00:00:00.000 Hello, my friends. I have a couple of stories for you today. The first is about a Somali
00:00:04.860 referee for the big soccer tournament that's coming to North America. He was turned away
00:00:09.700 from America, but two Canadian politicians say he's welcome up here. You'll never guess
00:00:15.560 what he did that the Americans objected to and the Canadians don't mind. And then I'll
00:00:21.520 take you through our extended coverage of the Walk with Israel in Toronto. And that's
00:00:25.600 of interest, whether you're Jewish or not, because it shows how the police treat different
00:00:30.760 groups on the street in 2026. One more thing. I want to invite you to become a member of what

00:00:55.600 Tonight, the United States stops a terrorist-linked Somali referee from coming to America.
00:01:12.760 But two Canadian politicians say he's welcome here.
00:01:16.220 It's June 10th, and this is The Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:19.540 He's fighting for freedom!
00:01:20.700 Shame on you, you sensorious bug.
00:01:34.460 Well, I don't care too much about soccer.
00:01:37.320 I mean, everyone has their own favorite sport.
00:01:39.960 Good for them.
00:01:41.260 But there is a giant soccer tournament in North America, including in Canada.
00:01:46.440 And that means that international teams and international referees are coming to North America, including one guy named Omar Artan from Somalia, who's a referee.
00:01:58.100 And the refs have to go to Florida for a kind of training camp to be referees in advance of the games.
00:02:04.380 But Omar Artan was blocked.
00:02:07.680 And let me read you three tweets in a row about the first is from a local Toronto based Twitter account called Six Buzz.
00:02:14.200 but I could quote from a half dozen different sources this is Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow says
00:02:20.680 Omar Artan the Somali referee who was denied entry to the U.S. or head of the World Cup
00:02:26.960 would be welcome to officiate in Toronto remember the games will be in both countries
00:02:32.460 quote Toronto believes in fairness inclusion and giving talent the opportunity to shine
00:02:39.900 He would be welcome to referee here in our city, Chow said, adding she will write to FIFA to let
00:02:46.640 them know he is welcome. Hmm. Okay. By the way, it wasn't just her. The premier of British Columbia
00:02:53.360 rushed to the microphone too with an identical message. Apparently now mayors and premiers
00:02:59.140 decide immigration, but neither of them bothered to ask why was this Somali referee blocked from
00:03:06.160 the United States. Why? Well, here's what I tweeted. The U.S. denied him entry because they
00:03:13.100 say he has links to the Islamic terrorist group Al-Shabaab. So it's perfectly on brand for Canada
00:03:19.640 to welcome him in. No questions asked. Oh my God. By the way, that tweet has almost a million views.
00:03:26.320 I think people just thought that was such a classic Canadian move to stand up for the terrorist and
00:03:32.320 welcome them into our country no questions asked um here's a tweet from the republic of somaliland
00:03:38.780 which is a breakaway republic that is hostile to somalia and doesn't believe in islamic extremism
00:03:45.420 as you know our journalist avi yamini went to somaliland so they said oh they actually went
00:03:51.620 through his old tweets and here's when they translated jews target muslims and arabs
00:03:57.940 and suck their blood so to be clear uh they're quoting this somali referee so the americans say
00:04:05.640 well he's got ties to terrorist groups he's not welcome and it's not just that when you look
00:04:11.520 through his own social media posts going back years he calls jews blood suckers and says that
00:04:17.160 they target muslims and arabs why would america take in a man like that and by the way there's
00:04:22.360 an enormous number of people from that part of the world i don't think there's a single jew in
00:04:26.440 Somalia. I mean, I've never heard of one. And yet the place is obviously extremely anti-Semitic.
00:04:32.920 It's sort of a corollary, I think. I don't think there's a single Jew in Pakistan. And yet the
00:04:39.060 country is overwhelmingly anti-Semitic. Why would Western countries take people who are affiliated
00:04:45.520 with terrorists or vilely anti-Semitic or hostile to any other group? Well, I don't know. That seems
00:04:51.160 to be the Canadian way. I just wanted to talk about that story. And speaking about anti-Semitism,
00:04:56.440 As you may know, on Sunday was the big annual walk with Israel in Toronto.
00:05:00.360 The reason it was interesting is Israel and Jews in Toronto have been under attack for years,
00:05:06.240 but especially for three years since the October 7th terrorist attack.
00:05:10.460 And I said quite early after that terrorist attack, which was the largest murder of Jews
00:05:15.380 since the Holocaust, is that I knew Israel would be okay.
00:05:18.580 Israel takes these threats seriously.
00:05:20.640 Israel has a strong military.
00:05:22.060 It has a culture that is, you know, as the kids would say, red-pilled.
00:05:27.260 They're aware of the threats they face.
00:05:29.940 In Canada, we sweep them under the carpet.
00:05:33.560 We turn a blind eye to them.
00:05:34.820 We do what, of course, Olivia Chow and David Eby do.
00:05:38.280 They say, oh, no, no, that guy's really welcome here.
00:05:40.340 So I wanted to see how this march would go and how police would handle it.
00:05:45.460 I'll give you a sneak preview by telling you police did a much better job this year than in years past.
00:05:50.020 But let me show you my extended coverage from on Sunday at the Walk with Israel.
00:05:57.420 Here, take a look.
00:05:59.500 How much did you get paid to be here today?
00:06:01.980 I got paid from Hashem, a big oil I'm having.
00:06:04.160 Please stop lying. Don't lie on TV. It's not good.
00:06:06.580 I think it's a really good idea to have the flags to block the line of sight to the pro-Hamas activists.
00:06:12.260 Yeah, it was my dad's idea a few years ago, and it's kind of grown a little since.
00:06:16.500 The Jewish community has traditionally been very open borders on immigration.
00:06:20.500 Do you think the last three years have taught us the perils of that?
00:06:24.500 I'd like to not comment on that.
