that was a bold
00:47:52.480 move,
00:47:52.820 yeah.
00:47:54.580 Honestly,
00:47:55.120 I wish,
00:47:55.680 you know,
00:47:55.940 and I'm not
00:47:56.580 speaking as a
00:47:57.060 journalist here,
00:47:57.740 more as for
00:47:58.540 myself.
00:47:59.280 Yeah.
00:47:59.700 I wish Canadian
00:48:00.840 truckers all over
00:48:01.920 Canada would simply
00:48:02.860 just go on a
00:48:03.360 strike,
00:48:03.920 you know,
00:48:04.100 just choose to
00:48:04.680 not work.
00:48:05.440 Yeah.
00:48:05.940 I mean,
00:48:06.380 essentially,
00:48:06.940 yeah,
00:48:07.700 and that's what
00:48:08.220 Ezra has been
00:48:08.700 calling this whole
00:48:09.780 movement is just
00:48:10.540 like,
00:48:10.780 you know,
00:48:11.120 a general strike
00:48:11.940 is kind of a one
00:48:12.720 way to look at it.
00:48:13.500 I think it,
00:48:14.240 you know,
00:48:14.400 it's pretty key in
00:48:15.060 terms of,
00:48:15.440 you know what,
00:48:15.740 we've got swaths
00:48:16.680 of people because
00:48:17.200 it was,
00:48:17.760 it started with just
00:48:18.500 with the truckers,
00:48:19.240 right?
00:48:19.460 But then we had
00:48:20.420 farmers coming in
00:48:21.360 the mix,
00:48:21.780 we had others come
00:48:22.580 in and they're
00:48:22.980 like,
00:48:23.180 you know what,
00:48:24.080 we're just,
00:48:25.040 A,
00:48:25.280 we're going on a
00:48:26.300 literal strike as far
00:48:27.200 from our work,
00:48:28.000 but that's also partly
00:48:28.700 because they were
00:48:29.240 forced to stop working
00:48:30.760 because of government
00:48:31.600 mandates.
00:48:31.620 Right,
00:48:31.840 it couldn't work.
00:48:32.700 So you have all
00:48:33.660 these people who've
00:48:34.220 been essentially
00:48:34.780 backed into a
00:48:35.420 corner saying,
00:48:36.520 yeah,
00:48:36.640 I can't really work
00:48:37.560 now because you've
00:48:38.480 told me I can't
00:48:39.240 work because of
00:48:39.880 these overreaching
00:48:40.420 mandates.
00:48:41.440 And then,
00:48:42.280 you know,
00:48:42.920 I've been living for
00:48:44.360 two years now under
00:48:45.420 all these super heavy
00:48:46.320 handed restrictions
00:48:47.020 that I've dealt with
00:48:47.940 because I need to eat,
00:48:49.040 I need to feed my
00:48:49.760 family.
00:48:50.240 Now I literally
00:48:51.120 cannot work,
00:48:52.060 so it's time for
00:48:53.040 action.
00:48:53.920 And I'm also super
00:48:55.320 impressed by every
00:48:56.220 single person who is
00:48:57.140 at this point where
00:48:58.020 they've been backed
00:48:58.580 into a corner and
00:48:59.680 they're desperate and
00:49:00.480 their only recourse
00:49:01.600 they see is this
00:49:02.480 peaceful protest.
00:49:03.660 The fact that none
00:49:04.640 of them snapped,
00:49:05.440 none of them lost it,
00:49:06.360 none of them got
00:49:06.900 violent,
00:49:07.380 which I find
00:49:07.920 incredibly impressive.
00:49:09.660 There were some
00:49:10.060 hoaxes though.
00:49:11.600 Sorry?
00:49:12.740 Some hoaxes,
00:49:13.500 you know,
00:49:13.720 like remember that one
00:49:14.680 guy sitting at a
00:49:15.700 house on fire or
00:49:16.520 whatever,
00:49:16.920 you know,
00:49:17.100 that never happened.
00:49:17.740 Yeah,
00:49:18.060 that was a hoax.
00:49:18.620 We covered that
00:49:19.360 about them like,
00:49:20.080 you know,
00:49:20.220 starting a fire in an
00:49:21.080 apartment building that
00:49:22.420 was not related to the
00:49:23.600 truckers at all.
00:49:24.360 And yeah,
00:49:24.580 a bunch of other
00:49:25.100 hoaxes,
00:49:25.600 the Nazi flag waving
00:49:26.780 and all of that,
00:49:27.680 where the guy with the
00:49:28.520 Confederate flag,
00:49:29.340 you just got chased out
00:49:30.200 of the crowd.
00:49:30.900 He's the only one bold
00:49:32.120 enough to try and
00:49:33.020 actually stand in the
00:49:34.260 crowd of actual
00:49:34.900 protesters and he got
00:49:35.880 chased out pretty quick.
00:49:37.580 But yeah,
00:49:38.380 yeah.
00:49:38.840 And that's all the
00:49:39.840 sort of rhetoric we're
00:49:40.680 seeing in the debates
00:49:41.480 right now too,
00:49:42.440 right?
00:49:42.700 From within the Senate
00:49:43.660 and in the House of
00:49:44.360 Commons previously.
00:49:45.260 And in the media.
00:49:47.140 Yeah,
00:49:47.400 and in the media.
00:49:48.360 Yeah,
00:49:48.480 all these Nazi flag
00:49:49.320 readers.
00:49:49.500 American media and the
00:49:52.260 Canadian media.
00:49:53.620 I mean,
00:49:54.160 the Washington Post
00:49:55.140 used that list of
00:49:56.420 people whose names
00:49:57.480 were leaked or
00:49:58.580 stolen from the
00:50:00.220 docs,
00:50:01.140 right?
00:50:01.340 And then started
00:50:02.540 calling them up and
00:50:03.480 made a whole list of
00:50:04.700 American donors saying
00:50:05.740 that,
00:50:06.100 oh,
00:50:06.180 this American donor
00:50:06.960 gave like $20,000.
00:50:08.560 You know,
00:50:08.740 it's like,
00:50:09.260 why are you going
00:50:10.080 after people for this?
00:50:11.000 People have a right
00:50:11.940 to donate.
00:50:12.760 Yeah,
00:50:12.880 exactly.
00:50:13.280 And that's the other
00:50:13.780 hardcore line they're
00:50:14.620 trying to push too,
00:50:15.360 right?
00:50:15.560 Of all this is,
00:50:16.500 this is all an
00:50:17.160 American influenced
00:50:18.300 movement.
00:50:18.920 You call this Canadian.
00:50:20.020 No,
00:50:20.280 this is,
00:50:20.660 you know,
00:50:21.100 Trump money coming
00:50:22.080 through here or
00:50:22.880 making this happen.
00:50:24.260 Jagmeet Singh was
00:50:25.080 running with that
00:50:25.740 for the NDP.
00:50:27.320 Oh,
00:50:27.620 man.
00:50:27.940 It was nonsense.
00:50:28.680 I mean,
00:50:28.860 even the like actual
00:50:30.800 analysis done by
00:50:32.000 Canadian journalists
00:50:32.900 shows that the
00:50:34.080 majority of the bulk
00:50:35.340 of money came from
00:50:36.160 Canadian citizens
00:50:36.980 wasn't from
00:50:37.920 Americans.
00:50:39.120 Yeah,
00:50:39.340 exactly.
00:50:39.980 It is a genuine
00:50:41.340 grassroots Canadian
00:50:42.300 movement that
00:50:43.100 they're so,
00:50:44.040 so desperately trying
00:50:45.260 to paint as
00:50:46.060 foreign interference,
00:50:47.420 insurrection.
00:50:48.300 It must be Putin,
00:50:49.220 you know,
00:50:49.580 he's so jealous of
00:50:50.560 Trudeau.
00:50:50.940 It must be Putin,
00:50:51.780 this Russian funded.
00:50:54.120 And so,
00:50:55.600 I'm just thinking
00:50:56.560 here,
00:50:57.540 in Canada,
00:50:59.920 we have this going
00:51:00.760 on,
00:51:01.020 we have this going
00:51:01.640 on in the States.
00:51:03.540 And another story
00:51:04.720 that we were
00:51:05.160 referencing earlier
00:51:06.020 that is just
00:51:06.640 coming to mind
00:51:07.160 now,
00:51:08.360 because during this
00:51:09.400 whole thing,
00:51:09.860 right,
00:51:10.060 like at Rebel News,
00:51:10.660 we've never gotten
00:51:11.560 so much attention
00:51:12.600 than we have right
00:51:13.800 now during our
00:51:14.320 coverage of this,
00:51:14.880 because literally
00:51:15.300 the entire world
00:51:16.080 has been watching
00:51:16.620 this.
00:51:16.880 This is one of the
00:51:17.420 biggest stories
00:51:18.100 in the world
00:51:19.500 all I've been on
00:51:20.800 the Freedom
00:51:21.700 Convoy in Canada.
00:51:22.620 And the movement
00:51:24.420 that has spilled
00:51:24.980 over beyond our
00:51:25.920 borders,
00:51:26.400 you know,
00:51:26.540 now in the States
00:51:27.140 and elsewhere.
00:51:28.580 And since we're
00:51:29.060 getting so much
00:51:29.760 attention,
00:51:30.300 yeah,
00:51:30.480 Australia,
00:51:31.400 especially from
00:51:32.340 American media,
00:51:33.460 I find it hilarious.
00:51:34.900 There was a story
00:51:35.500 that Sheila wrote
00:51:36.220 this up yesterday
00:51:37.000 that,
00:51:38.860 let me see here,
00:51:40.540 that,
00:51:40.800 yeah,
00:51:40.940 so the Canadian
00:51:41.620 federal government
00:51:42.540 was paying
00:51:44.340 a consulting firm
00:51:45.480 in the United States
00:51:46.540 to do PR work
00:51:47.900 for Canada
00:51:48.460 in the States
00:51:49.260 to try and spread
00:51:50.160 the good message
00:51:50.880 of Canadian greatness
00:51:51.980 among the U.S.
00:51:53.760 while it was having
00:51:54.960 such negative PR
00:51:56.520 from all of the
00:51:57.520 convoy and the
00:51:58.060 treatment of the
00:51:58.500 protesters.
00:51:59.120 I think this,
00:51:59.660 and it coincided
00:52:00.540 right with bringing
00:52:01.860 in the Emergencies Act
00:52:03.020 and the crackdown
00:52:03.720 on protesters.
00:52:04.860 I think this is
00:52:05.800 great here.
00:52:06.340 Canadian embassy
00:52:07.220 in U.S.
00:52:08.140 paying consultants
00:52:09.020 to woo thought leaders
00:52:10.340 after invoking
00:52:11.180 Emergencies Act.
00:52:12.720 I mean,
00:52:13.120 I don't know if you
00:52:13.760 saw this,
00:52:14.260 but I think this is
00:52:15.060 I did not see that.
00:52:15.900 This is hilarious.
00:52:18.080 Yeah.
00:52:18.660 So,
00:52:18.940 so it seems
00:52:20.260 that he is
00:52:21.040 genuinely concerned
00:52:22.460 what the world
00:52:23.080 thinks of him,
00:52:23.940 right?
00:52:24.100 This is not
00:52:24.780 just a local issue.
00:52:26.380 I mean,
00:52:26.580 I've been in arguments
00:52:27.520 with people,
00:52:28.080 Canadians even,
00:52:28.800 who were like,
00:52:29.160 ah,
00:52:29.340 it doesn't matter
00:52:29.920 what the world
00:52:30.380 thinks of Trudeau.
00:52:31.480 He doesn't care.
00:52:32.260 I mean,
00:52:32.380 he's a tyrant.
00:52:32.980 He doesn't care.
00:52:34.020 And I'm like,
00:52:34.800 of course he cares.
00:52:35.840 Yeah.
00:52:36.240 He's only able
00:52:36.940 to do this
00:52:37.400 because he has
00:52:38.380 the support
00:52:38.840 of the international
00:52:39.840 community.
00:52:40.540 And,
00:52:41.020 you know,
00:52:41.460 he wants to
00:52:42.280 retain that support,
00:52:43.840 right?
00:52:43.980 He wants to be seen
00:52:44.640 as a good guy here.
00:52:45.700 Yeah,
00:52:45.820 no,
00:52:46.000 I think you're
00:52:46.540 absolutely right about that.
00:52:47.860 Of course,
00:52:48.680 Justin Trudeau cares.
00:52:49.840 Like,
00:52:49.940 I mean,
00:52:50.260 first of all,
00:52:50.920 just as a personal thing,
00:52:52.980 of course,
00:52:54.340 he's,
00:52:54.880 oh man.
00:52:56.500 I mean,
00:52:56.720 he's just a super vain
00:52:58.560 little petty tyrant,
00:53:00.380 of course.
00:53:00.960 He's a narcissist.
00:53:01.920 Yeah,
00:53:02.220 a complete narcissist.
00:53:03.660 But the fact that,
00:53:04.860 like,
00:53:05.040 Canada all the time
00:53:06.440 loves the image
00:53:07.760 that it's just this,
00:53:08.680 you know,
00:53:09.020 middle power,
00:53:10.100 do-gooder,
00:53:11.060 we're the world's,
00:53:11.780 you know,
00:53:12.180 peace-loving peacekeepers,
00:53:13.900 even though Canadian
00:53:14.440 peacekeeping,
00:53:14.860 yeah,
00:53:16.060 even though Canadian
00:53:17.000 peacekeeping efforts
00:53:17.920 have steadily declined
00:53:19.160 over the past decades
00:53:20.100 and we're at an all-time
00:53:21.160 low of actual
00:53:22.000 doing real peacekeeping.
00:53:23.080 But we love that image
00:53:23.940 of all the great work
00:53:25.040 we do with the UN
00:53:25.720 peacekeeping
00:53:26.380 and all of that.
