Rebel News Podcast - DAVID MENZIES： Things the Canadian government has done： promoted suicide and trampled a protester with a horse

00:00:00.100 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you, in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favorite Rebels.

00:00:08.660 I'm your host, David Menzies.

00:00:10.960 Wow, check out that new whiz-bang marketing campaign by Montreal-based Simons.

00:00:17.000 The retail chain isn't promoting its line of clothing or home goods, rather it's promoting suicide? 0.98

00:00:24.640 What the hell?

00:00:25.700 Sheila Gunn-Reed has all the gruesome details. 0.93

00:00:30.000 Do you remember the horrific case of Candice Saro, the elderly Indigenous woman who was trampled by a police horse in Ottawa back in February?

00:00:41.100 Well, this just in, folks.

00:00:42.760 The Special Investigations Unit is no longer investigating her case.

00:00:47.920 Apparently, she wasn't maimed enough?

00:00:51.740 Unbelievable.

00:00:52.500 Our Montreal-based reporter, Alexa Lavoie, who was also injured in February, last February, thanks to police brutality, has all the details.

00:01:02.640 And letters, we get your letters.

00:01:04.460 We get your letters every minute of every day.

00:01:06.480 And you had plenty to say about Justin Trudeau's Royal Canadian Mounted Henchmen looking like the Argos defensive line by, once again, physically preventing Prime Minister Blackface McGroper from hearing any insensitive questions from Rebel News.

00:01:24.820 Those are your Rebels.

00:01:26.200 Now let's round them up.

00:01:27.440 We'll be right back.

00:01:57.420 When I imagine my final days, I see bubbles.

00:02:03.580 I see the ocean.

00:02:05.980 I see music.

00:02:08.820 Even now, as I seek help to end my life, there is still so much beauty.

00:02:15.200 You just have to be brave enough to see it. 0.85

00:02:18.480 Talk about a dystopian, sick advertisement.

00:02:22.040 But that's only part of the story.

00:02:24.020 The company behind that ad is called Simons.

00:02:26.520 They're a Canadian fashion and home goods retailer.

00:02:30.680 They reportedly staged excursions for this young woman to film as some, I don't know, brand building exercise.

00:02:37.880 Here now is Sheila Gunn-Reed, editor-in-chief of Rebel News.

00:02:41.500 She's running a national campaign to force the government to end this practice. 1.00

00:02:46.140 Sheila, it seems to me that they're selling assisted suicide with a very sophisticated, fun, kind of adventurous message.

00:02:58.120 What the heck is going on up north?

00:03:00.040 Laura, I just want to thank you so much for your interest in this.

00:03:04.880 Unlike the corporate media here in Canada that's been tainted by Justin Trudeau's bailouts at Rebel News,

00:03:10.240 we're one of the few independent outlets that can still speak about these issues freely,

00:03:15.500 but also with the sense of horror the issue rightly deserves.

00:03:20.100 We see companies do this all the time.

00:03:22.560 We see them align themselves with government on issues like climate change and BLM and reproductive issues.

00:03:30.300 They go woke.

00:03:31.320 This is what it means to be woke in Canada now.

00:03:33.760 So why wouldn't corporations align themselves with this next anti-human, anti-life thing?

00:03:41.280 I just want to point out to you how extreme Canada is on this issue.

00:03:46.360 Justin Trudeau's government has removed the 10-day wait time from when you ask for medical assistance in suicide and when you receive it.

00:03:54.180 And you don't have to do it in writing.

00:03:56.380 You can just verbally ask the state to kill you.

00:03:59.020 To put this all into context, we had about 16,000 deaths in Canada related to COVID, depends on how you count that, of COVID or with COVID, but it was 16,000 deaths.

00:04:10.040 We know that there were 10,000 requests in writing for medically assisted suicide, and that doesn't take into account the deaths that occurred because somebody just verbally asked for it and received it on the very day that they asked for it.

00:04:25.420 And when we say medical assistance in suicide, don't think for a second that that means doctors participating in this.

00:04:33.120 It doesn't have to be your doctor.

00:04:35.280 It can just be a medical professional.

00:04:37.280 That might be a nurse that is seeing you today for the first time or even a pharmacist that's helping you take a short trip off a long or, you know, take a short trip off the earth.

00:04:52.260 That's the state of affairs here in Canada.

00:04:54.260 Well, here's the CEO of Simons, the company that produced that pro-euthanasia campaign.

00:05:00.520 Watch.

00:05:01.420 It's obviously not a commercial campaign.

00:05:04.500 It's more an effort to use our freedom, our voice, and the privilege we have to speak and create.

00:05:11.980 Companies have a responsibility to participate in communities and to help build the communities that we want to live in tomorrow and leave to our children.

00:05:23.580 Okay, so, Sheila, how are we actually building communities if the goal is to help kill people?

00:05:31.400 I'm not following this logic.

00:05:33.180 That guy is weird, okay? 0.97

00:05:34.560 He's just a weirdo. 0.87

00:05:35.760 But assisted suicide now is the way to a, you know, a better, more stable society. 0.98

00:05:42.520 It sounds like something you'd hear out of the CCP.

00:05:46.460 Well, and what does this have to do with ladies' clothes? 1.00

00:05:49.080 That man sells ladies' clothes.

00:05:51.060 What does that have to do with anything?

00:05:52.700 In Canada right now, if you annoy a government bureaucrat whose job it is to help you through your acute medical or psychological issues that you're experiencing on that very day,

00:06:03.460 they will suggest to you that maybe you should just do us all a favour and help yourself to some sanctioned homicide.

