Oh, hey, good morning, good afternoon, everybody, depending on which part of this
00:00:41.480
beautiful country that you're in. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed. You are watching our daily news and
00:00:46.780
opinion show, Rebel Roundup. And I'm joined today by my friend in beautiful Regina, Saskatchewan,
00:00:52.560
Lise Murrell. Lise, how's it going? Hello, Sheila Gunn-Reed. Well, I am on tenterhooks,
00:00:58.440
waiting for the Tamara Leach, Chris Barber verdict to come down. And I'm absolutely obsessing over
00:01:05.520
Ezra's Twitter feed right now because it's coming in second on second. And that verdict is
00:01:11.860
expected any moment now. So we will be keeping a really sharp eye on that for you, Canada. And
00:01:18.760
we'll let you know as soon as we know what happens. Yeah, I'll just read to you what Ezra
00:01:27.760
has tweeted just two minutes ago. And this is his assessment from inside the courtroom. He says,
00:01:33.740
and this is in quotation, so you know, it's not the judge, it's Ezra saying this. He says,
00:01:38.080
I have a bad feeling. I now believe that the judge will convict Tamara Leach, not for protesting or
00:01:44.180
blocking anything, and not for incendiary language as some of Barber's comments, her co-accused,
00:01:49.400
Chris Barber, who, you know, the judge did cite some of his messages and public comments,
00:01:56.560
but for being an encourager. Ezra also says, the judge emphasizes Tamara Leach saying,
00:02:03.740
hold the line. The prosecution has claimed that's an illegal statement as it's inducing mischief.
00:02:12.280
Uh, and, uh, there, it looks like the judge, and it's so strange because Ezra has been so optimistic
00:02:20.480
about, uh, Tamara's chances. Now, for those of you at home who don't know what, what's happening,
00:02:26.900
you can follow along at TamaraTrial.com. Um, and you can help offset her legal costs because
00:02:33.840
it sounds like, you know, if she is indeed convicted today, there will be an appeal. We can't
00:02:38.400
let this stand. You just hold the line does not, or should not result in a mischief conviction in
00:02:45.000
Canada's largest, most expensive mischief trial. I think it's the largest, most expensive mischief
00:02:49.420
trial, not just in Canada, but in the Commonwealth. So anyways, that's at, uh, TamaraTrial.com. So if
00:02:56.100
you're not on X and you're not following along with Ezra's post there, you can follow along there.
00:03:01.700
We'll have the news as it breaks. Um, the judge, it, this is from just a minute ago from as a judge
00:03:10.420
now reading one of Leach's Facebook posts that is all about peace and love and prayers to quote
00:03:17.920
directly, please try not to be angry, keep loving your hearts, keep fighting the good fight, and we're
00:03:24.360
going to hold the line. And Tamara was arrested the next day. So those are the words, uh, apparently
00:03:30.740
if this goes the way Ezra suspects, uh, will result in Tamara's conviction. He's, uh, no longer as
00:03:39.900
optimistic as he was just, uh, this morning. Uh, the judge says, uh, hold the line can mean different
00:03:49.440
things, but without a doubt, it was a rallying cry to remain on the streets. And Ezra says in Canada,
00:03:57.280
this is so true in Canada, you can say from the river to the sea, which is from the river, Jordan
00:04:05.120
to the Mediterranean sea, we'll wipe out the Jews. You can say from the river to the sea, the Hamas
00:04:11.640
chant to kill every Jew in Israel. You can call for intifada revolution, a violent pogrom, and police
00:04:18.260
will smile, not even smile to bring you a coffee and donuts, but say, hold the line at a peaceful
00:04:24.020
trucker protest and you'll be jailed. Yeah. So anyways, it's a sad, it's, it's a sad, well,
00:04:33.300
we know that Canada is in trouble. We, we, we already know this. Um, but I really, uh, I'm really
00:04:41.560
nervous about this, this coming down because just remember that, that the, the trucker convoy
00:04:49.820
proved to every Canadian, no matter what side of it you were on, that the media was lying
00:04:57.860
to us, the government was lying to us and it was safe to go outside and, and, and resume
00:05:02.160
our lives again. That's what it, that's what it eventually, uh, eventually proved to everyone
00:05:07.700
in Canada. And that this has been dragged out for the amount of years and, and to the tune
00:05:14.120
of millions of taxpayer dollars to come to this day, I mean, to, to say that this is going
00:05:20.640
to be monumental one way or the other is not an exaggeration. It's just not an exaggeration.