00:53:27.760 And Canada
00:53:28.540 never really does anything
00:53:30.960 unless we think
00:53:32.220 it's going to help us
00:53:32.900 look really good
00:53:33.660 on the international stage,
00:53:34.840 you know,
00:53:35.080 as far as our foreign policy goes.
00:53:36.960 And so,
00:53:37.240 absolutely,
00:53:38.080 I think Trudeau
00:53:38.880 really cares.
00:53:39.900 And that's something
00:53:40.380 I found super heartening
00:53:41.320 about this
00:53:41.680 is all of the attention
00:53:42.920 that has been on this.
00:53:43.980 It's like the mask
00:53:44.720 has fallen off
00:53:45.380 because so many
00:53:46.600 along the rest of the world
00:53:48.260 look at Trudeau
00:53:49.020 and they think
00:53:49.840 he's this,
00:53:50.280 you know,
00:53:50.560 progressive prince,
00:53:52.100 this symbol of,
00:53:53.240 you know,
00:53:54.360 progressive liberalism
00:53:55.520 and he's got this wonderful-
00:53:56.760 Male feminist ally.
00:53:57.960 Male feminist ally
00:53:59.040 is utopia of Canada.
00:54:00.500 Oh no,
00:54:00.940 Trump got elected.
00:54:02.060 Looks like I'm going
00:54:02.760 to move away to Canada
00:54:03.960 to go live under
00:54:04.900 Justin Trudeau.
00:54:06.380 He's really just a
00:54:08.140 petty tyrant
00:54:09.860 is really the best way
00:54:11.160 you can put it.
00:54:11.720 And the whole mask
00:54:12.720 has finally slipped off.
00:54:13.760 I mean,
00:54:13.940 we've been saying this forever.
00:54:14.880 Like, guys,
00:54:15.460 look at the stuff
00:54:16.040 he's saying.
00:54:16.740 Look at him.
00:54:17.900 Ezra wrote a book
00:54:18.820 called The Libranos
00:54:19.900 talking about how corrupt
00:54:21.280 Justin Trudeau's
00:54:22.380 liberal party is
00:54:23.300 and it just keeps going
00:54:24.900 and going and going.
00:54:25.660 And they're all tied too.
00:54:27.120 They're tied to
00:54:27.980 the Trudeau party
00:54:29.420 as, you know,
00:54:30.340 the liberals are tied
00:54:31.260 to Biden and Obama.
00:54:33.040 The same people
00:54:33.860 who pushed them up there,
00:54:34.820 right?
00:54:35.020 Yeah.
00:54:35.260 They went to the same schools.
00:54:36.360 They went to the same,
00:54:37.180 you know,
00:54:38.140 events.
00:54:38.840 They went to the same,
00:54:39.600 well,
00:54:39.980 maybe not events,
00:54:40.700 but like the same,
00:54:42.100 they fly in the same circles
00:54:43.380 is what I mean,
00:54:44.080 right?
00:54:44.320 All of them.
00:54:45.440 And that's why
00:54:45.940 they're all backing
00:54:46.440 each other up.
00:54:47.260 It's just so obvious.
00:54:49.240 And they're all tied
00:54:49.860 to Klaus Schwab.
00:54:51.400 Yeah, exactly.
00:54:52.940 The ties are all there.
00:54:54.280 You mention any of it,
00:54:55.380 suddenly you're
00:54:56.040 a wild conspiracy theorist.
00:54:57.160 But I mean,
00:54:57.400 it's literally right there.
00:54:59.740 They're in your face
00:55:00.700 telling you that.
00:55:02.000 Klaus Schwab
00:55:02.660 gave an interview
00:55:04.160 saying that,
00:55:04.740 yeah,
00:55:04.980 half of the Canadian parliament
00:55:06.580 belongs to us,
00:55:07.520 the WF.
00:55:08.220 I'm like,
00:55:08.480 okay.
00:55:09.400 Yeah.
00:55:09.640 And I feel like
00:55:10.440 with all of that,
00:55:11.100 it's like they're just
00:55:11.760 like almost hiding
00:55:12.780 in plain sight
00:55:13.340 where it's like,
00:55:14.120 you know,
00:55:14.400 the World Economic Forum
00:55:15.480 can come out and say,
00:55:16.360 yeah,
00:55:16.540 2030,
00:55:17.240 you'll owe nothing
00:55:17.840 and you'll be happy.
00:55:18.800 Then it's like,
00:55:19.440 ah,
00:55:19.580 see guys,
00:55:20.040 it's not a conspiracy theory.
00:55:21.200 They just,
00:55:21.700 you know,
00:55:21.940 they really want
00:55:22.540 what's best for you.
00:55:23.420 So they're going to,
00:55:24.280 you know,
00:55:24.580 go full globalists
00:55:25.620 and take everything
00:55:26.500 and one world
00:55:27.140 communist government.
00:55:27.940 But that's not
00:55:28.780 really what it is.
00:55:29.620 They just,
00:55:30.220 you know,
00:55:30.780 trying to make the world
00:55:31.640 a better place
00:55:32.340 and this is what they say.
00:55:33.340 So,
00:55:33.600 I don't know.
00:55:34.100 It just,
00:55:35.240 I think it's,
00:55:36.280 they're bad people.
00:55:37.000 Yeah.
00:55:37.560 I think it's hilarious
00:55:38.280 to see like,
00:55:40.160 just how open it is
00:55:41.300 and how willfully blind
00:55:42.940 the rest of the world
00:55:43.540 has to be to it.
00:55:44.920 I mean.
00:55:45.480 Yeah,
00:55:45.700 you mention it
00:55:46.380 and it'll be like,
00:55:47.220 that's a conspiracy theory.
00:55:48.320 The Great Reset
00:55:48.880 is not a real thing.
00:55:50.140 Meanwhile,
00:55:50.460 it's on the cover
00:55:51.420 of Time Magazine,
00:55:52.660 The Great Reset.
00:55:53.480 The Great Reset.
00:55:54.360 It's like,
00:55:54.820 Klaus Schwab's book
00:55:55.760 is literally titled
00:55:56.800 The Great Reset.
00:55:57.840 The Great Reset.
00:55:58.580 I mean,
00:55:59.100 yeah.
00:55:59.700 Writer Dave
00:56:00.880 in the writer's room
00:56:02.100 with me,
00:56:02.500 he's got a copy
00:56:03.160 of the book
00:56:03.600 and I think he likes
00:56:04.420 to bust it out
00:56:05.220 from time to time
00:56:06.020 and I should read it.
00:56:07.260 Yeah.
00:56:07.620 I mean,
00:56:08.040 I'm sure it's,
00:56:08.620 yeah,
00:56:08.800 I should probably
00:56:09.280 pull that out myself.
00:56:10.800 It's like Klaus Schwab
00:56:12.700 set the,
00:56:14.100 you know,
00:56:14.380 a copy,
00:56:15.000 a signed copy
00:56:15.680 of his book
00:56:16.260 to pretty much
00:56:17.020 all these Western
00:56:17.920 world leaders
00:56:18.620 and he thanked him
00:56:19.700 for it personally.
00:56:20.540 You,
00:56:20.900 like very recently,
00:56:22.340 Mark Rutte,
00:56:24.640 Rutte?
00:56:25.100 Yeah,
00:56:25.440 Rutte,
00:56:25.980 in the Netherlands,
00:56:27.840 he was called out
00:56:29.460 by a member
00:56:30.200 of Parliament
00:56:30.800 for,
00:56:32.060 you know,
00:56:32.460 basically aligning
00:56:33.300 with Klaus Schwab.
00:56:34.100 The guy was like,
00:56:35.220 so you're pretty close
00:56:36.180 to Klaus Schwab,
00:56:36.880 you know,
00:56:37.240 you thanked him personally,
00:56:40.820 you were,
00:56:41.260 you know,
00:56:41.620 you said he was instrumental
00:56:42.940 in putting you in power,
00:56:43.860 blah,
00:56:44.000 blah,
00:56:44.100 blah,
00:56:44.200 blah,
00:56:44.300 blah,
00:56:44.340 blah.
00:56:44.900 And,
00:56:45.220 and,
00:56:45.780 and Rutte was like,
00:56:47.180 oh no,
00:56:47.600 I don't even know the guy.
00:56:49.060 And then what that dude did,
00:56:51.020 you know,
00:56:51.360 this MP,
00:56:52.180 was he pulled out that book,
00:56:53.440 he pulled out an interview
00:56:54.180 where Rutte was personally
00:56:56.820 thanking Klaus Schwab
00:56:57.800 and personally thanked him
00:56:59.160 for receiving his book
00:57:00.300 and said that it was like,
00:57:01.480 he was using as a guide
00:57:02.720 on how to lead Amsterdam
00:57:04.020 and how to lead the Netherlands.
00:57:05.840 It's like,
00:57:06.200 wow,
00:57:06.560 you know,
00:57:06.740 they lie so brazenly,
00:57:08.240 so brazenly.
00:57:09.380 Yeah,
00:57:09.580 such brazen,
00:57:10.180 and I mean,
00:57:10.840 talking about all of that as well,
00:57:12.360 that just brings to my mind
00:57:13.520 also,
00:57:14.180 Christa Freeland,
00:57:15.140 the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada
00:57:16.720 and the Finance Minister,
00:57:19.200 who is Trudeau's right-hand woman
00:57:20.660 in literally everything.
00:57:22.060 She runs more of the show
00:57:23.200 than he does.
00:57:24.180 She is literally
00:57:25.660 a World Economic Forum puppet.
00:57:28.660 Like,
00:57:28.760 she works,
00:57:29.720 I'm not sure her exact position
00:57:31.200 with the World Economic Forum.
00:57:31.680 She's a biographer,
00:57:32.340 I think.
00:57:33.660 She is Schwab's biographer,
00:57:35.360 I believe.
00:57:36.100 Yeah,
00:57:36.440 yeah,
00:57:36.700 well,
00:57:36.900 she is for sure.
00:57:37.820 She's that close of him.
00:57:38.500 And then she,
00:57:38.980 but she has an official position
00:57:40.460 presently with the World Economic Forum.
00:57:42.640 Right.
00:57:43.140 She's like the second in command there.
00:57:44.740 Yeah.
00:57:45.080 Second in command over there.
00:57:46.260 First of all,
00:57:46.600 how can that not be
00:57:47.800 just a major conflict of interest
00:57:49.700 to have,
00:57:50.460 to be the second in command
00:57:51.720 in the Canadian federal government
00:57:53.080 and with the World Economic Forum,
00:57:54.480 but I mean,
00:57:55.080 I guess they try and blend
00:57:56.200 the two together as,
00:57:57.240 you know,
00:57:57.780 unified movements.
00:57:59.240 But,
00:57:59.940 so like her,
00:58:01.240 because the biggest thing to come
00:58:02.560 from Justin Trudeau
00:58:03.560 invoking the Emergency Act
00:58:04.800 is all the financial stuff,
00:58:06.120 right?
00:58:06.340 The fact that the Canadian government
00:58:08.520 can unilaterally freeze bank accounts
00:58:12.560 and seize assets and all of that
00:58:14.040 without a court order,
00:58:15.320 without any sort of due process,
00:58:17.520 they can just go for it.
00:58:18.960 And it's sort of,
00:58:19.600 I mean,
00:58:19.900 it's nice to see so many people
00:58:21.300 kind of waking up to the fact that,
00:58:22.820 yeah,
00:58:23.040 guys,
00:58:23.380 all of these processes are in place
00:58:24.900 for the government
00:58:25.440 to completely control you
00:58:27.000 through your finances.
00:58:27.980 And maybe we need to think of ways
00:58:29.700 to prevent that
00:58:30.320 from ever being possible.
00:58:32.140 Digital ID.
00:58:33.320 Yeah.
00:58:33.540 Yeah,
00:58:33.680 they want to do it
00:58:34.300 all over the world.
00:58:35.180 I mean,
00:58:35.320 they're doing it.
00:58:35.920 Many countries already have it
00:58:37.120 and they're following China's model.
00:58:39.860 But,
00:58:39.960 you know,
00:58:40.200 instead of having a Chinese world government,
00:58:42.720 which would be a bad thing,
00:58:44.200 obviously,
00:58:45.140 they want their own version of it,
00:58:47.020 which is just follows
00:58:48.000 the same China template.
00:58:49.560 It's awful.
00:58:50.420 And like,
00:58:50.640 we're seeing it in real time in Canada
00:58:52.220 with the freezing bank accounts
00:58:53.860 and,
00:58:54.180 you know,
00:58:54.880 seizing assets and all that
00:58:55.860 for people who like
00:58:56.560 and the vaccine passports.
00:58:57.620 Yeah,
00:58:57.820 the vaccine passports
00:58:58.700 for people who don't
00:58:59.540 it's a digital ID.
00:59:00.700 Yeah,
00:59:00.940 exactly.
00:59:02.000 In France,
00:59:02.400 they admitted it.
00:59:02.820 They were like,
00:59:03.200 yeah,
00:59:03.340 vaccine passports,
00:59:04.160 basically,
00:59:04.540 a digital ID.
00:59:06.180 It's a way for us
00:59:07.080 to clamp down on your movements.
00:59:08.480 So,
00:59:08.740 you know,
00:59:09.220 you can't just decide to go somewhere.
00:59:11.400 We'll know where you are.
00:59:12.180 You're going,
00:59:12.800 you know?
00:59:13.200 Yeah.
00:59:13.760 Yeah.
00:59:14.440 Netherlands is the same thing.
00:59:15.520 Germany.
00:59:15.700 What we're celebrating,
00:59:16.580 yeah,
00:59:16.760 a lot of the provinces in Canada,
00:59:17.980 what we're celebrating,
00:59:18.760 well,
00:59:19.000 they announced they're lifting
00:59:19.740 all the vaccine passports
00:59:21.340 and a lot of them.
