Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ New report reveals plan to 'confront' Canadians deemed 'antifeminist'

00:00:00.000 Hello, my friends. I did something I didn't want to do. I read through a report by the

00:00:04.980 Parliamentary Committee on the Status of Women on how to fight against anti-feminist ideology.

00:00:11.320 Oh my God. I think this is the worst government report I've ever read. Of course,

00:00:15.360 it calls for censorship, but it calls for a hundred other nutty things,

00:00:19.120 including going into sports locker rooms, I'm not making this up,

00:00:22.560 and telling coaches and kids to be less masculine. I will prove it to you.

00:00:27.480 I'll show you the quotes

00:00:29.440 that's why I want you to get what we call Rebel News Plus

00:00:31.760 it's the video version of this podcast

00:00:36.740 it's the video version of this podcast

00:00:38.800 and it helps us stay alive

00:00:42.160 because we get no money from the government

00:00:44.200 and it shows

00:00:45.180 that's why we rely on you and Rebel News Plus 0.98

00:00:57.480 Why does the liberal government say it needs to confront people who aren't feminist?

00:01:09.200 It's July 3rd, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:11.620 Shame on you, you censorious bug. 0.88

00:01:17.880 what exactly is feminism it's a used to be an easy question to answer merriam webster the 1.00

00:01:32.100 dictionary says it's quote belief in an advocacy of the political economic and social equality of 0.78

00:01:39.220 the sexes expressed especially through organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests

00:01:45.440 And that's just so cute. That should be in a museum. That is not what feminism means in

00:01:51.500 2026, at least. Equality of the sexes, we blew by that a generation ago, maybe two generations ago. 1.00

00:02:00.460 60 to 70 percent of med schools and law schools in Canada are women. I saw a stat the other day

00:02:06.740 that 72 percent of judges in France are women. There's no more equality. They talk about equity,

00:02:14.960 which really means whatever a judge or a politician thinks is fair, but we blew by equality a long

00:02:20.580 time ago. Oh, we don't have equality in certain professions, mind you, like being a roughneck on

00:02:27.220 an oil rig or other hard, dirty work, like being a lineman. You know what a lineman is? There's a

00:02:33.340 reason it's not called a line woman. There are differences between the sexes, and that's fine 1.00

00:02:40.000 if it goes one way but not the other apparently women as you probably know live four years longer

00:02:47.720 than men men are four times more likely to be murdered than women men are twice as likely to

00:02:54.060 be the victim of a violent crime as women are and are three times as likely to be charged with a

00:02:59.600 crime and 15 times more likely to be in prison now by the way i think that makes sense because

00:03:06.740 I think generally men are more rambunctious, but imagine if those stats were flipped, if

00:03:12.420 women had those social afflictions, there'd be no end to talking about equalizing it. 0.94

00:03:19.080 Women make up the bulk of teachers, of course, and that's fine. 1.00

00:03:22.380 I think teaching and nursing are by nature nurturing professions, but layered on top 1.00

00:03:28.660 of that for the past generation, at least has been a feminism of pushing boys down and 0.92

00:03:34.180 pulling girls up.

00:03:35.180 The simplest example is the theory that teachers should not call on boys in class, even if they have their hands up. 0.89

00:03:44.480 Now, I don't think it's controversial in 2026 to point out that not just universities, but high school and even grade schools have an explicitly feminist agenda. 0.99

00:03:53.420 Just think of the billions spent on recruiting women to take STEM courses, science, tech, engineering, math. 1.00

00:03:59.060 But if you artificially promote some people in a profession, you are by definition artificially holding back other people.

00:04:06.780 And if you're acknowledging that it's okay to judge people and treat them differently, to discriminate based on sex or other irrelevant criteria, you're teaching quite a lesson, aren't you?

00:04:17.940 I look back at feminist battles of a century ago, right to vote, economic rights, legal rights, and of course I'd be a feminist if that was the definition, the Merriam-Webster definition.

00:04:27.980 But it's a bit different in 2026 where, say, for example, most government jobs and many jobs in institutions like universities or banks or big corporations, they have expressly pro-female, anti-male discrimination hardwired right into them with things like hiring and promotions. 1.00

00:04:46.320 and there are female empires within organizations called HR departments. 1.00

00:04:52.520 Feminism and Feminine Politics is what literally 80% of the staff at Twitter 1.00

00:04:58.800 used to do before Elon Musk bought the place. 1.00

00:05:02.440 I heard it was this particular video that made him lay off 80% of the staff.

00:05:08.960 Welcome to a day in my life as a Twitter employee.

