Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Toronto's by-election shocker foretells a Liberal 'wipe out' next election

00:00:00.000 Hello, my friends. I want to talk more about that incredible by-election in St. Paul's, Toronto.

00:00:05.940 Now, it's just one seat. Who cares? It doesn't really change anything. Well, it does,

00:00:10.140 because it shows that no liberal MP in the entire country is safe. Half of the cabinet

00:00:16.280 campaigned for that liberal, and they lost. What does that mean? Will Trudeau leave? I want to

00:00:22.300 chew it over with you. I'm sort of excited by what it portends, but I'd like you to get the video

00:00:29.940 version of this show. It's called Rebel News Plus. Just go to rebelnewsplus.com, click subscribe.

00:00:35.860 It's eight bucks a month. You get, because I want to show you some interesting video clips,

00:00:39.860 including what one crazy liberal staffer told our reporter. So you need the video version for that.

00:00:45.160 Go to rebelnewsplus.com. All right, here's today's podcast.

00:00:52.300 Tonight, the liberals lose a stronghold in the heart of Toronto. It's an incredible result. What

00:01:10.900 does it mean for the rest of the country? It's June 26, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:15.600 Shame on you, you censorious bug.

00:01:30.640 Hey, did you see the results of the federal by-election in the riding of Toronto St. Paul's?

00:01:36.860 I bet you did, because it was huge news. It was a liberal stronghold since the 80s,

00:01:42.820 and it is so deep in Toronto, which, you know, winning that seat for the liberals is as obvious

00:01:50.460 as the conservatives winning, oh, say, Calgary Southwest. If Calgary Southwest ever falls to

00:01:57.280 the liberals, it would be, you know, pigs would fly, but that is exactly what happened. Absolutely

00:02:03.500 astonishing. You could get a feeling that something was afoot, because every day, another federal

00:02:10.120 cabinet minister came into the riding to doorknock or at least have a selfie taken. It was an enormous

00:02:17.140 effort, all hands on deck. The liberals were fielding a candidate named Leslie Church, who was a former

00:02:23.560 senior advisor to Chrystia Freeland and carried with her some of that policy residue. People are a little

00:02:30.860 bit tired of Chrystia Freeland, and even though Leslie Church was more physically presentable and less

00:02:35.580 irritating, it was still Chrystia Freeland's gal. It was an ultra Trudeau candidate. You could tell 0.74

00:02:43.020 things were afoot when Trudeau's face and name appeared nowhere in the liberal campaign materials.

00:02:49.380 I have to tell you, I never thought the conservatives would win. I thought the margin would narrow, but

00:02:55.360 seriously, winning Toronto St. Paul's? Look at this map. I saw this on Twitter. This is the red.

00:03:02.020 These are the districts of Toronto. Red are liberal, and that blue chunk right in the heart of it is

00:03:08.920 conservative. Unbelievable. Only a few percentage in the end, but you win by one vote or by a million,

00:03:18.980 it's still a win, and it was utterly shocking, and it is a premonition of things to come, I think.

00:03:24.980 It's true that a by-election gives voters more freedom to clap back at the government, because

00:03:30.580 if they go rogue and do something dramatic, it's not going to change the entire country. You can be

00:03:36.740 more courageous in a by-election vote knowing you're not changing the government or the whole

00:03:41.380 direction of the country. You're sending a message, but I think that that message is going to be shared

00:03:48.120 in the general election unless something dramatic happens in the next year, and it could. I mean,

00:03:52.880 Trudeau has been 10, 15, 20 points back in the polls for about a year. If I were a liberal MP or a liberal

00:04:01.380 cabinet minister even from almost anywhere, I would be terrified right now. This feels like, for those

00:04:09.280 of you who are my age or older, Brian Mulroney handing the baton off to Kim Campbell, who in the 1993

00:04:17.680 election wiped out the mighty Conservative Party, winning just two seats, not even Kim Campbell's own. I don't say the

00:04:26.820 liberals are going to go down to two seats. They have some seats in the Toronto and Montreal areas that will probably

00:04:32.800 survive any flood, but they'll be under 30 seats for sure. A wipeout is coming. And right away, Trudeau said he

00:04:43.280 will not quit, and Chrystia Freeland echoed that. Here's a clip of that just to see for yourself.