00:06:10.780 We know of at least seven military veterans who have been experiencing acute PTSD who were offered medical assistance in dying by Veterans Affairs.

00:06:22.140 We also know about parents of sick babies who have been offered medical assistance in dying.

00:06:28.260 Oh, they want to get, it's like they want to get human life off the books.

00:06:32.200 Yeah, well, they want to get human life that's inconvenient off the books.

00:06:35.040 They, it's kind of obvious where this is all going, if anyone wants to pay attention to what we're talking about here.

00:06:41.380 Sheila, you're doing an invaluable service in Canada by raising the awareness about this.

00:06:46.460 We're going to stay on this because if it's there, believe me, it's going to be growing as a movement in the United States as well.

00:06:52.460 We appreciate it. Thank you.

00:06:54.120 Wow. Having a bad day, going through a relationship breakup, perhaps suffering from PTSD.

00:07:00.200 Hey, what's to discuss? Simply volunteer for assisted suicide and voila, all of your problems are over once and for all.

00:07:09.280 No muss, no fuss. Sickening. 0.99

00:07:12.980 And with her thoughts on this disturbing state of affairs is Rebel News Chief Reporter Sheila Gunn-Reed.

00:07:20.420 How are you doing there, Sheila?

00:07:22.320 David, I'm great. Thanks for having me on the show.

00:07:24.460 Well, that is fantastic. And what a great interview with Laura Ingram of Fox News.

00:07:28.880 And Sheila, so many angles here to unpack. 0.98

00:07:31.820 But first of all, isn't Simmons in the business of, you know, selling clothes and home goods?

00:07:38.800 How is it that a pro-suicide ad campaign is a so-called brand building exercise to begin with?

00:07:48.280 Well, they also said it was a community building exercise.

00:07:50.520 And I was like, you're threatening to off the community.

00:07:53.520 So I'm not quite sure how that's building the community when you're making sure there are fewer people in it.

00:07:57.420 But we see this all the time. As I said to Laura, we see corporations align themselves with whatever government agenda is before them.

00:08:07.440 We should be used to it now with regard to climate change.

00:08:11.860 For some reason, your grocery store has the pride flag up with BLM shirts in Walmart, companies virtue signaling about reproductive rights when they should be just trying to sell you clothes and food.

00:08:27.240 So we see this all the time.

00:08:28.860 And this is just what it means now to be a woke corporation in Justin Trudeau's Canada.

00:08:35.280 You also have to be a euthanasia extremist.

00:08:38.920 You know, and Sheila, let me challenge you on that point, because, you know, the bottom line of being in business is indeed the bottom line.

00:08:45.140 You want to make money.

00:08:46.080 You want to embrace messaging and marketing campaigns and advertising that will attract consumers and move the merchandise.

00:08:55.800 So the thing is, I'm just wondering when it comes to this retailer, do you think they did market research?

00:09:02.640 Do you think they did focus groups and they came to the conclusion that, hey, you know what?

00:09:07.280 Taking a pro-suicide stance, that is going to help us move the merchandise, or is this something being enacted upon by this CEO?

00:09:19.180 I definitely don't think that they enacted any sort of market research.

00:09:24.580 Just ask Disney.

00:09:25.720 These companies continue to go woke and go broke, and they really don't have a reset button until such time as Disney now.

00:09:38.040 They've replaced their CEO because it's costing them extreme amounts of money and movies are flopping.

00:09:44.880 But they never really asked the customer up until now whether or not they wanted all the social justice shoved down their throat.

00:09:53.720 It became a point in which they were losing so much money that, at the end of the day, capitalism wins.

00:10:00.940 And I wonder, you know, what's going to happen with Simons?

00:10:05.360 Are they going to proceed down this road until finally somebody says, I'm never shopping there again, you pro-homicide weirdos?

00:10:15.280 Enough people are going to have to do that until the CEO changes his mind about putting his personal politics in with, you know,

00:10:22.920 the corporate mandate.

00:10:24.960 No, you're so right.

00:10:26.100 Right now, we're into December, Sheila.

00:10:28.360 This is where retailers make the bulk of their profits over the year with the Christmas merchandise sales.

00:10:35.240 And I'm just wondering if this ad campaign draws more customers to Simons, or it has the opposite effect.

00:10:43.280 People are going, I'm not going there.

00:10:45.000 In fact, I'm going to boycott this chain until it pulls its ads.

00:10:49.560 How do you think this will play out if you are looking into a crystal ball right now?

00:10:54.480 I think the people who care will care and not go there.

00:10:57.800 But I'm not sure that as a Canadian society, we are aware enough of just how radical we are on this issue.

00:11:08.560 And, you know, this is posted on, I think, the Simons YouTube page.

00:11:14.140 I don't know about you, David, but I don't watch a lot of YouTube videos from a clothing company, generally speaking.

00:11:20.100 So I'm not sure how widely this was viewed before it caught the nose of our American friends who said, this is crazy.

00:11:30.000 What has this got to do with selling ladies clothes? 1.00

00:11:32.600 So I'm not sure that enough Canadians really will be outraged about this as much as I am.

00:11:38.660 This beautification of people in their most darkest, desperate moments being offered something other than the help that they need to live on.

00:11:50.240 You know, it really is incredible, Sheila, how this assisted suicide is really taking off.

00:11:57.560 And, you know, I think I might have mentioned this before.

00:11:59.860 I look back at the science fiction film from 1973, Soylent Green, based on a book from 1965.

