Rebel News Podcast - DAVID MENZIES ｜ Trudeau's thought police push 'hurt feelings law' for the political class

00:00:00.000 tonight justin trudeau's rcmp commissioner wants a new law on the books prohibiting nasty

00:00:21.600 messaging to politicians it's wednesday may 15th 2024 i'm david menzies and this is the ezra

00:00:31.920 event show shame on you you censorious bug

00:00:38.860 well folks this just in regarding the one law for me one law for the file a heaping helping of 0.60

00:00:54.640 hypocrisy that really took off during the scamdemic mike to him justin trudeau's hand-picked

00:01:01.860 rcmp commissioner says he wants the government to look at drafting a new law that would make it

00:01:09.620 easier for police to pursue charges against people who offend elected officials that's right

00:01:20.160 commissioner duham wants a brand new whiz-bang hurt feelings law oh and not for all of us who make up

00:01:27.480 the great unwashed masses mind you no no the hurt feelings law is solely for those in the political

00:01:34.320 class you know these beautiful people and their precious feelings well they're special you see and

00:01:41.200 must be protected at all costs on the flip side it is your commentary that must be sanitized for

00:01:48.840 their protection or else my god in heaven with all the crime that is surging across our great dominion

00:01:57.600 these days and i mean real bonafide violent crime from carjackings to homicide commissioner duham

00:02:05.460 is more concerned about members of the political elite suffering from hurt feelings really no wonder

00:02:14.900 this mountie is a trudeau appointee and isn't this a chicken and egg quandary duham says he wants the

00:02:24.240 government to look at drafting new laws could it be that it is the trudeau liberals who cooked up this

00:02:31.160 idea and they are employing duham as their bought and paid for stooge you know to make it seem as though

00:02:38.840 there is a separation of state and law enforcement whatever the case here's the skinny the rcmp alleged

00:02:47.460 that they're seeing an increase in the utterance of nasty remarks and social media postings directed at

00:02:55.140 our privileged politicians good golly i wonder why so many canadians are in such a sour mood these days

00:03:03.780 could it be gas at a buck 70 a liter or that a basket full of groceries can cost well north of a

00:03:11.200 hundred bucks or how about those ominous interest rates meaning foreclosure is now a clear and present

00:03:18.080 danger for many homeowners or what about those people literally dying as they wait for life-saving

00:03:25.820 surgery or how about trudeau turning down countries such as germany japan greece and several others

00:03:33.580 that are begging to purchase our liquefied natural gas only to have trudeau refuse them saying well

00:03:39.880 you know there's no business case yeah why would we want the canadian treasury being enriched to the

00:03:46.600 tune of oh i don't know some two trillion dollars the budget will balance itself after all oh and by the

00:03:53.440 way if you really don't like the way the trudeau liberals are destroying our nation and you're on the

00:03:59.440 verge of losing your livelihood and maybe your house hey no problem the liberals have made it easy

00:04:06.640 peasy to check out anytime thanks to medical assistance and dying aka maid ah but this maid doesn't 1.00

00:04:14.200 clean up your room rather she gives you the long needle and the really great thing about maid as opposed 1.00

00:04:21.060 to say oh i don't know getting hip replacement surgery is that there's no wait time so if you're not

00:04:27.700 happy with the liberals and you're feeling you know down in the dumps feel free to exit stage left as in

00:04:34.920 permanently in the meantime let's get down to the real issues of substance for this government

00:04:41.420 it's not trite stuff like the economy or the health care crisis or illegal aliens or surging crime

00:04:50.180 no the really really big issue is politicians having their feelings hurt by nasty words so thank

00:04:59.040 goodness we have the mounties to serve and protect and for that matter to reinvent themselves as the

00:05:05.740 thought police don't you find it perversely ironic that trudeau hates guns well guns owned by law

00:05:14.020 abiding hunters and sport shooters that is not so much illegal handguns owned by gangbangers

00:05:20.120 who routinely get out of out of jail on bail thanks to our catch and release justice system

00:05:26.420 and he certainly does not hate guns when it comes to the federal law enforcement division

00:05:32.260 oh no their guns guns come in quite handy when it comes to intimidating the populace especially

00:05:39.940 when people take to the streets to protest the erosion of their freedoms but back to commissioner

00:05:47.100 to him he frets that the problem with people making cruel comments to politicians is that such behavior

00:05:57.120 does not meet the criminal code threshold for laying a charge of uttering threats well of course the 0.98

00:06:05.220 threshold isn't meant harsh language is not the same as uttering a death threat oh damn that freedom of 0.83

00:06:15.500 speech thingy yay but here's where it gets a wee bit scary rcmp commissioner do right or i mean do hem 0.89

00:06:23.480 rhetorically asks quote are there other tools that we can use is there anything else that we could add to

00:06:32.240 the criminal code that can address the situation end quote translation trudeau and his minions just can't

00:06:41.260 wait for the thought crime legislation aka bill c63 to be enacted into law that's all about hurt feelings

00:06:50.300 too so much so that an anonymous person can file a complaint against you if they believe you stated

00:06:57.260 something hateful even several years ago the complaint can receive an award of two twenty thousand

00:07:03.740 dollars with the government receiving a fifty thousand dollars service fee oh take that ticket

