Rebel News Podcast - DAVID MENZIES ｜ Antifa targets Pastor Art, Trudeau's nanny BACK on payroll

00:00:00.000 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you,

00:00:18.100 in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week

00:00:21.440 by your favorite rebels. I'm your host, David Menzies.

00:00:24.780 Well, Pastor Archer Pulaski was in Seattle last week to preside over a prayer gathering,

00:00:30.840 and then the violent hooligans who comprise Antifa showed up, and even worse, folks,

00:00:36.800 the Seattle police turned a blind eye to the carnage. Adam Seuss has all the disturbing details.

00:00:44.140 Well, here's an indicator that the next federal election is surely upon us.

00:00:48.680 You see, the Trudeau's nanny is back on the payroll, the second one, that is,

00:00:53.720 which means the Liberals are surely dusting off Sophie for photo ops. 0.95

00:00:59.360 Sheila Gunn-Reed shall explain all.

00:01:02.040 And letters, we get your letters, we get them every minute of every day,

00:01:04.960 and you had plenty to say about a petition started by a nutty professor

00:01:09.280 who wants a new and improved Ontario flag because the current one is non-inclusive?

00:01:16.780 Yikes. When, oh, when? We'll cancel culture. Shut up already. 1.00

00:01:21.280 Those are your Rebels. Now, let's round them up. 1.00

00:01:28.960 Adam Seuss here with Rebel News.

00:01:31.060 You all likely know Pastor Archer Pulaski for his resistance against COVID restrictions

00:01:36.280 and his dramatic roadside arrest.

00:01:39.340 He stayed open and continued to feed the poor, and for it, he was made an enemy of the public.

00:01:44.460 He faced not only police and government oppression, but targeted harassment for members in his urban community.

00:01:51.540 For the last little while, he has been touring the United States, and he's encountered very little problems.

00:01:56.700 But today in Portland, Oregon, we are seeing shocking footage of a speaking engagement

00:02:01.900 that he was set to be at, ostensibly being attacked by Antifa.

00:02:05.940 We joined Pastor Archer Pulaski on the phone for an update.

00:02:09.400 Pastor Archer Pulaski, thanks for joining me.

00:02:11.620 If you could give me a quick update on what happened today.

00:02:16.060 Well, we were invited to Portland, Oregon, and the event started at 12 o'clock,

00:02:22.680 and we were told to do it in a battleship memorial.

00:02:27.180 But later, the police contacted the organizers, and they've told them to move just a little bit

00:02:33.540 to the side of the park, and behold, they said to Antifa to come and do whatever Antifa does

00:02:41.100 in that location.

00:02:42.700 It was a Christian event, so it was organized by a number of churches together.

00:02:47.840 I was one of the speakers.

00:02:49.240 Before everything started, the Antifa, dressed in black, about 25, 30 of them,

00:02:55.420 started to throw firebombs on children and women.

00:02:59.880 I mean, can you imagine babies in strollers?

00:03:03.280 Firebombs, smoke bombs, tear gas, rotten eggs, and, you know, the whole craziness.

00:03:13.400 Before even everything started, the police was watching this whole thing,

00:03:19.080 seeing what was going on, the women and children being attacked,

00:03:22.600 and they did absolutely nothing, nothing.

00:03:27.320 So what we did, we continued with the event in the exact location we said we would,

00:03:33.520 at the battleship memorial.

00:03:35.480 So I gave a speech over there.

00:03:37.160 I'm going to publish it today.

00:03:40.060 And other pastors were speaking as well.

00:03:42.880 And because of the incident, we got invitation to come next week for a number of events

00:03:50.140 because, you know, that's what I love, American spirit, the patriotic spirit of, you know,

00:03:56.980 fighters, resistance, the liberty, the, you know, it's just the heart of a man that says, 0.89

00:04:05.560 who do you think you are, you gangster, wannabe tyrant?

00:04:08.520 And women, of course, because they know, I'm telling you, Adam, women stood their ground 0.99

00:04:14.160 and they said, no, we're not moving.

00:04:16.940 How dare you do this to us?

00:04:18.960 This is our city.

00:04:20.000 So we stood our ground.

00:04:21.540 A lot of people gave their speeches.

00:04:23.720 Of course, I did as well.

00:04:25.260 And we're coming back to the city next week to continue.

00:04:29.500 But what is shocking to me is that the police was involved, involved in the setup.