00:05:12.740 so this past week went to SF for the first time at a Twitter office, badged in, honestly took a

00:05:19.820 moment to just soak everything in. What a blessing. Also started my morning off with an iced matcha

00:05:25.560 from the perch. Then I had a meeting, so quickly scheduled one of these little pod rooms, which

00:05:31.780 were so cool. They're literally noise canceling. Took my meeting, got ready for a bunch. Look how

00:05:37.380 delicious this food looks. Oh my goodness, I was so overwhelmed. Then made my way down to this log

00:05:44.060 cabin area. I don't know what this is, but it was really cool. I played some food with all of my

00:05:48.820 friends to kind of unwind a bit. Also found this really cool meditation room that I thought was

00:05:57.200 super neat. I didn't do any yoga, but they have this yoga room if you are a yogi, so also thought

00:06:04.420 that was really cool um had a couple more meetings in the afternoon had a ton of projects that we

00:06:09.880 needed to knock out so hi to my teammates um went to the went to the library to kind of get some

00:06:16.280 more work done obviously had to have our afternoon coffee so made some espresso and then before

00:06:22.760 leaving for the day had some red wine on that's on tap went up to the rooftop and just honestly

00:06:29.980 enjoyed the beautiful weather so awesome trip i should say in the past few years feminism

00:06:36.500 has been attacked from the inside i'm talking of course about men saying they're women so many

00:06:45.240 women are terrified about calling out such men uh contests and prizes for woman of the year

00:06:51.860 beauty contests that sort of thing they're all being colonized by male to female transgender 0.99

00:06:58.160 or activist. It's sort of pitiful how few politicians will answer the obvious question,

00:07:03.720 what is a woman? Like I say, ask me if I'm a feminist, and I don't think I can answer you 0.99

00:07:09.060 until you tell me what you mean, what kind of feminist you're asking about. If you mean equality 1.00

00:07:13.980 before the law, that cute old-timey definition from Merriam-Webster, then you bet I am. If you

00:07:19.320 mean anti-male activism, then no thank you. All of which brings me to the news today. This document,

00:07:26.980 62 page study called confronting anti-feminist ideologies in canada it's a report of the standing

00:07:36.200 committee on the status of women it's a parliamentary report so we're not even talking

00:07:41.160 about equality anymore we're way past that we're not even talking about equity or feminism or

00:07:46.920 gender marxism you know dividing the world into oppressors and the oppressed which is most woke

00:07:52.160 thinking i mean if you're a man obviously you're a oppressor if you're a white man you're obviously

00:07:57.040 a double oppressor if you're straight i mean that that's how the world is seen now oppressed and

00:08:01.960 oppressors but we're talking about how to stop people from disagreeing with feminism now that's

00:08:09.060 the whole title of this report how to stop people from disagreeing with the government's ideology

00:08:16.060 they're not even pretending to spend anything else the very first sentence in the report is a 0.99

00:08:21.560 whopper i'll read it to you anti-feminist ideologies are gaining prominence in canada 0.98

00:08:26.640 and around the world these ideologies harm people of all genders you notice they don't say both

00:08:32.180 contribute to violence against women and gender diverse people you see what i mean about

00:08:38.140 even feminists being colonized by transgenderism and shape public discourse in a way that undermines

00:08:44.860 progress towards gender equality. The first sentence there defines people who disagree with 0.99

00:08:51.620 the government as evil, as violent, as wrong. They're not critics. They're not opponents. They're

00:08:57.600 not disagreeers. They're not the official opposition. They're not citizens who have a

00:09:01.760 different point of view. They are evil. That's the entire premise here. And look at what they

00:09:07.480 plan to do. Well, more of the same. Witnesses identified several key measures to prevent and

00:09:13.520 counter the spread of anti-feminism in Canada, including enhancing public awareness and digital

00:09:19.360 literacy, particularly among youth. Translation, we'll tell you what to believe. Addressing online

00:09:26.580 harms and regulating digital platforms. Translation, censorship. Increasing diverse representation of

00:09:33.400 workplaces, including supporting women's participation in politics and ensuring access

00:09:37.860 to positive role models. Translation, more sex-based quotas. Improved funding for programs 0.85

00:09:45.020 and services that work to combat gender-based violence and support women and gender-diverse

00:09:50.220 people. Translation, more cash for their political friends. Developing strategies to engage men and

00:09:56.800 boys in advancing gender equality, including through early intervention. Translation,

00:10:01.500 we have to emasculate the men. I'll keep going here a bit.

00:10:05.180 continued funding for canadian media including local and diverse sources translation will bribe

00:10:13.100 the regime media but only if they agree with us and finally expanding data collection research 0.95

00:10:19.360 and reporting to better understand and respond to anti-feminist ideologies in canada translation 0.99

00:10:23.940 we're going to give a bunch of money to professors to create a fake scholarship around this they have

00:10:30.120 14 recommendations i'm just going to read a few of them okay recommendation one that the government

00:10:36.120 of canada while respecting the jurisdiction of and in consultation and collaboration with provinces

00:10:42.020 territories and indigenous peoples and governments support public awareness campaigns to counteract

00:10:47.700 anti-feminist rhetoric which target a range of audiences including parents and youth 0.96

00:10:52.120 and in particular young men and boys by the way that whole preamble there that indigenous stuff

00:10:59.920 that's what they say in front of and every one of their recommendations now or almost all of them

00:11:05.600 it's it's the front line of wokeness it's like a land acknowledgement but for any idea their

00:11:11.780 number one recommendation is anti-masculine propaganda that's their number one idea

