00:03:40.100 oh i didn't know that is that a thing yeah yeah so if you go uh on in quebec on the first of july

00:03:48.460 you will see moving truck everywhere because everybody move on the same day wow that sounds

00:03:55.120 hectic why is that yeah uh i don't know it's just because um as you know when where you're moving

00:04:01.560 you'll sign like a bell like a contract with uh but they all start on the first of july and they all

00:04:08.720 end up on the 30 of june or 31 of crazy um and it's how it's working for back it's why like it's

00:04:17.140 really difficult to move because all the truck is already rent and okay it costs a really high

00:04:24.140 price no kidding yeah sounds nightmare so you're moving yeah yeah so we are moving so we are not

00:04:30.580 celebrating uh really uh canada day because everybody is moving on that day so um yeah so

00:04:37.160 you will not be in toronto because you're busy but if you guys listening want to are in the toronto

00:04:42.580 area and want to get your tickets to trucker rebellion go to trucker documentary.com to buy

00:04:47.560 your tickets today it's going to be great it's going to be i'm excited i haven't seen it me either

00:04:51.960 i'm excited have you seen it alexa trucker documentary i actually watch a part of it with

00:04:58.400 my mom oh that's cute i'm excited to see it that's awesome so should we actually insane it's really good

00:05:06.000 okay well we're looking forward yeah i mean we were all following along during the action and

00:05:10.880 obviously as everyone knows uh alexa you were in ottawa for the at the same time yeah in the ottawa

00:05:17.880 protest and i mean what would you call it protest party hangout i mean it wasn't a party for you

00:05:23.780 you got shot yeah no but it was a mix of everything i think uh at the end it was more like a

00:05:31.140 a goliop village uh like some people have put like some mailbox where they they had their trucks

00:05:38.740 just to tell like they are not going anywhere so it was kind of protest but um not a permanent

00:05:47.160 protest but a as permanent protest yeah i would say it was a statement yeah and i i truly believe

00:05:54.220 that what happened there is to is uh is why we're so we're enjoying so many freedoms now that we

00:06:01.240 weren't enjoying before and you know you can chalk it up to lots of things like people will say it's

00:06:05.780 because more people are vaccinated you know whatever you can say that it's because there's

00:06:11.100 this it's the summer now and there's less infections i would argue that last summer we

00:06:15.860 were literally in a state uh what was it it was um the stay at home orders yeah so i think i really

00:06:22.780 truly do uh thank the truckers for the freedoms that we're enjoying now and for people like you who

00:06:27.660 were on the ground i went for one weekend and was out there for like maybe four hours and was like

00:06:32.160 i'm good that's good so cold you are hardcore girl you're so hardcore you are hardcore respect

00:06:38.360 so should we talk about should we get into maybe some of our items yes i'm delaying because um we

00:06:45.400 can't see the screen we cannot see the screen alexa yeah but but alexa can see it but we can wing it

00:06:51.020 we can listen we can listen we're professionals i see you girl me so that's perfect perfect

00:06:56.300 let's play the first clip then all right great so um this is about youtube pushing back against bill

00:07:03.340 c11 which as you know alexa you'll know and our viewers will probably know is this internet

00:07:08.520 censorship bill that is going to harm uh content creators like ourselves yes let's let's start to

00:07:14.480 that clip now hey everyone it's brandon from the brandon gona show and i'm working with youtube to

00:07:22.660 share an update on some new legislation in the works in canada it's called the online streaming

00:07:27.640 act or bill c11 here are the impacts that c11 could have on creators and users in canada it can

00:07:36.080 determine how content appears on youtube including the home page and watch next section plus a regulator

00:07:43.400 could force artificial promotion of some creators and content over others which could impact how content

00:07:49.900 reaches global audiences and could hurt views and revenue now if this bill passes it could have a

00:07:56.300 huge impact on recommendations on youtube which means potentially a big change for canadian viewers

00:08:01.500 and creators like you and me now to break down what this means let's bring in todd beau pray a director

00:08:07.660 of product at youtube whose team helps manage what videos come your way on your home feed todd let's talk

00:08:13.660 about recommendations as they work now on youtube what are the basics we need to know hey brandon great

00:08:19.820 to be chatting with you uh so our recommendations are a really key part of our youtube viewer experience

00:08:26.540 we've designed them to really help viewers find videos that they would enjoy watching based on what

00:08:32.140 each viewer is interested in you want to help them discover creators and channels that are going to be

00:08:38.140 really interesting to them it's kind of like uh if you go to the library and you have a librarian there

00:08:43.180 to help you find the next book that you might enjoy reading based on other books that you've read so let's

00:08:49.260 talk about how exactly this build might play out on youtube basically we know a regulator could make

00:08:55.020 youtube show a certain amount of canadian videos to canadians so does that mean you'd have to change

00:09:01.340 the recommendation system so first let me tell you a little bit about how the recommendation system works

00:09:06.860 today so we collect a lot of feedback from viewers in the form of like looking at what they watch what

00:09:13.180 they don't watch how long they watch it whether they click like or dislike really aim to recommend

00:09:19.660 the best videos to each viewer based on their personal interests and so as part of that we aim to

00:09:25.420 recommend canadian creators to both canadian viewers as well as viewers around the world who are

00:09:31.740 interested in that sort of content or content similar to it regardless of whether the video was uploaded in

00:09:39.180 canada or somewhere around the world and by doing this we're able to maximize the audience for canadian

00:09:46.060 creators okay so if canadians get artificially served up canadian content what happens to the

00:09:53.580 systems so what would happen is we'd end up uh mismatching viewers to videos that they would be most

00:10:00.300 interested in in the space of canadian content creators we would be showing their videos to people

00:10:05.660 who would be less interested than other videos and what that ends up meaning is the reaction from

00:10:11.660 those viewers is likely to be that they're less likely to click on those videos they do click on

00:10:17.260 the videos they they would be less likely to like them or maybe they would uh dislike them or watch them

00:10:23.020 a lot less and so that negative feedback that we collect yikes yeah so it's nice to see that youtube is

00:10:32.380 you know has the same um battle to fight that we do which is kind of funny because youtube

00:10:39.260 censors dissenting voices so frequently so it's interesting that this has kind of pushed them

00:10:44.140 kind of to be more on our side of things where we're like hey no censorship like you know within

00:10:49.580 the legal limit um it's very interesting alexa what do you think about this

00:10:53.100 that they are censoring when it's uh about covet stuff but when it comes to really censor creator

00:11:03.900 and other production that is not related with the narrative oh we have a problem there yeah

00:11:09.580 oh we will speak out for that uh what about like the censorship that happened since the the beginning of

00:11:15.980 the pandemic where you censor where you shutter ban where you change like um everything for like

