Rebel News Podcast - DAILY ｜ Who's promoting bug eating today; Poilievre on Tamara Lich; 'Painfully high' inflation

00:00:00.000 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Rebel News live stream on this

00:00:20.740 a Thursday, July 21st, 2022. I'm David Menzies, and my co-host, well, let me tell you a little bit

00:00:30.000 about my co-host. You know, folks, today is National Junk Food Day, but my co-host, she refers to it

00:00:38.340 by its new name, and that would be National Edible Insect Day. She is the she-devil with a sword. 1.00

00:00:45.920 She is the Khaleesi of Northern Alberta. She is Sheila Gunn-Reed. Sheila, I have to stop giving 0.87

00:00:53.680 you those introductions when I have a sore throat, because I think I further in fame.

00:00:58.180 I know.

00:01:00.760 How are you doing, my friend?

00:01:02.920 I'm great, but I can tell you're scratchy, and your face is really red, so I think maybe we've

00:01:07.700 done something to your throat and your blood pressure, and if anybody was wondering, I'm

00:01:12.180 not paying attention to David as he's talking. I was thinking, oh my goodness, I forgot to check

00:01:18.640 what is the special day today, too, because I don't want to give all that fun to David Menzies,

00:01:23.260 and it is National Junk Food Day. It is Comic-Con. It is inviting-

00:01:30.900 Oh, you mean the Comic-Con in San Diego?

00:01:33.380 Yes.

00:01:34.080 Should I get the Robin suit out of storage, Sheila?

00:01:37.340 Is it back in storage? I don't feel like that thing ever gets put away to the back of

00:01:42.900 the closet. I feel like you dust that thing off more than you'd like to admit.

00:01:46.480 Yeah. I'm like Spider-Man or Superman. Underneath the suit, I'm wearing my superhero costume,

00:01:53.640 just in case I have to do the classic.

00:01:55.240 Yeah. It's also invite an alien, invite an alien to live with you day, and they don't mean like

00:02:06.020 illegal alien, they mean actual alien, like spaceman, come down, just live with me, I guess. I don't 0.98

00:02:14.080 know.

00:02:14.300 But wouldn't it make more sense for you to invite an illegal alien to live? Because the way I see it, 1.00

00:02:21.660 Sheila, is that if the space aliens are capable of interstellar travel, it's probably a pretty safe

00:02:31.180 bet they've got quarters on their giant warp-capable spaceships.

00:02:34.860 But it's the illegal aliens, you know, they mean- 1.00

00:02:38.720 Yeah, they don't need to bum a spot on your couch. Like, I just don't think that aliens who've

00:02:44.400 mastered, you know, light speed travel need to couch surf. I don't know. It just seems ridiculous.

00:02:51.520 It's also legal drinking age day, so that's fun. I don't know. Racial harmony day. We need a day 1.00

00:03:00.160 for that. I thought we would just get along. Take a monkey to lunch day. I feel like that would go

00:03:06.100 dangerously wrong. And it's Robin Williams' birthday.

00:03:11.180 No. And in this day and age of the monkey pox scare, are they crazy? Take a monkey to lunch?

00:03:17.760 We should be really keeping the monkeys behind cages, right? You know, monkeys are fantastic.

00:03:25.320 Monkeys are great circus acts.

00:03:27.340 Don't misunderstand, David. He's pro-monkey. Don't send us letters. 1.00

00:03:32.680 You know, I remember back in the 70s when the C&E was on in Toronto, Sheila, there used to be a

00:03:40.360 thing at Ontario Place called the Ford Family Circus. And man, what an epiphany I had about how

00:03:47.520 closely we are related to those simians. Because they had, I think his name was a chimpanzee called

00:03:54.740 Mr. Chips, and he was used in a TV series. And the ringmaster comes out, and he says,

00:04:01.460 ladies and gentlemen, chimps that can smoke a cigar, they are a dime a dozen in the circus world. 1.00

00:04:08.960 Mr. Chips can actually light his cigar. And sure enough, he lights his cigar on cue and starts puffing

00:04:15.820 it. And then he says, ladies and gentlemen, chimps that can ride a motorcycle, a dime a dozen in the 1.00

00:04:22.180 circus world. Mr. Chips is the only chimp that can kickstart his motorcycle. And Sheila, I swear to God, 0.98

00:04:30.000 he hopped on his Harley.

00:04:31.540 I saw this movie. Okay, it doesn't end well for humanity. We should not be teaching the monkeys

00:04:36.260 these things.

00:04:36.920 Yeah, and all I can keep thinking is, wait a minute, isn't this where things go wrong in the futuristic

00:04:43.360 Earth of conquest of the planet of the apes? You know, we teach, of course, they had an excuse. There

00:04:51.160 was a virus that came from space that killed all the dogs and cats on the planet. So obviously, the next pet

00:04:57.200 on the pecking list is gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees. But it went horribly wrong for humanity

00:05:05.960 in the Planet of the Apes series, the original one. So maybe we shouldn't be teaching these chimps 0.85

00:05:14.320 all these techniques they might take over. Or are we to fear from artificial intelligence, Sheila,

00:05:21.140 like a Skynet, if you will?

00:05:22.820 I think it's a bit of both. I think we should worry about both. I have the mental capacity

00:05:28.020 to worry about both. And in the end, who's going to be able to afford a monkey with the

00:05:33.300 way inflation is going? But we'll get to that in a second. We should tell everybody what we're

00:05:37.460 doing because we're five minutes into the show and we've talked about smoking monkeys.

00:05:41.780 So and writing and writing. So let's get into the news of the day. So this is a Rebel News

00:05:48.140 daily live stream. We're currently streaming on YouTube, but there are things that we cannot

00:05:51.300 say on YouTube. For example, we cannot question the advice of a public health officer, even though

00:05:57.140 public health officers question their own advice, depending on the day. Anthony Fauci says one thing

00:06:02.560 one day, Teresa Tam, one thing one day. Likewise, it's Dina Hinshaw. But you can't point that out

00:06:08.200 because then you get canceled. Anyway, they get to keep their jobs being the highest paid bureaucrats

00:06:13.080 on the face of the earth. And if a meager person like me points out that maybe they changed their

00:06:17.540 mind a little too much to trust. Oh, we're done. Yeah. So if we get to there, I think we might even

00:06:24.200 be there. So I should be careful. But if we get to that point, we're going to cut the YouTube feed.

00:06:29.080 But the good news is we're streaming on Getter and we're also on Rumble and Odyssey and on Rumble and

00:06:34.880 Odyssey. If you want to support the work that we do completely willingly, you can leave us something

00:06:38.540 called a Rumble rant. That's their paid chat. We'll read it on air. And on Odyssey, it's called a

00:06:44.420 Hyperchat. There's a couple of different ways to do that. You can use their library cryptocurrency if

00:06:48.560 you're so inclined or regular old fiat currency. Send us your question, comment, story idea,

00:06:56.440 whatever it is. We'll read it on air. And it's a great way to show support for the work that we do

00:07:02.300 because we realize that Justin Trudeau is already digging into your pocket to force you to support

00:07:08.340 the mainstream media. So you don't have a lot of money left. And we appreciate that you choose to

00:07:13.540 support us. And it allows you your say. So again, unlike the mainstream media, they take your

00:07:18.500 money. They close the comment section. We're doing the opposite here. We want to hear from you.

00:07:23.560 And Sheila, holy coincidence. Look what's on the top of our list of topics worthy of discussion. It is

00:07:30.800 who's promoting bug eating today? Today on National Junk Food Day. Can you imagine?

00:07:36.880 Who is Sheila promoting eating grasshoppers and maggots and crickets and the rest of them? 1.00

00:07:47.100 You know, it is the people who do not want you thinking clearly, obviously.

00:07:53.020 You know, I was just talking about this with Kian K2 Simone. These people are insane. 1.00

00:07:59.920 The war, I have like, I'm that person with the, you know, like the things on the bulletin board where

00:08:06.240 you're trying to connect all the lines. That's me talking about the war on cattle. And I don't want

00:08:10.640 to say cows because cows are the female of the species. And it's just not that. It's more like a

00:08:14.880 war on cattle as a species, steers, cows, dairy, everything. It's a war on that because it makes for

00:08:25.140 weaker, dumber people. Ruminants are a magical creature. I look at these things for a Christian 1.00

00:08:32.260 worldview. This is the miracle of God's design. When you see that animals like ruminants, specifically

00:08:38.540 ruminants, cows, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, deer, moose, musk ox, whatever, they take things that

00:08:50.020 you can't digest, cellulose, and they turn them into proteins that you can digest, steak. And there's,

00:08:56.280 in all of this, there's the war on nitrogen happening. Because guess what's a building block

00:09:02.080 of amino acids? Nitrogen. So you, all of a sudden you stop producing the food the animals eat.

00:09:10.320 You're not using fertilizer to fertilize your hay or anything like that. And then you need fewer cattle

00:09:17.240 because you can't use nitrogen. And then all of a sudden it trickles down to,

00:09:23.420 oh, you're protein deficient. You can't think clearly. And your WEF overlords take care of,

00:09:29.480 take over the world. And you're too dumb and weak to fight back. So while they say this stuff is about

00:09:34.180 climate change and methane and, and we're worried about that stuff. No, it's a knock on effect to

00:09:40.020 create dumber, weaker people so that the elites can take over the world. And you're just sitting there

00:09:45.060 entranced by your TV because your brain doesn't work properly.

00:09:48.820 You know, I think you're onto something. I was in fact going to ask you what the unspoken strategy

00:09:54.620 is. And you've just outlined it, Sheila, to make us, I guess, weaker, dumber, more compliant.

00:10:02.140 Although it's so sad to see so much of the population still wearing face masks when they're

00:10:07.500 young and healthy and outdoors. So they've, I think they're halfway there.

00:10:12.460 Those same people, you ask them, those same people, how much meat they eat in a week.

00:10:16.980 Yep.

