Rebel News Podcast - DAILY ｜ Theresa Tam can't give up masking; Pastor Artur still a political prisoner

00:00:00.000 Good morning, good afternoon, everybody, depending on, I guess, what part of the world you're

00:00:19.100 in.

00:00:19.280 You're watching the Rebel News daily live stream, excuse me, as I adjust my computer

00:00:23.160 there, wherein we talk about the news of the day in an unscripted, spontaneous sort of

00:00:28.600 way.

00:00:28.760 I'm joined right now by my co-host, my fellow Albertan, Adam Sosa.

00:00:32.960 Adam, how's it going?

00:00:34.600 Oh, it's going wonderful.

00:00:35.460 How are you doing?

00:00:37.180 Oh, I'm doing great.

00:00:38.600 I'm just going through the list of places where we are currently streaming.

00:00:42.520 We are still, much probably to the chagrin of our big tech overlords, still streaming on

00:00:49.500 YouTube, on the censorship platform of YouTube.

00:00:52.660 However, we are also on Odyssey, Rumble, Super U, and Getter, four free speech platforms.

00:01:01.040 I wouldn't say they're conservative.

00:01:03.220 I wouldn't say they're not conservative.

00:01:05.000 The best part is they don't care about my politics and I don't care about theirs.

00:01:08.720 And from what I understand, we may also be streaming currently on Twitter.

00:01:15.540 Mr. Producer, correct me if I'm wrong.

00:01:17.180 Okay, and are we on Instagram today too?

00:01:27.660 No.

00:01:29.440 Okay, great.

00:01:30.240 So we're staying away from Instagram.

00:01:31.900 They're particularly censorious.

00:01:34.140 They have YouTube-style restrictions on the things you can and can't say.

00:01:38.440 And the reason we're sort of sprinkling around our content like Johnny Appleseed of the internet

00:01:42.380 is because YouTube really is a censorship platform.

00:01:45.660 There are things that we can say on other platforms that we cannot say on YouTube.

00:01:50.040 So if you're watching us on YouTube right now, there will come a time in the show, definitely,

00:01:54.460 100%, where we cut our YouTube feed and we move exclusively over to those other safer platforms.

00:02:00.960 Where we can engage in the free and liberal exchange of ideas.

00:02:06.160 For example, one of the things that we cannot do on YouTube is question the advice of a public

00:02:11.420 health officer as though they are the Pope of COVID.

00:02:14.960 There's some sort of religious deity that can never be wrong.

00:02:18.660 We can't question them.

00:02:20.180 There will be no free thought about matters of public health over on YouTube.

00:02:24.060 But the good news is, on Odyssey, Rumble, and Super U,

00:02:29.640 if you like the work that we're doing, if you'd like to support us completely willingly,

00:02:33.220 unlike what Justin Trudeau makes you do for the mainstream media or the CBC,

00:02:38.780 just reach into your pocket and give them money for content creation you'll never watch

00:02:44.440 and that you would never support of your own free will.

00:02:47.060 On Odyssey, you can leave us something called a hyper chat and Mr. Producer will send it to us in a chat and we will read it on air.

00:02:55.580 Likewise, with Rumble, you can leave us a Rumble rant, a paid Rumble rant.

00:02:58.740 We'll read that on air or a Super U shout.

00:03:01.940 And likewise, those are called, yes, Super U shouts and Mr. Producer will send those to us and we'll read those on air.

00:03:09.000 And it's a great way to support the work we do while also interacting with us

00:03:12.800 because it's another thing we do that the mainstream media doesn't.

00:03:15.860 Our comment section is open and we actually want your feedback.

00:03:18.840 If you've ever gone to the CBC, more often than not, the comment section is closed because they just they want your money.

00:03:27.020 They don't want your opinion.

00:03:28.480 And I think that's all the nuts and bolts of the things that we need to get out of the way before we get into the news of the day.

00:03:36.580 Let's talk about this.

00:03:39.420 We hear so often and it's been particularly difficult backing the blue when you see what cops are doing.

00:03:47.140 And these are not just Ottawa cops, but cops from police forces all across the country who ended up in Ottawa to deal with the quote unquote occupation of Ottawa.

00:03:59.320 You mean Canadian citizens going to their nation's capital to protest nationwide policies?

00:04:03.960 Where else are they supposed to do it?

00:04:06.220 But, you know, cops were trucked in from all over the country and they went there and they engaged in some pretty ugly behavior,

00:04:13.960 both against journalists, but also against peaceful protesters, pummeling them, arresting them, smashing their truck windows in,

00:04:21.220 pepper spraying them, shooting them at point blank range, running over them with horses. 0.59

00:04:26.300 I mean, I could go on and on and on. 0.85

00:04:29.020 And it makes you wonder, where are all the good cops?

00:04:31.160 Well, getting forced out of the police force, actually, either through quietly going away because they can't tolerate how woke the force is becoming.

00:04:43.360 So they just quietly take early retirement, disappear.

00:04:46.640 And then there are others who are not necessarily vaccine objectors, but people who say, you know what?

00:04:55.200 It's none of your business.

00:04:55.900 I'm not going to participate in the biomedical police state, so I'm going to keep my medical privacy to myself.

00:05:00.820 And those people get suspended from the police force.

00:05:04.280 And then there are cops who say, I signed up for the police force because I care so deeply about protecting the civil liberties of my fellow Canadian citizens that I want to wear a uniform to do it.

00:05:18.120 And what happens to those cops?

00:05:19.760 Well, they also get suspended.

00:05:22.040 Here's the story of two Edmonton City police officers, and I've met Rick Abbott in person.

00:05:29.040 And they both participated in a February 12th Freedom Convoy in Southern Alberta, and now they're both off duty with pay.

00:05:37.740 So Staff Sergeant Rick Abbott, a distinguished career in policing.

00:05:43.420 Off duty without pay, just to be clear.

00:05:46.820 Off duty without pay, yeah.

00:05:48.400 So he went to the convoy at Cootes, and both cops, Constable Elena Golosheva, I hope I'm saying that right, they spoke at the rally, and they've both been suspended now.

00:06:05.880 But had these two taken a knee at a Black Lives Matter protest and wore a rainbow patch on their uniform, fine and dandy. 0.72

00:06:16.880 It's all about woke politics and left-wing politics.

00:06:20.840 But if you express support for the civil liberties you put on a uniform every day to protect, you're fired, basically.

00:06:27.960 I mean, when you're suspended without pay, that's constructive dismissal.

00:06:31.800 How long can you work without pay?

00:06:34.420 Yeah.

00:06:34.800 And, you know, the absolutely wild thing here, the unbelievable thing here for me, is the fact that what media should be concerned about and reporting about is the brutality witnessed in Ottawa.

00:06:47.040 We saw a massive stain on policing that will endure for decades.

00:06:52.320 Policing as it exists will not be able to return.

00:06:56.500 They've done irreparable damage.

00:06:58.020 They're going to need new mechanisms and protocols.

00:07:01.060 Anyone who was still backing the blue, a large majority of those people very often sort of working class trucker people wearing those back the blue stripes, they've lost that group as well.

00:07:13.780 It is permanent damage, and we've seen virtually no little coverage from mainstream media outlets when our own journalists were attacked.

00:07:22.120 Journalists from other outlets were attacked, so it's not just rebel news.

00:07:25.760 And then there's relative silence.

00:07:28.040 And yet you see a police officer standing up for, say, the law of the land, the criminal code, our charter rights.

00:07:34.460 You see an officer trying to de-escalate, which is the language they use, even offering a hug. 0.84

00:07:40.820 We've seen officers not get in trouble for that brutality, for trampling people, for kneeling on people, for all this absurd, ridiculous conduct. 0.72

00:07:50.340 It's been given a free pass.

00:07:52.140 But if you dare give someone with a different perspective a hug, or if you dare in your own personal time show support to a very freedom and charter-oriented movement, well, then you're canceled.

00:08:04.300 I'm going to even go to the point of saying this isn't even, we've almost lost the plot.

00:08:08.400 It isn't even about woke ideologies anymore, because this is about sort of reinforcing whatever Justin Trudeau is saying at the moment.

00:08:15.780 That's where these agents of the left, this is where they've wound up.

00:08:19.900 Because standing up against police brutality was a woke, liberal talking point.

00:08:25.540 It was one of the things they espoused.

00:08:28.000 No, they just don't want to get beaten up.

00:08:30.540 I don't think they've ever actually, sorry to interrupt, I don't think they've ever actually been against police brutality.

00:08:34.680 They just don't want to be on the receiving end of it.

00:08:36.780 They're perfectly fine.

00:08:37.560 If the state uses political violence against their political enemies, that's perfectly fine.

00:08:42.960 They just don't want to be on the receiving end of it.

00:08:44.940 Well, and I'm also saying it's been one of their talking points, is we need de-escalation.

00:08:49.500 We need peaceful police.

00:08:51.380 We need police to be properly trained or defunded.

00:08:54.460 That has been their rhetoric and their language forever.

00:08:57.820 And then the second we see, and don't get me wrong, there's corruption.

00:09:01.300 We've seen extremely questionable things in the United States.

00:09:04.780 I think on some levels, there is certainly within some police forces, some racism.

00:09:09.420 There's some very clear and apparent corruption within the RCMP.

00:09:13.280 Some of these things we know, they happen.

00:09:15.660 We've seen questionable operations by RCMP forces where there was allegedly a large racist movement in Canada,

00:09:24.000 but it turned out to mostly be RCMP officers.

00:09:26.460 Cops, the Heritage Front.

00:09:28.160 Google the Heritage Front, friends.

00:09:29.900 Yeah, so this stuff happens and calling for reform and stuff like that is fine.

00:09:35.580 And sometimes there's questionable police shootings.

00:09:38.840 But what happened in Canada, in Ottawa, looked like what is happening in Russia to protesters.

00:09:45.880 Like the footage is interchangeable.

00:09:48.100 And for suddenly, all these people concerned, purportedly concerned about police brutality and violence,

00:09:54.900 they're showing their true colors, the people professing to be anti-fascist.

00:09:58.380 Once the fascist strategies are being employed in their favor, which is what Justin Trudeau is doing,

00:10:03.180 employing fascist strategies to destroy dissent.

00:10:06.000 They're very happy about it. 1.00

00:10:07.500 And they're saying, oh, well, I've literally seen Antifa people saying, well, ACAB, all cops are bastards. 1.00

00:10:12.920 But at least they're beating up the truckers now. 1.00

00:10:15.160 It's ridiculous. 0.85

00:10:16.640 Well, and there's another layer here, because, you know, I've seen online these cops are being painted as anti-vaxxers. 0.95

00:10:25.500 They're active duty police officers.

00:10:27.640 They cannot be anti-vaxxers.

00:10:30.200 They're double, probably triple vaccinated, these two, because they were employed by the EPS up until, I don't know, Friday.

00:10:37.820 So if they're not anti-vaxxers, they just can't bear to see their fellow Canadian citizens treated this way.

00:10:48.580 And like so many of our institutions, policing, academia, politics, health care, I agree about the future of these institutions,

00:10:58.360 because the conscientious objectors, the people who are governed by their moral conscience,

00:11:03.500 who see things in black and white and in ethical ways, those people are being shoved at the door.

00:11:11.100 And normally those people are shuffled into positions of leadership.

00:11:14.080 So what is the police system going to look like in Canada in 10 years,

00:11:19.380 when all the good ones who should have been shuffled into management were fired because they had good management qualities?

00:11:27.240 Yeah.

00:11:27.380 You look at the situation with the Ottawa police chief.

00:11:30.520 We saw crime literally go down in Ottawa. 0.97

00:11:35.060 What he wasn't willing to do is beat the crap out of, excuse my French, truckers, smash their windows, destroy their property. 0.56

00:11:42.400 He wasn't willing to, say, violate our basic charter rights, violate the criminal code, because what we saw there was criminal. 0.83

00:11:49.540 Some of the content, what happened to Alexa, and this is going to be fleshed out in court, but some of that conduct is criminal.