00:06:26.500 You're under arrest for preaching the peace.
00:06:28.500 I'm good!
00:06:30.500 How are you, McDuff?
00:06:32.500 You have a good day, sir.
00:06:34.500 All right, I will.
00:06:36.500 No one's gonna arrest me today, I'll tell you that.
00:06:38.500 Looks like the police are gonna move them.
00:06:40.500 Look at how angry you are. You're so angry.
00:06:43.500 This is the final battle.
00:06:45.500 Why is the Prime Minister not here? Why is the Premier and the Mayor not here?
00:06:48.500 I can't speak for other people.
00:06:50.500 But since I'm on the federal level, I will speak to the Prime Minister's appointment
00:06:54.500 to the council that's supposed to oversee anti-Semitism.
00:06:57.500 I think it's an insult to the Jewish people.
00:07:01.500 Ezra Levant here for Rebel News.
00:07:03.500 I am standing in the heart of the Jewish community in Toronto.
00:07:06.500 It's called Bathurst Street, a big north-south road,
00:07:10.500 along which I'd say about 100,000 Jews live.
00:07:13.500 There's plenty of synagogues and schools, Jewish restaurants and shops, and it's been a place of Jewish life for a century.
00:07:21.580 But in the last few years, it's been a place of anti-Semitic hate crimes, where almost every day another synagogue is vandalized, torched, sometimes even shot at with guns.
00:07:32.840 And because Jews are all along this street, and many of them are very conspicuous, they wear traditional clothing,
00:07:40.800 anti-Semitic violence is as easy as driving along the street and shooting at anyone who looks Jewish.
00:07:47.820 And that's been happening in recent months, and police either can not or will not do anything about it.
00:07:54.580 Which brings us to today. Every year for about 50 years, the Jews have had a walk, a peaceful walk down this road.
00:08:03.220 They call it Walk with Israel. Historically, every politician wants to see and be seen there.
00:08:10.080 I mean, it would be like going to a Greek festival or the St. Patrick's Day parade or even the Gay Pride parade.
00:08:17.100 These are things that naturally attract politicians who want to be seen supporting a community.
00:08:23.280 historically the mayor would never miss it i mean think about it 50 000 voters who just want to see
00:08:30.200 you but in the last three years politicians have boycotted this event they can do the math
00:08:36.500 demographically they see mass immigration has brought millions of people to canada who are
00:08:42.160 anti-semitic and some of whom actually support violence so at least in the last several years
00:08:47.360 Mayor Olivia Chow, Premier Doug Ford, Prime Ministers Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney have boycotted this event.
00:08:55.000 We'll see if that's the case again today.
00:08:56.960 But it's not just politicians, it's the police.
00:09:00.060 There's been such a two-tier standard of policing.
00:09:03.120 Obviously, the most shocking example is the difference between how the pro-Hamas protesters are treated here versus the trucker convoy.
00:09:11.940 Completely peaceful in both Ontario and federally, the government's invoked the Emergencies Act, mass arrests, seized bank accounts.
00:09:20.360 Those were peaceful Canadian citizens protesting COVID lockdowns.
00:09:24.820 Here you have foreign nationals, over 700 Iranian agents from various terrorist groups, active in Canada, on the streets.
00:09:33.800 The government knows who they are, and they go with impunity.
00:09:37.920 And I'm not talking about some made-up hate or feelings crime.
00:09:42.380 I'm talking about assault, mischief, vandalism, shootings, arson, uttering threats.
00:09:49.440 Those are all real crimes that the police has turned a blind eye to.
00:09:52.960 In fact, at Rebel News, when we simply want to report on this violent anti-Semitism,
00:09:58.360 this anti-Jewish crime wave, we've been arrested.
00:10:01.480 I personally was arrested simply for trying to film an anti-Semitic installment in a Jewish neighborhood.
00:10:07.920 And that's the other thing.
00:10:10.100 These protesters who come in here for Hamas, they obviously don't live in the Jewish neighborhood.
00:10:15.600 They drive in for miles, right into the heart of the Jewish community, in residential areas.
00:10:21.560 There's not an Israeli consulate here.
00:10:23.600 There's no military equipment factories here.
00:10:26.360 It's just Jews, moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas and kids.
00:10:31.280 And one of the things we do every year is we bring our big, beautiful billboard truck
00:10:35.900 and rotate different messages on it.
00:10:39.240 At this moment, we're letting people know one of our petitions is about Hamas.
00:10:44.560 We say, if you're not a citizen, there's a checklist here, as you can see.
00:10:50.020 If you're not a citizen, if you support terrorism, you're out of here.
00:10:56.640 You're deported.
00:10:57.540 So we have a petition at DeportHamas.com.
00:11:03.740 It's one of the various messages in our big, beautiful billboard truck that we set up today.
00:11:10.080 I had a little bit of negotiating with the police on where to put the truck.
00:11:14.020 Ironically, a Jewish security guard wanted us to move it.
00:11:17.600 I got into a bit of an argy-bargy.
