Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Jason Kenney makes a fake lockdown announcement — and says some deeply troubling things

00:00:00.000 Tonight, big news from Alberta.

00:00:16.680 It's February 9th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:00:21.280 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:00:24.820 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:00:28.720 The only thing I have to say to the government of a wire publisher is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:00:40.000 Hey, did you see Trudeau in Parliament the other day?

00:00:43.220 It wasn't making much sense.

00:00:45.660 We need restrictions to avoid restrictions or something?

00:00:49.600 Here, here's what he said.

00:00:50.940 I think one of the things we all understand is just how frustrated everyone is.

00:00:55.940 We're all frustrated. We're all sick and tired of restrictions, of mandates, of having to make sacrifices, of not being able to do the things we love.

00:01:06.560 It's been two years, and it's really, really tiring for all of us.

00:01:12.040 This government has been focused every step of the way on following the best science, following the best public health advice,

00:01:19.200 to keep as many people safe as possible.

00:01:22.020 And quite frankly, it's worked.

00:01:23.720 We've seen the curves lower in Canada than elsewhere.

00:01:27.600 We've seen lower death rates.

00:01:28.620 We've seen quicker economic recovery because Canadians stepped up, because Canadians got vaccinated.

00:01:35.760 And I can understand frustrations with mandates, but mandates are the way to avoid further restrictions or having to be restricted.

00:01:43.780 I don't really know what it means either.

00:01:45.980 His Quebec lieutenant, left-handed, I guess we say, quit over his mandates and his extreme smearing of the protesters.

00:01:55.300 I can't help but notice with regret that both the tone and the policies of my government changed drastically on the eve and during the last election campaign.

00:02:05.340 From a positive and unifying approach, a decision was made to wedge, to divide, and to stigmatize.

00:02:13.860 I fear that this politicization of the pandemic risks undermining the public's trust in our public health institutions.

00:02:22.660 Well, I'm shocked that Trudeau didn't call that MP racist, as he usually does.

00:02:29.520 So that's Trudeau, but really, how different is that from Jason Kenney, the premier of Alberta?

00:02:35.440 Kenney had a hastily scheduled press conference last night in direct response to the two-week blockade at the Alberta-Montana border in the little village of Kootz, Alberta.

00:02:47.020 Just to recap, Kootz is a village right on the border.

00:02:50.580 However, there are a few hundred truckers that are blocking the border right now, and they've been reinforced from time to time with farmers, which I think shows a lot of local support.

00:03:03.640 Here's some video, if you forgot, from early on when the RCMP thought they would just walk up to these big truckers,

00:03:09.760 and the truckers would, what, just bundle themselves into police cars or something, cry or something?

00:03:16.680 I don't know what.

00:03:17.720 But the truckers didn't move, and it was the RCMP who retreated.

00:03:21.280 Oh, man, I'm breaking away from us.

00:03:39.760 Now, I'm not one for lawlessness, really, but I'm not sure how lawful any of the lockdown is, really.

00:03:47.700 I should tell you, none of these lockdown laws were passed in Parliament or provincial legislature.

00:03:53.480 They're issued as emergency edicts by unelected bureaucrats, often not even cabinet ministers,

00:03:59.780 just some official we've never heard of before, enjoying two years of an emergency.

00:04:06.640 Soon we're going to be in the third year of an emergency.

00:04:08.460 Next month, we'll be entering the third year of the emergency.

00:04:11.920 That's what the communists always say.

00:04:13.340 They say it's a permanent revolution because they have to keep having enemies to attack.

00:04:18.180 They have to keep having an excuse for why they're tyrants. 0.90

00:04:20.940 We just have to be during the emergency.

00:04:23.300 Is it really still an emergency?

00:04:26.100 Anyways, the truckers simply won't move.

00:04:28.400 And as Robert Peel's principles of policing could have predicted nearly 200 years ago,

00:04:34.900 if you don't have the consent of the people, police, well, police can't.

00:04:38.620 Do the jobs.

00:04:40.060 You'll still be able to pick off the odd person if they protest only one at a time.

00:04:45.120 Like Adam Skelly's barbecue place in Toronto, remember in those early days?

00:04:48.960 He was the one courageous man in the city of millions.

00:04:52.260 So 100 riot police and even some riot horses were deployed.

00:04:55.760 Shock and awe, they crushed him.

00:04:57.060 But yeah, I don't think that's going to work out in the Bald Prairie, four hours away from

00:05:01.420 the big city of Calgary, where the cops are outnumbered and the locals have bigger gear.

00:05:07.840 You really need moral authority to make an arrest.

00:05:10.440 You want the people around you to, if they do anything, help the cops.

00:05:17.120 But these protesters just simply feel that the law is not just.

00:05:22.400 And they don't feel the moral pressure of police that Adam Skelly might feel, unless the

00:05:28.440 police are literally going to start shooting people, God forbid.

00:05:31.420 There's simply no way to get those big men into a police car, not with that number of

00:05:38.440 them and the local support they have.

00:05:40.120 The locals do support them.

00:05:41.600 In fact, the locals are mad at the RCMP, who've built a sort of siege wall around the truckers.

00:05:48.360 It's the RCMP who are blocking people in coups and inconveniencing them.

00:05:52.020 Do you know how the neighbors feel about this blockade?

00:05:56.160 I think most of them are for it.

00:05:57.640 Some of the older ones are not.

00:05:59.580 And there's a lady that lives down the street that has not been able to get her health care 1.00

00:06:03.100 nurse down here because the cops won't let her through. 1.00

00:06:06.580 So it's the cops.

00:06:07.820 It's not the blockade itself.

00:06:09.160 It's not the truckers.

00:06:10.300 I don't think it's the truckers at all.

00:06:11.720 They've been respectful, humble, peaceful, and I'm glad they're here.

00:06:22.020 The cops are from out of town.

00:06:40.040 They're not from, they're not from coups.

00:06:41.840 They don't know the lay of the land.

00:06:44.200 You know, I don't know how old you are, but I grew up in the 70s and 80s.

00:06:47.880 And I remember that old shoe called the Dukes of Hazzard.

00:06:50.300 Where them Duke boys kept out running and out thinking and out scheming the hapless

00:06:55.820 politicized cops working for Boss Hogg.

00:06:59.440 That's what this all feels like a bit.

00:07:01.560 I'm not the only one who feels that way.

00:07:03.180 Here's the local MLA, a Jason Kenney backbencher named Grant Hunter, who finally popped up in

00:07:10.640 the media on our channel of all places.

