Rebel News Podcast - One group of refugees Trudeau refuses to take： Hong Kong dissidents

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Have you ever heard of someone that Justin Trudeau will not accept to Canada

00:00:05.420 as an immigrant or a refugee? We know he takes terrorists, including returning ISIS rapists. 0.90

00:00:11.720 We know he takes bogus refugees from the United States, including those ordered deported. 0.96

00:00:16.720 But I think we finally found someone that Trudeau just can't stomach. Oh, he is in a pickle on this

00:00:25.240 one. I'll tell you in today's podcast. Before I do, let me invite you to become a Rebel News Plus

00:00:31.020 subscriber. Go to rebelnews.com. It's eight bucks a month or 80 bucks for the whole year.

00:00:36.860 You get the video version of this show, as well as Sheila Gunn-Reed's show and David Menzies' show.

00:00:43.040 All right. Here's today's podcast.

00:00:55.240 Tonight, we finally found a group of refugees that Justin Trudeau refuses to take. 0.99

00:01:04.620 It's May 5th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:08.980 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:12.680 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:16.740 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my

00:01:21.340 bloody right to do so.

00:01:27.740 Justin Trudeau's open borders globalist ideology is what he believes in more than anything,

00:01:33.180 other than his passion for marijuana. And even that doesn't really count. His marijuana obsession

00:01:38.760 isn't so much ideological as it's just his hobby.

00:01:42.620 The current approach on drugs is not working. I'm in favor of legalizing it.

00:01:47.800 Five or six times in my life that I've taken a puff of protecting our children from marijuana.

00:01:54.540 So yes, five or six times in my life that the continued prohibition of marijuana,

00:01:58.960 that's a lot of smoking. I've never done it except with people I know and trust.

00:02:03.280 Same thing with Trudeau and being a male feminist. It's not really so much a philosophy, it's more a

00:02:09.680 cynical gimmick to preempt and silence questions about his sexual harassment of women like Rose Knight.

00:02:17.100 Like I said, I do not feel that I acted inappropriately in any way. But I respect

00:02:25.160 the fact that someone else might have experienced that differently.

00:02:29.180 Joe Biden should really try the Trudeau approach. No, no, no, no. I'm not a serial groper. I'm just a

00:02:35.840 male feminist who feels the need to dominate every powerful woman in my orbit by invading their 1.00

00:02:41.900 personal space, having chest-to-chest hugs to show these women I'm their master. Trudeau is such a 0.95

00:02:48.000 creep, but the media party covers for him just like they did for Bill Clinton. But yeah, globalism is the

00:02:53.620 one thing Trudeau actually believes in. He's not particularly bright compared to his father,

00:02:58.960 Pierre Trudeau. But Justin Trudeau absorbed enough of his dad's hostility to the West and romantic love

00:03:05.440 for third world dictatorships. That's the closest thing he has to an ideology. Here's Trudeau

00:03:12.280 sitting at the feet of George Soros. You can tell who is the boss in this meeting. I normally show you

00:03:18.680 the cropped photo of just Trudeau and Soros that Trudeau himself tweeted, but Christia Freeland was in

00:03:24.500 the meeting too. She may have actually set the meeting up. She's good friends with Soros. According

00:03:29.560 to the Globe and Mail, before she was elected as an MP, she was approved by Soros to write his

00:03:34.980 authorized biography, translation, a fawning pro-Soros piece of propaganda. Can you imagine that she became

00:03:42.240 Canada's foreign minister and now our prime minister? Is there any doubt why Canada has been such an

00:03:48.540 anti-U.S., anti-NATO globalist mess now? The entire Roxham Road fiasco, taking 50,000 bogus refugees 1.00

00:03:56.100 is pure Soros. But in fairness, Trudeau's loathing for Canada and its borders is something

00:04:01.280 he inherited from his own dad, well before he would have met Soros. Remember this speech he gave

00:04:07.060 on the campaign trail in 2015 when he said he would reverse Stephen Harper's policy, a policy that other

00:04:12.760 allies like the UK have, to strip convicted terrorists who have a dual citizenship of their

00:04:18.260 Canadian citizenship? Trudeau said they were just as Canadian as you are.

00:04:22.320 Terrorist attacks against this country. The individual in question, Mr. Trudeau is a Canadian.

