Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ We're launching a civil liberties campaign to FightVaccinePassports.com

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Today I announce a new project. It's a civil liberties project done in concert

00:00:06.380 with the Democracy Fund, so you'll get a charitable tax receipt for it. We've set up

00:00:11.100 fightvaccinepassports.com. The name speaks for itself, just like we had fightthefines.com.

00:00:18.520 We helped over 2,000 Canadians fight outrageous lockdown tickets. Well, those were abusive

00:00:24.180 tickets and some of them were enough to bankrupt a guy, but at the end of the day, that was just

00:00:27.820 money. What I see in Canada now is a concerted campaign to force people to take a medical

00:00:33.700 procedure they do not want, to get a rather experimental drug injected in them for reasons

00:00:39.260 that they disagree with, and that is just so contrary to the notions of medical ethics and

00:00:44.840 political ethics on our Charter of Rights, we have decided to fight back. I'll tell you our three-point

00:00:50.220 plan of what we're going to do, and I sure hope it's as successful as fightthefines.com was.

00:00:56.960 Unfortunately, we don't have 18 months to do it. I think in some ways we have 18 days.

00:01:03.560 So that's the show for today. I hope you pay attention to it, and I hope if it appeals to you

00:01:09.760 that you support it. As you know, our shows during the election, the video version of the show is

00:01:16.780 available for free. Normally we charge eight bucks a month for it. Just go to rebelnewsplus.com

00:01:24.260 and subscribe for eight bucks a month. But this time, during the election, just enter the coupon code

00:01:29.020 ELECTION, and you can get it for free. I hope you do. Why don't you take me up on that? I mean,

00:01:33.380 what's to lose? It's free, right? Go to rebelnewsplus.com, use the coupon code ELECTION.

00:01:39.920 You get free videos, and if you like it, you can stay on for eight bucks a month.

00:01:44.800 Okay, here's today's podcast. Cheers.

00:01:51.800 Tonight, we launch a new Civil Liberties campaign to fight vaccine passports. It's August 25th, 0.90

00:02:09.460 and this is the Ezra Levant Show. Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon

00:02:16.040 consumer I know? There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer. The only thing

00:02:21.680 I have to say to the government, the why I'm publishing, is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:02:31.860 Today, I'm announcing a legal defense fund to help Canadian families who are being forced,

00:02:37.200 against their will, to take the COVID-19 vaccine. And I'm pleased to announce our first case under

00:02:43.480 this program, a young woman who, for medical reasons, can't take the vaccine, but the government

00:02:49.960 says she either has to take it, or she will lose many of her civil rights. I'll tell you more about 0.99

00:02:55.140 her case in a moment. You can see all the details at our website, fightvaccinepassports.com.

00:03:02.240 So please go there. There are a few important things to do on that website. First, and easiest,

00:03:08.820 you can sign our petition against vaccine passports. That has almost 100,000 signatures on it already.

00:03:15.240 If you sign that petition, we'll also keep you up to date with the latest news on this project.

00:03:21.040 Second, if you yourself are being forced to take a vaccine against your will, or being punished if you

00:03:27.060 won't, on that same website, fightvaccinepassports.com, you can fill out a confidential form telling us

00:03:35.760 who you are, who is trying to force you to take a vaccine, and what they're saying to you. The actual

00:03:42.220 wording of their threat is important. Our lawyers will review your information, and if we can help you,

00:03:48.240 we will. I'll tell you how we're going to choose those cases in a moment.

00:03:51.960 And finally, I need your help to do this right. We need the best lawyers who know the law and the

00:03:59.860 Constitution, and how to strategically fight this, and how to fight it quickly, with the best chance

00:04:06.140 of winning, and setting a precedent, and rolling back these vaccine passports. So we need to hire 0.98

00:04:11.860 the pros. Not volunteer lawyers who mean well, but aren't proven winners. I want to hire the legal

00:04:18.420 eagles, senior counsel, who know what they're doing, and I don't want volunteers because I want

00:04:23.800 lawyers who are going to put everything else aside and make this their central priority for the

00:04:28.860 foreseeable future. As you may know, for the past 18 months, we've done something like this with our

00:04:35.000 Fight the Fines project, where we crowdfund lawyers to help more than 2,000 Canadians fight their lockdown

00:04:41.560 tickets. We really built a kind of national civil rights law firm, in a way, and we've had good success.