00:11:18.000 there's so much craziness in the document i i only talk about uh i can only talk about a few

00:11:24.360 parts of it it's 62 pages if i went through the whole thing i'd be here for hours let me take a

00:11:29.460 few moments, though. Here's another thing they say. The government of Canada, they recommend

00:11:35.960 that the government of Canada table legislation to regulate online platforms, including requirements

00:11:42.900 for stronger moderation of harmful content, measures to protect children, improve transparency

00:11:48.760 mechanisms, and monitoring and reporting requirements for platforms. So they're not

00:11:54.840 talking about banning anything illegal obviously illegal things are illegal they're talking about

00:12:00.100 banning politics or as the title of the report says confronting people who don't agree with

00:12:05.460 their feminism and if they can't convince people they're just going to ban them it's also weird

00:12:12.480 that they want to pay for women to go into stem but also pay for men to become artists they want

00:12:20.700 to emasculate men i'm not saying men can't be great artists many of the great artists of all

00:12:25.540 time have been men but to steer women into stem and steer women steer men away let me read

00:12:32.700 recommendation six and i'm going to start with the land acknowledgement type thing

00:12:37.800 that the government of canada while respecting the jurisdiction of and in consultation and

00:12:42.480 collaboration with provinces territories and indigenous peoples and governments

00:12:46.020 increase funding for programs that support young women and girls in science technology engineering

00:12:52.200 math and in the skilled trades and apprenticeship programs and i'm just going to skip over the land

00:12:57.500 acknowledgement part fund programs that support young men and boys in the health education arts

00:13:04.500 literacy and sports sectors so they want men to become nurses they want men to be kindergarten

00:13:10.880 teachers that kind of thing oh and we can't trust democracy on its own by the way these things have

00:13:17.460 to be managed recommendation eight that the government of canada increase support for 0.98

00:13:22.600 programs and initiatives that encourage women to enter and participate in politics at all levels

00:13:27.780 you might even call that sexism what's interesting to me is that they assume every woman is a feminist

00:13:33.780 and and uh a woke feminist and that the problem is men there's one exception i'll get to it later

00:13:39.860 you can probably guess now they've found the enemy by the way and it is men but they couldn't

00:13:47.460 really say that could they they can't say that men are the enemy so they they say that the manosphere

00:13:54.120 is an enemy the manosphere and the role of anti-feminist influencers and we just quote them

00:14:02.200 you know in the manosphere it's two clicks of an algorithm and then all control is lost 0.67

00:14:08.080 Boys start looking at something on botting building on their cell phone, and it leads 0.98

00:14:11.880 to anti-feminist content.

00:14:13.900 Yeah, there's nothing worse than young boys wanting to be physically fit.

00:14:18.300 There really is a feminist leftist movement against men exercising. 0.89

00:14:22.140 Like, they just think that's a gateway drug to being right-wing.

00:14:25.420 And, you know, I think they're actually right.

00:14:28.060 They brought in a few actual men to talk to them.

00:14:30.760 That must have been very nerve-wracking. 0.74

00:14:32.140 I'm sure they had a lot of extra security at the Women's Status Committee.

00:14:35.860 but it really feels like um the kind of men they spoke to are the kind of men who did that

00:14:42.120 men for kamala harris video remember that video i mean i i have 54 years of experience being a man

00:14:49.100 i i know that uh i'm not an expert on being a man but i know what being a man is and it ain't this

00:14:55.800 i'm a man i'm a man i'm a man man and i'm man enough i'm man enough to enjoy a barrel proof

00:15:02.720 Neat.

00:15:09.720 You think I'm afraid to rebuild a carburetor?

00:15:11.720 I eat carburetors for breakfast.

00:15:12.720 I ain't afraid of bears.

00:15:13.720 That's what bear hugs are for.

00:15:15.720 I'll tell you another thing I'm sure as I'm not afraid of. 1.00

00:15:18.720 Women. 1.00

00:15:32.880 Well, I hope she has the guts to look me right in the eye 1.00

00:15:35.120 and accept my full-throated endorsement.

00:15:37.220 Because I'm man enough to support women.

00:15:38.960 Man enough to know what kind of donuts I like.

00:15:41.460 Man enough to admit I'm lost,

00:15:43.160 even when I refuse to ask for directions.

00:15:45.140 Man enough to not ban young women

00:15:47.240 from reading Little Women.

00:15:48.440 Or one of those pants books that the sisters like. 0.60

00:15:50.800 I'm man enough to raw dog a flight. 0.76

00:15:52.840 It sucked.

00:15:54.040 Not worth it.

00:15:55.080 I'm man enough to be emotional in front of my wife.

00:15:57.720 In front of my kids.

00:15:58.640 In front of my horse.

00:16:00.720 I'm man enough to tell you that I cry at love actually.

00:16:03.440 Goodwill hunting.

00:16:04.300 West side story.

00:16:05.220 Fact and predator.

00:16:06.540 And I'm sick of so-called men domineering, belittling, and controlling women just so they can feel more powerful.

00:16:12.820 That's not how my mama raised me. 1.00

00:16:14.600 I love women. 1.00

00:16:15.480 I love women who support their families.