00:07:11.720 master oh and by the way if the government thinks you might say something hurtful in the future

00:07:18.700 they can place you in indefinite house arrest this bill is enacted into law and it survives the

00:07:26.700 inevitable supreme court challenge free speech will be vaporized in canada we will have a nation that

00:07:35.240 resembles a witch's brew of 1984 minority report and the star chamber but for censorious thugs like 0.55

00:07:45.180 duham the tyranny of bill c63 is clearly not enough there must be other new rules regarding free speech

00:07:52.960 new laws that are required to remedy a problem that does not exist oh and when duham uses the term

00:08:03.140 other tools what is he referring to exactly would one of those other tools be that big bazooka in the

00:08:11.820 government toolbox known as the emergencies act you know i bet duham would love to have the emergencies act

00:08:21.420 permanently in place that would make things go so much easier for the mounties wouldn't it you know

00:08:27.460 without all having to deal with all that due process stuff gumming up the works so citizen beware if you

00:08:34.500 dare raise that f trudeau flag in the not too distant future you might just get fined or criminally charged or

00:08:43.400 put in solitary or have your bank account frozen oh i bet that non-dynamic duo of trudeau and duham

00:08:51.340 would love that kind of power here's the thing i'm pretty much a free speech absolutist but there

00:08:58.100 is of course a line in the proverbial sand and that line is this if you advocate for the harm or death of

00:09:05.540 an individual or a recognizable group of individuals that is criminal and on this front hey mr duham

00:09:13.480 visit any major canadian city on any given weekend and check out the calls for the genocide of the

00:09:21.940 jewish people by the pro-hamas hooligans indeed from intifada and from the river to the sea 0.96

00:09:29.500 to go back to europe members of this new age hitler youth movement are blatantly breaking hate speech 0.86

00:09:38.480 laws and yet nothing is being done heck to him in march they were even displaying signs outside a

00:09:46.360 liberal party of canada fundraiser condemning your boss as genocide justin 0.58

00:09:52.840 i guess these thugs are equal opportunity haters yeah they hate the jew who just owns the local deli or

00:10:09.400 runs a bookstore and they even hate the prime minister himself who clearly sides with team 0.82

00:10:15.620 hamas but maybe not enough i suppose and your response to all this hatred commissioner duham

00:10:22.980 folks can the hypocrisy of our ruling class be any more blatant can the two-tier policing be any more

00:10:35.740 self-evident but genocide schmemicide duham is seemingly obsessed about politicians having their

00:10:44.300 feelings hurt by harsh language and don't get me wrong if a constituent utters an actual death

00:10:50.520 threat that does cross the line and there are already provisions in the criminal code to address

00:10:57.380 such discourse in the here and now but if a snowflake politician is triggered by salty language

00:11:04.300 sorry that politician is in the wrong business in politics you need godzilla thick skin 0.99

00:11:10.980 twas ever thus yet we seem to have a new crop of woke weakling wimps in office 0.69

00:11:17.460 and commissioner duham wants to charge to their rescue 0.70

00:11:22.240 you know i wonder who's really pulling the strings of this puppet in a red tunic

00:11:31.160 could it be our deputy p.m fraulein freeland herself we know how this former journalist reacts to 1.00

00:11:39.000 independent media types if they dare ask an impolite question and yes i speak from experience

00:11:46.420 in case commissioner duham missed it check out what happened to me outside the richmond hill center

00:11:53.440 for the performing arts back in january by the way this venue was hosting a fourth anniversary vigil

00:12:01.580 for the victims of ukrainian international airlines flight ps752 in which 176 died including 55

00:12:11.940 canadian citizens and 30 permanent residents it was shot down by the islamic revolutionary guard corps

00:12:20.160 and this was an event rebel news was invited to cover oh but never mind because fraulein freeland

00:12:28.840 only has time for her state-sponsored train seals in the lamestream media 1.00

00:12:34.380 how come the irgc is not a terrorist group why is your government supporting islamic national media

00:12:42.560 what you've been missing what are you doing

00:12:45.820 you're under arrest for assault

00:12:47.700 why are you pushing you're under arrest for assault

00:12:50.820 you're under arrest for assault

00:12:52.840 you pushed into me i was just scrubbing i've got my credentials here and you just bump into me

00:13:03.920 so police you're under arrest what is your name in your bag

00:13:07.560 the question arises was officer uncle fester operating on his own volition that day

00:13:13.420 or did freeland and her assistant order this savage skinhead to get handsy 1.00

00:13:21.100 well we don't know yet but we will know in the future me thinks

00:13:24.800 we've served the rcmp with a one million dollar lawsuit for repeatedly violating our charter rights

00:13:32.080 yes repeatedly remember what transpired again to me in december of 2021

00:13:39.280 when i was standing on a public sidewalk hoping to scrum trudeau about his most recent hypocrisy

00:13:46.260 namely he was telling canadians back then not to celebrate christmas

00:13:50.680 that not to get together with family members and friends

00:13:55.460 that was a little too dangerous what with that covid 19 being a thing

00:14:00.420 so we need to isolate for the greater good yada yada yada

00:14:04.480 and yet here was trudeau that night staging a seventeen hundred dollar a plate fundraiser

00:14:11.320 at the brickworks restaurant in which donors were packed in like sardines

