Rebel News Plus is a video version of the Rebel News Network's flagship podcast, Rebel News. Hosted by Ezra Levenkamp, host of the popular radio show "Rebel Radio" and host of "The Rebel News Plus" podcast, Drea Humphrey, joins host Ezra to talk about her trip to Mar-A-Largo with James O'Keefe.
00:14:41.760By the way, all of these projects that he's talking about, they have been proposed for years.
00:14:48.900Many of them have been languishing for nearly a decade under Trudeau's red tape. It's the liberals
00:14:56.020who were almost at the point of killing these deals. And now, Carney said, oh, yeah, okay, you can go
00:15:01.200now. Each of these companies by now, by the way, is ready to put their own money into making something.
00:15:06.360I don't know, a mine, a project of some sort, their own money typically, which means they've spent years
00:15:12.680thinking about it and planning it and investigating it and studying it and typically not asking the
00:15:17.960taxpayer for help. So why wouldn't all of those projects be allowed to proceed? Why does it need
00:15:25.680an additional layer of political approval? Why does it have to meet Mark Carney's taste?
00:15:31.120Why do we need to appeal to the whims of the leader? That's North Korea stuff.
00:15:37.560That would be like 10 different restaurants all saying, well, we think a lot of people want to go
00:15:42.160out for restaurant, out to eat. We're going to open restaurants and I'm going to open a Chinese
00:15:47.220restaurant, an Italian restaurant, and the chefs are ready to cook and investors are ready to rent the
00:15:51.520place and hire staff. But some local boss says, no, no, no, I'm going to choose which ones open and which
00:15:59.920ones can't. What? They're all ready to do it. They're not asking for your money. They're all
00:16:04.880obeying the law. It's really none of your business. You can eat at whichever restaurant you like.
00:16:10.060Who are you to say which ones can or can't work? Why not let the people, why not let the market?
00:16:15.880On what basis? Is it based on who lobbies Mark Carney? Who is cool and uses the right buzzwords? Is it based
00:16:26.140on who donated to his campaign? Is it who talks about global warming still? I mean, his own close
00:16:33.080friends at GFans, Global Financial Alliance for Net Zero, they've abandoned his schemes, but he's just
00:16:38.560foisting it on us. I mean, just a few weeks ago, he let the mask slip. I think it was so childish,
00:16:44.740so gross. He was asked about oil pipelines, which are more valuable than all the other projects put
00:16:50.760together, by the way. Not only are the construction costs of pipelines enormous, and again, this would
00:16:56.560all be paid for by private companies. Northern Gateway, Keystone XL, these are private companies
00:17:02.780that said, we will put the money in. You don't have to put the money in. By the way, not only is the
00:17:08.700construction multi-billion dollars, but the oil that flows through them is Canada's most valuable
00:17:14.740export. I don't know if you know that, but oil and gas exports to America are triple what the auto
00:17:21.320industry is. So, for example, a pipeline like the Keystone XL pipeline, which is partially built,
00:17:27.160but not built, it would have 800,000 barrels of oil a day. Now, the world price of oil is about
00:17:35.38060 US dollars per barrel, or about 85 Canadian. And by the way, Canadian oil is actually sold at a
00:17:41.540discount to world prices because of a lack of pipelines. So, in a single year, if Keystone XL
00:17:47.340were built, that would move 25 billion dollars worth of oil, just that one pipeline, every year
00:17:57.040for a century. But here's what Mark Carney said a few weeks ago when asked about oil pipelines.
00:18:04.000Is this pipeline going to come? So boring. It's not actually. It is. It is. No, but it is. It is
00:18:11.000because it's, look, it's, don't worry, we're on it. We're on it. Like, we're on it. But there is this
00:18:15.580whole world. Okay, hands up. Who's working on the pipeline in this room? Okay. Isn't that a problem?
00:18:22.860No, no, no, no. Look at all the variety. Like, Nav, like, does your, like, it's, we have.