00:04:37.060 It was a total setup on a Christian women and children, fathers to come in a peaceful 0.61

00:04:45.680 assembly just to worship God.

00:04:47.760 And the police set those people up for a beating of a lifetime.

00:04:53.240 And thank God we had some brave Americans to come and defend and stand because other,

00:05:00.380 you know, if that was not the case, those women and toddlers and kids in strollers would 1.00

00:05:06.100 be absolutely destroyed by those gangsters, those brown shirts of Biden and Fauci.

00:05:15.280 So just to confirm, you're saying you had a spot set out and the police directed you

00:05:22.620 elsewhere.

00:05:23.460 When you got there, Antifa knew exactly where the new location the police directed you to

00:05:28.760 attend would be.

00:05:30.520 Yes, exactly.

00:05:31.700 That's what I'm saying.

00:05:32.480 It was a police setup to beat people up using Antifa as a weapon.

00:05:38.500 I mean, I know how this sounds, but I'm telling you, you can confirm this with some big names

00:05:44.440 here in the States, in Oregon, in Portland.

00:05:48.100 This whole thing was set up by the police.

00:05:50.620 I confronted police myself and I've told them, shame on you for what you have done.

00:05:56.360 And you know what they did?

00:05:57.480 They look at me.

00:05:58.440 I think they recognize who I was and they turn around and two cops, I mean, they run away 0.98

00:06:03.760 like rats for what they are.

00:06:05.760 They're not police officers. 0.99

00:06:07.220 They're gangsters in uniforms.

00:06:09.740 They're brown shirts of Adafitra.

00:06:11.580 But I told them, take down your badges, take down your uniforms and join Antifa if that's

00:06:17.920 what your desire is. 0.99

00:06:19.860 Disgusting, disgraceful and disturbing. 0.99

00:06:23.120 But the question arises, who should we have more contempt for? 0.97

00:06:26.680 The thugs who comprise Antifa or those members of law enforcement who refuse to do their job,

00:06:33.120 thereby becoming accomplices of Antifa in the process?

00:06:38.020 Unbelievable.

00:06:38.520 And joining me now is the man who has been following the Artur Pawlowski saga since day

00:06:43.840 one.

00:06:44.640 And that would be Adam Seuss in Calgary.

00:06:47.080 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, Adam.

00:06:48.900 It's having me on.

00:06:50.100 Oh, it's always a pleasure, my friend.

00:06:51.740 Adam, that video footage was absolutely shocking, especially given that this disgrace took place

00:06:58.860 in a country that has the First Amendment.

00:07:01.500 What the hell is going on with the Seattle Police Service these days that they would even allow

00:07:07.420 this to happen in the first place?

00:07:09.760 It's a wonderful question.

00:07:11.020 I wish I could say that this was a surprise.

00:07:13.160 But to be honest, this is a return to norm for Artur's experience.

00:07:18.680 He had a few weeks after his release from jail where he got to speak with like-minded people

00:07:24.220 and present and share his faith.

00:07:26.160 It all went off relatively without incident.

00:07:28.820 For a stretch, we weren't covering some troubling news on the Artur Pawlowski front, but clearly

00:07:34.820 the radical progressives weren't going to allow that to happen.

00:07:39.100 And what's more troubling is, as you mentioned, not only did the Antifa folks who showed up

00:07:45.220 bear an uncanny resemblance to the Calgary police who stormed in when they arrested Pastor

00:07:51.080 Artur Pawlowski, but we've seen, and according to Artur Pawlowski, that the police in the

00:07:55.500 United States are basically involved to some extent.

00:07:59.080 They asked him to move.

00:08:00.620 They asked the event to be relocated slightly.

00:08:02.800 And when they got to the new location, Antifa was immediately informed.

00:08:06.480 Police sat in their cars.

00:08:07.820 People were accosted attempting to return to their vehicles as property was stolen.

00:08:12.040 It's absolutely unbelievable.

00:08:13.180 You know, Adam, I'm wondering, is this the regular cop on the beat that is somehow, for

00:08:21.660 ideological reasons, siding with the thugs who comprise Antifa?

00:08:26.500 Or is it the political puppet masters of the police that are ordering them, stand down, don't

00:08:34.440 do anything?

00:08:34.920 I mean, as far as I'm concerned, Adam, the Antifa is like the militia for the Democrat

00:08:42.240 Party, and we know how left-leaning the likes of Seattle and Portland are.

00:08:47.400 What are your thoughts on that?

