Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Abacus： dumping Poilievre buys the Conservatives almost nothing

00:00:00.040 Oh, hi, everybody. You know, it's been bothering me so much, this Whisper campaign against

00:00:04.640 Pierre Pauly of the leader of the Conservative Party. And all I can think about is why is

00:00:11.120 the Liberal Party and why are so many red Tories saying that Pierre Pauly was a terrible

00:00:14.660 leader, he's unelectable, and he has to go? If that were true, wouldn't they want to keep

00:00:19.380 him? I mean, they never tried to get rid of Jagmeet Singh, who actually was a terrible

00:00:23.720 leader, because they want to compete against a terrible leader. Isn't it sort of obvious

00:00:29.460 that they want to get rid of Pierre Paglia

00:00:31.460 because he's not a terrible leader?

00:00:34.240 Like, why would the liberals care otherwise?

00:00:36.840 Look, I'll prove it to you, not just with my hunch,

00:00:39.240 but with a liberal pollster.

00:00:41.420 You don't want to miss this one.

00:00:55.720 but boy, it sure adds up for us.

00:00:59.460 tonight canada's most quoted pollster says the conservatives would be doing just about as badly

00:01:19.340 with any other leader so why is everyone in ottawa so sure the problem is pierre polyev

00:01:24.620 it's october 5th and this is the ezra levant show

00:01:27.520 Shame on you, you censorious bug.

00:01:42.680 Hey, let me start with a pollster, David Colletto. He runs Abacus Data. He's not conservative. I

00:01:49.160 got to tell you though, I really like the guy. He is the guy, the CBC and the Globe call when they

00:01:54.340 want a number and they want a stat. He's the establishment pollster. So when he says something

00:01:59.920 that helps the conservatives, you can be sure he didn't say it to do them a favor. I trust his

00:02:05.600 work actually. And on September 3rd, a couple of weeks ago now, and I've been thinking about it

00:02:10.580 since then, he published a piece called, and I'm quoting the title, is Pierre Polyev the reason

00:02:15.660 the conservatives are stuck? He polled more than 2,000 Canadians. He asked them about Mark Carney,

00:02:22.320 about Pierre Polyev, about the issues. And then he ran the numbers to see what would happen

00:02:26.920 if you took Polyev out and put in some imaginary leader that nobody disliked.

00:02:35.140 By the way, there is no such person, an imaginary leader that no one dislikes,

00:02:39.900 no such thing. But he tried it out and here's the answer he got. How much would a brand new leader

00:02:46.620 with no baggage at all pick up in the polls and his answer was two percent that's it the whole

00:02:55.100 prize you could blow up the party nuke pierre paulia run a leadership race spend a year tearing

00:03:01.120 each other apart ring out your members for donations for that fight rather than the big fight

00:03:08.020 and at the end of it if everything went perfectly you would be two percent better off within the

00:03:15.020 margin of error it's not me saying it that's this liberal leaning pollster coletto says the real

00:03:20.120 reason the conservatives are behind is that mark carney's popular right now the people approve of

00:03:26.040 his government right now and that they think he's the one to handle donald trump now i i don't agree

00:03:31.500 with any of that but that's why and i don't think that's a surprise to anyone that's what people say

00:03:37.840 as in it's not because the conservative leader it's because of the liberal leader

00:03:43.180 now you'd think that would sort of end the conversation i mean sort of obvious you can't

00:03:48.540 replace someone with no one who's going to do better than pierre paulia against mark carney

00:03:52.300 i don't see it at least not right now but the conversation was never actually about the numbers

00:03:59.240 it was never actually about who could do better it take a look at this ctb story from the caucus

00:04:05.540 retreat last month fractured mess who said that about the conservatives who called it a fractured

00:04:12.460 message. A source. An anonymous source. CTV says it has heard from, quote, more than a dozen caucus

00:04:18.700 sources complaining about polyeth. More than a dozen. And not one of them will put their name

00:04:24.480 to it. Not one. Think about that. These are elected members of parliament. They have microphones.