00:04:26.720 Trudeau will let everyone, anyone into our country, terrorists, even returning ISIS rapists 1.00

00:04:32.820 coming back from the Islamic State. We know that actually someone who has engaged and turned away

00:04:41.920 from that hateful ideology can be an extraordinarily powerful voice. Trudeau will even keep people who

00:04:48.720 just walk across Roxham Road. They have criminal records, even if they're child predators. He'll keep

00:04:57.280 them. Here's a sex offender faking it as a refugee. Good enough for Trudeau, though. Everyone is welcome.

00:05:04.320 Anyone. Indiscriminate. No need to actually be a real refugee. No need to be in Canada's own interests. 1.00

00:05:10.080 It's all about open borders. I've never heard of anyone turned away by Trudeau. Have you? Until now.

00:05:19.360 Look at this. Published in the Globe and Mail. I criticize the Globe a lot, but on their China 1.00

00:05:23.920 coverage, like their coverage of Jody Wilson-Raybould, I must give credit where it's due. The Globe has had

00:05:27.880 the best coverage of the China crisis of any Canadian newspaper other than the Epoch Times, and that's one

00:05:32.720 of the reasons why Trudeau refuses to take their questions at his daily scrums, too. Isn't that funny?

00:05:37.360 Let me read this story, which just happens to be written by Bob Fyfe and Steve Chase,

00:05:41.620 the two Globe reporters who did the heavy lifting on the Jody Wilson-Raybould stories, by the way.

00:05:46.440 Freeland mum on whether Hong Kong asylum seekers will be granted refuge, as Bigger Way predicted.

00:05:53.580 Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland asked about dozens of asylum claims made by Hong Kong protesters

00:05:58.700 in Canada, praised the rich contribution immigrants from this former British colony have made to this

00:06:03.940 country, but declined to indicate whether Ottawa would grant the applicants refuge.

00:06:09.120 Now, I suppose that's technically fair enough. It would be inappropriate for a political cabinet

00:06:14.700 minister to prejudge the outcome of a refugee application, which is a bureaucratic or a quasi-judicial

00:06:22.820 decision. It would be like a politician weighing in on a court case. Let me read some more.

00:06:26.880 The 46 would-be refugees from Hong Kong applied for asylum claims between January 1st and March 31st,

00:06:35.540 2020. The claims, which are all pending, were received at airports, Canada Border Security Agency

00:06:40.860 bureaus, and Immigration Refugee and Citizenship Canada officers across the country. Many of those

00:06:45.940 claiming asylum in Canada faced charges in Hong Kong in connection with the protests. Well, that's the

00:06:50.960 thing, isn't it? Trudeau loves open borders. He loves them. Everyone's welcome. Terrorists, rapists,

00:06:55.860 registered sex offenders, criminals. But yikes, a democracy activist from Hong Kong? As in the people 1.00

00:07:02.480 who love freedom so much they're willing to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party and risk another 0.88

00:07:06.700 Tiananmen Square massacre? Yikes, those are the people that Trudeau would consider? He hates those people.

00:07:13.040 I mean, he hates them. They're the same kind of people that the CBC state broadcaster smears, even calls 0.75

00:07:18.660 racist, as they did in this weird repeated attack on the Epoch Times, a newspaper run by ethnically

00:07:23.780 Chinese people who criticized the Chinese dictatorship. This is a tough one for Trudeau.

00:07:28.460 Two of his favorite things are in conflict. Does he obey George Soros and the open borders ideology,

00:07:33.820 or does he obey China and send the Hong Kong democracy protesters back to China, and perhaps

00:07:40.120 back to prison or even their deaths? You know, there's a Chinese professor who's taught at the

00:07:45.380 University of Alberta and then the University of British Columbia. Wenrang Jiang is his name.

00:07:49.000 His specialty is Canada-China relations, but he really is a sort of unofficial spokesman for

00:07:53.660 China in Canada. I'm not saying he's disloyal to Canada. I've interviewed him before. I've

00:07:57.660 debated him before. He's very smart, very pragmatic. I'm just saying, if he says Beijing has a certain

00:08:03.120 opinion, you can take it to the bank that they really do. Here's what he told the Globe and

00:08:07.380 Mail. Wenren Jiang, an adjunct professor of the University of British Columbia School of Public Policy

00:08:12.420 and Global Affairs, said Canada should proceed cautiously. If Ottawa officially encourages and

00:08:18.540 offers political asylum to protesters in Hong Kong, even if some of them clearly broke the law by being

00:08:23.640 violent, Beijing is likely to interpret such a move as interfering in Chinese domestic affairs,

00:08:29.120 leading to adding more chill to an already cold bilateral relationship.