00:05:26.960
I'm just, uh, I'm just, I'm just so nervous for them right now. Yeah. This is, yeah, this
00:05:34.040
is Ezra's, uh, tweet from just seconds ago. The judge notes to Mayor Leach's call for truckers
00:05:41.080
to obey the police directions to deescalate in some neighborhoods was proof that she knew
00:05:48.160
they were breaking the law and that hold the line meant to defy the law. I think we've
00:05:53.220
got a conviction inbound here. Um, but what that means is this is not the end. So either
00:05:59.440
today was going to be the end and Tamara was free, or it would be just another step in the
00:06:05.580
fight. And I think it is just another step in the fight. Um, because this cannot stand,
00:06:12.160
you know, and as Ezra points out, the double standard that you can literally call for genocide
00:06:17.540
in the streets from the river to the sea means again, from the Mediterranean and the Jordan,
00:06:23.720
guess what exists in there? Israel. You can call for genocide on the streets and the cops
00:06:28.780
will clear the, clear the roadways for you. Um, hold the line, we'll let you in jail.
00:06:34.060
Yep. But to, to encourage people to do the right thing and to remain peaceful, uh, gets you,
00:06:41.540
gets you admonished by the, by the, it's wild. This is just wild. Um, and for everybody watching
00:06:47.260
that website, Sheila, that you quoted donating takes less than 10 seconds. I am not joking.
00:06:52.700
They have such a slick setup. You click on the website, you go to the link and it, I mean,
00:06:58.660
less than 10 seconds, uh, Canada and whatever you can contribute to, to her legal defense funds,
00:07:05.180
uh, is just so important in this moment. And so I'll be doing that today too. Yeah.
00:07:10.760
Oh, thanks buddy. Yeah. Here's the thing. Tamara Leach was the greatest political opposition
00:07:18.940
force. Trudeau had ever faced up until that time. He was more effective than any conservative
00:07:25.660
politician. She was, uh, more effective than, uh, Andrew Scheer, more effective than Aaron O'Toole
00:07:33.680
because she was just a peaceful, loving grandmother who just said enough is enough.
00:07:42.600
Yep. I'm done with this. I'm done with this. It really did. It really did shine a light on the
00:07:47.600
entire, on the entire thing. A couple of days ago, I was visiting with a, with a young guy and he's,
00:07:52.980
you know, a real mover and shaker. He was doing an internship. Uh, you know, he's, he spent the
00:07:58.420
entire, the entire, uh, COVID nightmare in Saskatchewan. Then he was doing, he went to Ottawa
00:08:05.560
at this time to do an internship. And he just, he brought his skates and he was going to skate the
00:08:12.040
riddle canal because, you know, he was like, you know, it's an, it's a solitary hobby that I could
00:08:17.720
do. And he said, and then I came across this, uh, this convoy and he said, and it was in that moment
00:08:24.920
that I realized, Oh, life can go back to normal. This is happening. Nothing bad happened. These are all
00:08:32.600
peace, loving, fun, loving Canadians that are displaying their, their love for Canada on the
00:08:40.260
streets of Ottawa. Isn't this what we should all be able to do? And he was just mortified that it had
00:08:47.060
devolved through the courts to this, to this moment that we're experiencing right now. And so, uh, just
00:08:53.480
don't, don't forget Canada. We could, we could be in a, in a place right now. Any news, Sheila, we could
00:09:00.600
be in a place right now. Uh, if it weren't for the actions. Okay, go. We've got news. Uh, they've
00:09:07.020
convicted her. So, uh, Ezra tweets 40 seconds ago, the judge says there's an absence of information
00:09:14.300
about her quote, honest belief about their conduct. The judge says, and this is a direct quote,
00:09:21.040
the crown has proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Leach and Barber have committed mischief. Now,
00:09:28.280
will she be sentenced today? I highly doubt it. If she is sentenced, I can't imagine that it's
00:09:34.060
sentenced for more than time served. She does not have a criminal record. This is a woman
00:09:39.480
who, if she had pled guilty on her very first day, would not have seen the inside of a jail cell,
00:09:45.280
but she spent 49 days in jail thanks to, uh, an illegal breach of her conditions, as in she didn't
00:09:54.460
breach her conditions, but they flew a homicide detective out to Alberta to pick her up on a
00:10:01.280
breach that never happened. And she was denied bail once. And then finally, uh, more level-headed
00:10:07.440
judge saw the evidence and said, this isn't even a breach. What is this woman doing behind bars for
00:10:13.100
a non, uh, violent offense? So, um, here we go. They cannot be said to be mere bystanders. A finding
00:10:23.620
of guilty will be made against both on account of mischief.
