Summary
In the age of selfies and ubiquitous cell phone video, pro-Hamas activists are as brazen and braggarts as the terrorists who carried out the attack on southern Israel on October 7th, 2323. They live streamed it all and bragged about it on social media, and the Israel Defense Forces used some of the selfies, the selfie videos and photos of the terrorists to later track them down and kill them.

Hello, my friends. I want to show you a crazy video today. And I really want you to see the
00:00:03.760
video because you got to see the face of the guy who's saying it. And you got to see all his
00:00:07.820
Instagram pics too. I think he's tantamount to a terrorist and he's roaming around the streets of
00:00:13.100
Canada. Frankly, I'm a little scared. I'm not just saying that for effect. This guy is scary.

00:00:40.860
thing before I get to the podcast. You know, with COVID behind us, who knows what the globalists are

00:01:47.660
Tonight, why is a man named U.A. Smotala in Canada and on our streets? It's December 19th and this is
00:01:55.440
The Ezra Levant Show. Shame on you, you censorious bug.
00:02:11.320
The thing about the October 7th, 2023 terrorist attack on southern Israel that was so shocking is
00:02:18.060
that the terrorists themselves filmed it all. They live-streamed it. They wanted the world to see
00:02:24.140
their horrific torture and murder. They bragged about it. There were thousands of different
00:02:30.260
images. They basically took pictures of their massacre. It was like the Holocaust imagery from
00:02:38.160
the 1940s had been colorized and come alive. It was absolutely shocking. And that's the age we live
00:02:45.840
in. The social media and everyone has their own video camera. What's interesting about that is it
00:02:51.840
allows people to be identified? And the Israel Defense Forces used some of the selfies, the selfie videos
00:03:00.100
and photos of the terrorists to later track them down and kill them. Here in Canada, the pro-Hamas
00:03:07.560
street protesters often film themselves. It's something that their Antifa allies have learned not to do.
00:03:14.760
You've probably heard the phrase, the Black Block. It's not the name of a group. It's the name of a
00:03:19.920
style or a tactic to dress from head to toe in black. No distinguishing characteristics. They love
00:03:27.780
the fact that masks were normalized during COVID. The idea of the Black Block tactic is everyone looks
00:03:34.800
the same. There's no one that's identifiable. You can't, and they often have black umbrellas too to hide
00:03:41.920
cameras. Antifa does not want to be identified. Hamas, some of them follow the Antifa ways. Some of them
00:03:49.860
wear masks to terrorize and to be anonymous, but many of them are as brazen and braggarts as the
00:03:56.920
terrorists on October 7th, 2023. And so it is that in this age of selfies and ubiquitous cell phone
00:04:03.920
video, that there are some people online who have made a kind of hobby out of tracking down who these
00:04:10.900
Hamas protesters are. And one of them is someone who I don't know his or her real name, but they go by
00:04:17.060
Leviathan online. And what's interesting is whoever this person, or frankly, it could be a group of
00:04:23.780
people are, they look at open source, publicly available social media photos and try and match
00:04:32.480
who's who, and maybe do a reverse image search and say, well, who is this protester in their real life?
00:04:38.820
Oh, they run this restaurant, or they work for this government agency. It's interesting that one of the
00:04:44.440
most astonishing cases was an absolute Nazi, literally giving the Nazi salute, was working in a Jewish
00:04:52.640
hospital in a kosher restaurant, but a complete Nazi Hamas supporter. Just incredible.
00:04:58.120
So Leviathan tracks people down and, and not tracks them down physically, but just online finds out who
00:05:06.940
they are. And I want to show you a public rant by one such pro-Hamas activist, who, this is not a
00:05:16.340
private video, this was filmed and uploaded by this pro-Hamas activist himself. Now I want to warn you,
00:05:23.300
there is an enormous amount of profanity here. The F word is said probably a dozen times. So if you
00:05:30.820
don't want to hear that, you're going to want to skip ahead or turn the volume down. I'm going to leave
00:05:36.300
it in because I think you have to understand who we're dealing with here. So without further ado,
00:05:42.540
let me show you a video filmed by Uwais Motala, who lives in Cambridge, Ontario. Take a look and a listen.
00:05:54.320
I'm only talking to those motherfuckers that have a problem with pro-Palestine. So what are you going
00:06:01.720
to do? What are you going to do? When are you going to kill us all? When are you going to silence us all?