00:04:29.180 They have scrums. They have Twitter accounts. If they thought their leader should go, they could

00:04:33.520 say so. They have a legal mechanism to do it, by the way, under the Reform Act. I don't know if

00:04:38.660 you remember that law was passed a few years ago, 20% of the caucus can sign a letter and trigger

00:04:43.660 a review. They haven't done that. In fact, eight months ago at the convention in Calgary,

00:04:50.440 the party membership gave Pierre Pauliev 87% in his leadership review. That's how the actual

00:04:56.920 party members think he's doing. This was after he lost. They know he lost, but they like him 87%.

00:05:02.920 that's pretty good so the members are with them the caucus won't actually do anything about them

00:05:08.780 other than allegedly gripe anonymously the pollster says a new leader would barely move the needle and

00:05:16.240 yet every week there's another story another whisper another anonymous quote that's not a

00:05:22.500 leadership crisis that's some undermining campaign and i think it's a mean girls campaign i don't

00:05:29.560 know if you remember that movie a clique that decides everyone else is uncool decides someone

00:05:34.940 is out and then everyone whispers nobody says it to their face and the whole school just absorbs

00:05:39.980 the idea that so and so is finished it's like high school nobody has to prove anything it's just a

00:05:44.680 vibe and the vibe is spread these days on social media by people who would never day say it on the

00:05:50.020 record so who's in this little clique well obviously the liberals are which is sort of weird

00:05:56.280 and i want to i want you to ask an obvious question oh it's so obvious if the liberals 0.57

00:06:02.280 and the media truly believe that pierre palia was a weak leader a loser a man who can't win

00:06:10.820 why on earth would they want him gone why on earth would they try and replace him i mean think about

00:06:17.640 it if your opponent is weak you keep him you pray he stays you send him a fruit basket here's a

00:06:23.660 proof for two and a half years from march 2022 to september 2024 jagmeet singh's ndp was polling

00:06:31.740 terribly actually before that too they were propping up a liberal governance chain for

00:06:38.200 almost nothing that anyone could name singh was such a weak leader everyone knew it the liberals

00:06:44.520 knew it best of all did the liberals run a campaign to get rid of jagmeet singh did

00:06:49.760 liberal mps post on twitter every day that the ndp needed a new leader did liberal staffers

00:06:55.740 feed anonymous quotes to ctv about how the ndp caucus was a fractured mess

00:07:00.600 no of course not they loved jagmeet singh for that reason they kept jagmeet singh in power for

00:07:09.260 as long as they possibly could because a weak opponent is a gift so when these same liberals

00:07:15.380 and media pundits and red Tories spend their days on social media telling conservatives up here

00:07:21.360 Polly has to go that he's unelectable that it's time for a change you know exactly what that

00:07:26.640 means it means they don't want him around maybe they're afraid of him you don't try to fire the 0.99

00:07:32.980 opponent you want to face you try to fire the one you don't and here's the thing about mean girls

00:07:39.640 they don't say it to your face they say it to each other then they say it to the people who 0.74

00:07:43.320 want to be in the clique which brings me to the so-called conservatives you know the ones i mean

00:07:47.260 former staffers who are on the losing side of a leadership race against polyev

00:07:51.420 pundits who have been predicting polyev's demise since 2022 provincial operators who think their

00:07:57.120 guy should be running the country a columnist here a podcaster there i'm not going to name

00:08:02.040 them because none of them has said it plainly well that's not quite true but the whole point

00:08:06.900 is they they sort of subtweet they just ask questions they retreat with the anonymous you

00:08:11.680 know the ctv story with a thinking face emoji they go on panels and say with great sadness i'm very

00:08:17.280 sad about what's happening and i'm hearing things from caucus and when you look at who they are

00:08:23.260 there's really only two kinds the first kind has a guy they you could see who they want they've

00:08:29.120 always had a guy they wanted their guy in 2022 and didn't get their way they've never forgiven