00:10:17.280 And I think there's a direct correlation. I think that,

00:10:20.340 you know, the graph is a circle there, just overlaid.

00:10:23.400 And, you know, Sheila, the thing is, and I'm really not trying to be insulting. It's just based

00:10:28.460 on observation. But when I have interviewed those people who are a hundred percent vegan,

00:10:35.320 which is beyond vegetarian, I mean, they're not even having eggs or milk products, you name it.

00:10:42.160 There are certain characteristics and it's that they look anemic. There's no way they're going

00:10:49.800 to make a football team. They're underweight. And I guess with the obesity rate in North America,

00:10:57.140 that's maybe a good thing, but always, as they say, too much of a good thing is a bad thing.

00:11:01.760 And I would argue that, you know, homo sapiens, much like raccoons, we're omnivorous. We're

00:11:10.180 supposed to eat not just, you know, the leafy green products. I'm nothing against that. I love

00:11:16.900 a good salad as much as any hardcore vegan. But as you mentioned, part of our diet should be meat

00:11:24.700 based. There are some essential vitamins and nutrients that you get from meat that you don't

00:11:29.940 get from other food groups. Well, and here's the thing. I don't really care what you eat. I eat a

00:11:35.640 certain way. I don't want the government to manipulate the market so that I cannot, so that

00:11:41.080 my behavior is forced into vegetarianism or veganism. Our stomachs do not reflect that we should be eating

00:11:50.680 a vegetarian diet. Again, that's why ruminants are magical. They have these diet, these stomachs that

00:11:55.940 ferment all along the way and turn the things we can't eat into the things we can. My problem is this

00:12:01.700 forcing us to eat crickets nonsense and to eat less meat because some government weirdo says that we

00:12:09.560 must. For example, this article in the BBC, which is absolute garbage. I don't believe a word this guy

00:12:16.400 says. The headline is, why I prefer eating grasshoppers to beef. There's no possible way.

00:12:24.160 This is nonsense. Nobody prefers grasshoppers to beef unless you're a lizard. And even then,

00:12:31.260 I want to talk to the lizards because I don't believe that either. It feels to me like a little bit

00:12:40.460 like tourism and poverty. Like you're taking a tourist view of somebody else's poverty. Because

00:12:48.520 they say in here, for most people in Europe and the US, the idea of eating crickets and grasshoppers

00:12:53.720 can seem revolting. But they're a popular snack in Africa and Asia. Not only are they packed with

00:13:00.300 nutrients, but here's the rub. They are less harmful to the climate too. I don't believe,

00:13:07.060 I refuse to believe because it's absolute nonsense that if you put a burger in front of somebody in

00:13:15.100 the developing world or a bowl of maggots, they're going to choose the maggots. I refuse to believe 1.00

00:13:21.200 it. This is protein out of necessity, out of desperation and not choice. You nailed it. I've

00:13:30.140 heard estimates that up to 2 billion people on the planet consume insects as part of their daily diet.

00:13:37.500 What they don't tell you is that unfortunately, these are people in third world nations that don't 0.74

00:13:44.460 have a choice, that don't have money to buy another type of nutrient. They are forced into eating these

00:13:51.960 bugs. Like you just said, a T-bone steak and a bowl of mealworms. What right-minded person is going to

00:13:59.660 go for the worms. It's ridiculous. That is at a necessity to stay alive. Yeah. There it is. 2

00:14:07.220 billion. The problem is we should be saying 6 billion people eat beef and we can help the other

00:14:16.420 2 billion do that too. Yeah. You know, this idea that there should be a war on, on ruminants is crazy.

00:14:22.780 Vast herds of bison grazed North America. They battered the grassland with their hooves. They

00:14:33.540 fertilized the soil. They did amazing things. They're gone now, but they're replaced by cattle and

00:14:41.040 there's nothing wrong with that. This is crazy. This is absolute gaslighting. Nobody wants to do this.

00:14:46.660 Unbelievable. Nobody. Yeah. Nobody. The people pushing this, there's no possible way. For example,

00:14:54.960 do you think anybody at the World Economic Forum is turning down their prime rib for a bowl of

00:15:01.240 crickets? Never. Never in a million years. So as the saying goes, don't tell me, show me. So the next

00:15:07.400 time, uh, Claude Schwab has an audience, get out a bowl of bugs and start eating them and pretend if

00:15:14.800 you're able to, uh, that you're enjoying that as opposed to you're holding down some kind of a

00:15:20.800 vomitous episode in the digestive process. Yeah. So I would say it's not that, you know,

00:15:29.360 unfortunately impoverished people in the third world are setting an example for us. It's how about 1.00

00:15:35.800 this? Why don't we change things for those people so they don't have to eat this? I mean,

00:15:40.180 I'm sure if you went out to people living in mud huts and utter poverty, Sheila, what do they want?

00:15:47.420 They probably want a modest home with hot and cold running water. Maybe a Honda and a chicken.

00:15:52.740 Yeah. Maybe a Honda Civic in the driveway. How about that? Yeah. You know, a steak dinner once in a

00:15:58.600 while. How about that? I mean, the idea that we are filthy consumers because we've achieved a nice

00:16:07.280 level of lifestyle and that we shouldn't be elevating people in the third world to that 1.00

00:16:12.400 lifestyle, but in a sense, coming down to a third world level in the name of whatever climate change,

00:16:19.440 for example, that's preposterous. I've seen studies and I, I just have, I'm really over the last two

00:16:29.560 years, probably I've really dug down on the issue of nutrition because I see the overlays of the world

00:16:35.260 economic forum and I'm starting to see the big picture on all of this stuff. And instead of feeding

00:16:42.460 people in the developing world, crickets, why don't we give them a creature that eats the cricket? 0.98

00:16:48.880 For example, why aren't we encouraging chickens? You know, you don't even have to eat the chicken.

00:16:56.840 I've seen studies that eating an egg a day, one egg a day, again, eggs are super food,

00:17:03.860 the right proportion of fat and protein for the developing mind of a child. Eating an egg a day

00:17:12.560 can significantly increase growth and reduce stunting due to malnutrition. One egg a day

00:17:19.400 by 47% for kids in the developing world. And we're telling these kids they should eat the cricket?

00:17:26.120 No, we should be providing them or at least encouraging chickens. Chickens forage, they lay 0.90

00:17:33.040 eggs. You really, if you have a proper habitat for a chicken, especially in some of these warmer

00:17:37.920 climates, chickens cannot be happier. They're just running around eating bugs and laying eggs and eggs

00:17:44.360 are a super food for the developing brains of children in the, in the developing world.

00:17:49.080 Why aren't we doing that? Instead, we're saying we need to eat maggots.

00:17:53.200 And to go full circle from how we began the conversation, a vegan won't eat an egg,

00:17:57.360 you know?

00:17:58.240 No.

00:17:59.300 And there you just laid out the science of why, you know, an egg is so full of great nutrients

00:18:04.900 for you. It's unbelievable. We got another edible topic, something that's happening on the other

00:18:11.180 side of the world in Japan. But before we move on, because we mentioned cows, Sheila, yesterday,

00:18:15.320 I'm driving along Teston Road in Vaughan, not very far from sneaky Patrick Brown's secret headquarters

00:18:22.400 that we exposed him on. And there's a patch of farmland. One day, within a decade, I'm sure

00:18:28.660 it'll be a subdivision. But that's besides the point. I saw something, and I should have pulled

00:18:33.000 over and photographed or filmed this, but I figure you being out in cattle country, you would know

00:18:38.200 better. I saw all the cows, and there must have been about 50 of them. And they were walking in the

00:18:44.960 field, single file, like how the elephants at the circuit, and I've never seen that. It was like

00:18:51.440 they were, like, what is that? I mean, why are they walking single file? Have you ever seen such a

00:18:56.640 thing?

00:18:57.980 Did you have a storm yesterday?

00:19:00.020 It was getting, yeah, there was some, like, volatility in the weather.

00:19:05.300 So, livestock can react to changes in the barometric pressure. And they were probably

00:19:12.040 walking single file back to the barn, instead of stampeding back to the barn.

00:19:16.320 Oh, look, yeah.

00:19:17.580 Yeah. See, and look, the clouds are gathering up. So when you see this, like, for example,

00:19:22.420 when I was a kid, my mom was like, the neighbors would call her kind of witchy, because she would 1.00

00:19:29.300 watch the animals to predict the weather. And she was almost always right. And I, now looking back

00:19:35.220 I wish I had paid more attention to what she was saying and what she was talking about instead

00:19:38.720 of just thinking she's crazy. But the changes in the barometric pressure, you will see animals

00:19:44.900 will start walking single file back to the barn. They don't stampede, they'll just head

00:19:49.080 to the barn. And that's what they do. And that's how you sort of predict the weather sometimes.

00:19:54.440 I want to apologize to our viewers, because what I thought I saw yesterday was kind of like

00:19:58.480 seeing a Sasquatch in the wild. I mean, I've never seen cows walk single file. And

00:20:04.200 t'was ever thus, apparently. Shitty boy, country mouse, you know, there you go. Okay. On the

00:20:11.580 topic of what's on your menu or isn't, we have a video here. Apparently, oh my goodness gracious,

00:20:19.980 holy Greta Thunberg, Batman, Japan's sushi culture is under threat from shockers, climate change.

00:20:28.440 Check it out. Everything is under threat from climate change. Everything.

00:20:31.900 twisted news, surprise even though it seems to be held pretty deep inuu�도,

00:20:35.000 and it doesn't work properly.

00:20:35.960 It's the details of the audience and this clueless.

00:20:37.400 I represent the trio of the beauty of a butterfly and scene of the requirements.

00:20:39.360 It sounds like photosopold, Lil Verne, but happens to be held intact.

00:20:42.220 So Banash commentaries isn't offered with most deadly things,

00:20:43.760 such as a butterfly and one lower,sourced speciesosity and Different Earth

00:20:47.000 it happens to be seeing objects in natural rules.