00:11:22.940 not showing uh the video that is related with another narrative or that that's that's okay

00:11:29.580 but i find that a little bit an hypocrisy um in facing like youtube talking like now we we will

00:11:37.420 raise against like bill c11 because it's what we should do because we want to protect like themselves

00:11:44.700 creator and projector and and themselves because that will hurt mostly them yeah but when it come with

00:11:51.420 other projector that wanted to show and shed the light on other misinformation different information

00:11:57.820 that have been spread by mainstream media and legacy media oh no that's not good do you guys think that

00:12:04.860 now that youtube is like speaking out about this that maybe the government will hear our cries and

00:12:10.860 it'll be enough pushback to maybe stop the bill or change things because it's a pretty sinister bill like

00:12:16.780 it'll literally impact every single content creator in canada like that's huge well i think it goes

00:12:23.420 directly to their pocketbooks like this is a business so at the end of the day youtube is probably has

00:12:28.460 some panel that has told them we're gonna lose money because like the guy in the video said like

00:12:32.700 people aren't going to be watching and liking videos as much because they're not going to be

00:12:35.580 interested in the content it's going to be pushed on to them so right at the end of the day youtube's

00:12:40.380 like this is going to affect our revenue and i mean i'm not really answering your question directly but

00:12:45.740 maybe because their pocketbooks are on the line maybe they will make such a stink that maybe it

00:12:50.620 will actually follow the money yeah exactly but it's it's like you said alexa it's like they don't

00:12:55.820 care when it's just a fringe minority of people who um want to know the truth about certain medical

00:13:05.100 interventions they don't care but when it when it's like oh actually every single uh user on youtube will

00:13:13.980 be given i mean canadian user on youtube will be given content that they're not really interested

00:13:18.860 in and promoted things that they're like okay cool i guess like it's gonna hurt them financially so yes

00:13:27.340 yeah alexa do you think that there will be positive change from this

00:13:31.980 but for me like you know bill c11 and other bill are it's been a while that we are talking about and

00:13:40.060 everybody is talking about now because it's getting more and more closer to be accepted and to be

00:13:45.500 approved by the parliament but why people didn't took action way before when that bill had been like

00:13:52.940 put uh straight for the first uh reading nobody like was like okay i don't see as a threat but it's always

00:14:00.460 when it's getting to be approved that everybody's like oh my god what we are doing and now we we see big

00:14:07.260 tech uh talking out about it okay why you didn't uh raise your voice when the bill c11 have been

00:14:18.540 like put in place and say like good point i think it's like hindsight is 2020 almost in a way because

00:14:24.140 it's now affecting them you know but it was always going to yeah it's her point like yeah that's a good

00:14:29.180 point like why didn't they see two years ago when we started talking about this or was it two years

00:14:34.140 i don't know i think it was around that yeah um that this would be a problem for them and now

00:14:38.060 it's like maybe it's too late yeah yeah it's scary i mean we are still kind of pushing back here at

00:14:44.060 rebel news we do have a petition that you all can sign at stop the censorship.ca and i think we have

00:14:48.700 another clip that maybe we could play that kind of uh piggybacks on this from our new ottawa reporter

00:14:53.980 william um producer are we able to play that clip in five seconds actually good good clip actually yeah

00:15:01.580 it's a really good yeah it's fun william is our new uh ottawa correspondent which is funny because

00:15:07.180 we don't have we didn't have anyone in ottawa as of now alexa was traveling to ottawa to cover a lot 0.93

00:15:11.980 of that yeah um but it's good to have some boots on the ground there um and i think you know you'll see

00:15:17.340 for yourself but he is shaking he's like ruffling feathers yeah on the streets of ottawa because the

00:15:22.220 mps are just walking around and they haven't been challenged by anyone because it's all just like 0.99

00:15:26.140 cbc journalists leaving them to have their fancy lunches and all of a sudden there he goes yeah

00:15:30.300 exactly you have a rebel news reporter putting a mic in their face and they're like who are you

00:15:34.460 what are you doing yeah it's funny sir sir what do you feel uh of being the same party as someone

00:17:26.380 well i'm hoping it doesn't pass there are a number of problems with it especially around potential

00:17:31.900 censorship issues and uh providing the government what do you think about justin trudeau says that

00:17:36.460 it's going to promote free speech i don't believe that at all yeah thank you you see it's only

00:17:43.740 what do you think of bill c11 oh it's uh it's terrible it's uh it's freedom of speech it's a

00:17:49.580 censorship bill by the government uh it should be supported so how do you feel about the fact that

00:17:54.140 you're in the same party as someone that said shoots one of his constituents well i think he

00:17:59.020 apologized for that yeah but he still did what do you think of bill c11 oh it's okay how will it

00:18:12.060 power to censor speech who are you with i'm with rebel news my name is william diaz read the bill yeah i read

00:18:19.740 it i'm asking you a question how how would it promote no i'm the journalist i'm asking you a

00:18:26.220 question how would it promote free speech how on earth can it promote free speech i'm asking a

00:18:32.300 question too sir you're a minister all the questions you didn't answer anything about my question

00:18:37.820 how would it promote free speech you didn't answer anything how would it promote free speech

00:18:42.060 How would it promote free speech? Sir, the Canadian people elected you. Can you give

00:18:50.020 them an answer? How would it promote free speech? Would you be gracious enough to give

00:18:56.660 me an answer, sir? Or are you just going to ignore the country?

00:18:59.660 You're very disrespectful.

00:19:00.860 I'm asking you a question. How would it promote free speech? It's a super quick question,

00:19:06.080 sir. All right. Thank you for not answering. Have

00:19:11.080 a good day. How can Bill C11 help freedom of speech?

00:19:14.680 Oh, well, the full video is going to be coming out later today. But the journalist there is

00:19:18.940 William. He's young and he's doing an amazing job. He was so he was persistent, very persistent,

00:19:25.840 but polite. Imagine if David Menzies did that. He'd probably get arrested. David Menzies would

00:19:30.580 have been arrested on site. Yeah. Just for being there. Probably I would have been like paper

00:19:36.060 spray or something. Yes. And Alexa would have been assaulted. Yeah, you would have been assaulted. 1.00

00:19:39.660 A hundred percent. Well, glad you two were not there. And you would have gone in for more, Alexa. 0.96

00:19:42.220 Yeah. Yeah. I just feel like they're... No, sorry. Go ahead. I just tried to be like really

00:19:48.620 far away from a politician, parliament, and police for now. Yeah, that's fair. They have your

00:19:55.980 number. They know you. Yeah. No, that's fair. Honestly, though, it's not surprising to me that

00:20:01.340 these people don't want to answer our questions. Like everyone always is like shock, outrage. And

00:20:05.420 it's like, well, they've shown us exactly who they are. They're hypocrites. They obviously aren't 1.00

00:20:10.300 working for us like the people. It's just it's not surprising. And it's maybe almost sad that I'm

00:20:16.380 not surprised that they're not answering his questions. I find them to be so pompous in the

00:20:21.320 way that they... First of all, they're like, who are you with? Because it's like, well, if you're with

00:20:25.360 one of our friend media agencies, we're going to probably file a complaint against you. And maybe

00:20:30.880 they would answer, but probably not. But they would definitely file a complaint, in my opinion.