00:12:06.760 And how much of that is coming true, such as not only is suicide in the future legal, but the remaining family members get benefits from the state.

00:12:18.920 There is a food alternative, which is the title of the movie.

00:12:24.560 I'm not going to give a spoiler here about what the food is.

00:12:28.020 It's not insects.

00:12:28.920 It's something even worse.

00:12:30.080 And the funny thing is, the uncanny thing is, Sheila, is that Soylent Green is set in the here and now, 2022.

00:12:40.240 And here we are seeing, yes, the state championing suicide.

00:12:46.940 How did we get here in the first place?

00:12:49.820 You know, it's a neat little thing that the government is doing here because they are the architects of the suffering of these people.

00:12:56.140 And instead of fixing the system that creates the suffering, they say, you know what, let's just get you right out of the system altogether.

00:13:03.880 And then they pat themselves on the back and call it compassion.

00:13:07.280 State-sanctioned homicide these days is called compassion.

00:13:10.760 Let's look at what's really happening here.

00:13:12.420 And I think the veterans issue is a great example of this.

00:13:15.660 So, as we know, as we're told by our prime minister, our veterans are asking for more than he's willing to give.

00:13:20.280 So, they are shoehorned into a system that causes them undue suffering after they've served our country in uniform and have received psychological and physical injuries because of it.

00:13:35.200 And so, they reach out to the system we've stuck them in that is broken for help. 0.97

00:13:41.460 And if you annoy a government bureaucrat a little too much on the other end of the line, they say, you know what, why don't you just do us all a favor and drop dead?

00:13:49.760 Basically, they say it in nicer ways, but they say, you know, you're obviously suffering.

00:13:54.780 Have you considered medical assistance in dying?

00:13:56.920 So, instead of fixing the system, the broken system that causes the suffering, they just get the people out of the system by exterminating people, offering them something they would never take on a better day.

00:14:13.500 And, you know, it tidies up the loose ends for the government and it spills over into all aspects of our lives.

00:14:19.880 You know, I use the veterans example, but Canadian healthcare, really, the defining attribute of Canadian healthcare is suffering in the same lineup as everybody else.

00:14:30.240 And then, again, instead of allowing innovation in the healthcare system, we say, you know what, there are too many people in this healthcare system.

00:14:36.900 Let's get rid of a few.

00:14:38.620 No, you're quite right, Sheila.

00:14:40.300 Well, and I know Laura Ingram really acted with a bit of shock when you talked about veterans being talked into taking their own life. 0.99

00:14:50.060 I mean, it's so perversely ironic.

00:14:52.860 I mean, they go overseas and you're not so much worried.

00:14:57.480 I mean, of course, you're worried about the Taliban, the enemy, killing you.

00:15:01.040 You have no idea that once you get back into Canada, it's going to be your own government trying to almost coerce you into taking your own life.

00:15:10.860 And let's be clear, this is the opposite of empathy and compassion, Sheila.

00:15:15.220 I think to the government, a retired soldier, a veteran, especially a veteran that has injuries preventing him from being redeployed.

00:15:24.600 Well, that's a liability on the books, if you will.

00:15:28.720 That's a pension.

00:15:30.060 That's, you know, a drain on the healthcare system, if you will.

00:15:33.680 So why not just ask this guy to consent to suicide?

00:15:39.640 And it's kind of like taking a line item off the books.

00:15:43.060 I know that sounds callous, but that's what I think is going on here.

00:15:47.140 Well, how else do you explain this, Sheila?

00:15:49.320 Sure.

00:15:49.760 You know, and then you have people saying, you know, there are far too many people on the face of the earth.

00:15:55.160 Let's get rid of the sick, the elderly, the infirm. 1.00

00:15:59.560 Instead of offering people the help they need, the care they need, the actual compassion that they need,

00:16:06.740 we are treating people like they are a plague upon the face of the earth.

00:16:11.360 I just find it so abhorrent.

00:16:13.780 We've had, and it's so normalized.

00:16:15.920 We've had doctors testify in parliamentary hearings that they should consider offering medical assistance in dying to babies who are sick,

00:16:27.700 who are experiencing undue suffering, according to these doctors.

00:16:32.780 Normal societies call that infanticide and to cause such things as the fall of Rome.

00:16:37.200 I don't know how our society can exist much longer when we have such a callous disregard for human life.

00:16:46.880 One last thing, Sheila.

00:16:48.480 It's this rush to have the person take their own life.

00:16:53.200 Like, no, you know, reflection, no passage of time for maybe that person to say, you know what, I made a mistake.

00:17:00.640 And there's a good friend that we both have, Andrew Lawton, I can tell you some 10 or 12 years ago, and he's been public about this.

00:17:09.080 He was suffering so badly from depression, he actually attempted to take his own life.

00:17:14.740 He failed.

00:17:15.640 The thing is, he had a change of heart.

00:17:17.980 He's gone on to have a fulfilling career.

00:17:20.020 He's written a fantastic book just published a few months ago about the trucker convoy in Ottawa.

00:17:26.060 And I know if you talked to Andrew, who is actually in the process of trying to check out, he is so happy that did not happen.

00:17:35.860 I wonder how many people of the assisted suicides we've had in recent years, Sheila, that if given the opportunity of time, given counseling,

00:17:47.380 you know, just given the chance to have sober second thought,

00:17:51.480 how many of those people would still be here today and say, you know what, I'm so glad I didn't go through with terminating my life.

00:18:01.000 The wait time is gone.