00:20:48.400 The moment is intensively in such a

00:20:59.960 They don't know that you're simply the way you put it on this.

00:21:29.960 They don't know if you put it on this way.

00:21:36.960 If you put it on this way, you don't have to worry about it.

00:21:44.960 In Japan, it's called Daishu.

00:21:48.960 It's called Daishu.

00:21:51.960 It's called Daishu.

00:21:53.960 It's called Daishu.

00:21:55.960 It's called Daishu.

00:22:05.960 It's called Daishu.

00:22:12.960 Okay, I've had enough of their lies here for a second.

00:22:32.960 Because you're watching this and you're thinking that you'd have to think that Japan was on another planet to think that they don't have access to wasabi, which literally grows everywhere.

00:22:44.960 So why do you only have to use Japanese wasabi?

00:22:47.960 They grow wasabi in British Columbia.

00:22:49.960 It grows in Russia, Korea.

00:22:51.960 So maybe they're having a bad year for wasabi in Japan, but that does not mean that it is not anywhere else in the world.

00:23:00.960 I just Googled because you can do that now to fact check the World Economic Forum.

00:23:06.960 Skip Jack Tuna, the stocks are increasing.

00:23:10.960 And they're saying, you know, like it could cause a problem with Skip Jack Tuna stocks.

00:23:16.960 But globally, Skip Jack Tuna stocks are increasing.

00:23:20.960 So you can get Skip Jack Tuna again.

00:23:24.960 Maybe they're having a rough year in Japan, but it's increasing other places.

00:23:29.960 And these people tell me globalization is good.

00:23:31.960 So you have access to global markets.

00:23:33.960 By the way, I'm also reliably informed by the World Economic Forum that we shouldn't be eating meat because of climate change.

00:23:38.960 So in the end, I guess if there's no such thing as sushi anymore, I guess that's a good thing, according to the World Economic Forum.

00:23:46.960 So these people got to pick a lane.

00:23:48.960 No, I agree.

00:23:49.960 And by the way, Sheila, I see they were talking about sushi, sashimi, you know, those staples being threatened.

00:23:57.960 But when it comes to wasabi, would we really be that bad off if wasabi disappeared?

00:24:04.960 I have a female friend a few years ago.

00:24:06.960 I like it.

00:24:07.960 Well, I'll tell you, in moderation, correct?

00:24:10.960 Because she had this big, you know, dome of wasabi on her plate and she thought it was something like lime ice cream.

00:24:20.960 So she took a big heaping spoonful of it because it's it's green.

00:24:24.960 It looks so nice.

00:24:25.960 And she went screaming to the restaurant like her head was on fire. 0.79

00:24:31.960 So, you know, I guess wasabi, you know, we have alternative hot sauces on standby if that disappears.

00:24:39.960 But anyways.

00:24:40.960 But yeah, you're right.

00:24:41.960 Further to my theory that green things are trying to kill you.

00:24:44.960 You know?

00:24:46.960 Yeah.

00:24:47.960 From the Incredible Hulk on down.

00:24:50.960 But you raise a good point, Sheila, because there's a blip right now in the fishery in Japan.

00:24:57.960 We if it's been for a year, a couple of years, what have you.

00:25:02.960 I saw the projection.

00:25:03.960 They're looking ahead to 2050, even looking ahead 30 years from now, almost.

00:25:09.960 That is just a blink of an eyelash when it comes to geological time.

00:25:13.960 You know, a year, a decade, a century.

00:25:17.960 That's nothing.

00:25:18.960 And things come and go.

00:25:20.960 And I mean, in the province you're living in, Sheila, can you imagine?

00:25:24.960 Tens of millions of years ago, dinosaurs roamed Alberta.

00:25:28.960 It was a tropical grassland.

00:25:30.960 So, you know, this idea that.

00:25:32.960 A hundred years ago, buffalo roamed the plains.

00:25:35.960 There you go.

00:25:36.960 These millions and millions of buffalo roamed the plains.

00:25:41.960 They're gone now.

00:25:42.960 They've been replaced by cattle and agriculture.

00:25:44.960 It happens.

00:25:45.960 Yeah.

00:25:46.960 Yeah.

00:25:47.960 Last year was a terrible crop for hay, a year for hay.

00:25:50.960 Today, it's booming with hay.

00:25:52.960 Things change.

00:25:53.960 Fish follow the ocean currents, too.

00:25:56.960 They're subject to, you know, how warm the water is and how cool the water is.

00:26:00.960 That's where they end up.

00:26:01.960 So things change.

00:26:03.960 What do you want me to do about it?

00:26:04.960 Yeah.

00:26:05.960 And because there's one bad season.

00:26:07.960 It's just how people, you know, conflate weather with the environment and climate.

00:26:12.960 Right.

00:26:13.960 And right now, everyone's pointing to record hot temperatures in Europe.

00:26:17.960 Aha! 0.94

00:26:18.960 See?

00:26:19.960 The jury's out.

00:26:20.960 The jury's in, rather.

00:26:21.960 Climate change is real.

00:26:22.960 This is an example of the climate emergency, the climate crisis.

00:26:25.960 No, we've only had accurate temperature forecasting for 300 years.

00:26:30.960 Now, three centuries might sound like a big deal, but it's not.

00:26:34.960 Again, I go back to what I said.

00:26:35.960 It's a blink of an eyelash in terms of historical temperature keeping.

00:26:40.960 So there you have it.

00:26:42.960 And I feel bad for the fishermen.

00:26:44.960 But is it fishermen or fisher folk?

00:26:46.960 I know the liberals want us to call them.

00:26:48.960 It's fisher folk.

00:26:49.960 Remember?

00:26:50.960 Fisher folk.

00:26:51.960 I think it was 2018.

00:26:52.960 What was the name of that guy?

00:26:55.960 I don't know.

00:26:56.960 What an idiot, though, standing up in the House of Commons saying fisher folk.

00:26:58.960 He's the Liberal MP for Woodbridge.

00:27:01.960 Yeah.

00:27:02.960 And even when he was saying-

00:27:03.960 Big fishery out there?

00:27:04.960 What's that?

00:27:05.960 Big fishery in Woodbridge?

00:27:07.960 I think it's landlocked, actually.

00:27:09.960 Yeah.

00:27:10.960 If there's any bridges in Woodbridge, it's over a stream or a pond.

00:27:14.960 Yeah.

00:27:15.960 But it was so funny, folks, because we did a piece on it.

00:27:19.960 And even when he's trying to be politically correct, I think three times he flubs and has

00:27:24.960 to apologize for using fishermen instead of fisher folks.

00:27:28.960 That's how unnatural that word is, even for a woke Liberal member of Parliament.

00:27:34.960 Unbelievable.

00:27:35.960 But, well, let's also-

00:27:37.960 We have an ad break.

00:27:38.960 Pardon me?

00:27:39.960 I think we have an ad break right now.

00:27:41.960 That's right.

00:27:42.960 Yes, we do.

00:27:43.960 Adam Sos here for Rebel News.

00:27:45.960 You know, our company is growing quickly and we'd actually like for your company to grow, too.

00:27:51.960 That's why this ad space that I'm speaking through right now is actually available for you to purchase.

00:27:55.960 So instead of people listening to me, they could actually be learning about your company, learning about your business.

00:28:01.960 If this interests you, if this is an opportunity you'd like to capitalize on, send us an email at ads at rebelnews.com.

00:28:07.960 Well, I mean, talk about beef.

00:28:12.960 It looks like our colleague Adam, he's really beefing up.

00:28:15.960 He must be hitting the gym.

00:28:17.960 Yes.

00:28:19.960 Speaking of buffaloes roaming the prairie.

00:28:22.960 Well, maybe if he ever comes back out East, maybe Adam and I should get into the squared circle so I can learn the ropes in case there's a beckoning career for him in professional wrestling.

00:28:35.960 Like, I know anything about that other than being a viewer.

00:28:39.960 But no, and by the way, Sheila, as an update to your excellent reporting in Adams, too, I believe, regarding warning labels on Canadian ground beef, they're backing away from that.

00:28:53.960 Are they not?

00:28:54.960 Yes.

00:28:55.960 Thank God.

00:28:56.960 One, public pressure and the lobby groups here actually did their job.

00:29:01.960 I think it's not the Cattlemen's Association anymore.

00:29:05.960 They went woke to very recently.

00:29:07.960 I think it's the Canadian Cattle Association.

00:29:09.960 They've dropped the Cattlemen's Association.

00:29:11.960 I don't know how many female ranchers were upset about that, but they dropped that. 1.00

00:29:17.960 Anyway, that aside, they actually did their job by putting pressure on the Ag Minister and the CFIA and the federal government.

00:29:25.960 There we go.

00:29:26.960 A victory indeed.

00:29:27.960 Sheila, that example of wokeism makes no sense.

00:29:30.960 You know, so you're telling me they went from the Canadian Cattlemen's Association to the Canadian Cattle Association.

00:29:37.960 So that suggests that it's actually an association of cows and not the people.

00:29:43.960 They're rising up.

00:29:44.960 We have to be careful.

00:29:45.960 Yeah, that do the animal husbandry. 0.93

00:29:48.960 Right?

00:29:49.960 I mean, why wouldn't they go Canadian Cattle Person Association?

00:29:53.960 Because at least that would be more accurate.

00:29:56.960 Right?

00:29:57.960 I don't know.

00:29:58.960 I don't know.

00:29:59.960 I don't know.

00:30:00.960 I can't imagine that any lady ranchers were mad about this. 1.00

00:30:03.960 No.

00:30:04.960 Whatsoever.

00:30:05.960 And when you have female anglers, they don't care if you call them fishermen. 1.00

00:30:10.960 You know, and the CBC has an even more ridiculous term.

00:30:14.960 I think they're called fishers.

00:30:16.960 Which, you know, to describe both male and female.

00:30:18.960 That's an animal.

00:30:19.960 A weasel.

00:30:20.960 That's a bird.