00:04:46.980 So I want to deploy that team and new lawyers to fight these vaccine passports and vaccine mandates.

00:04:53.780 The difference here is that we can't take 2,000 cases. It's not as easy to launch an urgent

00:05:00.780 constitutional lawsuit as it is to defend a ticket. Each case here is going to be way more expensive,

00:05:07.720 but we also don't have to take every case because if we challenge a vaccine mandate for one person,

00:05:13.940 and if we get it struck down, that would obviously benefit everyone else who is at the same university

00:05:20.200 or office too. So for example, we only need one student plaintiff at any given university,

00:05:25.900 not every single student there, right? So if we choose our cases strategically, a win for one case

00:05:33.000 could actually be a win for thousands or even millions of Canadians. Like BC's outrageous and

00:05:40.000 clearly unconstitutional vaccine passport that violates the rights of 5 million British Columbians.

00:05:45.380 But we only need one case to challenge it. And by the way, I think we found her already.

00:05:50.520 That's the lady I mentioned earlier. So I need your help to crowdfund these 20 precedent-setting

00:05:57.580 cases. And we've already chosen one. I'll be candid. Normally, such a case, especially if it involves

00:06:04.340 a constitutional challenge, it would cost for sure $100,000 or more, maybe double that.

00:06:10.420 But if our lawyers share their legal research with each other and share the actual legal documents

00:06:15.600 they prepare, the pleadings, we won't have to pay them each to reinvent the wheel. So I think we can

00:06:21.800 be smart about it, but there's no way this is going to cost us less than a million dollars, about

00:06:26.380 50 grand a case. But we can do it. I mean, we have to do it, right? Because no regular family could

00:06:35.180 afford to do this on their own. If you can help even by chipping in $20, or if you can $100 or even

00:06:41.100 more, please go to fightvaccinepassports.com and you'll get a charitable tax receipt for it from the

00:06:48.560 CRA charity, the Democracy Fund. So $100 donation would only cost you about $80. None of the money goes to

00:06:56.120 Rebel News, by the way. It all goes through the Democracy Fund, and they pay the lawyers directly.

00:07:02.360 Okay, let's do it. Let's crowdfund $1 million to fight the vaccine passports with a team of smart 0.85

00:07:09.620 lawyers from coast to coast. Let's find the 20 best cases. And by that, I mean the most sympathetic

00:07:15.800 plaintiffs and the most outrageous institutions imposing the most abusive rules.

00:07:22.580 I mentioned we have our first case already. A woman who, for medical reasons, cannot take the 0.99

00:07:29.900 vaccine injection. Her doctor says it could be deadly to her, and yet the province of British

00:07:35.640 Columbia refuses to give an exemption for that. So she's banned from living her life.

00:07:40.900 I was also asking about, I'm just curious about exemptions. I haven't had a whole chance to look at

00:07:45.800 all the details here. But if someone cannot be immunized, is there an exemption? If someone does not want

00:07:51.920 to use the vaccine due to religious reasons, is there an exemption? And will there be exemptions

00:07:57.860 for people traveling from outside of the province into British Columbia? Or how do they follow the same

00:08:05.340 guidelines as British Columbians?

00:08:06.600 Yeah, so the short answer is no. This is a temporary measure that's getting us through a risky period

00:08:13.520 where we know that people who are unvaccinated are at greater risk of both contracting and spreading

00:08:19.300 this virus. So if there are those rare people who have a medical reason why they can't be immunized,

00:08:25.980 these are discretionary events that we're talking about. So they will not be able to attend those

00:08:31.640 events through this period of time of high risk. Let me tell you about Sarah Webb. She had her first

00:08:38.920 dose of the Moderna vaccine. And she had to be rushed to the emergency room two nights in a row after

00:08:44.640 that. And a doctor said the risk of her taking the second shot was too great. The doctor said she's

00:08:51.340 medically exempt from it. Except that BC's vaccine mandate does not allow any medical exemptions.