00:07:13.420 Last night, he was standing in that restaurant, that bar with the truckers. 0.82

00:07:19.600 Take a look.

00:07:20.600 For those in our audience who might not know who are you, could you introduce yourself?

00:07:24.120 I'm Grant Hunter.

00:07:25.120 I'm the MLA for the area.

00:07:26.120 Tabor Warner.

00:07:27.120 All right.

00:07:28.120 And just some quick questions here.

00:07:30.120 Jason Kenney said that there were no negotiations between MLAs and the truckers.

00:07:33.480 Is that true?

00:07:34.480 That's absolutely true.

00:07:35.480 Yeah.

00:07:36.480 No, I'm just the MLA here.

00:07:37.480 I came to make sure that everybody's healthy and strong and that they're keeping the law.

00:07:40.480 That's what I'm here for.

00:07:41.480 So I guess that kind of answered my second question, but what is the message you want

00:07:45.620 to send by being here?

00:07:46.600 Well, I just want to make sure that this is a peaceful protest.

00:07:51.380 I mean, they have inspired nations, the world really, by what's going on here, what's going

00:07:58.340 over, what's happening in Ottawa.

00:08:00.400 So, you know, this isn't about politicians.

00:08:03.760 In fact, politicians right now are really incidental.

00:08:07.300 This is a movement of the people, and as it continues to grow, politicians are going

00:08:12.100 to have to get on board.

00:08:12.940 The truth, that's the reality.

00:08:14.700 So the message is thank you very much for inspiring people to fight for their freedoms

00:08:21.860 and liberties.

00:08:22.860 I think that that's absolutely critical and important for our children, my children and

00:08:26.660 my grandchildren.

00:08:27.660 And Jason Kenney just announced there might be an end to certain restrictions, including

00:08:31.480 the restriction exemption program.

00:08:32.700 But I think a lot of people might have that question where, why should we trust him now

00:08:35.940 when we've heard before that this is going to end, this is going to end?

00:08:38.680 Why do we believe him now?

00:08:39.680 Well, time always tells, right?

00:08:41.420 At 12.01 tonight, you'll know if that's true or not.

00:08:44.460 If the R.E.P. program comes off, you know it's true.

00:08:46.700 And my last question for you there, we're on day 12 of this blockade here.

00:08:51.360 Why is it that you've shown up today and why not previously?

00:08:54.120 I was here actually before.

00:08:55.260 I've been here three times so far.

00:08:56.460 Three times now.

00:08:57.460 Yeah, so that's okay.

00:08:59.460 Actually on Saturday when it started, I actually came down with my grandchildren and some of my family.

00:09:03.800 I got beat up in the other media outlets for coming down, but all I said was I am here

00:09:12.480 because I really believe in the importance of freedom and liberty for my children and grandchildren.

00:09:17.140 And I think it's important for them to understand how important it is to stand up for that freedom.

00:09:21.740 So Grant Hunter has been down to visit the truckers three or four times now, including one time with his family, he says.

00:09:28.900 He finds the truckers inspiring, he says.

00:09:31.580 Politicians should learn from them, he says.

00:09:34.960 He wants to make sure these truckers are doing fine, that they're staying healthy, I think he said.

00:09:41.460 And why was he there when he was there?

00:09:44.740 Well, that's what's so interesting.

00:09:46.880 He was there with the blockading truckers precisely when Jason Kenney was making his announcement in response to the truckers.

00:09:55.020 Imagine that, it couldn't be more symbolic.

00:09:58.400 This rural MLA I checked, he got 78% of the vote last time.

00:10:02.020 He knows how to read the ground in Tabor Warner.

00:10:04.900 Jason Kenney is about, I don't know, 20% in the polls.

00:10:08.400 The party is going to lose with him, sorry to tell you that.

00:10:11.400 And those truckers, I mean, just look at them and the farmers who are coming in too.

00:10:17.040 Do you doubt that every single one of them voted for the United Conservative Party, the UCP, and for Kenny and for Hunter last time?

00:10:24.740 And do you doubt that every single one of them are going to vote against Kenny this next time?

00:10:29.940 And Hunter, if he's backing Kenny, he's going to get voted out too.

00:10:34.440 You don't have to be a genius to figure out that Jason Kenney has lost his moral authority to govern.

00:10:40.680 I'm surprised there hasn't been a confidence vote taken.

00:10:43.840 I think he'd lose.

00:10:45.780 Maybe it's because the UCP party is having its convention in exactly two months, April 9th, I think.

00:10:53.180 And they'll take care of business there.

00:10:55.700 So maybe that's why they're not doing it now.

00:10:58.080 Well, Kenny is going to lose, whether he loses at the convention or in the general election, he's going to lose.

00:11:04.060 But I think if he does, he will be well-suited to be a very highly paid Canadian vice president for Pfizer.

00:11:13.180 I mean, what do you think of this, marketing whiz?

00:11:15.580 I think it's quite likely that for the rest of our lives, we're probably going to need to take an annual COVID shot, much like the annual flu shot.

00:11:26.740 Every year, as you know, there's a slightly modified flu vaccine that is made available.

00:11:34.360 And that is quite possible for COVID.

00:11:37.700 Are we then going to attach this?

00:11:39.500 Is this going to become a permanent feature of our lives?

00:11:42.220 Got it.

00:11:43.440 Annual boosters forever.

00:11:45.880 However, yeah, that sells well in Alberta.

00:11:49.800 Oh, my God.

00:11:50.740 Just to backtrack for a second.

00:11:51.900 So Kenny called this emergency press conference precisely because of the truckers.

00:11:56.520 He had originally said he might relax his vaccine passport in March.

00:12:01.260 Then he said maybe the end of February.

00:12:03.800 These truckers panicked him.

00:12:05.300 He was worried he was going to get the Aaron O'Toole treatment.

00:12:07.980 But he wanted to be really, really clear his panicky press conference had nothing to do with the truckers.

00:12:15.680 As I've said consistently, we welcome the freedom of people to protest lawfully and peacefully.

00:12:24.300 But this is not a lawful protest.

00:12:26.600 This and other road blockages constitute a safety hazard, a serious interference in the lives of others.

00:12:36.340 It does economic damage, in this case particularly for ranchers, farmers and agri-food producers.

00:12:43.980 I would point out to those involved in the blockade, I think there are about 38 trucks, I should say semi-trucks at the Coutts Border Crossing itself.

00:12:54.100 Really, a few trucks, 38 trucks.

00:12:56.880 Is that right?

00:12:57.780 Do you believe that?

00:13:00.760 Do you think he thinks we believe that?