00:14:16.320 but i never got to ask trudeau a question because

00:14:20.640 well because trudeau's praetorian guard protected the pm that night

00:14:25.960 oh not from any physical harm from me mind you

00:14:28.660 but from hearing maybe an impolite question

00:14:31.720 here check it out

00:14:32.840 what are you doing get it get off me

00:14:35.560 hey i can

00:14:37.080 hey this is assault

00:14:39.760 i'm on a side

00:14:41.300 what is this

00:14:42.300 i'm on a sidewalk

00:14:44.160 what is this

00:14:49.840 you cannot touch me

00:14:51.540 no rushing or working

00:14:52.680 hey

00:14:54.500 are you kidding

00:14:58.600 are you kidding

00:14:59.800 can it possibly get any worse than that

00:15:11.320 um actually and unfortunately it can get worse and it did get worse

00:15:16.460 because just a few months after my december assault

00:15:20.260 my colleague alexa lavois was shot yes shot by a mountie

00:15:26.420 as law enforcement brutally shut down the freedom convoy in ottawa

00:15:31.820 come on

00:15:32.540 come on

00:15:32.820 come on

00:15:32.860 come on

00:15:34.540 you just tried to throw this

00:15:35.540 you just tried to throw this

00:15:37.280 you just tried to throw this

00:15:37.320 oh

00:15:37.540 oh

00:15:39.540 oh

00:15:40.540 oh

00:15:41.540 oh

00:15:42.540 oh

00:15:43.540 oh

00:15:44.540 oh

00:15:45.540 there you go

00:15:46.740 you all right 1.00

00:15:47.480 got shot 0.91

00:15:48.100 take care

00:15:51.080 bring her out 1.00

00:15:51.700 bring her out 1.00

00:15:52.240 come on

00:15:52.660 oh my god

00:15:54.000 despicable

00:15:58.540 there are other examples of mounties acting badly but i think you get the drift

00:16:04.320 which is to say the rcmp has already lost the plot

00:16:08.360 and commissioners like duham and the incompetent diversity hire that he replaced

00:16:14.460 brenda lucky

00:16:15.300 they have completely vandalized the once stellar image of the rcmp

00:16:22.280 indeed we have come a long long way from the days of nelson eddy and jeannette mcdonald

00:16:28.360 crooning to one another in the great white north

00:16:31.460 when i'm calling you

00:16:34.820 yeah i get it in retrospect those movies are now cheesier than a bucket full of bulgarian feta

00:16:50.060 but at least nelson eddy wasn't shooting jeannette mcdonald in the thigh with a tear gas canister 0.98

00:16:56.180 indeed in terms of the rcmp being realistically depicted in pop culture

00:17:02.080 i think this example is more apropos

00:17:06.080 you know the rcmp brass back in the 80s were furious over jacques rogeot

00:17:26.020 portrayal of a mountie so much so that rogeot was actually prevented from using his mountie gimmick

00:17:33.540 whenever he wrestled in canada yeah the rcmp bigwigs hated the idea of a mountie using fear

00:17:41.460 and intimidation tactics and using a weapon in rogeot's case he had a fondness for a cattle prod

00:17:49.280 and cheating and carrying out dirty tricks in other words the rcmp had great difficulty

00:17:55.920 with that concept known as truth in advertising and yeah i'm looking at you again constable uncle

00:18:03.900 fester poor mr rogeot the mountie character was his best shtick ever maybe he should have portrayed

00:18:11.140 the mountie character as a baby face as opposed to a heel waltzing to the squared circle crooning

00:18:18.000 indian love song to miss elizabeth yet the rcmp would have approved of that no doubt little wonder

00:18:26.400 that in 1995 the mountie signed a deal with disney to produce rcmp themed trinkets and trash

00:18:34.700 staff sergeant ken mcclain an rcmp public affairs spokesman at the time stated the following quote

00:18:42.420 we would like to see good quality canadian merchandise with a proper reflection of our

00:18:48.720 uniform and our image end quote folks do you find it a little goofy that the rcmp required

00:18:56.080 an american company best known for mickey mouse to distribute good quality canadian merchandise

00:19:02.680 which was actually made in china oh but never mind and in case you think bad policing is the sole

00:19:12.000 bailiwick of the mounties well that's not true certain members of the toronto police service are

00:19:18.460 acting very badly these days here is a video of me being arrested in march on king street in downtown

00:19:26.120 toronto my charge well obstruct police oh there was obstruction going on that evening all right

00:19:33.940 but it was the police obstructing me

00:19:37.440 what is going on now we just want you to know what's the problem

00:19:54.760 excuse me we're trying to put him behind

00:20:10.040 hey that's my guy that's my guy

00:20:23.560 you'll be under arrest for instructing police there we go

00:20:26.860 hey hey stop that's my wallet you're under arrest for instructing police there we go what is this i've

00:20:33.320 asked you for identification numerous times you failed to identify yourself that's instructing police

00:20:38.000 So there you have it, folks. If you thought that the pre-crimes unit was from the sci-fi movie Minority Report, think again. The Toronto Police obviously has its own pre-crimes unit.

00:20:49.940 You see, they thought that perhaps, maybe, presumably, I was going to ask the pro-Hamas hooligans a question that might further enrage them, and it's easier for the cops to shut down a lone journalist rather than to corral an entire mob.

