Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Exclusive docs show RCMP damage control after riot cops caught laughing at police brutality against truckers

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Today, I take you through an access to information request, 165 pages of inside the RCMP emails and chatter about one of the worst moments in the Ottawa crackdown by police.

00:00:17.520 You remember when those RCMPs staying at the Chateau Laurier laughed and smirked at people getting smashed by horses and they loved the humiliation?

00:00:26.880 This was all captured on a police WhatsApp group that was leaked. Well, we broke some of the news on that.

00:00:35.340 And then we did an access to information request of what the police were saying internally.

00:00:38.960 Well, we've got their internal notes, 165 pages of damage control. I'll take you through that today.

00:00:45.760 Before I do, let me invite you to become a subscriber to Rebel News Plus. It's the video version of the show.

00:00:50.440 So it's a podcast, but with the viz. I think it's worth getting if you've got the time.

00:00:57.860 Go to rebelnewsplus.com, eight bucks a month. You get my show every day, plus weekly shows from four other folks over here.

00:01:04.600 And the eight bucks a month might not sound like a lot of dough to you, but you know, it adds up for us.

00:01:08.500 And we actually managed to cover a lot of our payroll just with that eight bucks a month.

00:01:12.480 So please consider it. All right, here's today's show.

00:01:15.060 Tonight, exclusive documents showing the RCMP's damage control operation when their riot cops were caught laughing at police brutality against the truckers.

00:01:39.840 It's April 22nd, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:42.820 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:48.560 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:52.640 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:01:58.520 We've got some access to information documents, a Rebel News exclusive.

00:02:08.620 Sheila Gunn-Reed broke the story earlier today.

00:02:11.120 And I think it's important enough for me to talk about it a second time.

00:02:15.100 It's more than 100 pages of internal RCMP chatter, damage control really, when their officers were caught laughing and mocking peaceful protesters who were stomped on by riot horses.

00:02:28.260 Just absolute cruelty, laughing at the public, dehumanizing the public.

00:02:33.960 Really a gross, gross moment in RCMP history, discrediting the force.

00:02:40.080 So we've got access to information documents.

00:02:42.820 And as you know, sometimes if you get important news on a Friday, sometimes it's best to hold that news until the next week.

00:02:50.140 Because on a Friday afternoon, people are already starting to think of the weekend.

00:02:53.560 They're not really focused on news and politics.

00:02:56.660 It's one reason why politicians like to release bad news at Friday at 5 p.m.

00:03:00.780 But I said to the team this morning, let's rush this news out today.

00:03:04.380 Maybe, even though it's access to information documents, other news organizations may have put in the same access to information request at the same time we did.

00:03:14.600 Because it's such an obviously newsworthy story.

00:03:17.560 Let's not wait, I said, because that happened to us once before.

00:03:21.920 And so what we thought was an exclusive document was released to a second news agency on the same day because they thought of the same question.

00:03:29.220 And we were both answered on the same time.

00:03:31.240 So we don't want to be late.

00:03:34.280 So there I was telling the team, rush to get this out today.

00:03:37.480 But now that I think about it, what a joke that is.

00:03:42.880 Because no other news agency is going to cover this.

00:03:45.440 Even if they had these documents given to them, they wouldn't run the story.

00:03:51.220 I mean, maybe our friends at True North would.

00:03:54.460 Because all the big media didn't cover the scandalous story in the first place when it happened.

00:04:01.600 Why would they now cover the story of the internal RCMP cover-up two months later?

00:04:08.020 And that's the second half of the story here.

00:04:10.000 The first half is the culture within the RCMP, that they are highly partisan.

00:04:14.620 They're political police now, who will literally do anything their partisan masters tell them to do.

00:04:20.480 They have no compunction enforcing Trudeau's martial law.

00:04:24.700 They love it.

00:04:25.620 They have no problem turning Ottawa into a police state, literally with 100 checkpoints across the city,

00:04:31.820 arresting people for simply walking in the city, arresting peaceful protesters.

00:04:35.940 That's super gross.

00:04:37.420 And that happened.

00:04:39.120 And then they were laughing when their own policing injured people.

00:04:43.720 So if you're not covering that when it happened, why would you cover paperwork about that two months later?

00:04:52.140 It was perhaps the worst moment in Canadian civil liberties history, certainly the worst since the 1970s War Measures Act.

00:04:59.620 That was more than 50 years ago.

00:05:01.420 I think it's perhaps the worst ever.

00:05:02.880 Trudeau's brutal and cruel and unconstitutional invocation of a form of martial law in response to a completely peaceful protest by Canadian truckers and their supporters.

00:05:13.160 It was a completely peaceful protest.

00:05:16.220 Not a single person was charged, let alone convicted, of any violent act, big or small.

00:05:23.540 Not a single weapon was found.

00:05:27.460 It was so peaceful that Trudeau and his bought and paid for media had to gin up fake news to justify their martial law,

00:05:35.160 claiming that an attempted arson in the city was done by the truckers.

00:05:38.320 It makes no sense.

00:05:39.700 It was a complete lie, but it was a lie that wasn't revealed until months later.

00:05:43.460 A lie that saw the police, the politicians and the media collude.

00:05:48.980 But back to the original story, police brutality, just shocking.

00:05:54.160 I mean, I hate to show you this again, but they literally shot our reporter Alexa in the leg.

00:06:00.360 What are you doing? Hold him!

00:06:02.320 Stop him! Stop him! Stop him! Stop him! 0.79

00:06:04.900 Stop him! Stop him! Stop him! 0.96

00:06:07.180 Stop him! Stop him! Stop him! 0.96

00:06:10.100 Stop him! Stop him! 0.99

00:06:12.100 You just fight and throw this! You just fight and throw this!

00:06:15.460 Stop him! Stop him! 0.99

00:06:18.980 Stop him! Stop him! 0.99

00:06:20.980 Stop him! 0.87

00:06:21.980 Stop him! 0.87

00:06:22.980 Stop him! 0.87

00:06:23.980 There you go.

00:06:24.980 You all right?

00:06:25.980 Got shot.

00:06:26.980 Take care.

00:06:28.980 Bring her out. Bring her out. Come on. 1.00

00:06:30.980 Oh my God!

00:06:31.980 No!

00:06:32.980 No!

00:06:33.980 Just atrocious.

00:06:37.980 So the police shot our journalists. We're suing them.

00:06:40.980 But the media was fine with that.

00:06:42.980 You'd think that Alexa being shot would at least make the news, 0.75

00:06:46.980 even if in some weird way they would try and blame her or condemn her.

00:06:50.980 No!

00:06:51.980 Just pretending it didn't happen.

00:06:53.980 Just turn a blind eye.

00:06:54.980 Here's the New York Times, the Bible for liberals.

00:06:57.980 They had reporters in Ottawa.

00:07:00.980 Breaking news!

00:07:01.980 The police arrested demonstrators at gunpoint near the Parliament Building in Ottawa in an effort to end the week's long protests.