00:13:03.940 How pitiful.

00:13:05.120 They're totally not on his mind at all.

00:13:08.480 You can definitely believe him on that.

00:13:12.320 And it's April 9th.

00:13:13.520 It's April 9th, Leadership Review.

00:13:14.800 That's totally, he's totally not thinking about that at all people.

00:13:17.500 But he was pretty tricky about it.

00:13:19.180 He was a bit of a trickster.

00:13:19.900 The truckers wanted an end to all the lockdown laws, all the mandates, all of it.

00:13:23.340 And to end the vaccine mandate in particular, that means forced vaccines.

00:13:27.300 And indeed, Kenny said he was going to end the provincial vaccine passport, which he laughably calls the restriction exemption pass.

00:13:35.380 Today, the COVID cabinet committee has approved a number of measures that constitute a careful and prudent plan to remove Alberta's public health restrictions

00:13:45.840 and move on from a widespread pandemic response to get our lives back to normal.

00:13:51.420 Or whatever.

00:13:54.240 But what a slippery trickster.

00:13:55.820 He is keeping the entire biomedical security state infrastructure underneath it.

00:14:01.980 The database, the QR codes.

00:14:05.040 Because he was quite explicit about this.

00:14:07.200 He will support any business that wants to bring in their own vaccine passport.

00:14:12.580 Presumably any city also.

00:14:14.080 He's fine with it.

00:14:14.840 Listen.

00:14:15.020 If a business chooses to have a policy of that nature, then that may appeal to a certain kind of customer

00:14:25.320 and it may turn away other kinds of customers.

00:14:27.500 That's a commercial decision.

00:14:29.720 At the end of the day, I would love it if we could move away from all of this

00:14:36.020 and no longer have to produce the QR codes.

00:14:41.840 That could get us past the problem you've raised.

00:14:45.420 Really?

00:14:46.460 You're just fine with anyone discriminating, demanding health information and then discriminating based on it?

00:14:54.620 Really?

00:14:55.920 That's not what he said before. 0.97

00:14:58.220 But he is becoming a bit of a liar, isn't he?

00:15:00.420 Because of concerns I had around privacy rights.

00:15:03.460 All I know is this, that it's illegal based on the Privacy Act.

00:15:07.120 So Kenny says there is no public health reason anymore for vaccine passports.

00:15:11.880 I don't think there ever was.

00:15:13.700 I presume that so-called public health emergency was, you know, why he was permitting that kind of discrimination.

00:15:22.120 But now he's saying the vaccine passport is over.

00:15:25.520 The emergency is over.

00:15:26.620 Well, he's not actually saying the emergency is over.

00:15:28.460 The province is still in a legal state of emergency.

00:15:31.120 And he could still renege on this immediately, like, for example, April 10th if he wins his leadership vote.

00:15:36.860 But my point is he's pretending we're going back to the before times, except for now he's permitting discrimination that was illegal during the before times.

00:15:47.040 A few minutes later, though, Kenny seemed to remember that.

00:15:50.680 And he said this.

00:15:52.060 Treating fellow people as though they are somehow unclean?

00:15:54.920 Listen, I've been amply clear that I think everybody should avail themselves of the protection of safe and effective vaccines and that the choice not to get vaccinated is not just a personal choice.

00:16:09.160 It does have social consequences, but it's never okay to treat people like that, to stigmatize people in that way.

00:16:19.120 In a way, it kind of reminds me of the attitudes that circulated in North America in the mid-1980s about people with HIV AIDS.

00:16:29.300 That's actually an apt comparison, not comparing the two diseases, but comparing the segregation, the demonization, the violation of privacy, the hatred.

00:16:40.280 So, yeah, I think it was an apt comparison.

00:16:43.300 But I guess he forgot that he just approved that discrimination and invasion of privacy just five minutes earlier.

00:16:48.940 And he will continue to provide the QR code and the surveillance database so that any bartender, any restaurant, any storekeeper can discriminate like that.

00:16:58.400 No problem.

00:16:59.640 And he will continue to force vaccines on government staff.

00:17:03.780 That's not over either.

00:17:05.120 Every nurse, every paramedic, they're all still fired.

00:17:09.160 So what exactly changed last night?

00:17:12.500 I'm not quite sure.

00:17:13.740 The truckers at the border are unconvinced, too.

00:17:16.520 They blocked the road last night again after hearing from Kenny.

00:17:20.580 So what now?

00:17:22.300 Well, earlier today, the police said they're going to start issuing tickets or charges of some sort.

00:17:27.440 So take a look.

00:17:28.080 It's set aside that it's being accessed now to move the protest from the illegal protest here where they can legally protest up there.

00:17:38.300 So our hope is that we can get this moving along to open up this road today.

00:17:45.360 And part of that is going to be that we're looking at an enforcement perspective.

00:17:51.740 We certainly want people to leave on their own.

00:17:54.620 That is our hope.

00:17:56.260 A lot of these tractor trailers and tractors behind us are difficult to move.

00:18:00.780 So having them go on their free will and under their own power is much easier than leaving them or that sort of thing.

00:18:10.800 That's not an option at this point.

00:18:13.060 Well, fair enough.

00:18:14.600 That'll be an interesting one to prosecute.

00:18:17.020 Who parked which truck where and when?

00:18:21.220 And are you sure, beyond a reasonable doubt, as they say in court, are you sure it wasn't his brother?

00:18:26.800 It was dark out and they both have beards and dress in coveralls.

00:18:31.900 You sure it was him and not him who parked that truck and not that truck?

00:18:34.960 Really?

00:18:35.500 Imagine trying to prosecute that.

00:18:37.640 500 men.

00:18:39.300 That is a lot of prosecutors.

00:18:41.860 That is a lot of courthouses, a lot of jails you're going to have to build.

00:18:46.420 I suppose it could happen.

00:18:48.980 I'm not sure if Kenny will be around long enough to see it.

00:18:51.720 I mean, it is true that the government prosecuted farmers for selling their own wheat a generation ago in violation of the Canadian Wheat Board.

00:18:58.940 I think the reverberation of that political punishment continues to this day.

00:19:03.100 By the way, it was at that same border between Alberta and the United States.

00:19:06.660 So, yeah, a lying, flip-flopping, nervous, intellectually incoherent premier at around 20 percent in the polls, who will likely be thrown out by his own party if they have any sense of a survival instinct.

00:19:19.120 Or literally thousands of truckers and farmers standing up to these unscientifically liberal absurd health edicts.

00:19:25.360 Those are basically your choices right now.

