Rebel News Podcast - Nashville lied about their COVID stats — because they’re too low to justify a panic!

00:00:00.000 Hey, welcome back. I got a little story for you from Nashville, Tennessee. I've only visited

00:00:04.340 briefly. What a wonderful little city. In some ways, it reminds me of New Orleans. A very musical

00:00:12.320 city, of course. Imagine shutting down all the bars and restaurants there. It really strikes

00:00:16.520 at the heart of the city and its character. But I got some awful news about how they shut down

00:00:22.860 those bars and restaurants on false, faked science. I'll get into that here. Even if you've

00:00:29.180 never been to Nashville, you can imagine your own city shut down on a ruse. Hey, before

00:00:36.580 I get to the news in today's show, let me invite you to get the Rebel News Plus subscription.

00:01:01.660 Okay, here's today's podcast.

00:01:02.840 Tonight, Nashville lied about their virus stats because they were too low to justify a panic.

00:01:25.480 It's September 17th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:30.480 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:34.220 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:38.300 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody

00:01:43.180 right to do so.

00:01:48.960 Have you ever seen in Nashville, Tennessee? What a wonderful city. I haven't spent enough

00:01:53.700 time there, but you can feel the music in the bones of the city. It's like the ocean and

00:01:58.960 St. John's, Newfoundland. I suppose you could live in St. John's and have nothing to do with

00:02:04.620 the sea, but not really because it's soaked into everything. The history of the place, everywhere

00:02:10.580 in the city you can see the ocean. Many places you can hear the ocean. Everyone has some connection

00:02:15.720 to it. St. John's couldn't just be moved into the middle of the prairies. That's how music

00:02:21.200 and Nashville go together. What a great town. Big names in music, but little names in music

00:02:27.760 too. Little bars, little music halls, like New Orleans a bit with its blues. And I tell

00:02:34.060 you this because what a terrible strike against the heart of that wonderful city it was to

00:02:39.660 shut down all the little bars and clubs and music halls and restaurants because of the pandemic.

00:02:45.880 I mean, telling Nashville not to listen to music is like telling St. John's not to think of the sea

00:02:51.360 or certainly not to go into it. Yet that's what happened, obviously. I see that the U.S. Attorney

00:02:57.460 General, Bill Barr, is quoted as having said that the pandemic lockdown is the greatest infringement

00:03:03.520 of civil liberties in the United States history other than slavery. And I think he's exactly right.

00:03:09.280 Don't go to work. Don't go to school. Don't go to church. Don't go to weddings or funerals. Don't go

00:03:15.140 to visit your grandparents. Don't travel. Don't gather together. Don't go to the hospital unless

00:03:19.940 it's for the one special magic virus, but everything else from cancer treatment to checkups, that's all

00:03:26.200 canceled. And with no science or policy to back it up, Bill Barr's right. I think the world accepted

00:03:32.780 15 days to flatten the curve, two weeks to slow the spread. It was phrased differently here and there,

00:03:38.720 but people accepted a two-week pause in life because it was all so new and alien. But wouldn't

00:03:44.260 you know it, it's September 17th today, which just happens to be exactly six months from March 17th,

00:03:50.160 when the state of emergency was declared in a lot of different jurisdictions, when things are still

00:03:55.660 just getting started. Now, deaths from the virus are so rare. There are days when not a single person

00:04:01.840 dies. That's not a pandemic anymore, folks. Take mighty Ontario, 14 and a half million

00:04:08.500 citizens, 268 hospitals. There's a grand total of 53 people in hospital in the whole province,

00:04:15.260 only 21 in intensive care, and 12 on ventilators, 12. That's fewer than one in a million people.