00:08:49.380 I think, unfortunately, when we grew up, we were taught, like, an officer is someone you

00:08:54.100 can trust.

00:08:55.380 They know to do the right thing.

00:08:56.640 If you're in trouble, run to them.

00:08:58.740 Unfortunately, now, I think to have a good police officer, they almost need to be heroic

00:09:04.600 beyond the job.

00:09:06.940 Because if you do the right thing, if you stand up against oppression, if you protect the citizens,

00:09:12.660 protect their property, as we see did not occur here, you're probably going to catch

00:09:17.320 some flack for it.

00:09:18.100 You're certainly going to get some paperwork.

00:09:19.960 It's clear from the top down, whether it be in this country, Canada, or in the United

00:09:24.880 States, that there are problems, and that politics have overrun doing the right thing

00:09:30.380 for police forces.

00:09:32.020 You know, it's incredible, because I've run into Antifa on assignments, Adam. 0.99

00:09:37.520 They are so despicable, and they are so cowardly. 0.87

00:09:40.940 And by that, I mean, they'll come to you, they'll mob you, not physically at first, they'll 0.96

00:09:45.060 have umbrellas to block camera angles, so you can't have any evidence being collected.

00:09:49.740 And then you just try to walk out of their way, and they create a situation where you

00:09:54.660 bump into them by just trying to get away, and they'll fall over backwards and scream

00:09:59.120 assault, assault, police, police.

00:10:01.400 It's like they want it both ways.

00:10:03.020 They're against the establishment, but then they want the cops to come in and make an arrest

00:10:07.000 when they pretend to be offended.

00:10:10.920 I'm just beside myself with these people.

00:10:13.740 But the thing is, Adam, I'm trying to figure out what the ostensible policy reason of Antifa

00:10:20.840 is when they go after Christians in a park praying. 0.80

00:10:25.660 What is it about praying or Christianity that is so repugnant to them? 1.00

00:10:30.980 Because I'm going to make a thesis here. 0.93

00:10:33.480 If these were, say, Muslims praying in the park, I don't think Antifa would be attacking

00:10:38.600 them.

00:10:40.060 Yeah.

00:10:40.360 And I mean, I think we've seen a bit of a correlation with many people who are standing

00:10:45.040 up for freedom and pushing back, certainly things that authoritarian governments wouldn't

00:10:49.580 like.

00:10:50.040 As has frequently been the case throughout history, there's an association with Christian

00:10:54.760 faith as well.

00:10:55.720 But I mean, there's a great irony in professing to be anti-fascist when all you do is basically

00:11:01.080 reenact the historical policies of fascists throughout history.

00:11:04.700 Targeting and persecuting Christians, wearing black block tactical gear, literally dressing 0.97

00:11:10.060 like repeated special forces throughout the history of fascism, and showing up in tactical 0.90

00:11:15.700 gear.

00:11:16.140 The other thing that's extremely vexing to me is I honestly suspect that if I walked down

00:11:20.860 the street like that alone, even if I wasn't getting into any trouble, if I was wearing

00:11:25.320 tactical gear walking down the street, I suspect I would probably be arrested or at least

00:11:30.240 questioned.

00:11:30.800 How come 20 people can come out with clear tactical training, flash bombs, all this stuff,

00:11:37.040 tear gas, and assault a group, including families, and literally steal their product as they're

00:11:42.600 walking away?

00:11:44.020 There's clearly a strong ideological bent.

00:11:47.520 And to suggest that it's anti-fascist is not the case.

00:11:50.580 The ideological bent is fascist, or at least totalitarian.

00:11:54.640 You know, Adam, that's so well said.

00:11:56.660 Antifa is a contraction, of course, of anti and fascist.

00:12:01.520 And yet my belief has always been, let's drop the anti and just call them fa because 0.99

00:12:06.940 they are fascist.

00:12:08.260 They use the tactics of fascist, violence, intimidation, vandalism, arson. 0.96

00:12:15.000 How can they claim even to be anti-fascist when you can't tell the difference between them

00:12:20.680 and fascist classic?

00:12:21.820 And there's the additional irony of the fact that all we talk about is the radicalization

00:12:27.600 of the right and the great dangers of the right.

00:12:31.180 We're literally seeing black bloc soldiers marching through the streets, shutting down

00:12:36.280 events that they don't agree with. 0.52

00:12:38.600 There's literally like violence, theft, and action being taken on by radicalized leftists.

00:12:44.340 But we don't want to talk about that.