00:19:27.080 Now, it's tough to say you support civil disobedience.

00:19:30.720 It's tough.

00:19:32.100 This feels like a general strike in a way, but unlike Canada's last general strike in Winnipeg almost exactly a century ago, this one isn't a communist general strike.

00:19:42.220 It's actually pretty anti-communist when you get down to it, which is why we believe in telling the other side of the story about it so forcefully.

00:19:50.660 So, the only news you're getting isn't from the CBC state broadcaster, which is why we're crowdfunding lawyers for these men.

00:20:00.360 My thinking on that is if Omar Khadr, the Al-Qaeda terrorist and war criminal, can get a free lawyer, then these salt of the earth Canadian patriots can too.

00:20:13.320 We're helping them crowdfund lawyers at truckerlawyer.ca.

00:20:17.220 Feel free to chip in if you agree with me on that.

00:20:21.020 See, if you had to guess, who's going to be the next Premier of Alberta?

00:20:25.300 Is it going to be Jason Kenney who's going to win next time?

00:20:28.520 Will it be Rachel Notley?

00:20:30.400 Will it be Brian Jean?

00:20:32.320 Or maybe someone with the trucker party?

00:20:37.980 Stay with us for more.

00:20:39.000 Hello to all of you who love freedom in the world.

00:20:51.320 This message today goes out to all the Canadians, especially the Canadian truckers.

00:20:57.060 I am so very proud of you.

00:20:59.760 I applaud your bravery and your determination to stand up for freedom, democracy and the rule of law.

00:21:08.920 You have given hope to so many people in the world.

00:21:12.720 You have shown the world that this small fringe minority is not all that small after all.

00:21:21.540 More importantly, you demonstrated how to deal with an ever-increasing governmental overreach.

00:21:27.860 This is not something you put up with.

00:21:31.140 No.

00:21:31.640 This is something you need to shut down.

00:21:34.700 Welcome back.

00:21:35.960 Well, you might remember a few months ago, one of the most passionate calls for freedom and rejection of the biomedical security state

00:21:43.520 was a member of the European Parliament from Germany.

00:21:48.040 Christine Anderson was her name.

00:21:49.980 Her party, the Alternative for Deutschland.

00:21:52.280 Well, she spoke out again talking about Canadian truckers as an inspiration for freedom around the world.

00:21:58.220 And I thought, well, we've got to talk to her again.

00:22:00.540 And so we are.

00:22:01.320 She joins us now via Skype from Brussels, Belgium.

00:22:04.920 Well, Mrs. Anderson, thank you very much for being here today.

00:22:08.200 I'm very grateful to you for your time.

00:22:11.540 What does it look like to look at the trucker rebellion in Canada from overseas?

00:22:18.080 I guess my first question is, how is it being reported in the European media?

00:22:24.480 Well, first of all, it looks fantastic.

00:22:28.400 It's just, it's incredible.

00:22:31.320 What, what is going on right now?

00:22:34.040 And I think, you know, especially the Canadian truckers, they actually really did give hope to a lot of people around the world.

00:22:43.700 And that's what we desperately needed.

00:22:46.020 Because I will have to say, it is simply not enough for just a handful of politicians to stand up and raise their voices against this whole COVID madness.

00:22:58.160 This is not enough.

00:22:59.600 We need the people taking to the streets and voicing their opinions.

00:23:05.580 And they need to show the people, no, you are not alone if you have qualms or if you're in fear of government.

00:23:14.100 There is so many others.

00:23:15.980 And that's why I think it was so fantastic.

00:23:18.800 And it was absolutely needed.

00:23:21.300 The signal being, you know, going out to the world.

00:23:24.180 You are not alone if you don't think that this COVID, these COVID restrictions are something entirely different.

00:23:32.020 But it's not about public health.

00:23:33.800 You know, you're so right.

00:23:35.520 The pandemic has been a lonely time for so many people.

00:23:39.660 It's been one of the tools of the lockdown, banning us from gathering, banning us.

00:23:44.660 And even if we're gathering, banning us from seeing each other's faces uncovered.

00:23:49.100 I think the loneliness and the separating us from our families and our friends is a psychological tactic.

00:23:56.320 I know that in cults, for example, removing people from their regular support groups is a tactic to weaken someone to, frankly, reprogram them.

00:24:05.080 That's the language that they would use in a cult.

00:24:07.840 So I think that you're so right.

00:24:09.480 The greatest achievement of the convoy hasn't been to necessarily change any laws, although that's happening.

00:24:16.580 I think it's been to make people feel together again and that they're not the outlier or the crazy one.

00:24:22.840 The state is that.

00:24:24.200 What do you think of my thesis on on loneliness and not being alone anymore?

00:24:29.740 Oh, absolutely.

00:24:30.920 I agree with you 100 percent there.

00:24:33.280 What we're seeing here is actually psychological warfare.

00:24:37.520 That's what it is.

00:24:38.780 People are being isolated.

00:24:40.140 They're being ostracized.

00:24:41.380 They're being, you know, called just about any name in the book.

00:24:45.500 The protests or anyone speaking up against this is being labeled with all kinds of isms.

00:24:54.060 You know, I remember the tweet that Trudeau posted.

00:24:59.320 He called the truckers.

00:25:02.060 I mean, every name in the book. 0.95

00:25:04.060 Anti-Semitic, Islamophobia, anti-black racism, homophobia, transphobia.

00:25:10.520 But it has nothing to do with any of that.

00:25:13.520 You know, it's just labeling it, discrediting it.

00:25:17.540 So people would, you know, maybe look at the truckers, you know, some anti-democrats, which they are not.

00:25:25.940 The only anti-democrats that I see are sitting in Canadian government.

00:25:30.560 That's where the anti-democrats are, you know.

00:25:34.240 So I think it was it was a really important movement because I will have to say, you know, I mean, setting aside military coups, you know, tyrannies never start out with rounding up people and, you know, having them incarcerated in camps and what have you not.

00:25:51.800 You know, once this is happening, then the totalitarian regime has been fully established.

00:25:58.400 No, it starts with little things seemingly inconsequential in the beginning, even rational steps.

00:26:05.440 You know, first, they're being ridiculed.

00:26:07.960 You know, some people are getting ridiculed.

00:26:09.600 They're getting ostracized.

00:26:12.560 Then you may see some restrictions.

00:26:14.400 Like, you know, no, you're not allowed to sit on that bench over here and you may have to sit in a specific area in a restaurant.

00:26:24.420 So really nothing big in the beginning.

00:26:27.620 But eventually you're being denied participation of social life altogether.