00:18:03.260 The 10-day wait time is gone.

00:18:04.580 And you don't even have to receive medical assistance in dying from a doctor that knows you.

00:18:09.000 You don't have to be terminally ill.

00:18:10.640 You can just be chronically ill. 0.99

00:18:12.240 And come March 2023, you can be mentally ill. 0.99

00:18:17.260 And that's all you need. 0.95

00:18:18.000 So you can get medical assistance in dying right now from a pharmacist on the day you ask for it.

00:18:22.700 That's it.

00:18:23.500 There's no, as you say, sober second thought.

00:18:25.640 And I'm sure we all know somebody in our lives who has committed suicide because it is one of the leading causes of death for men, quite frankly.

00:18:33.860 I have an interview this week with the veteran who ripped the Band-Aid and exposed what was happening at Veterans Affairs with these veterans.

00:18:47.020 He's a podcaster.

00:18:48.220 His name is Mark Meinke.

00:18:49.620 He's from Alberta.

00:18:50.920 And he testified at parliamentary hearings about this very issue.

00:18:56.960 But he said this is so near and dear to his heart because he was experiencing a very acute PTSD episode not all that long ago.

00:19:07.040 And he told me about it while we were being, like, while we were in an interview.

00:19:11.880 So I don't think I'm speaking out of turn when I say this.

00:19:15.600 But he said it was just a momentary thing.

00:19:19.520 And he came to his senses right after.

00:19:23.060 And he was so happy that he didn't succeed.

00:19:25.600 And I think all of us know somebody in our lives who has tried to harm themselves.

00:19:31.620 And they have no regret, zero regret about surviving that attempt.

00:19:38.800 And I think we have to give people the opportunity to survive whatever they're going through instead of giving them a quick, easy, convenient way out for the people who are paid to help them.

00:19:53.780 Well, Sheila, it was a great piece, a great interview with Laura Ingram.

00:19:57.980 And, I mean, to bring it back full circle, I don't know what Simons was thinking.

00:20:01.660 Look, I don't wish that company nor its employees any ill will.

00:20:06.300 But I think they're going to suffer from buyer's remorse about this.

00:20:09.160 I would like to think that the vast majority of reasonable-minded Canadians aren't down with an ad campaign urging one to take their own life.

00:20:19.960 Maybe I'm wrong about that.

00:20:21.340 Last word goes to you, my friend.

00:20:23.300 Simons should have euthanized that ad campaign. 1.00

00:20:26.020 And I hope the CEO just euthanized his career.

00:20:28.420 If people want to sign my petition calling on the federal government to rethink their extreme pro-death radicalism, please go to HelpNotHomicide.com.

00:20:40.660 Fantastic.

00:20:41.540 And that is HelpNotHomicide.com.

00:20:44.220 Sheila, thank you so much, my friend.

00:20:45.760 You have a wonderful weekend.

00:20:48.540 I will.

00:20:49.000 You too, David.

00:20:49.660 Thank you.

00:20:50.860 And that was Sheila Gunn-Reed somewhere in the Alberta northern hinterland.

00:20:56.200 Keep it here, folks.

00:20:57.060 More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.

00:21:12.340 On January 29, a peaceful protest came to Ottawa to demonstrate against the mandate and the overreach of the government in the life of Canadians.

00:21:22.080 On February 14, Justin Trudeau had decided to invoke the never-before-used Emergencies Act, granting the RCMP special power to shut down the protests by force.

00:21:35.280 Candice Thoreau was present during the dismantling of the convoy, and she was trampled by the hordes of the mounted police unit.

00:21:43.220 Candice Thoreau, the special investigation unit, have been mandated to investigate occurrence across Ontario involving all municipal, regional, and provincial police officers.

00:22:06.980 Since many people have been injured, as Candice Thoreau, they have opened a file for Candice Thoreau's injuries.

00:22:14.940 At the beginning of last April, we heard that the SIU had dropped the investigation because the injury was not enough.

00:22:23.100 Candice Thoreau, the first-generation, the first-generation woman who was holding the line at the first place, got hit by the horse of the mounti police and had been injured.

00:22:40.860 And I came here today to learn about her story, how she felt at this moment and what she has to say to us about it.

00:22:51.960 Have a look.

00:22:53.100 I'm Candice Thero from Tandenanga Mohawk Territory.

00:22:57.840 It's about two hours, two and a half hours southwest of here.

00:23:01.860 Alexa Lavoie for Ruben News and I'm in front of where the Public Order Emergency Commission is holding after more than a month and almost a half of every single day.

00:23:18.180 Different witnesses who gave testimony about the invocation of the Emergencies Act on the 14th of February 2022 for dismantling a peaceful protest in Ottawa.

00:23:31.200 I'm with, you will remember Candice Thero.

00:23:36.620 The investigation on Candice, on the SIU, have been dropped because they say that the injury of Candice was not enough severe to continue the investigation.

00:23:50.360 So I'm here with her to not only give you an update, but also to know a little bit more about her situation.

00:23:59.480 Hi, how are you?

00:24:00.620 I'm alive in here.

00:24:03.340 So since we saw the first time you just been trampled by a horse and now you're here alive in one piece.

00:24:14.220 Can you explain?

00:24:15.260 Broken in one piece.

00:24:16.740 So can you explain what happened with the SIU?

00:24:20.720 The SIU, they did send me a letter stating that, yes, they can say I was hurt, but will be no more further investigation because I wasn't hurt enough.

