00:00:00.180 Hello, my friends. I'm in the UK, but my story is about Canada. How Toronto police allowed

00:00:42.380 Tonight, Toronto police let Hamas protesters block a child in an ambulance for four full minutes.
00:00:49.120 It's May 21st, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:00:51.480 You're ready for freedom!
00:00:53.120 Shame on you, you censorious bug!
00:00:57.980 Oh, hi, everybody. I'm still here in the UK. I've decided to record this video from inside
00:01:11.780 my hotel room, which is super tiny. And the lighting isn't great, but it's quiet, unlike
00:01:16.620 the streets of London. I recorded some other videos on the streets, but I'm worried that
00:01:21.120 they were just too hard to hear. But watching myself in the monitor as I record this, I realized
00:01:29.100 what a disaster this haircut was. I should tell you, there was a bit of a language barrier,
00:01:33.660 a bit of a communications error in the barbershop. And I also made a mistake. You know, I usually
00:01:40.180 never get a haircut by anyone under the age of 70. I'm thinking, if you're under 70, you're
00:01:45.800 probably too fashion forward for me. Anyhow, I made the double mistake of getting someone
00:01:49.780 under 70, cutting my hair, and huge language barrier. The good news is it'll partly grow
00:01:55.660 back. Anyways, thank you for letting me get that out of the way. I'm in the UK. I'm coming
00:01:59.580 home tomorrow. I will try and come back here when Tommy Robinson is released from prison.
00:02:05.500 And I thought that was going to be sooner than it is. So I want to get home in the meantime.
00:02:09.640 So something in the news here, there's a Northern Irish band from Northern Ireland that, you know,
00:02:17.620 has a bit of an IRA fetish, but actually these days they're all about Hezbollah, that band
00:02:23.560 terrorist group. They wear Hezbollah colored clothes, including face masks. They pose for photos,
00:02:29.720 reading Hamas or Hezbollah, various Palestinian terrorist groups. They're constantly talking about it
00:02:34.780 and promoting and including on Twitter and, um, also on, on tours where they, where they travel
00:02:41.320 from concert hall to concert hall. Um, anyway, here's some news I saw about the band's leader
00:02:47.200 nicknamed kneecap. I'll just read this to you. A man has been charged with a terrorism offense
00:02:53.700 following an investigation by the Met's counter-terrorism command. Liam Ohana, 27 of Belfast,
00:03:01.480 that's in Northern Ireland, has been charged via postal requisition with displaying a flag in
00:03:07.540 support of Hezbollah, a proscribed organization. Namely, on the 21st of November, 2024, in a public
00:03:15.080 place, namely the O2 Forum, Kenterstown, London, it's a big concert hall, displayed an article,
00:03:22.560 namely a flag, in such a way or in such circumstances as to arouse reasonable suspicion that he is a
00:03:28.560 supporter of a proscribed organization, namely Hezbollah, contrary to section 1, 13, 1b, and 3
00:03:34.740 of the Terrorist Act of 2000. So they've been tracking this guy for six months or so, and for
00:03:41.320 some reason just chose to finally charge him today. So he was just being charged with waving the flag,
00:03:47.760 even though this guy's really creepy and he posts pictures of himself studying Hamas propaganda. It's
00:03:54.320 weird. There are all sorts of terrorist flags in Canada. We see them all the time. Sometimes you see
00:04:01.560 them on video. I'm not talking about the Palestinian flag. I'm talking about the flag for actual terrorist 0.87
00:04:07.500 groups like Hezbollah or the Taliban. They're out there. I don't even know how you would get such a
00:04:12.200 thing, but they are in Canada. You see them, there's no consequences, and I mean zero. I suppose
00:04:19.000 it's the same here in the UK. In fact, I think he was arrested because he's a white leftist,
00:04:26.120 not a Muslim extremist. I think that's the only reason he was arrested. If he was a Pakistani man 1.00
00:04:33.000 or a Syrian man or something like that, I don't think police would have dared to arrest him. 0.88
00:04:37.340 But look at Toronto. I showed you the illegal march through the streets last week. This was filmed
00:04:45.180 by Karima Saad, a citizen journalist who covers protests. Remember the smoke bomb?
00:05:01.380 Yeah, that's the kind of place where you're, I mean, probably not in downtown Toronto, but in
00:05:05.260 Hamas, in Mississauga, you're quite likely to see terrorist flags there. Anyways, police let these 1.00
00:05:12.120 things go all the time. I mean, that's what's so astonishing. You go to these protests and all sorts
00:05:17.760 of, it's like a little mini crime wave. Police do nothing. But what happened is the video of that
00:05:25.460 smoke bomb went viral and that caught police attention. So they reluctantly later charged the
00:05:32.100 smoke bomb guy. He was immediately released back on the streets, of course. I doubt he'll even be
00:05:36.360 prosecuted, but he was arrested because of the video and news stories that came from it. Those news
00:05:41.480 stories temporarily embarrassed the police in the city who are usually far beyond embarrassment.
