Rebel News Podcast - DAILY ｜ Trudeau's politicization of the Nova Scotia shooting; Food costs have families worried

00:00:00.000 This is Maxime Bernier, leader of the People's Party of Canada.

00:00:18.720 We must keep fighting all COVID measures until they are gone permanently.

00:00:24.420 Join the fight at peoplespartyofcanada.ca.

00:00:27.460 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:29.400 You have tuned in to the Rebel News Livestream on this, a Wednesday, June 22nd, 2022.

00:00:37.900 I'm David Menzies, and well, let me tell you a little bit about my co-host, folks.

00:00:42.620 Do you know that today is National Kissing Day?

00:00:46.840 And the question arises, is Me Too still a thing?

00:00:50.440 Yes.

00:00:50.680 She is the she-devil with a saber. 1.00

00:00:54.040 She is the Khaleesi of Port Hope. 0.99

00:00:58.400 She is Catherine Krosnowski.

00:01:01.080 Did I massacre your surname yet again?

00:01:03.040 Oh, no.

00:01:03.840 Okay.

00:01:04.120 Close.

00:01:04.400 Thank you.

00:01:04.980 Close.

00:01:05.540 Close enough.

00:01:06.820 How are you doing, Catherine?

00:01:07.200 I don't even know how to say the original version of it.

00:01:09.540 Well, you know, it's very ethnic.

00:01:11.620 And, you know, I am unfrozen caveman journalist.

00:01:14.720 Your tall buildings and fast-moving cars, Catherine, frighten and confuse me.

00:01:20.300 But how are you doing, my friend?

00:01:22.400 I'm great.

00:01:22.820 How are you doing?

00:01:23.500 I'm doing great.

00:01:24.240 You know what?

00:01:24.640 You know why I'm just walking on sunshine?

00:01:28.480 And it is a humidex of plus 44 today in the GTA.

00:01:32.880 So I don't know about you, Catherine.

00:01:34.560 I'm quite a sweaty betty.

00:01:37.100 This is, there's something about the male and female thermostat, folks.

00:01:40.880 I got to tell you.

00:01:41.600 But we hosted the showing of the Trucker Rebellion video.

00:01:46.760 And Lord Black gave a history of civil liberties in Canada at the Carloo venue.

00:01:55.020 What a beautiful venue.

00:01:56.060 I don't know if it's Art Deco or Art Modern.

00:01:59.240 Not that I'm an expert in.

00:02:01.400 Is that, you think so?

00:02:02.340 Oh, no, Deco, Deco.

00:02:03.320 I think it was built in 31.

00:02:05.680 I have French architect.

00:02:07.100 Yeah.

00:02:07.400 I think you're right.

00:02:08.100 I think it's Neuvo.

00:02:08.680 And it went on for decades.

00:02:10.540 And I think in the mid-70s, this gorgeous venue was shuttered up, if you can believe it.

00:02:15.740 And then in the early 2000s, it was restored to its former glory.

00:02:21.200 And you can almost imagine sort of a roaring 20s gala happening there, even though it came.

00:02:27.140 I mean, did you ride the elevators?

00:02:28.540 You can definitely imagine the 20s.

00:02:29.460 Oh, yeah.

00:02:30.160 You know, I'm surprised there wasn't somebody in a pillbox hat, you know, operating it.

00:02:34.320 But, you know, what I loved about it, Catherine, I mean, we sometimes go and we cover hostile events, whether it's Antifa or leftist politicians.

00:02:44.200 And really, what's the difference?

00:02:46.280 Can you tell the difference?

00:02:47.820 And to meet so many of our supporters, of our fans, and they're so wonderful with the kind words they tell us, it never gets old.

00:02:58.860 So I am just so delighted.

00:03:01.640 And what a great flick.

00:03:03.480 I hadn't seen it before, had you?

00:03:05.160 Hadn't seen it on the big screen, that's for sure.

00:03:07.560 And I loved it.

00:03:08.480 Yeah, it was great.

00:03:09.040 And so big shout out to Kian Simone, K2, Sydney Fazzard, and of course, Mocha.

00:03:17.720 They put together a wonderful job.

00:03:19.740 So, speaking of jobs, what is the ostensible policy reason of what we're trying to do here today?

00:03:24.680 Well, David, the Rebel News live stream is Rebels reacting to the daily news.

00:03:29.140 And we do it Monday through Friday at 12 Eastern.

00:03:32.280 So we are live right now on YouTube, Rumble, Odyssey, Super U, and Getter.

00:03:39.200 But at some point, if things get too spicy, we might have to say goodbye to our friends on YouTube.

00:03:43.440 So I suggest you watch on one of the other platforms.

00:03:46.060 Rumble is probably the most popular way to watch.

00:03:48.220 But that's pretty much it, right?

00:03:50.640 And also, if any of our subjects, folks, gets close to any forbidden topics, that would be a contrarian viewpoint of the coronavirus.

00:04:03.040 That would be doubting the results of the election in the U.S.

00:04:08.260 Oh, not the 2016 election.

00:04:10.840 That's okay.

00:04:11.480 Doubt away.

00:04:13.040 But the 2021.

00:04:15.260 Then we have to bid adieu to YouTube, the censorious thugs of Silicon Valley.

00:04:21.260 They're not really all about free speech anymore.

00:04:25.340 So I don't know if we have something.

00:04:28.240 One more thing, though.

00:04:29.280 If you want to interact with David and I, which, of course, you do, you can send chats.

00:04:35.020 There you go.

00:04:35.640 There we are.

00:04:36.380 We have it.

00:04:36.880 Send a rant on Rumble.

00:04:38.940 Or I think we have YouTube chats as well.

00:04:41.040 And they all have their own little chat platforms.

00:04:43.220 You can donate as little as a dollar.

00:04:45.160 And we'll read your comment on live air.

00:04:47.860 And we love to talk about Star Trek.

00:04:49.620 Oh, we do?

00:04:50.480 Okay.

00:04:50.880 We do.

00:04:51.160 I should have brushed it up on my trivia, though.

00:04:53.300 But in the meantime, set your phasers on fun.

00:04:56.460 See what I did there?

00:04:57.240 Yes, I did, David.

00:04:57.780 Very Horowitz.

00:04:58.580 Pat on the back.

00:04:59.880 Okay.

00:05:00.540 Well, you know what?

00:05:01.620 The top news item, folks, is this unbelievable story coming out of the public inquiry regarding

00:05:09.320 that massacre in Nova Scotia going back to April 2020.

00:05:14.440 And, you know, it's kind of amazing.

00:05:16.200 I thought that would, I get the Toronto Sun, and I thought that would be the front page

00:05:21.420 news.

00:05:22.020 There's a little banner about it, but it's Austin Matthews winning the NHL's MVP award.

00:05:29.620 Tell me, does Austin Matthews look like a young version of Ron Jeremy to you?

00:05:35.640 I don't know who that is, David.

00:05:37.960 Oh, okay, then.

00:05:39.140 Perish the thought.

00:05:40.620 But nevertheless, folks.

00:05:42.120 No, that's a good point.

00:05:42.680 Maybe there should have been something about this massive story on the front page of the

00:05:45.740 Toronto Sun.

00:05:46.540 Because it is a scandal, and it involves some of the top people in Canada, namely the Prime

00:05:53.340 Minister, the Commissioner of the RCMP, Brenda Luckey, the then Public Safety Minister, Bill

00:06:01.040 Blair.

00:06:02.060 Now, of course, it is Marco Mendicino.

00:06:05.560 He's doing a fantastic job.

00:06:06.960 Oh, yeah.

00:06:07.320 If he's doing a fantastic job, if the job was auditioning for the role of Pinocchio, the

00:06:12.700 title character, I mean, that guy, I don't even think he can spell the truth.

00:06:17.060 But what this investigation revealed in testimony from RCMP Superintendent Darren Campbell and the

00:06:26.480 RCMP Director of Communications, Leah Scanlon, is that in a meeting on April 28th, which was

00:06:33.040 one week after the massacre, this is 2020 again, folks, Luckey was upset that those leading the

00:06:42.860 investigation had not released the type of firearms that the killer had used.

00:06:50.940 And what the two RCMP officers testified was that doing so would compromise the investigation.