00:08:33.240 I'm not sure what adding more chill means. Is China going to, what, take another two Canadian 0.77

00:08:40.300 citizens hostage on top of Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig? Are Chinese nationals going to 0.96

00:08:47.520 hoover up more of our medical supplies during the pandemic? I don't know. Will they infect and kill

00:08:52.580 thousands of Canadians with some virus from Wuhan? I'm not sure what China could do to us that they 0.96

00:08:57.400 haven't already done to us, but it's clear they'd be really, really mad if we, you know, gave

00:09:03.000 refuge to people fleeing for their lives. Hey, how do you think Trudeau is going to come down on this

00:09:08.220 one? Stand up for Hong Kong civil rights in general and the lives of these 46 people in particular?

00:09:15.000 Or obey China, submit to China, do what China wants them to do? Yeah, it's really not much of a contest.

00:09:20.200 What a shame, though. In Hong Kong, not only do you have people who speak English,

00:09:25.080 hundreds of years of British legal and cultural traditions, the rule of law, property rights,

00:09:29.580 that sort of thing. And a free market economy with an entrepreneurial spirit. I mean, talk about

00:09:34.960 a great immigrant, right? I mean, wow, they'd fit in great. They do so well. But in these 46 people,

00:09:41.260 presumably, that's sort of the problem. You have a deep love for democracy and freedom. Yeah,

00:09:45.500 they're actually the precise kind of people Trudeau wants to replace in Canada with his preferred

00:09:50.020 type of refugee, the Omar Khadars of the world. So that was one story out of Ottawa. And here's another. 0.98

00:09:56.100 It was issued from Geneva, Switzerland, actually. That's a funny place to learn about Canadian news.

00:10:01.260 But here it is from Dr. Tedros, who is about as much as a medical doctor as I am. He's actually

00:10:06.520 the first non-medical doctor to run the World Health Organization. Normally, they have doctors

00:10:11.360 running. He has other uses, though, besides medicine. He obeys China, the country that installed 0.99

00:10:17.220 him as the leader of the World Health Organization. Here's his tweet.

00:10:20.900 Thank you, Justin Trudeau, prime minister, for the support to the WHO during the United Against

00:10:26.120 Coronavirus pledging event and for the contribution of 551 million euros plus to the global COVID-19

00:10:37.740 response. Together. Oh, my God. 551 million euros. You know what a euro, that's the currency of the

00:10:45.000 European Union. It's worth more than a dollar. I did the currency exchange. That's 838 million

00:10:52.380 Canadian dollars. It's almost a billion dollars to the UN's corrupt China-controlled WHO. Just

00:11:00.040 announced on Twitter. You bet. That's how Trudeau rolls. Just like how Trudeau blurted out that he

00:11:04.820 was giving 50 million dollars to some scheme that a U.S. late-night comedian Trevor Noah came up with.

00:11:10.420 50 million. Just to get a cool retweet from some B-list celebrity. That's how Trudeau does it with

00:11:15.700 your money. We'll multiply that amount by almost 20. Here's how Trudeau crowed about it online.

00:11:21.400 When a storm comes, people tend to want to hunker down with their friends, with their families,

00:11:26.420 and wait till it blows over. But we cannot isolate ourselves. We cannot hope that everyone else does

00:11:32.480 well while we take care of ourselves. We need to take care of ourselves and take care of the rest of the

00:11:38.520 world as well. Take care of ourselves by taking care of the rest of the world.

00:11:43.340 What? The safety of our own people depends on how people in other countries are? Yeah, no, no. Not if

00:11:49.220 we have borders. Then we keep people with the virus out. It's what every country in the world is doing

00:11:55.220 that's being successful, especially Taiwan. When he says we can't isolate ourselves, well, actually,

00:12:01.440 that's what exactly happened. We're all in isolation now. We're all really under some form of house

00:12:07.080 arrest precisely because he and his fools wouldn't close the borders to the virus. We've been forced 0.99

00:12:13.360 into isolation. He just kept the flights coming to Canada. And that one line he said that we can't

00:12:20.880 hunker down and take care of ourselves only. We have to take care of the rest of the world first.