00:04:24.120 The average age of victims of the virus, people who've died from it, is in the mid-80s, which

00:04:28.400 happens to be older than life expectancy anyways. But that last number, 12 people on ventilators,

00:04:33.120 in all of Ontario, I remember when there was a panic in April, that we would need tens of thousands

00:04:40.580 of ventilators as we all crowded into hospital alleyways and hallways, trying to get on respirators,

00:04:48.620 waiting for our term to die. No, this didn't happen, thank God. Trudeau and Teresa Tam had a model 0.91

00:04:55.020 that said up to 350,000 people in Canada would die. No, just over 9,000. And that includes a lot

00:05:02.540 of dubious cases being added to the numbers to pad them. People in their 90s who had three underlying

00:05:08.600 conditions, say cancer, diabetes, and a stroke. And then the virus came. I'm not happy that anyone

00:05:13.760 died from it, but please don't tell me we're in a health emergency. But back to Nashville,

00:05:19.320 that lovely city, look at this story. COVID-19 emails from Nashville mayor's office show disturbing

00:05:27.340 revelation. Uh-oh, what's the disturbing revelation? Was everyone going to die? No, the opposite,

00:05:33.660 actually. Nobody was going to die. And that was just contrary to the official narrative of fear

00:05:38.620 and panic. So the good news was covered up by the Democrat mayor. Did you really need me to tell you

00:05:45.300 he was a Democrat? Here's the Twitter page for the mayor. He's wearing a mask. Here's a hint. If a

00:05:50.980 politician is wearing a mask in their publicity photos, he's a leftist. Let me read a scoop from the

00:05:56.800 local TV station there. The coronavirus cases on lower Broadway, that's in Nashville, may have been

00:06:04.360 so low that the mayor's office and the Metro Health Department decided to keep it secret. What?

00:06:10.660 Emails between the mayor's senior advisor and the health department reveal only a partial picture,

00:06:16.300 but what they reveal is disturbing. The discussion involved the low number of coronavirus cases

00:06:23.360 emerging from bars and restaurants and how to handle that. And most disturbingly, how to keep it

00:06:28.120 from the public. Can you believe that? Of course you can. Again, bars, music, halls, that's what makes

00:06:34.820 Nashville Nashville. At least I think so as a casual tourist there, but it's the livelihood of thousands of

00:06:40.440 people too. Let me read from the story some more. On June 30th, contact tracing was given a small

00:06:46.560 view of coronavirus clusters. Construction and nursing homes were found to be causing problems

00:06:52.120 with more than a thousand cases traced to each category, but bars and restaurants reported just 22

00:06:57.840 cases. Leslie Waller from the health department asks, this isn't going to be publicly released,

00:07:04.600 right? Just info for mayor's office. Correct, not for public consumption, writes senior advisor

00:07:10.800 Benjamin Eagles. A month later, the health department was asked point blank about the rumor

00:07:16.200 there are only 80 cases traced to bars and restaurants. Tennessee lookout reporter Nate Rau asks,

00:07:22.000 the figure you gave of more than 80 does lead to a natural question. If there have been over

00:07:26.180 20,000 positive cases of COVID-19 in Davidson and only 80 or so are traced to restaurants and bars,

00:07:31.900 doesn't that mean restaurants and bars aren't a very big problem? Health department official Brian

00:07:37.720 Todd asked, five health department officials, please advise how you recommend I respond.

00:07:44.020 Now I don't need to tell you that 20,000 cases doesn't mean 20,000 people were sick.

00:07:49.940 Many were probably asymptomatic, no symptoms. Some were probably false positive tests, but still

00:07:56.740 the number is the number 20,000 of something. 20,000 cases and only 80 cases were from restaurants

00:08:04.320 and bars and yet they shut down the restaurants and bars and they deliberately hid the facts to

00:08:10.140 justify their lockdown. They knew it was false. Here's the worst part here. My two cents, we have

00:08:16.640 certainly refused to give counts per bar because those numbers are low per site. We could still release

00:08:22.980 the total though. And then a response to the over 80 could be because that number is increasing all

00:08:28.000 the time. We don't want to say a specific number. So they knew there was no problem with the restaurants

00:08:32.400 and bars. In fact, if I'm reading this right, those are probably the safest places in all of Nashville.

00:08:39.160 There's about 5,000 restaurants in Nashville, 80 cases. That's it. Here's an idea. Take your grandma

00:08:47.680 or grandpa out of a senior's home and just roll them into a Nashville restaurant. I mean, 0.54

00:08:53.080 senior's homes have been death traps and these Nashville restaurants sound like sanctuaries.

00:08:59.740 So do you think the public policy behind our lockdowns in Canada or frankly anywhere else in

00:09:04.160 America are any less questionable? Here, watch this wonderful exchange with the British health

00:09:09.960 minister on a talk radio show. They've got curfews over there now. They've got this bizarre rule of six.