00:59:22.480 It's like,
00:59:22.720 well,
00:59:23.360 they're still using the QR code
00:59:24.940 and they're still allowing businesses
00:59:26.080 to enforce the vaccine passport
00:59:27.680 if they want to.
00:59:28.420 And people do it willingly.
00:59:29.920 That's how they do it,
00:59:30.980 right?
00:59:31.520 It's like,
00:59:32.060 they get to a point
00:59:32.960 where they've conditioned society
00:59:34.180 to sort of accept everything
00:59:36.000 that people will simply do it willingly
00:59:38.000 and,
00:59:38.600 you know,
00:59:39.680 it gets to a point
00:59:40.320 where it's so ubiquitous
00:59:41.540 that people will not stop using it
00:59:44.580 because it's normal.
00:59:47.080 It's just normal
00:59:47.860 and it's convenient
00:59:48.600 to have a vaccine passport.
00:59:50.440 I mean,
00:59:50.920 you're seeing now in France
00:59:52.860 where they've cut down the,
00:59:55.300 you know,
00:59:55.460 there used to be a grace period
00:59:56.440 of getting a booster shot
00:59:57.780 from six months
00:59:59.000 and cut it down to three months
00:59:59.980 and a lot of people
01:00:00.560 are complaining about it
01:00:01.520 but they're still getting boosted
01:00:03.640 because they don't want to be
01:00:05.520 quote unquote unvaccinated,
01:00:07.160 right?
01:00:07.340 It's just not convenient for them.
01:00:08.920 So,
01:00:09.580 and this is not because
01:00:10.420 the government's mandating anything,
01:00:11.720 it's because the businesses themselves
01:00:13.780 are the ones doing it.
01:00:15.340 Yeah,
01:00:15.520 I saw a headline earlier this morning.
01:00:17.140 This wasn't on our list here
01:00:18.320 but this was from a Castanet.
01:00:21.840 I think it's like some much smaller
01:00:23.700 news site in British Columbia
01:00:26.600 I think is where it's based
01:00:27.620 but it was,
01:00:28.560 and I'm not even sure
01:00:29.180 which province this article was about
01:00:30.660 but it basically just,
01:00:31.480 this one restaurant,
01:00:32.380 some local restaurant
01:00:33.260 has instituted,
01:00:34.820 even though they don't have to,
01:00:35.880 you know,
01:00:36.160 enforce the vaccine
01:00:37.000 made it anymore for the restaurant,
01:00:38.160 they have a vaccinated only section
01:00:40.120 of the restaurant
01:00:40.660 and an unvaccinated section
01:00:42.040 and I'm like,
01:00:43.060 wow,
01:00:43.400 you have to be joking here.
01:00:45.600 The fact that it's like,
01:00:46.420 well,
01:00:46.620 of course,
01:00:47.000 you can still come
01:00:47.620 and do your indoor dining
01:00:48.500 but you have to sit
01:00:49.340 in the unvaccinated section
01:00:50.620 and there's a separate section
01:00:51.720 for those who want to be safe.
01:00:53.480 But the colored people.
01:00:54.300 Yeah.
01:00:54.720 But the colored people
01:00:55.480 and the whites,
01:00:56.700 let's split it up.
01:00:57.680 Segregation is back in the course.
01:00:58.140 Yeah,
01:00:58.240 this is a different headline.
01:00:59.460 This isn't the one I was reading
01:01:00.500 but this is,
01:01:01.140 yeah,
01:01:01.220 some Chicago restaurants
01:01:02.220 to create vaccinated only sections.
01:01:04.180 Wow,
01:01:04.340 so it's not just Canada.
01:01:06.000 Yeah.
01:01:06.140 Great,
01:01:07.300 great to see.
01:01:09.320 Everybody's doing it.
01:01:10.140 Everybody's doing it
01:01:10.840 and it's like,
01:01:11.680 you know,
01:01:11.920 and these are the people,
01:01:13.400 if you talk to them,
01:01:14.180 they'll be like,
01:01:14.820 you know,
01:01:15.020 if you ask them a question,
01:01:16.340 like,
01:01:16.480 what would you do
01:01:16.980 during World War II?
01:01:17.800 Would you be the guy sitting down
01:01:19.760 or would you be,
01:01:20.860 you know,
01:01:21.020 the guy standing up
01:01:21.960 like with the rest of them,
01:01:22.980 the mob,
01:01:23.700 and raising your hand up
01:01:25.120 to salute Hitler?
01:01:26.740 They would tell you that,
01:01:27.780 oh,
01:01:27.860 I'd be the guy standing down.
01:01:29.000 I'd be the guy
01:01:29.700 supporting Bernie Sanders
01:01:31.140 and opposing the school segregation.
01:01:33.800 No,
01:01:33.960 you wouldn't.
01:01:34.680 You'd be right there with them,
01:01:36.180 with the mob,
01:01:37.060 you know,
01:01:37.280 doing all these terrible things.
01:01:38.560 You'd be the ones
01:01:39.180 snitching on your neighbors
01:01:40.460 in East Germany.
01:01:42.120 You know,
01:01:42.360 when the fall of the Soviet Union
01:01:43.820 happened in,
01:01:44.620 I mean,
01:01:45.900 fall of East Germany
01:01:46.560 happened in 1990,
01:01:48.140 the Berlin Wall,
01:01:49.320 they found out
01:01:51.000 that one third of Germans
01:01:53.220 had snitched on a neighbor.
01:01:54.940 One third of Germans
01:01:55.780 were Stassi.
01:01:57.460 Insane.
01:01:58.240 Yeah.
01:01:58.340 That's a lot of people.
01:01:59.700 That is crazy.
01:02:00.260 I mean,
01:02:00.440 it's so true
01:02:01.160 because everyone wants to be,
01:02:02.760 of course,
01:02:03.040 with the majority.
01:02:03.780 No one likes being unpopular.
01:02:05.360 No one likes being ostracized
01:02:06.840 and taking principal stands
01:02:08.720 against the majority.
01:02:09.900 But,
01:02:10.440 like,
01:02:10.640 it just blows my mind sometimes
01:02:12.260 when people,
01:02:13.800 even when the majority,
01:02:15.360 especially when it's led
01:02:16.220 by a very top-down
01:02:18.280 sort of opinion
01:02:19.760 that's led by government
01:02:20.980 and then government
01:02:21.780 and corporate media
01:02:22.580 are all pushing
01:02:23.240 this one direction.
01:02:24.660 And if you're just staying
01:02:25.680 exactly where you are,
01:02:26.840 you can see so clearly,
01:02:28.260 like,
01:02:28.460 no,
01:02:28.820 what they're doing
01:02:29.680 is so wrong.
01:02:30.780 Like,
01:02:30.900 you have to see
01:02:31.560 how this view
01:02:32.160 is so messed up.
01:02:33.320 But if you're talking
01:02:33.900 to someone
01:02:34.280 who's just,
01:02:34.840 like,
01:02:35.120 who wants to believe it,
01:02:36.540 it's incredible
01:02:37.000 to see the lengths
01:02:37.720 they'll go to defend it
01:02:38.840 and justify it.
01:02:39.440 Like,
01:02:39.680 no,
01:02:40.020 no,
01:02:40.200 no,
01:02:40.380 no.
01:02:40.540 This isn't that crazy.
01:02:41.980 Look,
01:02:42.500 yeah,
01:02:42.860 like,
01:02:43.080 if you look at it that way,
01:02:43.980 I guess it sounds kind of crazy.
01:02:45.120 But look,
01:02:45.460 they have their reasons,
01:02:46.280 they have their justifications,
01:02:47.520 like,
01:02:47.940 it's totally fine.
01:02:48.840 And then they just spit back
01:02:49.800 whatever talking points they want.
01:02:51.300 Yeah.
01:02:51.820 Yeah.
01:02:52.200 It's just like,
01:02:52.700 and they'll point out,
01:02:53.320 you know,
01:02:53.520 they'll say,
01:02:53.840 oh,
01:02:53.960 look at those guys are Nazis.
01:02:55.040 Those guys are white supremacists.
01:02:57.320 They're terrorists.
01:02:58.140 They're domestic terrorists.
01:02:59.940 They're insurgents.
01:03:00.780 You know,
01:03:00.880 I mean,
01:03:01.120 it's always something.
01:03:02.200 It's always something
01:03:02.700 to justify it.
01:03:04.360 Yeah,
01:03:04.480 it's always something.
01:03:05.320 And I mean,
01:03:05.600 I was just talking earlier
01:03:06.720 with Producer AD,
01:03:07.760 like,
01:03:08.240 we're literally in the middle
01:03:09.440 of a propaganda war.
01:03:10.820 Like,
01:03:10.960 that is kind of the height,
01:03:12.300 that is the front lines
01:03:13.100 of our world right now.
01:03:14.000 The information war.
01:03:14.680 Info wars.
01:03:15.820 Good old info wars.
01:03:17.340 I mean,
01:03:17.620 but it's so true.
01:03:18.820 I mean,
01:03:19.020 like,
01:03:19.120 that is where we're at.
01:03:20.400 Like,
01:03:20.840 the control of information
01:03:22.160 has never been greater
01:03:24.020 in terms of,
01:03:24.960 you know,
01:03:25.180 the way we get our information,
01:03:26.840 how it's filtered to us,
01:03:28.360 those who are kind of
01:03:29.100 pulling the levers
01:03:29.980 of tech and power.
01:03:31.380 And it's just,
01:03:32.360 it's crazy just to think,
01:03:33.560 like,
01:03:34.340 based off of what you're receiving
01:03:35.660 and from what sources
01:03:36.740 and from whom,
01:03:37.520 like,
01:03:38.200 your entire reality
01:03:39.180 is just shaped around that.
01:03:40.700 And I don't know,
01:03:41.840 it's just,
01:03:42.260 it's crazy when I stop
01:03:43.160 to think about it sometimes
01:03:44.140 in terms of like.
01:03:45.120 It is.
01:03:45.540 It's like,
01:03:46.480 we live in a dystopian
01:03:47.980 cyberpunk novel,
01:03:49.120 you know,
01:03:49.380 something that was written
01:03:50.140 in the 2000s.
01:03:51.420 Yeah,
01:03:51.600 or a video game,
01:03:52.420 you know?
01:03:52.700 Yeah,
01:03:52.920 exactly.
01:03:53.460 I love to point out Deus Ex
01:03:54.640 and it's like how,
01:03:55.740 oh,
01:03:55.880 wow,
01:03:56.000 we live in this world
01:03:56.720 except it's actually
01:03:57.700 marginally worse
01:03:58.660 because we don't have
01:04:00.000 cool mechs yet.
01:04:01.260 Yeah,
01:04:01.380 yeah,
01:04:01.660 exactly.
01:04:02.720 Yeah,
01:04:02.900 sometimes when I think about it,
01:04:04.860 it's like,
01:04:05.120 oh yeah,
01:04:05.400 the dystopian cool cyberpunk.
01:04:07.020 Like,
01:04:07.120 you know what,
01:04:07.380 you know,
01:04:07.560 that's kind of cool.
01:04:08.260 You know,
01:04:08.460 I can get with that.
01:04:09.520 I'll just lean into a little bit,
01:04:11.000 make sure you're playing
01:04:11.760 the right character yourself,
01:04:13.100 make sure you're on the right side
01:04:14.220 and then,
01:04:14.540 you know,
01:04:14.800 can have some fun
01:04:15.600 with living life.
01:04:17.080 But yeah,
01:04:17.920 it's crazy.
01:04:19.080 It's scary to think about.
01:04:20.160 I mean,
01:04:20.420 it's a way to sort of,
01:04:22.180 you know,
01:04:23.240 to cope with it,
01:04:24.320 right?
01:04:24.540 Because it is weird.
01:04:25.820 If you think about it,
01:04:26.680 it's weird.
01:04:27.300 The world we live in
01:04:27.960 is really,
01:04:28.740 really weird.
01:04:29.540 And I feel like a lot of people
01:04:30.560 feel really disconnected from it
01:04:33.060 because they cannot,
01:04:34.140 you know,
01:04:34.720 they cannot like,
01:04:36.360 how do you say it?
01:04:37.460 Like,
01:04:37.620 they can't put together
01:04:40.240 the conceptualization
01:04:42.160 that they have of the world
01:04:43.280 with the world
01:04:43.860 they actually live in.
01:04:45.040 It's a lot easier,
01:04:45.940 I think,
01:04:46.140 for us because we're younger
01:04:47.100 and we,
01:04:47.520 you know,
01:04:47.660 we played video games,
01:04:48.540 we watched The Matrix,
01:04:49.900 you know,
01:04:50.040 we watched a lot of science fiction.
01:04:51.380 So it's like,
01:04:51.860 okay,
01:04:52.140 this is going to happen eventually.
01:04:53.620 You know,
01:04:53.760 we can think like that.
01:04:55.340 But the other people,
01:04:56.180 they experience future shock,
01:04:57.400 you know,
01:04:57.740 for them it's future shock.
01:04:58.900 Well,
01:04:59.040 yeah,
01:04:59.220 it's true.
01:05:00.220 And I mean,
01:05:00.880 you know,
01:05:01.760 of course that can be
01:05:02.520 a depressing thought.
01:05:03.220 I'd be like,
01:05:03.520 oh yeah,
01:05:03.860 this sucks.
01:05:04.460 We're living in this dystopian
01:05:05.580 tech world.
01:05:06.600 But the thing that has given me hope
01:05:08.520 It's awesome.
01:05:09.380 Yeah,
01:05:09.680 it's great.
01:05:10.180 Come on,
01:05:10.480 guys.
01:05:10.900 I love it.
01:05:11.340 It's just drones everywhere.
01:05:12.440 There's cops want to beat people up.