00:11:54.460 None of that happened under the prior police chief.

00:11:56.540 Don't get me wrong, people were honking, some people were upset, but on the scale of things,

00:12:01.440 people being upset about honking and him not coming in with a SWAT team versus the escalation that occurred under the new police chief,

00:12:10.100 it's an indicator of the way that things are going.

00:12:13.120 A former constable, Brian Dennison, was one of the first police officers.

00:12:16.900 I've had a chance to speak with him, and I'm going to speak with him again about what happened in Ottawa.

00:12:21.380 But the conscientious objectors, the one thing that I will say that is incredibly interesting is when we started covering these protests two years ago,

00:12:30.540 there might be one or two police officers who kind of give us the nod, or when they had their mask on,

00:12:35.800 they'd come up to us and kind of give you the elbow bump and say, good work, keep it up.

00:12:40.120 After I interviewed Brian Dennison and then attended a rally, every single cop, barring the one or two exceptions who are giving you just the stink eye from a mile away, said, thank you, Adam.

00:12:52.460 They came up to me and said, thank you, Adam.

00:12:55.100 They rallied behind this guy, and I think the unfortunate threshold is the truckers had the courage to do what they had to do to take that action.

00:13:03.540 I think the sort of rank and file mentality, pseudo-military mentality within police forces, I think that probably at least half, if not more, are starting to say enough is enough.

00:13:17.560 But then unfortunately, what we're seeing is those people, they aren't being called out to these rallies.

00:13:22.200 We saw at Coots and Milk River, and I'm sure it was the case in Ottawa as well.

00:13:26.720 They bussed in and flew in out-of-area officers, out-of-area RCMP people, because the local people won't do that to their own people.

00:13:37.720 And what does that tell you when they need to bring people in because the local officers are starting to say enough is enough?

00:13:43.160 But there does need to be a unified response to this from police.

00:13:47.160 And the fact that police chiefs are being thrown out because they're not enforcing military action, 0.79

00:13:52.020 the behest of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is ridiculous.

00:13:55.640 And I think that's probably the principal indicator of the way things have gone wrong. 0.99

00:13:59.980 To your point, there are good cops out there, but the leadership is corrupt.

00:14:04.060 If there are good leaders, they're often being thrown out.

00:14:06.500 People like Mark Neufeld, who have Pastor Artur Pawlowski behind bars for everything under the sun,

00:14:11.420 this new police chief who is a radical, and there must be legal action after all of this for what has happened to Alexa,

00:14:18.700 these truckers, some of the wild things that have happened and continue to happen despite the Emergencies Act being dropped.

00:14:23.880 This is extremely troubling, some of the things that we're seeing.

00:14:28.040 And the police are being 100%, as are the courts, weaponized as an ideological wrench, so to speak,

00:14:36.160 to drive these narratives, to drive these ideologies within society.

00:14:40.120 Yeah, that's Ottawa Interim Police Chief Steve Bell.

00:14:45.840 He's the crony who was brought in to do the bidding of the state against the peaceful protesters in Ottawa.

00:14:53.860 And he is currently investigating the hurt feelings of several journalists who were yelled at by Canadian citizens for lying about Canadian citizens.

00:15:03.560 And so he's opened investigations with regard to that and promised that he's going to look into the fact that, I guess, Evan Solomon, somebody swore at Evan Solomon.

00:15:15.480 I wish that that was the least bad thing that happened to me sometimes when I'm at work.

00:15:20.560 But that's what he's doing.

00:15:21.640 Yeah, he wasn't aware of what happened to Alexa when David Menzies asked him.

00:15:27.200 This viral video that was reported everywhere, it was in the Daily Mail, it was on Fox News, it was everywhere you looked.

00:15:35.900 Alexa being beaten and shot and pepper sprayed.

00:15:40.040 And he's like, I don't know what's going on.

00:15:41.820 Why do major American media outlets know the name of the Ottawa Police Chief?

00:15:47.480 Like, you really, really have to screw up.

00:15:50.520 Like, Buck Sexton, Hannity, all these people are asking, what's with the police chief?

00:15:56.380 What's going on?

00:15:57.040 Why did he resign?

00:15:58.020 That shouldn't be international news.

00:15:59.540 You really, really have to mess up for that to be international news.

00:16:03.260 Yeah, unreal stuff we're seeing.

00:16:05.360 Now, speaking of made-up crimes, the supply of crime did not meet the demand for crime, I guess, in Ottawa to fit their narrative.

00:16:15.460 So now, Marco Mendocino, just making things up out of whole cloth in a committee hearing.

00:16:22.720 Why don't we roll that tape?

00:16:32.360 Yeah, okay.

00:16:33.420 Okay. So, Marco Mendocino, he is the Honorable Marco Mendocino.

00:16:40.800 People tell me that he is a reputable individual, but I'm not quite sure he is.

00:16:46.300 He testified.

00:16:48.560 Right now, he's the current Minister of Public Safety.

00:16:51.100 And so, he's at a committee hearing.

00:16:53.640 You're not supposed to lie at these things.

00:16:55.320 And you're not supposed to make things up.

00:16:57.140 But the Public Safety Minister did.

00:16:59.160 It would be an ethics violation.

00:17:01.360 You would think.

00:17:02.360 But those are not a thing here in Canada.

00:17:04.680 As you know, we have Justin Trudeau getting one, two, three ethics convictions for breaking ethics laws.

00:17:12.400 It's four-strike baseball.

00:17:15.040 Right, right, right, right.

00:17:16.060 So, let's roll this because this is really something else.

00:17:19.440 Like, I just don't understand how you could be saying, on one hand, there's all these strong ties, and this is a national emergency for public safety.

00:17:28.940 And I walked every day by these protests.

00:17:31.660 It just doesn't really add up at all.

00:17:35.220 Minister, sorry.

00:17:36.580 Just ten seconds, Minister.

00:17:37.940 Well, I would say, first, it's not an insinuation.

00:17:40.300 We got the advice from our law enforcement that we met the threshold.

00:17:43.620 And secondly, Ms. Dancho.

00:17:44.080 I can't believe you put us in danger in that way.

00:17:45.820 Respectfully, Ms. Dancho.

00:17:46.980 There were Ottowans who were subjected to intimidation.

00:17:48.400 That seems very irresponsible to me.

00:17:50.240 Harassment. 0.63

00:17:51.160 Threats of rape.

00:17:51.820 I mean, and those were all supported by parties.

00:17:54.460 How could we have possibly been allowed to walk by that every day?

00:18:00.840 Harassment.

00:18:01.960 Threats of rape. 0.73

00:18:03.660 No one's in jail for threatening rape.

00:18:05.660 They're in jail for counseling to commit mischief, which, again, I reiterate, is telling somebody else to be annoying in public.

00:18:12.180 Well, we saw Ottawa's Twitter feed, the Ottawa police.

00:18:16.260 If that's where they're getting their information from, well, they need some news sources because half of what they said,

00:18:21.420 basically, if Ottawa police tweeted something during those protests, especially when they initiated enforcement,

00:18:28.080 it was very often the opposite of the truth.

00:18:29.980 While there's a video of Ottawa police pepper spraying people, Ottawa police is tweeting, we never pepper sprayed anybody.

00:18:37.000 Ottawa police says tasers were never drawn.

00:18:39.560 Tasers are being dropped by officers.

00:18:41.800 Ottawa police say we never pointed guns at anybody.

00:18:44.860 And then they're literally, there's all these videos of them pointing guns at people.

00:18:49.220 Ottawa police says that someone threw a bicycle at Ottawa police.

00:18:53.820 Turns out they ran over a lady on a mobility scooter.

00:18:56.540 In almost every instance, every major incident that took place, Ottawa police, and I can say this, it's not debatable. 0.91

00:19:03.360 They either were completely misinformed, in which case this interim chief needs to resign because he's utterly inept,

00:19:11.100 or they were flat out lying, given the pattern and how many instances we saw where they were saying the literal opposite of what there was footage circulating of.

00:19:20.660 I'm inclined to suspect that it is the latter.

00:19:24.260 These people have clearly never been to these protests.

00:19:26.920 These people have never talked to these truckers.

00:19:29.240 When I was in, the boys down in Coutts can testify to the same thing, but when I was in Milk River, you'd be offered food.

00:19:37.820 You'd be offered, oh, do you need anything?

00:19:39.900 Do you need to warm up?

00:19:40.760 Come stand by the fire.

00:19:42.080 Like, I would be 100% comfortable leaving a camera, a really fancy camera on a tripod in the middle of the place overnight.

00:19:49.660 It would be there in the morning.

00:19:51.560 People were cleaning up.

00:19:52.780 You couldn't see litter.

00:19:54.320 You couldn't find a piece of garbage anywhere.

00:19:56.320 It's very tidy, very organized, and very respectful.

00:20:00.440 The extent of the, I mean, you've probably seen this new CBC article about how the honking is causing post-traumatic stress.

00:20:08.100 We have to, you know what, can you show that, Mr. Producer?

00:20:11.680 Because we used to have a shirt, a shirt that said, 1-800-I-don't-care.

00:20:18.680 And that's how I feel about this.

00:20:20.260 1-800-I-don't-care.

00:20:23.200 Phantom honking isn't a thing.

00:20:24.740 You cut an arm off, you might have, like, phantom pain where your arm used to be.

00:20:29.880 But get over yourself, honest to goodness. 0.99

00:20:32.000 Well, and this, when they're saying these people, yeah, these people, threats of rape, that's ridiculous. 0.97

00:20:38.840 I mean, don't get me wrong. 0.99

00:20:41.100 It is entirely possible that one lunatic on Twitter said something crazy. 0.94

00:20:47.000 But by that logic... 1.00

00:20:47.740 So arrest that lunatic. 0.99

00:20:49.140 Exactly. 0.98

00:20:49.660 We have a law that deals with that. 0.89

00:20:51.120 Go get that guy. 1.00

00:20:51.800 Even at that point, like, arrest that guy, sure.

00:20:55.680 But if you're going to take one...

00:20:57.180 It's the same thing.

00:20:58.160 I have not seen in two years...

00:21:00.060 Frankly, I think the one time you might see violence is if you showed up at one of these protests with a Nazi flag.

00:21:05.100 I've been covering these protests for two years.

00:21:07.300 I was in Milk River.

00:21:08.520 We were in Kuds briefly.

00:21:09.940 I have not seen a swastika or a Confederate flag anywhere.

00:21:13.840 I've seen a bunch of anti-communist stuff, but I've never seen a swastika.

00:21:17.360 I've never seen a Confederate flag, period, plain and simple.

00:21:20.620 And I've been looking for them, 100%.

00:21:22.840 I've not seen them anywhere.

00:21:24.680 But this vitriol and this rhetoric, it's as though you were to take the...

00:21:30.780 And I think there's probably more extremists on the left who threaten violence on the regular basis, 0.97

00:21:35.080 but you don't see mainstream media outlets running that some of the BLM organizers are saying we need to kill and enslave all the whites, for example.

00:21:44.220 That isn't part of the narrative, even though that's probably more than the one odd guy who says something crazy like this.

00:21:50.960 They're simply the media, the police forces, they're all complicit in feeding this narrative that makes these people who are utterly peaceful...

00:22:00.280 You know, I have to tell you one thing from this weekend, and it was at this exact spot that you're looking at from the screen.

00:22:04.880 Someone's dog was breathing heavily.

00:22:07.400 Like, the dog was breathing heavily.

00:22:09.340 So, someone with some veterinary training interjected to the person who was walking with their dog,

00:22:15.700 and they ran around and got water bottles, and they were giving water to the dog who was breathing a little bit heavily.

00:22:21.640 That's the extent of the concern that these people have for each other.