00:12:45.480 We're talking about theoretical right-wing radicalism.

00:12:48.240 And, you know, I thought the best quote in that video was from Pastor Artur, of course,

00:12:53.520 when he told those police, if you're not going to do anything, take off your badge, take off

00:12:59.840 your uniform because you're not law enforcement anymore.

00:13:02.560 You're just part of that mob.

00:13:05.160 And I guess that leads up to, you know, my final question for you, Adam, is that this coming

00:13:10.480 weekend, Artur will be in Portland.

00:13:13.260 That might be the Antifa hub for the entire continent.

00:13:19.440 Look what they did.

00:13:20.220 I mean, people talk about an insurrection.

00:13:21.920 Look what Antifa did with the federal courthouse building several months ago.

00:13:28.020 What do you expect is going to happen here?

00:13:30.640 Because as far as I can tell, the Portland Antifa rank and file are probably feel emboldened.

00:13:37.720 They saw their Seattle brothers get away with it.

00:13:40.260 Do you expect more trouble for this group?

00:13:44.480 To be honest, I certainly hope not.

00:13:47.060 But it is probable.

00:13:48.780 On that note, though, they have been dealing with cops, police forces who are easily pushed

00:13:54.600 over.

00:13:55.300 They've been dealing with people who are moderate and milquetoast at best.

00:14:00.540 They've yet to encounter, to a real extent, Pastor Artur Pawlowski.

00:14:06.120 And I won't even say the words myself, we can use the words from the man himself, excuse

00:14:13.200 me, lions do not bow to hyenas.

00:14:16.080 So Pastor Artur Pawlowski can stand his own ground, and I don't think he'll be backing

00:14:20.660 down.

00:14:21.920 Wow.

00:14:22.300 I think to compare Antifa members to the hyenas, that's kind of insulting to the hyena

00:14:28.880 community, but a great quote, nevertheless.

00:14:33.200 Adam, great piece.

00:14:35.000 I know it's trending very well, and let's all hope and pray that none of these shenanigans

00:14:41.200 happen to Artur and the people he's going to be preaching to in Portland.

00:14:46.560 So thank you again.

00:14:47.740 Have a great weekend, my friend.

00:14:49.400 Thanks very much.

00:14:49.900 Appreciate it.

00:14:50.900 And that was Adam Seuss in Calgary.

00:14:53.740 Keep it here, folks.

00:14:54.400 More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.

00:15:01.760 Friends, I think the next federal election is much, much sooner than we think.

00:15:06.000 And today I'll show you why, based on the recent hire, or rather rehire, that the Trudeau

00:15:11.360 family just made.

00:15:12.740 Sheila Gunn-Reed for Rebel News, and I think I have a pretty rock-solid prediction about

00:15:17.000 the coming of the next election.

00:15:19.380 You know how I tell you that I like to watch the federal contracts and tenders website as

00:15:24.420 a bit of a crystal ball to predict the future actions of the Liberal government and all of

00:15:28.960 the things they plan to do to us?

00:15:31.200 Well, today I can see one contract that has really tipped me off to the closeness of the

00:15:38.220 next coming election.

00:15:40.440 People have been musing about the federal writ being dropped all over the place, but this

00:15:44.860 one contract, for me, it's early confirmation in writing, in black and white, something

00:15:50.080 more than just rumors and innuendo.

00:15:53.240 Let's go back a little, though.

00:15:55.260 Unlike the Harpers before them, who prided themselves on fiscal accountability and paying 0.99

00:16:00.720 their own way and paying for their own kids, the millionaire Trudeau family actually charges

00:16:06.880 their nanny to the taxpayer.

00:16:08.220 And for a time, they actually charged two nannies to the taxpayer.

00:16:13.200 The Trudeaus already take Grandma Margaret Trudeau almost everywhere with them, and yet the

00:16:19.200 Trudeaus still needed, at least for a time, not one but two taxpayer-funded nannies to assist 0.70

00:16:25.760 with their three kids.

00:16:28.520 I know it sounds crazy, but look at this article from back in 2016.

00:16:33.180 After months of criticism about Canadians paying for the Trudeau family's caregivers, the Prime

00:16:39.220 Minister's office said Tuesday the Prime Minister and his wife will pay the salary of a new caregiver

00:16:45.040 themselves.

00:16:45.820 The other nanny remains part of the resident's staff and will still be paid for by the taxpayers.