00:08:34.600 the party for maybe they don't think polyev is unelectable they think polyev is in the way

00:08:39.720 every conservative leader since harper has had these people and sheer had them erin o'toole had

00:08:45.460 them they're not interested in beating carney they're interested in winning the next leadership

00:08:49.720 race and you can't have a leadership race without a vacancy the second kind is worse the second kind

00:08:55.300 has figured out that there's a liberal government in ottawa with a majority probably for four years

00:09:00.320 and that government hands out perks and jobs and ambassadorships and boards and advisory councils

00:09:08.400 and Senate seats. Look at that. Aaron O'Toole, the former conservative leader named by Mark Carney

00:09:14.140 to his advisory committee on Canada-U.S. relations. Now, I'm not saying O'Toole has said

00:09:19.220 a strong word about Polyev lately. I don't think he has. I think he's been more

00:09:24.500 passive-aggressive about it. But I am saying that that's the kind of appointment that gets

00:09:28.960 noticed. Everyone in Ottawa saw it. And everybody in Ottawa who calls himself a conservative and

00:09:33.680 who'd like a nice, soft landing, understood the message. Because Pierre Pauly was not going to be

00:09:38.440 making patronage appointments in any quick hurry. Mark Carney can be. So hey, hey guys,

00:09:44.600 be reasonable. Be the good kind of conservative. Be the kind of conservative the liberals can work

00:09:49.800 with and who knows what might come your way. So it's almost like they're auditioning. Every time

00:09:55.880 they dump on Pierre Pauly on Twitter, they're auditioning. They probably send a copy to all

00:09:59.980 their liberal friends. Look what a good boy I am. Not good for a conservative vote. It's good for

00:10:04.720 Mark Carney. What they're doing is not political analysis. They're actually just applying

00:10:10.140 for a job with Carney. Now, let me show you the other thing Abacus found, because it tells you

00:10:15.880 who is actually on which side of this. Latest Abacus poll published last week, September 27th,

00:10:23.840 I think. Overall, the liberals are up 12 points. Not great for the conservatives, but look at it

00:10:29.060 by demographics canadians aged 18 to 29 conservatives 42 liberals 32 a 10 point

00:10:39.680 conservative lead amongst young people age 30 to 44 conservatives 39 liberals 36

00:10:48.600 only once you get older 45 to 59 do the liberals poke through in the first place 47 to 35

00:10:58.660 and 60 and over liberals dominate 59 compared to 26 for the conservatives that's a 33 point gap

00:11:06.340 that's a big gap so everyone under 45 is leaning conservative young people the ones supposed to be

00:11:13.360 the future the ones every party says they want they're with polyam because they're the ones out

00:11:19.640 there having a tough time competing against massive immigration for a job they're the ones out there

00:11:24.160 trying to buy a house and they can't afford a down payment they're the ones out there suffering 0.99

00:11:28.220 the crime they're the ones building a family starting a life and they can't get ahead

00:11:32.540 the entire liberal lead the whole 12 points comes from one group seniors now i love seniors my mom

00:11:41.140 and dad are seniors but think about who that group is as a group their their house is paid off

00:11:46.460 so they really don't care about mortgage rates because they own their house

00:11:50.320 uh the housing crisis as in high prices that ain't a crisis for them that's that's their

00:11:57.380 nest egg isn't it the 30 year old who can't buy a condo that's not them the house they bought in

00:12:04.040 1985 for 100 grand is now worth 2 million they don't need the housing market fixed if anything

00:12:08.920 they'd rather it wasn't they they're retired so the job market isn't their concern anymore youth

00:12:13.420 unemployment the new grad who can't find anything the guy competing with a million temporary foreign

00:12:18.220 workers for a shift to tim hortons that's not them they've got a pension that's indexed and a lot of

00:12:23.320 them don't have to i don't know go downtown anymore they don't have to take the subway at 11

00:12:27.620 at night they don't walk past the tent encampment to get to work they don't have their kids in school 0.84

00:12:32.220 where the police get called they read about crime in the newspaper sure but the long people young