00:09:15.860 You can't have more than six people together, even if you've got three kids and two parents and the

00:09:21.180 grandparents come over. You've got three kids plus mom and dad. So that's five people. And then

00:09:25.820 grandma and grandpa come over. That would be seven. So one of them has to wait in the car and only one

00:09:30.960 can visit. You think I'm kidding. You think I'm kidding. Well, I'm not kidding, but this rule is all

00:09:37.060 made up here. There's no science to it. Listen to this exchange.

00:09:40.440 I'm not an epidemiologist. I don't have any medical background, but a lot of us are a little bit

00:09:44.680 confused. Maybe you as health minister can explain to us that I didn't realise that viruses could both

00:09:49.520 tell the time and count so well. Can you explain to me why six people sitting at a table together in

00:09:55.180 a pub at 9.59pm is perfectly safe and seven people sitting in a pub at a table at 10.01pm means we're

00:10:04.640 all going to die? Well, I wouldn't necessarily characterise it as you did there, Julia, but I take

00:10:10.380 your point. The issue being that what we've seen in, for example, Bolton and some other areas is

00:10:15.580 that it's that night time economy. It's towards the end of the evening when people have had

00:10:19.960 a bit to drink, that sometimes people aren't always as aware of the rules or forget the rules.

00:10:27.120 And therefore, you can see groups starting to get together, starting to break the rule of six,

00:10:32.660 starting to have that close contact. And it's one of the things that appears, and I say appears,

00:10:37.580 to be a factor in driving up infection rates in those areas where you see large groups of people

00:10:42.960 late at night who've enjoyed themselves perfectly reasonably with a drink or two,

00:10:47.480 but who then sometimes don't follow the regulations.

00:10:50.280 He just made that up. I'm certain of it. He just made that up. That rationale. Well,

00:10:55.360 people get a bit drunk, so they have poor judgement at 10pm. He's like a kid being called on to

00:11:02.560 answer a question in class about homework that he hadn't read, and he just makes it up to see if

00:11:08.120 he can get by. That's amazing to me. How many people lost their jobs because of this cover-up

00:11:12.840 in Nashville? Oh, but they're just the little people, don't we? Just the waiters and waitresses

00:11:16.900 and cooks and busboys and dishwashers and I guess some musicians. Not the important people like the

00:11:21.900 mask-wearing mayor and all the important people working for him and all the important people on these

00:11:27.060 emails. How many businesses went broke? People who poured everything into their little restaurant

00:11:33.120 or bar for years, maybe decades, and were just ended. How many because of a political trick?

00:11:40.760 I saw this page on Tennessee's government website. Avoid coronavirus scams. Yeah, that's a good idea.

00:11:49.500 Don't fall for fake cures or fake checks. That's a pretty good idea.

00:11:54.480 File a consumer complaint. Hey, that's a good idea. But what if the scam is coming from inside the

00:12:03.860 government? Stay with us for more.

00:12:18.240 Well, it's a myth that there is no private health care in Canada. Of course there is.

00:12:23.920 For example, workers' compensation often pays cash to get workers to the front of the line. Makes

00:12:30.100 sense. The longer a worker isn't working, the higher the cost. Prisoners also go to the front

00:12:36.060 of the line. Soldiers too. And of course there's a line you can go to if you have a few extra bucks.

00:12:43.700 Go to the United States. Something famously done by Jean Chrétien when he flew to the Mayo Clinic.

00:12:49.800 No Canadian waiting lists for him. Lots of politicians and, dare I say, lots of judges like

00:12:57.300 private health care. The Should Ice Hernia Clinic in Ontario is one such example. But mere citizens, 0.98

00:13:04.700 lowly members of the public, well, you get back to the public line, don't you know? That's the new

00:13:10.720 ruling from the British Columbia Supreme Court. In the case of Dr. Brian Day, the founder of the

00:13:17.400 Canby Surgery Center that's been offering a free market alternative to British Columbians

00:13:22.700 for more than 20 years. The judges there issued an 880-page ruling recently on Dr. Day's right

00:13:32.020 to practice free market medicine. He joins us now via Skype from Vancouver. Dr. Day,

00:13:38.360 what a pleasure to see you again.

00:13:39.380 Thank you. It's good to be here.

