00:00:53.100 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you, in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favorite Rebels.

00:01:02.300 I'm your host, David Menzies.

00:01:04.300 Well, Jessica Swetnowski will drop by to weigh in on her most recent mission, namely visiting Richmond Hill, the site of a Liberal fundraiser, earlier this week,

00:01:15.560 to deliver the message via Jumbotron-equipped truck that Justin Trudeau is a fake feminist. 1.00

00:01:23.480 Hey, somebody had to do it.

00:01:25.440 And speaking of virtue signaling Justin, Sheila Gunn-Reed will detail what the cost has been to date in terms of accommodating all those irregulars who flooded into our dominion thanks to that irresponsible welcome to Canada tweet. 0.94

00:01:43.100 And finally, letters.

00:01:45.400 We get your letters.

00:01:46.280 We get your letters every minute of every day, and I'll share some of your responses regarding how the Trudeau Liberals continue to both apologize and whitewash history.

00:01:58.260 The latest example, rebranding a federal government building in Vancouver.

00:02:02.780 Apparently, the conservative it was named after is no longer politically correct.

00:02:08.460 Those are your rebels.

00:02:09.380 Now, let's round them up.

00:02:13.100 We're going around Richmond Hill today to warn everybody and spread the word that Justin Trudeau is a fake feminist. 0.95

00:02:24.180 He uses the label to virtue signal and pander to women to get their votes.

00:02:29.460 Sheila laid it all out for us, laid out all the facts in one of her videos, but today we are taking those uncomfortable images out on the street.

00:02:37.640 If you like these billboards as much as I do, you can help us by donating at fakefeminist.com.

00:02:45.720 Hi, Cindy.

00:02:46.540 Are you guys here for Justin Trudeau?

00:02:47.900 Yes, we are.

00:02:48.620 Can I ask you a question?

00:02:49.760 Do you think Justin Trudeau is a feminist? 0.99

00:02:53.020 I'm actually okay.

00:02:54.100 Thank you.

00:02:54.500 Okay, thanks.

00:02:55.740 Do you think Justin Trudeau is a feminist? 0.99

00:02:57.860 Yes.

00:02:58.640 Yes?

00:02:59.220 So, do you think Justin Trudeau is a feminist? 1.00

00:03:03.060 Yes.

00:03:03.500 And as a feminist, should we believe all women?

00:03:07.660 Yes, I believe.

00:03:08.840 And so, should we believe Rose Knight when she said that Justin Trudeau assaulted her?

00:03:13.900 No comment, I don't think.

00:03:16.000 Do you think he's a feminist? 1.00

00:03:17.700 I'm not really sure.

00:03:19.360 Do you think Justin Trudeau is a feminist? 0.99

00:03:21.940 Yes.

00:03:22.860 And as a feminist, do you believe in when Rose Knight said that Justin Trudeau sexually assaulted her?

00:03:29.380 Do you believe that?

00:03:30.420 No, absolutely no.

00:03:31.540 So, you don't believe her?

00:03:33.400 Excuse me, can I ask?

00:03:34.440 Do you guys think Justin Trudeau is a feminist?

00:03:37.600 Do you think he's a feminist ally to women? 0.99

00:03:40.240 I didn't think so.

00:03:42.100 You know, watching the sheeple who continue to worship Justin Trudeau, the Hogan's Heroes character, Sergeant Schultz, comes to mind.

00:03:51.160 In other words, when you ask them to articulate their opinions on our virtue-signaling prime minister, you are met with a steady commentary of, I know nothing, I saw nothing.

00:04:03.140 I think I'd cue the laugh track here, folks, but there's really nothing to laugh about.

00:04:08.640 It's sad, really.

00:04:09.760 And with more on our latest caper, namely advertising via Jumbotron-equipped truck that Justin Trudeau is truly a fake feminist, is our very own Jessica Swetnowski. 0.98

00:04:21.960 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, Jessica.

00:04:23.400 Thank you.

00:04:24.040 So, tell me, you were in my hood, Richmond Hill, Ontario, yesterday.

00:04:28.580 How did it go?

00:04:29.460 What was the reaction you were getting?

00:04:31.520 It was a little rainy last night, so I think people were trying to get into the event as soon as possible.