00:12:36.840 people live in it so of course the boomers are not angry at canada why would they be mark carney's 0.87

00:12:42.620 very reassuring man if nothing else i mean if if nothing in your life needs to change

00:12:48.020 mark carney probably is your good bat but the people whose lives do need to change

00:12:54.800 the people who are actually paying for the last 10 years well they've made up their minds and

00:12:59.600 they did not pick mark carney that's the generation the conservative party has won not by accident

00:13:05.460 pierre poly have spent three years talking about housing and paychecks and crime and the people

00:13:10.320 living with those problems hurt him the people who don't have those problems well they prefer

00:13:15.440 to have elbows up to fight the orange man, Donald Trump. Here's what I want you to notice, though.

00:13:21.120 The mean girls, the clique, the people telling you Polyev has to go, what do they look like? Who are

00:13:26.180 they? They're not 25. They're not the guy who can't get a condo. They're comfy. They're Ottawa.

00:13:31.300 They're insiders. They're exactly the people in that 60-plus liberal column, or they work for them.

00:13:36.800 So when they tell you the conservative leader is the problem, remember what the leading liberal

00:13:41.720 pollsters said. Two-point difference, that's all. And remember who's actually on which side.

00:13:48.060 Look, Pierre Pauly might lose the next election. I don't know. Liberals are up 12. That's real,

00:13:53.400 but that's not insurmountable. But if he does lose, it won't be because he's a weak leader.

00:13:58.440 It'll be because the country was in a mood, because Trump scared people into the arms of a

00:14:02.800 banker, and because the people who should have been fighting Carney spent their time fighting

00:14:08.160 their own side on Twitter instead. The liberals never tried to get rid of Jagmeet Singh. Ask

00:14:16.140 yourself why they're trying so hard to get rid of Pierre Paglia. I think you know. Stay with us for

00:14:23.860 more. Conservatives gathered in Calgary this weekend for the We Unify conference, bringing

00:14:34.100 together speakers to tackle some of the biggest political and cultural issues facing Canada.

00:14:39.240 From free speech and Western culture to Alberta sovereignty and the role of faith in society,

00:14:44.220 the conference featured discussions about the direction Canada is headed

00:14:47.300 and what organizers describe as reclaiming truth, culture and individual sovereignty.

00:14:52.700 Turning Point USA contributor Will Witt traveled to Calgary as the conference's only American

00:14:57.420 speaker bringing a perspective from the south of the border on many of the same cultural

00:15:01.640 and political issues playing out here in Canada.

00:15:04.920 During his remarks, Witt argued that unity shouldn't come at the expense of standing

00:15:09.380 up for what you believe is right, saying that rather than seeking unity with evil, it needs

00:15:13.960 to be confronted and defeated.

00:15:16.320 There's a lot of evil ideas out there, and a lot of things that are happening, and not

00:15:19.880 to my country but here, that we continue to get steamrolled on, and the left, any time

00:15:25.360 you give them an inch, they will take a mile.

00:15:27.880 We capitulate to them all the time and say, oh, it's okay, it's okay, we'll capitulate to you.

00:15:32.820 But I think about the idea of communism, right?

00:15:35.200 Communism as an ideology, the most evil, insidious ideology in history,

00:15:39.040 killed 100 million people in the 20th century.

00:15:42.680 And now you have people in American government, and I'm sure in your guys' government too,

00:15:46.280 who are communists.

00:15:47.340 In America, we talk about the Green New Deal, Build Back Better, these socialist programs.

00:15:51.760 I mean, it is essentially communism.

00:15:53.120 And you have Republicans, conservatives, say, okay, we'll find some common ground on that.

00:15:57.120 No, you do not find common ground with ideas that killed 100 million people.

00:16:00.860 You say, I want to win and get unity back to you.

00:16:05.020 In the conference, you said we shouldn't seek unity with evil.

00:16:08.300 Why is it a better approach to conquer evil rather than unite?