00:22:25.020 But this weekend, and we're going to talk about this in a bit here, but suddenly there's this significant group of counter-protesters,

00:22:31.320 15 or 20, which compared to the thousands is nothing, but a smoke bomb went off in their midst.

00:22:36.800 I've not seen a smoke bomb in two years.

00:22:40.000 What I have seen is people on the sides very often yelling and shouting angry things,

00:22:44.280 and then the people say, we love you, we're fighting for your freedom too,

00:22:47.740 they throw up their peace signs, and they carry on their way.

00:22:50.240 So, this large group of counter-protesters suddenly shows up, and a smoke bomb goes off in the middle of the counter-protesters.

00:22:59.520 And the media outlets say, this is nonsense.

00:23:02.520 Like, if someone shows me the footage, I'll recant first thing, but suddenly counter-protesters show off,

00:23:07.140 a smoke bomb goes off in their presence, and the media says that the protesters,

00:23:11.120 who've been entirely peaceful for two years, threw a smoke bomb at them.

00:23:16.180 Like, it's insane rhetoric. 1.00

00:23:17.940 Like, they're threatening rape, they're throwing smoke bombs, they're racists, they're all misogynists. 1.00

00:23:24.100 It's absolutely insane. 0.99

00:23:26.060 And I don't understand how there's not a metric of accountability for, you know what,

00:23:30.100 if someone on Twitter says it's some troll shirt, but if you're involved in government,

00:23:33.960 if you're an elected official, and you say that this group of people,

00:23:37.480 they're making threats of rape when it's categorically false,

00:23:40.560 if you're the Ottawa police lying and it's categorically false,

00:23:43.280 there needs to be a mechanism of accountability for that.

00:23:45.580 Yeah, I 100%, and like you, I'll recant if I see evidence,

00:23:53.860 but I would chalk up that smoke bomb to the arson in the apartment building

00:23:58.600 when somebody staged a fake arson and tried to link it to the convoy protesters.

00:24:03.740 I feel like this is exactly the same thing, and I will take it back and apologize

00:24:09.140 to the poor little Antifa 15 people that gather to counter-protest and hold up signs that say,

00:24:16.260 hate has no home here, while they say hateful things to people walking by on the street.

00:24:20.920 And I'll gladly recant, but I don't, as of right now, I don't believe a word of it.

00:24:27.660 There's also this, and it's coming from the mainstream media, and we'll show you this,

00:24:34.740 this idea that people cannot be focused on two different issues of freedom at the exact same time.

00:24:44.800 Like, I don't know about you, Adam, but I can walk and chew gum.

00:24:47.380 I can think about two different things.

00:24:49.480 Like, I can think about building Keystone XL, and I can also think about Coastal Gas Link.

00:24:55.220 And I, you know, like, I can build two different gums.

00:24:56.760 Sheila, you have like an eight, you have an eight core processor minimum. 0.97

00:24:59.880 Sheila, you're doing a hundred things at once, so no doubts there.

00:25:03.160 Apparently not down at the CBC, because there's this CBC journalist on CBC Radio.

00:25:12.800 Apparently she's a cook, author, writer, eater. 1.00

00:25:15.420 I don't know why you have to put that you eat food in your bio.

00:25:18.780 I think that's just a given.

00:25:20.360 She's a freelance journalist on CBC Radio and the Globe and Mail, cookbook author times 12.

00:25:25.680 Does she know that you could just like go on Pinterest these days and just get whatever recipe you want that ever existed?

00:25:31.360 Anyways, and food access advocate.

00:25:34.980 She loves feeding people. 0.87

00:25:36.380 And she is upset that in Calgary, yeah, this is Calgary.

00:25:41.660 She says it's unbelievable that some Canadians are still rallying and calling for freedom while an actual war started by an actual dictator ravages Ukraine.

00:25:51.220 And even after mandates have been lifted, truly unreal.

00:25:53.920 So you can't be concerned that you can't travel domestically within your own country without participating in the biomedical police state.

00:26:02.340 You can't be concerned that some of your fellow Canadian citizens are not yet free in their own provinces that still have vaccine passports,

00:26:11.540 that still have forced masking, that little kids in some provinces still have to wear masks.

00:26:16.340 You can't care about this because Putin, what the hell kind of argument is that, that you can't hold two ideas at the same time in your head?

00:26:25.180 Is there something wrong with that?

00:26:26.920 Maybe she's not eating enough protein. 0.95

00:26:29.280 Have we thought about that?

00:26:30.440 Well, and she like the wild thing is, is she said, oh, they're violent.

00:26:35.040 She retweeted the person through the smoke bomb.

00:26:37.620 And I literally replied, well, I've been covering these for two years, these protests.

00:26:42.840 There's never been any violence whatsoever, effectively.

00:26:45.680 Like I've never seen any violence whatsoever.

00:26:48.420 But the fact is people's lives have been destroyed.

00:26:50.900 It's nice that in your CBC contract, government funded job, you get to stay at home and live your normal life.

00:26:57.620 But the fact is some people who were willing to toast class.

00:27:01.280 Some people were willing to get vaccinated.

00:27:03.240 I've interviewed people and the amount of people, the progressive talking points are falling apart here.

00:27:08.280 First off, comparative trauma is something that is not at all espoused by the left, by progressives.

00:27:16.000 If one person is experiencing a trauma and another person is experiencing a trauma,

00:27:20.160 you don't have to compare them to say one is worse or the other.

00:27:23.680 These are the same people who are investigating mean words against journalists.

00:27:30.160 Yes.

00:27:30.640 Yeah.

00:27:31.300 Yeah.

00:27:31.880 Yeah.

00:27:32.320 So there's this insane double standard.

00:27:34.940 No, 100%.

00:27:35.660 They 100% are the same people.

00:27:38.280 But there's this insane double standard where like, oh, well, if you had some childhood trauma or you're a survivor of,

00:27:47.480 you're a child soldier, let's say, or you're dealing with something, let's say, me too related.

00:27:52.520 Or like we don't compare those traumas.

00:27:54.920 Everyone's going through their own process.

00:27:56.560 This is, and I mean, this is probably pretty good.

00:27:58.440 This is pretty healthy that we don't need to say, well, what you're going through doesn't really matter.

00:28:02.140 Because something else is happening here.

00:28:03.820 But then suddenly you apply it to the global stage and these people, their stories don't matter.

00:28:07.420 And this is what I said to her.

00:28:08.160 I said, they matter.

00:28:08.900 And I think the reason that she blocked me ultimately is one, progressives don't like to engage in dialogue.

00:28:14.480 But two, I ultimately called her out for not caring about a marginalized community right now. 0.65

00:28:20.200 And I actually care about these people.

00:28:22.200 Unlike so many of these ivory tower, elite, progressive folks, media outlets who haven't been affected at all by COVID or COVID restrictions.

00:28:31.680 I actually talk to the people whose lives have been destroyed.

00:28:35.300 And I've talked to people who got the first jab, had a vicious, so they had no anti-vaccine mentality whatsoever.

00:28:41.640 They had a violent reaction.

00:28:43.440 And doctors told them, you cannot get another vaccine.

00:28:46.080 You may die.

00:28:46.820 I've talked to people who, with the same story, so this is, I'm thinking one person particularly, but this is a common story.

00:28:53.100 I've talked to at least 20 people.

00:28:54.660 The one person had this extreme reaction, medically documented.

00:28:59.540 They had been working from home for 12 years.

00:29:02.440 They worked for WestJet.

00:29:03.360 Yeah.

00:29:03.620 Working from home for 12 years, never intersected with anybody else.

00:29:07.080 They were talking with WestJet, figuring out what they could do to ensure they kept working.

00:29:12.100 And the last thing they heard from WestJet was, we're going to figure out a solution for you.

00:29:15.860 You did everything you could.

00:29:17.220 Well, a couple of weeks later, when they hadn't heard anything, they logged into their account and for their benefits.

00:29:22.200 And it said terminated.

00:29:23.320 They didn't even get a call.

00:29:25.000 Thousands of people have had that experience, whether for medical or religious reasons.

00:29:29.020 They were unable to be vaccinated and they have been excluded from society, marginalized categorically.

00:29:35.720 And this isn't some sort of, well, there's an underlying issue or there's some underlying racism.

00:29:41.020 This is overt marginalization of a group by the government actively.

00:29:46.600 And people there attending these protests, many of them vaccinated, are saying enough is enough.

00:29:52.060 We're not going to sit idly by while our Canadian brothers and sisters suffer at the hands of an unruly government and medical bureaucracy that gives no regard to the rights of individuals and is completely set aside the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

00:30:06.020 So people are gathering in a movement that is unprecedented in Canadian history.

00:30:10.500 We have seen thousands of people week after week.

00:30:13.760 If you calculate the man hours, it is categorically unprecedented in the history of Canada, this movement.

00:30:19.660 These people are not risking their jobs.

00:30:22.820 They aren't gathering every weekend.

00:30:25.000 They aren't standing in solidarity with those people who have broken down mid-interview.

00:30:28.900 And I've had to hug so that they could get through the rest of the interview because their lives have been destroyed. 0.79

00:30:34.300 These people aren't doing this because they're, and I'm going to quote her, because they're ass hats, as she called them. 0.91

00:30:39.740 They're doing this because they're Canadians. 0.97

00:30:42.060 You're the one who's lost touch of what it means to be Canadian.

00:30:44.840 You're the one who's lost track and lost touch with caring for those marginalized and outed communities.

00:30:50.740 These people, along with the truckers, along with those police officers who are doing the right thing and are being shown the road, they're the ones showing their Canadian colors.

00:30:59.260 And for the first time in a long time, I'm hearing people at these rallies say they're proud to be Canadian.

00:31:04.020 And it's not because of Justin Trudeau.

00:31:05.920 It's not because of that Ottawa police chief who's laying the hammer down.

00:31:09.260 It's because of these people who are standing in solidarity, no matter the cost.

00:31:14.080 I've got a message for Julie Van Rosendahl if she's hate watching, and I'm sure she is because I'm sure they pay people at the CBC to watch us to make sure that we don't say anything controversial.

00:31:25.620 But Julie, if you're watching, next time, instead of being a coward standing across the street, badmouthing people, why don't you walk across the street and ask them why they're standing there?

00:31:37.580 Hear their stories instead of bashing them like a coward from across the street and writing them off and making bigoted assumptions about why they're there.

00:31:47.140 And by her own logic, we should drop any investigation into the mean words said to Evan Solomon by protesters in Ottawa because Putin, because what's happening in Ukraine, because everything hinges on Ukraine.

00:32:04.320 We're not supposed to care about the wrongs that happen here, according to her.

00:32:07.460 All things are, you know, all things considered, we have to go with the balance of what's the worst thing.

00:32:13.960 And we can only care about that thing.

00:32:16.280 And so if she wants it that way, let's dance, Julie, because then I don't want to hear a single word about somebody sent me a mean tweet on Twitter, which is probably exactly what she's doing, complaining behind that block about you. 1.00

00:32:29.200 Yeah. Yeah. Well, and it's, it's, it is so sad to see how far these people, these are like, you expect nonsense like this from progressive activists.

00:32:41.120 But lots of these people are mean, you're repeating yourself.

00:32:44.860 So she is a progressive activist. Exactly. But so many people who are, who are meant to be sort of sensible center grounded people have become radical militant ideologues.

00:32:55.700 And it is absolutely shocking. The core of this though, the reason why these people can only focus on one issue to your point is because they aren't human beings with feelings on these issues.

00:33:08.800 What they are is marketing firms, their virtue signaling. And the current issue of the day is their brand.

00:33:16.480 That's what this comes down to, because if you genuinely concern, we're concerned for the people of the Ukraine and for civil liberties in Canada, you'd focus on things at different times, but they would still all weigh heavy on your heart.

00:33:29.480 And this is a time in the world that weighs heavy on the hearts of many.

00:33:32.660 But I think for these people, I don't think issues way too heavily on their heart for many of them, because all they're doing is what's the latest thing that I'm supposed to be commenting on.