00:26:32.980 And then government may even pass legislation that requires a specific part of the people to fulfill some kind of requirement.

00:26:43.220 So it's little steps, you know, and when you make people believe your opinion, you're a loner, you know, you're a small French minority, you know, people, well, they don't want to speak up with this.

00:26:59.300 But let me tell you, any resistance in any totalitarian regime and any dictatorship, it always, per definition, starts out with a small French minority. 0.51

00:27:11.800 But that is no reflection on the possible invalidity of their concerns.

00:27:17.240 No, that is a reflection of people fearing government.

00:27:21.500 That's the point.

00:27:23.740 And I should tell you that although Trudeau's name calling them fringe, poll after poll says that 30, 40 or more percent of Canadians see themselves in the convoy.

00:27:34.140 That's not a fringe.

00:27:35.920 But let me ask you this, if I may.

00:27:37.060 I shouldn't interrupt you.

00:27:38.720 You were saying some very thoughtful things.

00:27:40.480 I just want to know what the media coverage like is like in Germany, because in Canada, the legacy media, the corporate media has been almost uniformly critical and disparaging.

00:27:52.840 They've really echoed those accusations of racism and sexism and whatever.

00:27:58.060 I think that the visual image of the truckers is more powerful than the angry, you know, characterizations of them by the media.

00:28:09.000 What's it like?

00:28:09.780 Like when you read about it in your various German newspapers, are they as derisive or are they more objective?

00:28:18.720 Well, no, you can't scratch objectivity here.

00:28:22.960 Of course, mainstream media over here does just what they're doing over there in Canada.

00:28:28.060 It is a small minority.

00:28:30.400 And, you know, of course, they showed all the pictures of, you know, possible violent outbursts that a swastika flag, of course, you know, it was being flashed all through media, you know, day after day.

00:28:43.140 Yeah, they were trying everything to discredit these people.

00:28:48.040 And, of course, they're trying to frame it as, you know, some anti-democrats that are trying to take down democracy and all of that.

00:28:56.280 But in reality, it's, you know, the truckers are the ones defending democracy.

00:29:03.200 They're not there to take it down, you know.

00:29:06.120 So, no, it's the same deal over here.

00:29:09.260 It's also bad.

00:29:10.760 And the truckers need to go home and all of this.

00:29:13.120 So we have the same thing going on over here.

00:29:16.080 I think that the trucker rebellion is spreading.

00:29:19.160 I've seen a trucker convoy in Australia.

00:29:22.160 I've heard about one in the Netherlands.

00:29:25.040 Now there's a bridge between Canada and the United States, a very important bridge for trade.

00:29:30.800 It's called the Ambassador Bridge.

00:29:32.840 So now America, I think, is starting to be concerned about it.

00:29:36.680 Have there been any echoes of this in Germany?

00:29:40.500 Or have the lockdowns eased enough that there's no—I mean, maybe just—that's two parts.

00:29:47.860 Have there been any trucker convoys in Germany or elsewhere in Europe?

00:29:52.000 And then I guess my last question would be, what is the state of the lockdowns over there?

00:29:56.280 Maybe they're relaxing like they are in the U.K.

00:30:00.000 Let's start with that first one first.

00:30:01.460 Are there any other trucker convoys in Europe?

00:30:05.540 There have been announcements of some trucker convoys have been made.

00:30:10.320 They're on their way.

00:30:13.500 I was mistaken when I thought they were due to arrive here in Brussels on February 7th.

00:30:18.660 They're actually due on the 14th, so that would be next week.

00:30:23.540 There is, yeah, movement going on.

00:30:26.540 And people all over, basically, and especially in the Western democracies, which is the irony of all of it.

00:30:32.460 Because, I mean, totalitarian countries, they are used to these measures.

00:30:37.420 But people in Western democracies, they're beginning to realize what is going on.

00:30:45.060 And, yeah, I'm really glad that, you know, people are understanding what is going on.

00:30:53.260 And, yeah, it is the truckers.

00:30:54.780 And it started with the Canadian truckers.

00:30:56.980 That's why, really, my utmost respect, you know, for the Canadian truckers.

00:31:01.340 Because they set a stone into rolling, and I'm not quite sure if they're going to be capable to stop it.

00:31:09.140 But we really have to understand, you know, if you sleep in a democracy, you are bound to wake up in a dictatorship.

00:31:18.800 That's just a fact.

00:31:20.580 So, no, my thanks really go out to the Canadian truckers for their courage, their bravery,

00:31:26.720 and, of course, the Canadian people supporting them.

00:31:30.040 And I know, of course, it's all been made illegal, you know, even standing in the streets and cheering and greeting them. 0.97

00:31:36.820 I mean, how pathetic can a government get, you know? 0.98

00:31:40.440 How pathetic can it get? 0.99

00:31:42.000 Well, true is an answer to that question, that's for sure. 0.96

00:31:45.140 Well, I'm thrilled to hear your personal support.

00:31:48.360 And I know the AFD, your party, is a freedom-oriented party.

00:31:52.480 What's it like in terms of pandemic rules in Germany?

00:31:56.420 And you would be familiar with those around the European Union since you were a member of the European Parliament.

00:32:01.400 For example, these truckers, one of their specific grievances is that they're not allowed to travel from Canada to the United States or back without a vaccine.

00:32:11.280 This is a new thing.

00:32:12.280 They've been able to travel for two years without one.

00:32:15.180 Of course, Europe, the countries are smaller.

00:32:18.080 It wouldn't be surprising if a truck would go, you know, through three, four, five different countries.

00:32:23.940 Is there a vaccine mandate on truckers in Europe also?

00:32:29.420 Well, there isn't a mandate for vaccination on truckers.

00:32:34.200 What they did over here is, you know, come up with a so-called digital green certificate.

00:32:39.940 And it was enacted last year, June.

00:32:44.980 We voted.

00:32:46.000 Obviously, I did not vote for it, but the majority of the parliament did vote for it.

00:32:51.160 And it was that the purpose actually was to facilitate travel within the European countries.

00:32:58.400 And the point was to, you know, to get the tourism resort back on track because they have really been beaten down with this.

00:33:07.740 So that was the purpose.

00:33:09.440 But this digital green certificate, it's like a vaccine passport.

00:33:14.260 It's been now, you know, applies to whenever I want to go to a restaurant or, you know, to a shoe store or, you know, get my hair cut.

00:33:24.360 So it's actually been abused for other purposes than it was actually put into place.

00:33:32.260 And during my speech in June of last year, I already pointed out this is going to be something they will use to keep to strip citizens of their of their fundamental rights.