00:16:11.960 I think it's somewhat obvious in the sense of if there's evil out there, you want to defeat it.

00:16:16.680 You don't want a society that's filled with evil, filled with despondency,

00:16:20.000 filled with people who want to do harm to others.

00:16:22.080 What we should really be looking is to see the things that are going on in Canada,

00:16:26.080 america wherever it might be and saying how can we go against these things to make it so they're

00:16:30.960 no longer here right obviously that doesn't mean taking away people's free speech which some people

00:16:35.600 will say oh you're being crazy it's not about taking people's free speech or rights away

00:16:39.680 they still have the ability to express themselves when it comes to governance and business and how

00:16:43.600 people live their lives like right think about in america right we have half the country that's

00:16:47.280 conservative republican christian you know basically and it's like imagine if all those

00:16:51.760 people really started fighting for the things they believed in and actually lived up to the

00:16:55.120 conservative values that they say they do right you wouldn't need all the politicians and all

00:16:59.680 these things because the evil would be being defeated by the way that people act and choose

00:17:03.120 to live canada isn't a very pivotal point right now there's a lot of government censorship and

00:17:07.120 overreach how is it like for you as an american looking inside canada what what are you concerned

00:17:12.720 about for us i'm concerned that it's too cold i mean that's number one you guys should all the

00:17:17.520 good canadians should move to florida and help us make that even better um but really i'm concerned

00:17:22.000 in the fact that you don't have freedom of speech in the same way you might say a freedom of

00:17:25.760 expression and those kind of things but there are hate speech laws and and that's i mean that is the

00:17:30.400 pinnacle of a free society you know genesis 1 1 god created the heavens and the earth and in this

00:17:34.880 moment he didn't just create the trees and the rocks and the things that we stand on he created

00:17:39.440 order where there was nothingness where there was a void he created order from chaos he created order

00:17:46.320 This is why the left, the atheist left, they love chaos.

00:17:49.840 And they hate God because they hate order. 0.95

00:17:52.120 And they do all of these things through emotion.

00:17:54.280 And they destroy every single thing that they touch.

00:17:56.740 Myself, I'm an Eagle Scout.

00:17:57.980 I don't know exactly the alternative here in Canada for the Boy Scouts.

00:18:02.560 But America, you know, we have the Boy Scouts of America.

00:18:04.640 Got my Eagle Scout.

00:18:05.280 It's one of my proudest moments, right?

00:18:07.600 And now what is the Boy Scouts?

00:18:09.320 It's just the Scouts now. 0.78

00:18:10.300 They let girls into the Scouts.

00:18:11.460 They have a new merit badge, which is required for Eagle.

00:18:13.440 I believe it's called Citizenship in the Universe.

00:18:16.320 whatever that means, which is basically the social justice warrior, the merit badge.

00:18:21.080 And it's like, if the left wanted to, they have all the power, all the money,

00:18:24.180 all the influence in the world to be able to do whatever they want. 0.92

00:18:26.500 If they wanted to go and create their own little transgender communist scouts, 0.99

00:18:30.180 they could do it. They could do it. 0.99

00:18:32.160 But they don't know how. They don't know how to create anything.

00:18:34.660 The only thing they know how to do is destroy. 1.00

00:18:36.940 Canada and the United States were built on Christian values. 0.85

00:18:40.620 Can we preserve our institutions and our freedoms without those Christian values?

00:18:45.980 or is that something that we absolutely need you need those values i mean those are the values of

00:18:49.660 the west and it's not just the christian values because i mean before christianity you had plato

00:18:55.180 and socrates and the values of antiquity and these kind of things and they all go hand in

00:18:58.700 hand to create what western values are and so those western values are imperative and again

00:19:03.500 that goes back to free speech free discussion um equality under the law like these kinds of 1.00

00:19:08.940 western values that you don't have in other places right you know you got all these muslims who are 1.00

00:19:12.700 coming into canada and america and europe in general you know and sharia law is not western 0.98

00:19:18.140 values right it doesn't line up and there's also a difference because with christianity

00:19:24.700 you don't have the same of like christianity running the government and then running the people

00:19:29.900 but when you have sharia law i mean it's literally sharia law it is supposed if you read the quran

00:19:34.060 it's supposed to be entrenched with the government and so it's two different things and so again it

00:19:37.980 goes back to the idea of people being able to have the freedom to be able to live out those values

00:19:42.540 of goodness. And without those Christian values, Western values, yeah, you'll lose it.