00:24:36.260 We will show some pictures of your bruise that you had that day and we want to know a little bit, how did you feel when you received that letter saying that they would just drop the investigation?

00:24:50.820 At that point in time when I was floored, very floored, like they had just swept it under the rug, so to speak.

00:25:01.560 As all of Canada worldwide seen, yes, I did get trampled by a horse and for them to say that I wasn't hurt is off the wall.

00:25:16.200 And we know how you feel because I saw you afterwards, you just went out of the hospital, you were in pain, you were injured and I saw you.

00:25:28.520 And I am still in pain and injured and everything isn't set right, still.

00:25:37.160 Yeah, sorry about that, Ms. Sarah, but your injuries weren't quite enough to garner further attention by the Special Investigations Unit.

00:25:46.280 Oh, and you won't be needed to testify at the Emergencies Act inquiry either.

00:25:51.160 They were much too busy interviewing Ottawa snowflakes who were triggered by horns blaring and diesel fumes.

00:25:59.500 Unbelievable.

00:26:01.080 And joining me now for more on this truly egregious situation is our Montreal-based reporter, and that would be Alexa Lavoie.

00:26:09.680 Bonjour, Alexa.

00:26:11.440 Bonjour.

00:26:12.480 Now, Alexa, let me get this straight.

00:26:15.040 Being trampled on by a horse does not warrant any further investigation.

00:26:22.440 So what is the benchmark here?

00:26:25.560 Broken bones, a heart attack, death?

00:26:29.300 Alexa, surely the issue here is the use of the mounted unit galloping into a crowd of peaceful protesters, not the extent of one's injury.

00:26:40.360 So why is that part of the story not being addressed?

00:26:45.880 Yeah, that was actually really outraged.

00:26:48.700 And by the way, sorry, everybody, I'm on the field and I'm actually covering another story.

00:26:53.500 It's why I look like that.

00:26:54.920 And it's, I don't know how minus it is in Quebec, but it's really cold.

00:26:59.480 But yeah, for Candace, I was really shocked when I heard that the police just, it's the SIU,

00:27:06.500 with the special investigation, that they're supposed to be the one to investigate in municipal, regional, and police units.

00:27:15.420 And when I heard that they just dropped the case just because they say the injury was not enough severe,

00:27:21.600 but at the end of the day, she was trampled.

00:27:24.820 This deserves like a full investigation on how a police have used a horse against a citizen.

00:27:34.360 This is enough to actually open the file and continue the investigation on it.

00:27:40.260 But I'm happy that when she said to me that she's going to go further with legal action and say like,

00:27:47.260 I'm not going to let that down, I still suffer from my injury and I don't want,

00:27:54.620 and it's why she was a little bit like stressed to give me an interview because she wanted to be sure that what she say was correctly said

00:28:04.620 because she didn't want it to say something that she should not say.

00:28:08.900 So, but I am happy that she take like legal action and we will follow the case afterwards like to see what's going on with Candace. 1.00

00:28:21.900 Oh, 100%, Alex.

00:28:23.020 I think there is indeed grounds for a civil lawsuit here.

00:28:26.920 And even the way this story was initially played out, it was an absolute preposterous lie.

00:28:32.640 Do you remember the police were saying words to the effect that a bicycle was thrown at the mounted unit

00:28:38.800 or at a horse, what bicycle, where?

00:28:40.940 There's no evidence of this.

00:28:42.240 There's no video footage of this.

00:28:44.360 It seems to me, I'm sorry that the cops are lying about this.

00:28:47.840 Why did they go down this route in the first place, Alexa?

00:28:51.720 Well, I think they didn't want it to alert the population and they wanted to show like,

00:28:56.700 how great they were doing to dismantle like the occupation.

00:29:03.700 So I think it's what they wanted to do.

00:29:06.960 They really wanted to say, oh, no, nobody had been injured and someone threw a bicycle.

00:29:13.520 Who have a bicycle in the snow at minus, I don't know.

00:29:17.080 Like, I don't know.

00:29:18.460 I don't like drive a bicycle at this time of the year because it was freezing and it was like snowing.

00:29:25.300 Like, so for me, it's just like, it was just lie on lie.

00:29:29.580 And it was just like a propaganda of disinformation and misinformation that was coming from everywhere.

00:29:36.960 And I'm sorry, we saw it.

00:29:39.560 And I was there when the horse went into the crowd.

00:29:43.420 I was there.

00:29:43.900 I didn't see Candice.

00:29:44.960 But I was there when I saw the horse, like just jumping straight.

00:29:49.340 And I actually run away because I was like, oh, my God, this horse, if the horse is getting panic, it's going to just like trample everybody.

00:29:57.960 Yeah.

00:29:58.920 And Alexa, you make an excellent point about the disinformation and misinformation.

00:30:04.540 This is what the authorities, this is what the government, this is what law enforcement was claiming the trucker freedom convoy was all about.

00:30:13.040 But the reverse is true.

00:30:14.320 It's the people in charge.

00:30:16.260 It is the law enforcement agencies.

00:30:18.580 They are responsible for the misinformation and disinformation.

00:30:23.340 And by the way, we have to point out, this was the mounted unit of the Toronto Police Service, I do believe.

00:30:30.020 And the last time I saw those cats in action, they were shutting down Adamson's barbecue restaurant because, God forbid, Alexa, an illegal barbecue joint during COVID when 400 meters away, Costco is serving food at its food service facility.

00:30:51.920 I'm just wondering, is this mounted unit ever actually used against the bad guys?