00:21:09.300 This is what's known now as keeping the peace these days.

00:21:14.940 Alas, the very next month, my cameraman, Efren Monsanto, and I attended the six-month anniversary vigil of the October 7th massacre in Israel.

00:21:25.380 It was staged at Nathan Phillips Square, quite literally Toronto's town square.

00:21:31.580 There were more than 2,000 people there that day to hear Conservative leader Pierre Polyev deliver his remarks.

00:21:38.820 Naturally, even on this somber occasion, the pro-Hamas thug showed up to stage a counter-demonstration.

00:21:48.100 These emboldened reprobates even assaulted Efren and I right in front of the police. 0.75

00:21:54.600 So naturally, an arrest was made, which is to say the police arrested me for trespassing?

00:22:02.640 Oh yes, check it out!

00:22:16.760 Watch your hands, we have your friends, watch your hands, watch your hands.

00:22:21.920 Watch your hands!

00:22:23.220 Don't put your hands on me.

00:22:33.900 Don't put your hands on me.

00:22:37.180 They can chant genocide in the streets and I can't cover that.

00:22:42.440 Obey your oath, officer.

00:22:44.640 Obey your oath.

00:22:47.060 If I'm under arrest, get your hands off.

00:22:49.920 Okay, then I'll put your phone down, put your hands on your back, put your hands on your back.

00:22:55.860 You're under arrest or refuse to leave, okay?

00:22:58.200 We're going to lock you to the wagon, Mr. Manning.

00:23:00.660 Good call on.

00:23:02.040 Efren, are you catching this?

00:23:03.340 Yeah.

00:23:03.720 Once again, you're going to have people from 10 genocide in the streets of our democracy.

00:23:12.220 You're under arrest or refuse to leave, premise this, okay, Mr. Manning.

00:23:15.060 It's a public place.

00:23:17.180 This is literally the public square.

00:23:19.360 This is literally the public square.

00:23:21.360 I've been asking you numerous times.

00:23:22.580 This is what I'm trying to be as back as possible.

00:23:25.780 Right?

00:23:26.180 I'm not the public square, okay?

00:23:27.980 You can have it.

00:23:28.900 They assaulted me and you did nothing.

00:23:30.620 Thank you.

00:23:31.500 They assaulted me and you did nothing.

00:23:33.640 It's a public square.

00:23:34.780 It's a public square.

00:23:36.300 You know, my first day in court regarding this most recent example of police brutality is tomorrow.

00:23:45.160 Stay tuned for further updates.

00:23:46.760 And meanwhile, if you would like to help me out with my legal fees, please go to standwithdavid.com and kindly make a donation.

00:23:56.780 Thanks so much.

00:23:58.380 Oh, and incidentally, while Freeland back in January told the media that politicians do not advise law enforcement, do you really believe that?

00:24:08.660 Because a few months ago, Prime Minister Trudeau had a private meeting with Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkew.

00:24:18.460 But why?

00:24:20.260 The chief doesn't answer to the PM.

00:24:22.100 So what was being discussed here?

00:24:25.500 Maybe, you know, go a little easy on the pro-Hamas types, given that there is an election looming in the months ahead and this is a potential demograph for the liberals to court.

00:24:37.520 And maybe there's more of them than there are Jews, after all. 0.93

00:24:41.540 Which would explain why Toronto Police Constables reimagined themselves as Uber Eats drivers to deliver these thugs coffee and timbits.

00:24:51.380 And maybe Trudeau, with a nudge-nudge, wink-wink, suggested to Chief Demkew that if there are any, you know, independent media types asking insensitive questions, well, hey, chief, could you throw the book at them?

00:25:07.880 I mean, how else can you possibly explain my most recent arrests simply for practicing journalism in public spaces?

00:25:17.760 Bottom line, RCMP Commissioner Duham, can you kindly get back to eradicating real crime and stop fretting about getting laws on the books to protect politicians from hurt feelings?

00:25:32.760 Sticks and stones and all that, right?

00:25:35.980 And in the meantime, how about giving that unhinged officer, Greg Dumochelle, a.k.a. Uncle Fester,

00:25:44.240 how about giving him the boot for committing real criminal acts, such as physical assault and false arrest?

00:25:52.940 The Mounties always get their man, don't they?

00:25:56.040 Or do you consider Officer Dumochelle to be the poster boy for how a proper Mountie should act?

00:26:05.200 You know, a goon with a gun who will go to whatever lengths to protect important political types like Chrystia Freeland from unauthorized questions. 0.78

00:26:17.620 It's surreal, isn't it, folks?

00:26:19.460 I mean, going back to 2015, I thought Justin Trudeau's Canada was supposed to be all about sunny ways, sunny ways, my friends.

00:26:29.000 Remember that?

00:26:29.740 But when it comes to Prime Minister Trudeau and his RCMP Commissioner Duham,

00:26:36.840 our dominion is more and more resembling a lyric plucked from the song Home on the Range,

00:26:42.600 you know, where seldom is heard a discouraging word.

00:26:47.920 And if you all have a problem with that, well, folks, your local police department has a jail cell ready and waiting for you.

00:26:59.000 Quebec, of course, is a distinct society.