00:04:48.560 Before I wrap up, I would like to say a few words about last night's by-election. First, I want to thank all

00:04:55.760 the volunteers and candidates for putting their name forward and participating in this important democratic

00:05:01.360 exercise, including our tremendous liberal candidate, Leslie Church, who ran a strong and positive

00:05:07.520 campaign. I also want to congratulate Don Stewart on his victory in this tightly fought race. But most of

00:05:15.680 all, I want to thank the people of Toronto St. Paul for exercising your right to vote and making your voice

00:05:21.760 heard. Now, this was obviously not the result we wanted, but I want to be clear that I hear people's

00:05:28.960 concerns and frustrations. These are not easy times, and it's clear that I and my entire liberal team have

00:05:37.120 much more work to do to deliver tangible, real progress that Canadians across the country can see

00:05:45.680 and feel. We'll never stop working and fighting to make sure that people have what they need to get

00:05:53.280 through these tough times. My focus is on your success, and that's where it's going to stay.

00:05:59.520 Deputy Prime Minister, can the Prime Minister still stay on to lead the Liberal Party into the next

00:06:04.320 election, given that you just lost one of the safest seats in the entire country last night?

00:06:10.320 Yes, he certainly can. Can you explain why? Because everybody we're hearing from behind the scenes

00:06:15.680 believes that the result last night means catastrophic losses across the country.

00:06:20.320 If you cannot win in Toronto under Justin Trudeau, why should he, why should anybody believe you can

00:06:26.320 win anywhere else under him?

00:06:30.160 Our government is focused on working hard for Canada and Canadians and on delivering results

00:06:36.880 for Canada and Canadians. That is what the Prime Minister is focused on. That is what we are all

00:06:43.280 focused on. The Prime Minister is committed to leading us into the next election, and he has our support.

00:06:50.960 Even if Trudeau is deciding to quit, I think he would still say he's not deciding to quit while he

00:06:58.640 figures out how to do it. So just because a Liberal says something doesn't mean it's true, especially

00:07:03.840 with Trudeau. But I'm starting to think that he won't quit. Now, I think that there's a lot of

00:07:11.520 reasons for him to quit. He has been repudiated by voters. He has led the country into disaster. No one

00:07:19.680 believes him. People laugh at him. They're not even noticing the things he does. No one trusts him

00:07:25.440 anymore. The deep dislike to him, I don't think he can be turned around. Even Liberal pollsters like David

00:07:31.120 Coletto, I remember a comment he meant, it's like if a friend becomes an enemy, or if you decide you

00:07:39.920 don't like someone, you're just not going to listen to them anymore. And that's how Trudeau is. He's like

00:07:44.800 a former friend that you have an enmity with now. Coletto said it more gracefully than that. But here are

00:07:51.040 the reasons why I think Trudeau would stay. He would go to maybe let someone else have a chance to

00:07:57.920 revive his party. He would go because his time is up. He has passed his best before date. He would go

00:08:04.560 because he's brought us disaster. Those are all reasons to go. But none of that appeals to who

00:08:08.880 Justin Trudeau is in his heart. I mean, think about it. Here are some reasons I have why I don't think

00:08:14.320 Justin Trudeau will quit. Number one, he has to stay to manage the cover up. I'm talking about Chinese 1.00

00:08:23.440 influence peddling. I'm talking about Iranian influence peddling. We've seen the steps he's 1.00

00:08:29.600 taking to cover that up. First, he dispatched his family friend David Johnson to write a whitewash,

00:08:34.640 and now he's contradicting CSIS reports. He is scared, obviously, of facts coming out. He instructs