01:05:13.860 No,
01:05:14.060 it's terrible,
01:05:14.580 but it's also kind of cool in a way
01:05:16.020 in a really sort of messed up sort of way.
01:05:18.780 Yeah.
01:05:19.060 But what gives me hope,
01:05:20.720 especially with all these really just
01:05:22.400 perverse narratives that,
01:05:24.480 you know,
01:05:25.060 they're all over the place.
01:05:27.140 What's really given me hope is,
01:05:28.540 especially seeing the whole
01:05:29.460 freedom combine movement in Canada
01:05:30.900 and then spilling over everywhere else
01:05:32.640 is just to be reminded that
01:05:34.220 when the people kind of start to realize
01:05:36.860 and they start to stand up
01:05:38.100 against all this top-down control,
01:05:40.140 all the narratives just fall apart.
01:05:42.040 They just completely crumble.
01:05:44.040 And it's so nice to see that
01:05:45.600 so many people are actually
01:05:47.820 waking up to this.
01:05:48.960 Like,
01:05:49.080 they're starting to see
01:05:49.880 all of the contradictions
01:05:51.100 and the inconsistencies
01:05:52.240 and people are actually
01:05:53.500 starting to ask questions
01:05:54.660 instead of blindly accepting
01:05:55.860 what's fed to them.
01:05:57.220 And so,
01:05:57.860 like,
01:05:58.120 it's great to see,
01:05:59.320 like,
01:05:59.500 especially in the States
01:06:00.520 where I feel like there's been
01:06:01.860 this strong revival of people
01:06:03.480 who are like,
01:06:04.120 you know what?
01:06:05.120 Our freedoms and our liberties
01:06:06.380 are under attack
01:06:07.340 and it is time to push back.
01:06:09.080 And,
01:06:09.220 like,
01:06:09.660 seeing all of the,
01:06:10.760 you know,
01:06:10.920 the whole red wave
01:06:11.980 expected to come in 2022
01:06:13.320 with their midterm elections
01:06:15.640 and how,
01:06:16.620 like,
01:06:17.960 the desperate attempts
01:06:19.340 from everyone to push back on this.
01:06:20.940 Like,
01:06:21.320 seeing Trudeau invoke
01:06:22.220 the Emergencies Act in Canada,
01:06:23.920 for me,
01:06:24.320 it's like,
01:06:24.700 wow,
01:06:25.060 he is so desperate right now.
01:06:26.560 So backed into a corner.
01:06:27.940 He was afraid that
01:06:28.640 it was going to grow,
01:06:29.540 right?
01:06:29.700 It was going to keep growing
01:06:30.560 where,
01:06:31.280 you know,
01:06:31.500 it's not just farmers
01:06:32.680 and truck drivers.
01:06:33.600 It's everybody coming out.
01:06:35.020 It's all blue-collar workers
01:06:36.180 marching.
01:06:37.120 That was what he was afraid of,
01:06:38.280 like a basic Canadian revolution,
01:06:40.320 but maybe not,
01:06:41.040 you know,
01:06:41.260 a violent one,
01:06:42.080 a peaceful one
01:06:42.820 that calls for him
01:06:44.040 to,
01:06:44.800 you know,
01:06:44.980 have a vote of no confidence,
01:06:46.100 really.
01:06:46.400 And he didn't want it
01:06:46.980 to get to that point.
01:06:48.440 And that's what they can't deal with
01:06:50.100 is when it's a peaceful revolution,
01:06:51.660 right?
01:06:51.940 Like,
01:06:52.340 if there was any violence,
01:06:53.840 oh,
01:06:54.040 instant January 6th,
01:06:55.180 insurrectionists,
01:06:56.100 crack down on them,
01:06:57.040 drag them out.
01:06:58.320 Whatever small display
01:06:59.420 of violence does happen,
01:07:00.460 we broadcast absolutely everywhere
01:07:02.360 and say,
01:07:02.740 look,
01:07:03.020 this is the face
01:07:03.700 of this whole movement,
01:07:05.000 crack down.
01:07:05.620 But when it's this peaceful revolution,
01:07:08.040 this grassroots movement
01:07:08.960 of the people just standing up
01:07:10.240 and saying no,
01:07:11.620 then,
01:07:12.100 you know,
01:07:12.400 he literally can't deal with it.
01:07:13.780 And so,
01:07:14.260 he could have averted all of this.
01:07:15.480 That's a sad thing.
01:07:16.260 You know,
01:07:16.360 he could have just sat down
01:07:17.900 with protesters and said,
01:07:19.060 hey,
01:07:19.160 what do you want?
01:07:20.060 What can we do?
01:07:21.080 You know,
01:07:21.320 why are you pissed off?
01:07:22.420 Instead,
01:07:22.860 he was like,
01:07:23.300 you guys are Nazis.
01:07:24.720 I won't talk to Nazis.
01:07:25.820 And that's the thing he did
01:07:26.700 from the beginning.
01:07:27.640 It's like he backed himself
01:07:29.020 into this corner
01:07:29.600 and then he just,
01:07:30.680 based off of his pride,
01:07:31.920 of course,
01:07:32.340 he could never go back on that
01:07:33.800 because then he would be
01:07:35.060 sitting down with the people
01:07:35.880 he called Nazis and extremists.
01:07:37.940 It looks bad for him.
01:07:39.140 Yeah.
01:07:39.500 I mean,
01:07:39.820 what blows my mind,
01:07:40.800 like especially when I think
01:07:42.020 about how desperate
01:07:42.660 they're getting,
01:07:43.440 is to see the length
01:07:44.960 to which they're going to lie.
01:07:46.740 Like just the bold,
01:07:48.280 outright lies.
01:07:48.960 Like the Ottawa police
01:07:50.120 Twitter account,
01:07:51.180 how it's like everything
01:07:51.980 out of their mouth,
01:07:53.200 everything written in that account
01:07:54.880 was a complete lie
01:07:55.900 in terms of like-
01:07:56.820 We don't use tear gas.
01:07:57.760 We don't use pepper spray.
01:07:59.320 Of course you do.
01:08:00.000 Yeah.
01:08:00.180 It's like we literally
01:08:01.120 have people on the ground.
01:08:02.420 We have footage of people
01:08:03.460 getting trampled by horses
01:08:04.460 and beaten with the butts
01:08:05.880 of service rifles
01:08:06.720 and kneed to the ground
01:08:08.180 repeatedly by police.
01:08:09.420 And we have images
01:08:10.360 of tear gas canisters.
01:08:12.460 Where this guy
01:08:13.100 put his hands up,
01:08:14.660 got arrested,
01:08:15.500 and they just kept
01:08:16.160 kneeing him in the back.
01:08:18.140 Like the George Floyd moment,
01:08:19.280 right there.
01:08:19.900 Yeah, exactly.
01:08:20.480 Yeah,
01:08:20.600 where he's got two cops
01:08:21.600 on top of him
01:08:22.280 and the other guy
01:08:22.880 just knee,
01:08:23.600 knee,
01:08:24.060 knee.
01:08:24.380 And it's like,
01:08:25.320 my goodness.
01:08:26.900 And did any Canadian
01:08:27.940 journalists reach out?
01:08:28.940 No.
01:08:29.440 I mean,
01:08:29.720 I guess we did,
01:08:30.620 but nobody else did.
01:08:32.220 You know,
01:08:32.560 like when Greg reposted it,
01:08:34.500 right,
01:08:34.780 Fox News guy,
01:08:35.960 he posted it.
01:08:36.580 He said that zero
01:08:37.540 mainstream Canadian
01:08:38.920 journalists reached out
01:08:39.760 about that story
01:08:40.700 and it's been out there
01:08:41.320 for days.
01:08:41.880 Yeah.
01:08:42.400 Nobody cares.
01:08:43.260 Exactly.
01:08:43.680 And that's also like
01:08:44.520 on that exact same vein.
01:08:45.720 It's just like
01:08:46.300 with the New York Times
01:08:47.140 article about how
01:08:48.380 that mentioned
01:08:49.860 that people were arrested
01:08:51.040 and taken out of their trucks
01:08:52.040 at gunpoint
01:08:52.660 and the Canadian
01:08:53.880 be like,
01:08:54.380 well,
01:08:54.480 they literally included
01:08:55.840 the photos in the article
01:08:56.900 of all of the full-on
01:08:59.320 militarized police up there
01:09:00.880 with their rifles out
01:09:01.940 pointing at the one truck
01:09:03.280 and then all of the
01:09:05.180 mainstream Canadian
01:09:06.300 journalists went ballistic
01:09:07.380 saying,
01:09:07.860 no,
01:09:08.020 it's not at gunpoint.
01:09:09.160 How dare you make
01:09:09.960 such a suggestion?
01:09:10.720 This is fake news
01:09:11.500 New York Times.
01:09:12.060 We demand a correction
01:09:13.440 that you take this down now.
01:09:14.720 And it's like,
01:09:15.600 did you read the article
01:09:17.040 and see the images
01:09:18.220 they showed?
01:09:19.100 They didn't care.
01:09:19.860 And they didn't care.
01:09:20.940 Don't believe
01:09:22.160 you're lying eyes.
01:09:23.100 Don't believe
01:09:23.620 you're lying eyes.
01:09:24.420 Exactly.
01:09:25.360 I guess the New York Times
01:09:26.840 sort of broke the mold
01:09:28.200 of,
01:09:28.900 sorry guys,
01:09:29.480 you're going against
01:09:30.220 the mainstream club here.
01:09:32.160 We don't actually
01:09:32.960 report on stuff.
01:09:34.020 We do what our masters
01:09:35.400 tell us to do
01:09:36.200 and we tow that line.
01:09:37.780 And they even deleted
01:09:38.880 the tweet
01:09:39.280 even though the article
01:09:40.240 is unchanged.
01:09:41.140 Yeah.
01:09:41.540 So that's funny.
01:09:42.860 Oh my goodness.
01:09:43.860 Yeah.
01:09:44.380 They didn't want to get
01:09:45.240 dunked on by Canadian
01:09:46.040 journalists.
01:09:46.920 Can you imagine being
01:09:47.960 caught by Canadian
01:09:49.060 journalists?
01:09:49.500 I can't.
01:09:50.220 Yeah.
01:09:50.420 No,
01:09:51.200 absolutely not.
01:09:53.040 Like maybe,
01:09:54.420 maybe getting caught
01:09:55.260 doing something.
01:09:55.960 Of course,
01:09:56.360 it's all ideologically
01:09:57.120 driven with them.
01:09:57.860 It's like,
01:09:58.100 oh,
01:09:58.280 we caught this one
01:09:59.440 far right,
01:10:00.600 you know,
01:10:01.360 person doing this.
01:10:02.700 And it's like,
01:10:03.300 oh,
01:10:03.540 wow,
01:10:03.820 what a scoop.
01:10:05.020 Great job.
01:10:05.640 How about all of this
01:10:06.760 other stuff going on?
01:10:07.640 It's always,
01:10:08.000 and it's always,
01:10:08.940 it's so convenient
01:10:09.720 that,
01:10:10.260 you know,
01:10:10.520 the guy carrying the
01:10:11.840 swastika flag
01:10:12.620 happens to be where,
01:10:14.420 you know,
01:10:14.680 one of their photographers is.
01:10:16.520 I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
01:10:17.700 I don't.
01:10:17.900 Yeah,
01:10:18.060 exactly.
01:10:18.560 You know,
01:10:18.780 like it could have been
01:10:19.580 completely circumstantial,
01:10:22.380 but it's funny how,
01:10:23.740 you know,
01:10:24.600 this guy just happened to be
01:10:25.680 where the journalists are.
01:10:26.700 Just to make sure every single
01:10:27.760 person saw that photo.
01:10:28.940 Just happened to be.
01:10:29.440 And the one,
01:10:29.900 because I've seen two images
01:10:31.080 from the convoy of someone
01:10:33.120 with a Nazi flag.
01:10:34.140 One of them was just on some
01:10:35.180 street somewhere.
01:10:36.360 And,
01:10:36.560 you know,
01:10:36.640 it was like one guy with a flag
01:10:37.920 and like a couple of other
01:10:39.040 people around him.
01:10:39.900 It's like,
01:10:40.220 wow,
01:10:40.460 look at that man,
01:10:41.300 right?
01:10:41.580 The throng of the protest.
01:10:43.000 And then another one,
01:10:44.040 which I believe we identified
01:10:45.100 as the Chateau Laurier,
01:10:46.360 which is the most prestigious
01:10:47.600 hotel in the entire city
01:10:49.360 of Ottawa,
01:10:50.240 where the cops are.
01:10:51.860 The diplomats and the RCMP
01:10:53.140 who are actually staying there
01:10:54.680 and those leaked,
01:10:55.480 leaked tweets,
01:10:56.640 not leaked tweets,
01:10:57.500 leaked messages that,
01:10:58.520 you know,
01:10:58.960 were going around on Twitter.
01:11:00.760 But yeah,
01:11:01.280 from,
01:11:01.760 I think it was like a
01:11:02.520 WeChat group or something
01:11:03.540 or something like that.
01:11:05.620 Something like that.
01:11:06.220 But yeah,
01:11:07.160 so they were on there
01:11:07.960 and seeing that the RCMP
01:11:10.360 were there bragging about
01:11:11.340 how great it was
01:11:12.200 their stay at the Chateau Laurier,
01:11:14.160 which is exactly
01:11:15.020 where the Nazi flag was.
01:11:16.600 It's just so,
01:11:17.080 it's like,
01:11:17.360 there's no grassroots,
01:11:18.920 you know,
01:11:19.220 supposedly racist trucker
01:11:21.020 out there who's going to be
01:11:21.700 staying at the Chateau Laurier.
01:11:23.180 No,
01:11:23.700 absolutely not.
01:11:24.720 So that's...