00:33:42.000 You can go back and I can, I can mark this, look at some of these ongoing persistent voices and see if they ever have an original thought that isn't what Justin Trudeau is telling them to say.

00:33:52.880 These people, when Justin Trudeau was ranting about mandates, it was all mandates. Now, Justin Trudeau is talking about the Ukraine. All they talk about is the Ukraine.

00:33:59.880 Like these people stopped talking about COVID the second Justin Trudeau did. They were manic about it while Justin Trudeau was talking about it. A day later, oh, we only talk about this because this is what Justin Trudeau is talking about.

00:34:11.180 They don't care about these issues. They care about looking like they care about the current issue of the day.

00:34:16.560 I don't doubt that they see, instead of creating the news that's trending, they go look at what's trending and then they comment on it.

00:34:23.280 Speaking of people pretending to care, how's that for a segue, Adam?

00:34:30.100 Nice.

00:34:30.340 BC Premier Hogan, he said, John Horgan, excuse me, he said that, and this is echoing something that our former energy minister here in Alberta once said, just go to BC.

00:34:48.400 You know, you don't have a job in Alberta, just go to BC. We'll just destroy the oil industry in Alberta. And if you need a job, you can just get on a bus and go to BC.

00:34:56.960 Well, now, John Horgan says that gas prices getting you down, just get on the bus. Sure, it might not go to where your job is. And sure, you might have three kids that you need to take to hockey, rugby and basketball simultaneously at the exact same time.

00:35:15.520 And maybe you need to do a grocery run and maybe you live rurally and maybe a grocery run looks like a trunk full of Costco groceries. That's fine. You can just take public transportation.

00:35:26.480 What world do these people live in? How about get rid of a carbon tax? How about that?

00:35:32.880 These are the very people who have the ability to instantly make gas cheaper. It's within their power. But instead of doing something about it, they say, oh, just take the bus. It's fine. Take the bus. He doesn't take the bus. I guarantee you that.

00:35:47.720 I can tell you which world they live in. And that's what I was going to say. They live in a world where they've never taken public transit or maybe they haven't taken public transit since high school.

00:35:55.280 And it was sort of a whatever thing like these people. It's so rare that any of them practice what they preach.

00:36:01.520 If there is the odd kook green party or liberal candidate who bikes to work every day or uses public transit. 0.98

00:36:07.680 Hey, kudos for actually practicing what you preach. But that the vast majority of these people echoing these nonsensical talking points, they don't live it out categorically.

00:36:16.260 Rachel Notley said the same thing. She's like, oh, the UCP, you're driving up the costs and people can't afford this stuff. I'm like, like, so carbon tax helps like everything they do increases the cost of living for middle class people or people who are trying to enter the middle class.

00:36:34.300 It's all just more taxes. And then the rich still managed to find loopholes and donate and get around this or they they use lead certification grants to get their money back for their massive downtown building, despite being millionaires.

00:36:47.840 And average Joe is like us pay way more for gas. And then we have to take the bus with our groceries.

00:36:51.660 It's it's it's they're living. There's this ivory tower glass that that throughout almost all these stories, it permeates all these things.

00:37:00.620 There are people telling everyone else how to live, but they're not living in the real world.

00:37:05.180 They're living in this other sort of bubble where, yeah, you can just take the bus, like give them cake.

00:37:10.440 It's give them cake. Literally, it's Mary Antoinette looking down from the tower saying, well, just let them eat some cake.

00:37:17.580 They'll be fine. Yeah, it's weird how they think that everybody in this province lives in downtown Edmonton or downtown Calgary.

00:37:28.600 I don't know how someone's going to get their chicken feed home from the feed store on the bus when you live on a gravel road like I do.

00:37:35.840 Like it's just it's insane. And, you know, B.C. B.C. is pretty spread out once you get outside of the, you know, the the lower mainland.

00:37:48.320 It's pretty spread out. Well, I think the underlying issue with this is like these cities like Vancouver and Calgary, not the people in them,

00:37:59.500 but the elected officials, they want to pretend these cities are New York City and Sao Paulo, where there is such a dense pop.

00:38:07.900 And I've been to these cities so I can speak to it. There is such a dense population and traffic is so bad that there's a train every 30 seconds.

00:38:16.160 And it literally goes and the train goes within walking distance of everything. So you can get anywhere faster.

00:38:22.480 They go to the airport. They go absolutely everywhere because everything is so dense.

00:38:25.680 And there's so many people that for relatively cheap, you throw in a buck, it's so much cheaper down there.

00:38:30.880 I mean, you throw in a buck or less and there's so many people participating in it that it works.

00:38:35.200 And it's just like sort of organic pulsating network within the city. That's how people get around.

00:38:41.080 People, progressives, very often who haven't been to this city, these people get elected.

00:38:45.800 They maybe have heard about New York or they visited it once and they're like, oh, this is cool.

00:38:50.680 I want this where I live. Well, unfortunately, when your city is much bigger than Manhattan,

00:38:55.680 with one 20th of the population, it's completely untenable to have functional transit.

00:39:03.300 It doesn't work. I use transit for many years when I was going to school.

00:39:06.380 I lived way on the burbs. I went to downtown. It took me an hour and a half to go 20 minutes, like both ways.

00:39:12.460 I lost three hours every day. If you have kids, if you're working, you can't do that. It's untenable.

00:39:17.360 And the costs are so high and you have, if we're going to pretend we care about the environment and we're going to pretend we care about gas causes, costs rather.

00:39:27.100 How often do you see giant empty buses driving around? It's nonstop everywhere.

00:39:34.040 Just gigantic buses. Sometimes you'll see accordion buses with one person on it.

00:39:38.280 It's great for the environment. Real solid.

00:39:42.380 Now, speaking of the environment, something that's near and dear to my heart is energy independence and building pipelines because Russia rises and falls on the price of oil.

00:39:54.620 And yet, I think every year, Canada buys a half a billion dollars worth of Russian oil to be refined on our East Coast because we can't get a pipeline built from Alberta, which is the Saudi Arabia of North America.

00:40:10.620 We can't get a pipeline built from here.

00:40:12.720 And the Keystone XL, as first order of business, Joe Biden canceled it, even though it was basically all but done.

00:40:19.640 But not only did he cancel reliable, ethical, democratic Canadian oil in a pipeline that would have alleviated some pressures on the American system and driven the cost of oil or the cost of living down in the United States.

00:40:38.120 He also began yanking permits for drilling in the United States, all in pursuit of the Green New Deal. 0.82

00:40:43.760 And one of the quickest fixes would be to just turn on the taps, just open up drilling, flood the market, create American jobs and starve Putin's war machine of the funds that it needs to do what it's doing, if that is the end goal.

00:41:03.960 But we have a spokesperson, Jen Psaki, telling us what they plan to do when somebody asked her, hey, you know that pipeline from Alberta that's just like basically done?

00:41:15.780 You just have a little this much left to do and we could just do it.

00:41:19.380 And you guys would have reliable oil that isn't Russian?

00:41:23.140 Because actually, I think I saw today, it was like 700 barrels of 700,000, I think, around that barrels of oil per day the United States gets from Russia.

00:41:32.940 Now, Keystone XL, 830,000 barrels of oil from Alberta.

00:41:39.840 We can fill it every day, every single day, all day long.

00:41:42.960 It would completely offset Russian oil.

00:41:45.360 But she's got another solution.

00:41:46.780 Let's roll that.

00:41:47.800 On oil leases, what this actually justifies in President Biden's view is the fact that we need to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, on oil in general,

00:41:56.300 and we need to look at other ways of having energy in our country and others.

00:42:01.440 One of the interesting things, George, we've seen over the last week or so is that a number of European countries are recognizing they need to reduce their own reliance on Russian oil.

00:42:10.960 On oil leases, what this actually justifies in.

00:42:13.360 Like, it's like you keep the question is effectively, you keep giving money to Putin's war machine.

00:42:23.240 And her response is, well, like, we need to go green.

00:42:27.660 Like, the cognitive dissonance.

00:42:29.600 Going green is how.

00:42:31.900 Sorry, go ahead, please.

00:42:33.460 No, no.

00:42:33.960 Just the cognitive dissonance of Biden's principal concerns right now are the war in Ukraine, supply demand issues, and gas prices.

00:42:43.400 You just put the little bit of pipe in and almost all of your, like, the heaviest sanction you can impose is just being like, we're buying Canadian oil instead because it's ethical.

00:42:51.340 But this underlying, and it's no longer conspiratorial, but the World Economic Forum stuff, the George Soros stuff, Trudeau, what makes sense for Canada, what makes sense for Canadian jobs is to get a pipeline.

00:43:06.440 We need oil.

00:43:07.020 Ontario uses a ton of oil.

00:43:09.440 They need it from somewhere.

00:43:11.120 Piping it out from Alberta is the logical solution.

00:43:14.100 They won't do it.

00:43:15.260 Biden's principal issues would all be resolved by piping oil down.

00:43:19.380 They won't do it.

00:43:20.160 They continued to buy Saudi and Russian oil when the pipeline is right here and it would resolve all of these problems.

00:43:27.320 It's completely irrational and it is categorically ideologically driven.

00:43:31.020 It's like being like a low-level employee and you know there's a better way to do something, but your boss just said you can't do that one thing.

00:43:40.060 You can do anything you want.

00:43:41.320 It can be irrational, but you can't do this one thing even though it's the best solution.

00:43:45.240 That's what they've been told by their bosses.

00:43:46.500 Well, and pursuing more green energy is exactly how you got in this mess in the first place, Germany. 0.67

00:43:54.540 Germany, I think, gets 40% of their natural gas from Russia's Gazprom, which enriches the Russian war machine. 0.63

00:44:02.000 And that's why when they kicked Russia off the SWIFT payment system, the monetary exchange, they didn't put fossil fuels like gas and oil into that because it would be catastrophic to Germany.

00:44:24.080 Because Germany said, we need to go green so we're stopping coal, but Germany also needs to fuel its economy and heat homes.

00:44:33.080 So where are they going to get their energy from?

00:44:36.580 Certainly not from wind turbines, certainly not from solar panels.

00:44:40.380 They had to get natural gas and they could get it from Russia.

00:44:44.640 And so pursuing green energy is exactly what gave Russia the power to do what they're doing now.

00:44:54.420 And so what does the Biden administration say?

00:44:56.640 You know what?

00:44:58.000 We need to do more of that. 1.00

00:44:59.480 These are the dumbest people that have ever run the free world ever. 0.99

00:45:03.660 And I'm including Jimmy Carter in that assessment. 1.00

00:45:06.320 And like her response, like she's the like media response person and she defers to broken, nonsensical talking points worse than Justin Trudeau does.

00:45:19.240 Like that response is categorically embarrassing.

00:45:22.320 And it's not only that she could have very easily said in ambiguous terms, like, but they're so ideologically driven.

00:45:30.640 She could have said in very ambiguous terms, like we are exploring alternative possibilities and we absolutely no longer want to fund Russia's war machine, but we are facing supply to it.

00:45:41.220 She could have said some ambiguous political speak like that and kind of moved on. 0.90

00:45:46.100 But no, she had to get in that, well, we need solar panels to defeat Putin talking point, which is just absolute nonsense and doesn't do anything to alleviate this.

00:45:56.320 Ultimately, the other thing, too, is so many of the sanctions, obviously, they're hurting Putin.

00:46:01.020 Obviously, they're hurting Russia.

00:46:02.880 Some would argue that they're pushing Russia to become more extreme because with the pushback they're experiencing in the Ukraine, they thought this would be over overnight.

00:46:10.680 That's not the case.

00:46:11.640 They're now being devastated financially.

00:46:13.880 Some are arguing they're being radicalized.

00:46:15.980 But the fact is none of these sanctions, they all go to undermine the economic situation, but none of them directly help the people of the Ukraine who are suffering.