00:16:53.680 So, to be clear, they still had two nannies and Grandma, but they picked up the tab for the

00:16:59.500 second one, how gracious of them.

00:17:01.400 Totally just like the middle class, they totally get us, don't they? 1.00

00:17:05.740 However, the one taxpayer-funded nanny's contract ended last year. 0.94

00:17:10.880 Here it is, the order in council that ended her contract with the Trudeau family.

00:17:16.040 Order terminating the appointment of Sarah Clark, special assistant at the Prime Minister's

00:17:22.440 residence, effective August 27th, 2020.

00:17:26.260 I guess when Sophie Trudeau, Justin Trudeau's wife, was no longer able to travel and make

00:17:33.660 us pay for it or accept gifts of travel and accommodation from the Kielbergers Wee organization,

00:17:39.640 she had to do what everybody else does and take care of her own kids. 1.00

00:17:43.200 Good.

00:17:43.940 Welcome to the real world, sister.

00:17:45.880 But look at this.

00:17:47.160 Posted at the end of July and backdated a week from the date of posting.

00:17:52.800 Order, appointing Sarah Clark, that's the nanny, special assistant at the Prime Minister's 0.99

00:18:00.400 residence, and fixing her remuneration and conditions of employment, effective July 21st,

00:18:07.660 2021.

00:18:08.940 Okay, fine, nothing new.

00:18:10.640 Trudeau is charging his nanny back to the taxpayer, but what does this mean for the election?

00:18:15.360 Rehiring the nanny right now means the Liberals are dusting off Sophie Trudeau and taking her 0.94

00:18:19.980 out of storage to hit the campaign trail.

00:18:23.560 And the Trudeaus, they bring the nanny with them when they travel. 1.00

00:18:27.960 They do it all the time.

00:18:29.080 Look at this.

00:18:29.520 Page six of these March 2019 flight manifests show the Trudeau family flight to Fort Myers,

00:18:35.480 Florida, including Trudeau, of course, flying back and forth by himself during the week.

00:18:39.960 And the trip includes the nanny, Sarah Clark, and of course, extras like Sophie's parents.

00:18:45.660 When was the last time we truly saw Sophie Trudeau?

00:18:47.920 I mean, outside of the controversy of when she went to that super spreader event in London

00:18:51.700 at the beginning of the pandemic and brought COVID back to Canada with her?

00:18:55.260 Think about it.

00:18:56.800 I think probably the last time we really saw her was on the campaign trail doing forced 1.00

00:19:00.560 feeling cringe videos to prove the Trudeaus aren't estranged and just like every other 0.97

00:19:06.520 married couple.

00:19:08.060 The nanny's back, and I think so is the campaign. 0.88

00:19:11.880 Just watch.

00:19:12.500 But all this means the nanny should actually be a Liberal Party campaign expense or a Trudeau

00:19:18.660 family expense, but definitely not your family's problem.

00:19:23.420 Wow.

00:19:23.780 Talk about a politician being entitled to his or her entitlements. 0.57

00:19:28.920 And meanwhile, we, the beleaguered taxpayers, yep, we're paying the freight.

00:19:34.500 And joining me now for more on this story is Sheila Gunn-Reed.

00:19:38.380 How you doing there, Sheila?

00:19:39.400 David, I'm doing great.

00:19:41.340 Just taking care of my own kids like everybody else does, you know.

00:19:44.520 Oh, yeah.

00:19:45.440 Isn't that amazing?

00:19:46.500 What a concept.

00:19:47.720 You know, it's a funny thing, isn't it, Sheila?

00:19:49.580 We're all familiar with the term nanny state, but with the Trudeau clan, that descriptor is

00:19:56.280 meant to be taken literally.

00:19:58.180 But here's the thing, Sheila, as you alluded to, I don't think Sophie is gainfully employed.

00:20:04.460 Why is she unable to take care of her own kids without a nanny? 1.00

00:20:10.080 That's such a great question, David.

00:20:12.160 But they have two nannies, or at least they did for the longest time. 0.92

00:20:16.040 Plus, Grandma Margaret Trudeau goes with them everywhere, however many last names Margaret

00:20:21.400 Trudeau has.

00:20:22.200 But she stays with the Trudeau last name because that's the one that pays the bills.

00:20:27.100 Yeah, you know, unlike the Harpers before them, the Trudeaus initially, up until 2016 1.00

00:20:33.580 and public outrage, they were charging two nannies back to the taxpayer for three kids,

00:20:39.960 plus taking Margaret Trudeau with them everywhere.