01:11:25.440 It's close to them.
01:11:26.080 It's close to the truckers.
01:11:27.120 Yeah,
01:11:27.540 exactly.
01:11:28.420 It's...
01:11:28.860 And what trucker would go
01:11:29.960 where the cops are?
01:11:31.100 That's insane.
01:11:31.800 Yeah,
01:11:31.980 no.
01:11:32.420 Yeah.
01:11:33.140 This is clearly a plant.
01:11:34.800 Clearly a plant.
01:11:35.520 So very clearly.
01:11:36.700 But I mean,
01:11:37.160 even,
01:11:38.500 you know,
01:11:39.480 yeah,
01:11:39.780 I actually,
01:11:40.380 I won't go into that
01:11:41.040 any further,
01:11:41.560 but I'm getting...
01:11:43.040 Yeah,
01:11:45.120 I just got to stop myself
01:11:46.100 right there.
01:11:46.820 But I would like to remind
01:11:47.880 everyone who's watching
01:11:48.820 the stream as well,
01:11:49.800 because I keep forgetting
01:11:50.740 to mention this,
01:11:51.760 is that we are taking
01:11:53.600 Rumble Rants.
01:11:55.000 We're demonetized on YouTube.
01:11:56.620 So whatever,
01:11:57.160 Super Chats,
01:11:57.900 Hyper Chats,
01:11:58.460 whatever YouTube does,
01:11:59.300 we can't get those.
01:12:00.020 But if you're on Odyssey,
01:12:01.240 if you're on Rumble,
01:12:02.640 if you're on any of the
01:12:03.700 other platforms
01:12:04.320 that are on Super U,
01:12:05.260 you can then Super Chats.
01:12:06.360 We're taking chats.
01:12:07.340 So if you want to send us chats,
01:12:08.540 we'll read them out,
01:12:09.200 interact with us.
01:12:10.980 Go ahead and do that.
01:12:12.340 But I mean,
01:12:13.220 on the topic,
01:12:13.820 like what we were just
01:12:14.480 talking about there,
01:12:15.300 about how it's like
01:12:16.440 the top down,
01:12:17.040 the government and the media
01:12:18.120 against the people
01:12:19.240 and the people who have
01:12:20.180 been rising up
01:12:20.920 and are looking at
01:12:21.700 other people rising up
01:12:22.700 and starting to take heart
01:12:23.900 and rising up as well,
01:12:24.820 it kind of gives me courage.
01:12:26.200 I mean,
01:12:26.480 that kind of comes back
01:12:27.460 to also like
01:12:28.320 what we were talking about
01:12:29.060 in the very beginning
01:12:29.840 with Russia and Ukraine
01:12:30.780 and Biden trying to put
01:12:32.360 so much attention
01:12:33.180 onto that
01:12:33.580 because he's absolutely
01:12:35.280 losing the faith
01:12:36.580 of the people.
01:12:37.020 He's losing sort of,
01:12:38.800 I don't know,
01:12:39.340 especially Trudeau
01:12:40.180 is losing the legitimacy
01:12:42.500 of his rule,
01:12:43.480 the moral right
01:12:44.220 to actually govern the people.
01:12:46.340 He's losing the will
01:12:47.540 and the faith of the people
01:12:48.580 and Biden particularly
01:12:49.980 is just,
01:12:50.640 you know,
01:12:51.060 losing all popularity.
01:12:53.020 Even among-
01:12:53.340 And he's losing his mind.
01:12:54.460 He's losing his mind,
01:12:55.240 of course.
01:12:55.560 I was saying earlier,
01:12:56.980 it's like,
01:12:57.420 you know,
01:12:57.660 because Biden,
01:12:58.300 you know,
01:12:58.540 he's falling apart
01:12:59.620 and like,
01:12:59.900 well,
01:13:00.060 actually quite literally
01:13:01.040 he's falling apart
01:13:01.920 and not just his administration.
01:13:03.600 But I mean,
01:13:04.640 from what I've seen,
01:13:05.660 it's like even,
01:13:06.480 you know,
01:13:06.720 hardcore Democrat voters
01:13:08.440 are starting to be like,
01:13:09.680 yeah, no.
01:13:10.300 They're trying against them.
01:13:11.100 Yeah.
01:13:11.340 Yeah.
01:13:11.540 Like there was a poll recently
01:13:13.100 they asked Democrats,
01:13:14.860 right,
01:13:15.120 and Republicans,
01:13:16.020 what you think Biden
01:13:17.780 has accomplished
01:13:18.500 and the vast majority
01:13:20.400 of people just said nothing.
01:13:21.620 Yeah.
01:13:22.380 Even the Democrats
01:13:23.040 are like,
01:13:23.380 no,
01:13:23.520 he hasn't done anything.
01:13:24.620 Yeah.
01:13:25.380 And I mean,
01:13:25.780 like that's all he had to do
01:13:27.200 was literally nothing.
01:13:28.520 He could just like be elected
01:13:29.960 and after,
01:13:31.680 you know,
01:13:31.840 ride the wave
01:13:32.540 of all of Trump's successes
01:13:33.820 and all the stuff
01:13:34.640 he actually accomplished
01:13:35.480 and just keep managing,
01:13:38.040 you know,
01:13:38.220 a very middle ground approach
01:13:39.640 and,
01:13:39.960 you know,
01:13:40.480 he could have ridden that
01:13:41.500 and people just wanted Trump gone.
01:13:43.020 But instead,
01:13:44.100 he just had to actively destroy
01:13:46.220 the economy.
01:13:47.100 Yeah.
01:13:47.620 So.
01:13:48.340 Yeah.
01:13:49.020 So didn't bother,
01:13:49.800 you know,
01:13:50.000 everything,
01:13:50.560 just everything that Trump did
01:13:51.780 right,
01:13:52.780 Biden undid
01:13:53.560 just for the sake of it.
01:13:55.420 Yeah.
01:13:55.660 I mean,
01:13:55.940 I suppose,
01:13:56.540 yeah,
01:13:56.660 that's kind of
01:13:57.400 the ideology there as well.
01:13:59.320 We're just going to be
01:14:00.100 reverse Trump,
01:14:01.240 undo everything he did
01:14:02.440 because if he did it,
01:14:03.620 he was terrible.
01:14:04.760 Therefore,
01:14:05.120 raise the price of insulin.
01:14:06.440 Yeah.
01:14:06.920 Yeah.
01:14:07.700 Yeah.
01:14:07.940 And he's taking credit for that.
01:14:09.520 He is like,
01:14:10.280 you know,
01:14:11.420 a Trump
01:14:11.860 lowered the price of insulin.
01:14:13.300 He capped it so that,
01:14:14.440 you know,
01:14:14.600 you don't have to pay $800
01:14:15.520 for a single shot.
01:14:17.120 Right.
01:14:17.280 And Biden got rid of that.
01:14:19.840 He was like,
01:14:20.340 oh,
01:14:20.480 we're just going to get rid of
01:14:21.260 everything that Trump did.
01:14:22.200 And then people had to obviously end up
01:14:24.040 paying thousands of dollars for their
01:14:25.760 insulin that they need to live.
01:14:27.560 And now he's basically just doing what
01:14:30.380 Trump did and then taking credit for it.
01:14:32.060 He's like,
01:14:32.340 I'm lowering the price of insulin.
01:14:34.160 Yeah.
01:14:35.060 Hello.
01:14:35.560 Really?
01:14:36.820 Great work.
01:14:37.580 Great work there,
01:14:38.340 Joe.
01:14:38.540 And then,
01:14:39.540 yeah,
01:14:40.560 it just seems like so much,
01:14:42.300 so many distractions there to try and,
01:14:44.320 you know,
01:14:44.840 I mean,
01:14:45.060 cause there's,
01:14:45.440 there's the desperation in terms of,
01:14:47.120 okay,
01:14:47.240 we need to stop any actual real populist
01:14:51.000 movement as in movement of the people to,
01:14:54.020 you know,
01:14:54.960 that it's actually pro freedom,
01:14:56.420 pro liberty.
01:14:57.040 And then,
01:14:57.800 you know,
01:14:58.760 so wildly desperate ploys to stop that,
01:15:01.420 including just so many distractions from
01:15:03.940 everything.
01:15:04.500 I mean,
01:15:05.280 Russia,
01:15:05.940 Ukraine is one of them.
01:15:07.380 I mean,
01:15:08.200 like what else is going on that they're
01:15:10.520 trying to hype up?
01:15:11.480 I'm just trying to think about it.
01:15:12.500 Like,
01:15:12.660 I know I've seen stuff.
01:15:14.360 I'm just kind of drawing blanks here.
01:15:15.820 Oh,
01:15:15.960 it's global warming.
01:15:16.980 Oh yeah.
01:15:17.540 Of course.
01:15:18.060 Yeah.
01:15:18.300 There's,
01:15:18.680 there's the whole,
01:15:19.260 yeah.
01:15:19.500 Cause that's the next emergency,
01:15:20.560 right?
01:15:21.380 Because,
01:15:21.740 yeah.
01:15:21.840 And then there's a numbers.
01:15:23.760 They always love bringing up the numbers in,
01:15:26.060 in Florida,
01:15:26.840 the COVID numbers,
01:15:27.800 you know,
01:15:28.040 like,
01:15:28.920 Oh yeah,
01:15:29.220 the numbers went up again,
01:15:30.280 guys.
01:15:30.640 It's because DeSantis is a bad leader,
01:15:32.220 blah,
01:15:32.420 blah,
01:15:32.560 blah.
01:15:32.980 Meanwhile,
01:15:33.460 it's the same thing all over across the board
01:15:35.420 because you know,
01:15:36.180 it's seasonal.
01:15:37.220 Yeah,
01:15:37.620 exactly.
01:15:38.220 And that's,
01:15:38.820 and that's the thing though.
01:15:40.080 It's like in the midst of all of this and all of,
01:15:42.280 you know,
01:15:42.480 it seems like we're back to the olden days pre COVID
01:15:45.440 when COVID wasn't the headline of everything
01:15:47.720 because there is actual stuff going on with people
01:15:49.960 rising up and actually.
01:15:51.440 Yeah.
01:15:51.540 It's like nobody cares about COVID anymore.
01:15:52.660 It's like,
01:15:52.920 yeah,
01:15:53.020 no one cares about it.
01:15:53.740 It's like,
01:15:53.880 where's the COVID?
01:15:54.540 What happened?
01:15:55.280 Like,
01:15:55.680 yeah,
01:15:55.900 I have not seen a single person like over the three
01:15:58.540 weeks is a massive protest was raging in Ottawa.
01:16:01.520 There was not a single mention of all this is a
01:16:03.460 super spreader event.
01:16:04.180 Like when I was there walking,
01:16:05.640 right.
01:16:06.120 You was expecting it.
01:16:07.040 Yeah.
01:16:07.260 It's like,
01:16:07.560 you could not go anywhere without like being packed
01:16:10.600 in,
01:16:10.980 surrounded by people.
01:16:11.840 Like it was not just,
01:16:13.120 you know,
01:16:13.260 breaking six feet distance.
01:16:14.100 It was like you made physical contact with like,
01:16:17.720 you know,
01:16:17.980 hundreds of people just by walking the streets of
01:16:20.200 downtown.
01:16:20.880 And so I,
01:16:22.180 I'm so surprised no one tried to ride that line,
01:16:24.400 but I'm glad they didn't.
01:16:25.940 I was tired.
01:16:26.600 I'm glad they didn't.
01:16:27.580 Yeah.
01:16:27.760 I'm,
01:16:28.120 you know,
01:16:28.240 it's been two years of that sort of thing,
01:16:29.860 but I mean,
01:16:30.740 it just kind of goes to show like,
01:16:32.040 cause none of the arguments as to why this had to be dealt
01:16:35.300 with how it was had to do with,
01:16:37.220 no,
01:16:37.420 we still need to have these restrictions to actually deal
01:16:39.900 with COVID.
01:16:40.480 Right.
01:16:40.820 That's interesting.
01:16:41.720 Right.
01:16:42.040 They never did that.
01:16:42.660 Arbitrary stuff.
01:16:43.380 Like it's as if everyone accepts that,
01:16:46.560 you know what?
01:16:47.100 These restrictions are actually useless.
01:16:48.840 They're not actually helping with any COVID stuff,
01:16:51.900 but you know what?
01:16:53.200 We need to keep them anyway.
01:16:54.260 And the fact that these people are posing them,
01:16:56.540 well,
01:16:56.760 these are just racist people opposing them.
01:16:58.680 Therefore the mandates are good.
01:17:00.340 These people are bad and crush them.
01:17:02.660 They did this.
01:17:03.460 I mean,
01:17:03.800 you have,
01:17:04.560 you have the Atlantic publishing an article saying that yes,
01:17:08.400 the mask mandates don't make any sense and they don't do
01:17:10.800 anything,
01:17:11.520 but they're still necessary.
01:17:12.880 What do you mean they're still necessary?
01:17:15.020 Go to hell.
01:17:15.760 Yeah.
01:17:16.000 Yeah.
01:17:16.240 The mask mandates don't need to make sense in order for them to
01:17:19.020 be necessary.
01:17:20.960 Okay.
01:17:21.440 Okay.
01:17:21.740 Thank you for that.
01:17:22.540 So we're just signing on with that.
01:17:24.040 I mean,
01:17:24.280 this is just like when a TSA of force people to take off their
01:17:27.480 shoes and until now you still have to take off your shoes and
01:17:31.040 you go to an American airport.
01:17:32.480 Yeah.
01:17:32.820 Why?
01:17:33.420 Of course.
01:17:33.980 What's the point?
01:17:35.020 Everything is temporary.
01:17:36.160 Just,
01:17:36.460 just like the emergency powers.
01:17:38.720 Yeah.
01:17:39.200 Yeah.
01:17:39.620 Yeah.