00:06:07.000
Put us out of our misery. Because we're going to come after you, you know that? We're coming. I don't
00:06:14.260
give a fuck what you say. We're coming. You won't be able to handle this. There's no fucking bombs.
00:06:24.700
There's not enough bombs to kill all of us. You better do it because we're going to get you for
00:06:30.680
all those dead babies, you fucking pieces of shit. Fuck you. Fuck your little white race, you
00:06:36.480
motherfucker. Fuck Christmas. This is not your fucking land. You should not be anywhere else.
00:06:47.820
Well, fuck you, motherfucker. Fuck your country. Fuck your race. Fuck your culture. Fuck Christmas.
00:06:56.120
Because the master race says so. You keep killing babies, we're going to get you, motherfuckers.
00:07:03.240
Fuck you and your rights. Fuck you and your free speech. Fuck you and your free thoughts,
00:07:11.420
your free conscience, all that fucking freedom bullshit. We're going to get you.
00:07:16.780
Well, I don't think I need to summarize, but I will. He threatens to kill Christian white people and
00:07:24.760
Jews, sure. Absolutely racist, yeah. Directed to those who would question free Palestine. So
00:07:32.000
he says, F, free speech. You will be killed. We are coming. You won't be able to handle all of this.
00:07:40.420
There's not enough bombs to kill all of us, he says. So he's both the victim and the threatener in his
00:07:46.280
own mind. You better do it because we are going to get you for all those dead babies, you effing
00:07:52.640
pieces of S-H-I-T. F you. F your little white race. And I'm not even going to say all this profanity.
00:08:00.080
F your country. F your race. F your culture. And F Christmas. Do you think that they only,
00:08:07.040
they'll stop their rage at the Jews? Do you remember why the Crusades were started? It was
00:08:12.660
the attempt for the Christian faith to retake Jerusalem. Yeah, the Jews were in the way of
00:08:17.940
the Islamists. But you hear it right here by Uwez, well, I can't even say his name.
00:08:27.020
He hates Christians even more than he hates Jews. And weirdly, he appropriates Hitler's phrase of the
00:08:33.160
master race. He calls himself the master race. It's sort of clear to me he's been reading up on
00:08:40.120
Hitler as a fanboy. He says, we're going to get you. F you and your rights. F you and your free
00:08:49.060
speech. F you on your free. It's like he's read our constitution. F you and your free conscience.
00:08:54.020
All that effing freedom BS. We're going to get you. And he was ranting. I mean, it was spitflack,
00:09:02.820
wasn't it? Uwez Motala is his name. According to Leviathan, he's the owner of AIMCAN Productions,
00:09:13.000
a videography company based out of Cambridge, Ontario. My research here comes entirely from
00:09:19.480
Leviathan. He says he provides drone production and video editing. And he's a proud graduate of
00:09:26.300
Humber College. And he used to work at Rogers TV as a production assistant. That's just his latest
00:09:33.800
rant. But on multiple times, he has gone online with similar messages, including on Remembrance Day
00:09:40.080
when he said F November 11th. That's what he thinks about veterans who fought for Canada and who died for
00:09:47.840
Canada. He said F 9-11, which he obviously treats as a happy day. And obviously he said F October 7th.
00:09:58.500
That's the Hamas attack on southern Israel. He, I mean, he's just out of control on social media. He says
00:10:08.100
the establishment, the powers, the elites must be destroyed. Whatever it is, this is, needs to die.
00:10:15.820
He said the demons need to be stopped by force. By demons he means Jews and Christians too. The world
00:10:23.140
needs an all-out war. And then he weirdly says this is our country. He's talking about Canada.
00:10:33.620
And just to be clear, I mean, sometimes people say, oh, he's only against Zionists. Not this guy.
00:10:38.460
He explicitly says Jews. He explicitly talks about Christians as if he needed any clarification.
00:10:45.680
I just want to show you that clip one more time now that I've gone through and sort of parsed it.
00:10:51.000
And as I talk, we'll show more images that Leviathan has captured because, of course,
00:10:56.780
that video is very dramatic. But he says even crazier things in still images. Here just for a second,
00:11:03.500
and I hate to do it to you, but I just want you to see, this guy is still at large, what he is saying
00:11:08.440
about taking back what he regards as his country by force. F Christmas, F 9-11, F November 11. Take a look.