00:11:19.560 there are still Jews with wobbly knees around who don't like vigorous conversations like that which
00:11:27.240 the truck carries. Anyways, you can hear the music. It's going to be a festival atmosphere,
00:11:33.540 but all along Bathurst, there's police. There's no other community that needs 1,000 or more police
00:11:42.800 simply to walk down a street. The Muslim community certainly doesn't. No one attacks them. It wouldn't
00:11:48.820 be a terrorist attack there no other community needs a thousand police just to walk the streets
00:11:54.400 that's the state of anti-semitism in canada today i'm going to be here all day we've got a bunch of
00:11:59.340 rebel news reporters here because i think it's a microcosm of the larger problems in this country
00:12:05.400 mass immigration people coming to canada who do not share our values police being afraid to apply
00:12:11.300 the law even-handedly politicians doing the math and realizing their future lies with anti-semites
00:12:16.880 not Jews. The demographic change. There's so many things afoot. I'm also going to ask
00:12:22.080 questions of the Jews. The Jewish community historically has been supportive of open
00:12:26.640 borders immigration. Hey, how's that working out for you? I'll ask if I see any liberal
00:12:31.660 MPs, how they dare to show their face here after their complicity with Hamas. So that's
00:12:37.180 my scene setter from this morning. The parade is about to start in 40 minutes. We'll have
00:12:43.600 for you throughout the day so when the Hamas activists target this neighborhood
00:13:02.980 they know exactly what they're doing they're not going for political or
00:13:06.520 corporate or military targets they're trying to demonize terrify and humiliate
00:13:11.860 ordinary Jews thank you it's fun to get the the natural feedback from folks
00:13:22.000 here I think over the last three years it's not just been a political failure
00:13:26.260 to deal with Hamas terrorism I think it's been a journalistic failure one of
00:13:30.520 the reasons we've reported from the Bathurst and Shepard conflagration every
00:13:35.240 week is because the regime media simply doesn't why would they not because it
00:13:40.120 It shows the grotesque anti-Semitism and hate that is the pro-Palestinian, pro-Hamas side.
00:13:46.840 Like, why wouldn't a regime journalist film that weekly conflict?
00:13:52.160 I mean, it's got all the elements of an interesting news story.
00:13:54.800 It's got two stark sides, the Jews and the pro-Hamas side.
00:13:58.300 It's got colorful signs.
00:13:59.820 It's got, like, it's just, it should be catnip for journalists.
00:14:03.420 But because the pro-Hamas side is so viciously anti-Semitic in their language, the regime media effectively censors, not to stop them, but to stop them from being revealed to the larger country.
00:14:17.260 I think if people saw how gross the pro-Hamas activists were, they'd be even less supportive than they are.
00:14:23.480 What's your name?
00:14:24.300 Steve Baker.
00:14:24.980 Steve, you were telling me, but before I get started, you're wearing a shirt with some of the murder victims of Hamas that were kidnapped and murdered by Hamas on October 7, 2023.
00:14:35.560 You were just telling me that last year you bumped into Toronto Police Chief Myron Demke.
00:14:41.000 And tell me what happened.
00:14:42.960 Well, he was over here on Bathurst Street.
00:14:45.900 He was talking to an officer.
00:14:47.360 I went up to him, and I just said, from previous experiences, I wasn't very pleased with the performance of the police
00:14:58.260 and the latitudes that they granted for people, in my opinion, who violated the rules of the game, so to speak.
00:15:06.480 Well, break the law, frankly.
00:15:07.780 Yes. So we kept to our side. We have permits, etc.
00:15:11.840 These people didn't respect it.
00:15:14.140 And they never get permits themselves.
00:15:15.860 Right. And I never saw anybody arrested. What they told me was that I had to make compromises
00:15:23.880 to accommodate them. It was the most ass-backward kind of explanation I'd ever seen. When I had an
00:15:31.840 officer that basically, how can I put it, made a mockery out of them climbing over the barrier
00:15:39.860 with a megaphone and pursuing me I said why haven't you done something and he said there's
00:15:47.040 no threat to public safety therefore we are going to permit it. You just told me off camera that when
00:15:54.300 all this anti-Semitic crime wave happened in this neighborhood you reached out to a man named Michael
00:15:59.520 Kersner who is actually the Solicitor General of Ontario and for those who don't know Solicitor
00:16:05.320 General is in charge of police. So what's your experience of reaching out to Kersner about the
00:16:11.840 anti-Semitic crime wave over which he has presided? I've had multiple conversations with Michael
00:16:17.220 Kersner because he's my MPP. When everything was happening in October, November and December of
00:16:22.300 2023, we were having conference calls and like, what can we do? And he was like, well, he can't
00:16:27.820 do anything, but we need to do stuff. Well, the Solicitor General is actually in charge of police.
00:16:33.100 He's the person with the most to do.
00:16:35.920 But more importantly, what he told us is the government knew that the money was coming from foreign funds for these terrorists.
00:16:42.100 And we're like, we'll do something if you know that.
00:16:44.020 Like, we're regular citizens.
00:16:46.020 You're an MPP.
00:16:48.060 Like, you should be able to do something.
00:16:49.680 We're sitting almost three years later.
00:16:51.260 They've still done nothing.
00:16:52.600 When they arrested, we, and we know, I live at Bathurst and Shepherd.
00:16:56.380 We can tell you name by name who these people are because they come every week.
00:17:00.220 How is that something that they can't take care of?
00:17:02.360 And when they did arrest NS, and they said they got phones and computers and stuff like that,
00:17:07.980 what is taking so long to get them to figure out?
00:17:10.860 Well, I mean, I think politicians can do the math.
00:17:13.900 There's 2 million Muslims in Canada, 400,000 Jews.
00:17:16.880 But let's talk about that, because in this riding, there isn't.
00:17:19.800 And Michael Kersner has nothing to lose by standing with his Jewish constituents.
00:17:23.820 Well, but he hasn't done that at all.
00:17:32.360 good one hey good one good one tell me about your hat for sure let me shake your hand and say hello
00:17:39.000 tell me about your hat i made this up myself um i haven't marketed yet but it's going to be
00:17:45.640 marketed and tell me the meaning of it is to reassert the fact that the jewish people are
00:17:51.840 the only indigenous people of the land of israel and this gets papered over ignored
00:17:59.380 what have you and it's just a message that needs to get out there i don't well you're a one-man

00:19:34.660 Thank you very much.
00:19:35.560 Tell them the truth.
00:19:36.620 Thank you.
00:19:37.400 As we continue our march north on Bathurst, I see overhead a drone, and I saw a police
00:19:42.720 helicopter go by.
00:19:44.160 And, of course, on every single cross street, you can see police barricades.