00:06:59.700 It's not done.

00:07:01.220 And like you said, it was a week after the massacre.

00:07:04.840 That's right.

00:07:05.500 So it's still they're still piecing everything together.

00:07:08.400 Very fresh.

00:07:08.900 Yeah.

00:07:09.100 So why or why would Bill Blair and Brenda Luckey and Prime Minister Trudeau be so adamant on

00:07:17.100 finding out what type of guns were being used or were used in the massacre?

00:07:22.960 And Catherine, the reason is this was all politically motivated.

00:07:27.560 This was we know that one of the guns he used was an AR-15, which the Liberals were effectively

00:07:36.860 banning along with 1500 other types of firearms.

00:07:40.800 Assault style.

00:07:41.720 Exactly.

00:07:42.360 Assault style.

00:07:43.380 Yeah.

00:07:43.520 Yeah.

00:07:44.200 If it looks like a, you know, a black military rifle, that's bad.

00:07:48.900 But the identical rifle in terms of the magazine, the capacity, everything else, if it's got a

00:07:55.920 wooden stock, that's a kinder, gentler, friendlier rifle, even though they're exactly the same thing.

00:08:00.560 And it was completely politically motivated.

00:08:05.440 It was along the lines, Catherine, of the government saying, you see, you see, this is why we have to

00:08:14.360 clamp down on the rights of legal firearms owners.

00:08:19.360 Here's the thing.

00:08:20.520 The killer who used that rifle, Catherine, he was not a legal firearms owner.

00:08:29.940 That was an illegal AR-15 that he had smuggled from the United States.

00:08:36.740 And as a matter of fact, folks, he was already banned from owning any guns.

00:08:43.700 He was on a bit of a watch list because of erratic behavior in the past and shouted out

00:08:49.900 for, you know, for odd behavior, like I said.

00:08:54.960 Anyways, I think the story here, Catherine, is the lengths the Trudeau liberals would go

00:09:02.800 to as well as, and I think this is the most shocking thing, is Commissioner Lucky being a

00:09:10.840 willing accomplice, being a useful idiot to compromise an investigation into a horrific 0.81

00:09:18.260 massacre, just so they can play the, you know, Captain Trudeau is here to save Canada and Canadians

00:09:25.120 by firearms banning.

00:09:27.700 What do you make of this?

00:09:29.040 Well, I mean, we've been talking about this for a while, ever since the horrible tragedy

00:09:33.020 in Ovalde.

00:09:34.120 And I mean, in the States, it is a little bit different because it is like we know that the

00:09:39.180 shooter there purchased that gun legally.

00:09:40.940 So there is an argument for, like, it's a big, complicated issue.

00:09:45.180 There is an argument for, like, how do we prevent people from buying legal guns there?

00:09:48.320 But in this case, in Canada, we know it's super hard to get a legal gun.

00:09:52.880 And when you do, your magazine capacity is only 15 rounds tops, I think.

00:09:59.220 I'm not a firearm expert.

00:10:00.740 I'm pretty sure.

00:10:01.460 I'm working on my gun license, so I'm pretty sure.

00:10:04.820 I wish you had a gun.

00:10:05.340 Oh, you are working on a gun license.

00:10:06.900 Yeah, yeah.

00:10:07.180 Good for you.

00:10:07.820 Yeah.

00:10:07.960 Maybe you might not mention that.

00:10:09.920 Maybe the government's going to wiretap your phone now as an act of vengeance against a

00:10:15.680 rebel reporter.

00:10:16.360 That's what they did to Rob Stocky, the ex-cop in Ottawa, just for attending a freedom rally.

00:10:21.320 Just kidding.

00:10:21.700 I'm not.

00:10:21.840 Maybe we should.

00:10:22.720 Yeah.

00:10:23.900 But we know how hard it is to get a gun in Canada.

00:10:27.460 And it should be, in my opinion.

00:10:28.820 I think you should have to go through training and you should have references and all sorts

00:10:34.760 like maybe references would have stopped the Uvalde shooter from getting a gun.

00:10:38.980 I don't know.

00:10:39.880 Well, you know, I don't think that's the issue here, Catherine.

00:10:42.820 Well, not here.

00:10:43.560 No.

00:10:43.840 No.

00:10:44.220 I think it's the idea that a prime minister, a public safety officer, that the boss of these

00:10:52.000 two RCMP officers, Campbell and Scanlon, actually interfered during an active investigation

00:10:59.460 for no other purpose than to further their political agenda.

00:11:05.100 I think this is one of the biggest scandals.

00:11:09.860 And that's saying a lot.

00:11:10.700 Yeah, I was going to say, what does that even mean these days?

00:11:12.980 In the last seven years of the Trudeau Liberals.

00:11:15.240 Here's my question, Catherine.

00:11:18.120 Is this prime minister?

00:11:19.320 Is this government?

00:11:20.560 Is this RCMP community?

00:11:21.860 Are they going to skate on this yet again?

00:11:24.020 Yes, absolutely.

00:11:25.000 Isn't it unbelievable?

00:11:25.880 Yeah.

00:11:26.280 What do we have to do?

00:11:29.060 What do we have to report to pierce the Teflon on this guy?

00:11:32.740 And I know here's my I haven't scanned the media coverage on Mass yet, Catherine.

00:11:38.220 But here's my thinking in terms of how it's going to be spun by the likes of, you know,

00:11:43.960 the star and all the others that we contribute our tax dollars to to do journalism because

00:11:50.220 they can't make money with what they're selling right now.

00:11:53.980 And it's going to be this.

00:11:55.400 Well, yeah, you know, it's kind of, you know, iffy that they interfered in a active investigation.

00:12:03.240 But the intentions were there.

00:12:05.980 We got to ban these evil guns.

00:12:07.820 We got to take those terrible rifles and AR-15s out of the Dominion.

00:12:14.160 So maybe they didn't behave in terms of proper protocol.

00:12:19.440 But the end result, the hope for end result was good.

00:12:23.880 I think that's how they're going to spin it, because the liberal newspapers are so anti-gun,

00:12:30.780 you know, and it doesn't matter if you are a law abiding duck hunter in Saskatchewan.

00:12:36.520 You just say gun.

00:12:38.220 You just put up an image of a gun and guns are bad and they must be banned.

00:12:44.440 Of course, I do believe Justin Trudeau's private security detail.

00:12:48.480 Oh, yeah.

00:12:49.080 They carry guns.

00:12:50.080 Oh, of course they do.

00:12:50.880 And I was reading one of the articles and it said that a week after the rampage, Trudeau

00:12:56.760 said that the RCMP is systemically racist.

00:13:01.100 So according to the prime minister, you shouldn't have a gun, but the systemically racist RCMP

00:13:08.120 should.

00:13:09.260 What kind of logic is that?

00:13:10.320 We hear this all the time in the States, but to hear it from the prime minister himself.

00:13:13.880 Yes.

00:13:14.480 Well, I think that's going to be a hard sell because if memory serves, the killer was white. 0.68

00:13:20.860 And I believe the officers who eventually took him down were also of the same race.

00:13:25.880 But, oh, I'm sure there's a bit of racism lurking there.

00:13:29.520 I mean, I don't have anything.

00:13:31.920 It's just so it's just they say it.

00:13:33.900 It's like saying someone's a transphobe, someone's a racist.

00:13:36.480 It's like such an easy way to just paint someone as evil without having needing any proof, because

00:13:41.000 most people will hear that and then just go, yep.

00:13:43.260 Well, I will say this, Catherine.

00:13:45.200 I think the RCMP as a law enforcement agency is in complete disarray.

00:13:51.560 And I'm not targeting all members of the RCMP.

00:13:55.740 In fact, in Ottawa, during the trucker convoy, I met someone, Catherine, at a restaurant.

00:14:04.300 He came up to me.

00:14:05.120 He was off-duty RCMP.

00:14:07.920 And he said to me, what happened to me in December, remember with the RCMP officers on Trudeau's security detail?

00:14:15.620 Yeah, beating me up.

00:14:17.400 He had never felt more shame being an RCMP officer than seeing that video footage.

00:14:25.340 So there are good Mounties out there.

00:14:29.280 Yeah, we're not painting them all with the same brush.