00:11:17.880
I'm only talking to those motherfuckers that have a problem with pro-Palestine.
00:11:23.340
So what are you going to do? What are you going to do? When are you going to kill us all?
00:11:29.020
When are you going to silence us all? Put us out of our misery?
00:11:33.080
Because we're going to come after you, you know that? We're coming.
00:11:37.100
I don't give a fuck what you say. We're coming.
00:11:44.100
You won't be able to handle this. There's no fucking bombs. There's not enough bombs to kill all of us.
00:11:51.120
You better do it, because we're going to get you. For all those dead babies, you fucking pieces of shit.
00:11:56.960
Fuck you. Fuck your little white race, you motherfucker.
00:12:05.520
This is not your fucking land. You should not be anywhere else.
00:12:11.160
But fuck you, motherfucker. Fuck your country. Fuck your race. Fuck your culture. Fuck Christmas.
00:12:23.280
You keep killing babies, we're going to get you, motherfuckers.
00:12:40.120
Yeah. Now, I'm for free speech, but this guy is calling for murder, I think.
00:12:49.560
If this guy were white, old stock Canadian, and if he were making threats like this about gay people, about Muslim people,
00:12:58.520
you bet the police would come to his house and knock on his door and probably charge him with a hate crime.
00:13:05.020
I mean, compare what this guy does and says to what the peaceful convoy truckers did in 2022.
00:13:13.180
And they were arrested and jailed, and, you know, many of them are still on trial, like our friend Tamara Leach.
00:13:19.160
Now, this is just what was captured in one instance by Leviathan.
00:13:24.960
You can only imagine what's said in foreign languages like Arabic and Farsi.
00:13:29.280
And this is the two-tier policing I'm telling you about.
00:13:33.880
I was at a street corner in broad daylight in my own neighborhood in Toronto, and police arrested me.
00:13:43.320
Because my mere presence, said the cop, would incite a breach of the peace.
00:13:48.460
Here's a reminder of Officer McDuff telling me what I was doing criminally.
00:13:53.380
You had a designated area to stay in, and you agreed to stay in it.
00:13:59.520
Acting Inspector Ford told me they had a media area for you, and you guys stayed in it.
00:14:04.940
Because it's not up to him to say you have free speech there, but not here.
00:14:08.140
Well, yeah, because you're inciting this crowd, and then it breaches the peace.
00:14:12.060
Well, your presence is inciting them, and that's exactly what you're trying to do.
00:14:18.800
I want you to take a picture of the hate crime that you're abiding.
00:14:21.240
Well, you could have done it on the other side.
00:14:24.620
Okay, now I'm going to tell you to move over there.
00:14:26.360
And if you don't cross the road, you'll get arrested for breach of the peace.
00:14:34.240
Because I'm a Jew, I'm a citizen, and I'm your boss.
00:14:38.240
And I don't leave because you say Jews aren't allowed on the streets.
00:14:41.380
In the interest of keeping peace here and public safety, you're under arrest for breach of
00:14:48.680
So standing there, peacefully, on a public sidewalk, trying to photograph some super
00:14:58.120
And that was enough to arrest me, handcuff me, take me in a police car to jail, and hold
00:15:08.000
But that insane rant, calling for murder, calling for violence, yeah, no problem.
00:15:17.620
Because Justin Trudeau has let in millions of people like that.
00:15:22.860
And that guy, frankly, in the car, it felt like the kind of a video that an ISIS terrorist
00:15:28.020
would record right before he does his nasty work.
00:15:31.180
In fact, let me play for you one of the clips of the terrorists who went and attacked Parliament
00:15:39.660
You might remember the storming of Parliament Hill by an ISIS gunman.
00:15:46.060
Look at the similarities between these two and their cell phone video recordings from
00:15:52.000
For those who are involved in listening to this movie, this is a retaliation for Afghanistan
00:15:56.140
and it has helped us to make some troops for us.
00:16:00.120
So we are retaliating in the Mujahideen of this world.
00:16:02.780
We have to become one of our enemies by fighting and bombing us and creating a lot of terror in
00:16:08.160
our country and killing us, killing our enemies.