00:19:48.140 there's there's there's got to be between one and two thousand maybe even more police on this
00:19:53.800 the expenses i mean it's a sunday it's enormous and it's just so these folks can
00:19:59.140 walk like and as you can see there's severely normal you know families with kids and pets
00:20:06.560 and there's a guy wearing our our rebel shirt that says f hamas i like that shirt sir
00:20:13.220 i love it isn't that fun but my point is just to have a people like look at these folks they're
00:20:20.240 they're they're kids that they need a thousand two thousand police plus probably the same number
00:20:27.040 of private security just to walk down the street yeah where do you get this big old flag well we
00:20:31.360 started this gentleman over here it's his oh yeah it's a great flag it is a great flag of israel
00:20:38.380 And we're very proud to walk up and down for the walk for Israel today.
00:20:43.260 What do you think of the police required to keep the Jews safe just going for a walk?
00:20:48.980 We don't need to be kept safe.
00:20:50.580 It's to keep the other people away from us.
00:20:52.980 Well, that's two sides of the same coin.
00:20:55.660 Right.
00:20:56.860 I mean, look how many Jewish people are walking up and down here.
00:20:59.820 Do you think we're not safe?
00:21:00.740 Yeah, well, it's because the bad guys are being held at bay.
00:21:03.480 Nice to meet you.
00:21:04.460 Oh, hey there, we're walking up Bathurst Street.
00:21:06.660 We started at the south end of the march.
00:21:08.960 You can see everyone sort of moving to the beginning of the march.
00:21:11.580 We're going up to Bathurst and Shepard.
00:21:13.100 That's where the pro-Hamas people are every time.
00:21:15.840 I understand they're there, but I understand for the first time ever,
00:21:18.620 police are keeping them back.
00:21:19.740 And as I walked by this mall with Panzer's Original Deli,
00:21:23.600 one of my favorite places in Toronto to get smoked meat,
00:21:26.080 I saw this unusual truck.
00:21:27.540 Like, what is that thing?
00:21:29.000 What is that thing?
00:21:30.040 Well, I went around and had a super quick chat with the cop who's in it,
00:21:33.820 and it's their drone HQ.
00:21:35.600 Look at the size of that. That is a serious drone.
00:21:39.600 And then up there, high in the sky, is another drone.
00:21:43.600 They've banned commercial drones over the area.
00:21:46.600 You can imagine there would be a lot of them,
00:21:49.600 and they could be used by nefarious forces.
00:21:51.600 So there's a no-drone rule today,
00:21:54.600 but the cops have their drones, their eyes in the sky.
00:21:57.600 If I was able to move to the States,
00:22:00.600 as they're kind of alluding through from Trump,
00:22:04.600 I'd go on a heartbeat.
00:22:05.740 It's not safe for Canadians.
00:22:07.480 And it's not just for Jews.
00:22:08.740 It's not safe for Canadians here.
00:22:10.460 If this is the type of stuff that we need just to have a walk,
00:22:13.960 I've been doing this walk for 50 years.
00:22:16.420 Why do we need this?
00:22:17.860 Because 120 foreign-paid protesters are trying to intimidate and harass us.
00:22:25.700 Arrest them.
00:22:26.560 This is not protest anymore.
00:22:28.120 This is intimidation and harassment.
00:22:30.240 It's time to do their jobs.
00:22:32.100 Kearney, Ford, Chow, Dem-Q, time to do your jobs or get out.
00:22:38.620 Behind me you can see a police officer handing out foam earplugs
00:22:42.860 because the pro-Hamas activists have brought a very loud PA system.
00:22:48.280 So understand what's happening.
00:22:49.860 The police are protecting their own ears from the PA system,
00:22:53.560 but the men, women, and children, babies in strollers who are going by,
00:22:57.620 they have no such protection.
00:22:59.540 now they're going into earl bales park which has the toronto holocaust memorial in it i wonder if
00:23:07.640 the cops think that's better i think it is better because at least you're not subjecting 50 000
00:23:13.920 jewish kids moms dads to being screamed out with anti-semitic invective this is a major test for
00:23:20.980 the police speaking of which look down there i see reinforcements coming my friends i think this is
00:23:27.540 the moment. I think police are going to push them away. I think we're about to see the kind of
00:23:32.960 policing we have not seen in three years. Let's take a look. Look what we got here. 1, 2, 3, 4,
00:23:39.800 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. A dozen police on horseback. And look at these police doing a circle. They're
00:23:47.760 moving. They're using the police cars as a physical barricade. I believe they're going to
00:23:54.620 use the horses to gently push back the Hamas supporters. There's actually not that many of
00:24:02.540 them. If I had to guess, there's fewer than 10. Remember, that's not the main place of protest.
00:24:09.480 These are the ones who sneaked through the park to reposition here. And you can see they're flying
00:24:16.740 the Khomeini flag, the Ayatollah Khomeini flag, and the Palestine flag. So maybe there are two
00:24:23.720 dozen of them after all i think they're about to be pushed back that's my theory is that after
00:24:30.600 the political pummeling that myron demke has taken for doing nothing i think today he's gonna
00:24:35.960 maybe do something here come the horses here come the horses hey here come the horses
00:24:47.880 thanks for all your work thank you
00:24:53.720 there's got to be a dozen horses there's going to be a hundred cops and i'm going to change my
00:25:03.200 earlier estimate and guess it there's about 25 protesters i'm here with rebel news covering the
00:25:09.960 annual walk with israel do you want to do something about it not just talk about it
00:25:14.160 go to our petition at deporthamas.com there's a lot of hamas supporters in canada who aren't
00:25:20.400 even citizens. Kick them out. Go to DeportHamas.com. They're shouting, move, move, move.
00:25:29.500 The horses are here. The horses have deployed.
00:25:41.600 There's now a barrier of horses between the protesters and the march.