00:04:38.480 And, of course, when they see a reporter outside any Liberal event, I think they're a little wary about it.

00:04:43.740 Right.

00:04:43.940 But, of course, you know, I tried to talk to Liberal attendees at the donor dinner.

00:04:49.560 Yeah.

00:04:50.360 Some of them gave me a quick second, but as soon as I asked my question, which was, do you think Trudeau is a feminist, they, you know, backed away. 0.98

00:04:58.800 Or they would quickly just yell out yes and then run inside.

00:05:02.380 You know, that's the thing, Jessica.

00:05:04.240 By far, the most prevalent answer was yes.

00:05:08.180 And then when you justifiably tried to get them to justify why he's a feminist and then brought up some specific examples of him not really being a feminist, but of him, well, in the case of Rose Knight, of course, groping her and molesting her against her will, suddenly, oh, you know what, I've got a bus to catch.

00:05:30.760 And, I mean, it's the cowardice that you captured that I found fascinating, that they say the politically correct thing, which is yes, but they can't articulate why he's a feminist.

00:05:44.020 Yeah, exactly.

00:05:44.740 And even they know I have a follow-up question, so sometimes they didn't even give me a chance to get another word in.

00:05:53.000 They really just bolt to the door to get away from a camera and a mic because they themselves don't really know why he's a feminist. 1.00

00:06:01.520 They just know that because that's what he says he is.

00:06:05.080 Yes.

00:06:05.500 And, yeah, and exactly, you'll see in the video, there's a couple moments where they get really stumped on the Rose Knight situation.

00:06:14.140 Yes.

00:06:14.360 Especially as a feminist, we're told to believe all women, but then when it's one woman that's saying something against their narrative, then we shouldn't believe her.

00:06:26.020 You know, and that is incredible.

00:06:28.820 And also, it's not just the Rose Knight.

00:06:31.500 It's also Jane Philpott.

00:06:34.320 It's Jody Wilson-Raybould.

00:06:35.820 What I'm getting at, it's not a matter of him being handsy to, say, a young female reporter, but him just having a profound difficulty with powerful women, opinionated women, smart women.

00:06:51.740 You would think a man who declares himself a feminist would like to see all those attributes encompassed in a woman, but he has a profound problem with it.

00:07:02.420 Yeah, he, yeah, the whole idea that he wants to have all these strong women around him, but as soon as they are, they do stand up. 0.99

00:07:12.620 And in the Jody Wilson-Raybould, that situation, when she did stand her ground and she didn't bend to the knee, that's when we saw the real side of him, which is not a feminist side.

00:07:23.560 It's my way or the highway.

00:07:26.180 You should, you should be thankful that I put you in this situation, in this position you're in now.

00:07:32.640 How dare you go again?

00:07:33.780 Like, he switches very quickly.

00:07:35.960 Well, you know, and I found that was a double whammy, of course, Jessica, because not only is Jody Wilson-Raybould a woman, but she's also Native. 1.00

00:07:43.620 And, of course, Justin Trudeau dines out on giving apologies to Natives, so much so that one of the ultimate ones was an apology to Natives. 1.00

00:07:55.300 It was something that happened prior to 1867.

00:07:59.160 In other words, before Canada was Canada.

00:08:01.160 And that brings about, you know, this theme.

00:08:05.720 It's an ongoing theme, I think it is, Jessica, where he will apologize to any special interest group that was hard done by somebody long, long time ago.

00:08:19.600 But when it comes to his own odious behavior in the here and now, has he ever said sorry?

00:08:25.300 Well, we remember that video of him elbowing somebody in Parliament.

00:08:31.600 He elbowed the woman in Parliament. 0.99

00:08:34.020 And then, and especially, Rose Knight always comes to mind in this because his response to the allegations were, she experienced it differently.

00:08:43.380 Like, what?

00:08:45.580 Yeah, if you're groping a woman, she's going to experience it differently from your end if you're the one groping.

00:08:50.880 Oh, indeed. And I remember coming across, it was a Chatelaine article where they were interviewing all the heads of the parties, the political parties.

00:09:03.260 And when it came to that little thorny question they threw in for Justin Trudeau, what I found astonishing is that he said words to the effect, I'm just paraphrasing now, that that incident was a learning experience for us.