00:09:00.000 So now Sarah, who's quite a healthy person and values exercise and wellness and actually has

00:09:07.560 one dose of Moderna, she's banned from so much of life. Restaurants, even outdoor patios, movie theaters, 0.99

00:09:15.080 sports events, coffee shops, gyms, weddings, conferences. Can you believe that? Banned by law from going to

00:09:20.420 any wedding? So that's what I mean by a strategic case. A sympathetic person, an atrocious vaccine

00:09:28.940 mandate by a government that's abusive to people with legitimate exemptions. That's a strategic case.

00:09:36.760 We'll introduce you more properly to Sarah later and to her lawyers. She's agreed to be our first case.

00:09:43.460 And we expect to fire off a demand letter to the BC government before the week is out.

00:09:47.880 We plan to file a lawsuit against the government as soon as next week. And that will all be posted to

00:09:53.780 fightvaccinepassports.com in due course. Don't you think that's a great first case? A woman who really

00:10:01.080 needs our help, but just as importantly, a woman whose case could set a precedent to free so many 1.00

00:10:06.760 other people from this. That's what I mean by a strategic case. Let's find 20 of them. And if you're

00:10:13.760 one of them, let us know by filling out the form at fightvaccinepassports.com. If you yourself don't

00:10:21.780 need help, well, we need your help. Please help us crowdfund this campaign. We need to hire excellent

00:10:27.920 lawyers ready to fight. You'll get a charitable tax receipt for it. Now is the time. We don't have

00:10:33.020 a day to waste. Justin Trudeau has said that there will be consequences for Canadians who don't have a

00:10:39.920 vaccine. He's threatening people, saying you won't be able to live your life anymore.

00:10:45.060 You deserve better. You deserve a government that's going to continue to say,

00:10:51.140 get vaccinated. And you know what? If you don't want to get vaccinated, that's your choice. But

00:10:57.660 don't think you can get on a plane or a train besides vaccinated people and put them at risk.

00:11:03.900 I'm sorry, that's just not the Canadian way. We respect individual choice. We don't force people

00:11:10.180 to take medical procedures. And we respect people who have reasons that they can't or won't take the

00:11:16.260 jab. Even if those people are a small minority, especially if they're a small minority, we protect

00:11:22.720 their rights too. So please go to fightvaccinepassports.com to do three things. Number one,

00:11:31.560 sign our petition against forced vaccines. Number two, if you're being forced to take a vaccine,

00:11:36.600 fill out our form on that page. Our lawyers will review your case. We plan to take 20 cases to start.

00:11:43.160 We already have our first case, Sarah Webb, who can't take the vaccine for medical reasons. 0.99

00:11:48.160 And three, if you can please help crowdfund our lawyers, we need the help. I think we need to

00:11:53.980 raise $1 million to do this right. That's a lot of money, but I think our freedoms are worth it.

00:11:59.400 You'll get a charitable tax receipt from the Democracy Fund. And I promise that we'll give you updates

00:12:04.760 every week on the cases and how they're going. Please visit fightvaccinepassports.com. Look,

00:12:12.760 I wish that other people were doing this. I wish opposition political parties were fighting this.

00:12:16.880 And I wish the mainstream media were fighting this. I wish the traditional civil liberties groups

00:12:20.900 were fighting this. I wish even doctors groups were fighting this. Forced medical procedures? Where

00:12:26.420 are the doctors? But they're all cheerleading for this. At least all the official people are.

00:12:30.760 There's a viciousness to it, too. It's a mob mentality. If someone voluntarily chooses to

00:12:36.940 be vaccinated, that's great. It's your body, your choice. Have at it. But the rage and punishment

00:12:42.480 being targeted at people like Sarah Webb, individuals who have reasons for not wanting to be vaccinated,

00:12:47.560 that's just too much. That's not Canadian. We have to stop that. I just think we have to do this. 1.00

00:12:53.640 I want to take this opportunity to speak to our brothers, the Taliban. We call on you to ensure the 1.00

00:13:23.440 safe and secure passage of any individual in Afghanistan out of the country.

00:13:30.620 Our brothers, the Taliban? That's Maryam Monsef, a cabinet minister in Justin Trudeau's government.

00:13:37.780 She was reading from a prepared script. That wasn't something she said by accident. That was

00:13:41.640 prepared by staff. Many eyes would have seen that. In fact, I see a report in the National Post that

00:13:47.620 Monsef used that exact same language, our Taliban brothers, at a press conference just a few days ago.