00:16:17.420 Women who decide not to have families.

00:16:19.340 Women who take charge. 0.65

00:16:20.540 And I'm man enough to help them win. 0.96

00:16:23.400 Seriously, that's the kind of men they consulted.

00:16:25.800 Here's what the report says.

00:16:26.960 Quote,

00:16:27.280 Jean-Michel Dubé-Rousseau, executive director of Partage au Masculin, told the committee that certain expectations associated with traditional ideas of masculinity, in which, quote,

00:16:38.900 a man must cope on his own, needs to be strong, must never falter, and is not allowed to show his emotions or show weakness, represent ideals of toxic masculinity.

00:16:51.020 Now, before I talk about what he said, imagine being the executive director of a government

00:16:55.060 funded anti-male, anti-male men's group.

00:16:59.460 All those things he just listed, by the way, he said they were bad things to work hard,

00:17:05.540 to carry a load, not to complain, to keep your thoughts to yourself.

00:17:09.100 The word toxic masculinity is repeated throughout this report, but they never define toxic.

00:17:15.060 It's just like using the word bad.

00:17:17.120 Basically, anything they disagree with is toxic.

00:17:20.260 And by the way, that's men.

00:17:23.420 Imagine being strong, showing strength, not complaining, and calling that toxic masculinity.

00:17:28.420 Isn't that something that all men should aim for?

00:17:31.000 And saying we have to fight against that and to counter-educate young men who are becoming strong like that.

00:17:37.540 You know, the study cites, I thought this was incredible.

00:17:40.740 It made me think twice, though.

00:17:42.140 The study cites, quote, climate-related anxiety.

00:17:46.800 as a source for young men to be stressed.

00:17:49.360 And at first I laughed at that, but you know what?

00:17:51.740 I thought about it, and I think it's actually true.

00:17:54.380 I think for a generation, we have terrified and terrorized young people

00:17:58.940 about the state of the future.

00:18:00.520 We've whipped up this doomsday apocalyptic scenario.

00:18:04.620 I think it's been a psychological demoralization campaign

00:18:09.160 against the entire West, against life, against energy,

00:18:12.780 against strength, against growth, against sex.

00:18:16.420 and families and children really and of course it's led by an asexual woman child like Greta

00:18:21.640 Tunberg look at this story I mean I don't know if you saw this online just in the last week

00:18:26.880 my bloodline ends with me why feminist child-free icon wants fewer white babies and more refugees

00:18:35.260 you know that's anti-male but it's also anti-female isn't it it's just anti-life 0.99

00:18:39.960 and they want masculine women and they want feminine men i think they want to confuse people

00:18:48.660 and this whole government status of rights status of women committee is at the leading edge of it

00:18:55.040 social isolation a lack of meaningful community and mental health challenges

00:19:00.640 were also identified as contributing risk factors for engagement with anti-feminist

00:19:05.560 ideologies you know again i thought about that for a second and there's some truth to it i mean a lot

00:19:11.080 of things are caused by that and and who did that who caused people to feel alone and neurotic and

00:19:18.620 scared i'm not just talking about the climate change stuff who told young men they couldn't

00:19:22.640 go to school for two years because it was too dangerous who told young men that they had to

00:19:28.660 be afraid that they had to stop socializing they had to stop leaving the house they had to stop

00:19:32.560 going to the gym they had to stop visiting with friends they had to stop going to family dinners

00:19:37.080 they had to stop going on dates who did that to them well a woman named theresa tam of course 0.95

00:19:43.140 the whole government that brought you covet lockdowns will they take any blame for that

00:19:48.180 i think there's some truth in that part in that way this study is correct by destroying real

00:19:53.960 social lives the government pushed everyone onto their cell phones and by the way the messages of

00:19:59.700 masculinity that young men could find on their phones are much more compelling than the ideas

00:20:05.160 that ooze out of, you know, towards young men from the feminist state. I mean, if you are living in

00:20:12.420 a COVID dystopia and the government is pushing the likes of Greta Thunberg on you, why wouldn't

00:20:17.420 you seek out someone who is strong and bold and courageous? You certainly can't find it in your

00:20:22.580 own life that part was an interesting read i felt like i was reading a diary though written by an

00:20:30.060 alien that had come to earth and didn't quite understand humans it was like that kamala harris

00:20:34.240 ad for men i don't think the people who wrote this study actually really know what a man is

00:20:39.620 other than their hand-picked feminist men that they brought in but in this case it was feminist

00:20:45.520 women writing about young men and let me read to you part of their critique on the manosphere

00:20:50.380 They have an example, young men trying to get in shape and groom themselves to be more

00:20:56.020 attractive to women.

00:20:57.420 Quote, Chan explained that language and terms, for example, looks maxing, the process of

00:21:03.420 maximizing one's physical attractiveness through sometimes extreme means, originating from

00:21:08.540 some of the more extreme anti-feminist sub-communities within the manosphere, like incels, are becoming

00:21:14.260 more normalized and used by men and boys in everyday conversation.