00:20:34.240 And then when they find out it's rebel, they're just like, have a good day. And then they walk

00:20:37.760 away like they're ignoring a homeless person on the street. Like these people have no compassion

00:20:41.280 whatsoever. They're... They just... And just the elitism and the pompousness, just like,

00:20:46.960 you guys are elected bureaucrats. You're not supposed... Like, what is that... What's his name? The

00:20:52.560 the gentleman with the gray hair and the... Pablo? Pablo. He looks like he's on vacation

00:20:56.560 in France. Like, why are you... Too cool for school. He's way too cool. Like, you're supposed

00:21:00.480 to be a public servant, my friend. Like, serve the public instead of walking around with your

00:21:04.000 young assistant and your Starbucks cups. Like, it just... I want to go on vacation in France,

00:21:10.560 is my point. Yeah, I think they've just forgotten that like our taxpayers fund their wages.

00:21:15.760 Like, they've just forgotten that. Sorry, what were you going to say, Alexa?

00:21:18.800 Just for the viewer that doesn't know what William was talking about. So,

00:21:25.840 one of the constituents of the Liberals are saying a private message, 1.00

00:21:30.320 fuck you. Oh, sorry. Fuck you. 1.00

00:21:34.720 To answer to a message about... It was someone who say that she wasn't able to see a dying 1.00

00:21:43.760 parents because she was not allowed to travel. And he answered with that answer. And I found that

00:21:51.920 really outrageous. And as you see, like, Liberals would say, well, but he apologized. What? If it was

00:21:58.320 someone else from another business, probably we'd be fired at that time for having, saying that to

00:22:05.280 someone. And especially, like, it's paid probably by that same person with her tax and get that answer

00:22:14.400 from this person. It's probably, like, one of the most outrageous thing. Like, the same as when we see,

00:22:23.440 like, the police hurting people, paying by the same people that they are hurting.

00:22:29.920 Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. She's reaching out to her local politician to express her concern. Exactly.

00:22:36.880 Yeah. A legitimate concern like that would be... My parents aren't so old that they're in retirement

00:22:41.840 homes. Thank God. But if they had been during lockdown and I'm unvaccinated, I wouldn't have

00:22:46.880 been able to see them. That would have been a huge moral dilemma for myself. And it ultimately

00:22:51.200 is at the hands of them saying, I can't see my family. It's disgusting. 0.92

00:22:55.200 It is. And I think our reporter, Lincoln Jay, has an interview coming out today with

00:23:02.560 this woman. So definitely go to rebelnews.com and check that out later. Yeah. So lots of fun 1.00

00:23:09.120 hypocrisy happening within our government. Should we talk about something else? So we have an article

00:23:15.840 from CBC about the House of Commons lifting vaccine mandates. Oh, wow. It's not new news.

00:23:21.120 Another hypocrisy. Because I don't know if you know, but in Quebec, the National Assembly,

00:23:28.480 they, what I heard so far, I'm not sure it's like 100% sure, but like all the MP was not obligated to

00:23:37.760 be back for them. Oh, nice. Yeah. Well, that's all the people was working there. That wasn't obligating,

00:23:45.600 mandate. But for the other, what's fine? Rules for thee, not for me. Exactly. Exactly.

00:23:52.400 So according to this CBC article, government House leader Mark Holland put forward a motion

00:23:56.640 Thursday afternoon to end the mandate, which has been in place since last fall after House

00:24:00.480 leaders from all parties met earlier this week. Yeah, it's I mean, why now? I don't like why?

00:24:08.800 And then I guess they still have to wear masks until June 23rd, because I guess after June 23rd,

00:24:13.920 the science changes. It's just insane. They have to trickle it down. So they don't. So it doesn't

00:24:19.520 look so stupid. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, man. It's just crazy. Like, like, just give people the 0.99

00:24:26.240 choice to wear a mask or not. Like, let's like the mandates for masks have dropped literally everywhere

00:24:31.440 else. Like, why? What's the difference here? I just don't I just don't get it.

00:24:35.280 But I think it's I think it's because the House of Commons, you have more risk to get something

00:24:42.720 there. Oh, because, you know, it's all politician there. Yeah. And they're traveling. Yeah. They have

00:24:48.080 special air purifiers. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They're all over the place. That's funny what they're doing

00:24:52.480 with who. Yeah. It's just funny that this is all trickling down now after, you know, sane people have

00:25:00.240 been like, well, it's your own health that you're taking into your own hands this whole time,

00:25:07.440 one would argue. And now it's kind of like in vogue. Actually, Ezra said something months ago

00:25:12.640 in a meeting here. And he said a politician is someone who I don't know if he I don't think he

00:25:18.240 coined this, but he said a politician is someone who sees the parade walking down the street and then

00:25:21.920 runs up in front and starts waving the flag like that's kind of what's happening. And we, you know,

00:25:25.920 arguably see that with the conservatives as well. Like I personally really like Pierre Polyev and I

00:25:31.120 like what he's saying a lot, but critics of him and rightfully so are saying like, well, where were

00:25:35.920 you a year ago, two years ago when people were suffering and they're opportunists? Yeah, absolutely.

00:25:41.200 And that's a politician. That's what a politician does. I don't know. It's not I shouldn't be shocked

00:25:46.720 by it, but it's like it's disappointing that we had no one speaking for us other than like fringe

00:25:52.320 politicians like Maxime Bernier and Roman Baber. Yeah, exactly. People were speaking out, but they

00:25:57.440 were and, you know, Belinda Karajalios and Rick Nichols. Like there were people who were standing up to

00:26:02.880 these measures, these measures. Yeah. And getting kicked out of their parties for it. But now all of a

00:26:08.880 sudden, even the conservatives are like, oh, it's enough. It's enough. And it's like it was enough two

00:26:13.200 years ago. It was day one. Yeah. But in the same time, like one of the

00:26:20.720 deputy at the National Assembly here in Quebec, she decided to change party because she was speaking

00:26:28.240 out and everything. Her salary dropped of twenty thousand dollars, I think, per year. And as well,

00:26:34.720 she had like all the deputy against her. It was really hard for her. Everybody was like against what

00:26:41.120 you. She was the only one to raise her voice on hundred and I don't know, like 30 and something

00:26:46.880 like deputy. So imagine like being like everybody just turning your back on you. So I can understand

00:26:54.880 that probably Pierre Poirier at that time, maybe it was not ready. Like everybody have a time to be

00:27:00.160 ready to speak out. I don't know when exactly it raises voice. I think it was before the Freedom Convoy.