00:25:50.400 The horses are withdrawing, the horses are going away, that's him.
00:26:18.400 I see Officer McDuff, who had me arrested last time I was doing journalism from here.
00:26:26.500 Let's hope it doesn't happen a second time.
00:26:32.540 Have a couple of Pro-Hamas protesters just sitting down.
00:26:36.800 Looks like the police are going to move them.
00:26:48.400 I understand that the police intend to keep the pro-Hamas
00:27:17.920 supporters at least 100 perhaps 150 feet away from the route of the march it appears they're
00:27:25.040 affecting that the police are behind me i'm just going to get out of the way if i had to guess how
00:27:30.780 this is going to resolve they're going to push them back 100 feet now i don't know if you can
00:27:34.500 see it you see that structure over there that's actually a holocaust memorial here in toronto
00:27:42.000 wouldn't surprise me if some of these pro-hamas types do some vandalism while they're here like
00:27:47.400 said it's a very jewish neighborhood they are being shooed away the horses in the end were
00:27:55.400 not necessary maybe they were just a dramatic effect the pro-terrorist supporters are indeed
00:28:01.320 retreating you can see the bike police there's a lot of police here because here comes the march
00:28:18.200 They're being shooed away as the march arrives.
00:28:25.080 And the horses are pushing them away from the road.
00:28:28.940 The horses are deploying over there.
00:28:32.760 Very interesting.
00:28:35.420 A very different approach to policing than what we've seen over the last three years,
00:28:40.040 where the Hamas and pro-Iran activists have been treated with concierge service.
00:28:46.880 There's Officer McDuff right there who had me arrested when I was doing journalism a year ago.
00:28:53.120 I'm actually suing him in the Toronto Police Force for false arrest.
00:28:56.920 It looks like they're not arresting the Jews today.
00:28:59.560 I don't know if they're arresting any of the Hamas supporters, but they're moving them away, which I think is good policing.
00:29:06.120 I'm going to get back on the sidewalk and walk further that way.
00:29:11.660 You have one clown remaining over here.
00:29:16.880 How are you today?
00:29:22.800 I've got all of your for now.
00:29:25.460 Thank you.
00:29:30.580 No problem.
00:29:33.340 Well, we're on the sidewalk ourselves.
00:29:39.740 Very intense, very different kind of policing than what we've seen.
00:29:43.720 You can see that the front of the Walk with Israel march is now this far north on Bathurst.
00:29:53.040 There's police vehicles.
00:29:54.680 There's ambulances.
00:29:57.560 On the other side, it looks like it's the vehicle lane.
00:30:00.800 Here's McDuff.
00:30:12.600 Which one?
00:30:13.720 Where is it? Right there. Right. Right. Yeah.
00:30:19.540 Here comes more police to assist.
00:30:26.920 Hi there.
00:30:35.020 There's a small group of, uh, there's a Jewish cult called the Naturaicarta who don't believe in the state of Israel.
00:30:42.560 They're an extreme minority much less than 1% of the Jews, but because they're against Israel and they're very poor
00:30:49.340 Iran pays them to attend
00:30:52.500 Protests to confuse why would Jews?
00:30:56.100 support Palestine
00:31:04.640 What's your name out of my face what's your name? What's your name? I'm answer Levant
00:31:09.680 Why are you afraid to identify yourself?
00:31:11.700 Are you ashamed of what you're doing?
00:31:12.960 No, I'm right here.
00:31:13.840 You can do, like, a Google face search.
00:31:16.300 Here you go.
00:31:16.900 You're ashamed of yourself.
00:31:17.900 You won't even say your name.
00:31:19.000 I don't have to say my name.
00:31:20.260 Who are you, a cop?
00:31:21.200 No, I'm a journalist.
00:31:22.320 No, you're not.
00:31:23.060 With what?
00:31:24.420 You guys don't have any accreditation.
00:31:25.700 Are you a Canadian or are you a foreigner?
00:31:28.260 What are you?
00:31:29.100 I'm a Canadian, fourth generation.
00:31:30.700 Oh, good for you.
00:31:31.800 If you're not a Canadian...
00:31:33.000 Baby killers!
00:31:34.640 The Baby Killer Parade is on full force here.
00:31:39.680 Where are you from originally?
00:31:44.240 Where are you from originally?
00:31:47.200 You're a bit of a coward.
00:31:48.520 You talk so tough when you're shouting at women and children,
00:31:51.200 but you won't even say your name to me.
00:31:52.920 You're a bit of a coward.
00:31:53.900 I don't have to tell you anything.
00:31:55.140 I know, you're a coward.
00:31:56.280 Yeah, yeah, f*** you. How about that?
00:31:57.540 You're shouting swears of women and children.
00:31:59.680 I didn't swear yet.
00:32:00.460 You've been swearing constantly.
00:32:01.860 I didn't swear once.
00:32:02.560 And you won't even say your name.
00:32:03.640 I think you're ashamed of who you are.
00:32:04.980 I don't have to tell you my name?
00:32:05.820 You're ashamed. You're a coward.
00:32:07.320 You're a baby killer. How about that?
00:32:08.860 I'm not a baby killer, but you are a coward.
00:32:10.420 You support killing babies, so that's what a baby killer is.
00:32:13.300 See you later, coward.
00:32:14.340 I love when it says, Gisela McKay, Antifa radical, Trevor Miller, Antifa radical, and now we have Jagpile, Antifa radical.
00:32:21.980 Oh, is that who he is?
00:32:23.020 Antifa. These guys have a made-up group. It's like a made-up group.
00:32:26.660 Very embarrassing.
00:32:27.860 Thank you for all your work.
00:32:29.040 Thank you.
00:32:34.040 He's not even Muslim, it sounds like.
00:32:35.840 I think he's sort of cosplaying as a Palestinian activist.
00:32:39.840 Apparently he's well known.