00:12:25.180 What? With $838 million. Where's that money coming from? Is that borrowed from China again?

00:12:31.960 We've got 2 million Canadians thrown out of work. Agriculture, the travel and tourism industry,

00:12:37.560 every restaurant, bar, theater, sports facility, most schools, most retail companies. And Trudeau thinks

00:12:43.100 we need to give money to other people in other countries now of all time. Stop being so selfish,

00:12:50.800 he says, really. But he doesn't mean himself. He's been secretly renovating that country cottage that

00:12:57.320 taxpayers provide him, $8.6 million in renovations. How do you spend that much on a lake house? Well,

00:13:04.700 money's no object when it's taxpayers' money and it's Trudeau, who personally benefits. Don't you worry,

00:13:09.820 none of that $8.6 million will be sent overseas. Just your money will be. That fawning style of his,

00:13:16.660 that childishness, that generosity with other people's money. Say, do you ever hear that tone

00:13:21.960 of voice he used there when he's talking to Canadians like unemployed oil and gas workers

00:13:27.540 or farmers or people from Alberta or Saskatchewan or serving military or veterans? No. Just when he's

00:13:35.400 playing to his base, the Canadian media party and foreign globalists. And that's all he cares about.

00:13:41.780 I think he hates his job as prime minister, actually. I know it's hard to believe that at first,

00:13:47.100 but think about it. For nearly two months, he's been hiding out in his house. He's got that vacation

00:13:51.820 beard. He's living apart from his estranged wife who's at the cottage. Trudeau, I don't know,

00:13:57.520 works an hour a day, maybe. He's disconnected from reality. He only shows any emotion and energy

00:14:03.640 when he's giving away your money to foreign countries. That's the connection with the Hong Kong

00:14:08.700 refugees story, too. Trudeau wants that temporary seat on the United Nations Security Council that's

00:14:14.540 coming up for a vote. He needs China's vote to get on that and the votes that China controls. That's why 0.80

00:14:21.240 Trudeau won't approve those Hong Kong refugees. That's why Trudeau just gave nearly a billion 1.00

00:14:26.000 dollars to the corrupt, lying, China-controlled WHO. And that's his exit plan, I think. 0.82

00:14:33.280 Trudeau checked out as our prime minister in October when he lost his majority government in the last

00:14:38.240 election. Even before that, when the blackface revelation stunned him on top of the Jody Wilson 0.95

00:14:43.860 Raybould judicial interference matter, Trudeau just stopped having fun because people stopped looking

00:14:49.140 up to him. They stopped believing him. Young people, minorities, women, aboriginal people,

00:14:53.800 they realized he was a fake. He's a weird recluse now, dyeing his own hair in different colors,

00:15:00.860 not cutting his nails. This is so weird. Check out the... Cut your fingernails, you weirdo.

00:15:07.980 What is that? I think he wants out, but he wants up. He wants all the travel and the perks 0.97

00:15:14.660 without any of the responsibilities. He doesn't want to do the hard stuff. He wants fawning hordes

00:15:20.000 of people, huge expense accounts, lots of young, pretty interns, but no pesky elections and work. 0.99

00:15:26.500 That's why he loves the UN. You heard it here first. Justin Trudeau will do anything, give anything,

00:15:32.560 to get Canada a United Nations Security Council seat, and then that's his exit plan, to maneuver to get

00:15:40.900 himself as the next Secretary General of the UN, as a pro-China, anti-America, pro-Soros open borders

00:15:51.020 mascot for the world. He's said as much. He says he doesn't believe in borders or even in Canada,

00:15:58.040 really. He's even got the t-shirt. If you know that about Trudeau, if you believe that he wants out,

00:16:05.000 that he wants to run the UN, that he wants to get away from countries and borders, then all of a sudden

00:16:09.560 a lot more things about his anti-Canadian decisions start to make sense. Stay with us for more.

00:16:28.040 We were on this wing for about 15, we were here for about 15 or 20 minutes. She was just on this

00:16:37.320 wing. We weren't hurting anyone. We were here by ourselves. The police showed up. Two officers

00:16:43.420 approached us and told us that we were breaking. And they, and they put handcuffs on my mom. I told

00:16:49.720 them that we weren't harming anyone, that we needed to get outside and get some normality and just get

00:16:54.420 some fresh air. We were talking for a little while, just like on human to human level, uh, explaining

00:16:59.120 like where I was coming from and all of this mental health, the lockdown, two months being inside with

00:17:04.840 my daughter with no support. They proceeded to call back up. The sergeant showed up here. Same thing.