00:13:55.220 Maryam Monsef, on behalf of the government of Canada, is calling the Taliban our brothers.

00:14:01.120 The Taliban is actually right now on Public Safety Canada's list of official terrorist groups,

00:14:09.480 right there with Al-Qaeda and the rest of them. What on earth is going on? 0.53

00:14:13.280 Joining us now via Skype is our friend Spencer Fernando from spencerfernando.com. Great to see you

00:14:19.340 again. What do you make of this? Am I making much ado about nothing? Or is this a rather creepy way

00:14:23.740 to talk about terrorists?

00:14:28.360 Yeah, it's quite disturbing. And it's obviously not the first time the Liberal government has been a little

00:14:33.040 too friendly with people who totally impose Canadian values, people who really are an enemy of Canada.

00:14:39.220 And unfortunately, it's not a big surprise, but it is quite disturbing. And, you know, it's not the

00:14:44.820 first time we've seen this. It's apparently not going to be the last time we see it from the Liberals as

00:14:48.780 well. And, you know, it's more than just disturbing. It's also quite insulting. If you're a Canadian 1.00

00:14:54.480 soldier who was injured in Afghanistan or lost a friend in Afghanistan or family who lost someone in

00:15:00.520 Afghanistan, and then you hear a Canadian minister calling the people who killed your family member

00:15:05.200 our brothers, that's got to make you pretty disturbed and pretty disgusted to see that.

00:15:10.760 Yeah. You know, there's an extra layer to this.

00:15:14.340 Maryam Monsef herself is a refugee from there. Now, she lied, as you know.

00:15:19.540 She lied in her application, claimed she was from Afghanistan. Actually, she's from Iran, but her family knew

00:15:25.540 saying she was from Afghanistan would have made it easier for her to immigrate.

00:15:29.140 I just want to play a quick clip of her being called out on that by Bob Fyfe, who was, just take a quick

00:15:35.220 look at this.

00:15:35.900 So you were born in Afghanistan, correct?

00:15:37.880 I believe I was.

00:15:39.060 So she's from that region. She fled to Canada as a refugee because it is such a dangerous region because of the 1.00

00:15:47.380 Taliban and other terrorists. And her title, Spencer, is Women's and Gender Equality Minister.

00:15:55.600 So she's from that part of the world, knows how dangerous you are. She fled here, claiming her life was in

00:16:02.260 danger over there. Her title is Women's Minister and Gender Equality. And I don't think there's any force

00:16:09.400 in the world that's more misogynist than the Taliban. And she's the one calling them brothers?

00:16:16.380 Like, how many layers of self-denial or, like, of all the people in the world, to call them brothers, 0.96

00:16:25.200 she would be the one who, God forbid, would be raped by the Taliban? May it never happen. 0.91

00:16:32.340 Yeah. And, you know, what's so concerning about this is it's a pattern, not just from her, but from

00:16:37.000 the liberals, is look at how they speak about people who are, you know, the enemies of Canada or who are

00:16:41.940 very ideologically opposed to Canadian values, right? Whether it's China, Cuba, you know, we saw

00:16:46.760 what Trudeau said about Fidel Castro. Now with Mary Amonseth, of course. And, you know, then look

00:16:53.280 at how they treat Canadians who happen to disagree with them politically, right? Look at the anger

00:16:58.480 you'll see on Trudeau's face when he talks about Canadians, for example, who aren't being vaccinated.

00:17:03.280 Yeah.

00:17:03.520 Or Canadians who are conservative or Canadians, you know, in rural areas or, you know, more socially

00:17:07.720 conservative people, it's just like, it's like he has total anger and disdain and hatred

00:17:12.440 for Canadians who disagree with him. Yeah. When he talks about people who are actually enemies

00:17:17.040 of Canada, people who are doing terrible things, in the case of the Taliban, people who actually

00:17:21.240 killed Canadian soldiers, it's, oh, they're our brothers, or it's just a bunch of nice appeals

00:17:25.700 to them. And I think people, Canadians really need to consider, how can we have a government

00:17:30.520 that is more aggressive and more angry towards our own citizens and towards enemies of our

00:17:35.480 country? And that should be concerning to everybody.