00:13:42.840 Tell me a little bit, when I first heard that this case was in the Supreme Court, I thought it

00:13:47.580 was the Supreme Court of Canada. This is the B.C. Supreme Court, which I think is like the Court

00:13:53.000 of Queen's Bench in Alberta or would have another name in other provinces. This is not a done deal yet.

00:13:59.680 This still could go to two more appeals, am I right?

00:14:03.180 Oh, it's going to an appeal and absolutely not. It's not a done deal.

00:14:07.660 This is the first decision at the lower level of the three courts that you just alluded to.

00:14:15.020 And we will remember the Quebec decision of 2005. That also lost at the lower court. I think it takes

00:14:24.620 a strong, this was by a single judge, and it takes strength to take government as a judge.

00:14:34.780 And I think that you mentioned some groups that are exempt. To show you, perhaps even more remarkably,

00:14:43.300 the defendant in our trial is listed as the Attorney General of British Columbia. Well, that office

00:14:52.720 has sent private pay patients to our clinic. And one of the attorneys general who was in office

00:15:03.720 during the time that this litigation has been going on, had private pay for surgery himself

00:15:15.780 at a private clinic in British Columbia. So we're very disappointed in the decision

00:15:22.960 where it will be appealed. It's causing, this decision is causing a lot of harm already. We have cancelled

00:15:31.480 all BC residents. So for example, to kind of illustrate, in British Columbia, a resident of British Columbia

00:15:44.500 is not allowed to use our clinic. So next week, I was supposed to do seven surgeries on one day.

00:15:53.020 The four, I cancelled four of those patients. Three of them, the four that I cancelled are from British 1.00

00:15:59.700 Columbia. The three that I'm able to carry on and treat are Albertans. So you have rights.

00:16:06.800 You have rights in, in, in the province of British Columbia that the government denies to its own

00:16:14.580 citizens. This, it does remind me of the former Soviet Union where, so there were shops that only

00:16:22.560 the tourists and visitors could enter. If you were a citizen, you were not allowed there.

00:16:28.320 Yeah. You know what? Um, I am absolutely sure without even checking, but perhaps we ought to check

00:16:33.800 that judges who are elite, who have connections, who have friends, who are wealthy, uh, and who are

00:16:42.600 generally aged. I am sure without even checking, but I think we ought to do an investigation that

00:16:48.360 just as you say, the attorney general, the attorneys general of BC who fight against you in court,

00:16:55.140 use private services, even at your own offices. I got to tell you, I bet the judges do too. I don't

00:17:02.160 understand. You don't need to, you don't need to guess that or research it as a, because I can tell

00:17:06.880 you they have. I mean, we have received payments, the federal government for judges being treated at

00:17:15.040 our clinic. Really? Yes. What, how do they excuse that? I mean, I, I've been reading the other side's

00:17:23.080 argument. They say that you're making too much money or that you're diverting the top talent of the

00:17:29.400 public system. I, I think, well, what's even more important than medical care, I suppose to eat.

00:17:35.980 I mean, if you don't eat in a few days, you die, you don't need doctors all the time. And if we all

00:17:41.880 were in line for, let's say subway sandwiches, I'm making an analogy here, bear with me. And we were

00:17:48.220 all in a very, very, very long line for subway sandwiches and someone opened up a steakhouse next

00:17:54.380 door. And wealthy folks said, I don't want to wait in line for subway. I'm going to go to the

00:17:58.980 steakhouse. Well, how does that make anyone in the subway line, uh, any further behind? In fact,

00:18:06.040 it empties out people from the public line. And by the way, uh, when I'm saying one is like a subway

00:18:11.360 sandwiches and one is a steakhouse, I'm implying that the quality in the private center is so much

00:18:17.140 more luxurious. I don't know if that's necessarily always the case. My point is, if you take people out

00:18:22.460 of the public line and they're using their own money to get out of the public line, how on earth

00:18:28.660 does that make anyone in the public line any farther behind? Well, it's exactly analogous to

00:18:34.140 education, right? And we don't ban private schools or private, uh, Canada. And of course, every, if you

00:18:44.220 send child to a private school, you still pay your full share of public school. So one example,

00:18:51.940 so actually to me that this, this is about patients, patient suffering as a result of this decision