00:46:25.620 They're arbitrary sanctions against the class of Russian citizens, but they don't do anything to interfere with the front lines other than make a point and impose some financial sanctions on Russia.

00:46:36.520 But they don't they don't do anything right on that front line.

00:46:40.440 Yeah.

00:46:41.240 Now, we do have a petition that we will eventually deliver to the American consulate in Calgary, in the heart of oil and gas country at buildkeystonexl.com.

00:46:53.620 It's a real simple fix.

00:46:55.680 It'll offset every single barrel of Russian oil that comes into the United States by finishing that one very nearly complete pipeline.

00:47:05.880 It will create American jobs.

00:47:07.360 It will create Canadian jobs.

00:47:10.340 And it will benefit the safety and security of the free world.

00:47:14.680 And yet they're hung up on solar panels.

00:47:17.280 But anyway, if you want to sign that petition, just go to buildkeystonexl.com and myself or maybe Adam, we'll mosey on down to the American consulate and hand deliver your signatures to the American consulate there to send the American administration a message.

00:47:35.060 Right there.

00:47:36.520 10,000 signatures.

00:47:37.560 Let's get to that 15,000 right away.

00:47:39.520 If everyone on stream who hasn't already signed that petition goes and signs right now, we're on all these platforms, share it with a friend.

00:47:46.420 We can get a ton of signatures on there.

00:47:47.920 If we could get 100,000 signatures, that would be incredible.

00:47:50.920 So go sign that right away, folks.

00:47:53.620 Least you can do.

00:47:55.860 Yeah.

00:47:56.260 I mean, if you care about Ukraine, sign it.

00:48:00.340 If you don't care about Ukraine, but you care about energy security, sign it.

00:48:05.660 If you care about American jobs, sign it. 0.97

00:48:07.560 If you care about Canadian jobs, sign it.

00:48:10.580 If you don't like Justin Trudeau.

00:48:13.380 If you don't, sign it for spite.

00:48:15.040 I do a lot of things for spite.

00:48:16.460 Just sign it for spite.

00:48:18.240 Yeah.

00:48:20.500 We have one last thing that we should talk about before we get to chats.

00:48:23.460 I didn't even check to see if we have chats rolling in, but it is Pastor Art Poloski.

00:48:28.700 Adam, can you give us an update on the situation there?

00:48:30.760 Because it is grim.

00:48:32.780 Tomorrow here in Alberta, basically all the restrictions are being lifted.

00:48:36.960 No masks in public.

00:48:39.040 Our vaccine passport went away two weeks ago.

00:48:43.100 The gathering limits are being lifted.

00:48:45.520 And yet, Pastor Art Poloski languishes in jail.

00:48:48.520 So why don't you give us an update?

00:48:49.420 You know, I can't emphasize this too much.

00:48:53.920 I will have a legal update with Sarah Miller coming out today.

00:48:57.460 Later on today as well, I did finally manage to arrange a call from Pastor Art Poloski from jail.

00:49:03.620 He has been going through a lot.

00:49:05.720 So both of those will be coming out today.

00:49:07.980 But I spoke with some of our legal counsels trying to see if anyone in Canadian history

00:49:13.500 had been persecuted to the extent of Pastor Art Poloski.

00:49:17.480 We couldn't come up with anyone.

00:49:19.740 He is very likely one of the most persecuted men in the history of Canada.

00:49:22.860 100% certainly under COVID-19.

00:49:25.520 No one has spent more time in jail.

00:49:27.360 No one has endured quite what he has endured despite other pastors being arrested.

00:49:34.700 Heartbreaking.

00:49:35.380 Absolutely devastating what's happening to him and his family.

00:49:37.700 He is by every metric a political prisoner.

00:49:40.200 He is being held now, and this is not me suggesting off the record or unofficially that he's being held because of what he said.

00:49:48.700 The predominant charges against him now are for what he said.

00:49:54.300 They keep adding new charges.

00:49:56.540 They keep bringing up charges from a year and a half ago where the Crown is now providing more.

00:50:02.280 They're providing, as Sarah says, their best evidence on that case.

00:50:05.840 They are absolutely dogpiling charges on Pastor Artur Poloski.

00:50:09.820 And I want to remind you, whatever you think about Pastor Artur Poloski, he'll be the first person to say,

00:50:15.460 while in person he's very sort of calm and civil, his preaching style is not for everyone, not by any stretch of the imagination.

00:50:22.420 But Pastor Artur Poloski nearly lost his son when his son was born.

00:50:26.900 They said his son was not going to survive.

00:50:28.780 They said his son was not going to make it.

00:50:30.640 And Pastor Artur at this time, not a pastor, said, listen, God, if you save my son, I will give the rest of my life to you no matter what.

00:50:36.960 He made that promise.

00:50:38.440 So he is utterly persistent that he will feed the homeless, that he will open his church to everyone, no matter the cost, because that's a commitment that he made.

00:50:46.020 He wants to be left alone, and he wants to do those things.

00:50:49.220 But for daring to feed the homeless, I understand in contravention of COVID guidelines, but for feeding the homeless and opening the church, he's now been in jail for weeks.

00:50:58.660 And this is his fifth arrest and his third incarceration for committing the heinous crimes of feeding the homeless and of opening his church.

00:51:09.580 Per his legal counsel.

00:51:11.280 Sorry, and sorry, and speaking out against the government, which is your right as a Canadian citizen to do so.

00:51:16.580 Well, and the latest charge stems from, and to be clear, the truckers who were blockading the Coutts border were not charged under Critical Infrastructure Defense Act.

00:51:29.140 They weren't charged.

00:51:30.640 Pastor Artur Pawlowski was there for one afternoon and preached to them and said, stand by your convictions and hold the line.

00:51:38.300 Those were his words.

00:51:39.380 He was just encouraging them and preaching them.

00:51:41.120 They charged him, and they're basically pegging the whole thing on him as though he's the one who was critical in organizing all this.

00:51:47.640 He went for one afternoon.

00:51:49.340 So for speaking against the government, for criticizing the government, he is being held as a political prisoner in Alberta.

00:51:57.340 That is the case.

00:51:58.520 That is the situation.

00:51:59.540 He's been held in isolation.

00:52:01.500 He was released from isolation briefly.

00:52:04.160 And I have to tell you this, and the family is extremely concerned, and they want this out there.

00:52:08.380 And again, I'm going to say that this is an allegation, and this is alleged for the time being.

00:52:13.160 But some of the other inmates that were stuck with him, he was put in a cell with inmates and allowed into general population.

00:52:18.420 They came to him unprovoked.

00:52:21.040 They're sharing this with us.

00:52:22.560 They came to Artur and said the guard suggested their lives might get better if he got roughed up a little bit.

00:52:29.340 And then the reason they're not allowed certain privileges.

00:52:31.760 And again, this is just what we're hearing.

00:52:33.640 Artur said that the inmates told him this.

00:52:35.640 So this is not confirmed.

00:52:36.940 But they're saying that they've been told that the reason they're not granted certain privileges is because of the protesters.

00:52:43.840 So he was taken out of isolation briefly.

00:52:46.700 Within a couple hours of being removed from isolation, the inmates said that this is what had been suggested to them.

00:52:52.160 And when they refused, and per Artur Pawlewski, they refused.

00:52:55.820 They said, we're not beating up a clergyman. 0.99

00:52:57.540 Are you insane? 0.96

00:52:58.800 They then moved him back into isolation. 0.98

00:53:00.880 So they exposed him to the general population, implied that their lack of quality of life was his fault.

00:53:06.700 And when they refused to do anything, they moved him back into isolation.

00:53:10.400 He has been struggling.

00:53:12.140 He was fasting for a while.

00:53:13.520 He is eating now because they were trying to make it seem as though he was making a political point and needed to be committed because he wasn't eating.

00:53:20.900 So he's back to eating now.

00:53:22.380 But he has been suffering.

00:53:23.900 He misses his family dearly, as you can imagine.

00:53:26.760 He's very much alone.

00:53:27.700 But he's serving as a pastor to these people.

00:53:31.600 One of the guys, even, he was teaching him some self-defense he relayed to us because Pastor Artur has a long history of self-defense.

00:53:37.680 But the man has been through so much over two years.

00:53:40.080 His family has been through so much.

00:53:41.820 And all of it stems ultimately from what Sarah Miller says at most should have been a $1,000 ticket.

00:53:47.180 Like, they just keep stockpiling charges.

00:53:50.000 And the thing is, other people are attending these protests.

00:53:52.440 They're getting nothing.

00:53:53.300 They're not even getting a ticket.

00:53:54.440 He's getting time in jail.

00:53:56.060 They're pursuing him and targeting him.

00:53:59.040 And it is not just or even application of the law.

00:54:02.260 Fortunately, our viewers, you guys have been so absolutely incredible.

00:54:05.900 And you've been following Pastor Artur Pawlowski's story today.

00:54:08.740 Do continue to watch today because we will have two videos coming out.

00:54:12.300 The full breakdown of all the charges right from the get-go from COVID-19 on Pastor Artur Pawlowski

00:54:18.520 since Sarah Miller of JSS Barristers has been protecting him.

00:54:21.680 But also the call from Pastor Artur Pawlowski.

00:54:24.380 But thanks to your generous donations, Pastor Artur, he isn't being bullied around.

00:54:28.760 And he isn't unable to afford an exceptional lawyer.

00:54:32.620 He has a team working for him, a team working to get him out, some exceptional lawyers.

00:54:36.720 And all of that is only possible.

00:54:39.140 He couldn't have fought this fight alone.

00:54:40.600 He says that all the time.

00:54:41.720 Thanks to your donations at saveartur.com.

00:54:44.960 There's been so much going on.

00:54:46.740 There's the war.

00:54:47.920 There's been the blockades.

00:54:49.740 There's been mandates dropping.

00:54:50.880 Despite all of that, we cannot forget that Pastor Artur Pawlowski was fighting this

00:54:55.460 from the get-go and predicting everything that was going to happen rather accurately.

00:54:59.840 And he has suffered because of calling this out.

00:55:02.540 We cannot forget about him now because he is still behind bars.

00:55:06.200 And he will be behind bars at least until March 10th, 11th,

00:55:09.940 unless we're successful in making a bail appeal.

00:55:13.360 So extremely troubling.

00:55:14.880 Right now, we have no idea.

00:55:16.760 He's locked behind bars indefinitely.

00:55:18.800 So go to saveartur.com, make a donation.

00:55:20.800 You do get a tax receipt if you make a donation at saveartur.com.

00:55:24.400 All those funds go to the Democracy Fund and are used to hire his lawyer.

00:55:28.380 So go to saveartur.com and let Artur know you're standing in solidarity with him.

00:55:33.840 Now, it's not just our Canadian viewers who are standing in solidarity with Pastor Art.

00:55:38.920 Our friend, Yankee Pollack, was at CPAC in Florida over the weekend just working his butt off.

00:55:48.640 And he ran into Senator Josh Hawley, who has previously written a letter saying,

00:55:56.300 hey, maybe we should consider putting Canada on a religious freedom watch list alongside Iraq 1.00

00:56:02.600 and some of the more authoritarian regimes of the world like China.

00:56:06.160 Because at the time, we had Pastor Art in jail.

00:56:09.740 We had Tim Stevens in jail.

00:56:11.760 We had James Coates in jail.

00:56:15.300 We had churches closed in...

00:56:18.160 No, they did close a church in Saskatchewan.

00:56:22.500 Full Gospel Outreach, they closed churches in Ontario,

00:56:29.980 attacked churches in Manitoba,

00:56:31.820 did like a check stop style attack on some churches in the Maritimes.

00:56:38.080 Also, you know, they're just pastors everywhere that were ending up in jail

00:56:43.520 when they refused to close their churches.

00:56:45.340 Sorry, go ahead.

00:56:46.280 Also, and just to your point, this will feed into your point.