00:16:11.000
So just telling me if I'm soldiers, just to show you that you're not going to be safe
00:16:19.160
It's a disgrace you guys have forgotten God and have you left every indecency in things
00:16:27.740
We are good people, righteous people, believers of God and believe in His laws and His prophets.
00:16:32.860
So that's my message to all of you and this, inshallah, will not cease till you guys decide
00:16:36.920
to be a peaceful country and stay to your own and stop going to other countries and stop
00:16:40.600
occupying and killing the righteous of us who are trying to bring back religious law in
00:16:46.120
Yeah, that Uwais fella is like one inch away from, I mean, he's agitated.
00:16:57.680
He's got a bit of an accent, but maybe he's just growing up in Hamas's sagas or something.
00:17:02.940
I suspect that he's an immigrant to Canada, either under Trudeau or perhaps even under
00:17:08.560
I think that we have a crisis in Canada and we have many crises and every single one of
00:17:18.120
Every financial indicator, health care waiting lists, the unaffordability of housing and groceries,
00:17:30.680
But one thing mass immigration has also brought to our country are hundreds of thousands of
00:17:36.280
people who think just like this little terrorist does.
00:17:40.180
And the problem with having 100,000 violently oriented men like that is we don't have that
00:17:48.280
And that's why police were very brave to arrest me, a middle-aged Jew, for being on the public
00:17:55.500
sidewalk because they knew I wasn't going to blow anything up or threaten anyone with
00:18:00.840
But how many of those Uwe's fellas, that's his name, are there amongst the pro-Hamas protesters
00:18:11.920
And if they're not afraid, well, our politicians certainly are.
00:18:15.540
What the hell is that guy even doing in Canada?
00:18:32.840
Well, here in Canada, we are obsessed with Canada.
00:18:36.100
I suppose it's human nature to think of yourself as the center of the universe.
00:18:39.700
I refer to that in terms of Donald Trump, who is accomplishing a tremendous amount of things
00:18:45.280
based out of Mar-a-Lago before he's even inaugurated as the president.
00:18:50.480
He's conducting diplomacy and economic diplomacy.
00:18:54.240
And he certainly got Canadians in a tizzy with his social media posts about us becoming
00:19:00.860
But I dare say that he actually has bigger fish to fry rather than poking at Canadian
00:19:07.280
inferiority complexes, whether it's ending the Russia-Ukraine war, trying to restart the
00:19:14.540
Abraham Accords in the Middle East, or dealing with America's largest economic and military
00:19:25.860
And joining us now to talk about this is an expert who has been tracking the subject for
00:19:32.040
He's the author of the new book, Plan Red, China's Project to Destroy America.
00:19:38.720
You know him as our favorite expert on the subject, Gordon G. Chang, who joins us now.
00:19:47.220
You know, we, everyone, I guess, is interested in themselves.
00:19:53.720
But I tell you, Donald Trump, I mean, one of the signature items of his first term was
00:20:01.140
Give me your thoughts on Trump's approach in his second term towards China.
00:20:15.000
And we don't exactly know how Trump is going to deal with China because he's been sending
00:20:21.660
Now, during the campaign, he talked about tariffs, a 10 percent tariff for fentanyl and tariffs
00:20:31.760
And he even mentioned 100 percent on Chinese goods.
00:20:36.260
What we've seen recently, though, in last several weeks is a very different Donald Trump.
00:20:42.040
When he was in Paris for the Notre Dame opening, he talked about China can help with Ukraine.
00:20:50.440
And on Monday, the 16th, when he gave his impromptu press conference at Mar-a-Lago,
00:20:55.820
he said China and the United States can solve all the world's problems.
00:21:02.740
And as we all know, he invited Xi Jinping to the inauguration.
00:21:06.860
So it looks like he is trying to end up with some sort of grand bargain with China.
00:21:12.980
But we will only know once he actually enters the Oval Office, because there's just so many
00:21:24.900
I was looking for my old copy of The Art of the Deal, and I couldn't find it.
00:21:33.080
He talks about how he uses dramatic offers just to reset things, how he likes to push
00:21:38.420
the other guy back a bit to knock him off balance.
00:21:45.380
And I remember in his first term when he was dealing with North Korea's Kim Jong-un,
00:21:57.060
So I wouldn't put too much stock in flattery, because I but I mean, it's something to keep
00:22:06.220
Do you think Xi Jinping is actually going to attend the inauguration?