00:10:27.040
This is a sad day. This is a sad day, Canada. And it is, uh, it, well, it does, it just,
00:10:35.820
it just demonstrably shows what a terrible state the nation of Canada is in. Um, and this is not
00:10:46.120
going to bode well for, uh, for sentiments that support, uh, Western separation. That's it. These are two,
00:10:56.660
these are two Saskies. Uh, I know that Tamara lived in Alberta. She lived in Alberta at the time, but
00:11:04.400
these are, these are two Saskies and this is not going to be taken well by the Western provinces.
00:11:09.540
It is not, it is not. And it's funny because Tamara herself had said that she had been, she was a member
00:11:16.980
of the, I think the Maverick party. So a separatist party. And she said what renewed her love for this
00:11:23.880
country was the people of the convoy. It made her feel like the country was something worth fighting
00:11:30.380
for, that the wrongs of the politicians against us were not the collective crime of the people of
00:11:39.020
Canada. She felt like a sense of unity. And, uh, that's what everybody said that everybody said,
00:11:48.080
you know, other than a, than a small handful of very spoiled bureaucrats in Ottawa that were,
00:11:53.980
that were a tiny bit inconvenienced. Uh, this is wild. This is just wild.
00:12:02.460
Okay. So the court is breaking until 2 PM. Uh, that's Eastern. So, uh, about 50, 48 minutes from now,
00:12:13.080
Ezra will be back on with his tweets. Uh, can you just scroll up? Are they sentencing her
00:12:18.020
today? I can't imagine that they are. No, why would they? No, no, we'll drag this out further.
00:12:24.840
Um, but, uh, they are now both, uh, convicted of mischief. Uh, they can have full scale Hamas riots
00:12:33.920
on the streets of Montreal, like where police are assaulted and bottles are thrown and windows are
00:12:40.500
smashed. None of those things, by the way, happened during the freedom convoy, but are those organizers
00:12:45.920
of that riot being investigated for even mischief? Are there bank accounts being frozen to investigate
00:12:54.820
to see if Iranian money is flowing into it? None of that stuff is happening. So there's no way that
00:13:00.880
you can argue that this isn't anything but political. No. And I, and this is, this is such a
00:13:06.180
sad day for Canada because I think up until, up until the point of the freedom convoy, all Canadians
00:13:11.400
thought, well, okay, one day I'm going to visit Ottawa. It is our nation's capital. I will be able
00:13:16.800
to, you know, just, just experience, experience the, the, the nation's capital and everything that
00:13:23.360
it has to offer. And I think that this slams the door in the face of every single Canadian that ever,
00:13:28.360
ever considered visiting there. Who, who, who, who, who would risk it at this point? Who would risk it?
00:13:34.660
What they do there does not represent the rest of us. They are a, they are an unwelcoming.
00:13:40.800
Look at this. More flags than Canada Day. More flags than Canada Day. Our flag for a time
00:13:47.980
became a symbol of peaceful political resistance to government tyranny around the world. It's
00:13:54.840
something I'd never seen, you know, like during the Hong Kong freedom protests, the Hong Kong protesters
00:13:59.820
were flying American flags because of course it's the shining city on the Hill. Um, but then you saw
00:14:06.240
these satellite convoys in America and in Australia and even in Europe and the farmers protests, and they
00:14:12.840
had our flags there. It was a moment of pride for us. And just look at, look at this footage. This is
00:14:20.420
what they, this is what Mark Carney considered sedition. That's what he considered sedition. People
00:14:26.900
dancing in the streets with their Canadian flags. This is what they, look at this, look at those happy,
00:14:32.480
joyful people. This is what they considered sedition. 10 million bucks they took. Oh, this is, oh,
00:14:39.640
oh, I'm salty now. Oh, I'm salty. Know that your current prime minister, my fellow Canadians,
00:14:46.120
called that sedition. If you are a seditionist, you are by definition, a terrorist. You are by definition,
00:14:55.000
treasonous. That's what sedition means. The gall of a guy who continues to do business and enrich himself
00:15:03.900
from China behind closed doors, calling somebody like Tamara Leach, who abandoned her separatist
00:15:10.580
tendencies to fight for our country as a treasonist. No, she just didn't like what the liberals were doing.
00:15:18.260
And that counts as terrorism in this country. Look at this, terrorism. Look at, look at this. That's
00:15:24.720
what, yep. That's what they considered terrorism. Look at all the smiling, happy, dancing people.