00:18:33.080Yeah, if there's more prosperity, they'll get more cell phone, cell phone services.
00:18:37.500But look, look, okay. So, what's going to drive, one of the things with, yeah, don't worry. We're on
00:18:42.760the, we're on the pipeline stuff. Danielle's on line one. Don't worry. It's going to happen. But,
00:18:47.600well, something's going to happen. Let's put it that way.
00:18:49.920It's not very good negotiating by my perspective. But what some in the room will unlock on the
00:18:58.800data center side, the intelligence infrastructure side, will have a much bigger impact on productivity
00:19:05.160in this country. We'll have a much bigger impact on our standard of living. And advantaging that,
00:19:11.740which is what we're doing with the productivity super deduction, like, it's an easy conversation
00:19:15.960to have about a pipeline because it's one thing we can see. But the reality is that there's much,
00:19:23.760much more to the Canadian economy. And there's much, much more to the future of the Canadian
00:19:26.840economy. And so we're attacking it on all sides.
00:19:29.340So boring, boring. What are you, like a teenage child? You want to play video games? Sorry to
00:19:36.960bore you. Sorry we all can't be as riveting and scintillating and dynamic and so damn interesting
00:19:43.900as you are, Mark Carney. You're so magnetic. As if boring or not boring is anything other than
00:19:49.500his own snobbery. Sorry the boring jobs are what builds this world. And in Canada, that's oil and gas,
00:19:56.160which is more than double oil at auto exports. And Carney seems resigned to losing our auto
00:20:02.180industry. Hey, why don't you actually build something that the world wants and Trump can't
00:20:07.120move? Trump can't move the oil patch to America. He can move the car companies there. It looks like
00:20:12.940he's doing it. Trump will have to buy our oil from us. He can't say, I demand that the oil sands move.
00:20:19.460Sorry to bore you with the oil industry. Sorry. It's just, I can't, what a childish reaction.
00:20:25.000So Carney announced his favorite companies and no oil companies were amongst them.
00:20:29.600Now, Canada, let me start with our position as an energy superpower. We're starting to realize
00:20:35.100our full potential in both conventional, i.e. oil and gas, and clean energy. LNG is an essential
00:20:43.340fuel for the energy transition. LNG can help Canada build new trading relationships, especially
00:20:49.520in fast-growing markets in Asia. By 2040, it's estimated that global LNG demand will rise
00:20:56.220by 60 percent. And Canada will be ready. We're home to the world's fourth largest reserves of
00:21:04.220natural gas. And we have the potential to supply up to 100 million tons annually of new LNG exports
00:21:11.920to Asia. But that will require major investment across a wide range of infrastructure. And to
00:21:20.920encourage that investment, the budget provides new tax incentives to encourage the world's
00:21:27.860lowest carbon, I'll repeat, the world's lowest carbon LNG facilities. And the budget also expands
00:21:34.720the Canadian Infrastructure Bank's ability to support projects like Cylism's LNG.
00:21:41.720Cylism comprises a new gas pipeline, a new electricity transmission line, and a new floating LNG export
00:21:49.960facility. Led by the Nisqa Nation under President Ava Clayton, Cylism's will become Canada's second-largest
00:21:59.720LNG facility with the capacity to export 12 million tons of LNG every year to new markets.
00:22:06.720It will also be one of the world's cleanest LNG operations, with emissions an incredible 94 percent
00:22:13.720below the global average, with the potential to reach net zero by the end of this decade. All while creating
00:22:20.720thousands of skilled careers and four billion dollars contributions annually to our GDP.
00:22:29.720The Federal Government has been working closely with the Province of British Columbia in the
00:22:33.720development of this project, most notably through a one-project, one-review environmental
00:22:39.720assessment process and associated consultations led by the Province. In addition to consulting on the
00:22:47.720financing of Cylism, the Major Project Office will also help coordinate timely approvals of all three
00:22:55.720elements of the project and the related transmission infrastructure that I'll discuss in a moment.