00:33:44.580 And that's actually what we have been seeing.

00:33:47.000 So in terms of the measurements going on over here, well, the European countries are, you know, kind of divided as far as that is concerned.

00:33:56.720 You have countries that are opening up because it's just so utterly ridiculous to continue with this narrative.

00:34:03.920 But lo and behold, Germany, you know, great nation, our Secretary of Health is absolutely convinced that then the next wave, you know, is so horrible. 1.00

00:34:18.940 You know, there is going to be millions and millions of people dying once again.

00:34:23.700 So he continues to push the vaccines and the mandatory vaccines on everyone.

00:34:29.400 The problem we are having right now is that there is an imposed vaccination mandate on health care workers or, you know, caregivers for the elderly people.

00:34:42.640 And they're quitting their jobs.

00:34:45.700 And up until now, the narrative was, well, we have a shortage in, you know, the medical health care workers because they're fed up with having to care, give care to unvaccinated people.

00:34:57.340 That was the narrative. You know, the shortage we are having is because they're fed up having to deal with unvaccinated patients.

00:35:04.920 And now it turns out, no, we have this shortage because they do not want to get vaccinated.

00:35:12.060 Well, that's the same thing we have here. I mean, just the health care system was damaged by the response to the pandemic more than it was damaged by the virus itself, I think.

00:35:22.080 Exactly. Absolutely. So, but, you know, they keep pushing it over here in Germany.

00:35:28.880 And like I said, our secretary of health, he is, he is quite something.

00:35:33.060 I mean, I just, you know, put out a tweet if he, you know, checks under his bed every night, if there really aren't any monsters, you know, regardless, they haven't been any in the last 58 years of his life.

00:35:44.820 But you never know, you know, the next months to wait, maybe really, really bad, you know, he's, quite frankly, I consider it to be insane.

00:35:53.060 I wish we had members of the Canadian parliament who were so energetic and freedom oriented as you and your AFD colleagues.

00:36:02.940 And I thank you very much for joining us. I mean, I obviously we're across the ocean from you.

00:36:07.120 So I know that it's not your job to talk to Canadian journalists, but I think it's very important for Canadians to know that our trucker rebellion is giving hope and inspiration to people around the world.

00:36:17.620 And it's very, I was delighted when I saw you refer to it. So thanks for making the time for us today.

00:36:23.120 If I could just say, I will have to disagree with your last comment.

00:36:27.480 It is my job to speak to everyone all over the world because freedom, that is what we all want.

00:36:36.220 So it doesn't matter whether it's Canadians or Germans or Italians or whoever, freedom of the people.

00:36:42.700 This is what we all want. And this is what I fight for.

00:36:45.240 So, yes, I do consider it my job to speak to you.

00:36:49.900 Well, that's beautifully put and that's very generous. And I appreciate your public spirit.

00:36:54.760 Thank you very much, Christine Anderson from Alternative for Deutschland, a member of the European Parliament, and look forward to talking to you again soon.

00:37:02.100 Thank you so much for having me. Take care.

00:37:04.820 All right. There you have it. Christine Anderson. Stay with us. More ahead.

00:37:15.240 Hey, welcome back. Your viewer feedback.

00:37:21.720 Rick White says, I don't have a rich history of watching Trudeau clips, but the man seemed genuinely frightened in his last presser.

00:37:30.240 Could be. I mean, he's he's is a dramatic actor.

00:37:33.400 You got to give him that. And he's good at never apologizing, never showing any self-doubt.

00:37:40.460 He's manipulative that way. I whenever I think of him, I think of him as, you know, these these guys who were pickup artists.

00:37:48.320 They write books on how to psychologically manipulate women to get a date.

00:37:52.380 He that that's his chief skill, I think he's manipulative like that and he hides his true feelings.

00:37:58.720 So it's weird when that approach doesn't work, like never, never apologize, never admit doing anything wrong, brazen it out.

00:38:07.020 I'm not sure if that's working now. Insult. Project your own flaws on someone else.

00:38:11.160 You wear blackface. Call him racist. 0.99

00:38:13.220 You sexually assaulted Rose Knight in Creston, B.C. 0.99

00:38:16.360 Call that person the misogynist. 0.82

00:38:19.020 You're violating civil liberties. Say they're the violent ones.

00:38:22.960 I just don't know if that's working now.

00:38:24.920 And if you're losing a backbench MP, not even a backbencher, the head of his Quebec caucus, it's not a backbencher.

00:38:32.620 How many other people are rumbling behind the scenes?

00:38:36.120 So, yeah, it was a rare moment where where we actually saw his real face, not the mask that he wears.

00:38:41.120 P.A., 56 P.A. says, I bet CBC is losing viewership and readership and seems desperate for their narrative is failing.

00:38:52.380 I don't think they care about viewership or readership other than one viewer and reader, Justin Trudeau.

00:38:57.760 That's where they get their money from.

00:39:00.600 For the Gospel says, honestly, the citizens of this country should crowdfund a lawsuit against CBC.

00:39:06.900 Have them account for their actions before a court.

00:39:10.520 Have them account for why they're so biased to conservatives, which can be easily proven through the Freedom Convoy coverage.

00:39:18.500 Yeah, but that's not a crime.

00:39:21.000 That's not a tort, as they say.

00:39:23.420 That's not something you go to court over.

00:39:26.380 I know the instincts. Sue, I mean, believe me, we do.

00:39:29.220 But not everything will be solved in the court.

00:39:32.800 By the way, if you think judges are conservative, I got some news for you.

00:39:36.980 But even if you had a fair court, you don't want everything to be handled by judges.

00:39:42.000 Certain things have to be left to the people in a democratic way.

00:39:46.380 You don't want a court to have the power to tell someone to report things in a certain way.

00:39:51.100 It's just like whenever I object to people who say, arrest Trudeau for treason.

00:39:57.120 No, you don't want to start criminalizing political differences because you want these differences aired transparently and let the public decide.

00:40:07.620 You don't want a judge to say that's an illegal thought or act.

00:40:11.540 There are real crimes, and prosecute a guy for that, but not for getting things wrong politically.

00:40:16.860 And by the way, if you don't think that would be used on conservatives first, I think you're wrong.

00:40:22.960 That's our show for today.

00:40:24.560 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night.

00:40:29.140 And keep fighting for freedom.

00:40:30.180 And let me leave you with an update from southern Alberta, where the RCMP are staring down the truckers.

00:40:37.720 What brings you out here to Milk River, Alberta?

00:40:40.600 I came here to stand up for freedom for my children and my grandchildren.