00:08:43.040 his liberals to hide and to vote against certain disclosures. So I think number one is a cover up,

00:08:50.400 not just of foreign interference, but of financial corruption too. We're starting to see millions,

00:08:56.000 hundreds of millions, billions of dollars of spending absolutely crooked. The case of the

00:09:02.080 Arrive Can app is sort of an obvious one, but that's only 60 or 70 million dollars. We're talking

00:09:07.120 billions. So number one reason he wants to stay, I would imagine, is so he can make sure the machinery

00:09:12.560 of the state, the levers he has to pull, covers up what he has done and what he is doing and will do.

00:09:18.480 A related reason is even if he wants to go, a lot of other people have a stake in Trudeau remaining

00:09:27.280 in power, not just the liberals, but Trudeau himself. If you've paid Trudeau a hundred thousand

00:09:32.960 dollars in bribes, and if you're saying that's a shocking allegation, that's defamatory, what proof

00:09:38.960 do you have? Well, okay, let's use the example of the communist Chinese agent, a communist Chinese

00:09:44.240 agent who made a six-figure gift to the Trudeau Foundation that was picked up by Trudeau's brother.

00:09:48.880 So let's say you're someone who paid a bribe like that. Well, you don't want the person you bribed to

00:09:54.320 leave. You want to keep earning a rate of return on your bribe. If you are someone who's plugged in to

00:10:00.240 the lobbyist machinery, to the procurement machinery, if you're someone who gets sweetheart contracts like

00:10:06.880 Anita Anand's husband does, if you're McKinsey and you've got sweet deals through Chrystia Freeland,

00:10:13.600 you don't want the team to change. You've invested hundreds of millions in your team.

00:10:20.880 You're probably getting billions out. In the case of China and Iran, you're getting policies out. I mean,

00:10:26.400 if Iran didn't have control over Trudeau and his brother, it's unlikely that Canada would have

00:10:31.360 such a pro-Hamas position. So all these people, even if Trudeau wants out, Trudeau's courtiers,

00:10:36.880 Trudeau's financiers, Trudeau's threateners, his honey traps, they want him in. An example of that

00:10:44.400 would be Ukraine. Put aside your views on the Ukraine conflict, which I think is awful and I hope it 0.52

00:10:50.080 resolves itself peacefully as soon as possible. The amount of money and materiel and weaponry that

00:10:56.640 Canada is sending to Ukraine might not be the same if Trudeau is no longer prime minister.

00:11:02.880 That's certainly something they're saying in the United States if Trump succeeds Biden. So that's

00:11:07.360 just one example of an enormous stakeholder in Trudeau's continued prime ministership. So cover-ups

00:11:16.000 for himself, his stakeholders insisting he stay. Here's a third reason I don't think he's going to go.

00:11:24.160 He doesn't really care about democracy. He doesn't have democratic impulses. He has authoritarian

00:11:29.520 impulses, anti-democratic impulses. When he was asked what his favorite country was, he said communist

00:11:36.560 China. And he didn't just say China. He continued, here watch the clip again, because of its basic

00:11:42.080 dictatorship. Take a look at the clip. There's a level of admiration I actually have for China.

00:11:48.160 Um, because their, you know, basic dictatorship is allowing them, uh, to actually turn their economy

00:11:56.960 around on a dime and say, we need to go green as fast as we need to start, you know, investing in

00:12:01.440 solar. I mean, there is a flexibility that I know Stephen Harper must dream about of having a

00:12:06.160 dictatorship that he could do everything he wanted, uh, that I find quite interesting.