00:07:11.980 And in case you didn't believe them, there were plenty of photos of police pointing guns in the face of peaceful truckers.

00:07:18.980 Here's some that were compiled by Canada Land.

00:07:21.980 Pretty shocking pictures.

00:07:23.980 But the media party just couldn't process that.

00:07:26.980 So they said it didn't happen.

00:07:28.980 They lied.

00:07:29.980 The New York Times' reporter was on the ground amongst the truckers.

00:07:33.980 The media party in Canada in the Maine didn't dare go near the truckers. 0.75

00:07:37.980 Yuck, right?

00:07:38.980 Girl germs, cooties, whatever. 0.99

00:07:40.980 But they said that the New York Times was lying even though they were there.

00:07:44.980 Here's Carol Off of the CBC.

00:07:46.980 Hey, New York Times, if you don't want to send reporters to the scene, then all you have to do is watch Canadian TV.

00:07:53.980 Try a bit harder to get this story right.

00:07:55.980 That's the CBC.

00:07:57.980 Here's the Globe and Mail.

00:08:00.980 Same thing.

00:08:02.980 They actually say, in my opinion, this requires a correction from the New York Times.

00:08:08.980 On what basis do they assert that people were arrested at gunpoint?

00:08:12.980 Armed police is not at gunpoint unless weapons were drawn and pointed to protesters.

00:08:17.980 And this is both factually incorrect and dangerous to assert.

00:08:20.980 Isn't it weird?

00:08:21.980 The reporters who were not there were telling the reporter who was there to delete and correct and retract her actual reports,

00:08:29.980 for which there was plenty of photographic evidence.

00:08:31.980 I just showed you a few pictures.

00:08:33.980 There's a lot of difference between what the Media Party reporters and Liberal Party MPs said.

00:08:37.980 Here's Mark Gerritsen.

00:08:38.980 He says, tip for New York Times.

00:08:40.980 Perhaps you should follow Ottawa police so you know what is actually going on.

00:08:46.980 And here's another Liberal MP.

00:08:48.980 This is the House Flipper from Vancouver.

00:08:51.980 Ahem.

00:08:52.980 Not one shot fired by police.

00:08:54.980 Well, she didn't say they were shot.

00:08:55.980 A coordinated, peaceful, measured, and proportional response shown by police forces from across Canada

00:09:01.980 in returning Ottawa to its citizens suggestion to the New York Times,

00:09:05.980 take this tweet down, it won't age well.

00:09:07.980 Take this tweet down.

00:09:09.980 He's a Liberal MP, so he really means take this tweet down.

00:09:12.980 He means for the tweet to be taken down, and if it's not taken down willingly,

00:09:16.980 well, his government's plans are to force Twitter to take tweets down that they don't like in 24 hours or less,

00:09:22.980 or pay massive fines.

00:09:23.980 It's weird to see police and politicians and rival media all using identical language

00:09:29.980 and speaking as a team, as a we, first-person plural, because they are a team.

00:09:33.980 They're all on the same payroll, for one thing.

00:09:36.980 It's weird that they're all demanding that a truth-teller shut up.

00:09:39.980 It's weird that they're a team about it, but it's notable that the truth-teller was foreign,

00:09:44.980 someone who didn't take cash from Trudeau's media bailout,

00:09:47.980 and someone who doesn't have to suck up to Liberal MPs for their job.

00:09:51.980 I think that's telling.

00:09:52.980 It's so funny, though, that, I mean, we've all seen the photographs of the guns drawn at the truckers,

00:09:56.980 and yet all those Liberal MPs and all those other reporters, their lies are still up there.

00:10:02.980 But back to today's Access to Information story, our exclusive.

00:10:05.980 Remember, the police went full Vladimir Putin,

00:10:08.980 seizing bank accounts of political enemies, riot police arresting peaceful protesters.

00:10:13.980 I mean, seriously, the kind of things we condemn Putin for doing,

00:10:17.980 Trudeau did with the full support of the Canadian media party.

00:10:22.980 But this moment here was just shocking.

00:10:24.980 Remember this?

00:10:25.980 Oh, come on through.

00:10:27.980 Come on through.

00:10:28.980 What is happening here?

00:10:30.980 Wow!

00:10:31.980 What is this lady doing? 1.00

00:10:32.980 Trampling.

00:10:33.980 Trampling horses.

00:10:34.980 Stop it! 0.99

00:10:35.980 Stop it! 0.99

00:10:36.980 Stop it! 0.99

00:10:37.980 What?!

00:10:38.980 Oh my God!

00:10:39.980 Oh my God!

00:10:40.980 What the hell is that?! 0.85

00:10:41.980 Fuck down! 1.00

00:10:43.980 They just trampled this lady. 1.00

00:10:44.980 Stop it! 0.99

00:10:45.980 They just trampled that lady. 1.00

00:10:47.980 Stop it! 0.99

00:10:48.980 They just fully trampled that lady. 1.00

00:10:50.980 Hey! 0.99

00:10:51.980 They just fully trampled that lady. 1.00

00:10:53.980 Hey! 0.99

00:10:54.980 Hey! 0.99

00:10:55.980 Oh! 0.60

00:10:56.980 Here's the lady. 1.00

00:10:57.980 Don't get embarrassed!

00:10:58.980 Here's the lady that was trampled. 1.00

00:11:00.980 That's incredible to see, to stomp on, to ride your horse right into civilians like that, 1.00

00:11:06.980 including someone in a wheelchair.

00:11:09.980 I think the person was in a wheelchair or a walker.

00:11:11.980 A walker, sorry.

00:11:12.980 Had to be rushed to the hospital.

00:11:13.980 Just shocking.

00:11:14.980 There was violence at the protest from the police.

00:11:18.980 There were guns at the protest from the police.

00:11:21.980 There were blockades by the police.

00:11:24.980 There was a violation of human rights by the police.

00:11:27.980 And that's when the big story leaked that we're talking about today.

00:11:32.980 Remember this one?

00:11:33.980 The story of police living the high life of the Chateau Laurier, the most luxury hotel,

00:11:38.980 most luxurious hotel in all of Ottawa.

00:11:40.980 And so these cops were there and they set up this WhatsApp chat group showing them living

00:11:45.980 the high life of the Chateau Laurier, but amongst their bragging about how high off the

00:11:51.980 hog they were living because of taxpayers, they were laughing at that lady who was stomped 1.00

00:11:56.980 on by the horse, knocked over, bragging about how much pain they wanted to inflict on peaceful

00:12:01.980 protesters, laughing at the protesters and talking about what they do to them. 0.96

00:12:05.980 So abusive, so gross.

00:12:08.980 And that's where our access to information document comes in.

00:12:10.980 This was a national scandal, an international scandal actually.

00:12:14.980 I did a thread of tweets on the subject that was seen almost 5 million times a couple months

00:12:23.980 ago.

00:12:24.980 It was so atrocious people were shocked.

00:12:26.980 No one could defend it.

00:12:27.980 No one tried.

