00:00:00.000 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you from Guacatá, Mexico.
00:00:04.520 Now, normally I love spending a Friday interviewing your favourite rebels with their very best commentaries of the week,
00:00:10.180 but Ezra has sent me south to Mexico to meet up with the caravan that is going north,
00:00:16.560 and it's a very important story, and you can catch my reports at caravanreports.com.
00:00:22.280 That's caravanreports.com, plural.
00:00:25.080 In the meantime, check out these letters some of you sent in about a different kind of Mexican caravan
00:00:31.160 we encountered on the eve of Halloween in downtown Toronto.
00:00:34.860 See you next Friday.
00:00:43.120 Viva Mexico! Viva Mexico!
00:00:47.600 Oh my goodness, we are breaking news.
00:00:51.120 Are you part of the caravan?
00:00:54.060 Are you part of the caravan coming to America?
00:00:56.460 Yeah, for sure.
00:00:59.100 Are you from Honduras, sir?
00:01:07.420 No.
00:01:11.240 That's the best costume of the night.
00:01:13.560 We had a whole group dressed up as the Mexican caravan people. 0.61
00:01:17.680 Amazing what you see down on Adelaide.
00:01:19.800 Okay, full disclosure, folks, that wasn't the real caravan of migrants making its way to the U.S.
00:01:25.940 Rather, I was just doing a streeter in downtown Toronto regarding Halloween and cultural appropriation.
00:01:32.680 And people who looked like they could have been part of the caravan happened to meander by.
00:01:37.820 And I tried out this attempt at ad-lib humor.
00:01:41.000 In any event, here's what some of you had to say about the segment.
00:01:45.720 The Unuseful Idiot writes,
00:01:48.000 L-M-A-O, was that just a group of regular Hispanic people he said was dressed up as a Mexican caravan?
00:01:56.480 Well, Unuseful Idiot, in my defense, they were indeed chanting Viva Mexico.
00:02:01.620 And it was Halloween, not Cico de Mayo.
00:02:05.720 Tat 24 writes,
00:02:07.520 I actually spat my tea out when he asked if they were part of the caravan.
00:02:11.660 LOL, too funny.
00:02:12.740 Well, alas, Tat 24, I regret to inform you that we here at The Rebel are not responsible for any keyboard damage.
00:02:21.600 Nice Lady writes, 1.00
00:02:23.020 Why did you let the caravan go?
00:02:25.180 It probably was them.
00:02:27.560 Well, you know, Nice Lady, I think the fatal flaw in the strategy for the real caravan 0.99
00:02:32.680 is that they didn't book a flight to a U.S. municipality near the Canadian border
00:02:37.940 and then simply walk into Canada at a so-called irregular border crossing.
00:02:44.160 Not only would they be welcomed into our dominion, thanks to the Justin Trudeau liberals,
00:02:49.100 but the Royal Canadian Bellhop Police would even carry their bags.
00:02:53.180 And about Tree Friddy writes,
00:02:56.560 Viva Mexico, said the guy living safely in Canada.
00:03:00.420 You know what, Tree Friddy?
00:03:01.760 I'm going to cut him some slack.
00:03:03.760 The Trudeau liberals have made so many changes to the lyrics of O Canada
00:03:08.100 that I've been reduced to humming our national anthem rather than singing it.
00:03:14.000 Ryan Bale writes,
00:03:15.100 And better yet, Ryan, they didn't beat me like a red-headed stepchild for being so cheeky.
00:03:34.920 I guess that proves they aren't part of the real caravan after all.
00:03:38.220 And Final Battle writes,
00:03:40.160 Well, Final Battle, it could have been worse.
00:03:49.740 She didn't notice the logo for the Fat Bastard Burrito Company franchise that I was standing next to.
00:03:56.260 I think that would have really made her go cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. 1.00
00:04:00.920 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup, albeit an abbreviated one.
00:04:05.380 When I return from my Mexican assignment, we'll have a regular Rebel Roundup for you. 0.87
00:04:10.500 In the meantime, folks, don't forget to visit caravanreports.com.
00:04:15.340 That's caravanreports, plural, dot com.
00:04:18.580 And until next week, never forget, without risk, there can be no glory.