00:27:13.220 It is French.

00:27:14.580 They speak French.

00:27:15.460 It's a French culture.

00:27:16.400 They are the descendants of French settlers in North America.

00:27:20.040 It's a very special place.

00:27:21.220 And one of the decisions made, I guess, a generation ago by the province is they wanted to bring in French-speaking immigration so as not to dilute the French fact.

00:27:34.220 Well, who speaks French around the world?

00:27:37.240 There are some French parts of Africa.

00:27:40.160 There's Haiti and some other Caribbean French-speaking places.

00:27:44.400 That's why there's a large Haitian population in Quebec.

00:27:47.220 But really, numerically, it seems that they bet heavily on the Maghreb region, the north of Africa, that was colonized and actually rebelled against France's empire.

00:28:01.260 I'm talking about places like Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria.

00:28:05.560 Those people who were colonized and were actually part of a civil war against the French.

00:28:13.420 I bumped into some folks like that when I visited the port of Marseille, France, last year.

00:28:19.720 Here's my conversation with someone from Algeria who said France colonized Algeria and now Algerians are returning the favor. 0.88

00:28:28.880 Remember this conversation?

00:28:30.820 In your heart, are you in Algeria or in the first place of Algeria?

00:28:39.040 Live in Algeria, until the death of the world. 1.00

00:28:40.740 T'es alive, T'es alive, T'es alive, T'es alive, T'es alive, T'es alive.

00:28:43.940 Mais messieurs, si vous nous direz que je suis un Français numéro un, est-ce que vous êtes raciste?

00:28:58.320 On n'est pas raciste.

00:28:59.760 J'ai dit et je le répète, le monde appartient à tout le monde.

00:29:04.560 Chaque être humain peut vivre là où il veut. 0.96

00:29:07.820 Il n'y a pas de problème sur ça.

00:29:10.360 On vit là où on veut.

00:29:12.120 La terre appartient au bon Dieu.

00:29:14.000 Et nous, on appartient au bon Dieu.

00:29:15.520 On vit là où on veut.

00:29:16.900 Il n'y a pas de limite.

00:29:17.820 C'est bon.

00:29:18.380 T'es là.

00:29:18.580 J'ai trouvé une contradiction in one of the gentlemen because he said we're not treated

00:29:22.820 with respect as Frenchmen, but we don't put France first.

00:29:28.980 Do you see the distinction there?

00:29:32.520 Do you see the contradiction there?

00:29:33.820 Franchement, tout ce qui se passe ici, c'est par rapport à l'État.

00:29:37.960 Tout ça, c'est la faute des policiers, c'est la faute de l'État.

00:29:41.440 Parce qu'ici en France, il y a trop de racisme.

00:29:43.740 Le racisme, il est au premier degré ici en France.

00:29:46.860 C'est tout ce que j'ai à dire.

00:29:48.120 C'est tout.

00:29:48.420 Pourquoi millions de musulmans immigrent à France si le français est raciste?

00:29:59.100 Eh bien, ils nous ont colonisé 132 ans.

00:30:02.300 Et là, c'est notre tour de venir ici pour, comment t'expliquer là, pour, je ne sais pas

00:30:10.080 trouver les mots.

00:30:11.440 Ils nous ont colonisé 132 ans.

00:30:13.460 Et maintenant, on va les coloniser à vie jusqu'à la mort, jusqu'à la fin des temps.

00:30:17.080 Alors, je pense que c'est happening en Québec, aussi.

00:30:21.580 So many of the people brought into the province, parce qu'ils parlent French, 1.00

00:30:25.260 well, they have other characteristics and attributes, aussi.

00:30:29.240 The French language is one part of who they are,

00:30:31.820 but many of them have a sense of Arab identity,

00:30:35.520 and unfortunately, many of them seem to have an anti-Semitic identity,

00:30:39.720 as well, since Canada does not screen new immigrants

00:30:43.620 for anti-Semitism or any other form of cultural fit.

00:30:47.800 And so this week, when there was a pro-Israel rally

00:30:50.960 in support of Israel's national day, Israel's independence,

00:30:55.220 there was a massive anti-Israel rally at the same time,

00:31:00.060 right across the street.

00:31:01.660 And in the middle was our reporter, Alexa Lavoie.

00:31:04.520 She joins us now via Skype.

00:31:06.340 Alexa, great to see you again.

00:31:08.280 Great to see you, too.

00:31:09.780 You know, there's been a lot of battles in Montreal,

00:31:13.500 and in fact, some of the craziest things so far have happened.

00:31:17.280 The attempt to shoot a school or a synagogue.

00:31:21.920 Actually, it wasn't an attempt.

00:31:22.800 They did shoot a school or synagogue.

00:31:24.820 There was a Molotov cocktail thrown there.

00:31:26.580 So there have been kinds of violence in Montreal

00:31:30.420 we haven't seen elsewhere.

00:31:32.000 We've also seen massive street rallies

00:31:34.900 larger than anywhere else in the country

00:31:37.220 where jihadists have basically had open-air rallies

00:31:42.760 calling for support of Hamas.

00:31:45.800 It really is the most hardcore pro-Hamas city in Canada, 1.00

00:31:51.280 don't you think?

00:31:52.660 I think so.