00:17:37.260 Yeah, you're so right. I've never heard Trudeau or a Trudeau cabinet minister talk to the premier

00:17:42.980 of Saskatchewan or the premier of Alberta as, listen, my brother, we're all in this Canadian

00:17:48.580 family together. Let's reason this out. Like the word brother is such an affectionate word.

00:17:54.760 And it's a reminder that, hey, we're bonded together in ways more important than policy

00:18:00.000 differences. We never hear that. You're so right to point out Trudeau's raging,

00:18:05.160 rant, saying there will be consequences to people who, for whatever reason, don't take

00:18:10.580 the vaccine. And never forget Omar Khadr. Trudeau gave him a personal apology, took him off the

00:18:18.040 no-fly list, gave him $10.5 million. If only he treated Canadians that he disagreed with so

00:18:24.240 well. It's such a clarifying moment. I want to show you, Trudeau was asked about it and he

00:18:30.340 sort of laughed the whole thing off. Here's a clip of that later in the day today.

00:18:34.180 The minister explained her comments and I have nothing further to add. We will continue

00:18:51.480 to be very firm on the Taliban as being a terrorist organization and continue to pressure them to

00:19:00.860 let people out of Afghanistan.

00:19:03.860 In English on the minister, please.

00:19:05.360 The minister has expressed her views and explained to herself. We will continue to recognize that

00:19:14.080 the Taliban represent a terrorist organization and continue to push on them so people can get 0.76

00:19:19.080 out to safety. I don't know. I mean, maybe it's smart. I mean, there are over a million Canadians

00:19:25.380 from Muslim backgrounds. Many of them are citizens and can vote. Maybe he's just done the math and 0.68

00:19:32.300 thought, I'm absolutely going to lock in more votes than I'm going to alienate. I don't know. Maybe this

00:19:38.180 is all very planned because it was written out in advance and it's the second time she said it.

00:19:42.620 Maybe. Although, you know, I suspect, you know, most Muslims in Canada are not really big fans of the

00:19:48.720 Taliban. And in fact, mostly came here to escape that kind of, you know, super aggressive, you know,

00:19:54.340 Sharia governments. Right. So I think it would backfire in that way. I'm already seeing people 1.00

00:19:58.560 on Twitter and they're saying like, well, actually, you know, we don't, we don't call our enemies

00:20:01.860 brothers, you know, people, Farsi speakers saying that's not the term we use at all. We don't refer

00:20:07.660 to people who, you know, harmed us or hurt us as our brothers. So I think, you know, the efforts some

00:20:12.840 people are making to claim this is some sort of, you know, cultural thing. It's just, I don't think

00:20:16.500 that's where they're going to fly with most people. And it's interesting, you know, there was a poll that

00:20:20.380 came out today and showed about 70, 75% of Canadians say we should do everything we can to help the

00:20:27.220 Afghans who helped Canadians in that country. And then you see polls on how Canadians view,

00:20:32.060 you know, China, you know, very negative view. They want us to, you know, decouple from China

00:20:35.940 and distance ourselves. So there's a really big gap between the actual values of Canadians on these

00:20:40.540 issues and what the liberals are doing. And I think the conservatives really should do everything

00:20:44.620 they can on the campaign to keep exploiting that gap because it's noticeable and it's one way in which

00:20:49.520 the liberals are very out of step of public opinion. You know, you're right. And I accept your point

00:20:54.400 that most Canadian Muslims would not say the Taliban are my brother. They're, they're here 0.88

00:20:58.680 because they don't want to live like that. And I just wish that Mary Amantsev would have the same

00:21:04.960 kind of generosity of spirit towards, you know, people in Afghanistan who are literally going to

00:21:09.980 be killed if they're left behind because they helped Canada along the way. Like, I think we have

00:21:15.760 to vet those interpreters and others because, you know, just because they took a job helping Canadians

00:21:21.680 or other NATO allies in Afghanistan doesn't mean they're necessarily good eggs. But I think that

00:21:27.320 the presumption should be if someone helped Canadians for 10 or 20 years and are going to be killed by

00:21:33.700 the Taliban, the presumption is we should probably help them. I'm not saying bring them in unvetted, 0.87

00:21:39.760 but we haven't seen the same love, affection, or friendly words towards the interpreters who help

00:21:47.200 Canadian soldiers. They haven't been called brothers. Only the Taliban has. I find that very

00:21:52.420 dispiriting. Let me ask you, how's the campaign going? I guess we're, we're just over a week now.