00:12:28.980 The most I heard was people simply trying to cope by saying those are fake photos.

00:12:33.980 No, they weren't the, they were real as the RCMP grudgingly admitted.

00:12:37.980 So what's so gross is that the Mounties who were the most vicious were the horsey ride

00:12:44.980 Mounties. 0.85

00:12:45.980 Sure.

00:12:46.980 I mean, they do some real police work, but they're the PR side of the Mounties.

00:12:49.980 They're the ones who are tasked with building strong relationships with people in the community.

00:12:53.980 I guess those were the ones who really daydreamed about cracking some skulls instead of just

00:12:58.980 making horses trot in a pretty way.

00:13:00.980 This, so this was huge.

00:13:02.980 And as we often do, we, we make an access to information request and we just got it today.

00:13:07.980 165 pages to be precise.

00:13:10.980 You can see the whole document for yourself under this video.

00:13:12.980 We'll have a link to it.

00:13:14.980 Um, we asked for the RCMP's internal communications about this matter.

00:13:18.980 There were dozens of police, um, involved, uh, in discussing it in the damage control.

00:13:27.980 Uh, take a look here.

00:13:28.980 There is discussion happening at senior levels on this at all ranks, all the way up to the

00:13:33.980 commissioner.

00:13:34.980 They were all involved.

00:13:35.980 Boy, they had a lot to say, 165 pages, but none of it was about how the police who engaged

00:13:44.980 engaged in abuse of conduct and then condoned abuse of conduct.

00:13:48.980 None of it was about how stomping or shooting peaceful protestors was on Canadian or contrary

00:13:52.980 to the Mounties traditions or even the laws and rules.

00:13:55.980 None of it was even just about how evil it was for the police to rejoice in the pain and

00:14:00.980 suffering of peaceful citizens who were brutalized.

00:14:02.980 There's not a word about that.

00:14:04.980 See for yourself.

00:14:05.980 If you read the 165 pages, you'll see that they cared about only one thing.

00:14:09.980 Covering it up, getting reporters to not cover the story, downplaying the story, going through

00:14:16.980 their social media pages and deleting past posts where those brutal Mounties were celebrated

00:14:22.980 in some way as some sort of heroes.

00:14:25.980 The whole thing was not about fixing the actual problems.

00:14:28.980 It was about fixing the media perception of the problems.

00:14:31.980 The RCMP were not sorry for what their police did.

00:14:34.980 They were only sorry they got caught.

00:14:40.980 You can see here, for example, that they were riveted, obviously, by obsessed with tracking

00:14:47.980 what we at Rebel News were reporting on this subject.

00:14:50.980 It's a bit creepy how much police resources are spent tracking Rebel News and me in particular.

00:14:56.980 No wonder they shot Alexa. 0.91

00:14:58.980 They hate us.

00:14:59.980 They saw her close.

00:15:00.980 They pulled the trigger.

00:15:01.980 They're obsessed with us, just like Trudeau is.

00:15:04.980 They know they're supposed to track us.

00:15:06.980 They're supposed to do what their boss says.

00:15:08.980 Look at the damage control.

00:15:11.980 The first move was to pull down photos of those particular dirty cops from any RCMP websites

00:15:17.980 to people who couldn't, so people couldn't learn more about the bad apples in the force.

00:15:22.980 They were literally purging names of the cruel cops.

00:15:25.980 They were talking about the ones who were laughing about hurting people.

00:15:28.980 They were just pulling down any time they championed these people.

00:15:34.980 Even this.

00:15:35.980 Take a look at this.

00:15:36.980 What do people impacted by mental illness look like?

00:15:40.980 Like all of us.

00:15:43.980 Mental health affects us all.

00:15:46.980 Join the conversation.

00:15:49.980 They even ordered their social media team to delete a Bell Let's Talk mental health video,

00:15:56.980 because you can see there was one Mountie in the video there who engaged in this cruelty.

00:16:01.980 If he had mental health issues, I'd feel bad for him, and I wish him well.

00:16:05.980 But if he's delighting in cruelty and cheering on police brutality and torture,

00:16:12.980 maybe he's still got a few psychological issues left.

00:16:16.980 Maybe deleting a video for bad PR isn't enough.

00:16:19.980 Maybe he should be assessed on whether his personality and temperament are indeed a fit for the RCMP.

00:16:25.980 You're giving that guy a gun?

00:16:27.980 Yeah, not so sure about the wisdom of that, mate.

00:16:30.980 But look at this.

00:16:32.980 The spin doctor specifically wanted to cut out any suggestion of investigations of the officers involved from any of their statements.

00:16:40.980 Stop and think about that.

00:16:42.980 I've been talking about PR and spin and cover ups, and I suppose that's what communications staff do.

00:16:49.980 But what about the actual problem here?

00:16:51.980 Cruel police breaking the law and abusing innocent peaceful protesters,

00:16:56.980 and then other cruel police celebrating that, whipping each other up, humiliating the public.

00:17:02.980 Isn't having rogue cops like this a bit of a ticking time bomb?

00:17:07.980 I mean, shouldn't there be some sort of investigation?

00:17:10.980 No, no, no, not at all.

00:17:12.980 And don't even say it.

00:17:13.980 I mean, look, they were just following orders, right?

00:17:15.980 They were just, well, frankly, they weren't saying anything that Justin Trudeau hadn't already said, right?

00:17:21.980 I mean, should the police even tolerate these people?

00:17:24.980 Oui, on va s'en sortir de cette pandémie par la vaccination.

00:17:29.980 Puis on en connaît tous des gens qui sont en train d'hésiter un petit peu.

00:17:33.980 On va continuer d'essayer de les convaincre.

00:17:35.980 Mais il y a aussi des gens qui sont farouchement opposés à la vaccination.

00:17:38.980 Qui sont extrémistes.

00:17:39.980 Qui croient pas dans la science, qui sont souvent misogynes, souvent racistes aussi.

00:17:44.980 C'est un petit groupe, mais qui prend de la place.

00:17:49.980 Et là, il faut faire un choix en tant que leader, en tant que pays.

00:17:53.980 Est-ce qu'on tolère ces gens-là? 0.86

00:17:55.980 Ou est-ce qu'on dit, bien, voyons, la plupart des gens, presque 80% des Québécois, ont fait ce qu'ils allaient faire.

00:18:01.980 Se sont fait vacciner.

00:18:02.980 On veut revenir aux choses qu'on aime faire. 0.64

00:18:05.980 C'est pas ces gens-là qui vont nous bloquer, mettons.

00:18:08.980 En fait, the real victims here weren't the police, sorry, weren't the people who were shot, weren't the people who were stomped on or tear gassed.

00:18:17.980 You see, the real victims here were the police themselves.

00:18:20.980 They're the victims.

00:18:21.980 Twelve of the police said that they were, quote, feeling threatened, paranoid, and demonstrating anxiously-like symptomology because their cruelty was exposed to the public.

00:18:32.980 Okay, I get it.