00:22:14.300
At the 16th, Trump said, you know, Xi Jinping has not turned down his invitation, which is
00:22:24.100
But it's pretty unlikely, because this would be China's leader, who believes that he is
00:22:29.740
now in charge of the world, who thinks the United States is in terminal decline, going
00:22:34.460
to a ceremony honoring a peaceful transfer in a democracy.
00:22:39.720
And of course, the Communist Party has taxed not only the United States, but it taxed the
00:22:46.980
So it would be a very difficult thing for Xi Jinping to swallow.
00:22:52.220
I mean, but it's I think that's Trump given the love Trump in Trump's mind.
00:23:02.680
I mean, he certainly isn't saying that about Justin Trudeau.
00:23:08.080
I mean, it used to be that there was sort of an order.
00:23:11.780
Mexico and Canada typically were the first two visits or meetings that America had.
00:23:20.320
Hey, let me ask you one more thing about China that's been on my mind.
00:23:24.900
We haven't had this phenomenon in Canada that I'm aware of.
00:23:27.800
But for the past couple of weeks, there have been reports of all sorts of drone sightings in
00:23:34.580
various states of the U.S. and lots of citizen journalists taking photos of them.
00:23:40.120
I'm not sure how many were just mistaken for airplanes or how many are even just hoaxes.
00:23:45.900
But there's a lot of unidentified objects flying around.
00:23:49.960
This reminds a lot of people of that Chinese spy balloon that came down from Canada over the American
00:23:58.100
And it was just so obviously a nefarious major aircraft.
00:24:04.960
Do we know what these drones across America were?
00:24:09.060
I know some people have speculated that they're foreign and foreign drones or spy drones.
00:24:22.520
There are the drones that we know about from China and possibly from other foreign powers
00:24:29.360
that have been surveilling U.S. weapons facilities and military bases.
00:24:35.200
So, for instance, the Chinese national has been charged with flying a drone over Vandenberg Space
00:24:41.500
And there have been these large drones over Langley Air Force Base in Virginia.
00:24:46.140
So, that we have a pretty good handle on because most of those do appear to be from China.
00:24:53.200
But you talked about another drone phenomena, which is over my state of New Jersey, where
00:24:58.780
there have been all sorts of objects that have been identified, especially over the last three
00:25:10.220
Now, Trump at his press conference on the 16th said that the federal government knows exactly
00:25:15.280
what's going on, but has not told the American public.
00:25:18.820
We have heard all of these comments from the Biden administration and from the Pentagon saying
00:25:26.560
But that really doesn't fit in with the sightings that we have seen.
00:25:30.660
So, there's a lot of speculation and much of it is ominous.
00:25:34.700
As a matter of fact, just for example, the Pentagon says that these drones are domestic.
00:25:41.140
If they're domestic, I'm much more worried because it appears then that there probably
00:25:46.300
is some sort of federal operation over New Jersey.
00:25:50.520
And they could very well be sniffing, which is the military term.
00:25:58.080
And it is the kind of thing that the public, if they are not told the answer, I can only imagine
00:26:04.040
speculation and imagination and worst case scenarios.
00:26:06.900
I don't think the world in general knew how progressed drone warfare was until we saw it
00:26:16.540
I mean, it is the pointy edge of the spear in terms of 21st century warfare, especially
00:26:23.920
Even naval drones, the drones that Ukraine has used to sink capital ships of the Russian
00:26:31.620
Navy, you know, those drones might cost a few thousand bucks.
00:26:35.280
They're sinking hundreds of millions of dollars worth of ships.
00:26:38.340
I think drones, there's an aura of terror about them because they sneak up at you.
00:26:49.040
I think the administration should certainly clear the air.
00:26:52.020
Do you think Trump is getting a briefing on that?
00:26:54.220
I'm not sure what briefings he would get as a president-elect.
00:26:57.860
Do you think he knows, but he's just not being permitted to say?
00:27:07.900
Can you comment on the drones that are flying around New Jersey's reports?
00:27:11.780
It seems like the American people have a big disk.
00:27:17.820
Look, our military knows where they took off from.
00:27:22.620
If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage.
00:27:25.340
They know where it came from and where it went.
00:27:29.620
And for some reason, they don't want to comment.
00:27:32.300
And I think they'd be better off saying what it is.