00:05:47.420 Anyways, Karima's on the streets a lot and she saw this. Take a look at this ambulance being blocked.
00:06:11.480 An ambulance blocked on the streets by the illegal Hamas protesters. Illegal that they don't have a permit. They're blocking the streets. Even the trucker convoi kept a lane open for emergency vehicles. Remember that? 0.95
00:06:29.340 Yeah, no arrests or ride horses or seized or frozen bank accounts for the Hamas type. That's just for loyal Canadians. Anyways, imagine an ambulance that can't get through because of an illegal protest in support of an illegal terrorist group and they're illegally blocking the streets. 0.52
00:06:56.340 And police just stand there as usual.
00:06:59.340 The Toronto Sun, though, did a big story about it. Our friend Joe Warmington wanted to show you what it actually looked like on the page. Protests above all. Ambulance carrying kid gives way to pro Hamas crowd. Just such a gross event. And thank goodness Karima there was to record it and Joe wrote about it.
00:07:19.340 It was truly shocking. So the police felt finally compelled to put a statement about it. Let me be clear. They didn't put a statement about the ambulance. They put a statement out because of the news coverage. You've got to understand it. It was the news coverage that they didn't like.
00:07:34.980 So an individual was taken. I want to read to you. I want you to compare what the police said happened to what actually happened. Here's the police statement.
00:07:46.980 An individual was taken to the hospital by ambulance. Paramedics took an alternate route to avoid demonstrators. The individual's life was not at risk and the delay was minimal. If urgent access is ever needed, officers will clear a path. Public safety is always our top priority.
00:08:02.520 Guys, you've got to stop lying. I mean, maybe you can get away with it, but in the age of video cameras, I don't know if you're going to get away with it as much as you used to. It wasn't a little detour. It wasn't a minimal detour. The ambulance was waiting for nearly four full minutes here. I'm going to show you how long four minutes is going to be playing the clip of the ambulance in the background.
00:08:24.220 And imagine you're in the back of that ambulance with a little boy and normally seconds matter. That's why they have lights and sirens. That's why they go through red lights and everyone moves over. And you've got these Hamas protesters and they don't give a damn. In fact, they'd probably be thrilled if they killed that kid through their protest. 0.71
00:08:42.160 I think this video was actually filmed by someone else who was there at the same time as Karima. You'll note the police never actually inquire with the ambulance, never actually ask them outside to move. They're lying when they say it was minimal. A kid could have died.
00:08:57.580 This sort of thing happens every week, sometimes every day. This is what Canada has become. No rule of law, two-tiered policing, two-tiered prosecutions, two-tiered justice. I can't believe that some of the coups protesters are still behind bars in Canada, but this? No, no problem. Of course, it goes right to the top. I mean, Mark Carney has only been prime minister for a few weeks and Anita Anand has only been foreign minister for a few days, but Hamas has already issued a public statement.
00:09:27.120 And I think it's their second or third now praising Canada's liberals for being so sympathetic to them. How would you feel if you had rapists and murderers praising you? Well, you'd feel pretty good if you counted on the votes of people who support rape and murder, which is what Hamas does. Listen to Anita Anand give a little statement last week about Israel. I had first thought she just obviously knows nothing about the file, hasn't been briefed yet. 0.55
00:09:57.120 And just blurted out the first thing that came to mind. I no longer think that. I think she is actually full Hamas. Take a listen and you tell me. 0.78
00:10:05.120 Israel is blocking food and aid to Gaza. What do you think of that decision? And is the Canadian government doing anything to stop that?
00:10:12.620 We cannot allow the continued use of food as a political tool. The Prime Minister has been very clear about that. Over 50,000 people have died as a result
00:10:30.620 of the aggression caused against the Palestinian and the Gazan people in Palestine. And using food as a political tool is simply unacceptable. We need to continue to work towards a ceasefire. We need to ensure that we have a two-state solution and Canada will continue to maintain that position.
00:10:56.620 So, of course, some of the blame goes right to the top, but the Toronto police, you know, they actually report to the city and they have a chain of command themselves, but they're corroded from within. Here are a couple of Toronto police cops on a Toronto police podcast.
