00:01:00.180 Oh, hey, good morning, good afternoon, everybody. Depending on which part of this beautiful country

00:01:13.460 that you're in, you're watching Rebel Roundup, our daily news and opinion show. It's a live stream,

00:01:18.340 so you'll get the news of the day unscripted as we see it. You'll get our honest opinions on things

00:01:24.740 that are happening in this country and around the world. I'm your regular host, Sheila Gunn-Reed,

00:01:29.620 and I'm joined by my co-host today, who is Alexa Lavoie, who happens to be, although from Quebec,

00:01:37.700 she's in the Toronto studio today. Alexa, how's it going? I'm good. An unregular guest. That's me.

00:01:44.720 No, no, no. It's normally just me and whoever can fit me in.

00:01:51.240 I try to escape sometime, you know, Quebec. I think it gave me a break.

00:01:57.340 I can't believe you escaped Quebec and end up in Toronto and you think that's a break.

00:02:02.240 I have a unique perspective out here in the West where I just look at, I don't know, the rest of the

00:02:08.280 country and wonder what the heck they're doing and why they vote the way that they do. But I

00:02:13.560 should tell everybody what we're doing today because it's a very busy show and we can't go

00:02:17.680 too long because the National Citizens Inquiry is in Edmonton today. And so as soon as the show is

00:02:25.100 done, that's where I'm headed to sit in on that, see the hearings. Maybe I'll cut some clips. We'll see

00:02:31.760 if there's any interesting testifiers before the inquiry that I can talk to you and let you know

00:02:38.980 about. So that's what I'm doing next. So that's why the show, normally it runs long. Hopefully it won't

00:02:44.620 go as long today, not because I want to deny you our opinions, but because I've got a really tight

00:02:50.540 timeline today for myself. So if you are watching us on Rumble, that's a great free speech platform.

00:02:57.720 We're so glad that you're there. They have supported Rebel News when everybody else made

00:03:02.660 their best efforts to silence and censor us. So on Rumble, you can support the work that we do out

00:03:07.760 of the goodness of your heart and like what Justin Trudeau makes you do with the mainstream media

00:03:11.160 by leaving us their paid chat. It's called a Rumble rant. If it's over the $5 US cutoff,

00:03:15.940 we are making it mandatory. We will read it on air, do our best to respond if it's under the $5 US cutoff.

00:03:21.660 Well, we so appreciate you, but I cannot make any promises that I will get to your comment. I will

00:03:27.700 however, do my best. The same rules apply on YouTube. We are newly re-monetized over there.

00:03:34.600 I'm not optimistic that that's going to last very long because YouTube is pretty particular about

00:03:41.000 the things that you can say over there, including some things that are 100% completely truthful.

00:03:46.620 But on YouTube, you can leave us a super chat or if you're watching afterwards, you can leave a paid

00:03:55.560 chat that's called a super thanks. So those are the rules. Get chatting. If you'd like to have your

00:04:02.620 say, leave us a paid chat and we'll do our best to address it on air. Now let's get into, what are we

00:04:08.900 on? Day four of tariff mania, I think is what it is. Last night, Alberta's government responded to the

00:04:15.720 tariffs. Daniel Smith, who had sort of forged another way, has, it appears to be somewhat

00:04:25.060 falling in line behind Doug Ford, of all people, on certain issues. I'm so sick of using booze as

00:04:30.720 some sort of virtue signaling, but we'll get to that in a second. Trudeau says, in the midst of this,

00:04:39.360 I think we should give some context. In the midst of all of this, the liberals, and what I find so

00:04:46.120 distasteful about, regardless of what Trump is doing to Canada or promising to do to Canada, in the

00:04:53.560 middle of this, parliament should be working. This is an, if you listen to the left, and I think

00:05:00.040 everybody, this is a national crisis right now. Our economy is set to be absolutely crushed,

00:05:06.300 but parliament has been prorogued. Why? Because we need to give the liberals time to increase their

00:05:13.420 electoral chances against the conservatives by replacing their deeply unpopular leader,

00:05:20.140 Justin Trudeau. So just be aware, if you are considering, or if somebody you know is considering

00:05:25.060 casting a vote for a rebranded liberal party under Mark Carney, just know that they were willing to

00:05:33.440 nuke, best estimates, a million Canadian jobs to hang on to power. And if that person in your

00:05:41.180 family thinks they should be rewarded for that, potentially they need their head examined. But

00:05:46.680 Trudeau, he's emotional, which is not unusual for him. But he says he vows not to be a caretaker

00:05:54.840 prime minister. And he gets emotional at one of his last events. Now, I, here's why I think he's

00:06:01.240 getting emotional is because he doesn't get to go on the long goodbye tour anymore. Like what,

00:06:07.700 what, where's he been the last month while the Trump tariffs, uh, have been delayed while we're

00:06:15.360 supposed to be doing something to fix the issues the Americans have with us. Instead, he's been on

00:06:20.760 some sort of international farewell tour. Literally throwing our money everywhere that he can. If it's

00:06:30.440 not for crane, it was for other kind of organization traveling on taxpayer dimes. And he just

00:06:41.720 held even a little bit everywhere. I just don't understand that. How a lame dog prime minister can

00:06:49.660 continue to do those outrageous announcements. Yeah. I mean, last week he was appointing 0.99

00:06:55.280 parliamentary secretaries, uh, which led me to believe that the liberals have a plan to delay

00:07:03.640 the next election. Like why would you be appointing parliamentary secretaries for a government that is

00:07:08.960 if the NDP do what they're supposed to do? And I don't think that they're gonna, uh, and we'll get

00:07:14.480 to that in a little bit because I think we have Elizabeth May hinting at what I've been,

00:07:17.820 what I believe has gone on behind the scenes for a very long time. If he's appointing

00:07:21.660 parliamentary secretaries, they don't think they're going to election and they know something

00:07:25.440 we don't know. Um, and we've already heard Karina Gould, who's also running to replace 0.67

00:07:33.260 Justin Trudeau as a, like an, as an also ran, as they call them. She said, uh, this is an emergency.

00:07:38.960 We don't, we could delay the election as much as any, a year after, um, the October mandatory

00:07:46.920 action call, um, because we're in an emergency. And if it's, you know, again, if we're in such

00:07:52.440 an emergency, why aren't you people working?

00:07:55.800 The thing is this, they keep saying that it's an emergency, but tariff, if they are there,

00:08:02.900 they are going to stay and they are going to be there for a long time. We already saw this during

00:08:11.240 the great depression. I don't know if you remember, we, I wasn't born, obviously, but the story is

00:08:20.040 repeating itself. And I think, and I was pretty surprised to see the PQ leader, uh, that is the

00:08:28.300 separatists in Quebec. That was the only one to keep a cold head and saying, we must not act on an

00:08:38.420 emergency. We should reflect on the consequences of our act. And he was also speaking about that the

00:08:47.640 counter tariff is not, it's not something that we should go ahead with. We should maybe look into

00:08:55.680 other options because, and I just interviewed recently an economist and it's exactly what he

00:09:04.280 was saying. Counter tariff will only hurt Canadians. And what he was explaining is just going full,

00:09:13.420 um, free trade, open the free trade, remove the barrier, remove all the regulation that actually,

00:09:21.680 uh, stopped us to have a better competitivity. And yeah, I'm, I was really surprised that the

00:09:30.620 separatists was actually the only one who actually, uh, had another kind of narrative about it.