00:14:31.140 And I really appreciated his heartfelt words.

00:14:33.940 But in general, I'm having severe doubts about the effectiveness of this police agency because it is so obviously politicized.

00:14:46.740 And you can almost it's hard to blame the individuals if the if the organization is corrupt and like people work paycheck to paycheck these days.

00:14:57.760 And it's hard to blame people when they're like, well, I'm getting an order.

00:15:01.320 If I go against that order, I'm going to be fired.

00:15:04.000 I mean, I have a family to feed like it's when your boss is telling you to do something you don't want to do.

00:15:08.260 You have to stand up and say no.

00:15:09.860 And you have to take the risk of walking away from a job.

00:15:12.180 And a lot of people can't afford to do that.

00:15:14.280 And I feel for the RCMP.

00:15:16.060 But at the same time, there's so many of them that could mean I don't know how it works.

00:15:19.840 I don't know what it would take for the organization to uncorrupt itself.

00:15:24.000 It would mean a complete change in the culture, because my experience, folks, is that when you look at a police division that has more than, you know, the statistical number of bad apples that it should have, it really is that there is a rotten culture at play.

00:15:45.540 And you have to go from the head of the fish down.

00:15:49.320 You have to get rid of the leaders and bring in new leadership.

00:15:53.020 And on that note, and you mentioned firing, Catherine, I am I'm sorry.

00:15:57.200 I think Brenda Luckey, Bill Blair and Prime Minister Trudeau have to step down.

00:16:04.660 This this is how serious this is, interfering in an act of police investigation.

00:16:09.960 And good for Superintendent Campbell and for Scanlon of the RCMP for standing up to their boss.

00:16:17.800 Right. Because that could be a very career limiting move.

00:16:21.500 I mean, imagine you're in the rank and file of the RCMP, Catherine, and no lower authority than Brenda Luckey is saying, give me this information.

00:16:33.420 Like you said, you've got bills to pay. Do you want to be, you know, do you want to be demoted?

00:16:39.360 Do you want to be fired on trumped up charges? And I wouldn't put it past these cats.

00:16:43.780 Yeah. I wouldn't put it past it.

00:16:45.900 Of course, Blair, I heard him speaking on the radio into headquarters.

00:16:49.840 He's denying any kind of coercion.

00:16:52.240 Do you believe that?

00:16:53.080 Oh, that's I'm shocked. I'm shocked, David.

00:16:55.800 Yeah. I know. But I mean, you know, I guess Blair is now taking a page from his replacement at public safety, Marco Mendicino, which is to lie, lie, lie or default to the Sergeant Schultz routine.

00:17:09.680 I know nothing. I saw nothing.

00:17:12.480 But I would really like to hear where our viewers stand on this.

00:17:20.520 This, like I said, is a major scandal.

00:17:24.420 It is such inappropriate behavior.

00:17:26.920 The idea of the politicians and a politicized RCMP commissioner actually tinkering with an active investigation to pursue some bogus political agenda in terms of the vilification and demonization of legal gun owners.

00:17:44.460 Legal gun owners.

00:17:45.040 Yeah.

00:17:45.180 And that's the huge caveat there.

00:17:47.060 Like this murderer was not a legal gun owner.

00:17:49.520 That's right.

00:17:50.060 According to the law, he shouldn't have been anywhere near a weapon.

00:17:52.020 And yet and yet he did.

00:17:54.100 He had hate in his heart and he went on a rampage.

00:17:56.400 And the law wasn't going to stop him.

00:17:58.520 And with the true to liberals, Catherine, these details, which are very important details, i.e. illegal gun, i.e. the guy couldn't own any guns because he was on a watch list.

00:18:10.780 That will go amiss.

00:18:12.240 Yeah. Right.

00:18:12.600 Well, I had to look into it myself because I was reading all these articles about it for a couple of weeks ago for some other thing.

00:18:18.760 And I was like, wait, wait, was this a legal gun?

00:18:21.160 I couldn't find.

00:18:21.600 And so I went to Wikipedia, of all places, and it said he did not have a PAL possession and acquisition license.

00:18:26.220 And I was like, ah, that's the detail I haven't seen in any of these news stories.

00:18:29.700 Kind of important.

00:18:30.620 Yeah.

00:18:31.320 A hundred percent.

00:18:32.300 And although I would caution you in terms of buying everything at face value from Wikipedia.

00:18:38.400 Well, it was the only, I mean, it seems to be the only place I could find that little tidbit.

00:18:43.200 There you go.

00:18:43.900 So in the days ahead, I think collectively what we should all do is watch the media coverage of this.

00:18:51.020 Watch the spin.

00:18:52.360 Watch the justification.

00:18:54.500 Because when I came across this story, holy smokes, my eyes popped out of my head like that wolf in the Tex Avery cartoon, you know.

00:19:04.060 But we shall move on.

00:19:07.680 And we have a full list, if I can find it.

00:19:09.920 What tickles your fancy on National Kissing Day, Catherine?

00:19:15.840 Oh, by the way, I should say, National Kissing Day, which is today, should not be confused.

00:19:20.580 Is it actually?

00:19:21.320 It is.

00:19:21.700 I don't make any of this up.

00:19:23.060 I thought you were making it up.

00:19:23.400 How could I?

00:19:23.780 No.

00:19:24.480 I shouldn't be confused with International Kissing Day.

00:19:27.080 That's July 6th.

00:19:28.500 You know a lot about Kissing Day.

00:19:30.100 Oh, yeah.

00:19:31.000 Well, hope abounds, right?

00:19:32.680 And please make a note of this, January 12th, that's National or International Kiss a Ginger Day.

00:19:41.000 So write that date down.

00:19:42.520 I will.

00:19:42.940 Yeah, there you go.

00:19:43.500 There you see.

00:19:44.340 Thank you, Super Producer Olivia.

00:19:47.600 But there's a deadly virus going around.

00:19:50.320 That's right, which is why I kissed my dog, Sir Gregor, today.

00:19:54.740 Bit of a same-sex kiss, but I think I can get away with it. 1.00

00:19:58.200 Lady Manzoid was not in the mood, as usual. 0.99

00:20:00.700 Well, anyway, but that's enough about kissing.

00:20:04.400 What would you like to get to?

00:20:05.740 So there's an interesting story about the government.

00:20:07.720 It's from the National Post.

00:20:09.880 I have it written here.

00:20:10.980 So the National Post.

00:20:11.760 Government should take fight against ideological extremism online, House Committee Report says.

00:20:17.660 Yeah.

00:20:18.040 And once again, what – I mean, the crux of the matter is this, Catherine.

00:20:24.280 Define ideological extremism because –

00:20:28.740 Well, they do, and it's quite interesting.

00:20:30.360 Well, but – and one of those definitions, I'm sure, applies to law-abiding Canadians who were part of the trucker convoys in Ottawa.

00:20:41.780 That was the biggest one, of course.

00:20:42.880 Windsor, Cootes – and by the way, folks, if you haven't checked out Trucker Rebellion done by our colleagues, please do check it out.

00:20:52.220 These were people that were having their livelihoods quashed.

00:20:56.280 These were people that were being put out of business by some ludicrous Trudeau mandate that you've got to get jabbed if you're going to be a trucker crossing international borders, or you're going to have to quarantine for 14 or 15 days.

00:21:12.600 Yeah, that's really going to work when you're in the trucking business.

00:21:16.280 When you're in a cab alone the entire trip.

00:21:18.380 Exactly.

00:21:19.220 And you're not dealing with – it's just absolutely – but that is the problem.

00:21:26.280 These truckers, these are salt-of-the-earth Canadians and their allies and supporters.

00:21:31.140 I mean, Rex Murphy had an event last week.

00:21:34.120 He said it best.

00:21:35.300 He goes, I can't remember any rebellion or revolution in world history that involved hot tubs of bouncy castles.

00:21:46.780 I mean –

00:21:47.320 Yeah, not a single death.

00:21:49.040 And –

00:21:49.660 Exactly.

00:21:49.840 Or injury, I'm pretty sure.

00:21:51.000 And I still see people on the left and the media referring to what happened in Ottawa as an occupation.

00:21:58.240 And as insurrection.

00:21:59.520 Insurrection, yeah.