00:11:12.620 It's all official. And they're talking about how the Hamas attack on October 7th, 2023 against Israel had bonus side effects. It caused more people to look into Islam and therefore to possibly confer it. Remember that? 0.79
00:11:27.620 It's funny you say this because, you know, through social media, a lot of people after October 7th started learning about Islam.
00:11:36.620 They did, yeah. And they said, OK, what is it with the religion that everyone, why is it so hated? You know what I mean? Why are they being attacked all the time?
00:11:44.620 So people say, you know what? Let me learn about Islam. And there have been a lot of reverts through this whole process.
00:11:51.620 I couldn't imagine, like, I guess when you're on social media, most of the feeds come through you. Once you see one, it just keeps coming.
00:11:59.620 But the amount of people that are that are reverting to Islam is unbelievable.
00:12:04.620 And they're just, I guess, through education. Right. They're actually educating themselves and saying, what is it that Muslims are being targeted and why are they being targeted?
00:12:16.620 Let me learn about this religion. What are these what are these accusations that they're saying about Islam?
00:12:22.620 And let me learn about it myself and figure out, hey, is it actually true or not? Yeah. Yeah. So that's Canada. That's your Toronto police.
00:12:29.620 Are you surprised that they put Hamas protests ahead of getting an eight year old boy to the hospital?
00:12:34.620 I see the UK starting to fight back a little bit. I can I can feel it out there. I can see it a little bit in the polls.
00:12:41.620 I can see Ireland starting to fight back a fair bit, too.
00:12:45.620 Hey, when's that fight back gonna finally come to Canada?
00:12:49.620 Canada. Stay with us for more.
00:13:02.620 Oh, hi there. I'm actually on my way home now. See you in Canada soon.
00:13:06.620 But let me leave you with Drea Humphrey, who's on the ostrich watch. 1.00
00:13:10.620 What's that? We'll find out. Take a look.
00:13:13.620 Oh, man. Now you're not the real deal, which is a good thing. But tell us why it's important to dress up as though you are.
00:13:26.620 Because ostrich fest.
00:13:31.620 Oh, poor babies behind me. Oh, my goodness. 1.00
00:13:38.620 It is May 20th. Drea Humphrey here with Rebel News as promised back at Universal Ostrich Farms in Edgewood, BC,
00:13:46.620 bringing you a story continuously that defies logic and science when it comes to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's plans to continue going through with culling,
00:13:59.620 a.k.a. slaughtering, a flock of healthy, robust, vibrant ostriches.
00:14:06.620 There are some of them behind me. Many of you know this story.
00:14:09.620 If you don't, we have a special website that has all the background called SaveTheOstriches.com.
00:14:15.620 But in short, despite immense pushback, we're talking a unifying pushback between local politicians on the provincial level as well.
00:14:27.620 Even Premier David Evey came out and said he's not happy with the CFIAs.
00:14:32.640 Let's take that away from the specific instant case to just talk about that.
00:14:35.500 Generally, it's been a consistent experience that farmers have had with federal agencies.
00:14:40.900 Devastating for this family, for this farm, for these folks who are trying to build a life for themselves.
00:14:48.900 And I hope the federal government looks very carefully at appropriate compensation to ensure they're made whole.
00:14:53.900 Other politicians as well, conservative and independents have come forward.
00:14:57.900 And as you can see, if you didn't already know, the public, the people are outraged.
00:15:03.900 They've come in protest in camps, camping up on the property here to stand against the calling that unfortunately can take place at any minute and any time.
00:15:17.900 Now, I made the eight-hour trek overnight.
00:15:21.900 It was a nice drive in the sense that no one was around, but I'm kind of tired right now.
00:15:26.900 And I wanted to be able to be your boots on the ground here for you guys.
00:15:33.900 Because any moment we can see this threat to property rights, this threat to farming sovereignty, this threat to freedom in science be acted out senselessly.
00:15:47.900 Like I said, despite so much pushback.
00:15:49.900 And so I want to be here to make sure that the world sees it.
00:15:52.900 And for that reason, we had to take some extra steps.
00:15:56.900 I was already here for four days.
00:15:58.900 There is literally no connection issue for me.
00:16:02.900 I mean, I could text message people and things like that.
00:16:05.900 But when it came to filming something, uploading it, sending it back to my colleagues so that they could edit it and get it up,
00:16:11.900 it was a painful process.
00:16:14.900 And it wasn't able to be done here.
00:16:16.900 I was staying at a motel that's close by.
00:16:19.900 But let's face it, when the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's hitmen show up, I could be over at the motel trying to upload footage.
00:16:27.900 It just wasn't practical.
00:16:29.900 And so to ensure that I could be here, I have to camp with these protesters.
00:16:33.900 That's what makes sense.