00:31:53.880 But I think also we need to don't forget

00:31:56.420 that Montreal is also a place

00:32:00.620 where we have the most people from the radical left.

00:32:04.780 I'm talking about Antifa, Black Bloc. 1.00

00:32:07.720 We have also, like, anarchists.

00:32:10.500 A lot of people emerging from the radical left wing

00:32:15.520 in terms of politics.

00:32:17.440 And those people have merged with the radical Islamo-like leftists,

00:32:27.000 I would say.

00:32:28.420 I think you're right.

00:32:29.260 I'm so glad you said that.

00:32:30.520 And it's true. 0.56

00:32:31.760 Antifa is the most organized there.

00:32:34.340 I would say they're the most violent there.

00:32:37.180 Antifa from Montreal, in fact, are often shipped by bus to Ottawa

00:32:41.500 to form the backbone of left-wing protests.

00:32:43.780 So I think what you're saying is, yes, there are Arab and Muslim activists

00:32:49.260 who support Hamas, but they are in an alliance with Antifa,

00:32:54.000 with communists, with hard leftists.

00:32:55.920 So you're saying it's a coalition.

00:32:57.700 It is, clearly, because most of the students that we see in those encampments

00:33:04.700 are not the ones that will usually be pro-Palestino

00:33:12.040 or anything else like that, you know.

00:33:14.260 Most of them didn't raise their voice

00:33:16.720 when multiple Arabs were killed across the Arabic country around the world.

00:33:23.300 It's just that now they want to grow their agenda

00:33:26.720 and they found the perfect, perfect story for them.

00:33:31.280 And what we see so far is, like, their movement, they were right

00:33:35.860 because their movement is growing and growing at a fast speed.

00:33:41.800 So tell me the demographics at the protest.

00:33:45.500 I've been to protests in different cities, and you have too.

00:33:48.040 I remember you went to London, England, and if I saw correctly,

00:33:53.220 and I was there once too, I would say about 80% to 90% of the protesters

00:33:57.940 in London, England are new immigrants from Muslim places,

00:34:03.280 including Pakistan, for example.

00:34:05.820 When I was at Columbia, I would say it's the opposite.

00:34:10.080 80% or 90% of the protesters were white, liberal, rich kids

00:34:16.160 who found this the cause du jour.

00:34:19.960 What's the demographic mix when you were there this week

00:34:23.760 at the dueling protest?

00:34:25.340 Who was on the pro-Hamas side? 0.83

00:34:27.860 Were they foreigners?

00:34:28.980 Were they woke activists?

00:34:30.480 Were they anti-File?

00:34:31.320 Like, who were they?

00:34:32.300 What did they look like?

00:34:34.840 So there were not that many

00:34:37.000 because most of them are protecting probably the encampment right now

00:34:41.500 because there is some threat against them to being removed.

00:34:46.360 So there were not that many.

00:34:48.320 But what I can say is, like, the main people in charge chanting slogan

00:34:52.340 are Arabic, are emerging from Arabic country.

00:34:56.760 I don't know if they are Canadian citizens

00:34:58.700 or they are just here temporary.

00:35:02.300 Only government know about it.

00:35:04.460 But the person in charge of the leading are most of the time

00:35:10.100 people who are Arabic themselves.

00:35:14.100 They are Muslim.

00:35:16.000 And the other ones who are following are mostly white,

00:35:20.200 white students, white people from Quebec,

00:35:23.940 and some of them are also immigrants.

00:35:26.880 It's like a mix.

00:35:28.520 I would say half enough or sometimes it's really hard

00:35:33.980 because something that is different in Montreal,

00:35:38.020 almost everybody wear a mask

00:35:40.040 and wear, like, a cafe around their face.

00:35:44.080 So it's really difficult to know who they are.

00:35:47.480 Right.

00:35:48.060 I really think we've set our society back years

00:35:52.160 by normalizing the wearing of masks.

00:35:55.460 I mean, other than if you're a welder 0.98

00:35:57.320 or if it's minus 30 and you have to go outside on a snowmobile,

00:36:02.660 I think the idea of wearing a mask is antisocial

00:36:06.080 and it serves, obviously, to keep secret the identity

00:36:11.440 of people who are doing illegal things.

00:36:14.280 That's why bank robbers wear masks.

00:36:16.340 They're not protecting themselves from the cold.

00:36:18.680 I think we've done a terrible thing by normalizing masks again.

00:36:22.540 Tell me about some of your particular interactions.

00:36:24.920 What bothered me, amongst other things,

00:36:28.480 was that Montreal's police

00:36:30.260 obviously found it easier to manhandle you

00:36:34.460 and boss you around and move you around as a journalist 0.60

00:36:38.160 than to do so for these Hamas supporters.

00:36:41.020 Tell us a bit of that and we'll play a video clip

00:36:43.140 of the police pushing you around and even hitting you.

00:36:45.740 So I caught the crowds chanting

00:36:50.680 one of the most anti-Semitic slogans

00:36:53.660 that they were calling like,

00:36:55.780 or you say you're native, but you're all from Europe,

00:36:59.900 so go back to Europe.

00:37:01.380 And they were chanting slogans like that

00:37:03.300 to the Israeli crowd in front of them.