00:22:00.340 Insurrection.

00:22:01.220 Borrowing some terminology from January 6 south of the border.

00:22:04.200 It's traumatizing, you guys.

00:22:05.420 Yeah.

00:22:05.520 So, this article opens with recommendations from the report include targeting digital platforms, online bots, algorithms, crowdfunding, and cryptocurrency in addition to offline measures.

00:22:15.420 So, basically, GoFundMe, which funded the truckers, which was shut down.

00:22:20.760 So, crowdfunding is highlighted there.

00:22:24.220 And they also bring up, like, different types of hate groups, which would be subcategories of xenophobic, gender-driven, anti-authority, and other personal grievance-driven violence.

00:22:34.060 So, I just find it funny that they just throw anti-authority in there because if you are critical of the government, you're basically a terrorist.

00:22:41.840 And that is, like, where are we?

00:22:43.400 North Korea? 0.67

00:22:44.320 Like, that is crazy.

00:22:45.600 Like, violence and being anti-authority are not the same thing.

00:22:49.440 A hundred percent.

00:22:51.460 I mean, and I think, as journalists, one of our bailiwicks, Catherine, is to be the umpire looking at the behavior of government.

00:23:01.020 I mean, this idea of the government saying what you can and cannot say in the public square or the digital public square is outrageous.

00:23:09.700 That's the very reason there is a First Amendment in the United States, so that you can criticize the government without fear of the government putting you in jail for the criticism.

00:23:20.280 Yeah.

00:23:20.520 I don't think we have that right here in Canada.

00:23:22.220 No, we definitely don't.

00:23:24.300 People get that confused a lot.

00:23:25.700 Like, at these lockdown protests that we would cover, a lot of people say, well, it's my freedom of speech.

00:23:29.700 It's like, you don't actually have that freedom in Canada, unfortunately, which is terrifying.

00:23:33.280 Well, it's being more and more compromised.

00:23:35.840 It's kind of funny, this being the 40th anniversary of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms that was brought in by Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Justin's father, only to see Justin basically put that through the paper shredder.

00:23:47.200 But, you know, here's the thing, these authorities that seem to think, and I'm talking about politicians, I'm talking about bureaucrats, chief medical health officers, you name it, they seem to think they're beyond any kind of public criticism, Catherine.

00:24:04.700 And yet the criticism, what Jagmeet Singh said about the trucker convoy in Ottawa, that it was comprised of white supremacists, and they had an Islamophobic agenda.

00:24:17.360 Also, the prime minister came out with homophobic misogyny.

00:24:22.200 Anti-science.

00:24:23.180 I'm Clara Peller here right now, folks.

00:24:25.540 The Wendy spokeswoman from the 80s in the restaurant going, where's the beef? 0.81

00:24:31.140 That's right. You know, I am astonished they could get away with this when there's no evidence, Catherine, to support this.

00:24:39.340 Well, they just keep throwing those isms out, Islamophobic, racist, which is not an ism, but it kind of is, and anti-science.

00:24:46.240 And it's like you just throw whatever on the wall and hope something sticks.

00:24:50.040 Yep.

00:24:50.400 And a lot of it sticks.

00:24:51.780 And, you know, for Jagmeet Singh, I mean, I'm sorry, Mr. Singh, but there were Sikh individuals at these protests, including a wonderful Sikh gentleman during the dying day of the rebellion, which I was there in Ottawa covering.

00:25:08.640 And it was like minus 30 gazillion below zero.

00:25:11.800 So cold.

00:25:12.140 Oh, and he gave me, I guess he saw me shivering, but he gave me hand warmers.

00:25:17.360 But there were a group of Sikhs I was next to.

00:25:20.480 So it's pretty hard to sell to me that people of brown skin wearing a turban and are of the Sikh faith are white supremacists.

00:25:31.540 Yeah, waving Canadian flags who just want to feed their families.

00:25:36.040 Yeah.

00:25:36.720 It's a tough sell, but people buy it.

00:25:39.140 It's shocking to me.

00:25:40.640 You know, I was on Twitter the other day looking at some article about the convoy.

00:25:44.540 I think it's about the Emergencies Act inquiry.

00:25:48.100 And people are, so many people are like, they call it the freedom convoy because freedom, wanting freedom makes you racist and stupid, apparently.

00:25:58.220 Like these, if they're, I mean, I was going to say if their freedom wasn't infringed, they would care, but it's like they don't.

00:26:03.700 You know, Catherine, you raise a good point here because I am of the opinion that on the left, these progressives, oh, well, actually, let's call them for what they are, Marxists.

00:26:15.000 Freedom is the new F word.

00:26:16.840 Yeah, it is.

00:26:17.660 And, you know, and I'll tell you what a symbol of that is.

00:26:21.060 Right now, go out on a beautiful sunny day in the GTA.

00:26:25.240 Go outside to a park, go to a shopping mall, anywhere.

00:26:30.740 You will still see people who look to me to be young and healthy.

00:26:38.280 And what are they wearing?

00:26:39.340 They're still wearing the mask.

00:26:41.040 They still got the face diaper on, even though in Ontario that has been eradicated since March 21st.

00:26:49.240 I don't think this is about protecting one from a virus anymore, Catherine.

00:26:56.440 No, David.

00:26:56.880 I think this is a statement, much like a Muslim woman wearing a hijab, a Christian wearing a cross, a Sikh wearing a turban. 0.92

00:27:06.300 This is a statement saying, I support big government.

00:27:10.920 I support big lockdowns.

00:27:13.120 I support big tech.

00:27:15.120 I support big censorship.

00:27:16.840 I'm telling you, you know, what's happened to the world in just half a century, which is a blink of geological, a blink of an eyelash when it comes to geological time, for sure.

00:27:29.740 You know, when you had young people on campus in the late 60s, early 70s, what were they campaigning for?

00:27:36.380 They were protesting the Vietnam War.

00:27:40.100 They were all about civil rights.

00:27:41.960 And now these indoctrinated young people are all about, yep, big government, big tech, big censorship.

00:27:50.780 It's for our own good, I've been told.

00:27:52.500 And that's good enough for me.

00:27:53.900 You know, you're younger than me, Catherine, a lot.

00:27:57.920 What do you make of this?

00:27:59.260 Because I see it, you know, this seems to be something that is so tied to the millennial generation.

00:28:07.120 I know it's easy to mock and criticize that generation, but it's for a reason. 0.95

00:28:11.840 I remember in I think it was 2016 in Berkeley, California at Berkeley University, there were riots because I think it was Ben Shapiro who was supposed to speak there.

00:28:22.900 And these anarchists were rioting free speech.

00:28:27.220 And it's Berkeley is where the free speech movement happened in the 60s that you just mentioned, the anti-Vietnam War, free speech, civil rights.

00:28:35.240 And it's just so funny.

00:28:36.380 Like the fact that the whole dichotomy has completely flipped on its head.

00:28:41.280 And I mean, that's kind of what brought me personally to Christianity because I was not, I was, I've always been like a bit of a rebel.

00:28:48.040 But when I saw what they were doing to pastors and how everyone was so indoctrinated, I was like, these pastors, like Pastor Hildebrandt, who I met and interviewed, he's so badass.

00:28:57.060 He was like rock and roll.

00:28:58.580 Oh, I love that guy.

00:28:59.580 He's such a badass guy.

00:29:00.520 That's Church of God and Elmer Angero.

00:29:01.960 Yes, Elmer, yeah.

00:29:02.660 And I was like, and I said to him, like, you guys are the new rock stars.

00:29:06.500 Like you guys are so anti-big government and so pro-free speech and love and peace and all the things that conservative Christians are supposed to be against.

00:29:16.040 It's that if you just looked in, if you just Googled, what are, you know, right-wing conservatives against, they would say, oh, they're against life and love and freedom.

00:29:23.540 But it's like nowadays, it's the complete opposite.

00:29:25.800 It's like, I'm like a hippie.

00:29:27.520 Yeah.

00:29:27.820 No, I think, I think the radical, the cool kid on campus is the conservative, is the right-leaning kid because, and you know, I say that because I think I'm going by memory, so don't quote me, but it was around 2018.