00:40:46.000 And also in honor of my father, who was a 17-year-old, voluntarily went to World War II, survivor of Normandy and Dieppe.

00:40:56.380 And he would want me to be standing up for our rights and our freedom.

00:41:04.780 Adam Sosa here for Rebel News with an urgent update.

00:41:08.220 We now have confirmed reports that the RCMP have erected yet another barricade, another blockade of sorts, actually within Milk River.

00:41:17.800 So you have Milk River, the most northerly town with a blockade in place.

00:41:22.320 This blockade just outside of Milk River.

00:41:25.020 And finally, the now fully blockaded Kootz blockade, which has been blocked out by farmers.

00:41:30.600 So it seems that this area here, this blockade just outside of Milk River, is effectively blocked in for the time being.

00:41:39.600 This apparently all in response to the fact that the Kootz border has been blocked by farmers.

00:41:43.740 But indeed, a troubling situation.

00:41:46.180 We're not sure what exactly is going to come of this.

00:41:48.180 We're not sure if people can come in, can go out.

00:41:50.600 But for the time being, it seems we are very much locked down in no man's land.

00:41:54.620 So a familiar face, Jesse Johnson of Without Papers Pizza, normally to be found in Inglewood.

00:42:01.940 What are you doing down here?

00:42:03.740 Now I'm normally to be found in the middle of a ditch in the prairies, huddled around a fire with all of my brothers and sisters

00:42:10.000 who demand that all vaccine mandates in Alberta be rescinded immediately.

00:42:16.720 Freedom!

00:42:17.020 And what do you make of the fact no announcement from Jason Kenney today?

00:42:22.240 And we've just now learned mere moments ago that the farmers have once again closed the border

00:42:27.260 and the blockade at Kootz is in full effect.

00:42:30.040 I think that was exactly what I was expecting.

00:42:32.640 I was hoping that maybe some announcements would be made.

00:42:35.820 I was at the border earlier and we were all disappointed that he was unable to give the message to the people

00:42:42.800 who demand that some answers be had.

00:42:45.180 So you mentioned you kind of take over the night shift and manage things so some of the guys can get a rest.

00:42:50.480 No one can be going 24 hours.

00:42:52.200 What's that been like?

00:42:52.920 What's the experience here?

00:42:54.140 Oh, it's great.

00:42:55.060 Everyone's smiling.

00:42:55.980 They're happy, telling great stories.

00:42:58.080 I just come down during the night.

00:42:59.580 I'm a local in Lethbridge.

00:43:00.680 I just come down during the night so John and a couple of the other guys can lay their head down

00:43:04.900 and just keep an eye on the fires, keep an eye on the officers and so on and so forth.

00:43:10.580 But it's great.

00:43:11.540 I've met so many people, smiles, stories.

00:43:14.820 I love it.

00:43:16.500 Now, I don't know if you're aware, but with Jason Kenney not issuing a response,

00:43:20.920 no answer coming from the government, they just closed the border again.

00:43:24.240 Tractors did block off the road at Kootz.

00:43:26.940 I don't know if you're aware of that, but what do you think of that?

00:43:29.880 No, excellent.

00:43:30.760 That's what we should do.

00:43:32.100 We need to get the word out.

00:43:34.140 People have to come down.

00:43:35.040 I went to the local Safeway, and I mentioned to people, have you guys been down to the border?

00:43:40.780 And they're like, no, why would I go down there?

00:43:42.580 But they're hearing stuff on the main media saying that three cops got injured.

00:43:48.140 I've been here every night since Wednesday.

00:43:50.580 The cops come.

00:43:51.320 They talk to us.

00:43:52.060 They're civil.

00:43:52.660 We talk to them.

00:43:53.420 They tell us a joke.

00:43:54.160 We tell them a joke.

00:43:55.720 And I haven't seen or heard anything along those lines.

00:43:58.220 But that's the word that I'm hearing in the town, and I suggest to them, just come out for an hour.

00:44:03.520 Walk around.

00:44:04.180 Say hello.

00:44:05.340 Everyone here is more than happy to say hello, and it's great.

00:44:09.620 I brought my child here.

00:44:11.260 She loved it.

00:44:12.820 She went, go get a drink, and when everybody was around the fire, they would move out of the way, let her come in.

00:44:20.200 She had pockets full of bear paws and candies, and she had three Gatorades give to her.

00:44:27.460 And she loved it.

00:44:28.920 She loved the smile.

00:44:29.740 She was playing with the kids, playing in the mud like a kid does. 0.99

00:44:34.420 No, I love it.

00:44:35.720 Yeah.

00:44:36.180 So it's a real surprise to come down here.

00:44:39.760 You hear of a protest.

00:44:40.980 You think there's going to be all this angst and anger and frustration, and yet you're met with so many men and women who are here realizing we've got to fight again for our freedom.

00:44:52.400 But we're fighting with peace.

00:44:54.860 We're fighting with coming together as a number to say to the world, you know, this has got to stop.

00:45:01.540 We need to have a discussion.

00:45:03.300 We need to be able to speak with our leaders.

00:45:05.220 The oppression that we've been under for the last two years, this is giving vent to it.

00:45:09.080 Now, how are we giving vent to it?

00:45:10.240 We can smile at each other and have a conversation and talk and not be in fear of one another anymore, right?

00:45:16.140 So, yeah, it's just been a real eye-opener.

00:45:18.800 It's like coming to a family reunion and realizing all these relatives you've never met before.

00:45:22.300 But for a common purpose, we've got to fight for our freedom.

00:45:25.600 We've got to stand up for our freedom in a just way.

00:45:30.180 And it's awful how it's being painted and portrayed around the world.

00:45:33.220 You know, I've lost the respect of family members, my own son who's disowned me, thinking that this is a horrible thing, what we're doing.

00:45:41.100 Is this a horrible thing to be gathered here of like-minded people for a common cause, for our freedom?

00:45:47.300 So we're speaking to some folks here at the RCMP blockade.

00:45:50.920 I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but given the lack of response from Jason Kenney, the boys down at the Coutts blockade, farmers have once again actually shut down the border.

00:46:02.560 They're blocking the roads entirely due to the lack of response.

00:46:05.940 What do you make of that?

00:46:07.060 I think it's the correct response.

00:46:08.920 I think it's appropriate.

00:46:10.040 I think no answer from our government after there was a declared there was going to be an announcement.

00:46:18.500 I mean, what are we left with?

00:46:19.740 Look at the circus.

00:46:21.560 They shut it down.