00:18:33.980 So, you stomp on people, you shoot people, you gas people.

00:18:37.980 Then, as a crew, you hang out at the Chateau Laurier and you laugh at people, you mock them, you threaten them some more.

00:18:44.980 And when this is revealed to the public, when this is leaked at how cruel you are, you pose as the victims?

00:18:51.980 You're the ones who need protection?

00:18:54.980 Protection from whom?

00:18:55.980 The unarmed peaceful protestors?

00:18:57.980 You're the anxious ones? 0.95

00:18:59.980 You know, maybe they really are mentally unstable and should be put on leave.

00:19:03.980 If you lack the courage to investigate and prosecute these cops, well, how about play their game?

00:19:09.980 I mean, if they really are unstable and anxious now, put them on some sort of long-term health leave.

00:19:14.980 Whatever it takes to get these thugs out of the force.

00:19:16.980 I mean, people have no idea how bad it was for these cops.

00:19:21.980 Oh, my God.

00:19:23.980 For example, there was a Facebook page with insults.

00:19:27.980 With insults.

00:19:29.980 How dare the public respond with insults on Facebook?

00:19:34.980 Can we get that censored?

00:19:37.980 Now, there was one cop that they all thought should be investigated. 0.97

00:19:42.980 The dirty rat who snitched on them and leaked these photos.

00:19:47.980 This could suggest that a member of this chat is sending screenshots to. 0.96

00:19:51.980 They want to know who's blowing the whistle.

00:19:54.980 He should be punished.

00:19:55.980 Not the cruel ones. 0.72

00:19:57.980 The one who blew the whistle.

00:19:59.980 Now, the media team at the RCMP don't care about anything other than mopping this mess up.

00:20:04.980 As they said, it's super bad.

00:20:09.980 Now, let me pause for a moment.

00:20:12.980 Is any of this news?

00:20:13.980 Is anything in this access to information document news?

00:20:16.980 Well, I sure think so.

00:20:17.980 They say it's nuts.

00:20:20.980 Maybe it is.

00:20:21.980 Watching the RCMP race to delete any trace of their cops who cheered on police brutality,

00:20:27.980 but refusing to investigate those same people, their obsession with the rebel news.

00:20:32.980 I think that's a story.

00:20:34.980 But it's the secondary story.

00:20:36.980 The main story is what happened in the first place two months ago.

00:20:40.980 But that's what all these documents are reacting to.

00:20:43.980 That's what they're chattering about.

00:20:45.980 The main story is the police abuses in Ottawa.

00:20:48.980 And then the police celebrating the abuses in the Chateau Laurier.

00:20:52.980 That's the scariest part of this access to information document.

00:20:55.980 One hundred and sixty five pages of media scans and damage control.

00:20:59.980 And you know what is clear to me?

00:21:02.980 The mainstream media is nowhere to be found.

00:21:05.980 Not one story on the CBC to this day.

00:21:09.980 I checked to this day.

00:21:12.980 The CBC has never done a story on that RCMP WhatsApp group cheering on police brutality

00:21:17.980 from the luxury of the Chateau Laurier.

00:21:19.980 The CBC hates cops most of the time.

00:21:22.980 They love finding sexism or racism or violence in the police.

00:21:26.980 They hate police brutality. 0.96

00:21:27.980 Except when it's in the service of Justin Trudeau and against those awful, awful truckers.

00:21:32.980 Then the CBC likes police brutality.

00:21:34.980 So not a single story by the CBC about that RCMP WhatsApp group.

00:21:38.980 It literally had millions of views of rebel news alone.

00:21:43.980 Millions, probably ten million altogether.

00:21:45.980 It was huge news.

00:21:46.980 It was international news.

00:21:47.980 The RCMP's own internal notes say it was international news.

00:21:50.980 I think it's news, but not news enough for the CBC or any other Canadian bailout media to report on.

00:21:57.980 If you sift through the hundred and sixty five pages, you'll see me and Rebel News and you'll see our alumnus,

00:22:03.980 Kian Bexty, and you'll see our friends at True North, Andrew Lawton in Cosmin, Georgia.

00:22:08.980 You'll even see Rupa Subramania and give them credit.

00:22:13.980 The National Post has her writing for them at least once a week.

00:22:16.980 But that's it.

00:22:18.980 The only mainstream media item I noticed in the hundred and sixty five pages was CTV complaining about how the media were being treated by the truckers and demanding that the RCMP investigate the truckers.

00:22:33.980 That's the only role CTV had. 0.95

00:22:35.980 So if it were not for the independent media, the story would have gone nowhere.

00:22:40.980 No one would have heard about it.

00:22:42.980 Would have been as if it didn't happen.

00:22:44.980 There was one inquiry by a mainstream journalist, an anti trucker, sort of emotional extremist named Justin Ling, who is occasionally published in newspapers as a freelancer.

00:22:56.980 So he saw these horrific leaked WhatsApp pictures.

00:22:59.980 But look at this.

00:23:01.980 This was shut down overnight by an intermediate, sorry, by an immediate reply to Justin Ling.

00:23:08.980 Thanks, Camille.

00:23:09.980 What?

00:23:11.980 That's how it took?

00:23:12.980 That's how it took a quick and flattering phone call to Justin Ling to make him feel important and listened to.

00:23:18.980 And he was happy to drop the story in return.

00:23:21.980 He covered the story.

00:23:22.980 All right.

00:23:23.980 Covered it with a pillow until it stopped breathing.

00:23:26.980 They would have shut this story down completely if we're if it were only up to the media party, Trudeau's media, the bailout media, the official narrative media.

00:23:34.980 I mean, the pesky New York Times reporting on the armed raids on truckers and they were furious.

00:23:40.980 And we and True North and a few others broke the cartel of silence here.

00:23:44.980 You can read the entire access to information document on our website.

00:23:47.980 You know, it's funny.

00:23:49.980 This morning I told the team, let's get this so quick before anyone else does.

00:23:53.980 Yeah, no, no one else.

00:23:55.980 No one else will.

00:23:57.980 They're on the other side.

00:23:59.980 They're on the other team.

00:24:00.980 They're on the government team.

00:24:03.980 Now, do you see why Trudeau is so obsessed with censoring?

00:24:07.980 Stay with us.

00:24:09.980 Well, maybe it's because people have been cooped up for two years.

00:24:23.980 Maybe it's because people haven't had a chance to talk back to two years.

00:24:28.980 Or maybe it's because the man himself.

00:24:30.980 But whatever the reason, Pierre Pauly of candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada is drawing enormous crowds.

00:24:37.980 There was one crowd in the city of Calgary, which, granted, is a conservative city.

00:24:41.980 There were over 6,000 people who came out to see him.

00:24:45.980 And he's just an MP.

00:24:46.980 He has not yet won the leadership.

00:24:48.980 Now, he may well do that.

00:24:49.980 But for 6,000 people, he's had crowds over 1,000 in many places.