00:29:39.620 It was certainly pre-pandemic and one of the most shocking surveys I'd ever seen, Catherine, it was south of the border where they went to U.S. universities and colleges and asked the student body there that, you know, of course, the First Amendment protects freedom of speech.

00:29:56.760 But if your speech is hurtful, and that was the word, not libelous, not defamatory, not hate speech, but it's just hurtful to others, should the First Amendment be repealed?

00:30:12.300 And folks, 51% of Americans and American campuses said yes.

00:30:19.080 That's terrifying.

00:30:20.040 Yeah, because these people think words are violence.

00:30:22.880 Yes.

00:30:23.600 And they're not.

00:30:24.500 That's the beauty of it.

00:30:25.540 They're literally not.

00:30:26.700 Like, if I was to say, this is David Menzies' address, we are going at this date to go kill him, like, that's violence.

00:30:33.000 That's, I mean, those are words, but that's an active call for violence.

00:30:35.460 That's already illegal.

00:30:36.540 You cannot do that.

00:30:37.440 Exactly.

00:30:38.060 That's doxing.

00:30:38.920 That's invading someone's privacy.

00:30:40.400 That's calling for violence.

00:30:41.460 Like, that's already illegal.

00:30:42.520 But anything short of that, if I just said, I hate David Menzies, that's not like, which I don't, which I do not.

00:30:48.180 I love David Menzies.

00:30:48.960 But I'm just saying, like, National Kissing Day.

00:30:53.840 But it's like, people now equate the two as if they're the same thing.

00:30:57.380 And it's like, no, you should be allowed.

00:30:59.780 And I think you should be.

00:31:00.760 And it goes to, you know, this article about the government fighting against ideological extremism.

00:31:05.280 I think if someone, even as horrible as, like, a legitimate Nazi, an actual Nazi, I think they should be allowed to say whatever they want.

00:31:13.820 Because then at least we know who these people are.

00:31:16.280 They're outing themselves.

00:31:17.180 But if you force them off the Internet, then they're just going to be underground on, like, on the dark web or in person having these meetings.

00:31:24.220 It's like, wouldn't you rather know who these people are, what their ideas are, so that we can fight them in the online space, like, ideologically?

00:31:32.640 But you're pushing these people underground, and it's making them more extreme, more hateful.

00:31:37.100 It makes no sense to me.

00:31:38.520 I agree with you entirely.

00:31:40.040 And you mentioned Nazi.

00:31:41.300 I mean, we had an infamous neo-Nazi in Toronto, Ernest Zundel, in the 80s.

00:31:48.800 Eventually, I think he was deported back to his original country of Germany.

00:31:52.740 But I thought it was a huge misstep in how we went after Ernest Zundel.

00:31:59.840 Ernest Zundel was a Holocaust denier.

00:32:03.020 That makes him a son of a bitch in my viewpoint.

00:32:06.940 It's gross.

00:32:08.340 It's repugnant.

00:32:09.460 It's odious.

00:32:10.780 Say what you will.

00:32:11.460 But the thing about Ernest Zundel, folks, is he did not cross the line when it comes to free speech.

00:32:18.540 I'm pretty much a free speech absolutist.

00:32:20.200 But as Catherine alluded to, if you were going to preach harm or death to an individual or a group of people, that's offside.

00:32:31.240 That's against law.

00:32:32.340 That's the thing about Ernest Zundel.

00:32:33.680 He never said, hey, go out and kill a Jew.

00:32:37.000 He never said that.

00:32:38.100 So there was two things about what happened with Ernest Zundel.

00:32:42.140 The amount of publicity, because he was front page news.

00:32:45.880 Ernest Zundel couldn't be happier.

00:32:48.000 He was getting tens and tens of millions of dollars by the state in the pre-internet days, giving him a stage to preach his odious garbage.

00:33:01.440 And he made a mockery of the court process.

00:33:04.720 There was this famous photo.

00:33:06.360 So it's him going to court and he's actually dragging a life-size cross, right?

00:33:14.120 As though he's a Jesus figure.

00:33:16.380 It was absolutely preposterous.

00:33:18.840 But Zundel couldn't be happier that he was being targeted for his views.

00:33:25.300 Listen, if I were to deny the Titanic, the sinking of the Titanic, the existence of Napoleon, should I be prosecuted, right?

00:33:36.020 And that was the, there you go.

00:33:38.240 Look at that.

00:33:39.360 Can you imagine?

00:33:40.340 And that's, there's his useful idiots wearing construction helmets, hard hats, Catherine, for good reason.

00:33:47.620 And there were a lot of people throwing rocks.

00:33:49.460 People throwing rocks.

00:33:49.700 Yeah.

00:33:50.340 So there's, and thank you again to our Johnny on the Spot production team.

00:33:56.220 So, you know, we got off on a tangerine there.

00:33:59.280 Yeah.

00:33:59.300 But at the end of the day, with all this, to me, this is a lot of wallpaper that the Trudeau-Jugmeet regime are generating to justify bills like C-11.

00:34:13.620 And my hope is that, please, senators of Canada, justify your existence and don't allow bills like C-11 that are directly attacking our freedom of speech rights to pass.

00:34:30.520 You know, prove there is a reason for the Senate, much like they stepped up when it came to the Emergencies Act, when Trudeau realized he wasn't going to get Senate approval.

00:34:40.560 And then, you know, took his ball and went home like the spoiled child he is.

00:34:47.080 Now, I guess we're more than halfway into the show, Catherine.

00:34:50.160 Do we have any super chats?

00:34:52.600 Let me see.

00:34:53.560 All right, then.

00:34:54.380 Let's do a little housekeeping, as Doctor Evil would say.

00:34:58.980 Let's do a couple.

00:34:59.780 So we have one from King7734, $1.

00:35:03.620 Thank you.

00:35:04.460 Beauty and the Beast.

00:35:05.620 Which one's which?

00:35:06.560 Yes.

00:35:07.120 You're looking good, David.

00:35:08.220 Okay, well, that answers it.

00:35:10.560 He says, just kidding, but you can't pump up the beautiful girls. 0.66

00:35:13.900 Well, you can.

00:35:15.440 Well, you know.

00:35:17.160 Why does everyone hate beautiful women? 1.00

00:35:19.700 There's an attack.

00:35:20.980 Just one second.

00:35:22.300 Do we have an HR director yet?

00:35:24.140 No.

00:35:24.520 Okay.

00:35:25.000 Yeah, well, she is a beautiful woman. 0.99

00:35:26.860 By the way, on that note, I want to say, I want to give a shout out to Maxim Magazine.

00:35:30.520 Paige Sporanik, who is a golf influencer, was named the most beautiful female on the face

00:35:38.560 of the earth.

00:35:39.160 And she is quite beautiful.

00:35:40.660 She's a horrible golfer, which is why she's a golf influencer. 1.00

00:35:43.820 You can't golf with those things in the way.

00:35:46.360 It's just, you don't get the swing right.

00:35:48.120 I have a story to tell you off air about that.

00:35:50.800 Anyways, why I'm giving a shout out.

00:35:54.120 I mean, it's a classical, you know, beautiful blonde woman. 1.00

00:35:58.940 The reason why I'm giving Maxim a shout out about this, in this day and age, Catherine,

00:36:03.860 I was almost expecting Maxim to hop aboard the Woke Wagon.

00:36:07.700 Put a man on there.

00:36:08.640 Put a transvestite on there or to find a woman who is morbidly obese. 0.99

00:36:16.500 And listen, I love curvy women, but there is a point in which you get to a weight where 1.00

00:36:22.940 you're going to have a shortened lifespan.

00:36:26.140 Not maybe, you will.

00:36:27.700 Tess Holliday.

00:36:28.320 Yeah.

00:36:28.980 There you go.

00:36:30.180 And who is unapologetic, you know, for her lifestyle. 0.99

00:36:33.460 So a shout out to Maxim for putting an actual, real, biological woman on their cover. 0.81

00:36:42.620 And if our little tech hobbits can find an image to put up later, you'll see what I mean.

00:36:49.820 So, by the way, what is your opinion of that?

00:36:52.060 I mean, we're seeing this kind of wokeism get into the beauty debate.

00:36:57.860 You know, people being put in, being accoladed for being a gorgeous woman when they're not,

00:37:04.940 and they're not even female.