00:12:10.720 Not because of wonderful things about China. You know, I've got a long list of things I like

00:12:14.880 about China from the food to the culture, to the art, to the history, the architecture, to there's,

00:12:19.280 it's a wonderful, there are many wonderful things. The most odious thing about China is the 1.00

00:12:23.680 thing that Trudeau likes. Just like Trudeau always admired Castro, just like Trudeau's brother, um,

00:12:30.640 did a, um, a propaganda film for Iran called The New Great Game. Um, Trudeau doesn't care about a vote

00:12:40.560 in St. Paul's. He doesn't care about a vote anywhere because he's an authoritarian. Uh, he'll use

00:12:47.440 the mechanism of a, uh, an election to get where he wants, but he feels no compunction defying the

00:12:52.400 democracy. The next reason is related. I think it's how he views himself, not just an authoritarian,

00:12:59.600 but I think he thinks he's some sort of magical, um, destiny's child. Uh, a messiah that he is a super

00:13:09.680 person morally or personally or cosmically superior than the rest of us. He actually believes

00:13:17.280 he's God's gift to Canada. Um, he thinks that he is the chosen one. I, I think you can see that in

00:13:26.800 how he talks about himself, how he sociopathically lies, um, how he is completely unprincipled if it's

00:13:35.680 to say, how he refuses to apologize for anything. He's never apologized for anything in history

00:13:41.920 other than apologizing for other people. As in, I apologize for what Stephen Harper did. I apologize

00:13:47.200 for what the past government. He's got a messiah complex. Why would a messiah quit? Another

00:13:52.080 reason I don't think he's going to quit is what else would he do? What's he qualified to do? There

00:13:57.440 was a time when I think he actually thought he could be involved with the United Nations,

00:14:02.000 um, or maybe NATO, not NATO, but you know, he, he actually thought he was sort of a global

00:14:08.160 personality. Yeah. That hasn't been true. Uh, if it ever was, it certainly hasn't been true in years.

00:14:13.440 He's sort of the laughingstock around the world and NATO, which is a serious organization that is

00:14:18.000 embattled right now. Um, they see Trudeau as being the lowest spender, the biggest talker,

00:14:24.560 but the lowest spender. So if he doesn't have a role with the UN or the World Economic Forum,

00:14:29.840 he's not smart enough to have a role there. Really, what's he going to do? No one's going to put him on

00:14:34.560 their board of directors. And who would succeed him? That's the other thing. I'm sure there's a lot of

00:14:41.200 liberal backbenchers who saw the wipeout in St. Paul's and they're thinking, Oh my God, I'm next.

00:14:46.000 Well, they're right. But you know, the obvious saying, it's almost a sotology. You can't replace

00:14:51.520 someone with no one. Uh, I mean, I guess in life you could, but not at the leader of a political party.

00:14:58.080 Someone has to be the leader. Okay. Who would it be? Christia Freeland? Is there anyone less likable?

00:15:06.640 Here's a clip of her saying that, uh, people who don't vote for her are small and little and cold.

00:15:12.000 And, uh, like, just talk about projection. Look at this atrocious person. 0.69

00:15:17.840 That is Leslie's vision. That's the liberal vision. That's why I'm really calling on the people of St.

00:15:24.000 Paul's to go out there and vote for her because the alternative is really cold and cruel and small.

00:15:34.080 The alternative is cuts and austerity, not believing in ourselves as a country,

00:15:42.080 not believing in our communities and in our neighbors.

00:15:45.280 Yeah. Do you, do you think that, I mean, Trudeau is detested, but Freeland has all of Trudeau's

00:15:51.440 smarminess and condescension without any of his charm. Can you imagine Freeland is the next leader? Who?

00:15:56.960 Mark Carney. Mark Carney is handsome and he's a good talker. Um, he's basically been out of this

00:16:04.160 country for years. He's an elitist snob who, actually, last time I bumped into him was with

00:16:09.360 the World Economic Forum. Um, I asked him a question about carbon taxes and he said,

00:16:14.160 oh yeah, we should sort of hold off on those. But his whole life has been about carbon taxes

00:16:18.560 and green schemes. Remember my conversation with Mark Carney on the streets? Take a look.