00:21:17.240 the committee heard that the views expressed in the manosphere do not stay online

00:21:21.980 has stick unnoted while we often talk about online influencers

00:21:26.600 these messages don't stay on screens these online views ultimately spread into physical spaces like

00:21:34.040 playgrounds classrooms family gatherings locker rooms and sports arenas well we better stop that

00:21:40.580 eh we better stop the looks maxing we want people to be ugly and like i say they want masculine 0.99

00:21:46.080 women and feminine men. They want people to be ugly. The committee heard that young men's 1.00

00:21:53.340 insecurities are being weaponized in ways that make them willing to spend money, for example,

00:21:57.980 on fitness-related products. Well, oh my God, do you mean to say that fitness gyms and clubs and

00:22:05.460 products, that they're trying to get people to buy stuff? If you're going to tell me that marketers

00:22:10.520 sometimes use sex to sell products that would be crazy oh my god it's like talking to people who

00:22:18.480 don't know quite what what men are it's like an alien come down from outer space now this was 1.00

00:22:24.660 interesting to me uh non-feminist women were given two whole sentences in the report and they were

00:22:32.600 essentially accused of being traitors to their sex let me read this this is how they describe women

00:22:38.460 who prefer a traditional lifestyle, 0.90

00:22:41.480 being a mom, a homemaker,

00:22:43.260 as opposed to the rat race.

00:22:44.800 Here's what they say.

00:22:46.480 The committee also heard about the Trad Wife Movement,

00:22:49.880 short for traditional wife,

00:22:51.420 in which influencers advocate for women

00:22:53.400 to embrace traditional gender roles, 0.97

00:22:55.420 especially homemaking.

00:22:56.980 In a brief from Aura Freedom International,

00:23:00.720 the committee heard that both Manosphere content

00:23:02.900 targeting young men

00:23:03.940 and Trad Wife content aimed at women

00:23:06.300 promotes misogyny anti-equality misinformation and idealizes patriarchal roles so being a mom

00:23:16.240 or a housewife is anti-equality you see it's patriarchal you see and if you disagree with

00:23:22.380 that or if you think women should have the ability to choose to be homemakers well then you need to

00:23:27.220 be programmed reprogrammed re-educated or if not at least censored the scary part is their plans

00:23:35.160 to reprogram you and more likely the mind of your children you're probably too late let me read 1.00

00:23:39.700 one way to combat anti-feminist rhetoric is through raising awareness and public education 0.99

00:23:44.640 as michelle doré professor emeritus université laval urged awareness is quote an essential first

00:23:51.640 step the committee heard about the importance of public awareness campaigns to counter disinformation

00:23:56.780 about feminism and gender-based violence karen yan discussed pre-bunking which involves educating

00:24:04.280 people before they are exposed to misinformation or violent messages so that they are better 0.64

00:24:08.820 prepared and able to think critically about those issues. Haddish urged that, quote, anti-feminist

00:24:14.940 thinking can be reduced through early education, specifically on healthy masculinities, on consent, 0.96

00:24:21.400 on healthy relationships. Imagine their plans for your children. Imagine having the government

00:24:27.600 saying your opinions aren't just wrong or unreasonable. They need to be pushed out of you.

00:24:34.480 The government needs to reprogram you. Let me quote. The committee heard about the importance

00:24:40.140 of countering anti-feminist ideologies in sport, including in locker rooms and sports arenas. 0.99

00:24:46.660 Stika told the committee that anti-feminist messages are reinforced in locker rooms from 0.96

00:24:50.900 coaches who mock anything soft. Well, you know, there's some truth to it. Winning sports teams

00:24:57.080 are about excellence and merit and objective achievement. Those are masculine virtues,

00:25:03.220 typically. Sports is a masculine approach, as opposed to a more feminine approach, which might

00:25:08.920 be everyone is a winner, you get a participation medal, you all did your best, let's not keep score,

00:25:15.700 everyone did great. Well, no, that's not how elite sports are. And objective merit is a

00:25:23.520 masculine concept, but this committee is at war with them. You know, the word regulating appears

00:25:29.940 nearly a dozen times in the report. They want to persuade you. If they can't do that, they'll

00:25:35.060 re-educate you. If they can't do that, they'll work on your kids. They tell sports teams to stop

00:25:40.040 being so competitive, to tell young men to stop working out, yada, yada, yada. But what they

00:25:44.780 really, really want to do, since they know they can't convince you, is to regulate you and to

00:25:50.380 censor you. Let me quote. Big tech companies are getting away with pretty much no accountability

00:25:56.940 for the harms being caused to young people, they say. Of course, harms, they just mean a different

00:26:02.600 point of view than themselves. Overall, some expressed concerns about social media business

00:26:08.120 models and design features like algorithms and user anonymity. They want to make it illegal for

00:26:13.520 you to go online anonymously. That can contribute to harm. The committee heard that regulating spaces

00:26:19.460 should include requiring content moderation and dealing with harmful or mis- and disinformation. 1.00

00:26:26.500 So if you're not a feminist, that's misinformation. It's not a different opinion, you see. 0.92