01:17:40.180 Can we have like a proper great reset and just do away with all
01:17:42.800 this nonsense,
01:17:43.660 please.
01:17:44.460 A real great reset,
01:17:46.060 you know,
01:17:46.480 one on our terms,
01:17:47.580 on our terms.
01:17:48.560 Yeah.
01:17:48.840 Matt,
01:17:49.040 here's the Atlantic piece.
01:17:50.820 Yeah.
01:17:51.020 Yeah.
01:17:51.140 I saw someone tweet out the other day.
01:17:52.600 It's like,
01:17:52.840 can we just have every single politician who's currently in a
01:17:56.240 significant position of power,
01:17:57.740 just resign.
01:17:58.680 And I'm like,
01:17:58.960 you know what?
01:17:59.620 That's the sort of great reset I can get behind.
01:18:01.960 Let's just clean slate.
01:18:04.320 And let's get some term limits in there so we can actually have
01:18:06.960 some turnover to our politicians.
01:18:08.960 That's a,
01:18:09.400 that's a,
01:18:09.820 two or three terms.
01:18:10.720 Yeah.
01:18:11.260 Please.
01:18:11.620 We don't need people who have been serving in Congress since
01:18:14.540 1970.
01:18:15.680 Hell no.
01:18:16.440 Yeah.
01:18:16.740 You know,
01:18:16.960 like what is that?
01:18:18.320 Yeah.
01:18:18.500 That's insane.
01:18:19.840 Yeah,
01:18:20.140 exactly.
01:18:21.160 So I'm just going to check right here now.
01:18:23.540 Cause I think we may have some rants,
01:18:26.560 some chats to respond to.
01:18:28.840 Let's take a look here.
01:18:31.620 Yeah,
01:18:32.060 we got some,
01:18:32.680 we got some chats.
01:18:33.240 Let's start reading out some chats here.
01:18:36.120 All right.
01:18:36.920 From Trinic Canadian,
01:18:38.240 $1 Trudeau and the liberals need to stop being woke and invest in
01:18:42.120 our military again and protect North America.
01:18:44.620 Well,
01:18:45.100 I mean,
01:18:45.340 I can absolutely agree that Trudeau and liberals need to stop being
01:18:48.380 woke investor in our military.
01:18:50.100 I mean,
01:18:50.600 I'm always in favor of good,
01:18:52.280 strong defense and giving our military what they need to defend us.
01:18:55.600 And not depending so much on America,
01:18:57.320 you know,
01:18:57.540 for everything.
01:18:58.400 Exactly.
01:18:58.940 But like my,
01:18:59.800 my issue is always when it's like,
01:19:01.380 all right,
01:19:01.560 we need to invest in our military Canada.
01:19:03.260 And then it's like,
01:19:04.040 okay,
01:19:04.200 well,
01:19:04.380 what is our military actually focusing on right now?
01:19:06.760 You know?
01:19:07.100 And it's like,
01:19:08.000 yeah,
01:19:08.180 right.
01:19:09.020 Are they actually,
01:19:09.820 maybe not the best thing.
01:19:10.840 Yeah.
01:19:11.240 I don't know.
01:19:11.900 It always,
01:19:12.220 always blows me away.
01:19:13.080 There's so many distractions.
01:19:14.000 And what are we buying?
01:19:14.920 Are we going to,
01:19:15.440 are we going to buy more missiles?
01:19:16.960 Is that the point?
01:19:17.860 You know,
01:19:18.100 why though?
01:19:18.880 You know,
01:19:19.100 I'd love to,
01:19:20.460 I just want to see some logic behind every decision we're making.
01:19:23.080 Just like a single cohesive.
01:19:25.460 Transparency.
01:19:26.260 Yeah.
01:19:26.880 Yeah,
01:19:27.300 exactly.
01:19:28.320 Like where's the money going?
01:19:29.480 And yeah,
01:19:29.800 you know,
01:19:30.040 you dedicate X amount of billion dollars to something,
01:19:33.340 but where is it going?
01:19:34.720 Exactly.
01:19:35.240 You can't just say the military.
01:19:36.460 We got to know.
01:19:37.000 I mean,
01:19:37.180 if it's going to CRT training in the military,
01:19:39.420 that is so not worth it.
01:19:40.920 Yeah.
01:19:41.080 And that's exactly what's happening in America.
01:19:42.920 Yeah,
01:19:43.060 exactly.
01:19:43.480 And I mean,
01:19:43.840 in Canada,
01:19:44.360 that's the thing.
01:19:44.820 It's like,
01:19:45.020 we have all these government sort of checks and balances in place in terms of transparency.
01:19:48.240 It's like,
01:19:48.560 everything has to be reported.
01:19:49.580 Everything has to be shown.
01:19:50.660 And it's right there.
01:19:51.600 Like there is transparency there,
01:19:53.320 but the thing is no one actually digs into it and reports on it.
01:19:56.160 And then no one,
01:19:57.240 so no one really knows about it.
01:19:58.480 And then no one cares.
01:19:59.260 It's like everything like the Canadian government does.
01:20:02.180 It can just do kind of in the background,
01:20:04.300 in the shadows,
01:20:04.760 there's this thin veneer of like,
01:20:06.680 you know,
01:20:07.060 progressiveness and kindness.
01:20:08.480 Where's black locks in this?
01:20:09.780 Liberal love.
01:20:10.300 Yeah,
01:20:10.460 exactly.
01:20:11.020 Exactly.
01:20:11.380 Black locks.
01:20:12.060 They should be the ones looking into it.
01:20:13.220 I mean,
01:20:13.380 they have the most access.
01:20:14.760 Yeah.
01:20:14.900 They might as well be doing it.
01:20:15.760 Yeah,
01:20:15.920 exactly.
01:20:16.280 But I guess they do do it sometimes,
01:20:17.860 but nobody knows because they put it all behind the paywall.
01:20:20.100 So exactly.
01:20:20.560 It was behind the paywall.
01:20:21.140 And then the thing is,
01:20:21.960 it's like,
01:20:22.220 you know,
01:20:22.380 people like us will pick it up,
01:20:23.500 but it just kind of speaks to the whole conglomerate of the,
01:20:26.100 you know,
01:20:26.420 government funded and corporate media who are just holding government to
01:20:30.440 account.
01:20:31.100 Funny.
01:20:31.500 You think we're real journalists?
01:20:32.880 No,
01:20:33.120 no,
01:20:33.280 no.
01:20:33.380 We're going to hold everyone else to account.
01:20:35.080 And,
01:20:35.160 uh,
01:20:35.280 propagandists.
01:20:36.200 Yeah,
01:20:36.400 exactly.
01:20:37.440 Exactly.
01:20:38.400 Uh,
01:20:38.800 I believe we've got some more chats here.
01:20:40.620 Pull up,
01:20:41.260 uh,
01:20:41.460 another one,
01:20:42.460 another Trinity Canadian Dakota.
01:20:43.660 Are you flying down to Washington?
01:20:45.560 You know what?
01:20:46.220 I would love to fly down to Washington.
01:20:48.880 Unfortunately,
01:20:49.700 sitting in Canada.
01:20:50.440 I mean,
01:20:50.800 I got no problem sharing with you.
01:20:52.120 I am on vaccinated.
01:20:53.460 That is my personal medical status in case you were curious.
01:20:56.200 And I need to be vaccinated in order to get onto a plane to go
01:20:59.700 anywhere in Canada.
01:21:00.960 So unfortunately,
01:21:02.460 no.
01:21:02.760 In fact,
01:21:03.240 I think with quarantine requirements,
01:21:05.380 I would have to go to the States and then quarantine there.
01:21:08.860 Like I haven't looked too much into it,
01:21:10.200 but especially upon return to Canada,
01:21:11.680 I would still need to quarantine another two weeks,
01:21:13.660 seven days for two weeks.
01:21:15.500 Full two weeks.
01:21:16.060 I think for,
01:21:16.640 if you're like,
01:21:16.960 if I were to even manage to make it into the States coming back,
01:21:20.540 I'd have to spend a full two weeks.
01:21:22.260 What's even the point of quarantines?
01:21:23.740 I don't get it.
01:21:24.400 I mean,
01:21:24.620 you have,
01:21:25.200 you have communal spread,
01:21:27.240 people locally getting sick from it.
01:21:29.380 And they're like,
01:21:29.960 Oh,
01:21:30.060 you need to quarantine.
01:21:31.140 They're acting as if it even works.
01:21:32.780 Like,
01:21:33.020 someone else already has it.
01:21:34.580 You know,
01:21:34.960 it's like every,
01:21:35.860 every single measure we have from quarantines to mandates to everything.
01:21:39.540 Clearly nothing has been effective.
01:21:40.800 So why are we still doing it?
01:21:43.080 Exactly.
01:21:43.840 Yeah.
01:21:44.300 If you compare Florida to New York,
01:21:47.240 Florida is doing better and they don't have any quarantines.
01:21:49.380 They don't have any lockdowns.
01:21:50.340 They don't have any mass mandates.
01:21:51.780 In fact,
01:21:52.200 it's a,
01:21:52.720 a stores cannot force it on people,
01:21:54.980 you know,
01:21:55.340 like it's against the law for schools to do it.
01:21:57.900 And they're doing better.
01:21:59.340 Yeah.
01:21:59.660 Imagine that.
01:22:00.680 Yeah,
01:22:00.800 exactly.
01:22:01.240 Oh boy.
01:22:01.900 Imagine that.
01:22:02.460 You know what?
01:22:03.220 I would love to go ahead and shout out to Yankee in Florida.
01:22:06.460 If you got some room on your floor for me,
01:22:08.680 I might just have to go over that border anyway and not come back.
01:22:13.580 So,
01:22:13.680 you know,
01:22:14.480 that'll be a fun time.
01:22:15.600 Actually,
01:22:15.800 Florida land of the free,
01:22:16.960 Florida land of the free.
01:22:17.960 Actually that,
01:22:18.660 that reminds me something else.
01:22:20.880 I just wanted to touch on quick.
01:22:22.040 There was a Congresswoman,
01:22:24.080 I think from New Mexico who during the height of everything going on this weekend with the police cracking down in Ottawa issued a statement saying,
01:22:31.620 saying that she wants that she is going to introduce legislation to allow persecuted Canadian protesters who are suffering under the hands of their government to come and seek political asylum in the United States.
01:22:46.060 That's awesome.
01:22:46.560 And I'm like,
01:22:47.420 first of all,
01:22:47.920 that's fantastic.
01:22:48.780 Like,
01:22:48.980 I love it.
01:22:49.760 That,
01:22:49.980 that just kind of warms my heart to see,
01:22:51.640 but also who would have thought we get to the point where it's the United States needing to reach out to Canada saying,
01:22:57.760 you know what?
01:22:58.280 You're essentially a communist dictatorship right now.
01:23:00.840 We are going to let the people who are being persecuted under Justin Trudeau and the liberal government to come and seek political asylum in the United States.
01:23:09.520 I love it.
01:23:10.180 And it's also sad to see at the same time.
01:23:12.100 It's incredible.
01:23:13.080 But,
01:23:13.400 you know,
01:23:13.980 expected some,
01:23:15.320 you know,
01:23:15.840 like,
01:23:16.200 like Hong Kong or something,
01:23:17.640 you know,
01:23:18.000 China's prosecution,
01:23:19.200 persecution of the people there,
01:23:20.700 but not Canada.
01:23:22.620 I mean,
01:23:22.860 who would have thought that the land that made TV shows like due South where the cops are depicted as amazing,
01:23:30.020 honest,
01:23:30.960 hardworking people who are,
01:23:32.280 you know,
01:23:32.400 just great people would be,
01:23:34.240 would turn out to be the tyrants,
01:23:35.480 you know,
01:23:35.780 like,
01:23:36.060 what the hell?
01:23:36.660 Exactly.
01:23:37.140 It's just,
01:23:37.680 you know,
01:23:37.840 and then,
01:23:38.220 I mean,
01:23:38.460 and that's true for so much,
01:23:40.060 like something I loved about being around people from the convoys.
01:23:42.980 There are so many of those people out there.
01:23:45.200 It's just that generally in Canada,
01:23:47.240 there's just way too much trust in our institutions and in the government,
01:23:50.420 just blind trust.
01:23:51.820 It's too high.
01:23:52.520 And,
01:23:52.660 and again,
01:23:53.680 they abuse it.
01:23:54.460 Yeah,
01:23:54.660 they abuse it.
01:23:55.180 And people are also just blind to the fact that the media is at the whip of the government.
01:23:58.900 It's just,
01:24:00.300 you know,
01:24:00.580 they just don't recognize it,
01:24:02.280 which is so sad.
01:24:03.160 And they criticize other countries for this,
01:24:04.260 right?
01:24:04.660 They're like,
01:24:05.260 oh,
01:24:05.480 Russia does this or Singapore does this.
01:24:08.120 Japan does this,
01:24:08.960 blah,
01:24:09.080 blah,
01:24:09.180 blah,
01:24:09.340 blah.
01:24:09.540 And it's like,
01:24:10.040 well,
01:24:10.300 Canada does it.
01:24:11.120 And people just don't seem to know or care.
01:24:13.900 It's like,
01:24:14.380 it's like Trudeau.
01:24:15.300 I think this was,
01:24:16.420 I think this was yesterday in his press conference about Russia.
01:24:18.720 Ukraine was saying,
01:24:19.800 yeah,
01:24:20.240 Canada is going to stand for democracy and stand up against authoritarianism.
01:24:24.820 That's why we stand with Ukraine.
01:24:26.200 I'm like,
01:24:26.480 Oh man,
01:24:28.220 that's incredible.
01:24:28.860 That's incredible to see.
01:24:30.060 Yeah.
01:24:30.520 Defiant out there.
01:24:33.440 So let's see here.