00:32:41.580 Like I say, that's the Holocaust memorial, if I'm not mistaken.
00:32:46.420 So it's sort of a weird place for the anti-Semites to gather.
00:32:50.700 You might be confused for why there's people who look like Jews wearing kefias.
00:32:56.120 It's not normal.
00:32:58.060 There are cults within Judaism that represents a tiny percentage.
00:33:02.260 Let me give you an analogy.
00:33:03.660 Have you heard of the Westboro Baptist Church?
00:33:06.440 It's not a mainstream Christian church.
00:33:08.920 Those are the absolute wackos who protest at funerals
00:33:14.040 when U.S. military personnel die and have an honored funeral.
00:33:19.480 The Westboro Baptist Church actually attends with huge posters saying,
00:33:23.960 good, they're dead, God hates America.
00:33:26.100 Like, they're insane.
00:33:27.620 They just do it in the name of the church.
00:33:29.600 But, of course, 99.99% of Christians disagree with that.
00:33:34.240 That's how it is with the natural cartel.
00:33:35.960 Oh, I see there's one typical activist there, Naveed.
00:33:40.040 I forget his last name.
00:33:41.600 He's one of the organizers.
00:33:43.200 I want to let you know that there are some organic protesters against Israel.
00:33:48.480 Of course there are.
00:33:49.600 But there are 700 paid organizers in Toronto,
00:33:54.880 So 700 Iranian paid organizers that the federal government knows about and abides in the streets
00:34:02.660 of Canada.
00:34:04.060 And he's one of them.
00:34:14.780 See that guy there, I first met him outside a synagogue that had the windows smashed.
00:34:20.700 I had no idea who he is.
00:34:22.680 He's a professional protester.
00:34:25.400 He's one of the 700 foreign nationals whose job is to whip up, to provoke.
00:34:37.380 I believe in freedom of speech, even uncomfortable freedom of speech, for Canadian citizens.
00:34:42.980 But when you have foreign nationals like that Iranian proxy who are professional hate organizers,
00:34:50.040 Whatever visa they're on, send him home.
00:34:52.580 Is he a student?
00:34:53.580 Is he a refugee?
00:34:54.580 Is he a temporary foreign worker?
00:34:56.820 Even if he is naturalized, denaturalize him.
00:35:01.000 How much did you get paid to be here today?
00:35:03.160 I got paid from Hashem, a big oil on heaven.
00:35:05.420 Please stop lying.
00:35:06.420 Don't lie on TV.
00:35:07.420 It's not good.
00:35:08.420 How much were you paid to be here?
00:35:09.420 I got paid a big oil on heaven.
00:35:10.420 You've got to stop lying.
00:35:11.420 How much were you paid to be here?
00:35:12.420 I got paid to bring out the message that Judaism is against the old state.
00:35:15.540 But you're a liar.
00:35:16.980 You're a shunda for the goyim.
00:35:18.220 You're a disgrace to the Jewish people.
00:35:19.860 know that i know how much did you how much did you i believe in hashem i believe in god and
00:35:25.940 that is the goal of but you're with amalek here you're with the jewish you're with the haters
00:35:33.220 you're a disgrace you're a shunda for the goyim and you're you're you're a paid crisis actor
00:35:40.100 you're a paid crisis actor you're a disgrace you're a disgrace
00:35:45.300 you know what he's just gross well here we are arriving at batherson shepherd the site of the
00:35:56.180 weekly hate march i see my friend david menzies up ahead and lincoln jay let's say a quick hello
00:36:02.580 david how you doing today great to see you thanks for making the journey hi lincoln
00:36:07.380 how's it going so far for you i got something for your report my my wife uh the beloved lady menzoid
00:36:14.020 was just two minutes ago threatened with arrest why because she was on a public sidewalk this
00:36:19.940 sidewalk ezra according to the cop it's been reserved for the islamists these reprobates uh
00:36:26.980 these cultists from israel that are uh i guess supporting people who would like to kill them
00:36:32.740 first and my wife who's just minding her own business was said get off the sidewalk or you're
00:36:38.500 under arrest i'm just going to ask you why you're here we're doing a little video part of the
00:36:42.820 community just joining my community to walk and show my jewish israeli pride what about the anti-semitic
00:36:51.140 counter-protest how do you feel about that and how the police are handling it i'm not sure why
00:36:56.660 they're allowed to protest i'm not sure that it's free speech it's probably hate speech but i'm not
00:37:02.720 a lawyer this is the first time i've seen police actually push them a bit aside well i actually
00:37:11.120 live in the neighborhood and i've seen the police yeah at this corner every week they they're like
00:37:17.360 concierges to the hamas people walking along with them i'm not sure why they can continue
00:37:23.040 but that's for higher beings to figure out i'm not sure why i got one last question for you
00:37:29.200 traditionally jews have been for open immigration or liberal immigration
00:37:33.440 have the past three years changed your views on that subject
00:37:37.120 you're you said you would ask me easy questions all right well if you don't want to answer that
00:37:44.420 i think i know the answer i won't i won't imply anything great to talk with you thank you very
00:37:50.280 much so we're in the thick of the parade now i i've been such a critic of myron demke the police
00:37:55.880 chief and the toronto police service he's passed three years so it behooves me to say when he did
00:38:01.500 something right which is so rare we have to celebrate the moment the jewish community has
00:38:06.060 traditionally being very open borders on immigration.
00:38:09.660 Do you think the last three years have taught us the perils of that?
00:38:14.660 I'd like to not comment on that.
00:38:16.500 Fair point. I think your message is clear.
00:38:18.400 Nice to talk with you.
00:38:20.360 How are you, Macduff?
00:38:23.320 You have a good day, sir.
00:38:24.560 All right, I will.
00:38:26.280 No one's going to arrest me today, I'll tell you that.
00:38:28.780 Good to hear.
00:38:32.100 That's Macduff.