00:16:22.160 Bob was saying, go to electric cars. That doesn't work in for a week. Well, you've got to have,

00:16:26.880 watch out. You've got to have the full, uh, you've got to have full capacity, right? And you've got to

00:16:31.920 have, um, you've got to, you know, one of the things we're going to need to do, uh, in Canada,

00:16:37.520 across Canada. Um, and this is, you know, for the benefit of jobs in the country is, is build out

00:16:43.440 the grid. You can't switch before you build it out. Number one, number two, one of the things you need,

00:16:49.120 regardless of the form of energy you have, uh, we have is, um, is also to have what's called a

00:16:57.600 capacity market alongside, uh, the electricity market. So you think that Gilbo's plan is a

00:17:02.800 little bit hasty since we haven't done those foundational things? Well, I think what's

00:17:06.560 important is that, you know, whether it's, uh, in Alberta, Ontario, Canada, Australia, for that matter,

00:17:13.680 uh, is that you have to, yeah, you have to build, you have to build and it's, uh, it's a time to

00:17:18.960 build. And look, we're in a position, uh, where we in Canada are in a position where we have been

00:17:27.200 an energy superpower. We can continue to be an energy superpower. We've always, uh, we've always had,

00:17:34.640 um, uh, the ability to develop new sources of energy. But the PM said there was no market for

00:17:40.640 natural gas. How do you feel about natural gas, especially to relieve Ukraine and other Europeans

00:17:46.480 from Russian gas? How come they're buying Russian gas and Qatari gas, but Justin Trudeau won't let

00:17:51.440 them buy Canadian gas? Well, we would have to get, uh, to build the, the trains in order to do the,

00:17:56.960 what, uh, called LNG trains in order to get the gas to them. Yeah. I mean, Mark Carney is a,

00:18:02.720 has strong political skills, but he is so condescending. He is the United Nations man,

00:18:08.400 the World Economic Forum man, the Bank of England governor. He's exactly what this country is sick

00:18:15.200 of. Out of touch elitists who want taxes on you and they don't believe in national sovereignty.

00:18:21.040 Mark Carney makes Michael Ignatieff look lifelike. Who then? Melanie Jolie. Why? Because she's the least

00:18:29.520 ugly of the contenders. I don't think that that cuts a lot of ice anymore. Justin Trudeau could be

00:18:35.760 called, you know, handsome still. I mean, not handsome in an objective sense, but compared to

00:18:42.320 other political leaders, sure. And, and really that's how I think he appointed so many of his

00:18:48.240 cabinet appointees. I mean, Melanie Jolie does not have, there's no there there. Did you see this the

00:18:53.920 other day? Remember that Canadian Navy ship docked in Havana at the same time Russian ships did. And

00:19:01.760 and Melanie Jolie was asked about it and she had no clue. Did you see that clip? Take a look.

00:19:07.120 There is this strange thing happening in Cuba, Minister, that I'm wondering if you can help me

00:19:11.040 understand. The HMCS Margaret Brooke, which is a patrol vessel from, from Canada, gone to Havana for

00:19:16.080 three days starting tomorrow to celebrate Canada-Cuba bilateral relations. And there's some eyebrows

00:19:21.600 being raised because it's in port at the same time that Russian military vessels, including nuclear

00:19:26.080 powered submarines are there. Why would Canada have a Canadian ship in a Cuban port at the same time as

00:19:31.520 Russian military vessels are there? Listen, this is something that I have to look much more closer to.

00:19:37.280 This is an information that is news to me because the Minister of Defence also works with CAF and DND

00:19:46.240 on this very issue. But of course, we'll look into this and get back. She's like an intern. She's not 1.00

00:19:52.880 the decider. That was deeply embarrassing. And the government tried a bunch of excuses for that ship.