00:24:55.980 He sold out a brewery event space in Toronto, the Steam Whistle Brewery.

00:25:01.980 It was such an impressive night.

00:25:03.980 The brewery was ashamed of being associated with him.

00:25:08.980 So many people thought that they made him look great.

00:25:10.980 They put out a statement distancing themselves from him, which was really bizarre.

00:25:14.980 But that's what's happening.

00:25:15.980 Pierre Pauly of is, well, he looks like a threat.

00:25:19.980 And whereas Maxime Bernier, the leader of the People's Party of Canada, could draw crowds.

00:25:23.980 Well, everyone knows the PPC does not have any seats in Parliament, including Bernier himself.

00:25:29.980 So if someone who could be the next leader of the Conservative Party, who is already sitting MP,

00:25:35.980 is drawing thousands of, cumulatively, tens of thousands of people, well, maybe he's a real threat.

00:25:44.980 Well, look at this article in the National Post by our friend Rupa Supramanya.

00:25:48.980 Headline is, Smearing Pierre Pauly of because many of those at his rallies are white is racist itself.

00:25:56.980 And you might think that's opposite.

00:25:58.980 But that has been the agreed upon counterpoint by the establishment meeting.

00:26:03.980 And joining us now via Skype is our friend Rupa Supramanya.

00:26:07.980 Great to see you again, Rupa.

00:26:09.980 It's so weird.

00:26:10.980 I think that Pierre's wife is a visible minority.

00:26:14.980 And I don't even want to make a fuss about it.

00:26:16.980 I just to say that he's a racist or they're not even saying that.

00:26:21.980 They're just saying too many white people are there, which I don't even know what the point there is. 0.65

00:26:25.980 Like, are you saying a white person equals racism?

00:26:28.980 You can't say that Pierre is racist.

00:26:31.980 Pierre Pauly of, I don't think he is.

00:26:33.980 His wife, I think, is a visible minority. 0.76

00:26:35.980 It's just so, so lame. 0.90

00:26:38.980 It's so many degrees of separation from calling him racist.

00:26:41.980 I guess that's the go-to line, though, isn't it?

00:26:43.980 It's weird.

00:26:44.980 It is because, you know, they've been, you know, attacking him, you know, on various fronts.

00:26:51.980 So they've been comparing him to Marine Le Pen, that he's a far right white supremacist and so on and so forth.

00:27:00.980 But, you know, they always go to this old chestnut, as I like to call it, which is, you know, who are the people showing up at Pierre's events?

00:27:12.980 And I was struck by this one comment by journalist Stephen Marr, who tweeted, you know, it's a whole lot of white people.

00:27:19.980 If I was Poitlevres, I would be wondering why I'm only attracting white people. 0.82

00:27:25.980 And this reminded me of when the Freedom Convoy was in town in Ottawa, and that was the accusation that was made against them, that these are mostly white people, these are white people's issues.

00:27:37.980 And so they're not representative of, you know, mainstream Canadian opinion or what would be deemed as being acceptable.

00:27:50.980 And so, you know, it's unfortunate.

00:27:56.980 I don't even know why race even makes an appearance when, you know, there's a lot that you can criticize here.

00:28:05.980 You know, you can look at what Pierre has been saying.

00:28:08.980 You can criticize some of its policies.

00:28:10.980 There's a lot there that one could pick apart.

00:28:14.980 But for some reason, the fact that the people showing up at his rallies are mostly white people seems to be an issue for some.

00:28:23.980 Because for them, if you don't have a certain diversity quotient at these events, they're not seen as legitimate or acceptable.

00:28:35.980 And that's unfortunate.

00:28:37.980 Yeah, it's really weird.

00:28:39.980 I mean, first of all, I don't know the stats for every place, but Canada is still a majority white country.

00:28:45.980 Now, there are some cities or regions where it's majority minority parts of Toronto, parts of Vancouver, et cetera.

00:28:51.980 But I mean, I just don't even think it's factually true that his events are overwhelmingly white.

00:28:58.980 I know he had an event on an Indian reserve.

00:29:00.980 I know he had a Sikh event.

00:29:02.980 He's doing events in a variety of places.

00:29:04.980 And I see a diversity.

00:29:06.980 I think that it's I think it shows a lack of other things to throw at him.

00:29:14.980 Exactly.

00:29:15.980 Their attempt to compare him to Marine Le Pen.

00:29:17.980 I can't think of any similarities biographically, policy wise.

00:29:24.980 The issues in France are so different than the issues in Canada.

00:29:28.980 I just try. 0.97

00:29:29.980 I mean, other than just trying to be dramatic, comparing him to Trump maybe feels old and ridiculous. 0.67

00:29:34.980 Trump's a 70 something year old man with his who's I think he's a very comedic guy and he's got an entertainer's flair. 0.57

00:29:42.980 Pierre is sort of the opposite.

00:29:43.980 Pierre is very I'm not going to say rehearsed, but he feels like he's very tightly scripted, very disciplined.

00:29:51.980 What made Trump sort of fun and unpredictable was precisely the fact that you never know what you get with him.

00:29:58.980 With Pierre Polyev, you've been getting the same thing from him for 20 years.

00:30:02.980 Just maybe that's why the Trump comparison doesn't work or maybe because it looks just so laughable.

00:30:07.980 Yeah.

00:30:08.980 But you're a Marine Le Pen guy who gets white people to show out. 0.73

00:30:12.980 Boy, that feels weak.

00:30:14.980 It does.

00:30:15.980 And that really speaks to the fact that they really have nothing substantial to say, really, because, you know, it's reaching at this point.

00:30:26.980 And absolutely, you know, 70 percent of this country is white.

00:30:33.980 And, you know, let's face it, you know, a lot of people that live in semi urban and rural parts of Canada are mostly white.

00:30:43.980 And I would say that that, you know, most most people who've been the losers from globalization and from, you know, where the pandemic is really hard.

00:30:53.980 These are people who live in these areas and they happen to be mostly white.

00:30:57.980 So, you know, if they're showing up at his events because something, you know, because what he's saying resonates with them, what what is what is the crime in that?

00:31:09.980 You know, why why is it why is it why is it such a big deal?

00:31:14.980 And also, Ezra, you know, I'd like to say that, you know, a lot of people reacting to my piece and Mars piece, you know, tended to be very defensive.

00:31:24.980 You know, I don't think white people should be defensive of the fact that many people showing up at these rallies are white.

00:31:31.980 And I agree with you. Not all of these rallies are like this.

00:31:34.980 I think Pierre, you know, I suspect he has a wide appeal.

00:31:40.980 I think people from various backgrounds across many different ethnic backgrounds probably support him.

00:31:49.980 But but, you know, I just don't think white people should be defensive.

00:31:53.980 Yeah. I mean, I'm just thinking of one of the fun events that Pierre Polyev did was he was at a falafel restaurant and he made a purchase using Bitcoin.

00:32:05.980 And it was an Arab owned restaurant, which a lot of large Arab community in the greater Ottawa area.