00:17:10.580 I tried to discuss it with him. He didn't want to hear it. He grabbed my arm, uh, took my backpack off,

00:17:15.760 proceeded to put me in handcuffs, uh, separated me from my daughter. I was taken up to the police vehicle

00:17:21.980 where a cop did a body search on me and it was very thorough and invasive. From there,

00:17:27.940 they put me into the back of the cop car and I didn't even know where my daughter was at that time.

00:17:34.020 They went through all my things against my will. We were separated for about 20 minutes. He called

00:17:38.860 me an idiot and yelled in my face. They finally came back and, um, released me from the cop car, 0.99

00:17:44.980 took my handcuffs off and gave me an $880 ticket.

00:17:47.900 I am so angry watching that. I cannot tell you that as a mom and her five-year-old daughter

00:17:54.240 arrested, handcuffed, searched, separated from her daughter for 20 minutes,

00:18:00.060 arrested in front of her five-year-old daughter. Now, did she commit a crime? Is she a bank robber? 0.99

00:18:04.420 Is she a murderer? What did she do? She was on the swings with her daughter at an empty playground. 0.67

00:18:11.200 Joining us now via Skype from Edmonton is our friend Sheila Gunner-Reed, chief reporter,

00:18:16.780 to talk to you about the latest case for fightthefines.com. Sheila, I'm so mad when I see that.

00:18:23.080 Tell us about this young lady.

00:18:25.340 Well, that young lady is Bridget Carlson. She's a young mom in North Bay, Ontario.

00:18:30.780 And, you know, she tells a really quite harrowing tale. She went out to get some fresh air with her

00:18:38.640 daughter. Her daughter wanted to go on the swings. Bridget thought, what's the harm? Nobody else is

00:18:44.560 there. I'm not endangering anybody. And so she let her daughter go on the swings. Then the police showed

00:18:52.340 up. And it culminated in Bridget being handcuffed, stuffed in a car, verbally abused by the police. 1.00

00:19:04.020 They called her names. And her belongings were searched. She was searched. She told me under her

00:19:10.480 clothes, separated from her daughter for 20 minutes. That's, I mean, I'm a mom of kids. My kids would be

00:19:18.100 absolutely in hysterics just beside themselves. If they saw that happen to me, all of this happened

00:19:24.180 in front of her five-year-old. And eventually the police took the cuffs off her, took her out of

00:19:30.400 the cop car and gave her an $880 fine. And Bridget's not a rich lady. I mean, who is during the coronavirus

00:19:37.840 lockdown? I mean, this is a fine that would absolutely devastate her family. The first time I

00:19:45.400 talked to Bridget, she broke down in tears, talking about the effect that this has had on her and her

00:19:54.960 child. She said her daughter said to her, am I going to get, am I going to need a new mommy if the police

00:20:01.580 come back to get you? Bridget said she, you know, woke up just sweating. She said it's been very traumatic

00:20:09.620 for her. And her only crime was pushing her daughter on the swings. Of course, that's not a 1.00

00:20:15.160 crime. It's at most a public health ticket. And I know that you spoke to the Top Gun lawyer we've

00:20:23.020 retained to help all of these cases of fight the fines. Sam Goldstein, who's a senior criminal lawyer

00:20:29.140 in Toronto, is also a bencher of the Law Society. I mentioned that because that's one of the senior

00:20:33.540 lawyers in Ontario that run the whole profession. So he's no slouch. And what was interesting,

00:20:40.420 and I encourage our viewers to watch the whole video on fightthefines.com, is Sam made the good

00:20:45.580 point. You can be searched incidental to an arrest, but your stuff being searched, your body being

00:20:54.680 searched, you're thrown into the back of a car for a ticket? Yeah. For a ticket? And Sam

00:21:02.060 was musing out loud, and I don't know the answer to his legal research on this. Like, if you get a

00:21:07.420 parking ticket, they can't strip search you, or not strip search, they can't search you under your

00:21:13.560 clothes, separate you from your daughter. It's a ticket. It's not a crime. It's not a crime. Now,