00:09:16.600 He used the pronouns, pronoun us, not me, right?

00:09:19.760 And I thought, the chutzpah, the audacity that you're the one that did this on your own accord, and yet this is something we need to learn a lesson from?

00:09:30.440 Yeah, it's quite childish, isn't it?

00:09:33.760 To point, like, even everyone's pointing the blame at him, and he's just trying to spin that around and point at all of us, for us to be inclusive and to be a learning experience for everyone, except for him that he's the one that actually did those things.

00:09:49.160 It's amazing. It's amazing. And Jessica, I've got to ask you something, simply because you are female. You know, I would never describe myself as a feminist. I believe men and women are equal, 100%, and we're different.

00:10:02.500 And those differences should be celebrated. They shouldn't be whitewashed and homogenized, which is something the left seems to like to do.

00:10:10.840 But I guess where I'm going with this is the men that I see declaring themselves to be feminists, Justin Trudeau, Dion Buse, who assaulted our colleague Sheila Gunn-Reed at a women's rally, no less, Jordan Hunt, the guy that goes around kicking women at pro-life rallies.

00:10:33.780 These are all self-declared feminists, and where is the feminism? They seem to be anti-female. What's your take when you hear a man declare himself to be a feminist? 0.93

00:10:47.960 What's my take? Well, first of all, it might be a little, like, an unpopular opinion, but we're in 2019. We're living in Canada. I don't think feminism is that important. 0.97

00:10:59.520 I don't think we need feminism as much as it's being pushed by the mainstream media and, you know, and Justin Trudeau and all these people. 0.96

00:11:08.400 Like, why they're pushing? And when they try, when they label themselves as a feminist, a male feminist, that's just pandering.

00:11:17.620 To me, that's just trying to be an ally. And it's just like, I think it's manipulative and it's sneaky, and I think they have an ulterior motive to it.

00:11:27.240 I don't think I've ever met a man that really believes he's a feminist and doesn't talk about it.

00:11:35.640 As soon as you start talking about it publicly and labeling yourself as that and, like, pushing it and making it the forefront,

00:11:41.360 then it's like, why are you pushing this so much?

00:11:43.540 If you're a feminist or if you believe in equal rights and all that, then that's good. 0.98

00:11:48.660 That's your own ideology. That's great.

00:11:50.660 And then, you know, live your life based on that.

00:11:53.000 But when you keep repeating it, repeating, repeat it, there's an ulterior motive there.

00:11:57.060 I think you're 100% right.

00:11:58.800 My spidey sense starts to tingle when I hear that.

00:12:01.320 And like I said, a man doesn't have to be a feminist to support equal rights for all. 1.00

00:12:07.080 One last question, Jessica.

00:12:09.080 You know, I adore these trucks with the Jumbotron.

00:12:12.040 I know you're driving it around the area.

00:12:15.720 Aside from the people at the Liberal fundraiser who probably looked upon you as the proverbial skunk to the Garden Party,

00:12:23.780 what kind of responses were you getting to the people on the street observing those messages?

00:12:29.260 It's so much fun looking at people's reactions.

00:12:33.280 Like, you can't ignore it.

00:12:36.120 It's a huge billboard truck with bright, colorful lights.

00:12:39.880 And it looks interesting when you pass by, you want to look at it.

00:12:43.700 And we were playing Rolling Stones music, Under Your Thumb, which was a great song, too.

00:12:49.700 So it was like, it was just a good time for me, at least.

00:12:52.900 But yeah, it's so entertaining watching people's heads turn.

00:12:56.060 And, you know, of course there's laughter and there's like a little bit of shock.

00:13:00.140 And people stop and take pictures and videos of it.

00:13:03.900 And it's entertaining, but also it starts the conversation.

00:13:07.780 You know, somebody takes a picture of it, puts it online, shares it.

00:13:12.060 And it just, it starts a conversation.

00:13:13.860 And I think it's a great conversation starter.

00:13:16.120 It's a great way to spread a message.

00:13:18.840 And like I said, it's a fun, entertaining way.

00:13:21.740 But also you can't ignore it.

00:13:23.600 Any hostile responses?