00:32:12.980 And it was just sort of fun and natural. And they weren't emphasizing any ethnicity.

00:32:15.980 The emphasis was actually on this really cool Bitcoin app that lets you buy food in a restaurant with Bitcoin.

00:32:23.980 And I don't know, I didn't I didn't I didn't emphasize in my mind that it was an Arab restaurant.

00:32:29.980 I thought, well, that's a Bitcoin thing. I just don't think that Pierre is animated by issues of race and culture as much.

00:32:37.980 He's more an economics guy, a finance guy. He does have something to say about housing prices.

00:32:42.980 Yeah. And I think that is driven in part by immigration.

00:32:45.980 But he's never really like he's always been on the dollars and cents side of things.

00:32:50.980 And I think so. He's like there are some more cultural warriors, folks who might be a little more divisive.

00:32:56.980 I just haven't. And I've been following Pierre Polyev for 20 years. I just don't. That's just not him.

00:33:02.980 I mean, Jason Kenney was a real culture warrior. And and there are some in the party who are.

00:33:07.980 I just don't think Pierre Polyev is. I think they're workshopping.

00:33:10.980 They're trying out attack angles. Stephen Maher is famous for that.

00:33:14.980 So far, they haven't found one yet.

00:33:18.980 Yeah. See, what does it matter what color the people are, you know, who are coming to his rallies?

00:33:23.980 That's the fundamental. That's my question. You know, why why does that matter to you?

00:33:28.980 And I think there's this peculiar affirmative action idea that something is only acceptable.

00:33:33.980 Something is only legitimate in Canada if minorities are over overrepresented. 0.83

00:33:39.980 But here's the thing. Our system doesn't work that way. Our system is one person, one vote.

00:33:45.980 And it doesn't matter what the color of that person is, what their ethnicity is, what they had for breakfast.

00:33:50.980 It just doesn't matter. And I think Pierre is, you know, he's he knows what he's doing.

00:33:58.980 He has to maximize his odds of winning. That's how these leadership campaigns work.

00:34:04.980 And honestly, you know, this fixation on race, it's a kind of woke apartheid, you know, where we have to parse the demographic makeup of people showing up at these events to see to see if the support is legitimate.

00:34:19.980 Yeah. And it's also a bit weird coming from Stephen Maher, who's so white, he's pink.

00:34:24.980 I mean, a lot of these critics, I mean, if you look at the board of directors of half the media companies.

00:34:31.980 And again, I don't have a problem with white people. I think I'm whiter.

00:34:35.980 I'm, you know, I don't know. Jews are considered white. But like if you're going to make that an issue, it's typically people who themselves, if if they were really adamant in minority representation, they would have to quit because they're typically liberal white men.

00:34:50.980 I don't know. I think part of it is that white people, straight people, you know, people who don't tick some box for affirmative action.

00:34:59.980 I think some of them are just sort of getting a little tired of being demonized for no reason at all because they're not racist.

00:35:05.980 They've done nothing right. It's like Rex Murphy when he defended Canada.

00:35:08.980 He said, sure, there's problems, but no country in the world is more bend over backwards.

00:35:13.980 This multiculturalism, immigration and the rage directed at him for saying these things like it's it's a little crazy.

00:35:22.980 And I think the reason that was a popular column for Rex is because a lot of white guys and older white guys said, yeah, I have no beef with minorities.

00:35:31.980 And why are you saying I'm a racist? And I'm sort of sick of, you know, I don't want to be superior to anyone, but neither do I want to be demonized.

00:35:39.980 And I think it's a sign that wokeness is overplayed at its hand.

00:35:43.980 I don't know. I think it's interesting. It'll be fascinating to see if Pierre really does pull ahead as the front runner.

00:35:50.980 He'll start to shift his campaign from running against John Charest and running against Patrick Brown towards running against Justin Trudeau.

00:36:00.980 Like it may it may get to the point where he's just all right, let's skip to the end.

00:36:05.980 It's a final battle between me and Trudeau.

00:36:07.980 I don't think Trudeau is going to have the same luck going after Pierre Polyev, who's younger than Trudeau, who who's smarter or at least better briefed on policy, who hasn't shown a lack of judgment in blackface or groping that reporter Rose Knight.

00:36:24.980 I think that Pierre Polyev could be the Trudeau beater. Last word to you.

00:36:29.980 I think so, too. I think I think they fear him so much that this is a sign of desperation that they have to resort to these kinds of attacks.

00:36:39.980 And they, you know, his opponents really have his opponents within within the Conservative Party and and outside don't really have anything substantial to say.

00:36:51.980 And this is what this is what they've they're reaching for, that he's a populist, that he's like Trump or that he represents the interests of white supremacists.

00:37:01.980 And that's where we are. And but but I think Pierre is is going to surprise us all.

00:37:07.980 Yeah. Well, I think he already is. And that's that's what's got these folks sort of spooked.

00:37:12.980 Yeah, it's great to see Rupa. I always read your column in the National Post and I look forward to every week.

00:37:17.980 It's great to see you again. Have a good weekend and keep keep your eye on this.

00:37:21.980 I think that's, you know, and getting back to the truckers, just a final thought.

00:37:26.980 I think we have to credit the truckers for the defenestration of Aaron O'Toole.

00:37:31.980 I don't think he was set to be turf from the party until his mishandling of that sort of blew up.

00:37:38.980 And the truckers allowed the party to have a renewal.

00:37:41.980 And Pierre Polyev, who I wished had run last time, stepped up.

00:37:45.980 Who knows? Maybe those truckers not only inspired us back in February to stand up and be free, but maybe they set in motion a complicated chain of events that might actually lead to a to a different election result in a couple years.

00:37:58.980 Very interesting times. And I look forward to talking about it.

00:38:01.980 My first tweet reacting to the protests was that the protests are going to change the political landscape of Canada.

00:38:07.980 And that's exactly what is happening right now.

00:38:10.980 Yeah, you're so right. Rupa Subramania, keep it up. You're doing great. Nice to see you again.

00:38:15.980 Thank you. Thank you. Thanks, Ezra.

00:38:17.980 My pleasure. All right. Stay with us. Your letters to me next.

00:38:20.980 Hey, welcome back. Your mail to me. Ghetto Trout 2011 says,

00:38:37.980 I'm kind of blown away that Microsoft is taking any stance on this.

00:38:41.980 The only fiscally responsible option to respond to this would be to shut off Canada entirely.

00:38:46.980 That's a terrifying thought. Well, I got to tell you, I just skim the surface, scratched the surface in that document.

00:38:53.980 And I haven't checked our website, but I think we posted the whole thing online.

00:38:58.980 TikTok, Pinterest, Facebook, Google, like every big social media company and some little ones had some very thoughtful and very well researched and well expressed responses.

00:39:14.980 Lots of professors did, too. Lots of legal aid organizations, including some that have been hibernating the last two years.

00:39:22.980 You even had racial minority groups saying, hey, this could hurt us because of them.