00:30:57.860 I don't think that, I think this tactic has been only used when you have like really a terrorist attack or something like that, not on like peaceful citizens.

00:31:11.620 And I didn't see like using like horses on a population before, I would say in my lifetime.

00:31:19.220 I think that is really, really one of the most horrible things to do, not only for the citizens, but I'm just putting myself in the position of the horse.

00:31:32.800 How panicking it should be, like just like being like forced to just like jump into a crowd.

00:31:39.680 Like, this is like, I always say like suffering, like they are suffering like the horse too.

00:31:50.860 Like in both sides, like people were suffering.

00:31:53.940 And I'm just thinking like, which kind of police we have to use this kind of intervention?

00:32:02.060 Like, like they had like some children and women in the crowd that had like maybe the chance to be hurt.

00:32:12.700 And by the way, Candice is lucky she's not injured much more than that because she had probably the chance to be dead right now,

00:32:21.240 to be really like trampled, like hardened and that.

00:32:24.400 So the investigation should be like, not like how, how severe is the, the injury, but more like maybe she, she, she will be dead right now,

00:32:36.560 but she was enough lucky to not be.

00:32:39.440 And especially because they didn't help her afterwards.

00:32:42.900 She, she told me like during my first interview that people actually bring her out of the crowd and bring her into the hospital,

00:32:52.080 but not the police officer that just trampled her.

00:32:55.620 And she was like on the snow by herself without being able to walk because her walker was probably like,

00:33:02.780 I don't, I don't know, destroyed by the horse at that time.

00:33:07.160 Unbelievable, Alexa.

00:33:08.540 And, and there's another element here that this is all about the SIU dropping its investigation.

00:33:13.860 There's not enough carnage here, evidently.

00:33:16.040 Um, but when it comes to the emergencies act inquiry, here's my question.

00:33:21.960 Why isn't miss, why wasn't miss zero called to testify? 1.00

00:33:25.880 Why weren't you, my friend called to testify?

00:33:29.260 You got shot point blank with some kind of canister and ingested, uh, pepper spray.

00:33:35.440 Uh, these were real injuries, not make believe injuries,

00:33:39.260 like those citizens of Ottawa that complained about noise or complained about diesel fumes.

00:33:44.220 Can you give an explanation, Alexa, why you and miss zero weren't witnesses to talk about,

00:33:52.720 Oh, I don't know.

00:33:53.960 Let's call it for what it is.

00:33:55.380 Police brutality.

00:33:57.640 But probably because we will like just prove that they are wrong when they say that nobody

00:34:03.440 had been injured or that, uh, the police did a great, their job.

00:34:09.140 And I will say something like what I saw Justin Trudeau during this testimony, like doing some

00:34:15.440 speculation on maybe a grandmother will have been like run over by a truck or like a police officer 0.86

00:34:22.420 will be dead right now or killed. 0.81

00:34:25.080 And I was like, Oh, in, in the audience, you have like the woman that had been trampled by your police 0.90

00:34:30.400 because you did, um, invoke the emergency side.

00:34:34.180 And I get shot in the leg and it seems like nobody cares.

00:34:38.600 I said, I have the impression that this whole world, it's upside down.

00:34:45.060 Now the good is the bad and the bad is the good.

00:34:48.660 You know what?

00:34:49.380 I feel that way every day.

00:34:52.040 And, you know, we should bring up, we discussed this point before Alexa, but the following day,

00:34:57.860 we went to the, uh, press conference at the Ottawa police service, uh, it was acting chief Steve Bell

00:35:04.960 that was conducting it.

00:35:06.200 And I was right there with you.

00:35:07.720 And I asked the question, how is the investigation into the shooting of Alexa Lavoie going on?

00:35:14.540 And he said he was unaware of the incident, which indicates two things.

00:35:19.360 He is ignorant because this was getting worldwide media attention.

00:35:24.360 I mean, for goodness sakes, you had just been interviewed an hour earlier by Russian television, 0.98

00:35:29.100 or he was lying through his teeth.

00:35:32.300 He's well aware that you're shot.

00:35:33.920 That's a serious thing.

00:35:35.340 An officer discharging a firearm, A, and B, the projectile hitting a person.

00:35:41.520 Um, so I guess the big picture question, Alexa, is that when this, uh, inquiry report is tabled

00:35:50.120 by February 20th, is it going to be a fair report or as they say in Vegas, is the fix in?

00:35:59.800 I think, um, I don't know because it's really hard to say, uh, right now what we can see so far,

00:36:07.240 nothing makes sense and nothing is fair.

00:36:10.400 So we saw a lot of lies, but we saw a lot of contradiction, a lot of chaos and lots of, like,

00:36:19.560 people were telling, like, the opposite thing.

00:36:22.380 So who they will believe in all this story?

00:36:25.400 Because some in the minister was saying different version of what really happened

00:36:32.380 and what I've been really saying.

00:36:33.940 So who believe being who?

00:36:37.320 And so I'm, I'm actually thinking that at the end of the, all this,

00:36:41.700 they will say that Mr. Trudeau did the right thing.

00:36:44.160 And we all, everybody know that he didn't.

00:36:47.720 And it was, like, impulsive.

00:36:49.760 And it was, like, using, um, power that he probably don't deserve.

00:36:55.120 Yeah.

00:36:55.980 Well, Alexa, great interview, great report.

00:36:59.140 Um, I always look for the silver lining.

00:37:01.180 I think in this case it is, uh, thank goodness that horse didn't trample, uh, Miss Cerro on the head.