00:09:38.240 Uh, we've got, uh, this clip. Thanks for finding this Olivia and Efron behind the scenes. Elizabeth May,

00:09:44.680 leader of the fringe, uh, green party, an absolute lunatic. Uh, she is a crazy lady. Um, 1.00

00:09:54.360 I don't know why she is any like remotely relevant in this country, except insofar as she serves as

00:10:03.980 what's called the stalking horse for the liberals. Um, and she's just crazy enough to actually say what 1.00

00:10:10.620 they're doing behind the scenes. And I think she is right here. She confirms our discussions with the

00:10:15.260 liberals and the NDPs to join forces to prevent a single party from forming a majority. Um, so this

00:10:22.860 is what I, what I have, when I saw those appointments of those parliamentary secretaries last week by

00:10:28.400 Justin Trudeau, I thought, ah, he knows something we don't. And, uh, once again, the NDP are just

00:10:35.780 going to lie to Canadians while continuing to prop up the liberals so that Canadians can't have the 0.85

00:10:42.620 election they want and they deserve. So let's show this clip from Elizabeth May. 0.88

00:10:46.800 We have been in conversation with different levels of insiders within the liberal party,

00:10:54.280 the new democratic party. We've talked to colleagues in parliament. What kind of interest would there be

00:10:59.520 in listening to the voices of Canadians, uh, like at the grassroots group that has sprung up of

00:11:06.840 cooperate for Canada who want to see party party, sit down and talk to each other about how we can

00:11:14.400 potentially cooperate across this country and be able to have that common resolve that survives an

00:11:22.360 election, be able to envision a parliament that functions well together, taking on the threats

00:11:30.160 that Canada faces. To do that, we wanted to make this press conference today, a public commitment to

00:11:38.600 be willing to talk to other parties, to talk about what it takes in a perverse first past the post voting

00:11:46.160 system, to remind Canadians that we don't elect a prime minister in this country. We elect a parliament.

00:11:54.080 There are currently five parties in the house of commons. And if we were to find a way to cooperate,

00:12:00.800 we could ensure at least that neither one of the big parties gets a false majority with a hundred percent of

00:12:07.680 the power with less than 50% of public support. There are many examples in past history of Canada,

00:12:15.280 but the main thing is we won't get cooperation if we don't even sit down to talk about it.

00:12:22.720 Okay. So, uh, she's trying to rig the parliamentary system against the people right now. Um, and what a 1.00

00:12:30.400 despicable thing because Canadians want change. Give us the opportunity to have our say. And it said, 1.00

00:12:39.600 she's saying, um, when you do get your say, we're going to make sure we collude to make sure that the

00:12:44.320 outcome is what we want. And she talks about this, uh, little group called cooperate for Canada.

00:12:50.800 Um, if I had to guess, this, uh, is just a rebrand of what was, what happened to Stephen Harper.

00:13:00.080 There was a, uh, a thing like this, it was called vote together. And you could, if you were on the

00:13:05.440 progressive side and you didn't actually care about your values, you just wanted to keep the conservatives

00:13:10.480 out, which is what I feel like this is, you know, like if you, if, if you felt like you had to vote

00:13:16.880 with your heart, you would vote for the candidate that represented you instead, they are strategically

00:13:21.440 voting. And so cooperate for Canada, you can search by your writing. They just did it for the Ontario

00:13:27.600 election. Um, didn't work all that well for them, but you could go and see, okay, who's going to win

00:13:33.760 there? Is it the liberal or the NDP candidate? Um, who do we throw our support behind who, if we vote

00:13:41.840 together, cooperate, uh, to block the conservative party. So you can shift, you can look in your

00:13:48.400 writing and see, okay, so we, should we shift all the votes for the NDP or should we shift all the

00:13:52.720 votes towards the liberals, which shows you that they are just, you know, like if that's the case,

00:13:57.040 then one of those parties shouldn't exist. Right. Because they just serve as an arm of the other

00:14:01.680 party. But, uh, they did this to Stephen Harper to some success. Obviously it's part and parcel of

00:14:07.280 why we have Stephen or why we have Justin Trudeau right now. They did this in key ridings to coalesce,

00:14:14.800 I think is the right word, the progressive vote against the conservatives. Uh, and then it was

00:14:19.360 called vote together. Now it's called cooperate for Canada. This is, um, it's not exactly the same

00:14:25.600 thing, but that remembers me a little bit how the system in France is working. So after the first round,

00:14:34.480 uh, at the second round, people were able to counter the party that has the biggest chance to win,

00:14:44.960 that at that time was the Rassemblement National. But the leftists in the

00:14:50.320 the far left were able to counter it because they knew what was the result at the first turn.

00:14:59.200 And that make me remember how strategic it is. And it's not really representing the real

00:15:07.600 vote behind. It's just strategic voting. Yeah. It's not, it's not that anybody is actually

00:15:14.560 liberal or NDP or green anymore. They're just anti conservative and they don't even know why

00:15:21.360 they cannot articulate it. Um, because if they think this country is working with those people in

00:15:26.800 charge, what fantasy land are they living in? Uh, taxes are up. Poverty is up. Cost of housing is up.

00:15:35.120 Cost of food is up. Wait times are up in hospitals. Everything is bad. Crime is up. Drugs are up.

00:15:42.560 Um, they've had a decade to make some improvement somewhere. We've seen actual negative outcomes on

00:15:52.240 all of those fronts. And you know what, why do we want to do that for countering the conservative?

00:15:58.160 Because what we are seeing right now, it's that conservative is the party that is reasoning the

00:16:05.840 most in Canada. And it's why we are seeing now the candidate for the liberal party taking back

00:16:14.160 everything that what the conservatives have been saying for a while.

00:16:18.320 Right. All of a sudden, it's not racist to reconsider your immigration targets. All of a sudden,

00:16:22.800 you're not a climate, uh, murderer if you want to stop the carbon tax. So, um, it,

00:16:30.000 they don't actually believe in anything. They only believe in power. They don't care what it

00:16:35.200 does to you. And you're seeing this right now with the tariff war that they have just allowed to just

00:16:41.280 go on while they run a leadership race. They don't care about, and they don't care about you. They

00:16:46.960 only care about hanging on to power. They don't even have any values. I don't even think they're

00:16:51.200 liberals or progressives. They just want power at all costs, which is the last kind of person you want

00:16:57.120 in parliament. Uh, we've got some breaking news right now. Uh, I know my brother-in-law

00:17:01.440 text me about this about twice a week. Sheila, did you hear anything about the justice center's

00:17:05.360 challenge of the prorogation of parliament? Um, we just heard right now. Now we don't have,

00:17:11.600 I don't think we have a judgment yet, but the federal court, this is from the justice center,

00:17:17.440 and this is from 16 minutes ago. Um, and Efron or Olivia, if something changes here,

00:17:23.440 please let me know. Um, breaking news today, the federal court will issue a decision on the

00:17:28.720 constitutional challenge to the prime minister's advice to prorogue parliament. Stay tuned for a

00:17:32.720 link to the decision and our analysis of it. So the only time that they could find that this ever

00:17:40.400 happened was in the UK. And it was during the, uh, the, they had to, uh, it had to do with Brexit

00:17:47.120 and parliament was prorogued and they needed to deal with Brexit and the time was running out.

00:17:53.440 And the court said, uh, this is an existential crisis and you guys need to get back to work.