00:13:25.420 You know, raise middle fingers, anything like that?

00:13:27.360 No.

00:13:27.580 No?

00:13:27.940 No.

00:13:28.220 That's good.

00:13:28.800 Yeah, it was pretty.

00:13:30.540 Yeah, and especially being in Toronto, you think, like we moved around.

00:13:33.380 We went to Richmond Hill and then we drove it all the way to North York.

00:13:37.500 And around there we were driving it around.

00:13:39.680 And yeah, the responses were pretty positive.

00:13:42.540 I didn't have any hostile interaction at all.

00:13:45.800 Great.

00:13:46.160 Well, you did a great job as always, Jessica.

00:13:48.140 So thank you for dropping by.

00:13:49.280 But a few short months later, let's just see how this sudden influx of cash and a finger wag at the asylum seekers is playing out in reality at the border.

00:14:06.140 Is this tiny tweak in legislation fixing the stampede Justin Trudeau's one welcome to Canada tweet caused in our entire immigration system?

00:14:16.540 True North Centre's Candice Malcolm has all the details in a new Toronto Sun article.

00:14:22.280 She writes,

00:14:23.100 In the first six months of 2019, 26,860 people entered Canada illegally or under false pretenses to make asylum claims.

00:14:33.560 That number is higher than the first half of 2018 when Canada received 25,225 claims and the first half of 2017 when 18,445 claims were filed.

00:14:46.960 It's more than the total number of claims in 2016 at 23,870.

00:14:52.240 Oh, so it's getting even worse, way worse?

00:14:56.060 And the Liberal solution of pouring cash on the fire isn't helping the situation?

00:15:01.300 Go figure.

00:15:02.960 And what does this increase in illegal immigration look like in a practical sense?

00:15:07.500 Well, over to Global News for just some of that information.

00:15:11.540 Border agents don't have the resources to deport the growing numbers of those who need to be shown the door right out of our country. 0.72

00:15:19.880 Has a single silly amateur virtue-signalling tweet by a head of state of any nation in the world done as much damage as Justin Trudeau's infamous welcome to Canada communique?

00:15:33.000 The end result was entirely predictable.

00:15:35.800 A stampede of illegal immigrants, most of whom are apparently economic migrants as opposed to bona fide refugees.

00:15:44.140 This has cost the country hundreds of millions of dollars while reducing the RCMP to the Royal Canadian Bellhop Police.

00:15:53.240 Despite what you might have been told by our fearless leader, the problem of illegal, oops, I mean irregular immigrants flooding into Canada continues to fester. 0.67

00:16:05.260 Joining me now with more on this story is the host of The Gun Show, Sheila Gunn-Reed.

00:16:09.420 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, my friend.

00:16:11.020 Hey, David, thanks for having me on the show.

00:16:14.200 Hey, Sheila, another great commentary, but I've got to ask you, if we were to believe the Trudeau Liberals,

00:16:20.460 everything is just A-OK and peachy keen at the border these days, nothing to see here, move along.

00:16:26.080 Yeah, and I think the budget balanced itself too, didn't it?

00:16:29.700 Yeah, yeah, I mean the Liberals made this, they made a big funding announcement in the last budget.

00:16:38.340 They were going to give $1.2 billion, I think over five, 1.2 billion, excuse me, over five years to deal with the border crisis.

00:16:45.160 Then they were going to tweak the legislation just a little so that asylum seekers who have applied for asylum in other countries

00:16:54.200 cannot now then apply for asylum in Canada, basically stop asylum shopping.

00:16:59.600 And really it was targeted at those people who had tried to seek asylum in the United States and were denied and then were seeking asylum in Canada.

00:17:08.600 Well, that amounts to about 3,000 people over the course of two years.

00:17:11.980 When we're seeing hundreds of thousands of people just strolling across the border, I mean, it addressed a statistical rounding error in the problem.

00:17:21.480 And then they are, you know, they want to pat on the back for doing something good.

00:17:25.120 They've just dumped a bunch of money at a problem and really haven't done anything substantive.

00:17:30.440 And when you talk to the head of the CBSA, the way I think it was Mercedes Stevenson did, he said that people are coming to Canada because they don't like Trump's policies, his crackdown on immigration.