00:26:31.940 You're just simply wrong, evil, deluded. They have to fix you. If you're not feminist enough,

00:26:39.900 they're going to ban you. They're going to censor you, correct you. If your social media platform 1.00

00:26:44.060 allows it, they'll ban them too. Imagine having the government tell you what's true or not about

00:26:48.700 feminism. These are the same people who can't even tell you what a woman is. Here's an idea 1.00

00:26:54.920 they liked. Quote, an example of video games where the voice chat options, the game is designed to

00:27:01.600 immediately implement mute functionality when it recognizes toxic or harmful words through voice

00:27:08.400 modulation analysis and capacity to identify expletives. Imagine that you're playing a video

00:27:14.980 game and you're chatting with your friends and if you say something toxic on a video game they will

00:27:19.760 mute you i could go on it's a long study but it's too much already and you know who the co-author

00:27:27.740 of this report was let me just end on this because it's the cherry on the cake you know who the co-chair

00:27:32.640 of this committee was the fake former conservative mp marilyn gladiou who was elected to be a

00:27:41.240 conservative, who promised she was socially conservative, but then she was bribed by Mark

00:27:46.040 Carney. She defected to the liberals, and this is what she co-wrote. She is so gross, and so is this

00:27:53.440 feminist, censorious group of bullies. Just so gross. Stay with us for more. 1.00

00:28:00.100 Firearms are an interesting subject in that the left uses firearms in a way to demonize

00:28:15.740 conservative law-abiding gun owners because guns are used in crimes.

00:28:21.400 This is a way to delegitimize and put conservatives on the back foot, even though law-abiding firearms

00:28:27.680 owners are amongst the safest and most responsible people around. In fact, I am unaware of a single

00:28:34.120 registered firearm by a licensed user being used in a crime since I can remember. I don't know if

00:28:42.020 it's frankly ever happened, but on the same token, actual gun crime is skyrocketing, obviously by

00:28:50.780 either restricted firearms or licensed firearms for which the owner has no license. I mean,

00:28:56.260 It goes to figure if you're willing to use a gun to commit an actual violent crime, you're probably willing to skip the paperwork part of owning a firearm.

00:29:06.600 And so when you have horrific events like a week or so ago, there was a murder in Montreal by a gunman who killed a cop and it was it was mayhem in a Jewish neighborhood.

00:29:19.680 and he left a manifesto, obviously politics quickly jumped in.

00:29:25.060 And joining us now to talk a little bit about that

00:29:26.880 and to contrast the political reaction to the Montreal Mirror

00:29:30.460 with other gun news is Blair Hagan.

00:29:34.160 He's the executive vice president of Canada's National Firearms Association,

00:29:38.860 and he joins us now.

00:29:40.100 Good to see you again, Blair. Thanks for taking the time.

00:29:42.660 When we all saw and heard on the news of this gun, of this shooter, and it was actually filmed, the horrific moments were caught on cell phone footage, which is not rare these days.

00:29:57.200 It wasn't long before the CBC and other regime media started to report on a manifesto by the killer.

00:30:06.740 But they only selected certain elements of his manifesto and refused to publish the whole thing.

00:30:12.020 it felt a rebel news to publish the whole thing what are your thoughts on the choices made by the

00:30:18.180 dominant regime media on which parts of the manifesto to emphasize and which parts to ignore

00:30:24.080 yeah that's exactly right uh very shortly afterwards and of course the uh killer's

00:30:30.220 manifesto uh became public fairly quickly mainstream media outlets chose to go with a

00:30:36.600 certain narrative. And it's one that we're pretty familiar with. And that was the elements of

00:30:42.620 misogyny, the hatred of women that were part of that manifesto. But it was, you know, a very,

00:30:49.980 very stark that they were obviously ignoring the other parts. You know, that manifesto was a toxic

00:30:57.360 soup of really harmful ideologies and attitudes. And the fact that mainstream media and certain

00:31:04.820 special interest groups would choose to ignore that to advance their own narrative certainly

00:31:09.360 struck us as is very very irresponsible and something we wanted to speak out on yeah i read

00:31:14.940 the uh we we received it late at night and and i skimmed it before we published it to the world

00:31:20.820 and one of the things that i mean it was a 104 page document so i didn't wait to carefully read

00:31:26.840 the whole thing before we published it we were fairly sure of its uh veracity before we published

00:31:33.180 it I did a word search I looked for certain words in it and there were some anti-feminist

00:31:39.900 comments in it for sure but that absolutely was not dominant the word Marxist Leninist words like

00:31:46.040 that were like salt and pepper throughout the whole thing he actually praised Mao Zedong and

00:31:52.840 Stalin he praised them for their violence so he was a hardcore left-wing radical who wanted to

00:31:59.500 disarm and censor ordinary people. Like his vision of a world with total government surveillance of

00:32:07.420 our emails was quite shocking. But that made it in none of the early reports from the media that

00:32:15.720 got the early, I mean, none of them mentioned that he was a communist. None of them mentioned

00:32:20.060 that he was anti-Semitic because they wanted to portray him as some right-wing conservative.