00:38:33.100 He arrested me about a year and a half ago.
00:38:36.060 for doing journalism about the Hamas protesters.
00:38:39.980 In the interest of keeping peace here and public safety,
00:38:42.420 you're under arrest for reaching the peace.
00:38:44.000 Take a minute.
00:38:44.840 I'm good.
00:38:46.920 Earlier today, we saw a giant Israeli flag.
00:38:50.260 And I thought, well, that's interesting.
00:38:51.900 But look, they're holding it up to physically block
00:38:56.340 the view of the pro-Hamas protesters behind it.
00:39:01.320 I think it's a really good idea to have the flags
00:39:04.180 to block the line of sight to the pro-Hamas activists.
00:39:07.040 Yeah, it was my dad's idea a few years ago
00:39:09.340 and it's kind of grown a little since, but...
00:39:12.120 Good for him for thinking of it.
00:39:13.380 It's really effective.
00:39:15.080 I feel like it changes the entire experience a little
00:39:18.420 because then you don't have to, like,
00:39:19.300 yes, you can't fully block out the SAM,
00:39:20.880 but they can't have the same impact.
00:39:22.840 And if you don't have to see it,
00:39:23.680 you can kind of pretend it's not going on
00:39:25.740 and make this more so about what it really is about,
00:39:28.380 which is community.
00:39:29.220 Tell me a little bit about your vest.
00:39:31.560 There's some interesting patches on it.
00:39:33.980 We're the Riders of the Covenant.
00:39:35.520 We're a group of bikers that have a passion for motorcycles.
00:39:40.960 And we support the Judeo-Christian way of life.
00:39:44.180 And we have a good time.
00:39:46.100 We try to support all the causes, whether they're Jewish causes or non-Jewish causes.
00:39:50.300 And just get back to the community.
00:39:51.700 It's a great bunch of guys.
00:39:52.720 We're about 30 strong right now.
00:39:54.780 That's outstanding.
00:39:55.900 Do you go on trips together?
00:39:57.340 Do you go on rides?
00:39:58.480 Absolutely.
00:39:58.880 We ride regularly during the riding season, of course.
00:40:03.080 And every year we take part in the Ride to Remember.
00:40:06.620 That's organized by the Jewish Motorcycle Alliance, known as the JMA.
00:40:11.080 And in a month and a half or so, we're riding to Cleveland.
00:40:13.840 We hosted it here a couple years ago.
00:40:15.840 And it's all about, you know, raising funds for Holocaust remembrance.
00:40:19.880 That's our slogan, never again.
00:40:22.200 And it's only suitable that we come out to these events to support Judaism and Zionism and the state of Israel in our homeland.
00:40:29.300 Hey, look at some of these flags over there.
00:40:31.180 Do you see that one that sort of looks like an Israeli flag?
00:40:35.220 It's blue.
00:40:36.240 It has the two stripes.
00:40:37.860 And in the middle, you have an ugly person with long, they're called payas in the Jewish tradition.
00:40:43.840 So I saw that, and it's just like an ugly Jew, a character of a Jew.
00:40:49.020 But I didn't notice that there's another one, a second one.
00:40:51.840 Do you see that?
00:40:52.780 There's one over there, and then there's one over there.
00:40:55.800 That tells me someone is literally mass-producing these.
00:41:01.180 if you think this is an organic movement you are wrong this is a bought and paid for foreign
00:41:08.220 influence operation and don't take it from me you can hear their foreign accents but more to the
00:41:14.060 point their organizers are foreign they are full-time anti-semitic provocateurs this is not a
00:41:21.260 candid expression of canadian politics this is a candid expression of iranian ayatollah politics
00:41:30.300 and we allow this in our country, deport every one of them, starting with the 700 IRGC terrorists.
00:41:38.860 Make Iran great again, and then that's the lion, and then Cyrus the Great, that's the old Persian
00:41:45.260 emperor. Cyrus Accord, unity through allyship. Tell me what all that means. It means we have a
00:41:53.500 connection we have a friendship that uh is from comes from the history and the iranian people
00:42:01.180 and israel people everyone we are friends and we've been friends for a long time i love you guys

00:43:00.860 Here's some more anti-semites who have reached the line they're proudly stomping on Israel signs there there
00:43:08.180 They're stealing Israel.
00:43:12.480 What's your name, coward?
00:43:13.480 Show your face, coward.
00:43:31.340 I see an Antifa flag.
00:43:34.740 You see it?
00:43:35.380 And there's an alliance, a red-green alliance between Hamas and communism.
00:43:44.040 You see it in the NDP with Abiy Lewis.
00:43:48.740 You see it in the UK Green Party.
00:43:51.620 You see it in Ilhan Omar.
00:43:55.520 You see it with the masks.
00:43:58.460 Is it a Hamas mask or an Antifa mask?
00:44:02.140 Same thing.
00:44:03.240 and uh i see some faces of people here who have been arrested in recent weeks i forget that there's
00:44:11.580 some short guy here i forget his name what's your name boss show your face show your face
00:44:23.860 show your face what did you say i want you to show your face you're cowardly
00:44:33.220 show your face coward well there's that coward hiding his face you know what if
00:44:40.180 you have to hide your face I think that's a sign that you're ashamed of
00:44:44.780 what you're doing or you know it's not consistent with the values of the
00:44:48.580 community I thought you were I thought you were arrested the other day weren't
00:44:53.800 you are you sure why are you in why are you
00:45:02.660 in Canada at all why are you in Canada at all if you hate it so much you don't
00:45:13.640 you've never held a Canadian flag in your life I see him typically on Sundays
00:45:22.280 he's here at Bathurst and Shepherd are you really Jewish well it says Jews
00:45:28.900 against israeli crime exactly what it says so you're a jew yes i am a jew and uh what do you
00:45:35.940 feel about hamas and hezbollah and their terrorism against the jews people the zionists that came to
00:45:41.940 from europe and with the plan to take the land and kill anybody or expel anybody and then he came
00:45:52.260 What's your accent? Where are you from?