00:17:46.160 So the answer to stop these people from coming to Canada is to just be a little more Trumpy in that we need to enforce the existing immigration laws and not entertain people who just strut across the border anywhere they feel like luggage in hands and say, I'm a refugee.

00:18:02.900 Yeah, but Sheila, in one sense, can you blame these people? 0.97

00:18:06.300 I mean, I'm not being facetious here.

00:18:09.000 I'm trying to think, at least in modern history, any world leader that would have tweeted out, please, come and invade us.

00:18:17.740 So if I'm someone, and I'm not being oppressed in the U.S., I mean, my goodness gracious, the United States is one of the greatest democracies in the world, if not the greatest.

00:18:26.780 You know, people aren't being rounded up and tortured like you see in certain regimes in the world today.

00:18:32.940 If I see a world leader literally inviting me in, why wouldn't I take an advantage of that?

00:18:40.840 That's A. B, here's the thing, Sheila, even if Trudeau thought, oh, there'll be abusers to this for sure,

00:18:47.820 why was there no contingency plan put in place in terms of beefing up the RCMP and the border agency so that the con men,

00:18:58.820 you know, the con artists, the flim flam people, could have been weeded out of the genuine refugees coming into Canada? 1.00

00:19:07.180 I suppose I'll answer the second part of your question first, and it's because the Liberals,

00:19:13.320 despite what they might want to temper their rhetoric in the media by saying, they really are open borders radicals.

00:19:20.800 They think that everybody should just be able to waltz into our country and take advantage of our social safety net

00:19:27.240 and all of our services that lawful Canadians pay for.

00:19:31.260 And when I say lawful Canadians, I also mean new immigrants who did things the right way.

00:19:36.300 And, you know, moreover, to your point about how no one is being oppressed in the United States,

00:19:42.160 in Hong Kong right now, America is such a beacon of freedom and good governance in the rest of the world

00:19:50.320 that Hong Kong protesters, people who are protesting against the Chinese, are waving the American flag

00:19:56.940 and singing the American national anthem.

00:19:59.420 It is a symbol of freedom.

00:20:01.520 This rhetoric that people need to be rescued from the United States is, it's crazy, it's insane,

00:20:08.120 it's an insult to the freedom we as Canadians enjoy because of our close proximity

00:20:14.120 and our good relationship with our very powerful American neighbours.

00:20:19.760 I mean, Justin Trudeau is taking every opportunity he can to attack Conservatives,

00:20:24.720 whether it be Trump or Doug Ford, on this issue.

00:20:28.680 I think it was yesterday or the day before he announced that he'll be giving back

00:20:33.920 $26 million in refugee legal aid funding that's a big, mean Conservatives cut under the budget.

00:20:42.720 Well, that's only about half of what the Ontario government has already spent on refugee and asylum seeker legal aid.

00:20:53.200 And all of that is the responsibility of the federal government.

00:20:56.400 So he's not even carrying 50% of his load.

00:20:59.080 And he wants, again, a hero cookie and a Superman sandwich for it.

00:21:02.700 And with regard to the refugee legal aid, these are people that have already broken the law to come into the country. 1.00

00:21:11.240 Now they're potentially going to be deported.

00:21:14.780 Now they are accessing services taxpayers and legal immigrants are funding to fight the government to stay in the country 1.00

00:21:25.040 when they couldn't respect the laws and do it right in the first place.

00:21:28.580 It is crazy that this is even something that the Canadian public is entertaining.

00:21:34.060 You know what, Sheila?

00:21:35.760 I don't think it's crazy as much as it is evil.

00:21:39.200 Whether it's the Justin Trudeau liberals in power now or certain Democrats that want to get into power as president in 2020,

00:21:47.420 I think in the bigger picture, this is all about changing the demography,

00:21:52.180 you know, the demographics of our nations.

00:21:55.360 In other words, let in as many illegals from wherever.

00:22:00.600 And the quid pro quo here is always remember which party did this.

00:22:06.740 Let you and your relatives and everybody else in.

00:22:09.340 Easy peasy.

00:22:10.500 And all we ask is that come election day, you vote for us.

00:22:14.720 I think that's really what's going on here, Sheila.