00:32:25.860 here's a question for you Blair the murderer apparently was a student at the University of

00:32:33.540 Lethbridge studying philosophy and he did very well he was on the dean's list like he got high

00:32:39.120 marks and what I want to know is how can someone go through a university and you of Lethbridge is

00:32:45.060 quite left-wing you'd be surprised it's in Lethbridge which is a right-wing city but you've

00:32:49.560 got this left-wing university and this kid goes in there and who knows what's pumped into his head

00:32:55.020 about marxism and leninism and fight the man and i don't think we've poked around enough at what

00:33:02.000 radicalized this guy um and the fact that the mainstream media wanted us to have a certain

00:33:08.100 answer to that tells me it's a very sensitive question to them yeah absolutely right and i

00:33:13.820 think that's one of the most disturbing parts of this okay uh you know there's there's lots of uh

00:33:19.480 political discourse on university campuses that sort of thing lots of ideological things going on

00:33:24.800 But the fact that this individual would take that and arrive across the country to Montreal and perpetrate, you know, this this heinous act of violence is really, really concerning.

00:33:37.240 And it's it's not something maybe we're used to in Canada, but unfortunately, I think it's becoming more and more prevalent.

00:33:44.020 We got to start looking at, you know, what's being taught there, how it's being accepted and the messages that contribute to an act like this.

00:33:51.900 Because if we don't, there's going to be more and more of this.

00:33:55.900 And certainly, and you know this, the civil discourse in this country has just gone into the toilet.

00:34:03.800 There is no respect for civil discourse.

00:34:08.340 There is no respect for other opinions, other political views.

00:34:16.180 And the demonization, I think, really contributed to this act.

00:34:19.680 You can read that in the manifesto. I think it's incumbent upon especially mainstream media and certain political actors to say, hey, we better take a step back here and take a look at what we are teaching people, teaching our kids and that type of violence that might result from that.

00:34:41.720 Well, I mean, I just don't know the answer to that, but it wouldn't surprise me if these days Antifa style violence is taught in university. It's in vogue in America. I mean, the assassination of that senior health care executive by allegedly by Luigi Mangione, Hassan Piker recommending assassinations and violence.

00:35:03.320 Antifa is cool, at least on the left, and I think we have to address it.

00:35:08.120 But let me talk about what I think is a real firearms issue.

00:35:11.780 And I raise this because the left wants to turn everything into a firearms issue other than real firearms issues.

00:35:20.180 And here's some footage.

00:35:22.020 And I see different versions of this almost every day online.

00:35:26.020 What appear to be, I can't make it out necessarily by the imagery, but Sikh activists who want to use military force or even terrorism to have a Sikh independent homeland in India, and they're operating in Canada with what appears to be an armed militia.

00:35:51.420 And it looks like, and I've seen reports that this is in B.C. and in Ontario, of a bunch of guys going out and just firing off hundreds of rounds.

00:36:01.640 Whether or not the firearms are lawful is highly dubious.

00:36:05.760 Shooting just into the wilderness like that is illegal.

00:36:09.420 This is not at a gun range.

00:36:10.600 These guys are, clearly this is a flex.

00:36:14.400 And we've seen this at the same time as criminal gangs writing to the police and saying we've got a thousand foot soldiers.

00:36:21.420 It seems to me that instead of dealing with those issues, which are probably prickly because of the racial and ethnic and immigration status, the government would rather go after a right-wing anti-feminist shooter rather than what looks like a terrorist militia gathering force in Canada.

00:36:40.680 Yeah, and that's disturbing.

00:36:42.820 And a lot of this is used to support the liberal gun grab.

00:36:47.180 You know, look at this irresponsible, illicit use of firearms.

00:36:50.260 Look, extremist organizations are always going to ignore the law. I think it's pretty disturbing that they would feel emboldened enough to put this up on social media, to actually film yourself doing this, knowing the potential results of that.

00:37:06.980 There may be a lot of ignorance to the law here.

00:37:10.200 There's certain ethnic and language considerations that you might want to take into consideration.

00:37:16.420 But the fact of the matter is extremist organizations, well, they're going to ignore the laws anyways.

00:37:22.000 They're certainly going to ignore the federal liberal gun grab.

00:37:25.320 And again, law enforcement resources are currently being directed at that gun grab.

00:37:31.220 That is the priority for the Liberal government, not enforcing certainly the laws that all Canadians agree on.

00:37:40.080 Well, Blair, I saw a tweet from Langley RCMP showing what their law enforcement priorities are.

00:37:46.960 And it was an image of a rainbow LGBTQ2SL plus themed crosswalk on a road.

00:37:54.660 So you're supposed to drive on it.

00:37:56.740 And apparently someone on a motorbike skidded, left a skid track on the road where this LGBTQQSL plus crosswalk was.

00:38:06.980 And the Langley police are asking for the public's help to track down Langley RCMP investigating rainbow crosswalk vandalism.

00:38:17.260 And by vandalism, they mean leaving a little bit of rubber on the road there.

00:38:21.040 So it's not, you know, lone wolf murderers.