00:21:58.620 I think we're on day nine. It's not going as well for the liberals as I thought it would be. And the

00:22:04.080 media are a little bit more prickly to the liberals than they have been before.

00:22:09.340 Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, no one knows, of course, how it's going to end. But if you look,

00:22:13.000 it's actually funny how, you know, Justin Trudeau is campaigning somewhat similar to how Stephen

00:22:18.620 Harper campaigned when Harper was losing, right? Not the same issues, but the same kind of like,

00:22:23.220 I'm going to make it all by my opponent and scare everybody, right? That's generally what campaigns

00:22:27.240 do when they feel like things aren't going well for them. And, you know, I think Aaron Motul is

00:22:30.920 exceeding expectations that were quite low for him. He's somewhat exceeding that, you know, he comes

00:22:36.580 across as reasonable on TV. He doesn't scare people. You know, of course, I'm not his biggest fan,

00:22:41.780 but, you know, what I think is starting to happen is people are saying, look, you know,

00:22:45.240 I may not be a big fan of Aaron Motul, I may not be a big fan of Jay Winston, but there's just

00:22:50.080 something so, I guess, disturbing, kind of creepy about Justin Trudeau lately, the fact that the

00:22:56.080 liberals have become a personality cult, that even if the other options aren't great, the most

00:23:00.860 important thing in this election is just to get Trudeau out of office, and then we can deal with other

00:23:04.960 problems in the country after that. But I think job number one has to be defeating Trudeau, and hopefully

00:23:09.460 that's the way, you know, the election is starting to shape up in people's minds, and it's really an

00:23:14.340 anti-Trudeau election, and it's the election to get him out of office.

00:23:18.300 I'm going to throw one more thing at you. I saw this poll by Main Street that was sponsored by

00:23:23.580 iPolitics. So, I mean, you can take it with a grain of salt if you like, and it could be the,

00:23:27.560 you know, proverbial rogue poll. I don't think the sample size was huge, but this poll

00:23:32.900 suggests that Maxine Bernier's PPC, the People's Party, is in double digits in Alberta, and if you

00:23:40.080 look at it, technically, even though it's within the margin of error, it's just ahead of even the

00:23:46.400 liberals. So, according to this poll, and again, I'm not saying that this is spot on, but you can't

00:23:53.080 just throw it out. This poll shows that the conservatives are at 44.5% in Alberta, which,

00:23:59.160 by the way, I don't remember them being that low before. The People's Party at 16.1%,

00:24:05.400 just ahead of the liberals at 16, NDP 14.5, and then the Greens are down there, and I presume the

00:24:13.200 Maverick Party's down there. So, I don't know. Coming in second doesn't help you in our first

00:24:18.900 past the post system, but my theory is maybe those are people frustrated with the lockdowns and the

00:24:24.320 vaccine mandates. Maybe they're just saying, we like a guy who's talking about

00:24:29.040 freedom, and Maxine Bernier's the only one. What do you think of that?

00:24:32.700 Yeah, I mean, I wrote about that in a recent column where I'm talking about how it was,

00:24:36.740 I think, very harmful to the democracy of the country that he was excluded from the

00:24:41.400 upcoming debates. You know, he's, you know, millions of Canadians, even if you assume the

00:24:45.540 polls that say that, you know, 70% of Canadians want vaccine mandates, even if you assume that's

00:24:50.260 correct. That leaves, what, 30, you know, 30-whatever, 20-whatever percent people say

00:24:56.020 they oppose that. That's millions of people, right? And so, you think they should have political

00:24:59.140 representation. And Maxine Bernier is really the only one who does that. So, his perspective is

00:25:03.880 important, and people deserve to be represented for those views. And, you know, I think the numbers

00:25:08.540 in Alberta are interesting. Of course, it's a conservative province, but also it's a place where,

00:25:13.580 look, if you're in an area where you know the CBC is probably going to win, well, then you're not

00:25:17.220 risking a liberal win by voting for them. So, there's also a lot more leeway for people to vote

00:25:22.280 really for what they want as opposed to voting for defeating somebody specifically. So, those numbers

00:25:27.840 are interesting. I think we should keep an eye on it. Because, you know, if they finish with 6% or

00:25:31.460 7% nationwide, you're talking about possibly doing better than the Green Party, possibly doing better

00:25:36.660 than the bloc. And, you know, really, is that something to consider going forward? They're obviously

00:25:41.060 not going away, and it's something a lot of Canadians support. Yeah, very interesting. Well,

00:25:45.480 great to catch up with you, Spencer. Thanks very much for joining us as you do from time to time.