00:45:54.260 Don't say that.
00:45:56.260 I said, where are you from?
00:45:58.260 I'm answering you, so shut up.
00:46:00.260 Look at how angry you are. You're so angry.
00:46:02.260 Well, we somehow got surrounded by the Hamas supporters.
00:46:06.260 I think every damn one of them should be deported,
00:46:08.260 and the ones that are Canadian citizens should be denaturalized.
00:46:12.260 Free the Quran! Free the Quran!
00:46:14.260 Free the Quran? What does that mean?
00:46:16.260 So basically, what we're doing is we're spreading awareness.
00:46:18.260 Nobody understands Arabic, so they think Muslims are terrorists,
00:46:21.260 Muslims are terrorists, but the Quran talks about peace, freedom, and salvation.
00:46:25.880 For example, in the Quran, it says,
00:46:27.460 قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٍ
00:46:30.460 Say, He is God, the one and only.
00:46:32.380 So it's all about monotheism.
00:46:33.380 So is this a religious event for you?
00:46:35.800 For me, it's an event to raise awareness and for spirituality.
00:46:40.340 So do you support Hamas or Hezbollah?
00:46:42.100 I support myself and I support the Quran.
00:46:44.780 That's all.
00:46:45.780 Thank you very much.
00:46:46.780 Okay.
00:46:47.780 What's your name?
00:46:48.780 My name is Abdul Rahman.
00:46:49.780 I go by R as well.
00:46:50.780 with any mosque I go to all the mosques I attend the congregations and I know
00:46:54.980 all the Muslims in the city I know many of the Jews in the city I know many of
00:46:57.920 the rabbis and we all support peace salvation and understanding mutual
00:47:02.300 understanding well there's a lot of harsh language here that doesn't support
00:47:06.260 understanding it's very hostile and even violent when you bring people together
00:47:12.380 then interactions happen if we play basketball you have trash talk if you
00:47:16.520 have a party there's people it's more than trash talk though isn't it it's
00:47:20.360 mediated by the police so we're happy for that but other than that it's all love guys it's all love

00:47:49.160 You're wearing one of our limited edition, limited only by the number of people who buy it,
00:47:54.480 one of our F. Hamas shirts, very provocative.
00:47:56.900 How was that shirt received by the crowds today?
00:47:59.360 The crowd loved it.
00:48:00.500 I think this shirt, people either love it or hate it, and this crowd loved it.
00:48:05.060 Now, your job today was to protect the truck at all costs.
00:48:09.480 Give me some of a report of what people thought of the truck.
00:48:14.560 It's sort of low-key, but when people see it, they stop and read it.
00:48:18.260 What did they tell you as you were with the truck today?
00:48:20.560 So a lot of people stopped.
00:48:22.100 They loved the messages.
00:48:23.800 A few people had an issue with the fire of the chief.
00:48:26.880 Yeah, we've been tough on the chief, and I think for good reason.
00:48:28.920 But today he did well, and we're not afraid to say it.
00:48:31.160 So overall, people loved it.
00:48:33.200 People gave compliments to the truck, and they said they loved seeing it around town.
00:48:37.640 And it was a great day meeting a lot of Rebel fans.
00:48:40.540 Right on.
00:48:41.140 Well, there is Lincoln Jay and Yankee Pollock, two of our behind-the-scenes team today.
00:48:46.280 and it's a pleasure to get a catch up from them
00:48:49.260 and to all the hundreds of rebel fans we met along the day
00:48:52.400 thank you for your support
00:48:53.400 and thanks to everyone who supported the big beautiful billboard truck
00:48:57.240 love to have that truck
00:48:58.580 it's always a force multiplier
00:49:00.400 for rebel news
00:49:01.120 I'm Ezra Levan and we have a little bit of a
00:49:03.200 we have a little bit of a crowd that's gathered
00:49:05.300 I'm here with rebel news covering the annual walk with Israel
00:49:10.300 do you want to do something about it not just talk about it
00:49:13.140 Go to our petition at DeportHamas.com.
00:49:16.800 There's a lot of Hamas supporters in Canada who aren't even citizens.
00:49:20.560 Kick them out.
00:49:21.420 Go to DeportHamas.com.
00:49:32.620 Well, what do you think of that?
00:49:34.380 Hey, by the way, here's your letters to me about Tim Hortons.
00:49:36.900 Small farm says, I'm 100% more interested in Alberta separation.
00:49:41.960 Hortons has sucked for years.
00:49:43.240 I got a Band-Aid and a hot chocolate once.
00:49:45.080 Oh, gross.
00:49:46.040 And that was the end for me.
00:49:47.340 They laid off all the kids in town and replaced them with temporary foreign workers.
00:49:50.480 Yeah, we know it's corrupt.
00:49:52.520 That's terrible.
00:49:53.260 There's a series of terrible stories you have there.
00:49:56.940 And when you mention Alberta independence, it's not a red herring.
00:50:03.280 I mean, it's Canadian immigration policy that allows foreign workers to come into this country.
00:50:09.180 in fact it subsidizes them i don't think it makes sense uh to have entry-level jobs at
00:50:17.180 food companies going to foreigners those jobs should go to young kids mark j says
00:50:24.280 they have nothing you're not even using the same typeface or logo this is just another reason to
00:50:29.880 boycott you're talking about their threat to sue us they proved your point this is not the canadian
00:50:34.580 way well i'll have more news from uh from about them for you soon i think they're going to ratchet
00:50:40.240 up they're going to try to crush rebel news and uh i don't want to go quietly we'll see how that
00:50:46.080 battle goes that's our stories for the day until tomorrow on behalf of all of us here at rebel
00:50:52.160 world headquarters to you at home good night and keep fighting for freedom