00:39:26.980 And for example, I'm giving you an example. And you can agree with it or not, but I'm going to give you an example of an objector.

00:39:33.980 And there was a lobby group for for prostitutes, a sex work something something group. I forget the name of it.

00:39:39.980 And they said that this kind of preemptive takedown could target our people if they're talking about sexuality or whatever.

00:39:49.980 And and the National Council of Canadian Muslims, I don't have a lot of time for them, but they were saying that this could target them as if it's overbroad targeting them as terrorists.

00:40:00.980 And then there were other groups. There was a there was a black advocacy group.

00:40:04.980 And and one of the arguments was, you know, there's some offensive words like the N word that can be one of the most hurtful, hateful words around.

00:40:16.980 But if it's used in another way, including by a black person, it can actually be sort of empowering and taking the word back.

00:40:22.980 Same thing with a lot of gay words. It can be used as an epithet against a gay person or could be used like to to to come up with massive algorithms to ban certain words.

00:40:37.980 It's dystopian. It's anti free. But these groups I've just mentioned, they're saying this is going to hurt us.

00:40:44.980 You're claiming you're going to help us. But your new anti hate speech algorithms that have to be resolved in 24 hours, they're going to silence us.

00:40:53.980 And it's true. Whatever your thoughts are on the different groups I've just listed.

00:40:57.980 They're all against this censorship because they just think it's the dumbest thing they ever heard.

00:41:01.980 It's it's really a remarkable document.

00:41:04.980 And to see tick tock and Microsoft and Google and Twitter, I mean, tick tock was a little bit weak, but but there was some amazing stuff in there.

00:41:12.980 And I think it was it's quite remarkable that the government tried to hide these because it's so overwhelmingly negative.

00:41:23.980 And they said, oh, we had some criticism. No, no, no. You were scorched. You were scorched.

00:41:30.980 Yeah. If you have time, look through the document.

00:41:34.980 H Dragon Girl says, you are not boring us whatsoever.

00:41:37.980 Thank you for showing us the reactions to Trudeau's ridiculous proposed legislation and antics.

00:41:42.980 Thank you. And I knew I wasn't boring. But the thing is, how much of a lawyer's letter do you want to read?

00:41:47.980 I just wanted to show you how interesting it was to see companies that I I mean, I don't have a lot of time for these companies.

00:41:54.980 I I think many of them are monopolistic. Many of them are woke.

00:41:57.980 But Twitter's especially that was a bold, bold letter.

00:42:02.980 And I think Twitter knows that it is the one that Trudeau hates the most.

00:42:06.980 I think it actually is the freest of the social media.

00:42:09.980 And I credit Jack Dorsey for that.

00:42:12.980 If Elon Musk takes it over, it'll be even freer.

00:42:15.980 Rob Charters says, funny, the mosque down the street was open 24 seven with lines up two blocks every day during the entire pandemic.

00:42:23.980 Never saw the police show up. Well, I confirmed with Sheila that this church hunter killer squad that Jason Kenney set up only went to churches.

00:42:32.980 Didn't go to mosques or Jewish synagogues or Sikh temples.

00:42:35.980 Just went to churches.

00:42:36.980 It's so weird, especially given that Jason Kenney himself used to be such a Christian rights activist.

00:42:41.980 It's crazy.

00:42:43.980 What a week for news, eh?

00:42:45.980 I'm sure next week will be even busier.

00:42:47.980 That's it for now.

00:42:48.980 But let me leave you with our video of the day by Lincoln Jay, who asked folks on the street, should Canada drop vaccine mandates for air travel?

00:42:56.980 And Torontonians react to him.

00:42:58.980 Until Monday, we'll keep watching our videos.

00:43:00.980 We don't stop on the weekends.

00:43:01.980 I just take a break on my show, but we keep pumping out the vids.

00:43:05.980 I'll see you on Monday.

00:43:06.980 Until then, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night.

00:43:10.980 Keep fighting for freedom, and here's Lincoln's vid.

00:43:26.980 Lincoln Jay for Rebel News here in Kensington Market in downtown Toronto.

00:43:30.980 Now, with countries all across the world starting to lift their vaccine mandates for air travel,

00:43:35.980 I want to know, when is Canada going to lift their mandates?

00:43:39.980 Are they going to lift the mandates?

00:43:40.980 It just seems like Canada is a step behind of other countries when it comes to lifting restrictions, easing mandates.

00:43:47.980 We just saw Air New Zealand just removed their mandate for air travel.

00:43:51.980 So, we're seeing all these countries slowly moving their mandates.

00:43:56.980 Why is Canada not doing the same?

00:43:58.980 I mean, right across the border in America, on the same land that I'm standing on right now,

00:44:03.980 you can go on a plane, no vaccine requirements.

00:44:06.980 Now, you don't even have to wear a mask on those planes.

00:44:09.980 Yes, I understand things are starting to look better in Canada.

00:44:13.980 Almost all the mask mandates are dropped.

00:44:15.980 Almost all businesses are back to full capacity.

00:44:18.980 But the reality is, there's many Canadians who are not able to simply board a flight and leave this country.

00:44:26.980 I mean, when you really start to look into the matter, you see that this might not make that much sense.

00:44:31.980 I could literally get on a bus right now in Toronto, take it to Montreal, and they will not check my COVID-19 vaccination status at all.

00:44:40.980 But if I were to try to take that same trip on a flight from Toronto to Montreal, I may not be allowed to board it depending on my vaccination status.

00:44:49.980 So, I'm here in Kensington Market, I want to find out what some of the people here in Toronto think about this.

00:44:54.980 Is the government going to remove the mandates anytime soon?

00:44:56.980 Just get their overall opinions and ask, does this make sense to them?

00:45:00.980 Let's check it out.

00:45:01.980 So, right now you need two doses to get on, two vaccine doses to get on a plane.

00:45:15.980 Do you think the Canadian federal government has any plans to lift that?

00:45:19.980 What are your thoughts on that situation?

00:45:20.980 I don't think they have any plans to lift that, and I think COVID is still a very real concern, and I think that we're still in a very precarious situation.

00:45:30.980 So, I don't think that the government has any plans to ease those mandates, and as it stands, requiring two COVID vaccines has been proven to reduce the effects of the COVID virus in a lot of cases.

00:45:42.980 I think they do eventually, they're going to feel the pressure and they're going to lift it.

00:45:46.980 It's not going to change anytime soon, I think.

00:45:49.980 You know, like they want to just give us a bit of freedom, and then so that people just get all excited, and then soon it's going to just get back to the mess, you know?

00:45:59.980 I don't think it's coming anytime soon.

00:46:01.980 I think it's maybe going to be six months to another year until this turns into an endemic, not a pandemic.

00:46:07.980 So, I think it's going to be like that for a while.

00:46:09.980 Knowing Canada, it's one of the strictest countries with regards to the COVID laws, and I don't think they're going to actually ease the restrictions that quick.