00:23:02.720Now, more broadly, taking a step back from LNG, core to becoming an energy superpower will be to fully
00:23:13.720capitalize on Canada's advantage in clean energy by substantially expanding our clean
00:23:20.720electricity grid, over 80 percent of the electric power we produce in the country.
00:23:25.720It's higher, obviously, in British Columbia, but in the country as a whole is clean.
00:23:30.720The point is clean electrification is the path. It's the only path to building a sustainable, prosperous economy.
00:23:39.720Now, a liquefied natural gas plant was approved, but it still doesn't have a pipeline to supply it,
00:23:49.720so I'm not sure what's going to happen there. But there's a left-wing activist in British Columbia named
00:23:53.720Kyna Gatta who asked a question that I thought was sort of interesting. Here's Kyna Gatta talking to Mark Carney.
00:23:59.720Kyna Gatta from Dogwood News following up on this question. So, as it stands, Western LNG is the owner of the Cylism's Terminal,
00:24:07.720of the Cylism's Terminal, and it would be built in Korea with Korean and Chinese steel. So how much taxpayer money
00:24:15.720are we prepared to invest in a project that is American-owned and foreign-built?
00:24:19.720There are different aspects of the project, as I said. There is the PRGT pipeline, which is necessary,
00:24:29.720which is Canadian-owned First Nation. Sorry, can I finish? There is the associated transmission line that comes here.
00:24:39.720There are structures that come with projects that ensure that there is returns to taxpayers through the tax system as well.
00:24:48.720And the structure of the financing is a decision that we take with the full information, the full information of the project,
00:24:56.720the project design. So that's part of, you don't answer, we answer that question with full information by doing the work,
00:25:05.720and that's what the referral to the major project office facilitates.
00:25:10.720Korea, China, that's sort of interesting. I know that Mark Carney has been saying,
00:25:15.720well, we're going to emphasize Canadian first and Canadian steel and stuff, and it doesn't sound that way.
00:25:20.720I wonder if Brookfield Asset Management is getting anything out of this, but I don't really care about China, Korea stuff.
00:25:27.720If it's not my money investing in the thing, I just want the things built, because I know, for one thing, the gas is Canadian.
00:25:34.720The gas will be produced in Canada. I just want the thing built, and for the government to step out of the way,
00:25:41.720not to pretend he's some miraculous oracle who can see into the future. I mean, Justin Trudeau foolishly said,
00:25:49.720there's no business case to sell oil and gas to the world. And then Qatar goes and signs a multi-billion dollar deal with Europe.
00:25:55.720I mean, it's like when Justin Trudeau and Doug Ford spent tens of billions of dollars on electric car batteries.
00:26:04.720That's the future. And those companies are now leaving us.
00:26:08.720I saw a tweet by CP24, which is owned by CTV.
00:26:12.720The regime media is trying to spin this as oil and gas industry approves.
00:26:17.720Yeah, I read the story. No actual oil producers were actually quoted in it.
00:26:22.720Now, some lobbyists from the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers was quoted, and he's obviously trying hard to maintain his relationship with the Carney liberals,
00:26:31.720rather than promoting the interests of his own industry. But no oil producer praised this because no oil production will be allowed.
00:26:38.720No pipeline, no tankers. You know, Mao Zedong, I mentioned this earlier, Stalin and Mao.
00:26:45.720They tried to centrally command the economy in a manner similar to what Mark Carney is doing.
00:26:50.720Mao is crazy. He, one of the things he did during, you know, various eras of uprisings and revolutions and internal revolutions,
00:27:00.720is he mandated that farmers, instead of farming for food in the world's hungriest country, that they start to make steel in their backyard.
00:27:15.720Do you think it's possible to make steel in your backyard?
00:27:18.720Well, Mao did. And it caused a famine. It was an economic disaster.
00:27:25.720And then Mao came and thought, oh, well, one of the problems why there's so few crops is because there are sparrows eating our food.