00:27:37.760
And for some reason, they want to keep people in suspense.
00:27:40.820
I can't imagine it's the enemy because if it was the enemy,
00:27:49.880
For some reason, they don't want to tell the people.
00:27:51.680
And they should because the people are really, I mean,
00:28:01.060
I think maybe I won't spend the weekend in Bedminster.
00:28:06.340
Have you received an intelligence briefing on the drones?
00:28:10.020
Do you have any reason to think they're a threat?
00:28:14.940
from members of Congress more recently, this week.
00:28:18.600
And they basically said nothing out of the ordinary.
00:28:22.600
But that doesn't comport with many of the sightings that we have seen.
00:28:27.480
So, for instance, there have been a number of people who have said
00:28:31.280
drones have been coming over New Jersey from the Atlantic.
00:28:35.660
And that would not be consistent with what the Pentagon has been saying.
00:28:42.320
And then, of course, there's the behavior of some of these drones,
00:28:44.960
which don't, you know, they're the size of cars.
00:28:49.760
And also, they've been operating in ways which we don't have seen
00:29:00.340
And it's from one of the more popular consumer drone companies called DJI.
00:29:06.420
But really, every drone you go to buy is made in China.
00:29:10.800
And more than that, the information from your drone is routed through China and back to you.
00:29:19.220
So, I mean, the drone that I have, it's a toy for me and the kids.
00:29:24.600
But everything that that drone sees is, I'm sure, being backed up in some giant mass data center.
00:29:35.460
I'm sure that the Chinese government has mapped almost every square inch of America,
00:29:39.540
not even with their own spy drones, but with hobbyist users like me who, you know,
00:29:45.740
I mean, they're not going to get anything interesting from me.
00:29:49.300
But I think that there's a real, and closed circuit TV companies, a lot of surveillance cameras,
00:30:05.080
I mean, I'm sure they're getting extra things from these drones.
00:30:07.680
But I'm probably part of the problem myself, because I have a little toy drone.
00:30:12.000
Yeah, with a DJI drone, DJI makes about 70% of the world's drones.
00:30:17.000
With the DJI drone, there's, you have to opt out of a couple things.
00:30:22.700
And for instance, they say they send everything to the cloud, unless you don't want them to do that.
00:30:28.020
And, you know, I don't have a drone, so I haven't seen this.
00:30:31.280
But there are ways that you can maybe prevent China from getting that information.
00:30:41.480
I mean, there's an intense amount of information that's being shared in all the visuals.
00:30:46.660
Let me ask you one last question, sort of in this vein.
00:30:49.800
I'm frustrated by the fact that China is a leader in drones.
00:30:52.980
And I don't know if there was a government policy decision behind that.
00:30:56.500
I think that there was a government policy under Biden to heavily regulate artificial intelligence.
00:31:04.560
And at least that's what some people in the industry said, including, you know, venture capitalists and sort of angel investors like Mark Andreessen.
00:31:12.720
And Donald Trump is taking a different approach.
00:31:15.920
He appointed David Sachs to be the czar of not just cryptocurrencies, but AI, with a mandate to make them free and American.
00:31:26.080
I'm worried about Chinese AI in a number of ways.
00:31:38.440
According to the announcement where David Sachs was made the AI and crypto czar, I think Trump really just wanted to bring the industry back to America.
00:31:49.020
Yeah, one thing we know is that China weaponizes everything that it has.
00:31:54.320
So we should not be helping China develop artificial intelligence, even if it's just for, quote unquote, civilian purposes.
00:32:02.140
Because China has this doctrine of military civil fusion, which means that everything that a civilian institution had, business, university, whatever, gets pipelined to the Chinese military if they want it.
00:32:12.940
So we should be not selling them any chips, any technology.
00:32:18.120
There should be just a full wall between the United States and China.
00:32:22.860
And we should be enforcing and making sure our partners do the same thing.
00:32:28.020
Well, I tell you, there's so much to think about.
00:32:31.660
I haven't read it yet, but that sounds like great Christmas reading.
00:32:36.540
You can follow him on Twitter at Gordon G Chang.
00:32:39.460
And his new book, I'm going to pick it up and read it over Christmas, is called Plan Red, China's Project to Destroy America.
00:32:47.640
Well, I hope they fail in that project, and I hope your warnings are being heeded.