00:20:42.740 And I'm pretty sure Sophie Trudeau doesn't work. 1.00

00:20:46.240 I think she, or at least she used to post a lot of things to Instagram.

00:20:50.220 And from time to time, she used to get to go on WE organization-funded trips.

00:20:57.340 But she really doesn't do all that much of anything. 0.73

00:21:01.100 You know, I can't really recall if she does any charity work.

00:21:05.640 Like, I know that Mrs. Harper did a lot of charity work for animal organizations,

00:21:11.620 but I'm not quite sure what Sophie Trudeau does.

00:21:14.760 However, you know, like, she has, for a time, at least two nannies.

00:21:21.420 And now they've rehired the one that, whose contract was terminated at the height of the

00:21:28.280 pandemic, I guess, because she likely had to choose between seeing her own friends and

00:21:32.960 family and taking care of Justin Trudeau's friends and family.

00:21:36.260 And so she chose her own friends and family.

00:21:38.500 But she's back on the public dime.

00:21:41.200 Excuse me.

00:21:42.000 And this leads me to believe that the campaign is right around the corner because Sophie is

00:21:47.640 going to need somebody to take care of her kids again. 1.00

00:21:50.540 You know, Sheila, what gets me is the audacity of the Trudeaus. 1.00

00:21:56.540 It's almost as though they consider themselves to be royalty.

00:21:59.840 I mean, you know, Justin Trudeau, he's basically a trust fund baby.

00:22:04.400 He even has daddy's classic Mercedes, which might be valued at a million dollars right now.

00:22:09.320 And yet they still feel that it is incumbent upon people, especially now in the COVID environment,

00:22:20.360 Sheila, so many businesses bankrupt, so many people unemployed.

00:22:23.520 They still feel that we should be paying their freight.

00:22:29.040 I mean, I could never do this.

00:22:31.460 I could never have the utter coldness, the utter entitlement to do business this way.

00:22:39.600 Well, and I think there's an extra layer of grossness in all of this, given that Justin Trudeau

00:22:44.360 took away income splitting that Stephen Harper had instituted into families, families like mine.

00:22:51.180 Before I started working for Rebel News, I was a stay at home mom and we had the ability to income split

00:22:57.460 because the conservatives before Justin Trudeau recognized that there was value to the work that I do as a mom.

00:23:06.100 And instead of paying somebody else to take care of my kids, you know,

00:23:10.060 why couldn't my husband just share some of that income with me and get us down into a lower tax bracket?

00:23:14.840 Justin Trudeau took that away.

00:23:16.040 That doesn't mean that fewer families choose to have one parent stay home and pay the bills.

00:23:22.040 It just means that, like, it just means now that Justin Trudeau is having those people pay for his nannies

00:23:31.060 because Justin Trudeau is not willing to make the choices that the rest of us are making.

00:23:34.840 And let's not kid ourselves.

00:23:36.180 Justin Trudeau's in the 1%, as you rightly point out, a millionaire.

00:23:39.860 Plus he makes a healthy salary as the prime minister.

00:23:43.640 So why can't he pay for his own kids?

00:23:46.620 Stephen Harper did it.

00:23:47.820 Why can't he?

00:23:49.460 Yeah, unless, of course, he thinks these kids are a burden

00:23:53.560 and the less time he can spend with them, the better, therefore, the nanny. 0.96

00:23:58.120 But, of course, in the big picture, Sheila, as you rightfully point out in your video,

00:24:01.980 this is probably a telltale sign that an election is indeed coming down the tracks any day now.

00:24:09.180 The idea that we're going to have to, as you put it, dust off Sophie to bring her on all those photo ops

00:24:17.260 so they can pretend that they're this happily married couple again, a love of Clintons.

00:24:23.240 I guess this is ultimately what this doubling down on the nannyism is all about, isn't it?

00:24:32.320 Yeah, I think so.

00:24:33.900 And it's funny that you chose the Clintons, who are an equally awkward married couple pretending to be totally normal and middle class and they're anything but.

00:24:42.580 Yeah, I think we should just prepare ourselves to be inundated with cringy videos of Justin Trudeau and his wife pretending not to be estranged,

00:24:52.920 pretending to be totally normal, visiting pumpkin patches like they think normal middle class people do.

00:24:58.420 And, you know, at the end of the day, all this means to me is not only is charging your nanny to the taxpayer gross,

00:25:07.960 but at the end of the day, it's so that Sophie can get out on the campaign trail, 0.92

00:25:12.260 which means this is a Liberal Party campaign expense.