00:37:10.060 Uh, otherwise, uh, she might not be with us. 0.57

00:37:12.820 And likewise, had that canister hit you in the head as opposed to your thigh,

00:37:17.340 maybe we'd be, we'd be talking about you in the past tense as well.

00:37:21.160 But both injuries, both attacks were completely unnecessary, much like the invocation of the Emergencies Act itself.

00:37:30.260 Uh, let's hope we never see that kind of brutality again.

00:37:33.540 Thank you so much, Alexa.

00:37:35.080 And you have a good weekend, my friend.

00:37:37.220 Yeah, I just had something because you would probably have so much people writing to you about the man with the brown jacket.

00:37:42.940 The man with the brown jacket, I don't know if he was really trampled, really injured, but I know that he doesn't,

00:37:50.260 it seems that he doesn't want to be identified because it's not the first time we try to approach and ask for more information about him.

00:37:57.760 Maybe he was there and he didn't want it to be recognized and be mixed with the convoy for security of job or I don't know.

00:38:05.440 But if someone knows something about the brown jacket man who was the second person to be trampled,

00:38:14.360 please reach out to Ruben News and share it widely.

00:38:18.940 Yeah, let's hope we find out what his story is.

00:38:21.920 But, you know, Alexa, given the, uh, this day and age we're in, in our dark dominion under Justin Trudeau,

00:38:28.620 maybe the man in the brown jacket is simply scared to come forward, doesn't want his bank accounts frozen,

00:38:34.480 doesn't want to be bugged, uh, which is what has been happening in the aftermath of the Freedom Convoy protest.

00:38:42.560 Sometimes I really don't recognize this country anymore under these Justin Trudeau liberals.

00:38:48.060 But again, like I said, Alexa, uh, you have a happy and safe weekend.

00:38:53.620 You too.

00:38:54.760 Okay. Take care, Alexa.

00:38:56.780 And that was Alexa Lavoie somewhere in the area of Montreal. 0.65

00:39:01.860 Keep it here, folks.

00:39:02.800 We are going to come back to you with Rebel Roundup right after this.

00:39:16.620 Even Menzies for Rebel News here in Toronto.

00:39:19.700 And, folks, I'm at the Pan Pacific Hotel with ace cameraman Lincoln Jay.

00:39:24.040 We were tipped off that the Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, is going to show up for some sort of a schmooze fest here.

00:39:31.260 Hopefully he's not going to give away hundreds of millions of dollars of Canadian money, Canadian taxpayer money, that is, to some foreign land.

00:39:38.400 But I digress.

00:39:39.720 In any event, we want to ask Justin Trudeau a couple of questions.

00:39:44.500 I think the biggest question is this.

00:39:47.720 Why did he freeze the bank accounts of peaceful protesters at the Freedom Convoy last winter,

00:39:55.320 but he can't be bothered to take action against Chinese communists subverting our democracy? 0.52

00:40:03.560 You may recall the government of China interfered in the 2019 election, supporting 11 Liberal candidates that year.

00:40:12.900 And Trudeau claims he was never briefed on this, even though CESA says he was.

00:40:18.200 How about another couple of questions?

00:40:20.040 I'd like to know what his reaction was to Justice Rouleau having Brandon Miller escorted by security out of the Emergencies Act inquiry earlier today.

00:40:32.360 And, of course, was that really a Liberal operative that was waving a Nazi flag on the initial day of the Freedom Convoy protest?

00:40:42.120 Well, there's a hot potato issue for the little potato, as they call him in China.

00:40:47.840 How about this? Can we trust Commissioner Rouleau to call a fair game when it comes to the Emergencies Act inquiry?

00:40:56.120 So many questions.

00:40:58.140 But, as you know, we are persona non grata.

00:41:00.540 We've seen the mainstream media be warmly welcomed into the venue.

00:41:05.380 But Lincoln and I are going to go to the hotel, wait for the convoy to come.

00:41:11.140 He's always late to these events.

00:41:13.420 And then we're going to try to scrum him.

00:41:15.380 Hopefully, we won't have a repeat of what happened to Lincoln and I last December.

00:41:22.460 You remember that?

00:41:23.700 Check it out.

00:41:24.380 Hey, I can...

00:41:34.920 Hey, this is a thought.

00:41:37.040 I'm on a side...

00:41:38.380 What is this?

00:41:39.680 I'm on a sidewalk.

00:41:44.460 I'm on a sidewalk.

00:41:45.880 What is this?

00:41:47.040 You cannot push me.

00:41:48.560 Not rushing over.

00:41:49.260 Hey.

00:41:50.840 Hey.

00:41:51.240 Are you kidding?

00:41:56.060 Are you kidding?

00:41:57.140 Let's go of me.

00:41:58.980 What is this?

00:42:01.360 You can't...

00:42:02.380 Am I under arrest?

00:42:03.940 Am I under arrest?

00:42:06.220 Am I under arrest?

00:42:07.920 Because otherwise you have no right.

00:42:09.600 I'm under arrest.

00:42:15.760 I'm under arrest.

00:42:16.560 Come on.

00:42:17.180 Huh?

00:42:19.640 I'm in for you now.

00:42:21.220 I'm in for you now.

00:42:24.300 Huh?

00:42:27.800 Wow.

00:42:29.320 Yeah, so not only did they beat me up, not only did they break my watch, but I suspect they gave me COVID.

00:42:36.960 It was just a couple of days later I came down with COVID after being a pitcher of health for more than two and a half years.