00:27:07.280 It was around the Freedom Convoy. Yeah. Yeah. You make a good point. And maybe if he,

00:27:13.520 you know, to defend him, he had he spoken up at that time, maybe he wouldn't currently be in the

00:27:19.520 top leadership position for the conservatives. Like maybe we would have someone like Erin O'Toole, 1.00

00:27:24.800 who was like playing by the rules the whole time and continues to where we have someone who played

00:27:29.280 by the rules until it was opportunistic to change. And maybe that's in our best interest,

00:27:33.440 maybe because now we have someone who is on our side, who actually has a shot at becoming the next

00:27:37.680 prime minister. I just don't think that like changing the leader is going to change the party.

00:27:41.440 I think it's a party issue. I just don't see, even if he stands by all the things he says,

00:27:46.320 I just don't see how that party is going to change because they've all failed us.

00:27:49.760 I don't know. I'm a, I'm a cynic. Yeah. I'm cynical about all politicians. Yeah,

00:27:54.640 that's fair. They're politicians. Yeah. Like to be a politician is to be someone who,

00:27:59.440 like you said, is opportunistic and wants to be like the glory, I guess. Yeah. I think,

00:28:06.080 I think, um, I forget if it was Plato or, or Socrates, but one of them, um, I think it was

00:28:11.440 Plato in the Republic. He says that people who end up being leaders of communities are the last

00:28:16.560 people who should be, because they're the ones who want the glory and the people who don't want

00:28:20.880 that glory, the people who would be better off running things. So it's like, you never get the

00:28:24.080 right person. So Alexa for prime minister, right around the ballot folks. I speak both language

00:28:33.120 at least. Yeah. And you're cute and strong and smart. And she's badass. Yeah. So I think you have

00:28:39.280 my vote anyway. I think I'm too sensitive for that. I think like, if something happened, I would be like,

00:28:46.000 just what's going on? Maybe Canada needs a little empathy. Yeah. That's awesome. Um,

00:28:53.280 so should we talk about inflation guys? It's literally killing us all. Um, so apparently,

00:29:02.160 according to the Ottawa sun, half of older Canadians are delaying retirement due to inflation. Well,

00:29:07.520 that's just sad. You work hard your whole life so you can retire. And guess what? You can't,

00:29:12.000 you just can't. Yeah. So this was, um, an Angus Reed survey was conducted and like Nat said,

00:29:17.200 have more than half of older Canadians are worried about retiring. And apparently, um,

00:29:21.440 there's a quote here that 63% of older Canadians were worried about never being able to retire.

00:29:26.480 That's a lot. I mean, maybe they're being dramatic, but my goodness. No, that's a lot. Like,

00:29:30.240 you know, when you get married and you say till death do us part, like now you're going to be saying

00:29:33.360 that to your employer because you're going to be working to the grave. Yeah. It's great. So I guess,

00:29:38.320 I guess Alexa, the three of us are never retiring, but maybe we can find a commune or something and

00:29:44.080 just camp out and farm. I'm ready to retire today. Yeah. So that's, this is harsh news for me.

00:29:51.520 It's just sad. I think it will, uh, as well change a lot of Canadians. Um, as I say, me, I'm always

00:29:59.760 being like really careful because I travel in really poor countries. So I really realized,

00:30:05.520 oh, we have the chance to have everything so close to us. Like I remember like in Africa,

00:30:13.200 I was chasing water and I was sleeping in a tent and I was washing myself like maybe one time per

00:30:19.520 three, three weeks. I was not tanned. I was third. But when you come back and you drink water from tap

00:30:27.120 water, you realize that, okay, maybe I should change my lifestyle to adapt myself to having,

00:30:34.160 you know what, the, what I need to be happy and not extra. Yeah. And I can live comfortable.

00:30:40.720 And, and it just, because the society say to you, like more your home, more you're happy and

00:30:46.480 some extra stuff that probably stay in your, um, wardrobe for like many, many years, because

00:30:52.960 you think you needed it because you saw it and it was looking pretty, but I feel attacked right now.

00:31:00.320 No, it's not true though. No, you're absolutely right. Society like keeps telling us to love

00:31:05.200 ourselves and then we'll finally be happy. Keep buying, take care of yourself, yada, yada, yada.

00:31:10.240 Yeah. Like self-care. Go on the trip. We've talked about this on our show, but like self-care

00:31:13.120 is literally like, well, you need to spend money for self-care. You need to take time off of work

00:31:17.440 for self-care. You need to go on a vacation. You need to have, like, I made an example of they sell these

00:31:20.720 like little tiny mini fridges that you're supposed to keep by your bed to keep all your night creams

00:31:24.400 in so they can keep cool. It's like, you don't need that. You don't need that. You don't need

00:31:28.720 that. We don't need half. Yeah. She needs it and we'll buy her one later. But I think like you're

00:31:32.640 so, you're so right. You hit the nail on the head. Like contentment leads to joy. Like when you're just

00:31:36.720 content with where you're at, I think that's when you'll find peace. Um, and I think that's definitely

00:31:42.240 missing in Western society. And I think that's why people are making up so many problems, you know,

00:31:46.480 like about pronouns and stuff like that. Cause they're, they're, they're continually searching

00:31:50.960 for what's going to make them feel better about themselves. And it's just very misled.

00:31:56.480 But the society told you like, oh yeah, bye, bye. And we will begin to be a society that we live

00:32:03.760 over what we are capable to do it. And now people have a lifestyle that costs really a lot. And now it's

00:32:11.840 the one that suffered the most because the one that take like, you know, uh, they have no car,

00:32:16.960 but they still use the bus, but the gas doesn't really affect them for now, uh, until the bus or

00:32:24.400 the, um, transportation rise their cost, but they will see, see it more on the food, but they will make

00:32:31.520 choice on the food. Now that's saying, instead of buying, you know, uh, some fruit that this price,

00:32:39.520 I would change my natural habit to change and try something else because it's cheaper.