00:19:00.740 already, as I said, we've canceled, um, all BC residents included in our cancellations week,

00:19:08.800 uh, our patients who were supposed to have, um, biopsies on, and tests, um, to see if they had

00:19:17.660 those patients now go on to a massive public waitlist. And one with the COVID pandemic, of course,

00:19:25.860 is that these waitlists have gone up tremendously. There is a, a study out of McMaster that estimates

00:19:33.160 COVID will cause times in Canada to rise by four to seven times. Another more dramatic thing,

00:19:42.460 since in evidence in our trial, which was uncontested evidence, this was in one health region in British

00:19:50.300 Columbia, um, 308 patients died in a single year on the waitlist. They, they, they lived their life

00:19:59.660 out waiting for a procedure and extrapolated to when we began our case, extract extrapolated across Canada,

00:20:07.740 that amounts to 75,000 patients have died on public waitlists in Canada. Since we started our

00:20:15.740 litigation 11 years ago, those, I mean, it sounds an awful thing to say, but that's, that's, um,

00:20:24.780 that's the reality that people said this in the Charlie case, people, patients are suffering and dying on

00:20:33.340 waitlist. And they certainly are across the country and more so in the wake of the COVID crisis.

00:20:40.380 So we're very hopeful of success in our appeal. Yeah. You mentioned, uh, COVID for a number of

00:20:46.940 reasons. Uh, if 75,000 people have died on waiting lists, well, a grand total of about 9,100 people

00:20:54.540 have died because of COVID-19 and the average age in British Columbia, if I'm not mistaken, is 84.

00:21:00.860 So, I mean, I, and of course the, the value of an 84 year old's life is the same value as anyone else.

00:21:07.260 But medically speaking, um, it, I would imagine that 75,000 people dying, waiting for surgery

00:21:15.980 are likely people who were not in the final chapters of life or who had something that could

00:21:20.780 be solved or cured. Uh, I'm not weighing one life against the other. In fact, I'm, I'm doing the

00:21:25.980 opposite. I'm saying eight times as many people have died, uh, from these delays than from COVID-19.

00:21:33.660 It's terrible to talk about lives in terms of statistics, but when you have a law that bans

00:21:38.460 private surgery, you are going to create a massive statistic, aren't you?

00:21:42.620 Well, another statistic, which is from government data, which they tried to block us from entering

00:21:49.980 into evidence, but they collected in British Columbia, they defined the maximum acceptable

00:21:56.620 wait time that a patient should wait for any condition. And for thousands of conditions at any

00:22:02.460 one time in British Columbia, again, this is evidence in court, 40,000 patients are waiting

00:22:09.180 long. So again, it's pre COVID are waiting longer than the government, the defendant in the trial

00:22:16.780 longer than they the maximum acceptable time they should wait. And yet the court has decided this

00:22:25.100 status quo should continue. And those patients don't have a choice, will not have a choice now.

00:22:30.860 And, um, to me, the other important thing, I mean, I alluded to it with the Alberta

00:22:36.940 treaty next week, um, that when the Supreme Court of Canada on the Quebec case, it gave Quebecers rights

00:22:47.580 under, under the charter that the, that this decision denies to British Columbians and indeed

00:22:55.420 rights are denied in Alberta and Ontario and elsewhere.

00:22:58.860 Huh. Well, you're incredibly patient to have gone through this and to keep your fighting spirit alive.

00:23:05.420 And as you mentioned, there are two other levels of appeal. Let me ask you, you're canceling

00:23:09.740 surgeries. That's a crisis for the individual patients. Is there a way to get a stay, to get a

00:23:16.700 legal pause on this ruling? If you were to appeal it, which I presume you will, can the effect of this

00:23:25.420 permit you to continue to do surgeries until this makes its way to the Supreme Court of Canada?

00:23:30.940 Yeah, that's a great question. The answer is yes. And we're in the process.