00:16:35.900 So we have gone ahead and rented a camper van.
00:16:41.900 I'm going to actually show you it because it's kind of cool.
00:16:43.900 Because you know what?
00:16:45.900 It's even extra cool because this was all coming together last minute.
00:16:49.900 And the company I reached out said, we don't have the van you're looking for, which was a lower modest budget.
00:16:55.900 So we can be respectful with our donors, everybody who's donating at SaveTheOstriches.com to help our coverage here.
00:17:03.900 He said, but we have our best model and since no one's, you know, rented it out and you're looking for it today, you can have it for the same price.
00:17:10.900 So I got a pretty, pretty, pretty nice van here, but they didn't tell me that it's one of those right, the steering wheels on the right.
00:17:20.900 Like you got to tell, especially a woman, you got to make that clear. 0.99
00:17:23.900 So I overnight drove here for eight hours.
00:17:29.900 There wasn't many cars.
00:17:30.900 So that was good.
00:17:31.900 I was able to practice that way.
00:17:33.900 And now I have mastered right hand driving.
00:17:35.900 But for those of you who have chipped in to cover the expenses that we already incurred, thank you very much for doing that.
00:17:43.900 So again, I can be your eyes and ears here at Universal Ostrich Farm.
00:17:47.900 And here's the baby.
00:17:48.900 Here it is.
00:17:49.900 I'm going to open it up for you.
00:17:51.900 Look at that.
00:17:52.900 You got the leather seats.
00:17:54.900 This is a little bit nicer than the normal budget.
00:18:00.900 And there's that right hand steering wheel.
00:18:03.900 But the real magic, my friends, here's the real magic.
00:18:10.900 All right.
00:18:11.900 Look here.
00:18:13.900 Okay.
00:18:14.900 That's the bed there.
00:18:15.900 But right here, my friends, is none other.
00:18:20.900 I better not pick it up with one hand.
00:18:22.900 But right in there is Elon Musk's Starlink.
00:18:26.900 Okay?
00:18:27.900 The Starlink has arrived!
00:18:30.900 Yay! 0.99
00:18:31.900 I will be able to work!
00:18:34.900 And that is exactly what I needed to do my job properly here.
00:18:38.900 So I'm going to go ahead and set that up so that I can be efficient.
00:18:42.900 So that I can be on guard.
00:18:44.900 And report to you whether it be the tragic slaying of these ostriches and maybe the future of farming sovereignty in Canada. 0.95
00:18:54.900 Or another miracle comes out.
00:18:56.900 Because let's face it, the two miracles that these farmers received, the emergency injunction, well that one occurred the day before the call was initially supposed to take place.
00:19:07.900 And the last one, the regional district here in the Kootenays, central Kootenays, unanimously blocking the CFIA from their plans, which was to bring the carcasses after they killed the birds to the landfill.
00:19:20.900 They unanimously shut that down the day before that was going to happen.
00:19:24.900 So you never know what could happen.
00:19:26.900 And that's another reason I want to be here.
00:19:28.900 There's been some miraculous type wins.
00:19:30.900 So again, please go to SaveTheOstriches.com if you haven't already to help cover our expenses that are ongoing.
00:19:38.900 I'm more prepared to be here for the long haul if I need to be.
00:19:42.900 And also, I'm going to show you some of the interactions that I had right now, some of the interviews.
00:19:48.900 Oh, but before I do that, I want to say one thing.
00:19:51.900 The mainstream media has been covering this story as well.
00:19:54.900 And I got to say, for the most part, I mean, I've done a lot of driving and I've been, like I said, having those struggles.
00:20:00.900 So I haven't been able to see what's online as much as I normally do.
00:20:03.900 But from what I can see, they're pretty fair.
00:20:05.900 They're pretty decent.
00:20:06.900 Except for the TAI.
00:20:08.900 And I think I should call them out.
00:20:10.900 Look at this article that they put up where they try to make this look like some sort of far right extremist event that is going on.
00:20:20.900 And that's another reason why it's important for Rebel News to be here.
00:20:23.900 Because if there is some sort of stand, which is what I hear is going to happen, a peaceful stand is what I hear is going to happen if authorities or whoever shows up to kill these birds.
00:20:34.900 That could very easily be twisted.
00:20:36.900 And so it looks like the TAI is already doing that.
00:20:39.900 Look at this article.
00:20:40.900 It reads,
00:20:41.900 How a BC ostrich farm sparked a far right crusade.
00:20:46.900 Convoy supporters and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have rallied around the farm, which is facing a cull of its 400 strong flock.