00:19:58.320 Oh, it's on a secret mission. Oh, it's a goodwill to a goodwill with, with, with, with Cuba at the

00:20:04.480 same time. It was so bizarre. She's gone very deep into pro Hamas territory. I mean, maybe she would get 0.99

00:20:11.840 some purchase from downtown Montreal seats. But really, I think it's not so much that she's hated

00:20:17.920 in the rest of the country. It's that no one thinks for a second that she's a serious person.

00:20:23.680 Francois-Philippe Champagne, I think he actually thinks he could be leader. He's the guy who literally

00:20:29.360 took a home mortgage from the Chinese communist government, from a, from a Chinese communist bank.

00:20:36.800 There are hundreds of real banks in the world to get a mortgage from. There are countless ways to

00:20:42.640 get a mortgage. Who would choose? No, I'm not going to go to a company. I'm not going to go to Scotiabank

00:20:48.720 or Barclays Bank or wherever. I think one of his places was in London. I'm going to borrow money for

00:20:53.840 my home from the government of China. And he became foreign minister. And that was still his mortgage.

00:21:01.920 Yeah, I, I don't, I think he's probably someone who's going to be named in the Chinese influence

00:21:06.320 scandal. I, I don't think he'll be the leader. Mark Holland, um, just for plain old kookiness,

00:21:13.280 I, I don't, I mean, he wears a bow tie and clown shoes. And, um, I don't know if you saw the other

00:21:20.560 day, he gave a speech about how the government has opinions about how sex should feel. Here,

00:21:26.240 just take a look at a few moments of that, perhaps the most cringeworthy speech given

00:21:31.200 in Canada in 2024. Did you catch this? We shouldn't touch this topic. People don't

00:21:35.760 want to talk about it. I was the first health minister, probably the first member of parliament,

00:21:40.800 who talked about the importance of pleasure in sex. Yeah, that's Mark Holland. He, I think he thinks

00:21:46.160 he can be leader by the way. Who else would be? Ahmed Hassan or, uh, Arif Varani, who are really to,

00:21:53.440 between the two of them are, um, some of the most odious members of the liberal Hamas caucus. 0.96

00:21:59.440 So who, like I, this morning I literally looked at every single cabinet minister in the liberal

00:22:05.840 government, most of them who you haven't heard of, because they're just demographic appointments.

00:22:09.520 They're window dressing. They're not actually deciders. Um, who, like tell me someone in this

00:22:16.400 country who would lead the party with any ability. Justin Trudeau is awful, but at least he has some

00:22:23.040 momentum. I, I know, I, I don't think he's going to leave, but it's just been incredible to watch the

00:22:28.880 liberals try to come to terms with this loss. Let me show you this one amazing tweet. Um, I haven't

00:22:35.680 followed this person. Obviously they're, they're a liberal backer. Uh, just got a lot of, uh, retweets.

00:22:41.200 So this really apparently summed up a lot of liberals. She said, devastated by the Toronto St.

00:22:46.960 Paul's result, the anti-Trudeau hate fest fueled by Polyev and the media and voters who voted on

00:22:56.080 single issues and ignored the real benefits brought in by the government for all Canadians

00:23:01.600 will lead us into dangerous territory. Be careful, Canada. Oh, there's so much in there. And the anti-Trudeau

00:23:07.920 hate fest. I think, I think a lot of people do hate Trudeau. Um, maybe even the liberals who didn't

00:23:14.720 put them on the lawn signs, but is there hate only on one side of things? I think Trudeau,

00:23:20.800 his standard reflex to people who disagree with him is hate. You're a racist. You're any,

00:23:25.600 this anti-that. Um, I've never heard of anti-Trudeau media before. I mean, the Toronto Star

00:23:32.720 is still deeply in love with Justin Trudeau and that's the main paper in Toronto. My favorite line

00:23:38.080 is voters who voted on a single issue. What does that mean? I think that's code word for Jews because, 0.98

00:23:43.840 I don't know, about 10% or more of the population in St. Paul's is Jewish, which is actually a fair, 1.00