00:37:06.460 So what's your viewpoint of Maxim going old school on it?

00:37:10.140 I like it.

00:37:10.800 Yeah.

00:37:11.080 Good.

00:37:11.740 I mean, I could be like, well, that woman is more beautiful than me, so I'm offended.

00:37:18.020 It should be someone that looks just like me on the cover of Maxim.

00:37:20.680 But you know what?

00:37:21.180 I have other talents.

00:37:22.400 I don't, not everyone gets to be a swimsuit model on the cover of Maxim, and that's okay.

00:37:27.860 Indeed.

00:37:28.500 And you know, it's the entitlement too, Catherine.

00:37:31.100 Sheila and I were talking about this last week.

00:37:33.200 There is some, I can't even remember her name.

00:37:35.020 I'm sorry about that, folks.

00:37:36.080 But it was some influencer, the whole body image thing.

00:37:42.060 And she wanted to go to a ranch, and she did.

00:37:45.980 And she wanted to ride a horse.

00:37:47.740 And the maximum capacity for the horse is 240 pounds.

00:37:53.480 Otherwise, it might suffer a broken back.

00:37:56.900 And she was beyond 250.

00:38:00.120 And there it is, the TikTok star.

00:38:03.620 And here's, so he said, no dice.

00:38:07.280 So she went whining and complaining. 1.00

00:38:10.180 Where's PETA when you need them?

00:38:11.460 You stole the words right out of my mouth, you know, to quote a meatloaf song.

00:38:16.640 Where is PETA on this issue?

00:38:18.320 But you know what?

00:38:19.660 Sheila, our beloved colleague, Catherine, was monitoring the social media chat.

00:38:25.600 And it was 50-50.

00:38:27.920 It was 50% saying, this is an entitled, selfish person who would do harm to an innocent animal.

00:38:34.920 And the other 50% saying, no, how dare you hurt her feelings?

00:38:39.820 What is it about a certain generation where hurt feelings is almost akin to a capital crime?

00:38:45.920 Yeah, I don't know.

00:38:47.140 I don't know.

00:38:48.020 I played sports in high school.

00:38:49.640 And our hockey team was the worst in the league.

00:38:52.500 And I was the goalie.

00:38:53.440 So I know about hurt feelings.

00:38:55.200 Wow.

00:38:55.500 Getting 15 goals scored on you.

00:38:57.260 Thank God we didn't have a secondary goalie because I would have been pulled.

00:39:01.840 Oh, there you are.

00:39:02.940 I didn't know that about you.

00:39:04.100 I know about hurt feelings.

00:39:05.320 Like, when you're in the real world, hurt feelings are like having a job.

00:39:09.220 Sometimes you do a bad job and your boss has to chastise you or you don't win whatever sporting thing or whatever it is.

00:39:15.120 And your feelings get hurt or you get dumped.

00:39:17.220 It's like, that's life.

00:39:18.740 I didn't know you were a gumper. 0.99

00:39:21.080 That was my position as well.

00:39:22.580 You don't know that?

00:39:24.060 No.

00:39:24.520 Oh, my goodness, folks.

00:39:26.380 Anyone want to educate Catherine?

00:39:28.380 I'm assuming it's a goalie.

00:39:29.380 Oh, of course it does.

00:39:30.660 Yes.

00:39:31.760 But you know what?

00:39:32.900 Let's face it.

00:39:34.860 Goalies are slightly crazy.

00:39:36.360 They are.

00:39:36.680 And that's why I was a goalie.

00:39:38.280 I didn't have to skate.

00:39:39.600 I loved the attention.

00:39:41.180 Yes.

00:39:41.580 Got to wear big pads.

00:39:43.160 And it was fun.

00:39:43.460 And you get 60 full minutes of ice time.

00:39:45.740 Yeah.

00:39:46.080 Unless they pull you, which was frequent in my tenure.

00:39:49.480 Anyway, do we have another?

00:39:51.180 Yes, we do.

00:39:51.820 So this is from Paul Otto Newman.

00:39:54.320 $5.

00:39:55.000 Thank you.

00:39:55.940 Do you believe that these new revelations of interference by the Trudeau government will

00:39:59.280 finally cause the NDP caucus to wake up and end their agreement with the LPC, Liberal

00:40:03.620 Party of Canada, or will they agree with the results?

00:40:06.560 It's a good question.

00:40:07.940 Jagmeet Singh has been vicious in his criticism about this recent scandal.

00:40:12.620 That's A.

00:40:14.800 B.

00:40:15.220 No, he will not vote against this government.

00:40:20.080 C.

00:40:20.960 The reason is he needs to rag the puck, to use a hockey term, to 2025 so he gets his full

00:40:29.040 six years of service and his juicy pension.

00:40:32.100 That is the only reason that the Jagmeet Singh NDP is propping up this scandal-played government.

00:40:40.720 And Catherine, I find it appalling that Jagmeet Singh in the House of Commons or social media

00:40:46.180 will wag his finger and say, how dare you, Justin Trudeau, do this?

00:40:50.760 And then when push comes to shove, when it's a vote, backs up this government.

00:40:54.960 I mean, he's a politician.

00:40:56.400 You know what?

00:40:56.960 I'm sorry.

00:40:57.740 I have less respect for Mr. Singh than I do for Mr. Trudeau.

00:41:02.120 Those are harsh words.

00:41:03.600 Yeah.

00:41:04.000 He's almost as bad as Patrick Brown.

00:41:06.040 Yeah.

00:41:06.500 Well, it's easy to criticize when you've never been in power and you likely never will.

00:41:11.400 No, he won't.

00:41:12.640 And good point, because not only is he not the official opposition, he represents the fourth

00:41:19.380 place party in Canadian Parliament right now, you know, after the Conservatives and the

00:41:24.720 Bloc. 0.94

00:41:25.460 And this is a guy holding this country hostage, holding Parliament effectively hostage.

00:41:30.720 And the reason, it's not for stability.

00:41:35.280 It's not for some great Trudeau economic programs to, you know, get us out of this economic quagmire

00:41:41.280 rear end. It's all about Jagmeet Singh having enough do-re-mi to pay his BMW M3 payments and

00:41:50.360 his Armani suits. That is appalling.

00:41:53.300 This is the most selfish person in the House of Commons.

00:41:56.980 Yet in mainstream media, he will get a pass because to criticize a Sikh, I think with a

00:42:04.660 lot of journalists that are covering Parliament, that might be construed as racist when it's not.

00:42:11.320 Of course not. It's racist to say you can't criticize someone because of their heritage.

00:42:16.560 That's racist. Like, they're so fragile, they can't take a little bit of heat. As a politician,

00:42:21.500 as a leader of an official party, that's racist.

00:42:23.860 You nailed it. The perverse opposite is true. You're being racist by not criticizing him for

00:42:30.400 genuine issues, statements, what have you, that deserve criticism.

00:42:35.060 It's just like when women are treated with kid gloves and given all these opportunities and 1.00

00:42:38.760 all these accolades when they are doing the same job as men. It's like, I find that sexist and

00:42:43.340 insulting.

00:42:44.260 Well, you know, and that's a good point. I mean, you know, Catherine McKenna,

00:42:49.380 she hated the term climate Barbie.

00:42:53.040 She loved it.

00:42:54.200 No, she hated it.

00:42:54.980 She loved it, David. I talked to her. There's a video of me interviewing her and I don't bring it up.

00:42:59.660 I don't mention it. And she's like, she's ignoring my questions, ignoring my questions

00:43:03.400 about the millions and millions of dollars that went undocumented during her different 0.95

00:43:07.960 infrastructure projects. And she goes, Oh, I have a question for you. When are you going to stop

00:43:11.700 calling me climate Barbie? And I was like, I was, but, but she brought it up.

00:43:15.400 Oh, she loves it. Barbie's hot. And it's like, she loves that, that comparison. And I was like,

00:43:21.460 I had never heard that comparison because I was relatively new at the time. And I was like,

00:43:25.220 what? Like, can you answer my question? Or are you going to bring up the fact that you think you

00:43:30.600 look like Barbie again?