00:27:34.720So he called upon the Chinese people to kill every sparrow they saw.
00:27:41.720And they did. And tens of millions of sparrows were killed.
00:27:46.720So it's true the sparrows didn't eat the crops anymore.
00:27:49.720But now locusts had no natural predators left, did they?
00:27:54.720And so nature was out of balance and the locusts completely wiped out the crops.
00:28:00.720This is what Frederick Bastiat was warning about, about a bread ministry that's so smart but knows nothing.
00:30:17.720Hey, welcome back. While I was on my quick journey down to James O'Keefe's event,
00:30:30.720I saw what Drea Humphrey was going through.
00:30:32.720And by the way, we had two security guards there for her.
00:30:34.720So I was alarmed, but I'm glad that we were prepared for the kind of pushing and shoving that was there.
00:30:40.720This is her at Thompson Rivers University, where Francis Whittleson and others were there to talk about the unmarked graves question.
00:30:49.720And it's a question. It hasn't been answered yet.
00:30:51.720People say in places like Kamloops, there are 200 unmarked graves.
00:30:55.720Well, millions of dollars has been given to the band to carefully and ethically check, dig, investigate.
00:31:02.720Are those actually graves? Hasn't happened yet, because I think people don't want the truth to come out.
00:31:08.720They prefer the narrative that the white man killed Aboriginal people in a kind of genocide.
00:31:15.720They're trying to slander Canada's past. I want to know the truth.
00:31:19.720I know one thing. We don't know the truth now.
00:31:21.720But there's a lot of people trying to stop us from getting the truth.
00:31:24.720Drea Humphrey did a documentary on this story a couple of years ago.
00:31:27.720Here, watch her in action. Take a look.
00:31:30.720Four years ago, on May 27th, 2021, the world looked at Canada in a different way after the Kamloops ban put out the false claim that they had discovered the remains of 215 children at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School.
00:31:49.720Now, many of you watching us know that that's not true, and neither are all of the other claims where bands have said similar things about discoveries that never were.
00:31:58.720And today, right behind me, is a scene you don't see very often taking place in Kamloops Thompson River University.
00:32:07.720Today, Dr. Frances Widowson, who is behind the documentary What Remains, has showed here to shed light on those false claims and to challenge university students to actually think and not be offended of the truth.
00:32:24.720I'm Drea Humphrey with Rebel News, who traveled here to cover what happened here today for you.
00:32:30.720And I had to do so safely in case you missed it.
00:32:33.720Recently, Dr. Frances Widowson did something very similar in Winnipeg at a university and was treated like this.
00:33:28.720So to be your eyes and ears here during this important discussion about Canadian history,
00:33:50.260especially in a time where reconciliation overreach has turned into excusing Aboriginal title in Richmond, B.C.,
00:33:59.380I have security guards with me to keep me safe.
00:34:02.980If you want to chip in to help cover those expenses, you can do so by donating what you can at our special website called KamloopsDocumentary.com.
00:34:12.700I should also let you know that accompanied with Dr. Widdowson is one B.C. leader Dallas Brody, as well as her house leader, Tara Armstrong.
00:34:24.640They have been strong advocates for the truth on this issue, even coming up with their own documentary,
00:34:30.180which will be released in just a couple of weeks called Making a Killing.
00:34:35.120We will be covering that release as well.
00:34:37.460They're here, as is one of their recent announced candidates, who is a former teacher in Abbotsford.
00:36:10.680Thompson Rivers University sent me a trespass notice on October 15th of this year after Simon, Cathy Drake and myself did a Spectrum Street Epistemology session on the remains of 215 children, that claim.
00:36:29.680Jenna, who participated, Hal, who participated, we all agreed at the end that excavations were needed at the Kamloops Union Residential School to figure out the truth with respect to the matter.
00:36:39.680And because Thompson Rivers University sent me that trespass notice and said that only authorized discussions can take place, I said, I've got to come back to this university.