00:18:01.280 And, uh, I would argue that what we're seeing right now is an existential crisis and these people have

00:18:08.020 to get back to work. And if they had, if they felt any responsibility to Canadians or Canada,

00:18:12.600 they would have done that on their own. And the fact that somebody had to bring a court challenge

00:18:16.360 to try to get them to do it speaks to the quality of people we have running this country.

00:18:21.880 And proroguing the parliament speaks how our leader that is in place right now is incompetent.

00:18:30.520 Yes, completely, completely. I mean, and Mark Carney, meet the new boss, same as the old boss. I mean,

00:18:36.440 he's been the Trudeau whisperer for at least the last five years. He was in there like a dirty shirt

00:18:42.840 advising everybody during the public order emergency, uh, not the commission, but the call

00:18:49.400 of the public order emergency using the emergencies act to freeze bank accounts and, and take away people's

00:18:55.240 civil liberties. Uh, so, uh, you're just going to get a more boring version of Justin Trudeau.

00:19:01.800 Uh, and the only thing Justin Trudeau ever offered me was how amusing I found his stupidity. 1.00

00:19:08.280 Um, and this guy will just be boring. Um, we, we've got a video. Prime Minister Trudeau tells 1.00

00:19:13.880 reporters that he reiterated to President Trump yesterday. Oh, good news. They finally talked,

00:19:18.200 uh, that Canada's border is secure and less than 1% of fentanyl enters the U S through Canada.

00:19:23.800 Uh, how much, how much fentanyl should the Americans tolerate? I guess is the question.

00:19:29.800 Uh, let's watch this clip. I want to address what I know is top of mind for all Canadians.

00:19:37.400 Yesterday I spoke with president Trump and I reiterated the facts. Our border is secure

00:19:45.000 and less than 1% of the illegal fentanyl entering the United States comes from Canada.

00:19:51.720 Even so we took action with our 1.3 billion dollar plan to further strengthen our border.

00:19:59.800 I also stressed that the tariffs the U S administration chose to impose will hurt American workers and

00:20:08.120 businesses. And that as our shared history has proven, we should work together instead to tackle

00:20:15.800 today's challenges rather than fighting one another. Canada's ministers, officials, and I will continue

00:20:24.440 to engage with our American counterparts. Our goal remains to get these tariffs, all tariffs removed.

00:20:32.520 In the meantime, we'll be taking action to support Canadians through the tough times ahead.

00:20:38.760 You can count on leadership right across the country, municipalities, provinces, and indeed your federal

00:20:47.160 government. But mostly you can continue to count on each other. Canadians have been there for each other,

00:20:56.760 for small businesses, for local producers, for friends. Canadians will pull together and continue to pull

00:21:04.920 together with deep, deep pride in country as all of us stand together to defend Canada.

00:21:13.720 Who is enough naive to actually believe in any word that he's saying?

00:21:19.240 Toronto.

00:21:19.880 Since he's in power, the border is just broken. Not just for illegal immigration, for drugs, for weapons,

00:21:33.480 for guns, for any kind of product that's been just dealing both sides of the border. It's because of him. He

00:21:47.800 actually removed the Mexican visa knowing and being brief that we might end up with cartel and we have cartel

00:21:59.400 at our border. Not only that, this guy's lying through his teeth. Okay, so they announced the 1.3

00:22:07.480 billion dollar increase in border security, which is actually not all that much money in the grand

00:22:12.760 scheme of things. Back in December. We're in March now and guess what? Prorogation means all

00:22:20.200 legislative activity is suspended until March 24th. That includes the proposed new spending like the

00:22:26.760 1.3 billion dollars in the federal government's border security plan. So he can talk about his

00:22:33.560 border security, but he also put that on the shelf so that they could get Mark Carney in place. So all of

00:22:39.880 this, three months now, three full months, none of that money has been spent. Nothing has happened with

00:22:47.960 this plan because he prorogued parliament to save his party. He burned down the country to warm his party

00:22:56.680 electoral chances. Think about how despicable that is. I cannot believe my fellow Canadians would even 1.00

00:23:04.360 consider casting a vote for these absolute power mad lunatics. Like they have destroyed our country. 0.99

00:23:12.600 They have destroyed our relationship with the Americans. They are lying to you through their teeth. 0.99

00:23:19.480 I can't believe Canadians would reward that. I don't want to believe I live in a country where Canadians would

00:23:24.440 reward that. And for the Canadians who say, oh, but it will be replaced by Mark Carney. It's the same

00:23:30.920 cabinet behind Mark Carney. So it's the same, same new face. Freeland is going to be his finance minister.

00:23:38.760 We know that. We know that. Like nothing has changed. Nothing, nothing has changed. Nothing will change.

00:23:45.400 Um, by the way, drugs aren't a problem. According to Justin Trudeau, just 1%. Here's this morning. Uh,

00:23:52.520 if you do a scan of the news outside of, uh, the national level, you'll find stuff like this.

00:23:59.400 Cops accidentally found $200,000 worth of meth pills just in the bushes in New Brunswick.

00:24:07.000 Uh, they were found during an unrelated search, uh, for something else. They just found all these pills in

00:24:16.760 the bush. So again, just 1%. How do we get that number when we, we have cops just stumbling across

00:24:23.560 pills in the bush? It's way higher. And the Americans know it because how can you put the

00:24:29.400 percentage on something that you didn't even caught? Exactly. Exactly. They're not searching

00:24:36.360 shipping containers. The gangs have infiltrated the port system. Um, the provinces are taking on

00:24:43.560 these duties on their own because the federal government has failed. Illegal migrants are 1.00

00:24:49.640 freezing on their way into Canada, as is the case in Southern Manitoba. So there's the problem. And

00:24:56.760 I'm tired of the government gaslighting us into saying, we've got it all under control. We know

00:25:02.920 it's not under control. We can tell in our communities that we are infested by drugs and

00:25:07.880 social decay. And if Trump's got a problem with fentanyl, by the way, he should be speaking directly

00:25:14.120 to David Eby. I don't know why Alberta has to pay for the things that David Eby is doing. David Eby 0.97

00:25:19.640 is giving out fentanyl, giving out safe supply. That safe supply is ending up in Alberta, killing our

00:25:25.720 people. No doubt it's ending up on the streets of Seattle, killing people there too. Uh,

00:25:32.040 David Eby's got a lot to answer for. And I think he is really, besides, uh, Justin Trudeau and, uh,

00:25:39.400 the nine years of running down, uh, Donald Trump as some sort of racist, fascist, anti-woman Nazi,

00:25:47.560 um, David Eby should hold a lot of blame for what's happening in Canada right now. I mean, 0.91

00:25:54.280 that whole, that province seems to be infested with gangs. Every time you turn around, they're

00:25:59.080 busting a super lab there. Like this is a thing. If Mexico got a new deal, a new agreement, uh,

00:26:09.560 their tariff is left. Uh, and this is until, uh, April 2nd. Yes. Why then Canada cannot have?

00:26:18.760 Oh, I'll tell you why. He says it right in this. If you read between the lines, sorry to cut you off,

00:26:23.560 Alexa. He said, uh, I have agreed that Mexico will not be required to pay tariffs on anything

00:26:29.000 that falls under the USMCA agreement. This agreement is until April 2nd. I did this as an accommodation.