00:20:56.900 And then lower down it says,
00:20:58.900 A volunteer researcher with a grassroots group called Unmask the Right says he's concerned about the involvement of high profile convoy protesters and people who have threatened violence.
00:21:11.900 There is no violence.
00:21:12.900 There is no violence happening here.
00:21:14.900 And that's another reason why I need to be here to be your eyes and ears at this protest and whatever is about to take place.
00:21:23.900 So again, another important reason for me to be here for you.
00:21:28.900 Now, here's some of the interviews from some of the people you haven't seen me speak to that have come to stand on guard for the freedom to farm at Universal Ostrich Farms.
00:21:39.900 Oh man, now you're not the real deal, which is a good thing, but tell us why it's important to dress up as though you are.
00:21:51.900 Because Ostrich Fest.
00:21:54.900 How was Ostrich Fest? What did I miss?
00:21:59.900 It was a lot of fun.
00:22:00.900 There was great music, great fun, lots of laughs, lots of good energy, shall I say, and commitments to maintaining the objective.
00:22:10.900 And it's going to keep building.
00:22:12.900 I see you have your proud member of a small fringe minority.
00:22:17.900 Were you involved at all in the trucker convoy too?
00:22:21.900 Oh, yes. My, my mom at the time, she was 86.
00:22:26.900 And I had to go to Nacasa to support her when we found out what Trudeau did.
00:22:34.900 And it was really hard for both of us.
00:22:39.900 We held each other and hugged each other.
00:22:42.900 So when my mom saw what was happening here, she did want to come, but she couldn't.
00:22:48.900 So she put it out and she was talking to my brother.
00:22:53.900 And she said, all we need now is the bouncy castles.
00:22:57.900 Yeah.
00:22:58.900 So I'm putting it out there.
00:22:59.900 What happened in the federal court when you guys were managing?
00:23:02.900 Their expert witnesses, our expert witnesses, were not challenged and not cross-examined because I think they just had too much to offer.
00:23:09.900 We cross-examined all of their expert witnesses, but then we ended up with our expert witnesses reports being struck from our record.
00:23:18.900 So if we're talking about truth and science here, how does that, you know, we need to protect that to be the factor in the solution, not swiping in from records.
00:23:29.900 This is where all expert witnesses from all around the world, all of their expertise should come into play, not swiping them for the record.
00:23:38.900 So it was very unfortunate.
00:23:39.900 It was really disappointing.
00:23:41.900 So you came all the way out from Alberta.
00:23:43.900 Tell us why.
00:23:44.900 Well, basically, because we have a poultry farm and we raise lots of different poultry and different types of animals on our farm.
00:23:53.900 And basically, like a lot of people follow me and I'm pretty well known in our community.
00:23:58.900 And I basically came out here because I want people to be strong enough to be able to stand with these people because what's going on is completely wrong.
00:24:06.900 And if we don't stand up, they're going to come after us, too.
00:24:09.900 And so people just really need to understand that.
00:24:12.900 And so, yeah, and I just want to support the family and support what they're doing because it's just amazing all of the things that they're doing.
00:24:20.900 And I think it's super important.
00:24:22.900 Well, look who just showed up.
00:24:24.900 Familiar face to Rebel News, usually on the women's rights beat.
00:24:27.900 And I mean women when I say that. 0.89
00:24:30.900 So what brought you out here today?
00:24:32.900 I've been following this story online for a while.
00:24:36.900 And I think it's the free speech and the private property ownership issue that's real to me.
00:24:43.900 I feel like this is, you know, if we let this one go, then a lot of farmers will suffer from that.
00:24:48.900 I'm from the UK where I grew up in the countryside around like mad cow and all these burning piles of cows and, you know, just watching that kind of overreach and destroying the whole herd if just one of them's ill.
00:24:58.900 And so I feel moved by the story of the ostriches, but also more broadly about like government overreach and our private property rights.
00:25:08.900 And so I'm sure obviously everyone here is aware the CFIA has claimed it's going to go through with it.
00:25:16.900 What do you make of it?
00:25:17.900 Are you still holding hope that some miraculous event will occur to prevent that or have the protesters and those on guard sort of shifted to how are we going to respond when the hitmen show up?
00:25:30.900 We have they've already stumbled now with the regional districts ruling that they won't accept birds that they can't show are sick, which is the sensible option.
00:25:42.900 Right. So it's clear that they don't have the moral or scientific high ground.
00:25:47.900 This has gained international attention around the world that we're hearing from the ostrich farms of South Africa.
00:25:54.900 They're enraged. So, yeah, I think that there's a lot. The pressure is growing even our beloved premier, Mr. David Eby.