00:43:31.620 No, she's challenged other rebel reporters. And the reason why I think it's a valid nickname is

00:43:37.560 going back to when Justin Trudeau was first elected with a majority government. He went out

00:43:43.840 and made sure that there was a 50-50 gender split in cabinet. Now I'll tell you why that's wrong. 1.00

00:43:50.400 It's because you want to appoint on merit. And what about this, Catherine? What if there should be,

00:43:59.440 oh, I don't know, 60% woman as cabinet ministers because of their merit. So it kind of, in a way, 1.00

00:44:08.080 holds back women. So the term climate Barbie is basically a way of saying, are you there based 0.99

00:44:18.040 on merit or are you there based on your gender? It's simply put.

00:44:25.020 Yep. We have another chat from DRB1313, $20. Thank you very much. Is it mandatory for all rebel

00:44:33.020 employees to have a PAL? No. This could be a new employee benefit possession acquisition license. No.

00:44:39.700 But you know, you did bring it up, Catherine, and I've talked to Sheila and Sheila's a well-known

00:44:46.740 gun owner, of course, too. As a young lady, what made you decide to get your PAL?

00:44:55.400 Certainly not for self-defense. No. Okay. Certainly not. I just think it's important to know

00:45:02.340 the safety around a gun. I would love to know how to, I mean, I would like to know how to disarm

00:45:08.360 someone. So like, I would like to take Krav Maga in the future. But if I was to encounter a gun on

00:45:13.020 the street, I would like to know how it works. Or if I found a gun, or I would like to hunt as well.

00:45:17.960 I think it's important if you're going to eat meat, that you should know how to kill an animal

00:45:21.600 and eat it. And maybe like, there's other ways to kill animals with crossbows and whatnot. But that's

00:45:27.840 not really, it's not easy to do. It's cumbersome. So I think it's just important to know how guns

00:45:32.920 work and the safety around them. Hunting would be my next step. I would like to go skeet shooting.

00:45:38.000 I just want to know how they work and how to use them. I've never fired one. And people are so

00:45:41.640 terrified of them. And I think things that are scary, you should understand.

00:45:45.200 No. Good for you. And of course, being in an urban area, you know, there are police resources

00:45:51.920 to respond in hopefully a timely fashion to any kind of trouble that God forbid, you might get

00:45:58.380 into. But I know from when we discussed this the other day with Sheila Gunn-Reed, she's in a very

00:46:04.440 remote area of northern Alberta, it would take law enforcement on a good day, easily over half an hour

00:46:11.220 to get to her home. Can you imagine that there are home invaders kicking in the door? And you are 0.93

00:46:19.760 waiting a half hour, maybe 45 minutes, maybe over an hour. What are you supposed to do?

00:46:26.440 And this is this is the insidious thing about the Trudeau gun grab is that people like Sheila Gunn-Reed,

00:46:33.700 they want to take away their way of leveling the playing field if the bad guys ever come calling

00:46:40.600 and the law enforcement is not an option. Yeah, well, it's all when I was in my course,

00:46:46.700 we learned very, very simply and clearly, you don't have the right to use your gun to defend

00:46:51.640 yourself. The only way like if I was if there was a home invader coming to my home, and they had a gun

00:46:56.920 pointed at my head, I still wouldn't have the right to use a firearm against that person. The only way is if

00:47:02.480 they were like, I'm going to pull the trigger now. I'm going so and I would still get arrested

00:47:07.360 and charged, I would have to prove in court that I my life was an imminent danger. And that the only way I could

00:47:13.160 stop it was by using a firearm, they would say, well, couldn't you have kicked his leg? Couldn't

00:47:16.620 this is like there? There's really no room at all for using a weapon to defend yourself. And that's

00:47:21.560 the scariest thing. Because if you were 30 minutes away from police, and you have a gun, and you use

00:47:26.540 it to defend yourself, you're still going to jail. You know, it's funny what you say, couldn't you have

00:47:31.920 kicked his leg or something outrageous? Like that. It reminds me, folks, when I was with Sun News,

00:47:38.020 and I was on a panel with a liberal Marianne Mead Ward, very nice lady. I like her as a person. But 1.00

00:47:44.480 wow, in terms of ideology, we're talking cuckoo for Cocoa Pops. By the way, she has since been elected 0.87

00:47:50.640 as mayor of Burlington. It's amazing how people fail upwards in this country. But this, this very idea

00:47:57.260 of a home invasion example, it was in the news for some reason, I think there was a real life

00:48:02.280 news item about it. And I posed the question, you're a single woman with a child or children,

00:48:10.140 you have home invaders coming into your home. What are you supposed to do? And what she said,

00:48:16.620 Catherine, was, well, you run out the back door, and run to safety. No, no, no, no. When you're in

00:48:24.620 your home, that's the finish line. This is castle domain territory now, right? There's no place else to

00:48:31.340 run to, right? And if you live in the middle of nowhere. Yeah. And who's to say that the bad

00:48:36.140 guys might outrun you? And what if you have six kids? Yeah. And infants? Yeah. Elderly people?

00:48:41.900 I know. It was kind of like Marianne Mead Ward embracing the first rule of Zombieland, which is,

00:48:47.840 of course, cardio. But this is the insane opposition to somebody, a legal gun owner, fearful for his or her

00:48:57.720 life in a home invasion. Even then, what are you supposed to do? Die? We'll have a nice memorial

00:49:02.400 service for you. We'll put teddy bears and bundles of roses next to your front door. Give me a break. 1.00

00:49:07.820 Well, it's the politicians who have armed guards, like we mentioned at the very top of this

00:49:10.920 conversation. They're the ones that are like, you don't need a gun to defend yourself. And it's like,

00:49:14.860 okay, sir, but you have multiple people with guns defending you, Trudeau. And so what does that

00:49:21.500 tell us? His life is more valuable than anyone else's life. Of course. Because he's the son of

00:49:26.900 Trudeau. Allegedly. And yeah, we're getting into cash. No, no, no. Would never, never even dream of

00:49:36.580 it. Let's do another chat. Alrighty. So we have $5 from Frazier. Thank you very much. If you want to

00:49:43.220 curb lawlessness, shooters do this. Ban all shooter games. When I was 14, I bought my first gun, a 22 from

00:49:50.300 Canadian tire. When I was older, I bought a 12 millimeter, 1872 Mauser, I guess, Mauser,

00:49:57.280 1903. There's a lot of guns here. I'm just going to skip all that. That's good stuff. I brought them

00:50:02.520 home on a bus and nobody blinked an eye. I lived in Montreal. Great show. Oh, well, thank you so much,

00:50:08.420 Fraser. Yeah. You know, again, I almost caution people not to out themselves as gun owners. You might

00:50:16.440 be putting yourself on some sort of a list, but you know, it is all about virtue signaling. And I

00:50:21.000 know a couple of years in a row, I covered this event. The Toronto police had a program called

00:50:28.620 gun play. No way. And what it was, you come down to a police division and they'd have this outdoor

00:50:35.820 display and you turn in your gun and you get, well, politically correct toy, like a Nerf ball or

00:50:44.560 something like that. Oh, wait a minute, folks. I forgot to mention one teeny tiny detail.

00:50:49.560 You turn in your toy gun, right? They had a blitz for people to turn in toy guns. So how in blue hell

00:51:00.220 does that protect the citizens of Toronto from gangbangers that are mugging you, carjacking you,

00:51:07.480 or just, you know, going on a random gun spree? Can you, can you possibly make sense of that?

00:51:14.980 No. Catherine getting toy guns off the street? 0.99

00:51:17.480 Aren't they, aren't they banning airsoft guns? Yeah. Many of them. Yes. And we did a,

00:51:23.180 we did a piece went out to Mississauga airsoft. You know, this is not harmful at all, but this

00:51:28.460 was, this was just cap guns or the stuff you'd buy at Dollaram. Do they still have toy guns at

00:51:33.440 Dollaram or? I don't know. They have water guns still. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I was like, I feel

00:51:38.580 unsafe. Which the industry now calls water toys. They've taken the, uh, the gun. You know, I remember,

00:51:45.240 I'm old enough to remember on my iPhone emojis, there are these little characters on your phone.