00:32:45.600 And, and the, my only point in the inflation is the hiding inflation. When we see package that you

00:32:53.760 have like example, one granola bar less in the box, but I think you buy the same thing, but you have less

00:33:00.720 on grand and it's just because, um, the company doesn't want you to see that you pay more for

00:33:08.720 what you get. This is not right. Have you seen the size of granola bars these days? They're like,

00:33:13.360 they used to be, and maybe cause I had little baby hands. Like a bag of chips. They're like half

00:33:16.960 empty now. And you're like, this is like $5 for less. That's such a great point. Yeah. You know,

00:33:22.320 my dad and I were having a conversation about this. Um, and we were talking about why there was only so

00:33:26.640 few doctors speaking out on mandates and stuff, uh, stuff. Um, and he made a point that because so

00:33:35.600 many people are living paycheck to paycheck, people have so much debt and you literally can't,

00:33:40.080 you don't have the freedom to speak out. So people were like, well, why aren't, and maybe it goes for

00:33:44.480 politicians too. Like, why weren't more people feeling free to say, I, I disagree with these

00:33:49.280 mandates. It's because like, they literally have fancy cars and they have a huge house that they,

00:33:52.960 like you said, Alexa, they live outside their means and they have all this debt and

00:33:56.480 all these financial obligations and they literally cannot afford to miss even one paycheck. So it's

00:34:01.520 like zip, like debt keeps you silent because you're, and it's like, kind of like, why wouldn't banks

00:34:06.560 and big government want that? Yeah. Because then we're way more compliant when they know that we

00:34:11.200 cannot afford to speak out and lose our jobs. So I was talking with the actuary, uh, here in Quebec,

00:34:17.680 and he was explaining to me, you know, uh, we shut down the economy, we shut down the business, but

00:34:24.320 when you print money, but you have no production. So every production needs to be paid. And if you have

00:34:33.280 no production, you just get inflating. Like, so the value of everything's get higher because you keep

00:34:40.800 printing, but you have no production. So of course, same if everybody was like, okay, everything will go.

00:34:47.280 Okay. We will pay you. You stay home. It was absolutely, absolutely sure that inflation and

00:34:56.560 probably a recession would come. And especially when we, we look at, so we all say that it was,

00:35:03.840 uh, I don't know how you call it in Ontario benefit recovery or something from the government,

00:35:09.280 uh, when, uh, when you were locked down. Yeah. Yeah. So they, if I think in Quebec, they calculated

00:35:16.080 how much they give. And, um, for that, for the normal citizen, it was about four or five billion

00:35:22.160 of dollars at the end. But when we look at, uh, entrepreneur, big businesses, we talk about 90

00:35:29.040 billion of dollars. They were giving three quarter of their salary for being shut down. This is

00:35:37.440 what hurt the most, um, the country keeping like entrepreneur and big company, three quarter of them,

00:35:44.960 what they, they gain, uh, on salary, but telling them you cannot produce, you cannot do anything.

00:35:51.040 They were able to keep their business open, especially for construction field or anything,

00:35:56.000 but they shut it down for no reason. And now it's everybody in Canada that will pay. It's not them.

00:36:03.680 Their salary would not change at the parliament. Politicians will always gain the same, uh, salary.

00:36:09.600 Their salary will never be in effect, but normal citizens, uh, like medium wages are now will suffer

00:36:17.520 a lot. I'm thinking of like suicide that will probably come on this, um, big depression and mental

00:36:26.160 illness. And, uh, and we have already damaged from the lockdown on the mental illness. So imagine in

00:36:35.040 a couple of days that will as well raise like, uh, violence. People will fight for having like, uh,

00:36:42.160 what they need and money. They will probably have more robbery because people have nothing to make

00:36:48.400 survive their own family. What they, they, they, they are thinking to expect like gas is tax and

00:36:55.280 it's tax on tax. Hello. Yeah. No. And I think like, uh, our reliance on foreign gas is deaf has a lot to

00:37:03.120 do with why inflation is so high because we have the resources here. If the government in the United States

00:37:08.000 and Canada just built the pipeline and we were able to rely on our own resources, I really think

00:37:12.480 that inflation would be a little more at level, I guess, because we're relying on foreign oil and

00:37:19.040 there's only so much it's supply and demand, you know, and it's just, it's so egregious that our,

00:37:24.000 our politicians don't want to do that because they want to seem like they care about the environment

00:37:29.120 or whatever. It's just, it's insane. People are suffering. And you know what? Every politician,

00:37:35.760 like, like in conservative leadership, they were like, we will extract, um, the mineral and their

00:37:41.920 natural resources. Hello, Mr. Legault banned that. He banned the fact to extract or to produce anything

00:37:49.520 from our province. But we have no problem bringing it in from somewhere else, especially places where

00:37:55.200 we ideologically conflict like Saudi Arabia and Russia. We're like, that's fine. We'll take your oil. 0.96

00:37:59.840 It's sorry to cut you off. And apparently rent prices are now going through the roof as inflation

00:38:07.840 soars. Um, so maybe we can talk about that a little bit. There's an article here from, I believe,

00:38:13.440 CTV news, just as a nice little segue. Um, so apparently an economics professor at Concordia

00:38:20.160 University in Montreal said Canadians can expect to see the rate of inflation increase in the near

00:38:24.160 future as well as in a rise in rent prices. Um, apparently Toronto saw rent prices skyrocket

00:38:30.720 between 2021 and 2022 with average rent price of a one bedroom until a unit in the city at 2133 per

00:38:38.000 month, a 15.7% increase compared to the year before. What? That's nuts. And like the, our wages aren't

00:38:45.760 going up. And we already had a housing crisis before all of this inflation. Yeah. Like people,

00:38:50.560 we like five, six years ago, people were already like, it's so expensive to live in the cities.

00:38:54.960 I, I, I don't know what it's like in Quebec. Yeah. What's it like? What is it? What's it cost

00:38:58.880 for like a one bedroom there? So I would say like us in Quebec, we have a kind of chance so that it's

00:39:06.880 not really affecting, it's affecting. I would not say that it just like, um, I was talking with someone

00:39:13.040 during, I was doing like a streeter and the guy say, you know, I, I left my apartment. I was paying

00:39:18.240 like 700, but my, my, um, owner, the owner of the, the place, uh, ran after me for $1,200. So it's,

00:39:28.960 it's, it's, it's five or like $500 more, uh, on the, on the same place, just because he left,

00:39:37.200 because we have like, um, a protection on the bell that you cannot raise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

00:39:42.800 We have that as well. Yeah. But if you leave your place, you can increase like the price as, uh,

00:39:49.600 the normal level of, uh, the renting place. But here at, we, I would say that it's different if

00:39:56.000 you take it with furniture or not, but it's turned around Quebec city. I'm talking, uh, but around

00:40:03.120 eight, seven, 800. It's not, it's not too bad. It's depending on how many cities.