00:26:36.200 Here's where we get why this is why Canada is not getting it out of respect for president

00:26:41.240 Scheinbaum. Our relationship has been a very good one and we are working hard together on the border,

00:26:47.560 both in terms of stopping illegal aliens from entering the United States and likewise stopping

00:26:51.480 fentanyl. Thank you, president Scheinbaum for your hard work. He, he respects her. She has been willing

00:26:58.840 to work with him. She has not run her mouth about him for nine years and, uh, she can show proof of

00:27:07.080 work. We have a border czar. I forget his name. That tells you how, uh, much work he's been doing.

00:27:14.200 What work has he been doing? Even if he is working hard, he needs to show every Canadians,

00:27:20.600 but show the Americans too. We've got none of that. President Trump does not respect Justin Trudeau,

00:27:25.800 does not respect Freeland, does not respect Carney. And that's why we're not getting a car vote.

00:27:31.880 I remember when I said Daniel Smith is going to escape the worst of this because Trump likes her.

00:27:38.040 Uh, and that has remained true. Uh, Trump doesn't like Trudeau. That's what it comes down to. And here we are.

00:27:44.440 Yeah. But Canada is not transparent anyway for anything. Uh, same, like, I don't know if you remember, like,

00:27:54.920 but when they actually caught the alleged terrorist that was going to, to do a terrorist act in US,

00:28:08.840 if you were able to get the ends on the US release and the RCMP released, the US release has two pages

00:28:19.400 of information, RCMP half a page. Yeah. Yeah. It's true. That's completely true. Um, let's go on to

00:28:29.640 Donald Trump. I think properly assessing the truth here. Uh, this is, uh, I saw it as an ex post, but he

00:28:37.400 probably, well, it's Trump. He definitely put it on truth social, believe it or not,

00:28:41.640 despite the terrible job he's done for Canada. I think that Justin Trudeau is using the tariff

00:28:47.000 problem, which he largely caused in order to run a game for prime minister. So much fun to watch.

00:28:52.680 And you know what? I don't know if Justin Trudeau is going to run. Actually, I know he's not going to

00:28:56.840 run a game, but, uh, what's the difference when you elect Mark Carney? And I think it's true.

00:29:03.120 The, if you take out the fine details there and look at the macro issue, yes, the liberals are using

00:29:10.240 the tariff issue to hang on to power, uh, to make sure Mark Carney gets elected to be the prime

00:29:15.520 minister of this country, if, and when they ever allow us to vote. And that's because the liberals

00:29:22.080 cannot campaign against Pierre Polyev on their own record. So they have to campaign against Trump.

00:29:28.320 I wish Trump were more aware of how, just how much he's helping the liberals in all of this.

00:29:33.280 So, but how much certification that we have that Justin Trudeau would not have any influence

00:29:42.880 behind Mark Carney? Oh, for sure. I think, uh, uh, I, here's the thing. I don't think we need to know

00:29:52.160 if Justin Trudeau is influencing Mark Carney behind the scenes because Mark Carney was the guy influencing

00:29:57.120 Justin Trudeau and who influences Mark Carney, the United nations and the world economic forum.

00:30:03.040 So I guess they're just cutting out the middle man. They don't need the guy to whisper in Justin

00:30:08.800 Trudeau's ear. They'll just have the guy who did the whispering, do the talking this time.

00:30:13.920 Yeah, exactly. And unfortunately it's, uh, we know everything on Sunday. I think it's Sunday.

00:30:21.280 Yes, it is Sunday and it's mostly online. Uh, there, I guess it's in Ottawa somewhere. If it's

00:30:30.400 darn near impossible to find out where it is, if you look on the liberal party's website. And I think

00:30:35.440 there's a reason for that. And when you're alive like that, if you have any tip, reach out to us.

00:30:41.200 Yeah. Let us know. Uh, we've got a video from Trudeau who says his government is working every

00:30:48.080 day to get the U S tariffs dropped. Uh, no, Justin, you're not working. That's the problem

00:30:52.640 I have in all of this. You prorogued parliament. Nobody is working. Nobody.

00:30:56.400 Do you think they can be dropped? And then also when it comes to this announcement today,

00:31:00.800 how important is it to you that these bigger programs that you've designed stay in place after

00:31:04.880 you leave? Uh, first of all, our priority is to continue to work very, very hard every day

00:31:10.880 to get these tariffs to be dropped. Uh, there should be no tariffs between Canada and the United

00:31:16.160 States, not just because we have a free trade agreement that says there should be no tariffs

00:31:20.640 between us, but because it is good for the Canadian economy and the American economy. It is good for

00:31:26.320 Americans and Canadians for us to be working together on big things, particularly in an uncertain

00:31:32.560 world. So the goal is get these tariffs off. Now, the Americans are continuing to look at, uh,

00:31:39.200 different steps, including the early April, uh, marker of, uh, larger commercial and trade reflections,

00:31:46.800 not just with Canada, but with the world. Uh, and that is very much something that we are,

00:31:51.200 are working towards as well, but our focus is on ending this trade war. And until we do,

00:31:58.000 uh, we will continue to stay strong for Canadians and Canadians will continue to stay strong with each

00:32:04.000 other. He should reimburse his salary since he prorogged Parliament. Yeah. He says we're working

00:32:12.000 very hard except, and we're doing everything we can except actually going into work. They're not going

00:32:18.560 to work. Uh, again, this is the stuff that I can't even believe Canadians are falling for, but

00:32:23.760 I guess some of them are, um, they are falling for the fact that they think the liberals are working

00:32:30.400 hard on this. They are falling for the fact that the, the liberals say that they're working with the

00:32:35.360 Americans or not, they're being nothing but antagonistic. Um, and they're falling for the fact 1.00

00:32:40.320 that, uh, you know, that Canada is not a drug and gang problem. We definitely are. And don't get me

00:32:46.000 started on the exportation of terrorism into the Northern States. Um, what do you think of that?

00:32:53.680 The private, like the, the photographer of Justin Trudeau has to release picture of him while he wasn't

00:33:03.680 on the phone with the president, Donald Trump to really show that that was credible. Yeah. Yeah.

00:33:11.280 You just like, Justin, pick up the phone. We need to stage a photo. Um, we've got a video from

00:33:17.440 Justin Trudeau. What is this? Good to have you back. I didn't watch this. So we're getting my,

00:33:21.680 oh goodness. Barf. Um, now apparently again, back with the booze patriotism, I can't stand it so much.

00:33:31.200 So, uh, remember the, well, no, you're, you're younger than me. I'm old. Um, I was barely able to

00:33:39.280 drink when these, uh, commercials came out. I think I was, well, I was 21. So I guess I could

00:33:43.920 vote in, or I could drink in the United States, but, um, Joe Canada, he was that like, I am Canadian

00:33:51.040 for a Canadian beer, like Canadian beer. Um, he's back with an update to his, I am Canadian ranch.

00:33:58.880 And it was like this, it was a marketing thing for beer. Like it was whatever, but this is apparently

00:34:07.440 what, um, constitutes patriotism as far as, uh, the low information voters of this country are

00:34:14.240 concerned. Justin Trudeau is tweeting it now saying, it's good to have you back. So let's watch it.

00:34:19.840 Let me know in the comments, are you moved by the spirit of Canadianism when you watch

00:34:25.040 a beer marketing commercial?

00:34:26.880 Hey, I know it's in our nature to, uh, cut a guy some slack, give him the benefit of the doubt. Like

00:34:38.640 maybe he was confused or just joking or just maybe really needed a double double.