00:23:35.260 It's going to take a few weeks, but in the meantime, you know, the, the government has

00:23:41.340 introduced fines of up to $20,000 per patient. Well, an average, a common fee for say a knee surgery at

00:23:49.740 our clinic for the, for the, for the, we, this is not a big profit making business. In fact, two or

00:23:58.460 three clinics have gone bankrupt in the last year before this. And we tried to enter evidence in court

00:24:05.340 on this. Our, our clinic generates a profit by 42 to $60,000 for every $5,000 of revenue. And, and there is,

00:24:17.500 the government has imposed fines of up to $20,000 per patient. So obviously we cannot carry on. And we

00:24:25.180 we cannot treat a patient where the, where the revenue is dollars and the profit is $65. And, and the, and

00:24:38.780 it's just impossible economically to, to carry on until we get that stay that we, we will be applying

00:24:45.260 for it. But it's going to take a few weeks because we have to create the argument for the, for the

00:24:51.660 appeal cause. You know, I know the Hippocratic Oath do no harm. And I know there's plenty of medical

00:24:57.260 ethics that require you to treat people, even people you disagree with, even people you find odious.

00:25:04.620 I mean, doctors have a high ethical burden. I find it infuriating as a non-doctor who is not bound by

00:25:13.260 those morals that the same political and legal class that is trying to put you out of business

00:25:23.100 also uses your business. I still can't get over what you've said to me about attorneys general,

00:25:27.900 attorney general staff, judges, federal judges being sent to you while these, the same, and I'm not,

00:25:34.700 I'm not going to tar the entire legal industry with the same brush, but it is a bit of chutzpah

00:25:39.740 in particular for the DC attorney general to use your services while suing you for giving those

00:25:46.140 services. Well, perhaps I can shock you even a little bit more. The judge, this was a decision

00:25:52.940 brought down by a single judge. The judge himself has had private surgery at another clinic and albeit

00:26:01.260 funded under contract by the government. And so, and this begs the question, and it does come down,

00:26:12.460 I think, to moral and ethical principles. Why should this, why should a government have the right

00:26:21.340 to determine that you're long enough that you're now able to let you go to a private clinic and pay for

00:26:29.020 you? When in a democratic society, you do not have that right yourself. That's what the right they've

00:26:36.700 taken away. And I should emphasize, there is only one jurisdiction, there is only one country on earth

00:26:44.700 in which there are jurisdictions which make elite, make private health insurance unlawful. That is in

00:26:53.340 Canada. There is no other country, no other country, China, North Korea, Cuba, Vietnam,

00:27:01.500 communist countries, none of them have laws like this.

00:27:06.860 That's incredible. I want to repeat back to you something you said, because I want to make sure

00:27:11.020 I heard it 100% accurately. Your audio cut out for one second there. Can you confirm for me that you

00:27:17.660 just told me a moment ago, before your point about Canada being the only jurisdiction without

00:27:23.020 a free market alternative, did you tell me that the judge in your case who just issued the ruling

00:27:28.620 against you, I think his name is Judge Steeves, if I'm not mistaken, is that the judge? Did you just say

00:27:34.620 that you know for a fact that Judge Steeves himself personally has had private medical care,

00:27:44.460 even if it was paid for by a public institution? Did you just, is that what you said?

00:27:48.940 I think that's what you said. That's absolutely what I just said. That knowledge is in the public

00:27:54.860 domain. That is not patient. He's not, you know, that is in the public domain.

00:28:00.860 The judge ruled against you. Admitted by the judge. Admitted by the judge.

00:28:05.740 That's appalling. That's a let them eat cake moment. That's a one rule for the one rule for

00:28:14.300 me moment. And it's not just, you know, it's not just a perk. It's not just getting a, you know,

00:28:20.540 first class seats in an airplane or front row tickets to a theater show. This is about life or

00:28:25.580 death surgery in some cases. For the very judge who condemns you for offering free market services,

00:28:32.540 to have private health care for himself. And to admit this publicly, as you say, and yet proceed

00:28:39.740 against you is probably the grossest thing I've heard all week. And it has been infuriated.

00:28:46.300 I wish you good luck in your appeal. I understand your case is being supported by the CCF, the Canadian

00:28:53.420 Constitution Foundation. Is that right? Yes. Well, I wish them good luck. I know them. I'm more

00:29:00.140 familiar with the JCCF, the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms. But I used to actually,

00:29:05.820 about a decade ago, I don't know if you know this, Dr. Day, I was on the board

00:29:09.740 of the CCF way back when. And so I know it's work. I haven't been involved with it in many years.