00:51:50.500 Yes. I know that. They used to have a gun emoji. Oh, that's gone. A handgun. And I used it all the

00:51:56.480 time because it's hilarious. I'd just be like, like, you better get here quickly. And I'd put

00:51:59.980 the gun. Like I thought it was cute and funny, but they've removed it. And now you can only use

00:52:04.600 the water gun and it just doesn't, it doesn't hit. You know, but they still have the knife though.

00:52:09.560 It's so, well, uh, I'm surprised they have the knife because I was looking for, and maybe I'm not

00:52:13.920 looking in the right place. So I stand to be corrected. I was looking for things like, um, tanks,

00:52:19.100 cannons, you know, military equipment. There are no emojis for that. No, they have a bomb and a knife.

00:52:24.660 Oh, they have a bomb? Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. It's like one of those little ball bombs.

00:52:30.760 One of the worst examples of wokeism I ever saw was a musical artist performing at Young

00:52:37.160 Dundas Square in Toronto. And he was doing the Queen classic song, Bohemian Rhapsody. And there's

00:52:45.600 the line that says, put a gun against his head. He self-censored himself. So it was,

00:52:54.320 put a, against his head, right? Put a what, sir? I know. Put a what?

00:53:00.700 I couldn't believe it. You know? So it's almost like a forbidden word, uh, let alone, um, some

00:53:06.800 kind of implement anyways. All right. More chats. Yes. So we have one from AquaSkies,

00:53:11.360 36, 36, $1. Thank you very much. As a child of the seventies raised on Get Smart and Bugs Bunny.

00:53:17.480 I love those shows. What happened? Lucky Libs NDP need to go. Agree with you, David. Rejag

00:53:23.800 me. Thank you both. Well, AquaSkies, 36, 36. It's almost like there's a number missing

00:53:30.460 there. 22? Anyways, no, uh, you're quite right. And I have a, uh, we have a viewer in Hamilton

00:53:39.700 and he's doing me a great service. Folks, uh, CHCH, which is the Hamilton TV station is, um,

00:53:46.020 airing a lot of, uh, sitcoms from the sixties and seventies. Get Smart. Just all in the family.

00:53:52.540 Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You know, that's a good, that came up last night in a discussion with one

00:53:57.100 of our, uh, viewers. Um, I don't know if all in the family is being syndicated anywhere in North

00:54:03.100 America. Uh, but the point is we're talking, get smart. We're talking Gilligan's Island. We're

00:54:08.380 talking my three sons and CHCH goes out of its way to preview, like, get smart. Can I get as more

00:54:17.660 innocuous as that or, or Gilligan's Island? They view the episode and put trigger warnings, right?

00:54:25.640 So for example, there was a Gilligan's Island episode where they were worried about, um,

00:54:31.680 cannibalistic head hunting savages, uh, attacking them. And that triggers the cannibalistic

00:54:36.900 head hunting savages. Yeah. That puts a warning on the episode. Even though, by the way, in the

00:54:44.020 episode, the savages never show up, right? It was just a line of dialogue, you know? So, um,

00:54:50.820 yeah. Oh boy, we're in trouble, David. Oh, we are in trouble. I mean, I even wonder,

00:54:54.780 am I even able to pose the question for the ages, which is this, and I want to get a woman's opinion

00:55:00.180 on this. Ginger or Marianne? Uh, which one's the hot one? Well, that's the thing. Hotness is in the

00:55:07.660 eye of the beholder. Oh, is it like a Betty and Veronica thing? Exactly. There's like the girl

00:55:10.680 next door and then there's the- Yes. Yeah. Marianne's the cute one, right? Yes. Yeah. I would go with

00:55:14.600 Marianne. You're correct. I'm more of a Betty girl myself. Nine out of 10 men choose Marianne. Ginger,

00:55:19.020 just way too high maintenance. Yeah. High maintenance. I can relate. Um, we have $1 from

00:55:25.420 Noble Canadian. Thank you very much. If not already done, maybe Kat could make a video of

00:55:30.280 going through the PAL process. And a side note, Catherine, for next Starfleet captain and David

00:55:34.400 as science officer. Yes! Captain! Captain Kat. Thank you. I love that. You can be my science

00:55:41.380 officer. Okay. Make it so. No, I say that. Thank you very much. Thank you. Uh, Quester,

00:55:49.020 um, I think it's $5, I think? Yes. Or no. Oh, five libraries. Oh, five libraries. What is that?

00:55:56.420 Does it- Can anyone do a conversion for us? Because me being bear of little brain, uh,

00:56:01.220 this is beyond my skill set. Well, it's- It's something. So thank you, Quester. Yeah. Thank you

00:56:06.020 very much. You can't really defend yourself at all in Canada. My good friend had a drunk neighbor

00:56:10.460 trespass on his property and came at him in a threatening way and he defended himself. Punched the

00:56:14.720 guy a few times. He got charged and is now facing one-year house arrest and criminal record.

00:56:19.020 Wow. That's deadly assault with your fists? Non-deadly assault? Unbelievable. And you know

00:56:25.880 what I- I'm sorry to hear that story. It's grotesque. If someone is trespassing, well,

00:56:31.280 there's the first law being broken right away. But you know, Catherine, the camera never lies

00:56:36.760 and, uh, I'm a proponent. I mean, my vehicle has the dash cam on it. Um, but it's probably

00:56:43.360 a good idea given how weak our castle domain laws are in this country to get video surveillance

00:56:50.220 on your property. I'm, you know, it's sad that it's come to this, but if that is the truth,

00:56:55.640 that a drunken neighbor with trouble on his shirt trespassed onto his private property, what was he

00:57:02.540 supposed to do? I don't know. Unbelievable. I don't know. And what if that was a woman who 1.00

00:57:07.720 wasn't physically capable of punching this guy hard enough to, to stop him? Exactly. And this is a story

00:57:14.340 where no firearms were involved. Yeah, exactly. Not even a knife was involved. It was just this,

00:57:21.220 you know, we have to register our hands now, you know, give me a break. That's a horrible story.

00:57:27.360 I've been thinking about this all day. Oh, that's unfortunate. Well, that's all the,

00:57:32.460 the chats that we have for today. Okay. Well, you know, I see that, um, we just only have two minutes

00:57:39.540 to go before it's a one o'clock Eastern standard time. Um, I, I don't think we have any topics that,

00:57:47.480 uh, we can talk about in that amount of time, except another dire statistic, thanks to our

00:57:54.000 federal government, soaring food and food inflation has 72% of families with kids worried as well.

00:58:01.960 They should be. And I believe what was the, uh, the inflation rate 7.7% um, year to year, uh, which

00:58:10.200 is the highest recorded inflation in Canada since I think it was 1983. Just inflation. Oh yeah. And

00:58:18.900 again, you know, when it comes to, you know, the Trudeau liberals, uh, they're immune to this,

00:58:24.720 you know, they get around on private. They all got, they all got pay raises. I'm pretty sure

00:58:29.160 during the pandemic. Well, Trudeau did. I thought we were all in this together. Yeah.

00:58:33.380 No, that's not true. Unbelievable. Not even for a second. Well, folks, we're going to have to wrap

00:58:37.260 it here. I want to say a thank you to our wonderful producers behind the tinted glass. I see Olivia and

00:58:44.120 Efren and Danny and Danny. Yes. Thank you for reminding me of Danny. Thank you all so much

00:58:48.780 for tuning in and a special thank you to all those who gave some do re mi. That's how we

00:58:56.040 keep the equipment functioning here. We're not like the mainstream media where we

00:58:59.840 do a negative option billing out of your paycheck every two weeks, like Rogers used to do. And

00:59:06.300 Catherine, thank you for filling in. Thank you, David. Really appreciate it. Always a pleasure.

00:59:11.000 Of course. I will be back here tomorrow with the lovely and talented Sheila Gunn-Reed,

00:59:16.100 our chief reporter. In the meantime, stay sane.

00:59:20.360 Well, Canada Day is nearly upon us and that glorious and free country Canada. Well, it's been

00:59:30.460 under attack as of late by politicians like Justin Trudeau, who seem to be completely oblivious

00:59:36.660 to accountability and to Canadian principles. One of the ways we can hold politicians accountable

00:59:41.540 is by having strong independent media that is willing to ask tough questions and tell the

00:59:46.440 other side of the story. You can show your Canadian pride and support Rebel News by going