00:34:45.360 But this isn't that guy. These aren't those people. And those are not the Rockies. They make a lot of

00:34:52.480 mistakes. They mistake our modesty for meekness, our kindness for consent, our nation for another

00:34:59.920 star on their flag, and our love of a hot cheesy poutine with their love of a hot cheesy Putin.

00:35:07.760 They think they can bully us, threaten us, and push us around. But they do not know us.

00:35:13.120 That artificially drawn line they keep talking about, not artificial, and it's not on a map.

00:35:19.280 It's right here. This is the land that Terry ran. The land that Gord sang about.

00:35:25.840 This is the birthplace of peanut butter and ketchup chips and yoga pads.

00:35:32.320 It is the land of universal health care and the bench clearing for all of innovation

00:35:37.680 and optimism and getting her done. This is the land of the peacekeeper

00:35:43.280 and the show winning and handshake. Are we perfect? No. But we are not the 51st anything.

00:35:51.840 We are the first to unite in a crisis, the first to build bridges, not walls, and the first to stand on

00:35:58.720 guard for thee. My name is Jeff and we are Canadian.

00:36:05.840 Thank you. 0.98

00:36:12.400 That was pathetic. Very little in there about the West, by the way, except to point out that 0.98

00:36:17.840 that was the Matterhorn in that photo and not the Canadian Rockies.

00:36:24.400 I'm reliably informed by the hysterical lunatics in Ottawa that you cannot

00:36:31.040 politicize Terry Fox, right? Like you can't even involve him in anything that you do,

00:36:37.040 unless it's, of course, pride. And then you can put a rainbow flag on him. I guess that's acceptable. 0.56

00:36:42.240 But they politicized Terry Fox in there. They used universal health care, which would sooner kill 0.97

00:36:47.840 you than treat you these days. And also mentioned yoga pants as if the guy who founded Lululemon

00:36:56.880 isn't a conservative or something. He was the guy who put up the anti-NDP signs at the end of his

00:37:03.280 driveway during the BC elections. And by the way, Lululemon does brisk business in the United States.

00:37:11.680 Talk about co-opting our symbols for your own nonsense. And again, the Americans love Putin.

00:37:18.160 Putin will be brought to bear, by the way, by Trump. He invaded the Crimea under Obama. He started a war

00:37:27.440 with Ukraine under Biden. The only time he will be brought under control and the only time he behaved

00:37:34.000 himself in recent years in the last decade was when there was a Trump in office. If there will be peace

00:37:40.800 struck, it will be because Trump pushed for it and nobody else. So ridiculous. These people are 0.98

00:37:46.720 absolutely ridiculous. I could do something similar about the Liberal Party and I would point to their 1.00

00:37:51.680 love of China and Xi Jinping. Not just that. We can actually do this same video, but with everything that

00:38:04.960 is wrong in this country too, under the Liberals. You know what, Alexa, let's do that. We should.

00:38:10.880 Like seriously, when we beat up people in Ottawa, when we froze the bank account, when people die

00:38:17.920 waiting for having a treatment or people who are getting made because they cannot being treated properly,

00:38:26.000 our veterans who are underfunded and have a hard time to get any services, let's go. Let's do it.

00:38:33.920 You will see that the Liberals look like pretty bad if we are doing that same one of what happened in

00:38:42.800 the last 10 years under the Liberals. Yeah. I mean, the list would be endless. Our rant would be an

00:38:50.880 hour long. Fentanyl, gangs, homelessness, veterans who have to buy their own equipment when they're

00:38:59.920 deployed to Latvia. Veterans, active service members, veterans, they're getting made because

00:39:05.040 they can't get stairs in their house or at least stair lifts in their house. Grandmothers who are 1.00

00:39:12.240 being told it's their civic duty to accept made. The housing crisis, the immigration crisis, 0.98

00:39:21.840 taxation, carbon taxes, farmers who are selling their land or can't give it to their kids if

00:39:31.200 they own a corporation or if they've incorporated their farm because of the capital gains tax.

00:39:35.840 Our list could be a lot longer than we invented ketchup chips. Whoop-a-dee-doo.

00:39:43.680 If you want to be proud of your country, you just show how much natural resources we have and under-exploited.

00:39:53.040 Yes. Yes. Yeah. We can't get a pipeline built. We're being called names by our Prime Minister.

00:40:03.280 My problem is not that I don't love my country. My problem is I wish our politicians acted like they

00:40:11.440 loved and cherished this country and the people who live inside of it, but they don't. This could be

00:40:17.840 a beautiful place, a prosperous place. I mean, we have the world's third largest

00:40:24.160 oil and gas reserves. What are we doing with it? We can't even get a pipeline built. We could be like

00:40:30.320 Singapore. Instead, we can't even sell our natural resources to anybody but the Americans because of

00:40:37.840 the hold-up in Ottawa. We should do our own rant. I feel like I just did a little bit of one.

00:40:43.680 Anyway. I like a sentence that I heard recently. Passivity end up in captivity.

00:40:53.360 Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Arresting journalists, banning journalists, arresting peaceful protesters,

00:41:01.040 imprisoning them for 50 days, arresting pastors, throwing our members out of the military because

00:41:09.600 they didn't get an experimental drug. It's just crazy. And to say this country isn't broken,

00:41:17.040 it is broken. And my problem is with the people who broke it and who have no plan to fix it. They

00:41:23.600 shouldn't be given the opportunity to fix what they've done. By the way, Dan Albus, conservative

00:41:28.400 MP, one I really like, he's really good on gun rights.

00:41:31.280 Justin Trudeau, in 2015, in the summer of 2015, June 16, 2015, says,

00:41:40.960 Canadians know that Ottawa is broken. It's time for real change, to do things differently.

00:41:46.880 So Dan rightly points out, next time you hear a liberal partisan calling out critiques about what

00:41:51.840 is broken in this country and how to fix it, be mindful of who is the original Ottawa is broken 0.99

00:41:56.480 politician. And that same Prime Minister Trudeau, who actually already protests against prorogation

00:42:07.840 of the parliament, prorogues the parliament himself. Yeah, of course. Yeah, he did. He also,

00:42:14.160 I'm marching in the streets against prorogation. And then he does it to save his party.

00:42:20.960 Um, let's do a message from a sponsor to pay the bills around here. Then we'll hit a rebel news ad

00:42:32.320 break and we'll come back into what's left. Uh, so this message is from five G free. I want to talk 0.97

00:42:39.040 about the things that people are afraid to say out loud. I think that's the like whole theme of this

00:42:43.200 show mostly who's in control of America's nukes. Um, at the time, I'm sure it wasn't Biden, right?

00:42:52.320 Now it's Trump. But at the time we all should have been a little bit more prepared and scared.

00:42:56.880 Uh, meanwhile, we've got Russian ships off the coast of Florida and full blown

00:43:00.640 moors in Ukraine and Israel. The world is at its most unstable point since World War II.

00:43:06.000 With nuclear weapons, the stakes are 10 times higher. How do people like you and I stay safe?

00:43:10.720 Especially, uh, especially we've got liberal partisans in Canada saying we need to form a

00:43:15.920 nuclear alliance with the UK and Europe. That's crazy. Every prepper needs to have radio guard

00:43:26.480 ACE, the only FDA approved drug to treat radioactive fallout. Only the feds had it until now. That's

00:43:32.080 why rumble partnered with five G free, the only company in the world that has a supply of radio guard

00:43:36.000 ACE and the ability to prescribe it prophylactically, get their radiation emergency kit with radio

00:43:40.640 guard ACE, potassium iodide, Zofran and a Geiger counter. There's simply no other tool in your

00:43:45.360 arsenal to protect against a radioactive threat. Go to 5gfree.com code studio to save 15% and get your

00:43:52.960 radiation kit now. Okay, let's hit a rebel news ad break. And I'm just going to poke on over to

00:43:58.160 the JCCF's X account and see if there are any updates in the meantime.