00:40:07.920 Let's all move there. If you go to Montreal, you can see the big difference. Okay. It's,

00:40:14.400 the price is really more high because Quebec, it's mostly like student or like, you know, people work

00:40:22.560 around, but it's, it's, it's not a really industrial, uh, place. Right. But we can see in the suburb,

00:40:30.560 like neighbor price is getting high too. Like people have really a high, a hard time to find

00:40:38.640 place to stay here. Our problem is not, it's not as the price as we don't have apartment. We don't

00:40:46.320 have any place because we have a restriction on building. Yeah. So we don't have enough space.

00:40:54.000 So it's supply and demand for the people. Yeah. Yeah. Well like liberals hate construction and

00:40:58.880 just like, um, infrastructure infrastructure. Yeah, no, definitely. She, she knows how to read

00:41:03.760 my mind. I read her mind. Um, yeah, it's just insane. And the thing is, if people can't afford

00:41:08.640 to pay their rent, they're never going to be able to afford to buy a home ever because all your

00:41:13.360 disposable income is now going towards your inflated rent. Like, what are you, what are people

00:41:17.440 supposed to do? I guess we'll just own nothing and be happy and we'll eat crickets. I guess. Yeah.

00:41:21.760 We're going to eat crickets. What do you think it would happen? Well, okay. According to this

00:41:27.280 article. Oh, sorry. No. What do you think? I would just say, what do you think it would happen?

00:41:31.760 Just because people, some people would not pay their rent. Right. And the owner would have a hard

00:41:37.520 time to get their money. That's happened, um, historically and it's happening here a lot right

00:41:42.800 now. Yeah. We talked about that on the show as well, where it's, what's it called? Economic

00:41:46.400 disobedience. Yeah. Where people just refuse to pay rent and, um, which is not fair to the landlords

00:41:50.720 either. It's not fair to the landlords, but some like, uh, I, I read that, I forget which city it

00:41:55.920 was in the U S but I think it was in the seventies or eighties. The rent was at, I think it was New

00:42:00.160 York, New York city. Yeah. And it, the rents were just increasing, increasing like crazy. So people

00:42:04.320 started and there's a musical about it called rent, which is actually a great musical. Um, but people

00:42:09.200 just stopped paying rent and it actually imposed rent control, which you can argue is not good because,

00:42:14.640 um, landlords will specifically make your life a living hell so that you leave because they'll like,

00:42:20.560 oh, if you have like a, something broken in your apartment, they'll just be like,

00:42:22.960 it's on you. Like they don't, they have no, um, reason to no incentive to actually make your,

00:42:28.960 your living space nice experience. Exactly. So there's pros and cons to that. But in that one

00:42:35.360 situation, it, it ended up in rent control. Um, it's arguable. I don't really understand which

00:42:42.000 one's better or not, but it seems like we need, and I don't think people should not pay the rent

00:42:46.080 because like you said, it's not fair to the landlord. Yeah. Um, it's not fair to people who

00:42:49.840 pay the rent to actually are like, like you had four jobs when you moved here. Um, yeah. Like how

00:42:55.520 does that, how does that help society as a whole? I don't know what the answer is, but what did the

00:43:00.400 article say? The article did say that by the end of this year, we should see like the prices deflate

00:43:06.640 a bit, but I'm not really sure like based on what grounds, like such an empty prediction.

00:43:11.680 I'm not sure. And also why specifically at the end of the year, is there something we don't know

00:43:16.160 is I don't know. It's, it's interesting, but I feel like we're in a little bit of a bubble. Like

00:43:19.600 I am no financial or a real estate expert, but I do feel like prices are so high. Like my dad lives in

00:43:25.520 this reasonably sized house. It's, it's not very big, but it, the price of it has gone up so much in

00:43:30.480 the past couple of years. And even he was like, this is not worth that. Like it's not a reasonable,

00:43:35.360 um, rate for this home. Exactly. So I do think that maybe if, and I don't know, I, again,

00:43:41.040 not an expert on this at all. So apologies, but if the price of homes in a buyer's market go down,

00:43:46.480 I would think that rental prices should come down as well, but maybe they don't like, maybe

00:43:50.880 landlords are like, sweet. I'm making a bigger profit. Like, I don't know. Yeah. I don't know.

00:43:55.040 We should call in an expert. We should call in an expert. I am not. But I just, but I have my,

00:44:00.800 my own place that I rent. And, uh, I would say that I'm going with the flow with the price of the market.

00:44:07.760 So it's probably the market that needs to go down. Good point. Then the price of the, uh, the,

00:44:14.000 the price that you pay your place, because I don't think it's really related. At the end of the day,

00:44:19.360 you buy a place because you want to rent it and at long term make profit on it. I don't know how many

00:44:25.600 years or whatever, but I, I have something to say, uh, Toronto, what you pay for rent.

00:44:32.640 It's way higher. Like, it doesn't go really with the, yes, of course you pay a lot for

00:44:39.520 a place. I think it's almost, sometimes it's like a million dollars. It's just

00:44:45.040 houses are like 1.5 and they're not even like, when you think million dollar home,

00:44:48.960 you think like a mansion. Yeah. Like basketball courts. No, it's like a bungalow. Yeah. It's like

00:44:53.920 a one bed. Yeah. So I, I don't know if they need to review, uh, the market or do like, uh,

00:45:01.280 frozen limits, a frozen limits of, uh, the price that you, you can rent a place because right now,

00:45:08.560 uh, people can put whatever, uh, how much they want to rent that place. And that is not good for,

00:45:16.000 doesn't that drive up cost? Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah, for sure. It's just a vicious cycle and

00:45:20.720 it's about to get worse because apparently the world's largest cricket production facility is

00:45:25.440 officially complete, you guys. So we can be poor and eat bugs. Yeah. So they're, they're farming

00:45:30.480 crickets to put into, I think like meat patties, like cricket, cricket meat food. Um, where is this?

00:45:38.080 So London, Ontario, Ontario. Oh boy. So Aspire Food Group's new plant in London,

00:45:44.640 Ontario is ready to produce 9,000 metric tons of crickets annually for human and pet consumption.

00:45:51.040 Okay. No, Beatrice, you won't be eating crickets. Are you going to eat, are you going to eat them,

00:45:54.960 Alexa? I have some flour of crickets. I knew it. You're very adventurous. No, it's actually a really

00:46:03.920 high protein, uh, powder that you can cook with on muffin or crepes or bread. And it's really,

00:46:12.080 eating crickets at your house. It tastes absolutely nothing. They actually transform

00:46:17.360 it as a flour, like, uh, uh, instead of white or brown flour, you use that in the time. Like

00:46:25.520 I bought that. It's been a while, like a couple of years ago. And you know, at that time, the price

00:46:32.480 of just a small pack was so high because the demand was, uh, was there, but yeah, it just for someone

00:46:42.480 who wants to get in shape and feed the muscle and everything, it's actually a really good nutriment.