00:46:23.200 I mean, this is about human rights.

00:46:24.640 It's not only civil rights.

00:46:26.100 This is a human rights fight.

00:46:27.920 And this is important.

00:46:30.360 Everyone needs to be aware and come down.

00:46:33.080 And it's about the guys on the other side of that line, why we are here in the tip of the spear and how they were treated.

00:46:40.120 And now they're treating guys the same in Ottawa.

00:46:43.080 It's inhumane and we need to fight hard.

00:46:46.940 We need to fight hard for this.

00:46:48.260 We need to win this fight.

00:46:49.040 So what brings you out here?

00:46:52.160 What's your motivation for being here?

00:46:54.600 We just want to stand up with the rights of every Canadian out here and just keep the fight going and make some change.

00:47:01.040 Get some proper media coverage for what's happening to Ottawa and to here.

00:47:05.000 And just keep the vibe going.

00:47:07.320 It's a very friendly, loving, it's a great atmosphere.

00:47:10.740 There's no problems at all.

00:47:13.000 Now, what do you make of some of the media narratives out there, all the way from the media to the prime minister of the country, trying to categorize a violent movement, a racist movement, or a hateful movement?

00:47:22.480 Have you seen any of that?

00:47:24.040 No, not at all.

00:47:24.860 Actually, on the contrary, we've seen nothing but love.

00:47:27.640 Canada coming together.

00:47:28.900 I've never been so proud to be a Canadian before in my life.

00:47:31.900 It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

00:47:34.000 I think everyone needs to experience this.

00:47:36.540 It's great for Canada.

00:47:37.800 So maybe tell us about what your role is.

00:47:40.240 Everyone's kind of taking on roles down here at the camp.

00:47:42.580 What are you doing to keep this movement going?

00:47:45.780 Well, I guess I've taken probably a little bit of a leadership role.

00:47:49.180 It started off as I'm the coffee guy and I was organizing the food.

00:47:52.700 But it's a movement that built so fast and I've just seen a need and it's something I could do.

00:48:01.260 So I'm just doing what I can do.

00:48:03.860 It's something I can handle and I just do my best.

00:48:07.520 That's awesome.

00:48:08.240 That's all we can ask.

00:48:09.140 What has the mood been like?

00:48:10.640 Are people friendly?

00:48:11.540 Are people happy?

00:48:12.600 Are the lies out there from the media saying that people are angry and violent here?

00:48:16.780 Are there any truth to that or what have you seen?

00:48:18.380 Well, at 7.30 in the morning when the coffee's not ready, I've got some angry protesters.

00:48:23.980 Other than that, the mood is 100%.

00:48:26.620 Yeah, the coffee's great.

00:48:29.320 But when they're waiting, boy, I tell you.

00:48:32.140 But no, it's awesome.

00:48:33.520 It's absolutely awesome.

00:48:34.920 Everyone's offered to help.

00:48:36.420 I don't think I've made a pot of coffee today or yesterday.

00:48:40.040 The guys do it for me now.

00:48:42.360 And so things like that.

00:48:43.960 Yeah, anything I need.

00:48:45.200 I've got my mic now.

00:48:46.300 I say something and I've got 10 guys moving.

00:48:50.620 And they're happy.

00:48:52.200 They're here.

00:48:52.920 They want to be here.

00:48:54.060 And they want to be here for the purpose.

00:48:56.080 So if you could just tell us what brings you out here to Milk River, Alberta.

00:49:00.260 I came here to stand up for freedom for my children and my grandchildren.

00:49:05.220 And also in honor of my father, who was a 17-year-old, voluntarily went to World War II, survivor of Normandy and Dieppe.

00:49:15.380 And he would want me to be standing up for our rights and our freedom.

00:49:19.800 So where are you guys coming down from?

00:49:22.960 You just arrived tonight.

00:49:24.020 Where are you coming from?

00:49:25.540 Edmonton.

00:49:26.040 Or, well, I went from Edmonton to Calgary to other talks and then we're here.

00:49:30.200 Awesome.

00:49:30.600 Yeah, awesome.

00:49:31.300 And so you were attending some of the other protests.

00:49:33.580 What's the vibe like?

00:49:34.660 Lots of the media out there is saying that these are violent people and they're angry people and they're extremists.

00:49:39.320 What have you seen?

00:49:40.100 Oh, people are so happy.

00:49:41.780 Like, we're just, it's like a big party, you know, we're all just hanging out.

00:49:44.120 People are so nice and kind and just some of the best people that I've seen, really.

00:49:48.560 It's really fun.

00:49:49.500 Even the police officer on our way in, there's a little chick stuff. 1.00

00:49:52.420 And the police officer said, yeah, it's been pretty peaceful, pretty quiet.

00:49:55.720 So that's really nice.

00:49:57.060 Other than the happiness and the sounds of cheering, there hasn't been much other noise.

00:50:02.100 Honking as well, yeah.

00:50:03.380 Well, after the truckers proceeded to make one heck of a lot of noise,

00:50:07.920 it's standing up for their freedoms and standing against vaccine mandates.

00:50:12.240 The RCMP, who have now established, as I mentioned, a secondary blockade in Milk River,

00:50:18.300 have indicated that there would be no more negotiations or conversations tonight whatsoever.

00:50:24.320 People would be allowed to leave, but absolutely no one would be allowed to come in.

00:50:28.080 So it seems for the night anyways, the situation has culminated in a bit of a stalemate.

00:50:33.120 The moods are still high among the protesters here who are eating brisket, standing around fires,

00:50:39.760 singing songs together, and once again, they insist that they aren't here for the long haul.

00:50:45.200 We will be back at it tomorrow once again, of course, covering this story like no one else in the world.

00:50:50.860 I want to thank you all so much for tuning in.

00:50:52.860 For Rebel News, I'm Adam Sose.

00:50:54.780 Well, good news, everybody.

00:50:59.440 Rebel News has decided to help us out with lawyer fees, which we really appreciate.

00:51:04.920 Thank you, guys.

00:51:06.300 Ezra Levant just gave us a call and said that whatever fees wasn't covered by Trucker...

00:51:12.660 What's the website there?

00:51:15.420 No.

00:51:18.060 TruckerLawyer.

00:51:19.420 TruckerLawyer.ca

00:51:20.620 So whatever's not covered, the shortfall, he would cover himself.

00:51:27.040 Personally.

00:51:27.700 So just wanted to let you guys know, really good news.

00:51:31.060 We've got good guys on our side.

00:51:33.080 We really appreciate it.

00:51:42.480 So thank you, everybody, for donating.