01:24:35.000 More chats.
01:24:36.540 Mikisa,
01:24:37.140 Mik,
01:24:37.400 Mikthresa.
01:24:38.240 I keep,
01:24:39.120 you know,
01:24:39.600 however you want to pronounce that.
01:24:41.660 If all the elites,
01:24:42.420 including Trudeau and Klaus Schwab were arrested,
01:24:44.820 then maybe all possible wars in all countries would stop.
01:24:48.200 Convoy organizers can replace the elites.
01:24:51.980 Well,
01:24:52.680 you know what?
01:24:53.400 It's pipe dream,
01:24:54.320 but it's nice.
01:24:55.440 Let's,
01:24:55.700 let's see,
01:24:56.180 you know,
01:24:56.380 I've seen so many people going on,
01:24:57.720 you know,
01:24:57.920 like we just need to arrest them all.
01:24:59.580 It's like,
01:24:59.940 well,
01:25:00.200 I don't think they have committed any crimes,
01:25:02.160 but getting him out of power is to me enough.
01:25:07.100 Yeah.
01:25:07.760 That should be enough.
01:25:08.900 Let's start with wrestling.
01:25:09.840 Vote of your confidence.
01:25:11.060 Yeah.
01:25:11.300 Yeah.
01:25:12.480 Yeah.
01:25:12.880 That's,
01:25:13.220 that's the goal.
01:25:14.260 Like,
01:25:14.440 let's not talk about war crimes and stuff yet.
01:25:16.160 It's,
01:25:16.320 that's,
01:25:17.500 that's the next level.
01:25:18.200 It's like,
01:25:18.480 yeah,
01:25:18.600 people always jump right to the most extreme.
01:25:20.480 It's like,
01:25:20.880 come on guys,
01:25:21.400 let's,
01:25:21.960 let's take what we can.
01:25:22.800 Let's calm down a little bit.
01:25:24.220 Oh man.
01:25:26.100 Uh,
01:25:26.540 let's see more rats.
01:25:27.740 Another from Trinic Canadian.
01:25:29.360 I see here.
01:25:30.800 You should think about buying Glenn Beck's,
01:25:32.300 the great reset,
01:25:33.240 Joe Biden and the rise of 21st century fascism.
01:25:35.860 I'm reading it.
01:25:36.640 And it is,
01:25:37.100 fascinating.
01:25:38.360 Well,
01:25:38.760 that is wonderful.
01:25:39.780 Trinic Canadian.
01:25:40.240 I mean,
01:25:40.980 Glenn Beck's great.
01:25:42.300 He's got some great stuff.
01:25:43.300 I've been spot on.
01:25:44.140 He talked about this stuff like 10 years ago.
01:25:45.860 I mean,
01:25:46.100 when Obama was in charge and sure enough,
01:25:48.200 it all happened.
01:25:49.060 Yeah.
01:25:49.220 Yeah.
01:25:49.540 Yeah.
01:25:49.760 And he's always,
01:25:51.100 he's always been painted as the classic.
01:25:52.940 Oh yeah.
01:25:53.380 The one,
01:25:54.000 you know,
01:25:54.380 far right conspiracy theorist in the States spewing off on the radio about all this crazy stuff.
01:25:58.520 It's trying to explain things to people because it's very complicated.
01:26:01.880 You actually watch it.
01:26:02.680 It's like,
01:26:03.100 okay,
01:26:03.280 it's pretty easy to follow,
01:26:04.240 you know?
01:26:04.600 Yeah.
01:26:04.920 He just makes it easier for you to follow.
01:26:06.280 So yeah.
01:26:06.980 Yeah.
01:26:07.300 Glenn is great.
01:26:07.900 And actually on the same note,
01:26:08.860 you're talking about how,
01:26:09.640 how who would have thought Canada would become the,
01:26:11.680 you know,
01:26:11.960 authoritarian dictatorship is,
01:26:14.220 we did an event with Glenn a few months ago and he was saying his backup plan was always,
01:26:19.600 well,
01:26:19.820 you know,
01:26:20.140 if,
01:26:20.340 if,
01:26:20.640 you know,
01:26:21.000 crap is the fan in the States,
01:26:22.300 we're just going to run away and escape to Canada up North,
01:26:25.100 you know,
01:26:25.360 you know,
01:26:25.820 strong for me to go hide in a forest somewhere.
01:26:27.600 Like,
01:26:28.040 well,
01:26:28.320 that's funny.
01:26:29.080 So,
01:26:29.300 and,
01:26:29.860 uh,
01:26:30.120 we're going to be escaping to Texas.
01:26:31.500 I think that's,
01:26:32.180 that's,
01:26:32.480 uh,
01:26:32.740 we're going to have to go join you.
01:26:34.300 So,
01:26:34.820 yeah,
01:26:35.920 yeah,
01:26:36.260 exactly.
01:26:36.520 All right.
01:26:38.620 Let's see here.
01:26:39.620 More chats from the people going here from Fraser McBurney rumble rant gives us $5.
01:26:45.960 Not that you need any more projects,
01:26:47.700 but can you make up a list of every person that has any affiliation with Klaus Schwab?
01:26:52.480 Well,
01:26:53.160 if we were to make that list,
01:26:54.740 I think it would be a little long,
01:26:56.640 a little too big,
01:26:57.920 a little long.
01:26:59.180 Basically,
01:27:00.260 I think a good rule of thumb,
01:27:01.900 if they're currently leading a federal government in any country,
01:27:05.620 odds are probably are connected.
01:27:07.780 Statistically,
01:27:08.180 they have some connections.
01:27:09.660 That's a,
01:27:09.960 you can check their website,
01:27:11.240 go to WF's website.
01:27:12.980 They put them on there.
01:27:14.520 They're literally on there and they tell you who they are.
01:27:16.880 Yeah.
01:27:17.060 We were talking about this earlier.
01:27:18.160 They're not really hiding anything.
01:27:19.700 It's all right.
01:27:20.360 They're not hiding it.
01:27:21.180 It's not a secret.
01:27:21.980 Official documents.
01:27:22.740 It's on the websites.
01:27:23.880 Go read their websites,
01:27:25.820 read their books.
01:27:26.860 You know,
01:27:27.100 you don't have to go turning to some backwater channels here to figure stuff out.
01:27:31.600 It's all right there.
01:27:32.640 So,
01:27:33.260 Oh man.
01:27:36.120 It's nuts.
01:27:37.120 It blows my mind.
01:27:38.160 So that's why I stop and think about it.
01:27:39.380 And I look like,
01:27:40.840 wow,
01:27:41.300 this is,
01:27:41.740 I'm really looking at the official website here of the world economic forum.
01:27:45.760 I never thought,
01:27:46.480 you know,
01:27:46.800 I never thought,
01:27:47.480 you know,
01:27:47.860 like one day I'd be on the same side as Alex Jones,
01:27:51.240 you know,
01:27:51.660 watching the guy go,
01:27:53.640 you know,
01:27:53.880 like in two thousands when his channel is like not really popular,
01:27:56.600 but he was like protesting against Bush against the,
01:27:59.040 you will order and stuff like that.
01:28:01.400 I thought,
01:28:01.680 man,
01:28:01.840 this guy's kind of crazy.
01:28:02.680 He's in it.
01:28:03.040 You know,
01:28:03.300 he's just goes to these events and he just is yelling at people.
01:28:06.380 And now it's like,
01:28:07.520 eh,
01:28:07.740 this guy's actually kind of right.
01:28:09.140 You know?
01:28:09.660 Yeah.
01:28:10.100 Well,
01:28:10.300 that's the thing.
01:28:11.500 Yeah.
01:28:11.660 I mean,
01:28:12.200 and that's also because everyone also gets so partisan about all this stuff too,
01:28:15.800 where it's like,
01:28:16.340 you know,
01:28:16.720 they're,
01:28:16.880 Oh,
01:28:17.120 I'm super,
01:28:17.980 you know,
01:28:18.200 pro Bush and pro all of this,
01:28:19.700 but then you kind of start to flip on the other side.
01:28:22.520 And it's like,
01:28:22.980 well,
01:28:23.100 look at all these other left wingers doing this.
01:28:25.060 And it's like,
01:28:25.700 come on guys.
01:28:26.660 It's like,
01:28:26.980 no,
01:28:27.580 no,
01:28:28.020 no.
01:28:28.380 It's like,
01:28:28.680 guys,
01:28:28.900 it's,
01:28:29.080 it's not just straight left and right.
01:28:30.780 Like this is,
01:28:31.600 it's not my,
01:28:32.280 well,
01:28:32.360 it's beyond.
01:28:33.260 The green reset doesn't recognize politics.
01:28:35.900 It doesn't recognize political boundaries and divisions.
01:28:38.120 You know,
01:28:38.320 it's,
01:28:38.560 it's beyond that.
01:28:39.800 It's like the real division.
01:28:41.320 I always keep saying this.
01:28:42.280 It really just comes down to it's the people versus the authoritarians and the ones who
01:28:47.000 want to control the people.
01:28:47.940 It's those who want to control and those who don't want to be controlled.
01:28:51.460 It's right.
01:28:52.160 So the real division doesn't matter where they actually fall on this political landscape.
01:28:56.560 They can,
01:28:57.280 yeah,
01:28:57.860 can go it on all sides.
01:28:59.060 So my advice to people is just keep your eyes open.
01:29:01.120 Look at what they're actually doing and whether or not it's,
01:29:04.140 you know,
01:29:04.400 is it going to improve freedom and liberty and the ability for people to live their lives freely and actually,
01:29:11.200 you know,
01:29:11.800 succeed or is it just going to crack down on them?
01:29:15.420 Yeah.
01:29:15.560 And look at that.
01:29:16.460 It's all professors.
01:29:18.140 Yeah,
01:29:18.260 exactly.
01:29:19.360 Yeah.
01:29:19.860 That's a whole other tangent to go into is the,
01:29:22.280 uh,
01:29:22.580 the cancer modern day academia.
01:29:25.960 Yeah,
01:29:26.440 man.
01:29:26.740 Yeah.
01:29:26.920 I just go WF people.
01:29:28.420 Yeah,
01:29:28.680 exactly.
01:29:29.660 It's bad enough that they are teaching CRT.
01:29:31.840 They're also pushing this stuff as well.
01:29:33.680 Yeah,
01:29:34.020 exactly.
01:29:34.740 Exactly.
01:29:35.300 There's the same thing.
01:29:36.580 Yeah.
01:29:36.920 It's all,
01:29:37.820 it's all there.
01:29:38.880 It's all connected.
01:29:40.360 Yeah.
01:29:40.740 Yeah.
01:29:41.200 Well,
01:29:41.400 we sound like Alex Jones.
01:29:42.480 It's all connected.
01:29:45.300 Can I get a whiteboard behind me and,
01:29:47.320 uh,
01:29:47.540 I'll whip out some markers and start drawing everything.
01:29:50.600 Show you the webs of conspiracy.
01:29:53.200 Um,
01:29:53.860 all right.
01:29:54.200 Another chat here from,
01:29:55.480 do you think who were the swastika flags flown by and why pro Nazis are folks equating Nazi regime with Justin Trudeau's regime?
01:30:04.380 Well,
01:30:04.740 clearly.
01:30:05.440 It's a possibility.
01:30:07.000 Yeah.
01:30:07.120 But yeah,
01:30:08.340 I don't,
01:30:08.780 it don't,
01:30:09.160 we don't know.
01:30:09.740 All we know is that the,
01:30:12.060 they don't represent,
01:30:13.060 you know,
01:30:13.900 the convoy at all.
01:30:15.540 And if any of them thought,
01:30:17.360 Oh,
01:30:17.560 it's a good idea to carry a swastika to,
01:30:19.220 you know,
01:30:19.780 equate it to,
01:30:20.400 to Justin Trudeau.
01:30:21.360 Well,
01:30:21.680 don't do that.
01:30:22.520 Yes.
01:30:22.920 It looks really bad.
01:30:24.020 Yeah,
01:30:24.260 exactly.
01:30:25.000 Like,
01:30:25.200 yeah,
01:30:25.300 that's the bottom line.
01:30:25.880 It's like,
01:30:26.140 what we do know is that there were these people there,
01:30:28.420 they were flying the flags and they were clearly not associated anyway with the convoy.
01:30:33.540 And it would not want it there at all.
01:30:34.900 Yeah.
01:30:35.280 People don't want,
01:30:36.120 didn't want it there.
01:30:36.740 And it seems pretty clear.
01:30:37.940 They're trying to make the convoy look bad.
01:30:39.520 That's my take anyway,
01:30:40.480 but yeah,
01:30:42.080 yeah,
01:30:42.560 exactly.
01:30:43.700 All right.
01:30:44.180 We got a few more rants here from Bokan seven.
01:30:46.940 Thank you for doing what's right.
01:30:48.880 Well,
01:30:49.580 Hey,
01:30:50.040 thank you.
01:30:50.800 Doing our jobs.
01:30:51.520 You're so,
01:30:51.980 doing our jobs.
01:30:53.260 And yeah,
01:30:53.920 that's a,
01:30:54.680 you know,
01:30:54.940 good advice for anyone.
01:30:57.180 Do what's right.
01:30:58.520 Follow your heart,
01:30:59.280 follow your conscience.
01:31:00.880 Don't do what you know too wrong.
01:31:02.500 Yeah.
01:31:02.700 Have a conscience.
01:31:03.500 I mean,
01:31:03.640 that's the first thing.
01:31:04.700 A lot of people have no sense of ethics or morality.
01:31:07.760 Well,
01:31:08.040 we,
01:31:08.360 you got to have one.
01:31:09.380 Yeah.
01:31:09.600 If without that moral compass,
01:31:11.020 that moral direction,
01:31:11.940 then what the hell are you doing?
01:31:14.040 You know,
01:31:14.580 seriously.