00:46:22.980 I don't know, but I do think that they might remove it soon, especially because I think the travel regulations have been changing quite quickly.

00:46:32.980 I definitely think it's a little taste of freedom, but what's the state right now? Can you travel if you're not vaxxed? No, you can't, right? So, I don't know. I want to be hopeful. Is it realistic? I don't know.

00:46:47.980 Hopefully, they have plans to scrap that shit, yo, because I pay a fuck with that, you know? 1.00

00:46:53.980 Why do you think that other countries are dealing with COVID in other ways? 1.00

00:46:57.980 They're kind of moving past it. Like, the U.S. just dropped their mask mandate, so you don't need a vaccine or a mask.

00:47:03.980 Why is Canada taking a different approach?

00:47:05.980 Health care system is very different down in the States than it is here.

00:47:08.980 Honestly, I'm trying not to think about it too much.

00:47:10.980 I just hope that we can make some better decisions, and ultimately, I think it's all of our faults,

00:47:16.980 because we've got to vote better authorities into, I don't, you know, I'm not an anarchist by any means.

00:47:21.980 I just think we have to vote better decision-makers into Parliament.

00:47:26.980 I can't tell you. I think that there are political, like we have an election coming up,

00:47:31.980 which I think holds a lot of weight. Personally, I think masks should be allowed on planes,

00:47:35.980 or should still, the mask mandate should still be in effect on planes. But I can't tell you.

00:47:42.980 I have no idea, actually, but I think it's a different style of governance, and also, I don't know,

00:47:50.980 I think Canadians, or like the Canadian government is just so strict with laws, and don't see the other point of view of it.

00:47:57.980 I have decided to not keep up with the news, because it's no longer my interest, because it's been wishy-washy, right?

00:48:04.980 Like, when your source of information is not reliable, then it becomes difficult to keep track of what they're saying.

00:48:11.980 The king government is just an entity, and there is something much deeper behind that,

00:48:17.980 so I think they are just wording certain things from other entities that are actually the decision-makers.

00:48:25.980 Trudeau has major stock investments in the VACs, so that's the simple answer.

00:48:32.980 I don't really know, yo. Like, as long as I have my fucking vaccines, I'm good, you know? 0.99

00:48:38.980 If other people don't want to fucking take their vaccines, it's a fucking problem, you know? 1.00

00:48:42.980 If you want to travel, take the fucking vaccines. Otherwise, shut the fuck up. 1.00

00:48:46.980 So, why are you able to go, so right now you can get on a bus in Toronto to Montreal, no vaccines, packed bus. 0.99

00:48:52.980 But if you were trying to go on a flight, right, from Toronto to Montreal, same thing, packed, you need vaccines to go on the flight.

00:48:58.980 But if it was really dangerous like that, how come you're allowed to go on the bus, spread the virus, but you can't go on a flight?

00:49:04.980 Yeah. Why is it like that?

00:49:06.980 Yeah, it's stupid, yo. They have this fucking, like, contradictory, or how do you say it? 1.00

00:49:15.980 Contradictions, right? 0.99

00:49:16.980 Yeah, all these fucking contradictions that, you know, doesn't fucking make sense. 1.00

00:49:19.980 And, you know, at the end, you have to fucking follow the rules, the system, it's all about that shit, right? 1.00

00:49:24.980 So, you don't want to get in trouble, just do what the fuck they are saying. 1.00

00:49:27.980 Are you in favor of continuing the vaccine mandate for travel? Do you think it's an effective method? 0.99

00:49:32.980 Yes, I do.

00:49:33.980 How come?

00:49:34.980 How come?

00:49:35.980 Because you're not, you're limiting people coming in that are possibly bringing in, you know, COVID, so.

00:49:40.980 How come right now you could get on a bus from Toronto to Montreal, you can get on a bus, right?

00:49:45.980 But if you were to try and go on a plane, you have to have a vaccine.

00:49:49.980 But if the point is to stop the spread, if it's dangerous to get on a plane without a vaccine, why are they allowing human beings to pack buses that are unvaccinated, but they can't go on a plane and do that?

00:50:00.980 Does that make sense?

00:50:01.980 No, it doesn't make sense.

00:50:02.980 No, I agree.

00:50:03.980 It doesn't make sense.

00:50:04.980 But the same with the subway too.

00:50:05.980 I was on the subway yesterday.

00:50:06.980 It's packed in there.

00:50:07.980 And I'm right up against other people.

00:50:10.980 My response to that is that there should be some level of requirement to do the same on a bus.

00:50:15.980 Because if we're supposed to be trying to curtail the spread of this virus and it has been out of control, then we should be willing to take more steps to do that.

00:50:27.980 There's blatant hypocrisy in some of these decisions.

00:50:30.980 And even with the streetcars being packed, masks are on, masks are off.

00:50:35.980 It's very confusing.

00:50:37.980 And it's frankly hypocritical when one thing's okay and one thing's not.

00:50:42.980 Even the bars you'll go to are packed and full of people.

00:50:45.980 No, I think it's very difficult to make sense of a lot of the stuff that's going on right now.

00:50:49.980 And I try not to think about it too much.

00:50:51.980 Just wake up, try and be grateful.

00:50:53.980 And like I said, make better decisions when we're voting people into power.

00:50:57.980 That makes no sense to me.

00:50:59.980 So I'm glad you're asking these questions so that someone can make sense of this. 0.99

00:51:04.980 Yo, you know, I think that there's a money scheme behind all of this shit. 0.95

00:51:09.980 You know, when they have the certain arrangements and the way they set this stage up, you know. 0.99

00:51:15.980 I feel like the upper class people, them get to keep their private jets and private yachts and shit, you know. 0.61

00:51:22.980 There's nothing else to say. 0.91

00:51:24.980 It's like it makes no sense.

00:51:26.980 Me coming, I mean, I'm a permanent resident.

00:51:30.980 But like I could just travel if I want to and not having any vaccine because I'm a French citizen.

00:51:38.980 And then come back as a Canadian resident and they cannot refuse any of that.

00:51:44.980 Do you personally think it's an effective method?

00:51:46.980 What are your thoughts?

00:51:47.980 Absolutely not.

00:51:48.980 I'd love to see it lifted.

00:51:49.980 I'd love to go travel and not have to worry about the nonsense.

00:51:53.980 I think other countries are handling it in a much better manner. 1.00

00:51:56.980 Nah, fuck. 1.00

00:51:57.980 The mandates don't work, you know. 1.00

00:51:59.980 They're just trying to restrict the people and make people, like, have less options and shit, you know. 0.96

00:52:04.980 And keep them inside the yard. 0.99

00:52:06.980 And like, you know, trying to fuck up the next generation. 0.99

00:52:08.980 Psychological warfare. 0.97

00:52:10.980 That's it.

00:52:11.980 Canadian government is going to drop the federal vaccine mandate for travel.

00:52:15.980 You're not on my list.

00:52:16.980 Sorry.

00:52:17.980 Not on the list.

00:52:19.980 The list.