00:21:19.900 I'm not an expert in criminal law, so we rely on Sam Goldstein, but I feel so good that, and we sent

00:21:26.980 our cameraman all the way up to North Bay there to meet this young, no one else would help her,

00:21:32.240 no one else would help her. Who would help her? Where are the civil liberties associations who 0.99

00:21:36.920 would normally rage against a young woman, a single mom, no less, being thrown in the back of a cop

00:21:42.400 car with cuffs? No one is there. I feel so good about this, Sheila, that we're helping this young

00:21:48.160 mom, and we're helping, I think we have about 11 or 12 or 13 cases like this. We're processing them,

00:21:54.440 so we've only publicized about half of them so far. I feel great about helping this mom. I feel like it's

00:22:00.420 really doing a public duty that no one else will do. I'm so glad you're taking it in particular

00:22:06.480 because you can relate mom to mom. She had nowhere else to turn. No one is there to help her. She's

00:22:14.840 a single mom. She's really on her own. As you hear in her interview there, she said she's been

00:22:20.140 basically locked in the house for two months with her daughter. This was, you know, their chance to get

00:22:24.960 out and have a little fresh air. And the first time out getting a little fresh air, she ends up

00:22:30.260 in handcuffs. I mean, this is really, I think, going to change people who are on the fence about

00:22:37.980 these fines. I think hearing what happened to Bridget could really signal a bit of a sea change

00:22:48.040 in people's attitudes about police fining people because this is just so absolutely outrageous.

00:22:55.300 And I did have a couple of conversations with Sam. I talked to him on the phone before I

00:22:59.740 jumped on Skype with him. And he did explain to me that, yeah, this is a ticketable offense. This

00:23:05.720 isn't something that they really can be arresting you for, sticking you in cuffs. And why stick her in

00:23:13.040 cuffs? I mean, if she was acting out, if she's acting belligerent, if there's a crowd of people 0.93

00:23:18.280 around and she's acting crazy, but she wasn't. It was just her and her daughter. Who was she

00:23:24.800 endangering? Yeah. You know, we've talked about this on another show, is that under our constitution,

00:23:31.440 our charge, even our basic freedoms can be infringed in certain cases. The seminal court case is called

00:23:39.660 Oaks. And so we call it the Oaks test. And I'm just going to, without getting too heavy duty into

00:23:46.100 the law, is the infringement the least possible infringement on our freedom? Is it rationally

00:23:54.880 connected to solving some public harm? And is it proportionate to the harm that's being averted? Those

00:24:02.800 are several elements of the Oaks test. So let's go through that. Is handcuffing a mom, separating 0.98

00:24:10.300 her from her daughter, throwing in the back of the cop car, searching out her clothes, is that the

00:24:14.780 least possible infringement that could have been done here? No, of course not. Is it rationally

00:24:20.060 connected? No, you're not going to catch the virus by being alone with your daughter on inanimate

00:24:26.220 equipment where there's no one around for a mile. And finally, is it proportionate to the harm?

00:24:32.660 Well, I should tell you, not a single teenager. I mean, this is not a five-year-old teenager. She's 0.78

00:24:39.000 five. Thank God the virus doesn't touch kids. Like it's just, there's nothing medically sound about

00:24:46.820 this. There's nothing sound in terms of police work about this. There was nothing sound in terms

00:24:51.700 of crime control, crowd control. This was just pure government bullying. And I tell you, Sheila,

00:24:58.780 I grew up, my family, my house, when I was a kid, we had so much respect for police. We were such a

00:25:05.000 pro-police household. It was drummed into us. The police are the good guys. Always, if you're in

00:25:09.560 danger, go to a cop. Always look to the cops, cops, cops. You would think we were a cop family. But

00:25:15.620 watching the police abuse these past weeks in these cases, it is enough to turn a public against the

00:25:23.200 police. And that is a grave danger here. Yeah, I agree with that. I mean, I'm pro-police. I say it

00:25:32.800 all the time. I love cops, hate their bosses. I've got police in my own family. But these municipal

00:25:40.340 regulations and the authoritarian cops enforcing them are not doing their fellow members any favors

00:25:48.920 because it will change the public's attitude about police. And I think that then becomes

00:25:55.240 very dangerous. Every time you mention that Bridget was searched under her clothes in front of her