00:23:48.560 fair bit for Canada. Um, and they were sort of sick of the pro-Hamas hate marches and they weren't

00:23:56.960 getting any help from their own parties. So I, I think the Jewish vote, however big it is,

00:24:02.240 moved over and given the margin of victory was less than 2%, maybe the Jews did turn it. Um, 1.00

00:24:09.280 my favorite line is this one, uh, voters ignored the real benefits. The real benefits, you know,

00:24:15.840 you'll own nothing and you'll be happy benefits for all Canadians, the most divisive government

00:24:21.920 in history. It's dangerous. Be careful. I, you know, I think it is pretty dangerous in Toronto,

00:24:28.240 but basically this is all code for you are stupid. Um, you voters are emotionally unstable. You were

00:24:36.800 easily manipulated. You're ungrateful and Hey Jews, shut up about things. Hey, by the way, our, uh, 1.00

00:24:45.440 young reporter Sarah stock went there to do some streeters right outside the liberal campaign office

00:24:52.160 the day after. Look at this guy here. This is just so classic. How do you feel about the liberal loss

00:24:58.720 last night of this writing? Um, I'm surprised she was leading by 700 and then, uh, woke up this morning

00:25:06.560 and, uh, it was about 590 for Stewart. Why do you think that is? I think there was an electoral

00:25:15.760 interference by Melissa Lansman. She sent letters to, uh, the Jewish community to vote for a conservative.

00:25:25.280 Is that considered electoral interference? I think she represents Thorntel, not, uh, Toronto.

00:25:33.760 What about Christia Freeland coming on the same day as polling?

00:25:40.320 Leslie Church worked for Christia Freeland.

00:25:46.240 Would that be considered election interference though if Christia Freeland came 1.00

00:25:51.040 and gave a speech in the writing the same day as the election? No, that's an endorsement.

00:25:56.080 Yeah. If it is true that the Jews didn't vote for you, now there are residents in St. Paul 0.88

00:26:02.480 blaming the Jews, condemning the Jews, and saying the Jews somehow are democratic, 0.92

00:26:07.760 democratically illegitimate. Um, they're interfering in an election where the voters don't interfere by

00:26:14.400 voting. That's the voting part. Just astonishing. And the liberals don't get it. Here's another

00:26:20.000 astounding tweet. This is from a new Democrat named Sherry DeNovo. I just got to read this.

00:26:25.520 Breaking. The end of the liberals as the natural governing party begins in Toronto St. Paul's.

00:26:31.520 Tories win. The alt-right is taking over Canada. Question, what are we going to do about it?

00:26:37.520 The alt-right in St. Paul's? I think that means like neo-Nazis. Look, that district has voted liberal

00:26:43.760 for more than 30 years. They didn't replace everybody in the last few months. It's the same

00:26:51.280 people. It's people who have been voting liberal for 30 years decided to do something different this

00:26:59.920 week. So did they suddenly become alt-right just by voting for conservatives? Um, I think it's a rebuke

00:27:08.160 to so many things that the liberals did, including their support for Hamas. But they're actually being

00:27:14.320 condemned. This hating the voters, despising the voters. I must be right. They must be wrong. Any

00:27:22.000 loss I have in the election is because they're not grateful for me. This shows that the deep state,

00:27:28.240 the establishment, the liberal establishment, the liberal NDP establishment, they don't get it.

00:27:33.040 They don't understand that people are fed up with them and tired with them. And it doesn't make

00:27:37.120 them racist. The people of Toronto St. Paul's are actually still pretty liberal. You know,

00:27:41.920 it's a pretty lefty place. They're just sick of the crime and the pro-Hamas hate marches and mass

00:27:50.400 immigration and a prime minister who can't get anything done. Amazing times and a portent of

00:27:57.680 things to come. But do not think Justin Trudeau is going to step down soon. Mark my words, he's going

00:28:02.960 to go as long as he can. And under Canadian constitutional law, I think he can stretch it

00:28:09.760 theoretically, even to 2026.