00:37:06.800 So I caught them chanting that

00:37:08.740 and they were not that happy.

00:37:10.180 So afterwards they came after me

00:37:13.540 and saying, oh, that rebel news are terrorists

00:37:17.060 and that we are spreading disinformation.

00:37:20.580 And afterwards they came outside of the perimeter

00:37:24.360 that the police have put in place.

00:37:27.160 And they were coming towards me, blocking my camera.

00:37:31.460 And not only the police like to say,

00:37:33.680 okay, you need to go back to your perimeter, guys,

00:37:36.920 but they pushed me away.

00:37:38.760 Me that I have supposedly free press in Canada

00:37:44.100 who I'm doing my job as questioning people

00:37:47.280 why they are here and just basic question.

00:37:50.860 They say to me that I am provocating attention there

00:37:57.340 that I need to go to the corner of the street

00:37:59.380 where it's impossible for me to do my job properly.

00:38:02.940 And you know what?

00:38:04.040 Nothing have happened.

00:38:04.840 I was just interviewing the leader of the Naturai Carta

00:38:09.260 that asked me, requests me to say some words on camera

00:38:13.720 so I didn't go in his face or ask him for an interview.

00:38:18.140 He actually bring one of his guys to say,

00:38:21.680 I want to say my point of view.

00:38:24.280 I say, okay, I'm here to show all sides of the story.

00:38:27.600 And afterwards it became really aggressive

00:38:31.160 and violent on their side.

00:38:32.900 So I had no choice.

00:38:35.400 I needed to go a little bit further.

00:38:37.860 And I was just recording an update

00:38:40.320 and not only the police got handy with me,

00:38:44.600 but one of them hit my back.

00:38:47.520 And I was really mad because I was like,

00:38:50.320 how dare you to hit a journalist in the back? 0.95

00:38:53.940 And to hit a woman. 0.92

00:38:55.620 I mean, not that, I mean, it's just, 0.99

00:38:58.480 there's something gross about it.

00:39:00.720 There's something gratuitous.

00:39:02.260 There's something bullying about it.

00:39:04.080 Here, let's play that clip.

00:39:05.380 A lot of things in this clip make me mad.

00:39:07.240 Take a look.

00:39:07.700 And go back to Europe. 0.71

00:39:09.620 They claim that they're indigenous,

00:39:11.720 but they all came from Europe.

00:39:14.120 Leave Palestine alone. 0.99

00:39:16.160 Leave Palestine alone. 0.99

00:39:18.240 Leave Palestine alone. 0.99

00:39:20.040 And go back to Europe. 0.71

00:39:21.960 When most of them are Canadian citizens.

00:39:25.460 And you know what?

00:39:27.420 I filmed them saying that I want to expose them.

00:39:31.000 And they saw that.

00:39:32.460 They started to chant against Rebel News.

00:39:36.240 And they were passing through the fence

00:39:39.340 to come toward us to block our camera. 0.99

00:39:42.800 Hey Rebel News, we know you're a liar too. 0.97

00:39:45.120 Hey, move away Rebel News. 0.94

00:39:46.800 Get out of here Rebel News.

00:39:48.020 Stop recording. 0.99

00:39:49.300 Stop recording you liar. 1.00

00:39:51.000 Stop recording you liar. 1.00

00:39:52.780 Back up. 0.98

00:39:53.740 Back up.

00:39:54.940 Space D's. 0.59

00:39:55.500 We don't need to deal with fake D's over here. 1.00

00:39:57.460 We don't deal with fake D's.

00:39:58.920 Hey, she's harassing us. 1.00

00:40:00.580 They're harassing us.

00:40:02.360 Same on you.

00:40:03.520 Same on you.

00:40:04.960 Same on you.

00:40:06.580 Same on you.

00:40:08.100 Same on you.

00:40:09.420 Same on you.

00:40:11.060 Same on you.

00:40:12.440 Same on you.

00:40:13.920 Same on you.

00:40:15.560 Same on you.

00:40:16.940 Same on you.

00:40:18.460 Same on you.

00:40:19.440 and you know what the police did no they not only asked them to go back inside of the square like

00:40:32.560 the perimeter but they pushed us away they asked us to go all the way down to the corner of the

00:40:39.200 street where i cannot do my job as a journalist so you see now they are blocking us instead of

00:40:46.560 doing something and asking them to not to come toward us to harass us and to threatening us

00:40:53.760 so this is just hilarious uh anyway this is ridiculous so you see like i have no problem

00:41:01.600 on the side of the israeli so i can show you the other side of the street it's pretty peaceful

00:41:06.320 they are celebrating their independence day today but we have this counter protesters that are

00:41:13.520 chanting and just a minute slogan but can you talk to me please can you just i have the freedom to do

00:41:20.640 whatever i want this is a public this is public space i was doing my job you have no hey you just 0.98

00:41:29.520 did that i i felt you you you freaking hit me in my back when you passed coward wow he hit me on my back 0.99

00:41:39.200 passing by do you see how the montreal police is acting with us this is ridiculous you know i wish 0.99

00:41:45.280 we had a camera shot from behind to show that abuse because without that it makes it hard to sue

00:41:52.400 the police as you know we've sued the police in montreal before for violating our civil rights for raiding

00:41:59.440 our airbnb a few years ago without a search form um there was another really weird clip that i saw