00:56:49.080 This is just on the after notes.

00:56:53.280 The eve of all of this was dozens of churches burnt down and dozens more vandalized.

00:56:59.700 So the overall sentiment of Canada and the prime minister saying it's understandable

00:57:05.160 or he understands why people burnt down churches.

00:57:08.040 So this is an extension of that existing categorical persecution

00:57:13.020 against Christian churches that's taking place in the country.

00:57:16.200 And it was followed up by the targeted persecution of pastors.

00:57:19.380 But sorry, carry on.

00:57:20.640 Right.

00:57:21.340 And I don't want to forget Pastor Phil Hutchins from his tabernacle.

00:57:25.780 I really didn't want to forget him on the list because he did spend seven days in jail

00:57:30.600 or almost seven days in jail in New Brunswick.

00:57:33.980 But Yankee hustled. 0.61

00:57:36.980 He put a wiggle in it and he caught up to Josh Hawley.

00:57:40.640 And he asked him a question about Pastor Art back in jail.

00:57:46.240 Let's roll it.

00:57:47.520 A few months ago, you came out about Canada arresting pastors.

00:57:52.280 There's Pastor Arthur Kowalski has been in jail for two weeks now again.

00:57:57.080 Yeah.

00:57:57.820 Is there anything you think we could call Canada out on that?

00:58:01.320 I know you did a letter about that in the past.

00:58:04.240 Yeah.

00:58:04.540 I think one of the things is that Canada needs to –

00:58:08.420 the United States keeps a designation of folks who are religious liberty violators,

00:58:14.020 nations that are religious liberty violators.

00:58:15.780 I've called for Canada to be put on that list.

00:58:17.840 And I think that we need to consider all of the options that are available for that.

00:58:21.060 I need to go in here.

00:58:21.820 Yeah, of course.

00:58:22.480 Yeah, I will.

00:58:23.120 Yeah, you know.

00:58:24.980 Do you know what?

00:58:25.640 We got to come – we have a coming.

00:58:27.600 We deserve to be on that list.

00:58:29.360 We do.

00:58:30.040 Yeah.

00:58:30.480 We do.

00:58:30.780 I can't think of them locking up pastors like this in Hong Kong.

00:58:33.840 I really can't.

00:58:34.720 No.

00:58:35.460 No.

00:58:35.880 Well, and the fact of the matter is like Jason Kenney,

00:58:39.240 even being echoed by the CBC chefs, television chefs, whatever they are,

00:58:45.180 they're like, oh, everything is opened and we're the freedom champions and look at us go.

00:58:50.500 I'm like, let Pastor Arthur Pawlowski go.

00:58:53.500 There's this mentality and it's so sad to see that the judicial process has fallen so far.

00:59:00.740 There is a categorical bias.

00:59:02.360 The fact Tyler Shandro was appointed the justice minister is insane.

00:59:06.660 It's a disgrace. 0.66

00:59:07.400 It's a disgrace, a categorical disgrace.

00:59:10.280 And I do have a comment coming from Pastor Arthur Pawlowski on that as well.

00:59:14.760 But their conduct is categorically disgraceful.

00:59:19.320 And they have been persecuting Pastor Arthur Pawlowski.

00:59:23.020 Just if you hate Pastor Arthur, if you're one of the hate viewers who are watching this,

00:59:28.500 just stop for a second and objectively think about what he actually did.

00:59:33.580 Just stop and think about the actual actions of Pastor Arthur Pawlowski.

00:59:37.820 And ask yourself, should he be the most persecuted man throughout COVID-19 and certainly potentially

00:59:42.960 throughout Canadian history as an individual for feeding the homeless and opening his church

00:59:47.640 to people in Mead? 0.99

00:59:49.780 This is ridiculous. 0.96

00:59:50.740 Jason Kenney and these other people don't get to pretend like everything's honky dory. 0.81

00:59:54.380 Like we said, people have not got their jobs back.

00:59:56.960 People's lives have been ruined.

00:59:58.280 And Pastor Arthur Pawlowski still sits behind bars.

01:00:02.560 This thing is far from done and over with just because the majority of the restrictions

01:00:06.240 are being dropped coming up this week.

01:00:09.460 It's not done.

01:00:11.120 No.

01:00:12.040 And you said honky dory, but we can't honk in this country.

01:00:16.160 We're not allowed to honk.

01:00:18.040 We can't honk in Edmonton.

01:00:19.280 They're giving out tickets.

01:00:20.160 Honky dory is a white supremacist thing because there's an H. 0.52

01:00:22.940 I forgot.

01:00:23.680 Sorry.

01:00:24.460 Right.

01:00:25.160 No H words.

01:00:26.300 No words that start with H.

01:00:29.240 Okay.

01:00:29.720 Let's get to some of these chats because we've got a few rolling in and we are already at

01:00:33.640 11 here in the West.

01:00:35.960 John T.

01:00:37.320 Singus gives us a buck.

01:00:39.280 Before my father died in December 2020, he used to get physically ill and gag when Tam,

01:00:43.780 Teresa Tam, would appear on TV.

01:00:45.620 Sometimes I think that her face caused him more discomfort than his cancer.

01:00:51.700 Harper will always be my PM. 0.55

01:00:53.420 That's harsh.

01:00:54.640 Anyway, five bucks.

01:00:58.580 I'm not for everyone either.

01:01:00.720 Gives us five bucks.

01:01:01.740 I wonder how much Tam invested in mask and vax shares.

01:01:05.500 I don't know.

01:01:06.260 I don't think she's got a conflict of interest there.

01:01:09.660 However, I do know that the federal government is heavily invested in a huge vaccine buy-in.

01:01:17.620 Princess JT is all vocal on Russia, but I would bet money that if China hit Taiwan, JT would 1.00

01:01:22.400 be silent telling everyone not to criticize Xi.

01:01:25.720 You know, that's a great point.

01:01:27.500 We didn't hear a lot about the treatment of Hong Kong from the federal government when

01:01:37.980 China just walked in and took it and crushed, you know, the tradition of freedom and democracy

01:01:44.140 they had there.

01:01:45.440 We didn't hear a ton about it.

01:01:48.620 And it's interesting to see the difference between what's happening now with Ukraine.

01:01:53.160 And don't get me wrong, Canada has, we're the third largest place where people are of

01:02:01.200 Ukrainian descent outside of Ukraine and Russia.

01:02:04.500 The next place is Canada.

01:02:06.100 So I get the ties, why we, why people would support Ukraine.

01:02:14.700 And I myself, I'm anti-invasion, which is why I was anti what happened to Hong Kong.

01:02:19.500 But we didn't hear a lot from the feds on that, did we?

01:02:21.720 Well, and it's interesting now, it'll, it'll raise some interesting questions that, that

01:02:26.080 China is at least maybe not entirely endorsed, but criticized some of the Europe, the West,

01:02:32.020 the United States involvement in the Ukraine in a seemingly pro-Russia statement when all

01:02:37.640 these progressive bodies who tend to be rallying behind China and NATO, the United Nations,

01:02:43.260 Canada, they're like, they tend to be just pushing China's interests.

01:02:48.120 They're very anti-Russia.

01:02:49.680 And then China came out saying that they're kind of pro-Russia.

01:02:53.280 So that could shift things.

01:02:54.340 It's an interesting dynamic.

01:02:55.980 So we shall see.

01:02:57.720 It reminds me of that meme where that, that cartoon guy is going to push two buttons.

01:03:01.520 And it's like, am I bad because China took Hong Kong?

01:03:06.680 Am I bad because Russia took Ukraine?

01:03:09.480 And it's, the liberals can't choose, can they?

01:03:13.500 They can only do one thing, we talked about it.

01:03:15.960 Right.

01:03:16.340 They can only care about one issue at one time.

01:03:18.080 They can, it's, what did I say in the meeting?

01:03:20.880 It's the equivalent, I forget what I said.

01:03:23.940 Anyways, Harper will always be my fan. 0.84

01:03:25.520 It was very insightful and funny.

01:03:27.600 I know.

01:03:27.980 And then I totally forgot.

01:03:29.620 Good thing I have a lot of those moments in a day.

01:03:33.780 Gives us four bucks.

01:03:34.840 Socialist Ford is quick to call Putin a thug, but didn't Ford sign off on Toronto cops to tackle

01:03:39.460 people holding a flag or questioning him recently?

01:03:42.320 I'm doing the same as Princess Justin Trudeau.

01:03:44.960 I think our head of video, Efron, has some video on his Twitter feed.

01:03:51.320 It's his pinned tweet of the mistreatment of protesters by the Toronto cops under the jurisdiction

01:03:59.220 of Mayor John Tory.

01:04:02.180 And since Toronto is in Ontario, as many of you may know, maybe Doug Ford would have to

01:04:08.200 say something about that, but he didn't.

01:04:09.600 He just called those people yahoos.

01:04:10.880 I wonder if Liberal Ford will manage people to give him a minority in June.

01:04:17.620 Princess JT, I cannot see many taxpayers rushing to help Canadian cops these days.

01:04:21.860 Yeah, it's a real shame because there's a lot of good cops out there. 0.97

01:04:24.100 It's just the bad cops trading on the good cops reputation and they're parasites. 0.99

01:04:28.060 And I hate it. 0.99

01:04:30.160 Lisa Proust gives us five bucks.

01:04:32.620 Hi, Lisa.

01:04:33.680 Thank you, Sheila and Adam.

01:04:34.720 You are both a fantastic pairing.

01:04:36.380 Lots of gratitude for your hard work and passion for truth and integrity.

01:04:40.300 Well, I appreciate that very much.

01:04:42.700 Harper will always be my PM because it's two bucks.

01:04:44.940 Canada police in 2030 will be what Beijing cops are now. 0.99

01:04:48.200 Just a bunch of cowards with zero courage and zero respect following orders. 0.93

01:04:51.820 Ford JT or Dan Andrews should be the last to preach to Moscow. 0.93

01:04:57.520 Ottawa cops are getting $346.5 million in 2022, but they'll probably do nothing for the community

01:05:04.220 once again.

01:05:04.800 I do not remember the last time that service made a huge difference yet asking for more

01:05:10.480 each year.

01:05:11.060 I'm not against properly funding the cops, but with properly funding the cops comes accountability.

01:05:19.060 And I'm not seeing the accountability side of the equation of funding the cops.

01:05:23.780 I'm not, I'm not a defund the police kind of person.

01:05:27.040 Yeah.

01:05:27.520 Maybe just de-horse the police.

01:05:29.180 We'll just take their horses away. 1.00

01:05:32.000 Yeah.

01:05:33.180 Yeah.

01:05:33.620 I'm just un-horse them.

01:05:36.440 Lisa gives us three bucks. 0.99

01:05:38.820 Rape. 0.99

01:05:39.920 Haven't you insulted the truckers enough?

01:05:41.800 I love the truckers forever.

01:05:43.460 Thank you, Rebel, for always reporting in the most objective way.

01:05:46.400 Oh, Lisa, I'm definitely not objective, but I appreciate that anyways.

01:05:50.220 But I'm honest.

01:05:50.880 And as we've covered, I'm entirely objective.

01:05:52.960 Yeah, Adam's objective.

01:05:55.160 As we've covered, I'm entirely objective on all matters, always to the T.

01:05:59.740 I'm a raging conservative.

01:06:01.200 Yep.

01:06:02.500 B. Bappas gives us a buck.

01:06:05.980 The House of Commons has passed Bill S-233 and is now before the Senate to come up with

01:06:11.720 a framework for implementation.

01:06:13.240 Okay.

01:06:13.500 We'll have to look into that.

01:06:15.300 King 7734 gives us a buck.

01:06:18.860 Hold on.

01:06:19.340 When you just went on about cops coming from all over, ever think that it was one of those

01:06:23.480 cops who pepper sprayed and not Ottawa cops?

01:06:26.200 It was mostly RCMP who were coming in.

01:06:33.540 Yeah.