00:28:12.640 Hey, welcome back. Your letters to me. Someone named Antti Yu says, immigration lawyer,

00:28:30.880 but Tommy isn't immigrating. Well, you're right. But that's the branch of law that deals with people

00:28:38.240 even making visits to Canada. You can be denied entry to Canada even as a visitor for various

00:28:44.640 reasons. What's interesting, at least as of the moment I'm recording this, Tommy has never actually

00:28:51.200 been told what he did wrong. In Canada, you get something called a Section 44 report, which is

00:28:57.680 basically the border guard saying you did this wrong or you have this criminal record or you lied

00:29:02.800 about this or like when you're banned from the country, you get this report by the border cop

00:29:09.120 that says what you did wrong. Tommy Robinson was arrested, taken into custody and then released

00:29:15.280 with conditions. But as of this moment that I'm saying this, he has not yet actually received any

00:29:22.080 reason why any of this has happened. He has not received a Section 44 report. So yeah, you need an

00:29:27.840 immigration lawyer. I barely know what a Section 44 report is. It's a specialized branch of law called

00:29:33.600 immigration law. Brett Wilson says, go to the British Embassy and report your passport stolen.

00:29:41.200 You know, it's so funny you say that. I don't think I'm giving away a confidence

00:29:45.680 when I say I was in the negotiation with the border cops and Tommy and we had our immigration lawyer on the

00:29:51.600 speakerphone. And one of the things the border cops said to Tommy is, hey, Tommy, by the way,

00:29:55.760 the British Embassy is reaching out in case you need any help. Here's their phone number.

00:30:00.320 And I thought that was really funny because I happen to know that the British Embassy

00:30:03.840 would likely not have a lot of help for Tommy because, well, I'm sure they would help him get

00:30:08.320 home actually, but they're not fans of Tommy either. Lignow says, political prisoner and arrested

00:30:16.080 for journalism is one of the hallmarks of a police state. Thank you, Rebel News. Well, that's the thing.

00:30:20.960 And it's sort of ironic because Tommy came in and he gave his speech in Calgary and it was a good

00:30:25.120 crowd, but it was, you know, it's hockey playoffs. So, and we only had about a week's notice to

00:30:31.200 promote the event because we didn't want to promote it before Tommy was actually in. So we had, I don't

00:30:35.760 know, 150 people. It was a great event, by the way. And it ended and it was sort of calm, like it

00:30:41.600 didn't make a big splash in the world until eight police showed up, grabbed him, bundled him in the

00:30:49.360 back of an SUV and took him to jail, which is astonishing in itself. I was talking, I mean, I'm

00:30:55.760 talking to a lot of immigration lawyers in the last 48 hours. And can you think of the last time when

00:31:03.120 eight cops, four in uniform, four undercover, if I'm right on my math there, three vehicles, eight cops,

00:31:10.960 some of them undercover, are sent to arrest a guy who's not planning on immigrating here,

00:31:17.840 who's not committing a crime, who is actually an invited guest.

00:31:25.280 They don't even treat people who sneak in at Roxham Road like that. At Roxham Road,

00:31:30.720 the police act as luggage boys, as concierges. So I think it is quite political.

00:31:37.360 Today, our lawyers are trying to negotiate with the border police to alter those conditions.

00:31:47.840 And if not, they will be applying for an emergency order tomorrow.

00:31:51.920 So things are really happening quickly. Anyways, Tommy's a handful. I never thought

00:31:56.640 I'd see him in Canada, but he's here. I'm back in Toronto now. But if that immigration 1.00

00:32:02.640 emergency hearing happens, I will go back to Calgary.

00:32:05.840 That's our show for today. Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,

00:32:10.800 see you at home. Good night. And keep fighting for freedom.

00:32:22.400 Go to Calgary.

00:32:27.280 Come on.

00:32:33.200 Here we have.

00:32:37.120 Go to Calgary.