00:26:02.500 child, my face gets hot with anger. I can't think of much worse of a violation of a mom in front of

00:26:09.800 her daughter. And for these cops to do that because she violated some dumb rule and was in an empty park, 0.96

00:26:18.000 it's outrageous. And I'm, I'm glad that we're helping Bridget. I can't think of someone more 0.91

00:26:24.380 deserving of the help. And it really, we say we're helping, but it's our people at home who are

00:26:30.080 pitching in to help fund the legal battle for her through fightthefines.com. Yeah, that's right. I

00:26:36.220 mean, I've thought about and I've used occasional pro bono lawyers in my life. And my view is pro bono

00:26:42.220 lawyers, that means working for free as sort of a, instead of donating cash to charity, they donate their

00:26:46.720 time. You know, you got to like a lawyer who's willing to do that. But usually such a lawyer is

00:26:51.540 not an expert in the particular field and they still have to earn a living. So they do their pro

00:26:56.700 bono work last. We are not hiring Sam Goldstein pro bono. We're hiring him as we're paying him.

00:27:05.240 And he's being reasonable with his fees, as far as I can tell. But the reason we're doing that is we

00:27:11.120 want the best guy. And we want him to give his attention to this because we want to win. And I

00:27:17.960 think we're going to win for Bridget Carlson and all the other cases we've taken. And what's so

00:27:25.620 interesting, we had a case of a teenage skateboarder. There was no signage on the park.

00:27:31.300 There was a case of a guy literally sitting on a bench in a park in Toronto. He went to leave the

00:27:37.560 park. He was off the park. He was, all these guys are people who you wouldn't normally say,

00:27:42.580 well, that's a rebel supporter. Some of our guys are like that's that senior who got ticketed for

00:27:47.500 taking his dog out for a pee. But these other, I would call them working class. I would say they're 1.00

00:27:52.480 probably not that political. If they were, they'd probably go with the conventional wisdom, maybe

00:27:56.400 even be a little bit liberal. These are the working class. And I would even say in some cases,

00:28:02.020 working poor. Where are the liberals? Where are the civil liberties lawyers on the left?

00:28:08.280 They are not there. And this isn't even a left wing, right wing thing. I'm just so proud we're

00:28:12.020 doing this. Sheila, I'm glad it was you on our team who reached out to this mum and your right to thank

00:28:18.740 our viewers who are the donors paying. I think we've got 11 or 12 cases. Maybe it was 13, but one of

00:28:24.920 them, she settled on her own. Another guy paid his ticket on his own before we could fight. So I think

00:28:30.340 we've got about a dozen cases. If folks want to learn more about those other cases or help

00:28:34.860 pay the legal bills, because we're getting lawyers in other cities now, too. We have a lawyer in

00:28:40.000 Calgary, a lawyer in Edmonton, a lawyer in Montreal, because he's got a lot of cases. If folks want to

00:28:45.440 help, go to fightthefines.com, because we are going to pay these lawyers for folks like this. Sheila, 1.00

00:28:52.560 give me your thoughts on this. And then I want to tell you a positive turn of events in New York City

00:28:58.140 with their police force. But give me your last thoughts on our project, our Fight the Fines

00:29:03.100 project. You know, I'm glad you pointed out that these people are just severely normal people. Some

00:29:09.460 of them are clearly not rebel supporters. And I'm proud to say that we are helping everybody that we

00:29:16.240 can help. We do a little bit of legwork before we take on a case. We don't have a values test

00:29:22.840 before we help people whose rights have been violated. And I think that's important, because

00:29:28.920 when your rights have been violated by these authoritarian municipalities, someone has to

00:29:35.020 help you. And I guess that someone is us. That's a great point. That's a great point. Let me tell you,

00:29:40.580 let me end on some good news, because it makes me sad what police are doing. But one of the most

00:29:46.680 well-respected and impressive police forces in the world, I think people would generally

00:29:51.800 acknowledge, is the New York Police Department. It's one of the largest. It's got one of the

00:29:56.760 toughest jobs. It has tough neighborhoods, different ethnicities and languages. And of course, terrorism

00:30:05.740 is one of their major projects ever since 9-11 before that. I think the New York Police Department

00:30:12.000 is one of the most respected in the world. And I am so pleased. And you can see here statements made by

00:30:18.360 their police union that they simply will not engage in social distancing policing anymore. It's against

00:30:29.320 the interests of the community. It's against the interests of goodwill. And they're simply not

00:30:34.780 willing to be the bad guys doing what all too many Canadian police are. I'm impressed that

00:30:41.980 New York City cops have more common sense than their Canadian brethren who are doing this 0.96

00:30:48.340 nuttiness. And hopefully, that common sense will spread up here. What do you think?