00:42:44.780 And it was revealed in the media that half of Justin Trudeau's security detail were COVID positive, despicable.

00:42:54.620 But that's the police state we're in, folks.

00:42:57.720 The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are now the Royal Canadian Mounted Henchmen, and they do Justin Trudeau's dirty work.

00:43:04.440 In any event, we're going to mosey on over to the main entrance and see if this Prime Minister will at least attempt to answer a couple of our questions.

00:43:15.380 Mr. Trudeau, why did you freeze the bank accounts of innocent Canadians, and you're turning a blind eye to the subversion by the Chinese government? 0.94

00:43:40.640 Why are you following us?

00:43:50.480 To get into the darkness?

00:43:54.060 What's that?

00:43:55.520 Yeah, I'm leaving.

00:43:56.680 Okay, then leave.

00:43:57.800 Yeah, I don't even know who you are.

00:44:00.760 What is that little badge on you there?

00:44:03.500 You've been asked to leave.

00:44:04.300 Well, folks, we're getting nowhere here.

00:44:08.600 Once again, Justin Trudeau's Royal Canadian henchmen do not believe in a free press.

00:44:18.260 Well, folks, maybe that last line I uttered isn't completely true.

00:44:22.280 It's not that Trudeau and his cronies don't believe in a free press.

00:44:26.300 It's just that their definition of a free press involves journalists who are government funded, you know, so that they know their role and they don't ask any insensitive or impolite questions.

00:44:39.960 Yep, welcome to the Dominion of Canada in 2022, in which the media watchdogs have become Trudeau's lapdogs.

00:44:49.040 And if you dare show up to a Trudeau event as an independent journalist, well, expect Trudeau's thugs to get handsy with you. 0.82

00:44:58.800 What a disgrace.

00:45:00.220 In any event, you had plenty to say about this latest affront to freedom of the press, the independent press, that is.

00:45:08.100 Red May Belief writes,

00:45:10.800 Ever since that happened to you, David, with Trudeau's thugs, I've wanted to leave this country. 0.69

00:45:16.320 I actually hate Canada now. 1.00

00:45:18.540 Trudeau has turned it into a shite hole and I don't want to be here paying taxes that go into supporting him and his effing goons. 0.99

00:45:28.840 Well, Red May Belief, I appreciate your kind words, but let's not give up on our great dominion right now. 0.99

00:45:35.380 Not quite yet.

00:45:36.200 Undeniably, this country is not the same place it was just seven years ago.

00:45:42.360 But in the months ahead, let's pray for a regime change.

00:45:45.600 Let's hope we can indeed make Canada great again.

00:45:51.180 Tom in back writes,

00:45:52.900 The men's way needs to be wearing his baseball cleats when he goes to interview Justin Trudeau, when FJT's detail back him up against the wall, get him with the spikes.

00:46:04.580 Well, actually, Tom, unlike Trudeau's security detail, I really don't want to hurt anybody.

00:46:10.060 I just want to do my job.

00:46:11.300 But last year, I did buy a new set of steel-toed boots to prevent my toes from being stepped on.

00:46:18.860 That's one of the tactics his henchmen use.

00:46:21.400 They purposely stand on your feet.

00:46:23.840 The reason is that this act of violence is not typically caught on camera.

00:46:28.400 And if it is captured on camera, well, they say it was an accident. 1.00

00:46:32.180 What horrible mounties these jerks are. 1.00

00:46:37.100 Clint S.B. writes, 1.00

00:46:38.960 Only the paid propaganda arm of the government can have access.

00:46:44.060 Bingo, Clint.

00:46:45.140 What we are seeing now in Canada with the legacy media being funded by the Trudeau liberals,

00:46:51.420 it is something that is both unethical and immoral.

00:46:54.400 How can media outlets have the chutzpah to claim they are impartial

00:46:59.740 when the government itself is funding these outlets to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars per year

00:47:06.140 and, of course, in the case of the CBC, more than a billion dollars annually?

00:47:11.700 What a joke.

00:47:13.580 Sir Sunrise writes,

00:47:15.960 The dictator has more guards around him than Biden has.

00:47:19.500 We need to start a criminal tribunal for Trudeau, ASAP.

00:47:23.180 Well, you know, I would love to see such a tribunal,

00:47:27.980 but given the climate of our country right now in terms of the political arm and the bureaucracy,

00:47:34.380 what are the odds that Justin Trudeau would skate once again?

00:47:39.000 Unbelievable.

00:47:40.780 And one John Henry writes,

00:47:44.020 David, the answer is quite obvious.

00:47:46.240 The PM is incompetent and unqualified to run a small third world country like Canada.

00:47:52.160 You know, that's a good point, Mr. Henry.

00:47:54.480 I never thought of that angle.

00:47:56.920 The fact that Justin needs the help of the Beijing Mandarins to run a proper and efficient dictatorship. 0.97

00:48:03.960 It now makes more sense than ever that before he became prime minister in 2015,

00:48:10.140 that Justin Trudeau publicly proclaimed his admiration for the dictatorship in China.

00:48:17.360 You cannot make this stuff up, folks.

00:48:20.940 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup.

00:48:23.660 Thanks so much for joining us.

00:48:25.020 Have yourselves a fantastic weekend.

00:48:27.800 See you next weekend.

00:48:28.700 Hey, folks, never forget,

00:48:30.560 without risk, there can be no glory.

00:48:32.920 Good night.

00:48:33.380 Good night.

00:49:03.700 Good night.

00:49:04.220 Good night.