00:44:02.720 Canadians know the national anthem. They stand in silence to remember those who died for this country,

00:44:10.880 but not every Canadian knows their rights and freedoms. The Freedom Passport will change that.

00:44:16.880 It looks and feels like a Canadian passport, but contains the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms

00:44:23.440 in a portable, easy to read format. The Freedom Passport. Order one for yourself and for all

00:44:30.080 the freedom lovers that you love at freedompassport.ca.

00:44:38.400 I've got a better idea than tariffs. What would an America first strategy for Canada US trade look like?

00:44:45.520 Is there room for a Trump style mega deal even bigger than Greenland? A dozen years ago, I wrote a

00:44:52.080 best-selling book called Ethical Oil, The Case for Canada's Oil Sands, which made the liberal argument

00:44:58.880 that the oil sands are the fair trade coffee of the world's oil industry. In my new book, Deal of the Century,

00:45:05.360 I look at Canada US trade through an America first lens, and I come to the conclusion that far from putting

00:45:11.440 tariffs on Canadian oil, Donald Trump should ink a 50-year, $13 trillion deal to buy all 170

00:45:20.320 billion barrels of Canada's oil sands, shutting out China, and giving Canada the means to pay for a

00:45:26.640 rebuilt military. And as for yanking Trudeau's chain, well, he'll be gone as Prime Minister in a few weeks,

00:45:33.600 but I've got a better suggestion for how Trump can slap Trudeau around a bit without hurting America's

00:45:40.320 economic interests. That's in the book too. Get your copy now at dealofthesenturybook.com.

00:45:48.000 And trust me, Trudeau doesn't want you to see this.

00:45:51.280 All right. Let's go into a press conference in Alberta yesterday. Daniel Smith announcing

00:46:02.720 retaliatory, I guess. Again, it's the booze wars, as if. I realize that this is one of the things they

00:46:14.080 think will hurt Americans, but it just hurts Canadian consumers, right? We're such a small

00:46:21.760 market for any of their products. All of a sudden, we just don't have the booze we want,

00:46:27.120 and I'm just so tired of this. I think I reached adrenal fatigue on this during the Bud Light scandal,

00:46:34.880 where I was like, I'm so sick of just booze virtue signaling. And now I just had to sit through the

00:46:39.680 Molson Canadian guy telling me that the Americans are all Russian operatives. I'm just so done with

00:46:45.120 this. I'm disappointed to hear Daniel Smith talk about removing American alcohol from our shelves.

00:46:53.520 Is it me, or we are just looking at a bunch of alcoholic?

00:46:57.520 It's just, yeah, that's the thing. Just, I don't know. They'll just, people will drink something else,

00:47:03.200 and that's fine. But I mean, do you think you're hurting the large American breweries?

00:47:10.080 Probably not. You're just like the Canadian that wants their American whiskey, isn't going to get 0.96

00:47:15.120 it. So thanks for the forced patriotism. Anyway, let's look at this video. She's discussing the

00:47:21.120 potential economic impact of pulling alcohol from their shelves. There's $292 million worth of

00:47:29.440 liquor products, U.S. liquor products sold in Alberta in the 23-24 fiscal year, generated $84

00:47:36.560 million of markup revenue for the province. And so if you look at that quantum here, and then just

00:47:42.560 imagine that we're about 12% of the population, all of the other provinces are doing the same.

00:47:47.360 So I would suggest that it's probably in total somewhere between $2 and $3 billion of impact across

00:47:54.880 a multitude of providers of these products. And we do know that these are the kind of things in the

00:48:00.960 past that has gotten various producers to call their Congress representatives and put some pressure.

00:48:08.080 And so that's part of what we're doing. What we did in identifying some of our issues in supporting,

00:48:14.800 first off, the $30 billion worth of tariffs, it was identifying those products which are easily

00:48:19.680 replaceable with other products so that it does not inconvenience Canadian consumers or doesn't

00:48:26.480 end up pricing them out. And I would say that all of these products that AGLC produces, there are

00:48:33.920 reasonable equivalents from Canadian jurisdictions as well as other jurisdictions that honor the free

00:48:39.920 trade agreements we have with them. You know what I think will happen for part of it? I think some

00:48:47.280 people will just go to the US, buy it there and just bring it back. Yeah, and bring it back.

00:48:51.520 Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I guess like $1 or $2 billion worth of economic impact

00:49:00.880 will probably, of course, cause those breweries to call their congressmen. Better hope they are

00:49:06.720 Republicans so that they can get the ear of the president. But I'm against tariffs in all of their

00:49:14.720 form, whether they're from the Americans or from the Canadians. And I just, I just don't support any 0.98

00:49:20.720 of it. I just think it's all nonsense and none, and none of it had to be this way because now we're

00:49:27.280 American breweries are going to be losing out when the bad guy in all of this is still Justin Trudeau.

00:49:33.760 Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And I don't know why we are calling it a tariff. It's actually a tax.

00:49:41.200 Yes. Yes. And as Franco Teresano points out,

00:49:45.760 on April 1st, the government is hiking the feds, Justin Trudeau, hiking the carbon tax 19%

00:49:54.960 and increasing alcohol taxes here on April 1st. So if they really want to, as Franco points out,

00:50:05.600 help Canadians who are dealing with tariffs that are being levied against us, because quite frankly,

00:50:10.400 I mean, if we cut through the baloney, it's because Donald Trump does not respect Justin Trudeau or the

00:50:15.440 Liberals. The federal government should go on a massive tax cut spree for Canadians to alleviate

00:50:25.600 some of the pressures here, but we know they won't. They're just continuing to add taxes on top of taxes,

00:50:30.000 on top of taxes, and squeezing Canadians when they cannot be squeezed anymore.

00:50:35.440 And you know, I don't know why the politicians have something with the alcohol. I don't know if you remember,

00:50:42.480 but back in 2021, in Quebec, the people who were, you know, since we are on YouTube, I cannot say it, but

00:50:55.600 didn't receive what, you know, we were not allowed to go and buy alcohol. So they actually blocked us to go. So it's

00:51:06.720 kind of a tool that they use, as I'm going to give it to you or not. It's like, it's not supposed to be

00:51:15.120 like that. Like, we are not kids, we are supposed to be a, we are supposed to be a consumer, and you

00:51:23.920 are a public servant, and you should find another way than just to play with as stupidity as alcohol. 1.00

00:51:30.880 So it's dumb. It's dumb. And again, they're pulling American alcohol off the shelves instead 1.00

00:51:37.120 of dealing with the fentanyl issue. We bought it. We already bought those bottles.

00:51:41.520 I know. I know. That's the thing. Even in Alberta, because we have like a,

00:51:46.480 what she said is the AGLC. That's the Alberta Gaming Liquor and Cannabis Commissioner, however you say it.

00:51:52.560 Um, that's this government agency that does the bulk buying. It's the distributor and then

00:51:57.680 everything else is privatized. Um, yeah, they already bought it. Like, what are you doing?