00:30:54.140 I think it's great that the New York City police force is focusing on policing real crimes and not

00:31:01.340 these made-up social distancing crimes. They're in one of the largest cities in the world, one of the

00:31:07.360 busiest cities in the world. They have a big enough job as it is. And they seem to have a mayor that

00:31:13.840 doesn't respect the work they do. I'm glad to see that they're taking their oath to uphold the

00:31:20.080 Constitution of the United States seriously. Yeah. Sheila, I'm so proud of this case. And I'm so grateful

00:31:27.460 that it was you who reached out and you had just the right approach. I want to encourage all our viewers

00:31:32.800 to go to fightthefines.com to watch that video in full. And if you want to chip in 5, 10, 20, even 100

00:31:39.740 bucks, we're paying for anyone who comes forward with these outrageous cases. So I think we're doing

00:31:45.980 the right thing. Sheila, thanks, my friend. Keep up the fight. Thanks, I will, boss. All right, there you

00:31:50.640 have it, Sheila Gunn-Reed, our chief reporter. Joining us via Skype from northern Alberta. Stay with us.

00:31:55.100 More ahead. Hey, welcome back. On my monologue yesterday about Trudeau banning Rebel News from

00:32:08.380 his press conferences while declaring support for press freedom, Ronda writes,

00:32:12.680 Trudeau doesn't like to be asked the right questions. Yeah, oh, the softballs he takes,

00:32:17.740 it's embarrassing. I mean, he's not embarrassed. He likes softball questions. That's why he likes to

00:32:23.240 speak at schools and take questions from children. But you'd think some reporters would have some

00:32:27.540 self-respect. Prime Minister, are you sure you're not burning out from working too hard? Prime

00:32:32.980 Minister, when are you going to get tough with these bottles of hand sanitizer coming in that

00:32:37.620 aren't bilingual French or English? They're the ones who should be embarrassed. I mean, in a way, 1.00

00:32:42.300 Trudeau's got to be laughing in his head. Rene writes, that burnout question is incredible. Our

00:32:47.480 hardworking PM was way on vacation from late December until he was forced to come back halfway through the

00:32:52.340 rail blockades. Now he's been in his rabbit hole since mid-March, except for his Easter break. I

00:32:56.940 assume that he's no longer on the payroll and is living on the monthly CERB payment. You're right.

00:33:01.560 You know, I went back and I studied every single foreign trip that Trudeau has gone on since he

00:33:06.900 became prime minister. He's taken a lot of them. But after the election, as I said in my monologue today,

00:33:12.920 he just checked out. He went on a 17-day vacation in Costa Rica, briefly came back. When the virus

00:33:20.620 started to bite, he went on a nine-day junket to, I think it was Ethiopia and a few other countries.

00:33:27.540 And then he's been 40 days plus in self-isolation, which no one has prescribed or ordered for him.

00:33:33.880 No one else in cabinet is doing that. He's basically taken 60 out of the last 90 days off.

00:33:42.380 It's incredible. On my interview with Aaron Rosenberg about our campaign, LetUsReport.com,

00:33:49.020 Melanie writes, kick some butt, Rebelews, get some good questions out there and wake those sleepy 0.85

00:33:53.500 Canadians up. Well, we'll see how it works. I mean, it was a long shot when we went to the Federal 0.99

00:33:59.100 Court of Canada last October, but we won that long shot and the court ordered the Debates Commission to

00:34:04.000 let us in. It'll be interesting to see if they do that with the Privy Council office that's controlling

00:34:08.560 those phone questions too. I promise I'll keep you posted on what happens, including what the

00:34:13.500 government says when they reply in, I guess, nine days. Well, that's our show for today. Until tomorrow,

00:34:19.580 on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night. Keep fighting for freedom.

00:34:38.560 kind of Westerniction.

00:34:41.820 For more information, tons of people stay included.

00:34:43.460 I will devant you at twists andию, to youka helps you.