00:30:21.960 Isn't it?

00:30:22.960 No.

00:30:23.960 And a weasel.

00:30:24.960 Yeah.

00:30:25.960 Yeah.

00:30:26.960 Yeah.

00:30:27.960 Speaking of Patrick.

00:30:28.960 No, that's a segue for another.

00:30:30.960 Yeah.

00:30:31.960 No, I see Pierre Poliev is in the news and he is one of the politicians who is not afraid

00:30:40.960 to talk about Tamara Leach.

00:30:42.960 That would be our homegrown political prisoner. 0.73

00:30:45.960 Yeah, that's how it works here, folks.

00:30:48.960 If you have wrong thought to the liberal government, you are incarcerated.

00:30:54.960 If you murder an ally and partially blind another one, you get an eight figure check.

00:30:59.960 That would be Omar Khadr, of course.

00:31:01.960 Funny how these liberals work, isn't it?

00:31:03.960 But do we have some video on Pierre Poliev?

00:31:06.960 Yes, we do.

00:31:07.960 So let's hear what he has to say about Tamara Leach.

00:31:11.960 What's your idea and opinion about Tamara Leach?

00:31:15.960 I was a former political prisoner in Iran and it is hard for me to see that Tamara Leach

00:31:21.960 is behind the bar.

00:31:23.960 As a prime minister, what would you do to make sure that Canada doesn't have any political

00:31:29.960 prisoner?

00:31:30.960 So, first thing is, as a prime minister, I will not control who goes to prison because

00:31:37.960 I am not responsible for making arrests or making judgments.

00:31:45.960 Police and judges must make those decisions.

00:31:49.960 The last thing you want is a country where politicians choose who goes to jail.

00:31:54.960 Because then, can you imagine if Justin Trudeau had that personal power?

00:31:58.960 It would be a disaster.

00:31:59.960 So I can't, I'm not going to tell you who's going to, what kind of sentence anyone is going

00:32:04.960 to get because it's not the role of a prime minister.

00:32:07.960 That's the job of police to lay charges, for crown attorneys to prosecute charges, for

00:32:12.960 defensive lawyers to defend the charge, against the charge, and for judges and juries to deliver

00:32:19.960 verdicts and sentences.

00:32:21.960 Do you consider that the situation against Tamara Leach is unfair?

00:32:25.960 Again, I'm not, it's not my role as an aspiring prime minister.

00:32:32.960 I don't make those kinds of judgments.

00:32:34.960 Okay, may I give you this to you?

00:32:36.960 Thanks so much.

00:32:37.960 No, that's why.

00:32:38.960 Make Canada kind again.

00:32:40.960 Thank you guys.

00:32:41.960 Make Canada kind again.

00:32:43.960 Well, I believe in kindness, that's for sure.

00:32:46.960 Thank you so much.

00:32:47.960 Thanks guys.

00:32:48.960 Well, what do you make of that exchange, Sheila?

00:32:50.960 Look, he's not wrong when he says that the prime minister should not have the power over

00:32:55.960 the courts and the police.

00:32:56.960 But the follow up I would have liked to have heard was, that being said, you should not be

00:33:03.960 arrested for peacefully protesting your government and we need to examine the use of the emergencies

00:33:07.960 act immediately because it was too quickly invoked.

00:33:11.960 Um, and the treatment of the people arrested under it has been, um, unfair.

00:33:17.960 And, um, I've, I don't really know what the word is, but, um, you know, when you look

00:33:24.960 and see, I was looking this morning because I was, uh, interviewing Roman Babber for Ezra

00:33:31.960 show, which is why I have appropriate attire on for television today.

00:33:35.960 I try to look nice when I do Ezra show, uh, mine, I can sort of just slum it, but Ezra

00:33:40.960 show, it's another story.

00:33:42.960 Cardinal Zen, Cardinal Zen was arrested by the Chinese police.

00:33:47.960 He's the Catholic Cardinal from Hong Kong.

00:33:51.960 And he's been an outspoken, uh, critic of the Chinese state and the communist government.

00:33:58.960 He was arrested by the communists and released on bail later that afternoon.

00:34:05.960 I think a couple hours later, after he was arrested by authorities in Hong Kong, he was

00:34:11.960 out on bail quicker than Tamara Leach.

00:34:13.960 And he protested the communists.

00:34:16.960 Tamara protested Justin Trudeau.

00:34:18.960 That is what, that's the problem here.

00:34:21.960 Tamara, fine. 0.88

00:34:23.960 They charge her with mischief, but her incarceration has been absolutely dead.

00:34:27.960 Absolutely disproportionate and political.

00:34:30.960 And I don't think it's controversial for a conservative who wants to be in charge of the

00:34:34.960 country to say that.

00:34:35.960 You're so right.

00:34:36.960 And, um, Sheila, let's not forget the reason, the apparent reason for the incarceration.

00:34:42.960 She was getting the George Jonas freedom award at a dinner in Toronto, uh, last month.

00:34:48.960 Uh, I was there as well as Ezra and other members of the rebel news team.

00:34:52.960 Uh, and what harm did she do? 0.99

00:34:55.960 What harm did she do?

00:34:56.960 She got up and she made like a half hour long speech. 0.97

00:34:58.960 It was unbelievable.

00:35:00.960 There she is.

00:35:01.960 And, um, what did she ever make a call to violence?

00:35:06.960 Did she ever make a call to protest?

00:35:08.960 Like, come on.

00:35:09.960 Precisely the opposite.

00:35:10.960 Yes.

00:35:11.960 She calls for peace, constantly calls for peace.

00:35:14.960 You know, and she talked about, you know, the one resounding thing she said, Sheila, that,

00:35:21.960 you know, stayed with me, was she talked about how, if you look at a Chihuahua, right?

00:35:27.960 Pretty much totally dependent on human care in terms of feeding, giving it water, giving it shelter.

00:35:33.960 And yet the Chihuahua is 98% of a DNA match with the great noble wolf, right?

00:35:42.960 Who is free and doesn't need any help from anyone.

00:35:46.960 And I guess the point she was making was that, you know, those of us who cherish freedom, the way it can be taken away from us, the way we can be reduced from wolves into Chihuahuas is actually quite frightening.

00:36:01.960 Now, how is that considered hate speech?

00:36:04.960 She said many other things, none of which were hateful, none of which was even urging people to demonstrate or protest or start a convoy.

00:36:12.960 But for some reason, her being at that dinner, she was amongst other undesirables, I guess.

00:36:20.960 It is an outrage, Sheila.

00:36:22.960 It is an absolute outrage that this woman is behind bars.

00:36:26.960 And I would say, you know, when Pierre Polyev was talking about the prime minister shouldn't be the decision maker in terms of influencing courts and police, I would say we're already there.

00:36:39.960 I would say Justin Trudeau does influence or tries to influence both justices and police agencies, law enforcement agencies.

00:36:51.960 So I think we've already hit that odious benchmark already, Sheila.

00:36:58.960 Not only that, the crown prosecutor in this case is a donor to the Liberal Party of Canada.

00:37:04.960 And not just an incidental donor, like a $17,000 high value donor that gets invited to exclusive Justin Trudeau events.

00:37:13.960 Yep.

00:37:14.960 These are invite only for your best and brightest.

00:37:17.960 So we've got a problem here.

00:37:19.960 And again, I agree, we don't want the prime minister meddling in the independent court system.

00:37:26.960 But unfortunately, that's not what we have here.

00:37:29.960 We have a political incarceration.

00:37:31.960 And so I want to hear someone who's campaigning to be the next prime minister of Canada say, clearly, we've got a problem with her being a political prisoner. 0.99

00:37:42.960 There are political ties to the people involved.

00:37:44.960 Her treatment is disproportionate. 0.95

00:37:46.960 The law used to lock her up was disproportionate, should never have been invoked.

00:37:51.960 We need to look at all those issues and all those issues can be addressed without the prime minister sticking his hand directly into the courts.

00:37:59.960 A hundred percent.

00:38:00.960 And also, I'm not trying to make this about me, but look what happened to me back in December when I was on a sidewalk hoping to scrum Justin Trudeau.

00:38:10.960 And I was manhandled by his Royal Canadian mounted henchmen.

00:38:16.960 And I am sure, Sheila, the reason for that, because they know who we are.

00:38:23.960 I was there with Lincoln Jay.

00:38:25.960 I have the Rebel News mic flash out.

00:38:27.960 They know we mean no harm.

00:38:29.960 And I am positive we'll never be able to prove it.

00:38:33.960 And we have our first court appearance in regards to our civil suit in September that Trudeau saw me and he told his thugs, give them the works.

00:38:44.960 You know, I'm tired of this SOB embarrassing me by shouting questions from a distance that are impolite, you know, and you can see the video coverage there.

00:38:57.960 Also gave me COVID that night, probably something else we can't prove, but it was uncanny, the timing, because you sent along that article from mainstream media, ranging from the CBC to the National Post, that indicated that half of those thugs.

00:39:14.960 They had COVID.

00:39:15.960 Yeah, half of those thugs were COVID positive and they got right into my grill.

00:39:20.960 And I had been healthy without anything, not even a headache for more than two years until that encounter.

00:39:27.960 Again, you were out for like six weeks.

00:39:29.960 Correct.

00:39:30.960 Yeah, it really it really did number on me.

00:39:34.960 So that's my theory, Sheila.

00:39:37.960 And if that isn't an example of the prime minister tainting or influencing law enforcement, I don't know what is.

00:39:47.960 Just for context, because this news broke yesterday.

00:39:53.960 I guess I'll go back a little.

00:39:56.960 The trucker who killed 16 people and injured another 13 in catastrophic ways.

00:40:07.960 He was released on a thousand dollars bail.

00:40:11.960 Jesus.

00:40:12.960 The driver of the truck was given.

00:40:16.960 So this is I'm going back to when he was initially charged before he was convicted.

00:40:23.960 He was given after killing 16 and injuring another 13 in Humboldt.