00:29:15.820 But the fact that they're fighting for freedom with you, I find very encouraging. And I wish both

00:29:21.740 them and you good luck. And I hope you don't bend the knee. I know you don't. I know you've been fighting

00:29:26.460 this for more than a decade. And I wish you continued strength and much good luck.

00:29:31.580 Thanks, Esther.

00:29:32.140 All right. All the best. That's Dr. Brian Day. He's the founder of the Canby Surgery Center,

00:29:37.900 talking to us from his office. A lot of incredible things there. And one, I just had to check with him

00:29:43.020 because I just couldn't believe it when he said it. The actual judge who condemned him and ruled

00:29:48.380 against his private medical clinic has personally used private medical clinics, only in Canada.

00:29:56.220 Stay with us. More ahead.

00:30:08.940 Hey, welcome back. On my monologue last night, Neil writes,

00:30:12.140 no other country would purposely sabotage their largest economic driver.

00:30:16.780 Well, you know what? I've never heard of it either. I mean, Detroit did,

00:30:23.100 through a series of bad decisions, run the auto industry out of town. There are still some

00:30:27.580 auto factories in Michigan, but it wasn't on purpose. It wasn't the goal. No one strode around

00:30:32.300 Michigan and said, we're going to phase out these factories. No one went through Pennsylvania and Ohio

00:30:37.340 and said, we're going to get rid of coal and steel. It just happened for larger economic reasons.

00:30:43.180 Only Canada would say, we're going to decarbonize. Let me know when OPEC does that, okay?

00:30:48.300 On my interview with Marty Moore on lockdown restrictions, Alan writes,

00:30:53.740 I'm with you, Ezra, on the rules, but I'm amazed by how my family and friends and neighbors

00:30:57.500 have gone full Orson Welles on me, so much so that I have stopped giving my opinion due to blowback.

00:31:03.980 You know, it's very sad to me. And, you know, I remember as a child learning about the second

00:31:10.540 world war, in particular about the Nazis. And I remember thinking, how could anyone have gone along 0.54

00:31:15.660 with this? How couldn't they see? Well, it's a child looking at it in retrospect, decades after

00:31:21.420 the war. But the peer pressure, the submission, the compliance out of fear, out of loyalty, out of

00:31:29.420 a sense of patriotism, out of, well, everyone else is doing it, out of bowing to authority. Well,

00:31:33.740 my doctor said so. The man on the telly said so. I see with fresh eyes how so many of our own friends

00:31:43.420 and neighbors would have collaborated and being complicit with any authoritarian or even totalitarian

00:31:51.180 regime, whether it's the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. I find it terrifying to see that.

00:31:58.620 You know what, though? In a small way, Rebel News is fighting back. I believe we're making a little

00:32:03.260 bit of a difference. In Canada, with our Fight to Finds campaign, I don't know if you saw, but our new hire

00:32:08.700 in Australia, Avi Yamini, we hired him on the Friday. On the Saturday, he was arrested by lockdown

00:32:14.140 police. We filed a lawsuit against the police in Victoria State, Australia. In our own small way,

00:32:20.380 we're going to try and fight back. I hope I would have done that if I was in the Soviet Union or in

00:32:27.020 Nazi Germany. I hope I would have fought back. In Nazi Germany, I wouldn't have had a choice that would 0.89

00:32:30.940 have rounded me up if I didn't get out of there. But I feel like we're doing a small part of it. And Bill

00:32:36.780 Barr said this is the worst infringement of civil liberties other than slavery. And you know what,

00:32:41.420 people say, oh, that's too much. Well, it's true. I mean, the Japanese internment was harsher, 0.86

00:32:47.980 but only a little bit harsher. In a way, hundreds of millions of us have been locked into house arrest.

00:32:55.660 At least they had some fig leaf of a rationale. Well, we're at war with Japan and you're Japanese. 1.00

00:33:00.460 That's a racist point of view. But at least there was a rationale there. What's the rationale for

00:33:05.340 locking down everyone of every race and every gender and every age? You don't quarantine the 0.87

00:33:09.980 healthy people. This is an infringement of civil liberties. And my God, we're going to do something

00:33:14.140 about it if we can, at least here at The Rebel. That's the stories for today. I appreciate you

00:33:19.660 being with us. Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World High Quarters,

00:33:23.420 see you at home. Good night and keep fighting for freedom.