00:46:48.240 It's just like people see the bugs as you, but when it's grilled and put on flour, you don't really

00:46:56.880 realize that these actually bugs. Yeah. I think for me, it's just, it seems like there's an attack

00:47:01.600 on the meat industry and they're trying to replace farming meat via cows, et cetera, with bugs. And I

00:47:09.600 just, that scares me because we've, the world economic forums talked about this and it's just like,

00:47:13.920 like, it's like, do you think our politicians are going to be eating bugs? No, it's just the rest of

00:47:17.680 us. No, I hear what you're saying, Alexa. Yeah, absolutely. And especially if they make you more

00:47:20.800 cost effective for people. But I don't like when, when WEF people, like world economic forum people

00:47:26.320 are telling us to eat bugs, then my antennae go up. And it's like, if it was like rebels like you,

00:47:30.880 who were like, this is actually a great source of proteins, really healthy. It makes sense for my

00:47:34.160 lifestyle. Oh, that's a disgusting image. That's disgusting. Okay. But I would say something like,

00:47:39.120 uh, you know, human, uh, should not eat meat every day. We are not made for it, but it's just the

00:47:45.760 society and the risk of our life make that we eat meat mostly every day, but we are not carnivore

00:47:53.360 as human. We are omnivore. So we eat a little bit of everything and we should mix with balance.

00:47:59.760 Yeah. Yeah. Mix with everything. Yeah. It's why like the projection can get like at a high point that we,

00:48:07.360 we, we waste so much. Actually, I would say the projection is too high. And if you look at all

00:48:14.480 the grocery store, they throw away most of their stock because people are not buying it. And I'm

00:48:20.400 just like, why are you doing this? Like there's a lot of ways. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's mostly the

00:48:27.040 waste that make, uh, the meat industry look bad because it's not the consumer. Yeah. And the factory

00:48:30.960 farming. Yeah. That's gross. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We need to go back to the basics for sure. Yeah. Um,

00:48:36.240 yeah. But yeah, I'm, I'm probably not going to eat bugs. I might eat bugs if you make cookies

00:48:41.120 with bug flour. If you bring cricket cookies to the office, I'll eat them. I will eat them.

00:48:45.280 But only for you. Perfect. Yeah. Only for you. With chocolate chips, please.

00:48:48.400 Do we have any chats? Maybe we should get to some chats because we only have about

00:48:52.080 10 minutes. Yes, we do. Here. Um, do we put them on the screen these days or should I just read them?

00:48:57.360 Um, okay. I'm not the best reader. Yeah. I got, I have them here. So we have $1 from noble Canadian.

00:49:06.240 It says, uh, one pretty rebel host. I can handle two. Okay. But three rebel hosts.

00:49:10.960 Are you trying to make me smitten? Thanks for all you do. Oh, that's so sweet. It's true.

00:49:16.800 Maybe you should have sent $3. No, I'm just kidding. One for each of us.

00:49:20.240 One for each of us. That's very sweet. Thank you. Yeah, thank you. Um, we have another from

00:49:24.800 Frasier, $5. Uh, the three most beautiful and charming ladies on YouTube. Guys, I see a trend 0.70

00:49:29.840 here. Wow. That's so sweet. You should watch Misunderstood then. And well, maybe we'll have

00:49:33.840 Alexa on and the three of us. We should call this Feminine Fridays from now on. 1.00

00:49:36.080 Feminine Fridays. That's so fun. You want to take the next one? Oh yeah. Where is it here?

00:49:39.760 Noble Canadian again. Oh, Noble Canadian again. Thank you for your dollar. I don't trust any politician

00:49:44.000 that won't answer a question by rebel. Yeah, that's fair. Why are you so scared? I know.

00:49:48.320 Why are you so scared of like a young journalist with a microphone? Yeah, he's like 17. Like,

00:49:52.160 what's he going to do to you? He's a little older. Talk about his math homework? Oh no,

00:49:54.800 he's not. No, he's literally 17. He's super young. He's just going to talk about his math homework

00:49:58.160 or something. Like, I'm just kidding. He's great. The point, the point in all that is like,

00:50:03.520 journalists are not important. We are here for just ask the question. Yeah, exactly. And it's their

00:50:10.720 point to make it look good. Not us. Exactly. Anybody. Yeah. Yeah. And I've said

00:50:17.440 this before. It's like, we're only going to make you look as stupid as you make you look. 1.00

00:50:20.080 Yeah. You don't want to trick. You don't want to trick anyone. No. And especially in situations 1.00

00:50:23.920 like that, where it's just him walking down the street, holding cameras, like there's not a lot

00:50:26.880 of room for subtle, tricky editing. We don't do that anyways. People always think that like,

00:50:30.560 that's why they don't want to go on camera with us. Cause it's like, oh, you'll manipulate it. No,

00:50:34.080 people do that, but we, we don't have time. We literally, we pump out so much content in a day. We

00:50:38.960 have a no desire to do that because we literally tell the truth. That's our whole

00:50:43.120 business model. That's our shtick. And B, we don't have the freaking time or, or

00:50:47.040 energy to be manipulating every single thing to make you guys look stupid. You just make 1.00

00:50:51.440 yourselves look stupid by not answering questions. Yeah. You've done it to yourself. 1.00

00:50:55.440 Yeah, you have. I think we have another chat here from Adam Ottawa. Congratulations,

00:51:00.000 rebels. iPolitics covered William's interview of Omar, the transport goblin. Oh, wow. That's cool.

00:51:05.760 Thank you for your dollar. By the way, Adam, we appreciate that. William is killing it.

00:51:09.440 He's truly killing it. He's just snabbing all those politicians. Oh yeah. Like they're just 0.98

00:51:15.280 all like going to lunch and their fancy jackets and stuff. And they're not ready for a rebel with

00:51:20.000 a mic in their face. And it's funny. I love it. I think they're going to be taking a lot more

00:51:24.080 Ubers around or they're fancy or whatever they drive. They won't be walking anymore. We have one

00:51:29.840 from wrong way. 54 $1. Thank you. It says five months after the epic historical trucker protest in

00:51:36.320 Ottawa for a month. Has anyone heard any news on the hospitals being overwhelmed with COVID patients?

00:51:40.960 That would be a super spreader event. Yeah, no, no, but I did go to the hospital a few months ago.

00:51:47.760 I went to ER and I was talking to the we won't get into this why, but I was talking to the nurse.