00:52:02.800 What are you, what are you doing? Um, I can understand not buying any more of it. Hopefully

00:52:07.680 that's what they intend to do. Um, because otherwise you've got a stranded asset there that is just

00:52:15.280 sitting there, unusable. And what they would do with it, like, just putting in the back of...

00:52:23.360 Yeah, store it, I guess. Store it until the tariffs are over. They showed everybody. Um,

00:52:28.720 we've got, uh, Daniel Smith also urging the federal government not to implement an export tax or cut off

00:52:36.560 energy to the U.S. So, um, I guess Daniel Smith's solution is as close to free marketing as you can

00:52:45.520 get considering she's just saying, okay, we're not going to buy American booze, uh, through the

00:52:49.440 government agency. Um, but she's still not imposing tariffs and asking them not to impose tariffs. So 0.91

00:52:56.720 let's listen to this. What is Alberta willing to do if the federal government does, uh, put in some

00:53:03.280 type of export tax or decide to cut off energy to the U.S.? Well, an, an export tax would be a

00:53:09.120 violation of the 1977 pipeline treaty. We've committed to not tax the content of energy

00:53:15.600 products going down to the United States. And I would hope that the federal government would abide

00:53:19.680 by Alberta's wishes not to unfairly, uh, tax our jurisdiction. I, I know what an export tax would

00:53:26.000 mean. $150 billion worth of product taxed at 25% would generate $40 billion for Ottawa that would

00:53:32.960 then be spent on Ottawa's priorities. And I have absolutely no interest. You will notice

00:53:37.760 that when Doug talked about adding a surtax, he wasn't talking about Ottawa adding an export tax

00:53:43.040 that then would be collected by Ottawa to be decided where it was going to be spent by Ottawa. He's adding

00:53:48.080 that tax so that he has the ability to keep those dollars in his own province to be able to defray any

00:53:53.920 of the damage on his own people. So I would say it is not on, it's not been on from the beginning.

00:53:58.720 And you do not demonstrate that you are a reliable supplier of energy products or our most important

00:54:04.160 trading partner by acting in that, in that kind of erratic way. So there, there's no circumstance

00:54:09.440 under which I would support an export tax. This is another thing about the tax. Where's the money

00:54:15.440 going to be used for? And we saw Pierre Poliev saying that those, the money generated by the, the counter

00:54:25.040 tariff should be spent to have a tax cut relief of the citizen.

00:54:32.720 Or just not, just not tariff anything because I don't trust the government to give me a tax cut

00:54:38.880 because that's like the carbon tax. Oh, we're going to collect it. And then we're going to give

00:54:42.240 you a rebate. How about you just don't collect it? Thank you very much. I don't trust you.

00:54:46.960 Because all you do is lie. We've got one, I think this is a rumble rant. It's from Orisia,

00:54:55.200 because it's 10 bucks. Seems like Canada is drowning in so many issues. I feel Trump's message is the

00:54:58.960 only thing that can save us or Canada must break up as in divorce. I think there are a lot of people who

00:55:05.760 feel that way. Uh, especially when you see Daniel Smith saying, uh, the feds want to put an export

00:55:13.760 tax on our oil, which is not something within their ability to do, but they, it's the feds,

00:55:20.000 they'll do it anyway. And they're going to keep that money. So they're going to tax our stuff going

00:55:25.040 out the door to the American on our product and then keep it in Ottawa. That kind of stuff will cause

00:55:31.760 the sovereignty crisis. Uh, and by the way, what's going to happen with Quebec and Ontario?

00:55:38.080 Yeah, yeah, exactly. Line five. Uh, so you, the feds impose an export tax on oil and gas going to

00:55:46.000 the United States, if they're not allowed to do what's Trump going to do, do the same on line five,

00:55:51.040 which is Alberta oil and gas, but it's got to cut through Michigan. Um, which is, you know,

00:55:56.080 what good neighbors do, but you want that tax on the way back in, you're going to get tax on tax now

00:56:01.760 because it's been taxed on the way out and then Trump's going to stick it to you on the way back

00:56:05.680 in. And so enjoy $6 a liter of fuel, Ontario and Quebec. Thank you. Um, I don't want that.

00:56:12.480 It's already more expensive in our side. I'm pretty sure. I don't want you to have it either. I want

00:56:17.200 you to have all the Canadian oil and gas you people can handle. The liberals just don't feel the same way.

00:56:21.280 Um, let's go into Mark Carney getting special treatment. I'm trying to get to all the headlines

00:56:28.880 before I have to run out the door. Um, Minister Jolie briefed Mark Carney on the tariffs, on private

00:56:38.640 negotiations, high level negotiations on Trump tariffs, but not the other liberal leadership

00:56:45.760 candidates. So he was, he's just a dude. He's not anything. He's not a sitting MP. By the way,

00:56:50.960 as Michelle Rumpel Garner points out, she said, I'm a sitting MP. I'm not getting these briefings.

00:56:56.800 What the heck are you doing with this guy? What other high level information are you giving to

00:57:02.000 Mark Carney, by the way? Uh, sources said that when a caucus member pointed out that there are

00:57:06.880 three other candidates, Jolie said she would brief them if she can. Unreal.

00:57:13.440 So, but it's obvious that Mark Carney is the chosen one. Um, as seen in the report of David Menzi,

00:57:22.800 he has RCMP. RCMP detail. Now that is somebody. So the public safety minister can provide security

00:57:34.000 through the RCMP to anyone who is a citizen or a permanent resident if the minister designates.

00:57:42.320 So the minister, which I think is McGinty at this point, it used to be LeBlanc. I think it's McGinty now.

00:57:47.600 Um, that person McGinty is giving Mark Carney preferential treatment. And I bet you, I bet you

00:57:58.960 Gould is not getting that. I'm pretty sure the other two one doesn't have that three one. I don't

00:58:05.680 know. I don't know. I haven't seen her even have a campaign event.

00:58:08.800 So I don't know. Speaking of, uh, Mark Carney and campaign events, here's a statement from the

00:58:20.720 independent press gallery. So the independent press gallery, for those of you who don't know,

00:58:24.080 we're all members. Some of us are more than members. Um, it is the counterbalance to the

00:58:32.080 taxpayer funded mainstream media to be in the independent press gallery. You have to commit to

00:58:38.560 not take government funding at all. And so, uh, it, uh, helps to educate and fight for the rights

00:58:47.920 of independent journalists. Um, in the past, it has held leadership debates for the conservative

00:58:52.720 party, um, which was more of a, like a fireside chat, but regardless, I mean, it's, uh, allowed

00:58:59.040 independent journalists and opportunity to ask questions of the political leaders. And anyway,

00:59:04.800 this is the statement from the independent press gallery yesterday. Let's read it together.

00:59:10.480 The independent press gallery condemns Mark Carney's exclusion of independent journalists,

00:59:15.280 the independent press gallery of Canada or the IPG strongly condemns liberal leadership

00:59:19.920 candidate Mark Carney's repeated exclusion of independent journalists from his campaign events

00:59:24.240 on January 16th, 2025, during Carney's campaign launch in Edmonton, several independent journalists

00:59:29.920 from true Northwestern standard and the counter signal were denied entry despite holding valid

00:59:34.000 invitations. Notably James Snell, an accredited member of the Alberta legislative press gallery

00:59:39.840 was among those barred. The police were called to remove these journalists at the campaign's request.