01:06:33.980 And again, when we were criticizing Ottawa cops, it was sort of, yeah.

01:06:37.920 They're under the direction of the Ottawa police chief.

01:06:41.240 So when the cops came from all over the country, they ended up under the direction of the Ottawa

01:06:45.140 police chief.

01:06:45.780 So they are de facto Ottawa police at the time.

01:06:49.060 But we do know the tramplers are Toronto mounted unit cops.

01:06:56.960 Okay.

01:06:57.740 Harper will always be my PM. 0.55

01:07:00.040 Gives us a buck.

01:07:00.600 I was talking to my mate about his weekend with the NYPD and calls he did in three nights.

01:07:06.740 He joked that most Canadian cops are probably too scared to spend time with the New York

01:07:10.440 PD as they act tough on unarmed truckers.

01:07:13.500 Lisa says, Sheila, what do you have against avocado toast?

01:07:17.480 I don't have anything against avocado toast.

01:07:19.320 Actually, I really like avocados and I plan to eat them all before I start Lent because

01:07:23.060 I have two bags of them upstairs and I fast for Lent.

01:07:27.820 So I got to get all the like bacon and avocado out of the house before it causes me undue temptation.

01:07:33.520 You're invited to my home for one with pink champagne anytime.

01:07:37.060 It's delicious.

01:07:37.600 I just think the people who pay too much money to smear an oily vegetable or maybe it's a fruit on toast have no right lecturing people who wear coveralls for a living about freedom.

01:07:51.360 That's all.

01:07:51.980 And what it means to live your life and work hard and be left alone.

01:07:55.820 And Mark gives us a buck.

01:08:00.240 I've seen the anti-protests set off the smoke bombs.

01:08:04.420 I was 12 feet away from it on Saturday.

01:08:06.400 Shout out to AD.

01:08:07.480 Well, there you go.

01:08:11.240 Very good.

01:08:11.800 I'm not surprised.

01:08:12.680 That was our immediate thought because we were at the back of the march and we saw smoke go off off to the side of the march.

01:08:18.840 And our immediate thought I was with Sid and we're like, well, what what did someone do to the march?

01:08:23.420 The thought never even crossed our heads that someone in the march did this.

01:08:26.660 It's who did this.

01:08:29.220 Yeah.

01:08:30.540 B Bapas gives us a buck.

01:08:32.080 Saskatoon City Council is openly refusing to lift mandates and restrictions.

01:08:36.080 You know what?

01:08:36.940 Edmonton City Council has agreed to the same thing.

01:08:40.260 They're not lifting the mask mandate.

01:08:43.940 I'm not altogether clear why.

01:08:45.820 I guess they set their own target for what daily coronavirus infections have to be.

01:08:53.360 So I guess all the bedroom communities and suburbs, thank you for your business, because that's where it's all going to go.

01:09:00.000 And so if I were an Edmonton business owner, I would be raising holy hell about this, because all of your staff and customers, you're going to have people who want to work in the bedroom communities. 0.99

01:09:12.280 And there are a ton of them in the Edmonton area and people are going to do their shopping there.

01:09:17.140 Like when Edmonton and Sherwood Park are right, they're divided by a highway.

01:09:22.040 Tell me how that's science.

01:09:23.740 But you could just go across the highway and live your life free.

01:09:29.280 But Amarjeet Sohi, the mayor of Edmonton, is Justin Trudeau's former natural resources minister, can get a pipeline bill of his life dependent on it.

01:09:35.940 And now he's doing Trudeau's bidding by reinforcing the COVID lockdown that Trudeau refuses to let go of.

01:09:42.740 Wasn't there like a component to the reopening process that municipalities couldn't overrule?

01:09:47.820 Like within law, I think it's called Paramount.

01:09:50.340 Like the larger health jurisdiction has say over that.

01:09:55.000 I thought they implemented something where the cities, which is why GOT Gondek sort of reluctantly went along, tried to have a vote anyways.

01:10:00.920 But I thought that there was some safeguard in place against that.

01:10:04.940 What I do know is, yeah, what I do know is the moral of the story, I think, for a lot of people over the course of the pandemic has been that your municipal council counts.

01:10:19.540 We should be actively involved in making sure that there are normal people running your town, because it ended up being a patchwork quilt of restrictions all the time.

01:10:33.520 And it didn't really follow any sort of rhyme or reason.

01:10:36.640 I don't want to say science because that'll get us kicked off on YouTube and we're still there.

01:10:40.360 But it didn't follow any rhyme or reason.

01:10:43.480 So it was like one road would be what on one side, one sort of form of restriction.

01:10:49.080 And over there, it was completely different.

01:10:51.400 And it was because some municipalities were more sane than, well, Edmonton, I guess.

01:11:00.140 And so as conservatives, if you want to be free, you got to get involved on politics at the local level.

01:11:06.620 I know it's easy to focus on the big pictures of, you know, provincial and federal, but really those municipal politicians, those have been the ones controlling your life for two years.

01:11:17.400 Well, and I think progressive activists recognize that people aren't as engaged on a municipal level.

01:11:25.340 So they're pushing and spending hard in those municipal areas.

01:11:29.160 And that's why you can see an entirely conservative province where they're largely conservative province where the two city hubs have extremely progressive mayors because they launched concerted efforts within those areas to garner that power.

01:11:42.340 So good point, Sheila, and get involved on that level as well.

01:11:45.940 Thank you.

01:11:47.400 Harper will always be my PM. 0.55

01:11:48.940 Gives us a buck.

01:11:49.580 Makes an excellent point.

01:11:51.620 Wonder how many people that CBC Julie helped to feed. 0.99

01:11:55.440 I'm guessing zero as she claims to love feeding people. 1.00

01:11:58.160 Doubt she ever ran a street kitchen like Art and David do.

01:12:02.000 Yeah.

01:12:02.580 I bet Art and David's food's better too.

01:12:07.020 AMT60 gives us a buck.

01:12:08.260 Doctors are lying about VAX exemptions.

01:12:10.520 I know someone who got the first jab because of a work mandate and the doctor initially said his medical problems were from the VAX.

01:12:15.840 Doctors refuse to write an exemption.

01:12:17.700 Doctors are being bullied all over the place by their governing bodies.

01:12:23.060 They're threatened with having their careers ruined.

01:12:26.180 So there's that too.

01:12:28.480 Annalisa 1964 gives us 10 bucks.

01:12:30.500 I know I say this all the time.

01:12:32.680 Now, Annalisa is a true believer, actually.

01:12:35.400 Big David Menzies fan.

01:12:37.060 Big, big David Menzies fan.

01:12:38.460 She says, I know I say this all the time, but I love the rebel.

01:12:41.780 I'm happy I'm home today where my internet works and I can watch the show and give a donation.

01:12:45.640 Keep up the awesome work.

01:12:46.540 Well, thanks so much.

01:12:47.360 Slaves to the New Age gives us a buck.

01:12:51.960 I was at the protest in Calgary on Saturday and it was the counter protesters that lit the smoke bomb.

01:12:56.320 I had the footage of it on my phone.

01:12:58.360 The smoke made me sick.

01:13:00.060 You know, if you have that job.

01:13:01.700 Send it to me.

01:13:02.880 Yes.

01:13:03.840 Adam at rebelnews.com.

01:13:06.000 Adam at rebelnews.com.

01:13:07.320 Send it to Adam.

01:13:07.960 Let's debunk this.

01:13:08.880 Yeah.

01:13:09.680 Harper will always be my PM. 0.55

01:13:11.780 Gives us a buck.

01:13:12.280 What's happening in Ukraine is unfortunate but not surprising as the U.S. and Canada are just weak.

01:13:15.940 Leaders list jokes in their current state.

01:13:18.240 Can't see Putin seeing Joe or Justin as a threat to get in his way.

01:13:21.960 That's exactly why I did it.

01:13:22.940 That's why he took Crimea in 2014 when Joe Biden was VP.

01:13:29.440 That's why, you know, China is already looking at Taiwan with lust in its eyes because, you know, there's no peace through power this time around.

01:13:41.920 Tack Jibes sends us five bucks.

01:13:45.820 I don't see a chat, but that's great.

01:13:47.560 Harper will always be my PM. 0.55

01:13:48.940 Gives us a buck.

01:13:50.060 Wonder what side commission Joey or Justin get from buying oil from Dubai or Russia.

01:13:59.920 Lots of donations coming into that Trudeau Foundation.

01:14:05.100 Yeah.

01:14:05.740 Unrelated, of course.

01:14:06.820 Kat, BRBA gives us 50 bucks.

01:14:12.720 That's very generous.

01:14:13.780 Take down the Trudy's and Trudy diaper wipers.

01:14:17.980 Yeah.

01:14:19.200 B Bapas gives us a buck.

01:14:20.980 Don't worry about the cost of avocados, a semi-tropical fruit.

01:14:24.220 I grow my own.

01:14:25.960 That's when people are really going to start to care about the supply chain is when the people who love their avocado and toast have to pay $10 for an avocado.

01:14:35.100 And then, because they take a bus, they don't care.

01:14:39.800 But eventually, eventually, it's going to hit them.

01:14:43.120 And eventually, they're going to be mugged by reality.

01:14:47.020 Here's hoping.

01:14:50.500 Stephen D. James, five bucks.

01:14:53.000 If the mask mandates are lifted, then only the diehard mandate supporters will be wearing them.

01:14:58.280 Then we will see how many people actually support wearing masks.

01:15:01.040 The truth will be even more exposed.

01:15:02.680 This is why I've talked about this before.

01:15:05.160 That's our last chat, by the way.

01:15:06.580 But this is why I love the town of La Crete, Alberta.

01:15:08.940 It's this little town literally at the end of the road.

01:15:11.920 Way northwestern Alberta.

01:15:14.080 It's 14 hours round trip from the capital city driving at 110 kilometers an hour.

01:15:20.620 3,500 people live there.

01:15:22.400 Largely Mennonite, but not entirely.

01:15:24.380 For example, Grace Life Church, the mandate resisting church in Edmonton, they have a sister church up there.

01:15:30.220 And basically, they decided, both as a local government, but also the business community, which is strange.

01:15:39.600 So the local government, the chamber of commerce, the people and the churches.

01:15:42.980 So what usually makes up a community, they decided we're going to forge our own way forward.

01:15:50.940 Thankfully, I think because they are largely religious, also largely because they're rural and so far that you have to rely on your neighbors for things because civilization is far away. 1.00

01:16:03.700 But also because they are a 14-hour round trip from heavy-handed enforcement.

01:16:08.400 They decided, we're not doing this.

01:16:10.640 You want to wear a mask?

01:16:11.580 Great.

01:16:12.160 You don't want to wear a mask?

01:16:13.360 Great.

01:16:14.080 We're not enforcing any of the restrictions on churches, businesses.

01:16:17.860 The local community didn't require vax passes when the federal, or sorry, when the provincial government brought them in.

01:16:25.460 They even went one step further.

01:16:26.740 They said, if you want to do business in McKenzie County, there will be no such thing as a vaccine mandate.

01:16:35.200 And they said that to ATCO, so the major gas company, and that's northwestern Alberta.

01:16:39.000 There's lots of gas up there.

01:16:41.140 They said, not only can you not do...

01:16:43.600 Yeah, this is it.

01:16:45.540 So not only can you not do business with the county, and McKenzie County is enormous.

01:16:52.320 I think it's as big as Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.

01:16:56.460 It's huge.

01:16:57.900 They said, you can't not just do business with the local government.

01:17:01.980 You can't do business within the bounds of everything that we're in charge of.

01:17:06.040 Vaccine uptake there was only 35%.

01:17:09.000 Why?

01:17:10.260 Because that's what vaccine uptake looks like without coercion, without coercion from the government,

01:17:16.080 without being able to go about your everyday life, go for dinner, go to the gym, go play sports, go to work.