00:40:30.960 He after he blew a stop sign and drove into the Humboldt Broncos teams bus as it was on his way to a playoff game.

00:40:38.960 He was released with just a thousand dollars bail.

00:40:41.960 And now after serving less than three years, he has just been granted day parole.

00:40:50.960 So when I say that Tamara Leach has been treated disproportionately, I cannot stress that enough, that he was released on a thousand dollars bail.

00:41:00.960 And sure, you know, he's been absolutely remorseful.

00:41:03.960 I don't think he intended to kill anybody that day.

00:41:06.960 But 16 people are dead and 13 more had their lives just torn apart and all their families, too.

00:41:14.960 And so the harm by his actions caused in the community, I think far greater than anything Tamara Leach ever did.

00:41:21.960 And he had a thousand dollars bail.

00:41:24.960 Unbelievable.

00:41:25.960 And and Tamara, her bill's been denied.

00:41:28.960 Unbelievable.

00:41:29.960 And Sheila, I believe that there were maybe seven family members there to give victim impact statements, urging the parole board not to let this man free.

00:41:43.960 And I guess there's no empathy, is there?

00:41:46.960 I mean, I understand some of these people were breaking down in in tears because of what happened to their loved ones.

00:41:53.960 And no, let's not, I guess, deal some cruel and unusual punishment to this truck driver.

00:42:02.960 Meanwhile, look at the cruel and unusual punishment for those who lost their lives and those who are permanently disabled.

00:42:09.960 I really question the empathy of those who sit on parole boards when you can hear those family members speak and they're breaking down into sobs and you go, yeah, he deserves a second chance.

00:42:22.960 What about the second chance for all the victims?

00:42:24.960 There is not.

00:42:25.960 Yeah.

00:42:26.960 Well, and like I said, it clearly he didn't intend to kill anybody.

00:42:31.960 I think this is a terrible, terrible disaster for him and for the families, but proportionality counts here, given the harm caused to the entire country by his actions.

00:42:45.960 Yeah.

00:42:46.960 Tamara Leach, what did she do? 1.00

00:42:47.960 Street parties?

00:42:48.960 Cleanups?

00:42:49.960 Feed the homeless?

00:42:50.960 Yeah.

00:42:51.960 Offer people hope?

00:42:52.960 Yeah.

00:42:53.960 You know, and she languishes in jail now, denied bail because she took a photo with somebody, a three second interaction.

00:43:01.960 Yeah.

00:43:02.960 In front of her lawyers, by the way.

00:43:04.960 It's amazing.

00:43:05.960 And I gave the example earlier of Omar Khadr becoming the next Lotto Max winner without even having to buy a ticket because of hurt feelings.

00:43:14.960 And that the liberals envision themselves for the first time ever and the last time as fiscal conservatives, meaning it would cost far more to fight this in court.

00:43:23.960 It is I sometimes I really question what this country is becoming and in such a rapid pace, Sheila.

00:43:32.960 And we can basically trace back the awfulness to the year 2015 when these Justin Trudeau liberals got elected.

00:43:40.960 We really can.

00:43:41.960 It's been that short a timeframe.

00:43:43.960 Petty, vindictive and crooked.

00:43:47.960 That's that's what this government is.

00:43:50.960 We should bump ahead because we've got a few more things to talk about on the list.

00:43:55.960 And Olivia and Efron went through the trouble of putting these things into a list where we should follow it from CBC.

00:44:05.960 Thirty seven thousand eight hundred people sent privacy breach notifications linked to Newfoundland cyber attack.

00:44:13.960 And this is related to Newfoundland and Labrador's largest health authority being subject of to a cyber attack.

00:44:22.960 About one in every 13 people in the province had their health records accessed in this.

00:44:28.960 And it includes patients along with former and current employees of the health authority.

00:44:35.960 And this is only going to get worse because you've been forced to provide all the data about yourself to everybody you've come in contact with lately.

00:44:48.960 If you are somebody who would provide a vaccine passport to your bartender.

00:44:53.960 Who's protecting that information now so that you could go get a drink?

00:44:58.960 I mean, just and we know that the Public Health Agency of Canada, not only were they paying TELUS for your location data, TELUS was backdating it to 2019 so that they could compare then to now to see if you were being COVID compliant with restrictions.

00:45:17.960 There are others, other companies, another one called Blue Dot, where they were finding they were providing the Public Health Agency of Canada information about whether or not you had traveled near and around a retirement home.

00:45:30.960 I bet you didn't know that Blue Dot was paid for your information.

00:45:34.960 They never asked you if they could provide your information to the Public Health Agency of Canada.

00:45:39.960 You were never compensated. So when I see stuff like this, I think, OK, all these other companies now have your information.

00:45:47.960 Who's protecting your information now from cyber hackers?

00:45:50.960 Or do you just get a letter from the government saying your privacy has been breached one more time?

00:45:55.960 Yeah. You know, a couple of things, Sheila, I once interviewed a computer expert and basically he said, if you can build it, meaning, you know, a database or whatever, it can be hacked, period.

00:46:06.960 There's someone smart enough to get through the most extensive firewalls and password protections.

00:46:12.960 But where I look about this, this Newfoundland Labrador case, that's a cyber attack.

00:46:18.960 I guess it's somebody maliciously getting in.

00:46:21.960 Folks, Sheila recently posted a superb piece.

00:46:26.960 She just mentioned TELUS.

00:46:28.960 TELUS, you've got to check that out because that was the government coming to TELUS and saying, we'd like the records of all your users.

00:46:39.960 We want to see their personal whereabouts in the last three years.

00:46:44.960 And TELUS didn't say, oh, no, no, no, as much as we'd like to comply, we take privacy very seriously.

00:46:53.960 No, TELUS said, you name it both.

00:46:56.960 Here you go.

00:46:57.960 This is where everybody was.

00:46:59.960 This makes my blood boil, Sheila, because this wasn't a cyber attack.

00:47:05.960 This was the government asking for this information.

00:47:08.960 And by the way, is it even legal what TELUS did and Blue Dot, for that matter, the idea of giving information, personal information, without the consent of their customers?

00:47:22.960 Do we know that?

00:47:23.960 It is.

00:47:24.960 I don't know.

00:47:25.960 And it's worse than that, because not only did they turn over your information to the government, they profited from it.

00:47:31.960 TELUS sold your information for two hundred thousand dollars to the Public Health Agency of Canada.

00:47:37.960 I have no idea what Blue Dot's been paid.

00:47:39.960 We filed for access for that contract.

00:47:42.960 And I'm sure it's going to be more because Blue Dot was even more comprehensive about what they were providing to the government about you.

00:47:50.960 They were able to show like where you had been within your municipality.

00:47:54.960 If you had been near a place that where vulnerable populations would be like hospitals and nursing homes, if you had crossed the border, if you had moved from your health authority to another health authority zone during the day, they gave that information to the Public Health Agency of Canada.

00:48:13.960 And so it makes me wonder, how is this any different than the unauthorized breach of what of the Newfoundland data?

00:48:21.960 I guess.

00:48:22.960 I don't know.

00:48:23.960 The government didn't ask for it, I guess, is the only difference, because the outcome and the effect on the person whose privacy is breached is all the same.

00:48:32.960 And Sheila, usually the phone companies, when it comes to this, the sharing of information, personal data, what have you, for example, they're very strict about it.

00:48:42.960 If you were to call your husband's cell phone provider, you being his wife, and saying, I need to know when he made a call. 0.71

00:48:53.960 I need to know what his bill amount was for you're not getting it, even as his wife, they're going to say, sorry, your husband has to get on the blower and give us his permission to give that to you. 0.77

00:49:05.960 So how is it that those rules in terms of privacy go out the window when the federal government comes calling on TELUS?

00:49:14.960 I don't understand that.

00:49:15.960 Privacy has been, I think, one of the largest casualties of COVID.

00:49:20.960 Yes.

00:49:21.960 Because breaching your privacy has become completely normalized.

00:49:27.960 You have to show your flight attendant your vaccination status or you did up until very shortly.

00:49:33.960 You used to have to show your bartender, your gym, the recreation facility worker.

00:49:38.960 You had to show them your medical history before they could pull the lever on the draft keg and serve you up a pint.

00:49:47.960 So the government normalized this.

00:49:50.960 I just don't know how they can be mad at cyber hackers when they've been the biggest hackers of all.

00:49:57.960 That's a great way of putting it.

00:49:59.960 And to me, this is on TELUS because of TELUS had a little more ethical substance.

00:50:07.960 They would say, make us get a warrant.

00:50:11.960 Yeah.

00:50:12.960 Take us to court because we said they turned it over and said the government a bill.

00:50:16.960 Yeah.

00:50:17.960 Because the reason why we're in business is our customers and a understanding that they their personal information is protected.

00:50:28.960 Instead, they turned it over.

00:50:30.960 They cried uncle without getting, you know, a pinky finger put on them.

00:50:35.960 And as you said, they took their their cut.

00:50:38.960 I wonder how is how is TELUS going to get out of this PR nightmare?

00:50:42.960 Because that's what it is.

00:50:44.960 And and in fact, that insult to injury, Sheila, as understand that the CRTC is giving the cell phone operators in this country, that little ogle ogleopoly that we have the right to increase rates yet again.

00:50:58.960 We are amongst the most screwed over cell phone users in the world.

00:51:03.960 And by the way, all those people that with the worst coverage, by the way.

00:51:07.960 Yeah.

00:51:08.960 Unless if you live out of a major municipality, your your coverage stinks.

00:51:12.960 I mean, you have better cell service in India, in like the rural portions of India.

00:51:18.960 And it's because of competition.

00:51:20.960 Exactly.

00:51:21.960 Anybody can start a cell phone company there.

00:51:23.960 There's no limits on how much bandwidth you can buy.

00:51:26.960 Yeah.

00:51:27.960 And that competition and that ability for other people to get into the marketplace has made everything infinitely better in other parts of the world.