00:38:25.480 It's not these massive foreign gangs.

00:38:28.760 Some guys who don't like a pride crosswalk are the top crime law enforcement priority of Langley RCMP.

00:38:36.740 Where you couldn't make it up in a movie, no one would buy it.

00:38:39.700 It's just too ridiculous.

00:38:40.620 Last word to you.

00:38:42.500 Is 2026 going to be a year where our freedoms, including our property rights to own firearms, diminish further?

00:38:50.740 Or is it going to be a year where maybe we'll have where the pendulum will swing back?

00:38:57.180 What's your prediction for the rest of the year?

00:38:59.860 Boy, that's a tough one.

00:39:01.260 We have seen the federal liberals back off their October 30th deadline for the amnesty for possession of OIC firearms.

00:39:11.780 They were kind of in a situation where they had to do that.

00:39:14.660 They use the current Supreme Court case as an excuse to delay it again.

00:39:19.680 That amnesty is extended until three months after that court case, whenever that may take place.

00:39:28.080 It's really tough. I don't expect the federal liberals to back off any of their anti-freedom, anti-firearm policies.

00:39:36.180 They will continue to pursue them as long as they are in government.

00:39:39.260 And they can do so at their leisure, because basically, you know, when they're in government, there's there's really not a lot of ways you can stop this besides the legal system.

00:39:51.440 And that's a very, very difficult way to try to stop it, as you know.

00:39:55.580 So I think we're kind of in this weird period where there's going to be some things happening through the year.

00:40:01.900 Are they going to be definitive? No.

00:40:03.740 But I know that you, the folks at Rebel, certainly the folks at Canada's National Firearms Association will continue to stand up and fight for the rights, freedoms and property of Canadians.

00:40:15.260 All right. And let's keep our eyes peeled for those crosswalk of handles.

00:40:18.880 I mean, they're out there. They're out there unjailed.

00:40:23.300 I mean, anyone could be at risk.

00:40:25.340 Blair Hagan, Executive VP of the National Firearms Association.

00:40:28.700 Great to see you. Thanks for taking the time.

00:40:33.740 Hey, welcome back.

00:40:39.920 Your letters to me about the pipeline announcement or pipeline proposal.

00:40:44.780 I don't know what you want to call it.

00:40:46.400 Lori Bromberg says there's going to be no pipeline.

00:40:49.020 These criminals are destroying Alberta.

00:40:51.000 Well, there is a pipeline that's sold out.

00:40:53.800 It's called the Southboat Pipeline, and it's sort of where the old Keystone Excel path was.

00:40:59.700 And they just did what's called an open season.

00:41:02.740 And so they called and they contacted different oil producers and said, will you commit to

00:41:07.520 shipping oil in our pipeline for 20 years?

00:41:10.860 And they sold out.

00:41:12.680 They sold out this pipeline for 20 years and they said they're going to announce a final

00:41:17.620 go, no-go decision in a year.

00:41:19.320 So that is a private sector pipeline, doesn't need any government money, and it's going

00:41:23.700 to work.

00:41:25.020 But I don't know if I trust, because it goes south.

00:41:28.420 It doesn't have to cross through British Columbia or Indian bands that are financed by anti-oil extremist groups.

00:41:35.780 Yes, so I'm a pessimist.

00:41:38.620 Ordinary Average Guy says, I'm guessing there's a new bank account that was opened up in the Cayman Islands for Danielle Smith.

00:41:44.360 You're implying that she's somehow financially on the take.

00:41:47.040 I don't believe that.

00:41:48.000 I think she has been wooed by the establishment, by the federal liberals, by the promise that maybe she can fix things.

00:41:59.360 I mean, Justin Trudeau and Stephen Gilboa didn't even pretend, whereas Mark Carney pretends.

00:42:04.740 And I think she's being too optimistic, too naive.

00:42:09.760 I don't think they want a pipeline at all.

00:42:11.700 And even their official plan still puts a pipeline almost a decade away, even if it were to happen.

00:42:18.360 Reboot says, Trudeau said nearly a decade ago that the globalist plan was to shut down

00:42:22.640 the oil and gas industry in Alberta.

00:42:24.540 That put Alberta directly in the crosshairs of globalist policy and acted our world citizen

00:42:29.340 Trudeau's regime.

00:42:30.660 Well, listen, how is Mark Carney any different?

00:42:32.800 Mark Carney was Trudeau's economic advisor.

00:42:35.760 Mark Carney was the founder of something called the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero.

00:42:40.260 It was an international cartel trying to force banks to divest from oil and gas.

00:42:45.840 do you think that mark carney has suddenly had an epiphany and no longer believes the things he

00:42:50.920 believed for 10 years um if you look at how he talks about energy he uses wiggle words oh i'm

00:42:57.540 for clean energy he'll say that because it's a mental reservation he's against the oil sense

00:43:03.540 which he regards as dirty i think mark carney will ensure that no oil pipeline is built i think he's

00:43:10.520 just tricking the West. Well, that's the show for today. Until next time, on behalf of all of us

00:43:16.480 here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