00:26:03.900 Right. So this is an issue that should bring all people with any common sense or humanity together over this.
00:26:13.900 And I think we can prevail. I'm confident of it. That's why I'm here. We have some tricks up our sleeves, too.
00:26:19.900 And including the expertise of you guys, the farmers. I just learned I didn't know this, but you guys have been farming ostriches since the 90s.
00:26:28.900 Right. Yes. It's been a lot of years. And that's why I said, you know, I keep saying for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and on a world scale, we need to keep our experts the experts.
00:26:37.900 The experts in our industries are our cattle farmers, our poultry farmers. They are the experts in their industry.
00:26:43.900 And we should be consulting with them about new solutions and how do we create the stabilization and our food security, not threaten it and keep our heroes the heroes that they are.
00:26:53.900 Well, being out here, I'm learning how much it takes to run a farm. So you've put a lot aside to come out here. That's for sure. How long are you going to stay out here?
00:27:02.900 Just until tomorrow morning. We have a farm, so I have to get back. But.
00:27:06.900 And what do you think? Is there anything else kind of along this line that has been happening to farmers sort of where it seems like there's government overreach that just doesn't make sense?
00:27:17.900 Is there anything else? Just kind of all of it. Just like I feel like farmers, like they're not even feeling safe about getting their animals tested now.
00:27:27.900 Like we used to be able to send away our birds. Like if just if you have random deaths, you'll be able to send them away.
00:27:33.900 And now if you do, they have to come out to the farm and all of these extra things.
00:27:37.900 And so we can't take our judgment on things and be able to build immunity in our farms and things like that.
00:27:43.900 So that's a huge concern for me. And another reason this hits home for me is that herd immunity and just immunity in general.
00:27:50.900 I also am in the natural health field and I know how the immune system works and it's not any different with animals.
00:27:57.900 It's May 21st. I just got a knock while I was working on the camper.
00:28:06.900 Dre Humphrey reporting from Universal Ostrich Farms.
00:28:10.900 It appears authorities may be present.
00:28:14.900 Others are running as well to the entrance of the camp and farm to see if they have come for the 400 ostriches.
00:28:26.900 And it looks as though they have. I'm going to switch the camera angle now.
00:28:29.900 If you're unfamiliar with this story, we have all the details at SaveTheOstriches.com.
00:28:35.900 Essentially, the state appears to be here. I'm going to stop talking and film.
00:28:43.900 But this is like, you know, in politics, there's not very much that they can all agree on, but they're all agreeing that the ostriches need to be saved.
00:28:52.900 So it's kind of cool.
00:28:54.900 But anyways, yeah, so I, yeah, welcome to have a wellness check.
00:28:59.900 I know that people are on edge, if we can even do the wellness check outside of the perimeter.
00:29:03.900 We don't, people don't like weapons.
00:29:05.900 Yeah.
00:29:06.900 It's a weapon, because weapons, obviously, we are really, we're really, really passionate about that to everybody that there's no weapons.
00:29:12.900 Yeah.
00:29:13.900 And so I want to keep it that way, because it's important for our leadership to make sure that that message stays clear.
00:29:18.900 So, but yeah, and I think I'll get a hold of mom and make sure she's coming.
00:29:23.900 But yeah, it's been a pleasure to meet you guys.
00:29:25.900 Thank you.
00:29:26.900 And I, yeah, and you would call again, you've always done so much, so much help.
00:29:32.900 You've helped us through a few things here.
00:29:34.900 So anyways, I'll get to mom and everything's good.
00:29:37.900 So we have, these are our liaisons, please.
00:29:39.900 And we want to give them a round of applause, because we want, we want their support.
00:29:44.900 And we want them, they know what we're going through.
00:29:47.900 And we want, if it's just a wellness thing, I want to have faith that you guys are really just here doing that.
00:29:54.900 And that you guys are, you want to see the best thing come out of this too.
00:29:58.900 Yeah.
00:29:59.900 We've been given no instruction to do anything but to talk to you guys.
00:30:02.900 Okay.
00:30:03.900 Okay.
00:30:04.900 Perfect.
00:30:05.900 Okay.
00:30:06.900 Don't go, don't go home with numbers.
00:30:07.900 Say there's, say there's 400 people here.
00:30:09.900 Please.
00:30:10.900 There are.
00:30:11.900 They're just asleep.
00:30:12.900 Yeah.
00:30:13.900 They're just, they're in their tents.
00:30:14.900 But okay.
00:30:15.900 So, but if anybody, whoever doesn't feel comfortable talking, doesn't have to, right?
00:30:19.900 But like if it's, but, but please, I, I encourage people, you guys to talk.