00:19:46.780 The biggest problem facing the West in general today is not necessarily 0.63

00:19:50.500 leftism. It is the fact that young people and even older people in general 0.98

00:19:54.680 do not have meaning and purpose in their lives. When you have a culture, a society

00:19:58.920 of people who don't have that meaning and purpose, that threat that brings us all 0.81

00:20:02.780 together, well then you're going to have some sort of other religion, in this case

00:20:06.820 religion of leftism, come and take that. Come and fill that void

00:20:10.260 for these people who are missing something.

00:20:12.560 Have Canadians become dependent on politicians and institutions to save Canada?

00:20:18.460 I mean, I can't say for certain because I'm not a Canadian and know everything,

00:20:21.240 but Americans definitely have.

00:20:22.780 You know, everyone's always asking, and they ask me questions.

00:20:25.780 And they say, when is the president going to change?

00:20:27.420 When's my community going to change?

00:20:28.860 When's my wife going to change?

00:20:29.940 You know, whatever it is. 0.99

00:20:30.560 And they're never looking in the mirror and saying, when am I going to change?

00:20:33.820 And that's so sad to see, because when you're looking at the things in your world, 0.99

00:20:38.460 like you see these leftists and they always talk i saw this interview with this stupid actress and 0.94

00:20:42.460 she's like well everything's political everything's political it's like it's really not not everything 0.99

00:20:47.020 is political like the things that like if you were to leave home today or leave here today

00:20:51.180 and go home and have a problem it's probably an interpersonal problem that you're having

00:20:54.860 family relationship health or you know something like that not everything is political but they

00:20:59.580 make it this way um and so people become too dependent on relying on somebody else to actually

00:21:05.420 fix the things in their life that they should be working to fix themselves you know look in the

00:21:09.900 mirror and say how can i be a better person how can i live out the values that i believe in

00:21:13.500 to actually make myself my family and my community a better place you know one of the things that's

00:21:18.700 really important is uh i'm not sure if you're too familiar with all the founding fathers but

00:21:22.940 this patrick henry who was a founding father if you ever give me liberty or give me death

00:21:26.060 that was patrick henry and he had this they had these great lines about if your representative

00:21:31.020 is not within walking distance of you then they're not going to care about you

00:21:34.780 and i totally align with that because you see all the politicians i mean they don't they don't care

00:21:38.860 about us at all you know not at all because they don't have to worry about it it's outside out of

00:21:42.780 mind let's keep spending our money and not care and so what i think really needs to happen is a

00:21:46.620 return to a real federalism in not just canada but in america as well so that people actually

00:21:51.980 know their representatives and see how their money is being spent and then you have a moral

00:21:56.620 and good people who can actually provide for themselves with the freedom and liberty that

00:22:00.140 that they're presented by that type of government.

00:22:02.640 Make a good point.

00:22:03.480 We've had a lot of our rebel news journalists.

00:22:05.240 We literally have to sometimes do scrums with politicians

00:22:07.780 as they're walking into events

00:22:08.820 because it's very hard to actually speak with them

00:22:10.540 and they run away.

00:22:11.380 I've lost count of how many times

00:22:12.680 a politician at City Hall here in Calgary has just run away.

00:22:15.320 Final words to you for Canadians. 0.99

00:22:18.020 I love you guys.

00:22:20.360 Again, it's too cold, but keep up the fight.

00:22:22.060 There's so much good that can be done.

00:22:23.700 As I talked about in the speech,

00:22:25.700 I see the hunger in you guys.