00:22:18.880 You know, I just saw a story in, I believe it was the CBC, and it was touted as like a good news story.

00:22:25.080 Look at how we are, you know, regularizing these refugees and making them part of Canadian society

00:22:31.840 and all that's all fine and dandy.

00:22:33.760 And it was about how, four years later, that first wave of Syrian refugees,

00:22:38.780 they're now eligible to vote in this next election.

00:22:42.580 And, you know, the story was basically a wink, wink, thumbs up, remember how you got here,

00:22:49.720 and remember how easy it was and how generous it was because of Justin Trudeau.

00:22:55.180 And, you know, you're very right that, sure, we should help the world's persecuted.

00:23:02.480 That's absolutely something that we should do.

00:23:06.780 But that, I don't think, is the motivation for the Liberals here.

00:23:11.700 It's importing a vote bank.

00:23:15.120 Say, Sheila, did the CBC really use that word, regularizing?

00:23:20.960 I've never heard that word before.

00:23:22.800 You know, it's funny that I've seen that word used from time to time

00:23:30.260 when they are trying to, when they talk about people who have fallen out of status.

00:23:36.600 By that, they mean becoming illegal because you've stayed longer than your work permits you do.

00:23:42.880 And then they say, we've got to find ways to regularize these people.

00:23:47.360 And it doesn't involve Metamucil.

00:23:49.320 Oh, gosh, I never even thought of it from that perspective.

00:23:53.400 But, you know, we're ultimately going with this.

00:23:55.620 Just, you know, the use of language, it was, of course, Justin that started popularizing a phrase,

00:24:01.920 I don't know anyone else using, irregular immigrants. 0.99

00:24:07.080 When I go to a department store, I might, you know, want to save a few bucks on some irregular socks.

00:24:13.220 That's how I usually use the word, you know, when something's wrong with the stitching.

00:24:16.860 It's not somebody that has crossed the border illegally.

00:24:20.500 And I want to just very quickly touch upon this, Sheila, and you referred to it a little earlier on.

00:24:26.460 The apologists of all these hordes coming over are saying, they're not criminals.

00:24:31.920 They haven't even stolen as much as a loaf of bread.

00:24:34.940 But if you have entered into a sovereign country illegally under false pretenses, despite an invitation from a prime minister,

00:24:45.360 I'm sorry, you are breaking the law every second you are in the country.

00:24:50.480 And this is why I totally reject feel-good, you know, screen words like irregular, as opposed to what they really are, illegal.

00:25:00.640 Well, the word irregular disregards the fact that there is an existing Canadian law in place.

00:25:07.760 There is a law that says how to get into the country.

00:25:10.600 And if you don't do it that way, you're breaking the law.

00:25:13.860 And by virtue of breaking the law, you are doing something criminal.

00:25:17.340 You're exhibiting criminal behavior.

00:25:20.500 Those are just the facts.

00:25:21.780 But like you say, they point out that, you know, it's just irregular because they don't want that sort of negative connotation to asylum seekers.

00:25:31.460 And that's another thing.

00:25:33.120 And I'm guilty of it.

00:25:34.400 Using the word asylum seekers, that's really not the case.

00:25:38.100 These are illegal immigrants. 0.98

00:25:39.980 These aren't people who are persecuted Christians in Iraq, who are, you know, making an asylum claim because they are persecuted.

00:25:49.580 These are people who, by and large, have landed in the United States.

00:25:55.240 Most of them have decided, you know what, I've got better luck in Canada.

00:26:00.200 I'm not even going to bother with the immigration process in the United States.

00:26:04.300 And I'm just going to wander across the border because some nitwit in fancy socks invited me to. 0.72

00:26:10.040 That's what this is all about.

00:26:12.040 They broke laws to be in the United States and they continue to break laws to be in Canada.

00:26:15.940 And then, going back to the whole legal aid issue, we pay them to fight against us.

00:26:21.040 Incredible.

00:26:21.680 Sheila, we've got to wrap it here.

00:26:23.220 And the other ominous thing is that at the end of the day, the off-the-lot price of this virtue signaling is probably going to be in the billions of dollars.

00:26:32.640 Sheila, thank you so much for joining me on this very important topic.

00:26:37.280 Great, David.

00:26:38.020 Thanks.