00:59:44.800 The troubling trend continued March 4th, 2025 where independent journalists, including those from

00:59:49.760 Western standard and rebel news were again, denied entry. Carney is avoiding journalistic scrutiny,

00:59:55.280 contradicting the, sorry, contradicting the principles enshrined in the Canadian

00:59:59.920 Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Carney's refusal to engage with independent journalists contrasts

01:00:04.400 sharply with conservative leader Pierre Polyev's inclusive media approach, which allows both mainstream

01:00:09.840 and independent outlets to attend and question him at public events. The independent press gallery

01:00:14.720 calls on Mark Carney's campaign to cease these undemocratic practices immediately and to permit

01:00:19.680 independent journalists to attend, report and ask questions freely as is their right in a true

01:00:25.920 democracy. We also urge all political campaigns, regardless of party affiliation, to respect press

01:00:32.560 freedom and ensure open access to their events. Journalists, whether government funded or independent,

01:00:37.840 play a crucial role in asking tough questions and holding public figures accountable. Mark Carney's campaign

01:00:43.360 must address its disturbing efforts to silence critical media voices. Signed, Sheila Gunn-Reed, President of the

01:00:50.880 Independent Press Gallery of Canada. That was actually like straight to the point. Like we, we didn't see that

01:00:59.760 much condemnation for what independent journalists pass through under the liberals. And I think to have you

01:01:11.200 shedding light and telling the public about what is going on, I think it's really crucial.

01:01:18.320 Yeah, I want to make sure that every time something happens to an independent journalist, one of ours,

01:01:24.400 you know, or just an independent journalist out there, Western Standard, Juno News,

01:01:32.160 people who are completely independent, just a one-man shop. I want them to know,

01:01:37.600 first of all, I want the politicians to know that the independent press gallery is watching. And so

01:01:44.960 when you're watching, we're going to name you and shame you and, and maybe even take it to the next

01:01:51.040 level. Uh, because the new media is the media in this country. It's what people are watching.

01:01:58.640 It's why Justin Trudeau is trying to control our access to the internet and the things we can stream,

01:02:05.760 see and say online. He knows the new media is taking over and it all started with the introduction

01:02:11.120 of these things to our pockets. Um, and, uh, the old media, they're not adjusting well.

01:02:20.560 Um, and the political parties, neither are they. Um, but at the very least, we're going to do our

01:02:26.640 best to make sure that everybody behaves themselves. I think that's it. That's perfect.

01:02:35.440 Thank you. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk. Uh, that was powerful. I was about to feel it.

01:02:41.840 Yeah, it was true. I mean, you guys are, we're all out there just trying to do our jobs. And

01:02:45.760 I think we, as independent journalists, we're closer connected to our audience than the mainstream

01:02:51.440 media who sit in a cubicle somewhere and they don't like to mess around with the normals. They don't

01:02:56.000 like to cross paths with the public. Um, but I think that by and large, we ask questions that the

01:03:02.720 public wants answers to not, you know, the NGO or the environmentalist organization, what they want

01:03:08.720 answers to. Uh, like if you saw Angelica's questions that she shouted to Mark Carney because she was

01:03:15.520 not allowed inside the event, there are questions that you guys want answers to. She asked about his

01:03:20.640 relationship, if any, with convicted sex trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell. I think people want to know

01:03:26.880 that she asked about, you know, like, why did you move the head office to Brookfield? Why did you lie

01:03:32.080 about the timeline of moving the head office of Brookfield to the United States while yammering

01:03:37.040 on about protecting Canadian jobs? Those are questions that people want answers to. Um, but

01:03:44.720 the politicians don't want to answer them. We will continue to fight for the rights of

01:03:48.720 journalists to ask those, uh, in a free liberal Western democracy. This isn't North Korea.

01:03:55.040 And the fact that we shot the question, obviously they will not answer to us, but this is giving you

01:04:01.680 the proof why they deny entrance to independent journalists, because those questions, they don't

01:04:08.800 want them in a press conference where they are live in TV. Yes. And also it shows you the necessity

01:04:18.080 of the independent media because the journalists with access would never ask those questions. Why?

01:04:24.720 Because they don't want to be on the outside with us. So to protect their access, they ask stupid 1.00

01:04:28.960 questions like, uh, why did you call the borders are a czar and not a border secretary? Like they ask 1.00

01:04:36.320 stupid, literally that I just, that's a question they asked. Um, they ask stupid questions like 1.00

01:04:42.320 that, or what sort of shampoo do you use instead of asking the stuff that matters? So it is what it is. 1.00

01:04:48.400 Uh, as long as they keep doing a bad job, we'll have job security forever. That's the, that's,

01:04:53.760 that's the silver lining in that story there. Um, Olivia Efron, are we all caught up?

01:04:59.920 Okay, perfect. We can wrap up. Um, viewers, if you have not quite yet had enough Rebel News live

01:05:09.440 stream, why don't you head on over to Rebel News Canada's YouTube page, where we are currently

01:05:14.720 streaming the National Citizens Inquiry from Edmonton. Um, you can watch it there, comment

01:05:21.760 along on the live stream there with, uh, you know, about a thousand other like-minded people,

01:05:26.480 I think, who are currently watching. Um, and I'm going to close my laptop, put it in my

01:05:32.080 little bag and I'm going to head into Edmonton to cover the NCI in person. Alexa, thanks so much

01:05:37.440 for coming on the show today. Thanks so much, by the way, for all the hard work that you do for

01:05:41.120 Rebel News on behalf of our viewers and supporters. You put yourself in harm's way more than I would like.

01:05:46.800 Um, but I know that you do it with a real heart for the people that you're speaking on behalf of.

01:05:52.320 And thank you, you, because people don't know, but Sheila is always working. 0.99

01:06:00.640 Always. It is true. It is true. But, uh, as, uh, Ezra says, as one of our like supporters told

01:06:08.160 Ezra, what we do is less of a job and more of a ministry. I feel that way. Truly. Um, Olivia Efron,

01:06:16.320 thanks so much for the work you do behind the board there and everybody else at Rebel News who make sure

01:06:21.360 the show is there for you to watch whenever you want to watch it. Thanks to everybody who

01:06:25.280 pitches in a little bit to keep the lights on here at Rebel News. I'm going to ask you guys a favor.

01:06:29.920 If, uh, if you could just share this link of the stream to somebody you think needs to find Rebel

01:06:35.600 News or needs to see, uh, what we talked about today, I would so appreciate that because as you

01:06:40.480 know, we're in a time of intense censorship. So if you would help us get around that by sharing it

01:06:45.600 directly, that would be the one wonderful thing that you could do for me today. Um,

01:06:50.400 subscribe and like, and comment, give a comment. Yeah. Comment. It helps us in the algorithm

01:06:57.520 in ways that you, uh, none of us quite understand. The algorithm is a, is a mystery. Well, everybody,

01:07:04.400 uh, again, thanks so much. And as my friend, David Menzies always says, stay safe and stay safe.

01:07:09.360 On a personal level, I've made sure that every single day in this office, I put Canadians first,

01:07:18.240 that I have people's backs. And that's why I'm here to tell you all that we got you.

01:07:26.560 Even in the very last days of this government, we will not let Canadians down today

01:07:33.680 and long into the future. Because in the past few weeks, we've been working with our provincial

01:07:39.520 and territorial partners to make sure that families can rely on this system, not just for years to come,

01:07:45.360 but we'll allow this system to lock in, to become something that no government a year from now,

01:07:55.760 five years from now, 20 years from now could ever go back on.