00:51:35.960 It makes it so expensive for Canada.

00:51:38.960 Like you're saying, David, we're one of the highest cell phone rates to the consumer in the world.

00:51:44.960 Yes.

00:51:45.960 And Rogers went down last week and nothing worked.

00:51:48.960 Oh, yeah.

00:51:49.960 Nothing worked.

00:51:50.960 None of our systems worked.

00:51:51.960 Let's not forget.

00:51:52.960 I'm going to poke a big hole in this argument.

00:51:55.960 What the what the telecom providers, what they say is that, well, we are a huge country with the second biggest country in the world with a relatively small population, 38 million and change.

00:52:06.960 And that's where the costs come into effect.

00:52:09.960 Ah, but wait a second.

00:52:10.960 I believe the figure is 90 percent of Canadians live within 100 miles of the U.S. border.

00:52:18.960 OK, so in other words, our population is very dense and compact.

00:52:23.960 It's that long line of, as I said, 90 percent of residents within 100 miles.

00:52:30.960 And also, Australia is a very, very big country with a very small population.

00:52:36.960 Guess what?

00:52:37.960 The Aussies don't pay what we pay, folks. 0.99

00:52:39.960 Not a chance.

00:52:40.960 This is such a screw job.

00:52:42.960 And I just think in light of the TELUS privacy breach, in light of Rogers screwing over this nation two weeks ago with their systems that came down, we still don't have a real explanation why that was.

00:52:56.960 Their way of doing a mea culpa is to raise your your rates.

00:53:01.960 You know, what chutzpah, Sheila? 0.99

00:53:03.960 It's just unbelievable.

00:53:05.960 Yeah.

00:53:06.960 There was a report out in October that says a new report by a Finnish telecom analyst shows that Canadians pay more for cell phone service than anyone else in the world.

00:53:20.960 Wow.

00:53:21.960 Prices in the Canadian wireless market continue to be the highest among the highest, highest among the highest in the world.

00:53:27.960 And getting higher.

00:53:30.960 Yeah.

00:53:31.960 Yeah.

00:53:32.960 A Helsinki based research firm.

00:53:35.960 Um, it, who's the worst?

00:53:38.960 Uh, Canada, South Africa, Israel is the cheapest. 0.79

00:53:43.960 Um, there are places.

00:53:45.960 Yeah.

00:53:46.960 New Zealand.

00:53:47.960 That's a very sparsely populated, spread out mountainous place.

00:53:51.960 And we remain more expensive than them.

00:53:54.960 Iceland is cheaper than us.

00:53:55.960 You want to talk about difficult topography and, uh, sparse population.

00:54:01.960 Well, there's Iceland, Finland, Slovakia, all those places are doing better than us.

00:54:06.960 Norway, Sweden, uh, again, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Brazil.

00:54:13.960 Like this is embarrassing.

00:54:14.960 Lithuania, Estonia.

00:54:16.960 Well, Estonia is a tech sector place, but, um, Russia, again, all these places are doing far better than us.

00:54:24.960 Um, and the excuses they give just aren't good enough.

00:54:27.960 Yeah.

00:54:28.960 And Russia, of course, would be, uh, numero uno in terms of country size.

00:54:32.960 Uh, we come in second.

00:54:33.960 And, um, I guess that leads into this story.

00:54:36.960 Uh, well.

00:54:37.960 Uh, we have an ad break.

00:54:39.960 Oh, another ad break.

00:54:40.960 Well, we got to pay the bills.

00:54:41.960 We do.

00:54:42.960 We do.

00:54:43.960 We do.

00:54:44.960 We do.

00:54:45.960 We do.

00:54:46.960 Love it.

00:55:15.420 You know, I'm not going to name the retailer, but the other day, Lady Manzoid was at a big box superstore, and she was wearing some of our less than flattering Justin Trudeau paraphernalia on her person. 0.99

00:55:30.620 And lo and behold, the clerk that served her was completely simpatico, absolutely hated Justin Trudeau, and gave Lady Manzoid a discount, a contractor discount on the stuff she was buying.

00:55:46.100 So here's an example, folks. You wear your politics on your sleeves, and you might make new friends. You might get financially incentivized.

00:55:56.100 What's that, Sheila?

00:55:57.100 The T-shirt's paying for itself.

00:55:59.580 Oh, absolutely. Easily. Several times over. So there you go. Don't be shy about it. Say it loud. Say it proud. It doesn't have to be a rainbow, folks. It can be an F Trudeau hat or something like that.

00:56:14.500 And wear it before it becomes illegal to wear it. And if you think I jest, believe me, once they get done with the internet, I'm sure Justin Trudeau will consign some fashion police in terms of what slogans.

00:56:30.460 You'll probably be allowed to wear Pride Parade stuff, like only rainbow cowboy hats and stuff like that.

00:56:36.720 You got it. And I noticed we plugged this. Painfully high inflation rates will remain, according to the Bank of Canada governor. Well, knock me down with a feather. Does that surprise anyone?

00:56:55.140 And do we have a video on this? We do? Okay, let's check this out.

00:57:02.600 There's no way around it. 8.1% inflation is painfully high. We do expect, we know gasoline prices came down in July. So a month from now, when StatsCan publishes July inflation, it probably will come down a bit.

00:57:16.880 But look, unfortunately, inflation is probably going to start with a 7% for the rest of the year. It is going to be painfully high.

00:57:26.340 There's no way around it.

00:57:27.060 This is cutting into my monkey budget.

00:57:33.520 You know, Sheila, I was at the supermarket on the weekend, and I was in the produce section. I couldn't believe the prices. I hadn't been for a while. And I came across a $3 cucumber in season, right? We grow cucumbers in Ontario.

00:57:50.340 And I came up to the produce manager. And I said, you know where you can stick this $3 cucumber? And he said to me, oh, I do, sir. The problem is I already have a $4 zucchini in that place. Anyway, what I'm saying is that these prices are outrageous. And don't take it out on the staff at the supermarket.

00:58:13.680 No, don't do that. Don't do that. It's not their fault that Justin Trudeau is terrible and printed money like it was just nothing. But I think your cucumbers are probably double what they are here.

00:58:27.180 Oh, is that right? I wonder how that happened. But in many cases.

00:58:32.440 We're closer to Mexico, I think.

00:58:33.960 Oh, and Sheila, it's the same in the US. And in both cases, these are self-inflicted wounds by the federal government. We have left trillions of dollars of mineral wealth landlocked because we're anti-pipeline. Same with Joe Biden. He took a country under President Trump that was exporting energy, exporting it.

00:58:58.200 It was energy self-sufficient for the first time in decades. He stopped the allowance of drilling on federal land, you know, getting leases for that, stopped fracking.

00:59:10.400 And as a result, the US is once again energy dependent. And you see the pathetic spectacle of essentially President Biden on his knees begging the Saudis to up imports into the US.

00:59:24.680 And the I mean, I can't imagine for the first time, I'm kind of on Team Saudi Arabia and giving Biden the middle finger.

00:59:33.700 But, you know, it comes down to energy as being a real big reason why we're having these out of control prices, Sheila.

00:59:43.060 Well, there's also this. Let's bring up this article from Black Locks, because while families are being crushed by inflation and the federal government saying we don't know how it happened and don't expect us to do anything about it, they are playing a major role in it.

01:00:02.300 And this is outside of carbon taxes and then raising the carbon tax and printing money and not building pipelines that would drive the price of oil and gas down because it would bring supply up.

01:00:14.920 They're doing this. So they raised the price of certain food items that everybody needs.

01:00:25.780 And they did this outside of the things that they were already doing to drive up the price of food.

01:00:32.480 So a federal agency, the Canadian Dairy Commission, that walks down the street holding hand in hand with the dairy cartel last February 1st, raised the wholesale price of milk by 8.4%.

01:00:45.820 Guess who that hurts the most? The poor.

01:00:49.620 And then the wholesale cost of butter went up 12.5%.

01:00:55.760 I believe it. I'm constantly, like every time I walk past the dairy case, I throw two salted butters in.

01:01:02.520 And like it went from around four and a half bucks to like six bucks in the last year.

01:01:10.480 The commission stockpiles butter and cheese. This is the despicable part.

01:01:16.360 They stockpile butter and cheese to artificially inflate the prices.

01:01:23.120 Well, Sheila.

01:01:24.140 This is why I hate the cartel. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.

01:01:27.080 Because you know what? I grumble when I throw that $6 butter into my cart.

01:01:31.940 But there are people who are choosing less nutritious, crappy margarine instead of butter.

01:01:37.220 Yeah.

01:01:37.420 Because they don't, they can't afford this.

01:01:39.600 Never eat margarine. I mean, what does it say?

01:01:43.020 I say this as a canola producer.

01:01:44.280 Yeah. Well, when you call it an edible oil product, that there's something wrong.

01:01:49.440 But those commodities you mentioned, cheese, butter, milk, that's all dairy.

01:01:55.540 Dairy as well as eggs, chicken, and turkey.

01:01:58.500 These are all supply managed commodities in this country.

01:02:02.820 Go back to the origin of supply management.

01:02:06.680 And once upon a time, Sheila, I was with a food service trade magazine.

01:02:09.960 I wrote a factual feature. It took six months of my life in terms of the research.

01:02:14.880 This was pre-internet.

01:02:16.240 So I had to do it the old-fashioned way with microfiches at the Central Library.

01:02:20.260 Oh, my goodness.

01:02:21.600 But I actually won an American Business Press award for this feature,

01:02:27.300 which is kind of unheard of for a small Canadian trade magazine to win.

01:02:30.860 And it was on the history of supply management, which was, by the way, brought in by the Pierre Trudeau liberals at the time.

01:02:38.760 And it's basically a Soviet-style economic system where you keep supplies artificially short and prices high.

01:02:49.840 And it should be abolished.

01:02:52.000 We should ask of our farmers to be competitive, to be innovative, to sell their products on the world market.

01:02:57.780 It all comes down to quota, Sheila.