00:32:53.200
You don't have to answer it if it violates your confidence.
00:32:57.060
Have you been contacted by people within the nascent administration?
00:33:04.840
I mean, my guess is you're not allowed to answer that question if the answer was yes.
00:33:08.580
But I hope that the incoming administration taps into your expertise and your knowledge.
00:33:14.420
I mean, it's one thing to be warning from the outside, but it would be very powerful if you had some ears on the inside.
00:33:26.220
You know, I've already got a boss, so I don't need another one.
00:33:28.840
And, you know, my views, I think that, you know, they know what I think, so I don't think they really need to get in touch.
00:33:38.300
And, you know, my views might be considered more extreme than the views that they have.
00:33:51.040
And who knows, perhaps you'll be called to testify from time to time before Congress on important information.
00:33:56.700
And I look forward to reading your book and getting the briefing directly.
00:34:02.840
And I want to encourage people, if you're not following Gordon on Twitter, you're doing it wrong.
00:34:07.160
He is absolutely the leading source of pro-freedom, pro-Western information about China.
00:34:13.900
And you can follow him at Gordon G. Chang on Twitter, now known as X.
00:34:47.300
It's so nice to have a president, once again, who is respected on the world stage.
00:34:54.800
And, you know, the more I think about it, Trump has bigger fish to fry than Justin Trudeau.
00:34:59.340
No one thinks about Justin Trudeau other than Canadians.
00:35:01.760
I mean, sure, Trudeau is getting a little bit of global attention because he's just sort of melting down.
00:35:10.000
But Canada, unfortunately, just isn't in the first rank of nations anymore.
00:35:14.680
No one really cares what we say or do because Trudeau has diminished us all.
00:35:21.500
The value of Canada as a secure nation is a far higher value to the USA than mere U.S. statehood would be.
00:35:28.040
U.S. statehood for Canada would dissolve the current international border and no tariffs could be imposed.
00:35:32.960
Of course, we'd evaporate the federal government and enjoy better taxes.
00:35:36.600
But I'm pretty sure our best path forward is to follow Danielle Smith's lead and get serious about keeping our house in order while being good neighbors and friends with the USA and the rest of the world at large.
00:35:47.840
I mean, the ideal is to have a strong, respected, respectable, happy, peaceful, prosperous and free Canada.
00:35:56.260
And I think we had that until about 10 years ago.
00:35:59.720
I think the reason why Trump's 51st state jabs hit so hard is because we have been so diminished.
00:36:08.620
It's almost like the question, what is a woman?
00:36:11.280
We all know, but the politicians won't answer that.
00:36:18.060
I mean, he might push play on the message track.
00:36:27.260
It's really he's turned it into a hotel for people.
00:36:32.320
He says we're racist and sexist and should be ashamed of ourselves.
00:36:35.840
He's trying to destroy our history, even rewriting our anthem.
00:36:38.620
I don't know if Trudeau could answer the question, what is a woman?
00:36:42.500
And I don't know if he could answer the question, what is Canada?
00:36:45.420
So, yeah, I would like to get back to the real Canada.
00:36:47.740
By the way, I don't think Canada would all join the U.S. as one 51st state.
00:36:55.520
I think that that would be a disaster within Canada.
00:37:02.380
I saw someone on Twitter do something really interesting.
00:37:05.420
If Donald Trump said, if you're born in Canada and have Canadian citizenship and you have X amount of, I forget what this thought experiment said, X amount of assets or whatever, you're welcome to come and just be an American.
00:37:23.900
I think if Trump said, remember that tweet Trump did where he said anyone with a billion dollars, you're welcome to come, we'll clear all the red tape for you.
00:37:32.220
If Trump said any Canadian with a million dollars or more and a clean criminal record and a Canadian passport, if you want to come down here or if you're a medical doctor or this, like if he had, I'm just going with a thought experiment.
00:37:48.060
Out of 42 million Canadians, of whom 5 million are temporary residents courtesy of Trudeau, I bet a million people would take Trump up on the deal.
00:37:58.120
I mean, last year alone, as we showed you in that CBC story, what, 122,000 left in one year alone under current terms.
00:38:05.740
If Trump said, I'm welcoming the best and brightest, the most entrepreneurial, the most freedom-loving Canadians, come on down.
00:38:19.020
Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