00:42:06.000 yesterday you have a little drone uh which a lot of our reporters have they're wonderful for getting

00:42:11.760 overhead shots and there are some rules about using them but for drones that are under a certain weight

00:42:17.600 they're considered toys by the government they're so light they really couldn't hurt a flea

00:42:22.880 so they are very unrestricted in their use you wanted to use a drone and the police threatened you

00:42:30.400 immediately but a little bit later on a hamas drone was literally feet in front of you like just

00:42:38.240 it was it was within arm's reach tell us about that and then we'll play the video clip so i'm always

00:42:45.440 going with the law so i'm always asking before flying my drone to and i am always asking the police

00:42:52.000 officer do you mind if i i fly my drone up and down i just want to take some shot

00:42:58.720 sometimes they say yes sometimes they say no but apparently that day they were no fly zone

00:43:03.760 so i say okay they say like if you fly it you will have a thousand dollars fine so i say okay i'm not

00:43:09.680 going to do it um i was just doing an update filming uh uh on pretty far away from both of the protests so

00:43:19.280 it's why i was really surprised but a drone came straight into my face filming me so i grabbed the drone

00:43:27.040 and i was like this person would need to go and came to me to to request the drone back

00:43:34.720 and and so i had that drone the man came to me of course it was from the crowd of the anti-israel

00:43:43.120 supporters because when i filmed him he was saying to me free palestine and so it was not happy because i

00:43:51.040 pressured the police because at the moment the police refused to fill a complaint against him

00:43:58.480 they said they have no proof that the drone was flying i was like i have my camera i can show you

00:44:04.160 all the proof and they say okay are you ready to go in court and testify against this man was like since

00:44:11.040 when if if it was me flying my drone in a minute i will have had my information taken away from me and

00:44:19.120 probably a complaint to transport canada because it they are the one in charge to um find the the

00:44:26.000 the people who would fly the drone illegally so after pressuring harder and harder the police they

00:44:34.720 finally took uh his information but our information because we have the proof of it and that man

00:44:42.240 partially was not happy and i think it's why he gave me the finger in the video here let's play that

00:44:50.000 video it's just astonishing the two-tiered policing which is i tell you it really decreases in my mind

00:44:57.840 public support for the police i've said it a hundred times in the last five years my support for police

00:45:04.000 has gone from complete and utter support chauvinistic support for the police to absolute skepticism

00:45:12.960 and it's because of things like this here take a look in the police and what the hell is that 0.95

00:45:33.040 so this drone just came to our face to film us in front of our face this is kind of like uh ridiculous

00:45:40.640 because not long time ago the police did refuse us to fly our drone and this drone out of nowhere and

00:45:47.760 it's not the police drone came to us so i grabbed it in my hand but i pretty pretty sure that this drone is

00:45:57.360 the it's there so we'll see if they will come to search that drone but now i have it in my hand

00:46:14.080 and it just give me a finger right there so the police would find you and charge you if you dare fly

00:46:32.640 the drone but a drone is flown mere feet away from you and the cops don't give a care i think it really

00:46:38.480 is eroding public trust's policing let me ask you how is the hamas encampment still on migill campus

00:46:46.960 because i understand they went to court to get an injunction and i think the police were asked to

00:46:53.520 move the the illegal encampment is that right is the is the encampment still there so it's really

00:47:00.640 complex because uh francois legault that is the premier of quebec i request the police officer to do

00:47:06.400 their job and to remove the encampment uh in partnership with mcgill uh the first injunction that

00:47:12.800 was filled by two students was refused by the court afterwards mcgill i feel another injunction on

00:47:19.520 friday that uh injunction was again refused today so um refused by whom refused by the by who the court

00:47:29.520 okay so is there an injunction in effect right now no so all the injunction that been filled so far

00:47:37.680 uh failed uh failed and so right now we know that the mayor of montreal doesn't want the police to

00:47:43.520 crack down she doesn't want uh an entire interaction between protesters and the police she said that she 0.96

00:47:49.760 doesn't want to look like or to get closer of what we saw in uh in america and she said that this is not

00:47:57.920 us we know that the police were against also the injunction uh apparently it's what i i saw on

00:48:05.680 on internet so there is multiple angles in this story i don't think the those encampments will go

00:48:13.440 uh will be removed uh soon and especially because we have a third encampment now that uh been set up

00:48:21.360 in sherbrooke so now in the province of quebec we have three encampments in different in university

00:48:28.160 well that's incredible and it's quite something for the mayor to say uh enforcing the law and removing

00:48:33.440 illegal trespassers is not who we are but i guess having pro hamas illegal shanty towns that chant

00:48:41.280 anti-semitic things and violate the law of mischief trespass vandalism that is who montreal is and you

00:48:48.800 know what she can count she can count the number of people in that city who are hamas supporters um and

00:48:57.520 i think that like justin trudeau she's she's good enough at math to know which way the demographics

00:49:04.880 are well listen i'm so glad you're there please stay safe please go with security where possible

00:49:11.680 and realize that your enemies are not just antifa and hamas but frankly the montreal police are against

00:49:19.040 you too so please be careful i will thank you all right there you have it alexa lavoie with a report

00:49:24.880 from quebec stay with us more ahead