01:02:59.780 It's a complicated system.

01:03:01.640 But without getting into the weeds, as I did in the article, you will find in Canada that owners of dairy quota, for example, are not farmers.

01:03:12.060 They're Bay Street lawyers, for God's sakes, right?

01:03:14.660 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:03:15.180 Stockbrokers, they're not even using the quota.

01:03:18.700 It's something they can bargain with, trade with, sell.

01:03:22.460 It is a perverse system that would be more in tune with the Soviet Union of the early 70s than Canada of the early 70s.

01:03:31.260 And I can tell you, in the early days of supply management, it's hard to imagine.

01:03:34.900 Do you know, Sheila, that Kentucky fried chicken restaurants were closing early because they had no chicken?

01:03:42.500 Again, they ran out of chicken and there was not enough quota for the chicken farmers to raise more chicken and to do so without the quota would be illegal.

01:03:50.700 How does this make sense, right?

01:03:52.820 So that's one of the reasons you see, what was it, 8.4% increase?

01:03:57.800 That's outrageous.

01:03:59.200 Yeah, and 12 on other things.

01:04:00.580 And 12 on other things.

01:04:01.980 Just think about families who are struggling and you're denying them the most nutritious thing they need, right?

01:04:07.700 And to say that it's not doable to get off the quota system, New Zealand just did it.

01:04:13.960 New Zealand has done it.

01:04:14.920 They phased out their dairy cartels.

01:04:17.440 They don't have food cartels there.

01:04:19.200 There are ways to do it.

01:04:20.200 And I sympathize with dairy farmers and poultry farmers who have been forced into the quota system because now you're stuck with this expensive quota.

01:04:30.020 You've got value tied up in it.

01:04:31.600 There are ways to unravel the system so that your asset, this quota, isn't rendered completely stranded to you.

01:04:41.240 We have to look at other countries who have done this.

01:04:43.940 And actually, let me hint at something.

01:04:47.280 I have an interview with Roman Babbert today where he talks about this, about how to make life more affordable.

01:04:54.100 I have not heard him speak out against supply management before, so I was very interested to see that he is bringing up policy proposals on this.

01:05:01.920 And he has looked at other places.

01:05:04.160 Instead of just saying, I don't like supply management, it's the worst.

01:05:07.740 It makes life more expensive for people.

01:05:09.440 He's also looked at the other side where there are farmers who are saying, yeah, I really don't like the system that I'm shoehorned into.

01:05:16.180 Also, it prevents innovation.

01:05:19.680 But how we've got money tied up in this asset, what do we do with it?

01:05:23.380 He's looked at that.

01:05:24.460 So, anyways, if you want to tune in to the Ezra Levant show tonight, guest host me, we talk about that.

01:05:30.140 And Sheila, one quick anecdote.

01:05:32.620 It's almost as ridiculous as KFC stores closing early because they've run out of chicken.

01:05:39.040 But when I was doing this research in the early 90s, I came across this incredible anecdote.

01:05:43.220 It didn't make the story.

01:05:44.620 But this shows you the folly of a supply management system based on quota.

01:05:49.300 And it was a farm in Ontario that was raising or they were hoping to raise free-range organic chickens, very high-end product.

01:06:00.220 And what they said to the supply management quota masters is that we don't have the extra quota to do this and we can't afford to get any more.

01:06:10.580 But every single one of these chickens, every single breast and drumstick is destined for U.S. export.

01:06:18.760 This is a high-end product that is not going to affect the supply.

01:06:25.080 One ounce in Ontario or Canada in terms of extra chicken on the market.

01:06:30.600 It is all export.

01:06:32.460 And guess what?

01:06:33.100 They were denied.

01:06:34.220 No quota.

01:06:35.460 No raising chicken.

01:06:37.140 No export to the U.S. market.

01:06:39.100 No enriching yourselves.

01:06:41.020 And no filling a customer demand in the United States of America.

01:06:45.080 How does that make sense?

01:06:47.500 It doesn't.

01:06:48.700 It doesn't.

01:06:49.720 Like I said, it prevents innovation.

01:06:52.080 There's a reason why you go into a U.S. supermarket and you just look at the glory of all the cheese there.

01:06:57.440 And you come to Canada and you're like, okay, so I have cheddar, white cheddar, mild, marble, and old.

01:07:03.560 And that's it.

01:07:04.880 Maybe you might get a smoked Gouda.

01:07:06.880 But that's it.

01:07:07.760 And you go to these other places of the world and there's just so much selection.

01:07:13.100 And you'll pay for it.

01:07:14.300 You'll pay for the different qualities, the different styles.

01:07:19.200 But there's just no wiggle room in Canada to do that anymore.

01:07:25.220 Thank you, Pierre Elliott Trudeau.

01:07:28.060 Sheila, I see Mrs. Producer doing this, which either means we've got to wrap it up or that I'm cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

01:07:36.320 Oh, and we have some super day.

01:07:37.000 A bit of both.

01:07:37.880 You know what?

01:07:38.680 It works both ways.

01:07:39.740 Let's get to the chats and then we'll get out the door.

01:07:41.520 Because we've got things.

01:07:43.840 And you have to use the studio also.

01:07:46.840 Shauna Marie G83 gives us five bucks.

01:07:49.060 I had my doubts already, but that was confirmation I needed for Pierre Polyev to lose my vote.

01:07:53.780 We need a prime minister who will stand up for freedom no matter what.

01:07:57.380 Maxime Bernier for prime minister.

01:07:59.240 You know, I think Polyev is really good at thinking on his feet, and I've been impressed with his handling of questions, but he flubbed that one.

01:08:12.100 And he answered it correctly, but he left out the second part that Canadians want to hear.

01:08:18.060 He did.

01:08:18.760 I agree.

01:08:19.200 I mean, it is correct.

01:08:20.360 It is correct.

01:08:21.040 We don't want the prime minister meddling in the court system.

01:08:24.620 But when things have gone awry, you need to fix that on the back end.

01:08:29.060 And there was no talk of that whatsoever.

01:08:31.580 I agree.

01:08:32.380 Melba Toaster gives us five bucks.

01:08:35.120 Is Polyev also going to defund the other 762 media outlets, or is it this CBC campaign slogan, just journalistic integrity theater?

01:08:43.660 I think he has come out against media subsidies for all.

01:08:47.820 I know Roman Babber has.

01:08:49.120 He mentioned that today also.

01:08:50.140 But I think Polyev has come out against funding the media in any form.

01:08:56.000 And it's not just a financial matter, Sheila.

01:08:58.040 It's an ethical and moral matter as well.

01:09:01.300 How can media outlets, how can the watchdogs accept funds from the biggest entity they should be keeping their eyes on?

01:09:11.400 As our boss says, the watchdogs have become the lapdogs of this government.

01:09:17.080 It is completely unethical for a journalistic organization to accept money from anyone aside from its subscribers because it is a conflict of interest.

01:09:28.680 So I think that would be a win for Mr. Polyev.

01:09:32.260 And I'm sorry if they say, oh, well, boo-hoo, you know, the industry's changed, everything's online.

01:09:37.080 I'm sorry if you were making horse and buggy wagon wheels 120 years ago, would you be decrying the rise of the horseless carriage, you know, the motorized vehicle, because it's going to put you out of business?

01:09:52.260 Because things change, change your business plan and survive on your own as opposed to sucking from the taxpayer teat, for God's sakes.

01:10:02.860 Well, and this goes back to my comments about the glory of European cheeses.

01:10:07.020 Yes.

01:10:07.460 Government intervention prevents innovation.

01:10:10.800 The government intervening in the business model of the Globe and Mail prevents it from getting better and doing something different.

01:10:16.980 It stagnates it, and they remain awful and getting worse.

01:10:22.680 Another example, Sheila, is Bombardier.

01:10:25.060 How many times can they fail?

01:10:26.900 Because they're like the high-wire act at the circus.

01:10:30.560 If you know there's a net below you, you can be a little more cavalier with your act.

01:10:37.200 But if you know it's hard concrete there, you better get it right.

01:10:40.560 But, again, their motto seems to be, well, we're going to try really hard, and if we get it wrong, that's okay.

01:10:47.640 We'll be bailed out by the taxpayer.

01:10:49.340 That's their business plan, and that's wrong too.

01:10:52.980 You know, I was just looking because I remember reading a story about Bombardier and their ATVs, which I think is the only profitable side of that company.

01:11:02.400 The Can-Am's, the ATVs, so they make a good product as far as ATVs go, but I think the Can-Am ATVs are made outside of Canada at this point.

01:11:19.120 In Mexico, yeah, their ATV assembly plant is in Juarez, and now there's two Juarez plants that assemble the side-by-sides and the regular quads.

01:11:30.620 So this Canadian company, Canadian company, getting all the taxpayer-subsidized money, the only profitable side of their company actually manufactures their vehicles outside of Canada in Juarez, Mexico.

01:11:43.360 So that should tell you something there.

01:11:44.960 And, by the way, Sheila, correct me if I'm wrong, do they, does Bombardier still make the Skidoo, or did they sell off that division?

01:11:53.000 They do?

01:11:53.340 No, I think they still, yeah, I think they still do.

01:11:55.440 I thought they, all right, I stand corrected.

01:11:58.540 I'm going to look into that.

01:12:00.040 I don't know.

01:12:00.620 Yeah, I'll look into it.

01:12:01.680 I just know that the Can-Am side, I'm more consumed with the quads and the side-by-sides, and I do know that they don't make those in Canada.

01:12:09.440 I thought for a time maybe they made them in the United States, but now their manufacturing facility is in Juarez, two facilities.

01:12:16.200 Then we, yeah.

01:12:18.040 Adam Ottawa gives us a buck.

01:12:20.280 Millions of customers didn't have access to their money for a day.

01:12:24.220 Where was the media asking Rogers for answers?

01:12:26.800 Where is the media now?

01:12:27.780 No, still no answers, but we know what shampoo Justin Trudeau likes.