00:25:14.840 This is not my family's problem.

00:25:16.580 This is not your family's problem.

00:25:18.460 If they're going to use Sophie Trudeau as their campaign secret weapon,

00:25:22.660 and I guess they're gonna, that's a campaign expense.

00:25:26.500 That's a Liberal Party expense.

00:25:27.900 It's not a taxpayer expense.

00:25:30.140 Wow.

00:25:30.580 Well, one final question, Sheila.

00:25:32.260 If I were a betting man, and I am, what are the odds that Sophie is gonna sing during one of these election pit stops?

00:25:41.160 Oh, I think the chances that Sophie's gonna warble us a tune are about 50-50.

00:25:47.800 I like those odds.

00:25:49.640 Yeah.

00:25:51.460 Well, Sheila, we can laugh about it now, but inside, I think we, like our audience, we're crying.

00:25:57.900 Yet another malicious use of taxpayer funds.

00:26:01.720 And ultimately, it's all about creating optics on the hustings once the election is called.

00:26:07.200 How shameful is that?

00:26:08.400 Great commentary as usual, Sheila.

00:26:10.040 Thank you so much.

00:26:11.680 Thanks, David.

00:26:12.200 Have a great weekend.

00:26:13.040 You too.

00:26:13.480 And that was Sheila Gunn-Reed, somewhere in the northern hinterland of Alberta.

00:26:18.700 Keep it here, folks.

00:26:19.660 More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.

00:26:21.740 David Menzies for Rebel News here in downtown Toronto.

00:26:30.120 Well, folks, is Ontario's provincial flag too colonialist and too non-inclusive?

00:26:37.320 Well, that is certainly the opinion of Mano Majumdar.

00:26:42.720 He is a lecturer at Western University's Ivy Business School, and he has started a petition

00:26:50.180 to get a new flag for the province of Ontario.

00:26:54.860 Yep, cancel culture is still putting its pedal to the metal.

00:26:59.100 Well, evidently, this is what Mr. Majumdar had to say.

00:27:04.560 We have a lot of words being spoke about reconciliation and inclusion.

00:27:09.500 If we're not even able to take this one minor step towards making a symbolic commitment

00:27:15.820 to actually having a different society, then we have no credibility when we talk about

00:27:22.600 reconciliation and inclusion.

00:27:25.220 Fancy that.

00:27:26.080 And he has launched a petition, and this is what the petition states.

00:27:31.960 The best flags are distinct and inclusive.

00:27:35.480 Ontario's is neither.

00:27:38.100 This petition calls on the Ontario legislature to replace the provincial flag with a more distinct

00:27:45.120 and inclusive flag chosen by democratic means.

00:27:49.260 Well, you know what?

00:27:50.260 I really like the democratic means part of the petition.

00:27:53.940 So we reached out to a graphic designer.

00:27:57.300 He came up with four concepts, four new potential Ontario flags that might be more inclusive and

00:28:05.800 less colonialization.

00:28:09.120 Our first one was a spirit unicorn behind a multicolored flag.

00:28:14.820 Um, it's cute.

00:28:17.160 Who would find a fence in that?

00:28:19.400 Uh, then we have, uh, the kids from kid power, completely diverse, completely multiracial.

00:28:26.300 Um, hey, they say kids are the future.

00:28:29.700 Uh, personally, I think it's the hovercraft.

00:28:31.660 Then we have a illustration of cherry cheesecake.

00:28:36.160 This is a reminder to the people of Ontario to always be diligent when the next coronavirus

00:28:44.340 wave strikes, as the premier says, get in your basement, bake cherry cheesecake safely.

00:28:50.580 Oh, I haven't had one of these in years.

00:28:55.960 And the third one, well, it kind of looks like the flag of surrender, doesn't it?

00:28:59.400 It is a simple white flag.

00:29:01.920 Um, that is completely, well, I guess it is the flag of surrender, or you could look upon it as being a etch-a-sketch canvas.

00:29:12.680 You fill in your own illustration, your own phrase, the sky's the limit.

00:29:19.480 How's that for the democratic process?

00:29:21.240 Anyways, let's find out what the people of Toronto, Ontario have to say about these concepts

00:29:28.040 as a replacement to the traditional Ontario flag.

00:29:32.820 So, what would you choose, sir?