00:30:23.900 We want these guys on our side.
00:30:26.900 We want these guys to give us a heads up.
00:30:28.900 If there was.
00:30:29.900 Where's the sign in sheet?
00:30:30.900 Oh, I, it's at the booth.
00:30:32.900 Can you guys come sign in?
00:30:34.900 Okay.
00:30:35.900 Thank you.
00:30:36.900 Do you want a band-aid?
00:30:37.900 I should have something.
00:30:38.900 Yeah, sure.
00:30:39.900 I'll, I'll take a band-aid now.
00:30:40.900 That'd be great.
00:30:41.900 What happened, Katie?
00:30:42.900 Why are you bleeding?
00:30:43.900 She's, she's shaving this morning.
00:30:45.900 Oh.
00:30:46.900 Shaving in a hurry.
00:30:47.900 Yeah.
00:30:48.900 How are you?
00:30:50.900 Hi, bro.
00:30:51.900 All right.
00:30:52.900 You may have to handle shoes.
00:30:57.900 Exactly.
00:30:58.900 So, the RCMP is here.
00:31:02.900 It doesn't look like the CFIA, that's the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's hired hitmen to call
00:31:09.900 these healthy birds, has arrived.
00:31:11.900 Their claim to Katie Pisidny, one of the farmers here at Universal Ostrich Farms, is that they're
00:31:17.900 here to do a wellness check, to check on us.
00:31:21.900 And consistent with how the farm has been with everything, including when their animals
00:31:26.900 were sick, they have complied.
00:31:29.900 They have, they are welcoming the RCMP to do the so-called wellness check.
00:31:34.900 I suspect what is happening is the RCMP behind me are actually here to scout what is happening
00:31:42.900 at the protest.
00:31:43.900 They want to walk around, they want to see what to expect for when the Canadian Food Inspection
00:31:48.900 Agency is hired.
00:31:50.900 The company comes here, they're going to know where people are situated, what it was like
00:31:55.900 when they first showed up.
00:31:57.900 They're basically scouting out what to expect for when they come to do the call.
00:32:02.900 That's what I believe is occurring.
00:32:04.900 Again, I was running when this started, so I didn't get to properly explain the story.
00:32:10.900 I'm actually going to walk over to the ostriches right now, away from some of the protesters,
00:32:17.900 and just show you how they're doing.
00:32:19.900 You know, it's just so sad.
00:32:21.900 You know, the Canadian Food Inspection Sea says that they are going to continue with the culling
00:32:28.900 of these 400 ostriches behind me.
00:32:32.900 There's some of them right there.
00:32:34.900 They're looking at the RCMP like, what are you guys doing here?
00:32:37.900 What's going on?
00:32:39.900 And the claim is that these ostriches are a risk to the public due to the avian flu.
00:32:45.900 A virus went through this flock last year.
00:32:50.900 It is May.
00:32:51.900 It's almost summer.
00:32:52.900 And some of the younger flock died.
00:32:55.900 I believe 69 of them.
00:32:57.900 But the older ones, ostriches can live till around 75 years.
00:33:01.900 The older ones stood strong.
00:33:04.900 Almost all were asymptomatic.
00:33:06.900 And look, look, he's following.
00:33:09.900 This is so cute.
00:33:10.900 And it's just so sad.
00:33:12.900 Some of them have numbers on them.
00:33:13.900 Some of them don't.
00:33:14.900 But the point is, they're healthy.
00:33:17.900 And they're not even for human consumption.
00:33:19.900 I've said this a million times.
00:33:21.900 But this is the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
00:33:24.900 These are not food.
00:33:26.900 These are research birds.
00:33:28.900 And to heighten the hypocrisy more, their research is the process of extracting antibodies from their prehistoric eggs so that those antibodies, which are very robust, can be used to defend off of things like COVID-19 and the avian flu.
00:33:51.900 Okay.
00:33:52.900 So none of it makes sense, perhaps because they're not invested with, you know, big pharmas, mRNA technology that they want inside of everything.
00:34:01.900 And they're focused more on natural immunity, a way to use that to fight these viruses the state at least pretends or claims to care so much about.
00:34:12.900 But, oh, look at their, I don't know if you can see them running after each other.
00:34:18.900 I mean, it's just so obvious they're healthy.
00:34:21.900 A lot of people, it's early in the morning.
00:34:24.900 Some are still in their tents and in their campers or whatever.
00:34:28.900 But it's very clear to me anyways.
00:34:30.900 That's what's happening.
00:34:31.900 The RCMP are here to scout out because the CFIA is unfortunately still going to go ahead with culling these animals.
00:34:40.900 I was just about to release a written statement.