01:12:31.840 Yikes.

01:12:33.740 Yeah, and the Arrive Can app wasn't working that day either, which caused absolute chaos in the airports.

01:12:40.580 But it's fine.

01:12:43.100 But we still protect the market for the likes of Rogers so they can get rich off the backs of Canadians while providing awful customer service and awful coverage.

01:12:53.280 Great.

01:12:53.700 And I very quickly checked, yes, Bombardier still owns Skidoo.

01:12:58.360 Are the Skidoo's made in Mexico, Sheila? 0.61

01:13:00.860 And if so, is there any place in Mexico you could use a Skidoo?

01:13:06.660 I also missed a whole pile of chats, Olivia reliably informs me, so I just shuffled up and sure as heck I did.

01:13:13.420 Okay.

01:13:13.580 So we've got King 7734 gives us a buck.

01:13:16.940 Someone should let Rebel News know that Comic-Con called.

01:13:19.900 They want their geeks back.

01:13:23.660 Well, believe me, I had my share of them at Anime North Toronto.

01:13:28.500 You can catch that on our website or the Rebel News YouTube channel.

01:13:31.980 The angle, folks, was that it was the most oppressive vax and masking regulations I've ever seen.

01:13:40.240 Stuff that was even beyond what you would have seen at the height of the pandemic in late 2020, early 2021.

01:13:47.320 And the sad thing was the various geeks and nerds that were attending Anime North, no problem, completely indoctrinated.

01:13:55.920 Even if they were wearing a mask, they had to have a paper mask on under the plastic mask, which would be giving you actually more protection than the paper mask.

01:14:06.980 Unbelievable.

01:14:08.680 Science fiction, David.

01:14:11.500 Science fiction.

01:14:12.580 That's what all of this COVID stuff is.

01:14:14.660 It's science fiction.

01:14:16.020 Adam Ottawa gives us a buck.

01:14:17.460 I went to the local grocery store, grocery supply today and picked up 1,200 plastic straws, 1,000 grocery bags for trash, and 40 styro cups.

01:14:25.260 I'll be doing that every payday until they run out.

01:14:28.380 Take that, Greta.

01:14:30.380 Mom's out there.

01:14:31.360 Am I crazy?

01:14:33.220 I, my kids throw out the cutlery around here.

01:14:36.580 I don't know.

01:14:37.060 I think they clear their plate before they put it in the dishwasher and just off goes my great cutlery.

01:14:42.580 I have these, like, they have barbed wire on them because, you know, I live in a log house and I live on a farm.

01:14:46.880 But I've reverted now to just going to the dollar store and buying spoons and putting them in the drawer because I can't trust my children not to throw them out.

01:14:56.460 And so now I've got teachers and Justin Trudeau saying, oh, we want zero waste lunches.

01:15:02.260 So don't send any plastic spoons on their lunches.

01:15:06.380 My stuff just gets thrown out faster then because the kids throw it out at school and they come home and just throw out another spoon.

01:15:13.520 Wow.

01:15:13.900 Why can't I just, I feel like throwing out my metal spoons is worse for the environment accidentally than intentionally throwing out a plastic spoon.

01:15:22.660 Sheila, I got to hand it to you.

01:15:24.000 Barbed wire cutlery.

01:15:25.200 I've never heard of such a thing.

01:15:26.320 You really are anticipating a home invasion at some point, aren't you?

01:15:30.820 It just has, like, barbed wire detail.

01:15:32.900 It's from Cabela's.

01:15:33.760 It looks great.

01:15:37.340 Sojourner gives us a buck.

01:15:39.120 Except for a limited group of grasshoppers, locusts, insects are not kosher or halal.

01:15:44.580 So Jews and Muslims would be hooped. 1.00

01:15:48.680 Oh, that's interesting.

01:15:50.680 Yeah, they do say people with shellfish allergies have to be very careful.

01:15:56.320 Of eating bugs.

01:15:58.360 And if they're putting these bug proteins in your regular food unwittingly as a new ingredient, you really need to be wary of that.

01:16:07.320 Because if you have a shellfish allergy, and that can be catastrophic, anaphylactic, you would not want to be surprised with that one.

01:16:15.940 As you're eating your regular potato chips that they've all of a sudden dosed with bug protein for some reason.

01:16:23.020 Wow.

01:16:23.260 I did not know that.

01:16:24.600 Interesting.

01:16:26.320 Yes.

01:16:28.000 Fraser, I'm told to proceed with caution here because we might have to cut the chat because of YouTube.

01:16:36.280 So yesterday we met up with Kara McKinn as she traveled across Canada bringing light to the harm of a medicine.

01:16:45.620 It's too bad Rebel did not cover the story, but it will be on other sites later.

01:16:49.320 We didn't know, you know, like this is a big country with 37 plus million people and we do keep an eye to things, but we don't always, you've got to tell us.

01:17:00.760 Tips at rebelnews.com.

01:17:02.820 Too bad this story did not get the recognition it deserves.

01:17:06.420 That medicine has caused problems.

01:17:08.660 That's paraphrasing.

01:17:09.580 This reminds me of Harry Potter, you know, that whose name we cannot mention.

01:17:18.460 People could read it for themselves.

01:17:20.520 Fraser also gives us a buck and says, have you seen the interview on CNN with the founder of the Weather Channel?

01:17:25.320 Yes, I have.

01:17:26.260 I enjoy him.

01:17:27.640 It's a laugh fest as he stated the fact there's no such thing as climate change.

01:17:30.840 He's great.

01:17:31.780 Wow.

01:17:33.600 Yeah.

01:17:34.260 Shauna Marie G83.

01:17:35.880 It's an old, old, old interview because they never had him back on again, obviously.

01:17:42.720 He's being canceled.

01:17:44.860 You can find it on YouTube.

01:17:46.360 It's like years old, but it's fun.

01:17:48.760 Shauna Marie G83 gives us five bucks.

01:17:51.420 I will not eat bugs, period.

01:17:53.580 These demonic bureaucrats getting off watching us peasants eat bugs. 1.00

01:17:57.320 Absolutely disgusting.

01:17:58.840 Yeah.

01:17:59.260 You know what?

01:17:59.660 I get that vibe, too, when they are all of a sudden putting bug protein into other things that never had bug protein before and don't require any additional protein added to it.

01:18:10.820 Like, why would you add it to potato chips?

01:18:13.200 But it's turning up on the labels and you wonder, what kind of creep shows are enjoying thinking about other people accidentally eating bugs against their will?

01:18:24.140 Just a bunch of weirdos.

01:18:25.260 Yeah.

01:18:25.640 Yeah.

01:18:29.380 Paul Otto Newman gives us five bucks and says, remember the Chris Evans movie Snowpiercer?

01:18:34.500 There's a series, actually.

01:18:36.380 I made a series of it now, so you don't have to watch the old movie.

01:18:38.940 You can watch the series now.

01:18:40.480 Where the plebes in the back of the bus or the train were eating bug bars while the elites at the front were having steak and champagne. 1.00

01:18:46.840 Such a perfect allegory.

01:18:48.020 Yeah.

01:18:48.880 Yeah.

01:18:49.720 Completely.

01:18:52.960 And then Fraser gives us a buck.

01:18:55.140 Yesterday at our meeting with Kara, I wore my new Trudeau Castro T-shirt.

01:18:59.180 It was a smash hit.

01:19:00.720 Excellent.

01:19:02.020 I noticed there was a consonant missing from the word shirt.

01:19:07.980 I filled it in.

01:19:08.860 Or maybe it was intentional.

01:19:09.840 I filled it in.

01:19:13.020 But if you want that shirt, it's at rebelnewsstore.com.

01:19:17.360 Yeah.

01:19:17.600 And it is flying off the shelves, Sheila.

01:19:20.740 Yeah.

01:19:21.400 Yeah.

01:19:21.680 It's crazy.

01:19:22.620 Yeah.

01:19:23.200 It's...

01:19:23.840 I'm ashamed we didn't think of that shirt sooner.

01:19:27.700 Are we all caught up now, Olivia?

01:19:29.740 I think I've met up with myself.

01:19:31.780 Okay.

01:19:32.340 Perfect.

01:19:32.700 Yeah.

01:19:33.220 You've met your supply managed quota of Super Chat, Sheila.

01:19:37.320 So there you go.

01:19:38.520 You shall not be given the opportunity to say one more Super Chat because you'll be in trouble

01:19:43.640 with the supply management people, the intellectual thought department of the just-

01:19:48.440 Oh, the dairy farmers are going to email me after today's show for sure.

01:19:52.580 Oh, I know they will.

01:19:54.320 I got thrashed back in the early 90s when that article came out.

01:19:57.880 I feel bad for them.

01:19:58.820 Yeah.

01:19:58.960 I feel bad for them.

01:20:00.180 Yeah.

01:20:00.380 And I support our farmers.

01:20:01.980 I love our farmers, but, you know, well, we set our piece on that.

01:20:05.700 We must run.

01:20:07.360 So thank you to the team behind the window there, Olivia, Efron, and Danny.

01:20:13.680 And thank you to my co-host, Sheila Gunn-Reed, always a fountain of information.

01:20:20.920 And thank you all to everybody who gave a Super Chat.

01:20:25.620 We don't take the money involuntarily out of your wallet or purse.

01:20:29.460 We ask and you give.

01:20:30.720 It's the most honest way of fundraising, so thank you so much.

01:20:33.940 There'll be two other Rebel News employees here at 12 noon Eastern tomorrow.

01:20:38.780 And as always, folks, always remember, stay sane.

01:20:43.040 I will now outline in more detail how we see the economy and inflation developing, and we'll

01:20:52.560 then explain our assessment of financial and monetary conditions.

01:20:56.140 So, economic activity is slowing.

01:21:02.040 So, economic activity is slowing.

01:21:02.060 We'll be calling.

01:21:02.280 We'll be listening.

01:21:03.220 We'll be listening.

01:21:03.280 We'll be listening.