00:29:35.340 The correct facetious answer, of course, is the blank one, so I can add whatever I f***ing like.

00:29:42.680 Or do you think that might be confused as the white flag of surrender?

00:29:47.700 Ooh, ooh, you see, that's a good point.

00:29:50.960 Yes.

00:29:51.320 Why not have an infinitesimal dot that's black on it so you can say the flag is completely white?

00:29:59.200 Oh, okay then, but maybe people would prefer a predominantly black flag with a little white dot.

00:30:05.920 That option should be there as well.

00:30:07.600 Maybe we could have both.

00:30:08.620 It's like sports teams, they have home and away jerseys that are reverse of each other.

00:30:12.880 Now, that makes sense.

00:30:13.800 How would you choose, sir?

00:30:14.600 I would pick the white canvas because you've got to leave the flag alone, man.

00:30:16.960 It is what it is.

00:30:17.700 It's been here.

00:30:18.560 The flag's been here before we were here, man.

00:30:20.820 Like, you know, you can't reinvent the wheel, right?

00:30:23.900 A wheel's a wheel's a wheel.

00:30:25.920 This one.

00:30:26.440 Spirit Unicorn.

00:30:27.520 Yeah, you really can't.

00:30:28.480 I can't see that being offensive to anyone.

00:30:30.440 How about yourself?

00:30:32.400 The Unicorn one.

00:30:33.520 Unicorn two.

00:30:34.180 Okay, two for the Unicorn.

00:30:35.180 Which one would you vote for?

00:30:37.400 Well, there you have it, folks.

00:30:38.440 From certain Dr. Seuss books to statues of historical figures to sports team nicknames and logos,

00:30:44.760 absolutely nothing escapes the wrath of the cancel culture mob these days.

00:30:49.980 And now, apparently, flags are triggering to Snowflake Nation?

00:30:54.540 Give me a break.

00:30:55.720 In any event, you had plenty to say about yet another crackpot idea cooked up by a supposed intellectual to improve Canada by, well, trying to eradicate Canada's history.

00:31:09.840 Ryan writes,

00:31:10.620 Imagine going to someone else's country and trying to change their flags.

00:31:14.860 See how far you get.

00:31:16.580 Indeed, the flag of the Taliban, I understand, is now flying in certain regions of Afghanistan.

00:31:22.300 I wonder how the peace-loving rank-and-file of the Taliban would react if I told them that I was offended by their flag and I wanted it altered.

00:31:31.520 Actually, I think we all know how they would react.

00:31:34.340 And J.M. Music writes,

00:31:36.560 Totally with that guy who said, F those people.

00:31:40.280 You know, J.M., I try to steer clear of profanity, but you are correct.

00:31:44.880 There are certain instances in which you just have to drop an F-bomb or two.

00:31:50.220 One angry Canadian writes,

00:31:52.660 I'd like to start cancelling all the cancel culture people. 1.00

00:31:56.540 Now, that's my kind of cancel culture.

00:31:59.360 And that's not about cancelling at all, is it?

00:32:02.220 But rather, it's about restoring the culture to an environment where we could agree to disagree

00:32:09.100 and we didn't have to worry about the hurt feelings of gender studies graduates.

00:32:14.960 Ah, the good old days.

00:32:17.260 John L. writes,

00:32:18.380 And get this, John, this nutty professor is now playing the victim card because of all the negative feedback he's been receiving. 0.70

00:32:40.460 Aw, poor baby. 1.00

00:32:43.120 And Richard K. writes,

00:32:44.980 Speaking as someone from England, I find the flag absolutely great.

00:32:50.000 And speaking as someone who was born and lives in Ontario, I totally agree with you, Richard K.

00:32:56.280 But gee, Richard, does our love of the Ontario flag make us bigots?

00:33:01.920 Folks, the world is insane.

00:33:04.380 The only question is this.

00:33:06.260 Have we reached peak insanity yet?

00:33:08.860 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup.

00:33:12.020 Thanks so much for joining us.

00:33:13.300 See you next week.

00:33:14.000 And hey, folks, never forget, without risk, there can be no glory.

00:33:18.400 Good night.

00:33:18.840 Good night.

00:33:18.880 Good night.

00:33:21.040 Good night.

00:33:22.380 Good night.

00:33:38.860 Good night.

00:33:49.520 Good night.

00:33:50.640 Good night.

00:33:51.940 Good night.

00:33:52.500 Good night.

00:33:53.520 Good night.

00:33:54.980 Good night.