01:31:15.280 Yeah,
01:31:15.860 exactly.
01:31:16.800 So,
01:31:17.560 you know what?
01:31:17.880 Take that to heart.
01:31:18.540 Take that one to the bank.
01:31:20.760 Georgia,
01:31:21.200 Georgie,
01:31:21.820 just testing my card guys.
01:31:23.620 We got Batman and gamer dude.
01:31:26.340 Oh yeah.
01:31:27.040 It's okay.
01:31:27.360 Another,
01:31:27.660 another Christian Bale reference.
01:31:31.100 Yeah.
01:31:31.440 I see a lot of people keep saying I've got the Christian Bale vibe.
01:31:35.420 First and foremost among them is my younger sister who repeatedly,
01:31:38.720 especially when my hair was longer,
01:31:39.640 because I cut my hair right down recently.
01:31:41.980 Right.
01:31:42.220 So I did have the long flowing locks,
01:31:44.760 especially every time I stepped to the shower,
01:31:46.100 I had my hair slicked back.
01:31:47.100 And she's like,
01:31:47.560 yeah,
01:31:47.880 Christian Bale,
01:31:48.660 like walking right out like Bruce Wayne right now.
01:31:52.060 Absolutely.
01:31:52.460 I'm like,
01:31:52.960 you know what?
01:31:53.720 Sure.
01:31:54.020 I'll take it.
01:31:54.620 I'll take it.
01:31:55.500 Yeah.
01:31:55.900 The fire rises.
01:31:57.380 Yeah.
01:31:57.980 Keep that in mind.
01:31:58.540 Yeah,
01:31:58.860 exactly.
01:32:00.500 Oh man.
01:32:01.580 All right.
01:32:02.240 Another,
01:32:03.000 uh,
01:32:03.280 from Trinity Canadian.
01:32:04.280 I believe this is our final one.
01:32:07.080 Uh,
01:32:08.660 Ian,
01:32:08.980 what is your view on BlackRock?
01:32:10.580 I read that they are heavily involved in the administration.
01:32:13.640 Ian.
01:32:14.760 Right.
01:32:15.220 So they're buying up all this property in the United States and they're
01:32:18.360 basically driving up the price of rent and driving up the price of,
01:32:22.400 well,
01:32:22.500 property in general,
01:32:23.160 because they're buying it at,
01:32:24.300 you know,
01:32:24.820 20%,
01:32:25.600 50% more than what the property is actually worth.
01:32:28.400 And the goal of this,
01:32:30.300 I believe,
01:32:30.840 and I think they even stated this and they're working with the Chinese
01:32:33.000 government as well,
01:32:33.800 which is interesting.
01:32:34.480 They're like the only,
01:32:35.340 uh,
01:32:36.360 asset management company,
01:32:37.460 uh,
01:32:38.060 from the U S that is allowed to work in China without,
01:32:41.140 uh,
01:32:41.740 Chinese supervision.
01:32:42.780 That's interesting.
01:32:43.520 Right.
01:32:44.340 Uh,
01:32:44.500 make what you will of that.
01:32:45.820 But in the U S I think the idea here is it's,
01:32:48.800 it's basically great reset oriented where,
01:32:51.020 you know,
01:32:51.480 they once said,
01:32:52.380 and they even have this on the Twitter account,
01:32:54.220 you will own nothing and you will be happy.
01:32:56.220 Right.
01:32:56.640 And the idea is that we will live in a society where the majority of
01:33:00.420 people on the planet will not own property,
01:33:02.600 will not own houses,
01:33:04.220 but will rather rent it from a place like BlackRock.
01:33:07.660 That's the idea.
01:33:09.280 Yeah.
01:33:09.640 Which seems,
01:33:10.280 I hate it.
01:33:10.780 Yeah.
01:33:11.120 It's so,
01:33:11.780 because it's so clearly just like communist in terms of,
01:33:14.480 like,
01:33:14.760 okay,
01:33:14.960 you will not own property.
01:33:15.900 Like property is the very tenant,
01:33:17.620 like the original American motto,
01:33:19.600 life,
01:33:20.100 liberty and pursuit of happiness,
01:33:21.280 which was originally life,
01:33:23.200 liberty,
01:33:23.640 property.
01:33:24.000 And like,
01:33:24.540 that was,
01:33:24.980 that's the basis of,
01:33:26.620 you know,
01:33:26.940 Western civilization.
01:33:28.360 That's the ownership.
01:33:29.360 That's the American dream.
01:33:30.500 That is the American dream.
01:33:32.000 And so.
01:33:32.360 It means owning property means that you have a say in what happens in
01:33:36.000 government,
01:33:36.300 because you know,
01:33:37.420 in America,
01:33:38.120 you used to have to own property in order to vote.
01:33:40.820 And I believe that it should still go back to that.
01:33:43.100 I mean,
01:33:43.320 I'm,
01:33:43.640 I'm,
01:33:43.880 I'm kind of like that,
01:33:44.900 but it's fair.
01:33:46.120 I don't think homeless people should be able to vote,
01:33:47.700 you know,
01:33:47.820 because they don't really,
01:33:48.880 they're not contributing anything to society,
01:33:50.400 but that's a completely different argument.
01:33:52.480 Point is that owning property is necessary for any human.
01:33:57.660 I think,
01:33:58.100 you know,
01:33:58.260 any person to be able to say,
01:34:00.160 Hey,
01:34:00.440 this is my place on earth.
01:34:01.980 This is,
01:34:03.040 you know,
01:34:03.400 I made my mark.
01:34:04.400 This is what I own,
01:34:05.440 right?
01:34:05.660 Owning property is that.
01:34:07.200 It's a good thing.
01:34:08.040 Yeah.
01:34:08.240 And it's always,
01:34:08.880 again,
01:34:09.120 like it's just so clearly communist in terms of like,
01:34:11.060 well,
01:34:11.280 you owe nothing.
01:34:12.120 The government owns everything.
01:34:13.280 It's like,
01:34:13.620 well,
01:34:14.120 or in this case,
01:34:15.120 corporation owns everything.
01:34:16.740 Well,
01:34:16.920 it's like,
01:34:17.160 okay,
01:34:17.380 corporation with the government and that's getting into fascism.
01:34:21.420 Then it is,
01:34:22.640 it's public,
01:34:23.440 private cooperation,
01:34:24.940 whatever the hell they want to call it.
01:34:25.980 It's basically fascism.
01:34:27.280 Yeah,
01:34:27.420 exactly.
01:34:28.140 It's like,
01:34:28.360 we're at a point now where fascism,
01:34:29.820 communism,
01:34:30.260 they're just merging into,
01:34:31.300 okay,
01:34:31.640 you know,
01:34:31.880 you got people who are controlling,
01:34:33.680 you get the people who own nothing,
01:34:35.840 but they're so,
01:34:36.700 so happy.
01:34:37.980 Oh yeah.
01:34:38.480 Like,
01:34:38.580 Karl Schwab calls it the fourth industrial revolution.
01:34:42.440 Yeah.
01:34:42.700 He foresees a world in which,
01:34:44.040 you know,
01:34:44.220 people don't own anything.
01:34:45.400 Obviously he'll own plenty,
01:34:46.620 you know?
01:34:47.200 Exactly.
01:34:48.160 Exactly.
01:34:49.340 And I mean,
01:34:50.380 look at the time now that is our show for today.
01:34:53.420 Oh,
01:34:53.580 one more,
01:34:53.880 one more chat.
01:34:54.560 My bad from Fraser McBurney,
01:34:56.960 the RCMP were in the hotel that showed the Nazi flag.
01:35:00.660 It was them.
01:35:01.880 Well,
01:35:02.260 I mean,
01:35:02.460 like we said,
01:35:02.940 for sure.
01:35:03.380 Yeah.
01:35:03.580 Like we said,
01:35:04.580 they're absolutely,
01:35:05.420 we're RCMP at the hotel and that was the hotel where the flag was flown.
01:35:08.960 But I'm also not sure,
01:35:10.540 like,
01:35:10.760 I don't know if there even were RCMP staying at that hotel at the same time.
01:35:15.340 At that time.
01:35:15.680 Because the RCMP.
01:35:16.700 So we don't know until later.
01:35:18.120 So.
01:35:18.820 Correct.
01:35:19.260 I would be doubtful of that,
01:35:20.840 but Hey,
01:35:21.640 again,
01:35:22.660 never know.
01:35:23.040 Don't know.
01:35:23.800 So.
01:35:24.480 Yep.
01:35:24.660 It'd be nice if some journalists could actually do their jobs and,
01:35:28.160 you know,
01:35:28.340 try to find who those people were.
01:35:30.440 Yeah.
01:35:30.720 And interview them.
01:35:31.660 Yeah.
01:35:31.920 That's,
01:35:32.300 that's a common theme throughout today is like,
01:35:34.700 Hey,
01:35:34.840 journalists out there,
01:35:35.820 do some real journalism.
01:35:37.200 That's,
01:35:37.640 that's what we'd love to see.
01:35:38.760 But yeah,
01:35:39.260 like I was saying,
01:35:40.300 our hour is up.
01:35:41.320 It's been a pleasure,
01:35:42.060 you know,
01:35:42.280 you know,
01:35:42.480 actually talking to you in person.
01:35:44.440 Well,
01:35:44.500 not in person,
01:35:45.180 but you know,
01:35:45.720 face-to-face virtually once.
01:35:47.280 Zoom.
01:35:47.540 Over Zoom.
01:35:48.220 Yeah.
01:35:48.400 Over this wonderful technology in this dystopian world we're living.
01:35:52.000 But that's our show.
01:35:54.420 Thanks so much for everyone who is tuning in.
01:35:56.980 We will catch you next time.
01:35:58.800 We do this every single weekday at noon ET,
01:36:02.680 which I guess is like 1 a.m.
01:36:04.480 in Malaysia and wherever else in the world you're living.
01:36:07.540 Noon ET Monday through Friday.
01:36:09.360 We will next be on tomorrow with,
01:36:11.200 I think David Menzies and Sheila Gunn-Reed is the schedule there.
01:36:14.800 So make sure you tune into that.
01:36:16.660 And until next time,
01:36:18.040 you know,
01:36:18.300 keep fighting for freedom,
01:36:19.400 push back against this great reset nonsense,
01:36:21.260 and we'll catch you on the next show.
01:36:24.540 Thanks everyone.
01:36:25.220 Do you feel like you're sounding the alarm?
01:36:27.540 Yes.
01:36:27.780 For people that don't understand what the fuck is going on.
01:36:31.040 So here,
01:36:31.480 I'll put it up for you here.
01:36:32.320 Yeah.
01:36:32.600 So there's the video.
01:36:33.600 Yeah.
01:36:33.780 I don't know if your camera can see that,
01:36:34.900 but there's the video.
01:36:36.700 There's him speaking about it.
01:36:37.700 The G7 is launching a set of public policy principles for retail central bank digital
01:36:43.960 currencies,
01:36:44.820 CBDCs.
01:36:46.920 Central bank digital currencies could be a digital version of money,
01:36:50.520 a bit like a digital bank note that could be used alongside...
01:36:53.460 All right.
01:36:53.580 So that's the guy who runs our economy in the UK.
01:36:55.820 He's named the chancellor of the Exchequer.
01:36:57.360 And here is the article.
01:36:59.040 Bank of England tells ministers to intervene on digital currency programming.
01:37:02.520 Yeah.
01:37:02.720 And here's a quote from the article.
01:37:03.880 This is in the Telegraph,
01:37:04.660 the one he pulled up,
01:37:05.560 but it was behind a paywall.
01:37:06.540 So I'll just read the quote.
01:37:08.020 Digital cash could be programmed to ensure it is only spent on essentials or goods,
01:37:14.060 which an employer or government deems to be sensible.
01:37:18.420 Holy shit.
01:37:18.980 I'm going to take it one step further for you, Joe, right?
01:37:21.380 So the vaccine passport infrastructure is in place,
01:37:25.160 but now we know that the vaccine doesn't stop infection or transmission,
01:37:28.440 but the checkpoint Charlie exists everywhere.
01:37:31.380 They bring in digital banking, central banking, digital currencies.
01:37:34.340 You've got a scenario now that you're checking in and out everywhere you go
01:37:38.520 using vouchers that are programmed and you can only spend where you're told you can spend them.
01:37:44.280 There's another word for that, man.
01:37:46.020 That's called the Chinese social credit system.
01:37:49.020 That's what it's called.
01:37:49.900 And anyone who watches Black Mirror will know what I'm talking about.
01:37:52.540 That's that TV show, right?
01:37:54.080 So what they are telling us,
01:37:56.440 and when I say they, who's they?
01:37:57.600 People in power.
01:37:58.380 That's the head of our economy,
01:37:59.780 the chancellor of the Exchequer,
01:38:00.800 second most powerful person other than the prime minister
01:38:03.800 and maybe the foreign secretary in the UK, right?
01:38:06.720 He's telling us, I just played it there for you.
01:38:08.720 He's telling us that's what he, as the UK, the head of the G7,
01:38:11.920 want to bring in for the G7.
01:38:14.220 So a scenario where like in New York at the moment,
01:38:16.560 because the passport infrastructure is in place,
01:38:19.200 you bring in that digital currency and you've got this total control.
01:38:23.420 And if I'm speaking to you the way I'm speaking now,
01:38:25.880 and my employer or government,
01:38:27.200 you heard that in the quote directly, yeah?
01:38:28.840 Deems me as saying or doing something inappropriate.
01:38:31.740 Suddenly, I can't actually pay to come here and speak to you anymore.
01:38:35.120 My digital currency won't even pay for the ticket
01:38:37.240 because it will be known that I'm coming to speak to you.
01:38:40.980 Sorry, your vouchers don't allow you to purchase that ticket
01:38:43.600 to go and speak to Joe.