00:34:43.900 So stay tuned for that from the farm because there's a whole bunch of rumors going around about what type of research they were in.
00:34:51.900 And, you know, the rumors fly.
00:34:54.900 They feel they need to go ahead and address some of those.
00:34:58.900 So I will be getting that out.
00:35:01.900 I don't believe it's been published yet, so I'm going to publish that right after this video.
00:35:04.900 But, of course, I had to check out, oh, there's Karen. 1.00
00:35:07.900 I'm going to switch the camera angle now so you can see Karen, co-owner of the farm, right in there with the ostriches, 0.99
00:35:13.900 as well as her partner, Dave Bolinski.
00:35:17.900 Again, none of them have been sick.
00:35:19.900 They're able to go into the quarantine zone.
00:35:21.900 Take a look.
00:35:22.900 So, Karen, what do you think about the police coming for a wellness check?
00:35:31.900 That's okay.
00:35:32.900 It's okay?
00:35:33.900 Yep.
00:35:34.900 They actually have been on our side.
00:35:35.900 We're very fortunate, so it's okay.
00:35:38.900 Yeah.
00:35:39.900 In case you can't hear, she says it's okay.
00:35:41.900 They've been on your side.
00:35:42.900 So what about yourself?
00:35:43.900 Have you been sick at all?
00:35:45.900 You're allowed in the quarantine zone.
00:35:47.900 You're feeding them every day, walking amongst them.
00:35:49.900 How's your health?
00:35:50.900 I've never been sick through this entire thing, and they've been healthy for almost
00:35:55.900 four months, so I don't know why anybody would be sick.
00:36:00.900 Yeah.
00:36:01.900 And, she says she's been healthy.
00:36:06.900 They've been healthy at least four months.
00:36:09.900 And, but there you go.
00:36:13.900 This is Canada, and a real threat to a lot of things. 0.76
00:36:18.900 This is their property.
00:36:20.900 You know, they have been farming ostriches since the 90s.
00:36:23.900 Of course, it started off with food.
00:36:25.900 It's not poultry.
00:36:26.900 It's a nice red meat that I've never eaten before.
00:36:29.900 Comment if you have.
00:36:31.900 But they brought the ostriches originally from Africa, actually, and have been farming and
00:36:39.900 walking amongst them for years and doing their eggs.
00:36:42.900 And in 2020, if you've seen our reports at SaveTheOstriches.com, you know, when the whole world was being told that there was a pandemic that was going to wipe out so many people, they decided to partner with a scientist and a university in Japan to come up with some groundbreaking research.
00:37:02.900 And they actually did that, but it's gotten shut down one way or another whenever they get very close to something that you would think the state wants to preserve and grab a hold of.
00:37:15.900 But then there is the universal ostrich farm.
00:37:19.900 So lots of eyes on here, a lot of political pushback.
00:37:22.900 There are campers here behind me.
00:37:25.900 It looks like you can see here, there's some campers here behind me that are setting up in support.
00:37:32.900 They've been here coming and going.
00:37:34.900 People from as far as Ontario, a lot of people from Alberta, and of course, mostly from British Columbia have come here to stand with the farmers against the call.
00:37:43.900 Oh, that's what I was going to say.
00:37:45.900 While the farmers are still continuing to work on a appeal.
00:37:51.900 It's all time sensitive.
00:37:53.900 The ruling, if you recall, that we reported on after the farmers tried to have a judicial review to say, hey, let's stop.
00:38:00.900 Why are we killing these birds?
00:38:01.900 Let's preserve them and the research that they represent.
00:38:04.900 But the federal court sided with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and said, yep, you can go ahead and kill these healthy animals.
00:38:12.900 Well, it was a 137 page ruling.
00:38:15.900 And so they are working fast on an appeal, but they can come at any second.
00:38:21.900 For all we know, the RCMP here are doing their walkthrough and then they're going to go back and say, OK, now it's time to go.
00:38:27.900 So it's getting real.
00:38:28.900 Keep following our parts at SaveTheOstriches.com.
00:38:31.900 I am actually camped here.
00:38:33.900 We got Starlink as well, so I can get this video to you right now, unlike before.
00:38:39.900 So if you want to help, please do to cover our expenses for me to be here on the scene.
00:38:45.900 So you're the first to know at SaveTheOstriches.com.
00:38:49.900 And we always put information as well on how you can help the farm.
00:38:52.900 Again, that's SaveTheOstriches.com.
00:38:55.900 Hopefully I got better news next time.
00:38:58.900 Well, my friends, that's our show for today.
00:39:00.900 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at, well, I guess I'm in London, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