00:25:49.240 Great to see you. Good talking to you. All right. There you have it. SpencerFernando.com

00:25:53.840 is the website. Stay with us. More ahead.

00:25:55.700 What a country we live in, eh? If you're the Taliban, you're Justin Trudeau's brother. But if 0.90

00:26:13.780 you have a reason that you don't want the vaccine, if you're young and healthy, if there's a medical

00:26:18.380 reason you can't take it, if you have a religious or conscientious objection, you're an enemy who has

00:26:24.180 to face consequences. Isn't that crazy? I wish he would treat Canadians who have legitimate reasons

00:26:30.380 not to be jabbed. I wish he would treat Canadians as nicely as he's treating his new brothers in the

00:26:36.660 terrorist Taliban. What a world we're in. You know, I remember it was about a year and a half ago when

00:26:41.200 we launched the Fight the Fines campaign, and we just started with one guy, Arthur Pawlowski,

00:26:46.080 our very first client. And since then, we've helped more than 2,000 other people. So many of the

00:26:51.880 tickets have been thrown out. The government has delayed, avoided trial. I think we're going to win

00:26:56.900 the vast majority of them. I want to replicate the success of Fight the Fines. I want to do it

00:27:02.820 for something that's a lot more dangerous. I mean, look, a fine, $1,000, $5,000, that's terrible. And

00:27:07.820 that could really damage a household that's, especially one that's economically precarious.

00:27:13.480 But at the end of the day, I suppose that's just money. Imagine being compelled to get an injection

00:27:19.760 against your will. And I'm sorry, telling someone you've got free will, it's just that you'll be

00:27:25.040 fired if you don't do that. Telling a student you have free will, it's just that you won't be allowed

00:27:30.120 to finish your university degree if you don't do that. I'm sorry, that is, that's called doing it

00:27:34.400 under duress. That's metaphorically like having a gun next to your hand. I mean, yeah, I suppose you're

00:27:40.040 saying the words, I choose, but you're not making a free and unfettered choice. I think that this is

00:27:46.040 terrible. This is contrary to our notions of minority rights and to the very ideas of medicine 1.00

00:27:51.920 where you do no harm and you don't subject people to unnecessary medical procedures and certainly not

00:27:58.560 against their will. I say again, if you want to get the jab, help yourself. Here at Rebel News,

00:28:04.760 some people have taken the vaccine, some people haven't. I don't care. Frankly, it's up to every

00:28:10.580 individual making their own choice, balancing things. You might recall our friend Janine Yunus,

00:28:16.460 who's fighting against vaccine mandates in the U.S. She tweeted the other day that she made the

00:28:22.220 personal choice to take the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, not because she thought she needed it

00:28:26.780 for health reasons, but just that it was so horrific living with vaccine mandates everywhere. And that was

00:28:32.920 her choice. And it was sort of sad to read that because again, she didn't really believe she was doing

00:28:37.680 it for health reasons. She just wanted to stop being swarmed by government bees. You know, everyone

00:28:43.660 has their own reasons, but I don't like the pressure Janine was under to do that. And that pressure to

00:28:49.620 live a healthy social life is nothing compared to the pressure. I mean, imagine a boss saying,

00:28:55.200 take this jab by the end of the week or you will be fired. That's terrifying. That's wrong. That is

00:29:02.640 un-Canadian. If you want to help us fight back, this is a democracy fund project, so you'll get 0.52

00:29:07.640 a charitable tax receipt. Go to fightvaccinepassports.com. I think it's a big one. I think it's a big

00:29:13.080 one. All right. That's the show for today. Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here,

00:29:18.340 you at home, good night. Keep fighting for freedom.