01:17:24.440 They took all of that out, and that's what vaccine uptake would really mean without coercion.

01:17:30.860 So that's why we must love, cherish, and protect La Crete at all costs.

01:17:34.700 They are the control group for the entire country.

01:17:39.280 I think we're all caught up now.

01:17:43.600 Should we wrap up the show, Adam?

01:17:46.080 No, I'll just sit here for a while.

01:17:48.180 Let's just sit here and stare at each other.

01:17:52.840 No, that's a good note.

01:17:54.120 You know, the people, the one last thing I will say is, over the past couple of months,

01:17:57.900 when you go somewhere, you don't have a mask on, people are smiling at each other.

01:18:01.660 I've seen people whose workplace forces them to be masked up, wear the face guard, everything like that.

01:18:07.320 The amount of those people that say it's nice to see your face, or it's nice to see your smile,

01:18:11.720 that's far more indicative of the real world.

01:18:14.600 Like we've talked about throughout this entire stream, there's the ivory tower people,

01:18:18.280 and then there's the vast majority just trying to live their lives.

01:18:21.160 And we're happy to tell the other side of the story on behalf of those folks.

01:18:24.200 Yeah, as long as the mainstream media remains terrible, we will always have a job.

01:18:30.200 And I wonder if they'll ever figure that out.

01:18:32.800 Anyway, I want to thank Adam very much for joining me on the stream today.

01:18:37.840 I want to thank Mr. Producer and the rest of the team back in Toronto,

01:18:41.160 all the people who work behind the scenes to put the show out.

01:18:44.340 I want to thank everybody who tuned in on all those platforms.

01:18:47.220 Boy, there was a lot.

01:18:48.180 YouTube, Odyssey, Rumble, Super U, Getter, Twitter, but not Instagram, because no thanks.

01:18:55.920 And I want to thank everybody who pitched in to make a donation to help us do the independent journalism that we do.

01:19:01.880 We couldn't do it without your support.

01:19:04.560 I'm not, no, it's me.

01:19:06.280 I'm on the show tomorrow, and David is on the show tomorrow,

01:19:08.920 back here at the same time, in the same place.

01:19:11.740 We'll see everybody tomorrow, hopefully.

01:19:13.640 And as David Menzies always says, stay sane.

01:19:17.220 Thank you very much for that introduction.

01:19:25.340 Honored guests, ladies and gentlemen, friends.

01:19:29.160 Our beautiful European continent is facing the rise of a new empire.

01:19:34.100 An empire ruled by bureaucrats in Brussels with the proud capitals of our nation states

01:19:39.920 reduced to little more than administrative centers for the provinces of the European Union.

01:19:46.040 Before I continue, I would like to thank the organizers of this conference hour for creating an international podium

01:19:53.200 during which politicians, scholars, and those with a love for sovereignty

01:19:58.140 can discuss the superiority of our nation states over the bureaucracy of Brussels,

01:20:03.320 a place where we can share ideas for the future and try to build a network of parties that respect the diversity of cultures and languages in Europe

01:20:13.740 while passionately defending their own.

01:20:16.440 A place for those of us who understand that in the European context, one size fits none.

01:20:26.800 One only has to visit the buildings of power of the European Union in Brussels to understand what is at stake.

01:20:33.340 The buildings, like any aesthetics, have no discernible identity, no soul and no beauty.

01:20:41.560 This is intentional and is also symbolic for the ultimate goal of the European Union,

01:20:47.400 to strip nation states of their unique histories, of their languages and of their cultures,

01:20:52.540 to uproot citizens from any sense of home in order to erase any sentiment that our sovereignty is worth fighting for.

01:21:02.460 Local identities are to be replaced with a contrived hegemonic narrative of a European identity

01:21:08.820 founded on the imagined superiority of the EU over nation states in providing peace, safety and a stable future.

01:21:16.960 However, this pipe dream of a singular European identity comes at a price.

01:21:25.120 And it is up to the citizens of our once proud nation states to decide whether it is a price that we are willing to pay.

01:21:32.880 We need to decide whether we are going to abandon hope and leave,

01:21:37.780 or whether we are ready to dig a trench and fight for liberty in Europe.

01:21:42.480 For the price that the EU is asking of us is our freedom.

01:21:48.540 While a hegemonic European identity might still take years to achieve and to forge,

01:21:54.420 the speed of the centralization of power to Brussels has increased at a rapid pace over the past two years

01:21:59.980 under the guise of a so-called pandemic.

01:22:03.360 A narrow window of opportunity, as it was called by Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum,

01:22:08.240 an organization that has been under the increasing influence of the Chinese Communist Party

01:22:13.280 and that is seeking to roll out a neo-communist agenda across the world through its Great Reset.

01:22:20.120 Under the guise of a contrived and permanent state of crisis, like COVID and climate change,

01:22:26.420 it seeks a total transfer of power from citizens to a technocratic elite.

01:22:31.740 It seeks a world in which the state will monitor and control every aspect of their citizens' lives.

01:22:39.340 It is a world without democracy, a world without privacy.

01:22:43.680 For the EU, this pandemic was an opportunity, the perfect excuse,

01:22:50.560 to enact a plan in line with the Great Reset,

01:22:53.380 a plan that they have been working on for many years.

01:22:56.240 It is the European digital identity,

01:23:01.240 a step towards superseding the national governments

01:23:03.840 in defending the interests of citizens into a European whole.

01:23:08.200 In response to this pandemic and under the guise of purportedly protecting the safety of their citizens,

01:23:14.160 the European Union rolled out the European Green Pass and individual member states to QR codes.

01:23:19.840 Only with this code, in some countries, that was only obtainable through vaccination,

01:23:26.800 were citizens allowed to take part in social life.

01:23:30.100 But as it turned out, these QR codes had little to no effect on stopping the transmission of COVID-19.

01:23:37.280 So why were countries holding on to these QR codes

01:23:40.660 if it was not in the interest of public health?

01:23:44.840 The European Council answered this question themselves

01:23:48.220 and they said that the design of the Green Pass

01:23:51.180 was merely a first version of what will become a complete digital wallet.

01:23:56.600 In the next few months, they will be working with member states to further roll out this app.

01:24:01.980 The European Green Pass has therefore been little more than a first step

01:24:05.580 to developing a European digital ID.

01:24:08.940 But what exactly is this digital ID?

01:24:11.900 Now, a digital identity document is a central location

01:24:14.780 for storing all kinds of personal data,

01:24:17.020 which can be used by governments and companies

01:24:19.820 and can trace every Internet user to only one person.

01:24:24.060 This means the end of online anonymity.

01:24:29.860 And this is also the loss of privacy.

01:24:33.180 It means that every payment, every comment, every tweet,

01:24:36.520 and even your medical details can be linked to you as a person.

01:24:40.040 It also means that companies can set conditions for access to their services based on this data.

01:24:47.620 The Green Pass and the QR codes, which were implemented in countries across Europe,

01:24:51.880 gave you access to social life only if you were vaccinated

01:24:55.240 or, as happened more recently, if you have received the booster shot.

01:24:59.060 Your freedom, therefore, depended on your compliance, on your good behavior.

01:25:05.480 But this system is not new and already exists in China.

01:25:09.740 Not only did we import their lockdowns,

01:25:12.100 we are now also bringing the Chinese social credit system to Europe.

01:25:16.500 Depending on their good behavior and, therefore, their social credit score,

01:25:20.220 Chinese citizens have access to things like public transport and restaurants.

01:25:23.780 Their score also determines whether they can go on holiday or not

01:25:28.000 and which facilities they have access to.

01:25:30.640 However, behavior considered to be bad by the state

01:25:33.780 is punished by denying access to such things.

01:25:37.900 Even their social contacts can influence

01:25:40.300 whether the government deems them to be good or bad citizens.

01:25:44.440 China is, of course, much further ahead in the implementation of this system.

01:25:49.020 Yet experts warn that a digital ID will make a similar social credit system possible.

01:25:53.780 In Europe, you only have to look at the European Green Deal to understand

01:25:58.940 that a personal carbon dioxide budget linked to your digital ID

01:26:02.780 is a likely scenario in Europe.

01:26:05.180 It will decide whether you can still buy meat

01:26:08.000 or how far you can travel by plane or by car,

01:26:11.180 depending on how much of your budget you have left.

01:26:14.280 This is a terrifying mechanism of control that forces compliance of citizens.

01:26:18.860 But now that countries across Europe are almost uniformly letting go of strict COVID measures

01:26:25.060 and are putting the controversial QR codes on hold,

01:26:29.600 the EU is rolling out the European digital ID.

01:26:33.620 Lockdowns in the Green Pass were merely a trial run

01:26:36.700 that has shown the global elite that even the free nations of Europe

01:26:41.600 were willing to give up their freedom for the impression of safety.

01:26:45.760 It was never about COVID.

01:26:50.000 It was about setting up a permanent digital infrastructure for a central digital identity.

01:26:56.220 Under the pretense of public health, we are being herded

01:26:59.100 towards a terrifying system of control that will mean an end to our individual freedoms

01:27:03.660 as we have come to know them.

01:27:05.240 The challenge that each of us faces in our home countries

01:27:09.520 to fight off the transfer of national sovereignty to Brussels

01:27:13.740 and to protect our citizens against this neo-communist agenda

01:27:17.660 being rolled out under the guise of the Great Reset

01:27:20.140 is greater than ever before.

01:27:22.960 The European digital identity is a supranational tool

01:27:26.060 to control and monitor the behavior of citizens across Europe.

01:27:29.840 What we are currently seeing in Canada

01:27:32.620 with the freezing of bank accounts of those protesting

01:27:35.680 or sympathetic towards the protests

01:27:37.620 against the inhumane COVID measures implemented by the regime of Justin Trudeau

01:27:41.740 will also happen in Europe if we don't take a stand.

01:27:46.340 With this digital ID,

01:27:48.900 bank accounts could be frozen for simply placing a tweet

01:27:52.020 that counters the dominant narrative.

01:27:54.060 Our states will be failing to protect their own citizens

01:27:58.620 against an increasingly powerful Brussels

01:28:00.840 if this plan is rolled out across Europe without any resistance.

01:28:06.180 Honored guests,

01:28:07.340 we all have different interests and priorities,

01:28:10.540 that much is clear.

01:28:12.500 Yet we all have a love for freedom,

01:28:15.260 the freedom to pursue our own interests as sovereign nation-states.

01:28:18.940 We also seek to protect the interests of our citizens

01:28:23.120 and their individual liberties

01:28:24.780 against a bureaucratic elite

01:28:26.560 that seeks to reduce the diversity of European nations

01:28:30.060 into a controllable homogenous mass.

01:28:34.480 All in the name of control,

01:28:37.300 all in the name of the Great Reset.

01:28:40.240 Let us ensure

01:28:41.760 that we resist this globalist agenda in Europe,

01:28:45.380 that we stand firm to protect the sovereignty of our nation-state

01:28:49.580 and protect our citizens.

01:28:52.180 This is our duty as freedom-loving parties.

01:28:56.000 And I wish you all strength and steadfastness

01:28:58.920 as we enter an era of rapid change

01:29:01.680 and constantly changing narratives

01:29:04.260 that seek to confuse and dislodge.

01:29:07.820 Stay true to your principles and your nations.

01:29:12.120 Stay true to defending liberty.

01:29:14.720 Thank you.

01:29:15.380 Goodbye.

01:29:17.200 Goodbye.

01:29:17.840 Thank you.

01:29:18.980 Goodbye.

01:29:39.780 Goodbye.

01:29:40.080 Goodbye.

01:29:41.020 Goodbye.

01:29:41.480 Goodbye.

01:29:42.220 Goodbye.

01:29:42.480 Goodbye.

01:29:42.520 Goodbye.

01:29:43.180 Goodbye.

01:29:43.260 Goodbye.

01:29:43.780 Goodbye.

01:29:43.840 Goodbye.

01:29:44.820 Goodbye.