00:26:38.380 Have a great weekend.

00:26:39.120 You too.

00:26:39.960 And folks, keep it here.

00:26:41.000 More Rebel Roundup to come right after this.

00:26:42.900 David Menzies for the Rebel Dot Media.

00:26:52.420 Now, I'm standing in front of a building here in downtown Vancouver that used to be called the Harry Stevens Building.

00:26:59.080 It was a federal government edifice.

00:27:01.140 But just a few days ago, Harry Stevens' name was expunged from this building.

00:27:06.620 Now, Harry Stevens was a conservative member of parliament, a conservative, first elected in 1911.

00:27:12.900 And he gets the blame for turning away the Kamigata Maru ship and its passengers of almost 400 Sikh, Hindu, and Muslims back in 1914.

00:27:26.920 Now, there was already an apology issued for this chapter in Canadian history by the prime minister way back in 2016.

00:27:35.360 In fact, it was one of Justin's first apologies in his ongoing Apologypalooza tour in which he's apologized to everyone from natives to gays for incidents that date back decades or even more than a century.

00:27:52.300 And in one case, even before Canada was Canada.

00:27:55.420 Funny, though, that the rebranding didn't take part then.

00:28:00.300 I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that an election is less than three months away.

00:28:05.600 And why not make this a double apology, get it in the news, and reach out to the liberal base and show them how caring and sensitive and diverse they are.

00:28:16.160 Just when you thought Justin Trudeau was fresh out of groveling apologies and virtue-signaling rebranding schemes,

00:28:23.460 along comes this tale of consigning the name of conservative politician Harry Stevens to the scrap heap of obsolescence.

00:28:32.160 And I'm sure there are more apologies to come in the weeks ahead leading up to election day because, hey, that's just how our Justin rolls.

00:28:43.600 In any event, here's what you had to say about the latest virtue-signaling scheme, courtesy of our forever teary-eyed prime minister.

00:28:53.280 Badmojo420 writes,

00:28:55.180 In about 100 years, there will be another liberal PM apologizing for Justin Trudeau.

00:29:01.180 Well, badmojo, although I won't be around to witness such a thing.

00:29:06.100 That's an apology that I'd love to hear.

00:29:09.360 But does it have to be a liberal prime minister doing the apologizing in the year 2119?

00:29:16.040 New Patriot writes,

00:29:17.940 This isn't an apology. It is revenge, spite, and politics.

00:29:23.220 Oh, so you mean to say that this is a Gerald Butts production?

00:29:27.560 I think you might be right about that, New Patriot.

00:29:30.220 Kathy Kratz writes,

00:29:32.520 He should apologize to Canada, especially Alberta, for what he has done.

00:29:37.980 Oh, totally agree, Kathy.

00:29:39.320 But I'm sure by now you've noticed a pattern when it comes to Justin.

00:29:43.300 He apologizes for the actions of others committed a very, very long time ago.

00:29:49.440 He never apologizes for his own odious behavior in the here and now.

00:29:54.660 All Tilt writes,

00:29:56.920 I hope the next government reverses every decision Trudeau made.

00:30:01.540 He is trying to stay relevant and get his own name in history.

00:30:06.260 That is all.

00:30:07.760 Oh, I think Justin is also fishing for some cushy gig at the United Nations too, All Tilt.

00:30:13.880 But if there is indeed regime change come October 21st,

00:30:18.540 and sadly I don't think that that is necessarily a slam dunk,

00:30:23.300 the next government is going to have its hands full for the first part of its mandate,

00:30:28.800 simply implementing damage control initiatives,

00:30:32.360 given the vandalism that has been done to our great dominion in just four short years.

00:30:37.500 Three Cat Steve writes,

00:30:40.820 The far left keeps wanting to rewrite history.

00:30:44.160 Oh, indeed they do.

00:30:45.240 They say history is written by the victors,

00:30:47.420 but it is the progressives who specialize in the whitewashing of history.

00:30:53.360 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup.

00:30:55.960 Thanks so much for joining us.

00:30:57.320 See you next week.

00:30:58.100 And hey folks, never forget,

00:30:59.920 without risk, there can be no glory.

00:31:02.160 Good night.

00:31:07.500 Good night.