00:51:52.160 I'm okay. And she said, yeah, she said that like the there weren't enough beds. And so like hospital

00:52:02.400 patients would come in and they'd wait in whatever the middle is between seeing your doctor and like

00:52:08.000 getting a room or whatever. There just weren't enough beds. So people would be waiting for their

00:52:11.280 own room or bed for up to three days because of COVID. No, just because of capacity. So like,

00:52:16.880 I don't know. I think that's been a problem for a long time. Yeah. And it's something our politicians

00:52:20.320 promised they would work on because we were in an alleged. Yeah, like you had to we were in a

00:52:24.560 pandemic. We were in a pandemic. You could have built hospitals this whole time. They could have

00:52:28.800 like have any new hospitals been built during COVID because of the pandemic in there and not just

00:52:34.240 because of the pandemic, but because of the huge gap in the health care system that it it exposed.

00:52:39.760 Yeah, maybe a good point. Like I know certain hospitals outside of the cities were empty. Like I

00:52:45.600 know nurses who were like, yeah, hey, how was it during COVID? And they're like it was empty because people

00:52:49.840 were too scared to go. Maybe. Yeah. What was it like in Quebec? Have you had many encounters with

00:52:54.640 the hospital? I hope not. No, but I was shot. Yes. I was going to say like, oh, yeah, after like the

00:53:00.880 freedom convoy, the hospital was crazy in Ottawa for by beating people by the police, but I was just

00:53:10.800 But no, in Quebec, actually, I was talking with some nurse that was telling me that

00:53:17.280 that most of the place was empty and that some people who came to the hospital first was not for

00:53:25.200 COVID. But because the tests of COVID, they have been put in the category of COVID. But it was actually

00:53:34.240 for something else, not for COVID. Yeah. So it's why I and afterwards, the the politician, I agree with

00:53:42.400 that, that they didn't make the difference between the people who enter for something else. Yeah. But

00:53:47.920 after that, after being positive, that bike of it or for COVID or with COVID. Yeah. Yeah. With COVID.

00:53:56.240 That was something that came out like only quite recently in the last couple of months that were

00:54:00.160 like, yeah, deaths caused by or deaths associated with like that. They died with with COVID. It's

00:54:06.480 completely different. And I saw a correction. I think it was in a UK newspaper that was like,

00:54:11.200 we previously reported that 4000 children died of COVID. It was like 4000 kids were infected

00:54:17.040 with COVID. And they made a little tiny little thing at the bottom air. That's a huge error. Like

00:54:22.400 of those 4000 kids, probably one or two died. Like, I don't know. Yeah, I think it was like

00:54:29.040 under like a couple hundred in the US. And obviously, it's horrifying. Any child dying is

00:54:33.920 of course, of course. So tragic. But it's different than saying 4000 children died of

00:54:37.280 COVID. That's terrifying. Yeah, no, definitely. We got another chat here. Oh, no. Finish your

00:54:41.840 thought. Finish your thought. I was just saying that, you know, it's okay if the lies come from

00:54:50.560 politicians or from the good narrative, because we can tolerate that. But if it's come from

00:54:57.920 conspiracy theory, oh, my God, we're not we are not believing that. But all the conspiracy theory,

00:55:06.080 most of them I've been like find true. Yeah, no kidding. Yeah, no kidding. Which one hasn't?

00:55:11.520 Yeah, which one hasn't? I don't know. We'll see. The earth is flat. No, I'm just yeah. I don't know.

00:55:16.320 Uh, Pamela for freedom gave us 10 bucks. Thank you so much. I live on the Sunshine Coast in BC,

00:55:21.920 and our property taxes went up 40%. Wow. Therefore, housing prices are up 40%. Single dwelling homes

00:55:28.800 starting at 1 million crazy town. You ladies rock. Wow. No, I'm sorry. It's crazy, though. That's crazy. 0.91

00:55:35.440 Yeah. How do you even live? I'm from Abbotsford, British Columbia, and the like to buy a house there

00:55:42.400 in like the lower mainland. It's not it's not nothing special. It's not on the Sunshine Coast. Like,

00:55:46.880 I mean, it's a sweet little town. But like, it's insane how expensive it is for a town. Like,

00:55:51.040 you're like, what the heck? I should I could be living in New York City. I mean, I don't want to

00:55:55.280 because I'm not allowed. But yeah, I looked up the price of like the market will crash at one point.

00:56:01.760 Yeah, I cannot have a market as high as that. Yeah. Yeah. It's a bubble. I don't know anything

00:56:08.080 about it. It's a bubble. I don't know if you remember. I think it was in 19 19 watts. I don't really

00:56:15.760 remember. But at one point, you know that someplace we didn't have any gas anymore.

00:56:20.960 So people who had like big car, they all changed for small car because they were scared to live

00:56:27.120 again. This situation where you were going to a petrol station that they were like run out of gas.

00:56:33.680 But it's probably what will happen. Or I don't know. Have you heard that now the the number of people

00:56:41.040 who have been like tour their car because they were missing gas have increased recently because some

00:56:48.800 people are just putting ten dollars or fifteen dollars and they think they will reach home, but

00:56:53.760 they don't. I do that. That's terrible. I'm like, I can make it. I can make it. Be careful. Oh my gosh,

00:56:59.760 that's so horrible. Just it breaks my heart that so many people are suffering in this in this in these

00:57:06.240 circumstances. Do you have any final thoughts? Because I think it's 1pm. Do you want to take it away,

00:57:13.600 Alexa? Wrap it up. Wrap her up. I have like some echo of like sibling people like twin people who are

00:57:22.960 like talking at the same time. But we're here for some money there. Come play with us, Alexa. I think I would

00:57:31.200 just run away. As Jacen Trudeau. But I don't think Jacen Trudeau will have been like running away from

00:57:39.120 tree girl. We'll probably have smile on things that we say. Hello. We are Rebel News and we'll be like,

00:57:44.960 holy hell. We could Project Veritas in maybe. Yeah, let's do it. Oh, that's good. Okay, we'll plan.

00:57:52.400 We'll plan. We'll keep this top secret because we're live on the air right now, but we'll chat after

00:57:56.000 this. He watches these, of course. So thank you guys for tuning in to the Rebel News daily live stream,

00:58:00.960 which airs every weekday at 12pm Eastern Time. It was great to chat with you, Alexa. It's been so

00:58:08.080 long. Come to Toronto. I haven't seen you since the Christmas party. I miss you. Please come to

00:58:12.240 Toronto and bake us cricket cookies, okay? Yeah, probably. And now that we will be able to take

00:58:18.560 the flight back. And trains. People forget. You couldn't take a train. Yeah, trains are so nice.

00:58:23.120 Yeah. So on Monday, we will resume. I think it, I believe it's Sheila and Adam. They usually do Mondays.