00:22:27.560 I see the hunger in saying,

00:22:28.860 man, I want to change things.

00:22:31.120 Things are getting worse than ever.

00:22:32.740 And it's getting worse than ever in a very pusillanimous type of way.

00:22:36.980 What I mean by that is that the people of America and Canada

00:22:39.820 are becoming so weakened, so soft,

00:22:42.840 there is no purpose, no meaning.

00:22:44.720 We're just like, let the government, let the corporations do everything for us

00:22:48.060 and not actually stand up or fight and have our air-conditioned rooms

00:22:51.320 and DoorDash and porn and all these things.

00:22:52.960 And it's like there is a real hunger for something more than that,

00:22:56.020 especially for the young men who want something more than what they've been given.

00:23:00.620 And I see it on the hunger of the Canadians who are here,

00:23:03.700 and I know you guys can make big changes.

00:23:06.040 We have to. We have to.

00:23:09.080 It's happening.

00:23:10.580 Drea Humphrey here with Rebel News.

00:23:12.000 And in case you missed the good news,

00:23:14.400 our Rebel News Live Conference is coming to Vancouver, British Columbia,

00:23:19.040 Saturday, November 14th.

00:23:21.880 And the lineup we've put together, you're not going to want to miss it.

00:23:25.200 So go to rebelnewslive.com right now and grab your tickets while you still can.

00:23:32.060 You're going to hear from some amazing Canadians, including my Rebel News colleagues like Ezra

00:23:39.060 Levant, Rebel News founder who's built the news machine that brings you the other side

00:23:44.560 of the story, or Sheila Gunn-Reed, our editor-in-chief who literally wrote the blueprint for Alberta

00:23:52.060 independence. Tamara Leach, the Freedom Convoy organizer and patriot herself. You know, the one

00:23:59.060 the Liberal government saw jailed and still drags through court but never breaks. And yours truly

00:24:05.360 because taking on government overreach, the culture war, and the political landscape in

00:24:10.680 British Columbia is what I do. But it won't just be the rebels. The best part of the day is going

00:24:18.440 be our special guests. The speakers, which include Dallas Brody, leader of the 1BC party

00:24:24.920 who stood up for politically correct truth in the legislature when most MLAs wouldn't

00:24:31.460 dare to. Billboard Chris, a Vancouver dad and child protection activist who's been assaulted

00:24:37.680 more than 40 times for peacefully challenging the gender ideology that convinces children

00:24:44.220 they can be born in the wrong body.

00:24:46.880 Katie Pisidney, the ostrich farmer's daughter

00:24:49.920 and voice of the year-long fight for her family

00:24:52.560 to try to save their avian flu-recovered flock

00:24:55.440 from the globalist policy-following

00:24:57.940 Canadian Food Inspection Agency that slayed them last year.

00:25:02.800 And Dr. Frances Widowson, the brave professor

00:25:06.180 who's probably getting arrested right now

00:25:09.020 for trying to challenge the minds of university students

00:25:12.340 who, till this day, believe the false policy-shifting claim

00:25:16.400 that the remains of 215 children were found

00:25:21.000 at the former Kamloops Residential School.

00:25:23.920 With everything challenging our constitutional freedoms today,

00:25:27.220 you'll also hear from Odessa Orlitz,

00:25:29.580 the host of Liberally Talk,

00:25:31.260 who has been exposing such lost freedoms

00:25:34.120 and the rise of totalitarianism in Canada for years.

00:25:38.420 Which leads me to Adam Blake-Galipo,

00:25:40.520 A sharp lawyer with the Democracy Fund who has defended dozens of freedom fighters in Canada.

00:25:46.780 Ones that could beat you or someone near you soon if Canada doesn't change.

00:25:52.420 And that's what makes The Rebel Live happening on November 14th in the Vancouver area so important.

00:25:59.320 We need to learn from these keynote speakers, panels, be inspired.

00:26:03.340 and we also get to socialize and mingle with each other

00:26:07.160 during catered breakfasts, lunch, and breaks.