00:15:30.540
Look at them. Just joyful to be together for the first time in years. Yeah. And where were these
00:15:35.860
people supposed to go? This is their country's capital. You want us to feel like part of this
00:15:42.760
country, but you want to ban us and our protests from the capital. Where the heck are we supposed to
00:15:49.140
go? Western Canada, this is a message to you. If you even think about visiting the nation's capital,
00:15:57.900
if you even think about, you know, talking back to the government in a way that they don't like,
00:16:02.720
this is what they will do to you. This is a lesson for all Western Canadians. It is shameful.
00:16:07.800
It is shameful what is happening. This is, I mean, I mean, it just, it just proves to us that we are
00:16:13.620
unwelcome and that we will be punished if we step out of line. Do you know what word Justin Trudeau or
00:16:21.600
even Chrystia Freeland didn't use to describe the Freedom Convoy? The people who invoked the illegal
00:16:28.120
wartime law, the Emergencies Act on bouncy castles and horn honkening and street dancing. You know what
00:16:35.740
they didn't even have the hyperbolic tendencies to use? Even they didn't use the word sedition.
00:16:45.480
Mark Carney used the word sedition. Do you think it's going to get better or worse with Mark Carney?
00:16:51.640
Yeah. Oh, and we have a chatter who points out a very, very good point. And if you guys want to have
00:16:59.580
your voices heard, please get chatting. If you want to support our work, you can do it on rumble,
00:17:05.900
leaving a rumble rant that if it's over the $5 us cutoff, we're going to do our, well, we're
00:17:10.900
obligating ourselves to read on air. If it's under that, we'll do our very best to get to it. I don't
00:17:14.960
know how much of the other news of the day we're going to get to, cause this is such a big thing.
00:17:18.700
And I think you guys are going to have lots to say. If you are watching us on YouTube,
00:17:22.020
you can leave a super chat. Now we're very recently re monetized over there. Or if you're watching the
00:17:29.080
recorded version of the show and you want to support the work that we do, because you're not
00:17:32.340
going to hear these spicy takes in the mainstream media. You can also leave us a super thanks. That's
00:17:37.660
their paid chat over there. Bill Chesney, you are brilliant for saying this. The liberals right now
00:17:45.260
are using the term, hold the line against the Trump tariffs. I guess it's only illegal when we say it.
00:17:52.020
Yeah. Yeah. But they did, they did pivot and take everything from the freedom convoy,
00:17:59.580
all of the symbols and all of the, um, all of the talking points into their elbows up campaign.
00:18:05.520
Didn't they? Didn't they? Because even the flags, right? During the convoy, they said the flag has
00:18:14.200
been overtaken by seditionists and white supremacists, blah, blah, blah, just nonsense. Right. But now
00:18:21.860
the flag, when it is co-opted for their anti-American sentiment, it's perfectly fine. It's fine to feel
00:18:28.560
proud of your country once again and say, hold the line. Uh, yeah, I guess there are certain things
00:18:35.280
that conservatives are not allowed to do in this country. Protesting being one of them. Schmengi
00:18:41.100
gives us five bucks. Stan and Yash Schmengi were the happy wanderers on Saturday or on SCTV. Um,
00:18:49.300
I have a shirt, like a, I have a fake, like tour shirt of the happy wanderers. Um, anyways,
00:18:55.000
uh, usually it's David Menzies doing the stupid pop culture trivia, but, uh, the, when it comes
00:19:01.660
to SCTV, it's me, uh, gives us five bucks and says sad day for Canada, but a good day for the
00:19:06.400
promise of Western separation. It's time for Wexit. I know a lot of people are going to feel that way
00:19:11.620
because now you have a lot of people saying, even the courts, we don't even have, uh, trust in the
00:19:19.900
courts to let us speak our minds just the way everybody else does. You know, and it's, it's so
00:19:26.540
rare by the way, sorry, I'm talking too much, but it is so rare to even see a large scale conservative
00:19:32.280
protest. Why? We are conservatives. We're hard to get going in the right direction all together
00:19:38.400
because we're individualist by nature. That's why we're not liberals. We, we don't find it easy to
00:19:43.920
chant things or hold up matching signs or like doing our own things. And we have jobs. Like we
00:19:51.300
have day jobs. All of us are busy. We're raising families. We're doing things. There's that other
00:19:55.380
whole thing. And we're not, nobody funds us to have protests. Right. Like the other side has
00:20:01.580
is deep pockets to organize in the way that they do. Exactly. So when we show up to a protest,
00:20:08.040
it is organic. It is sincere. It's genuine. And it is enough for us to shrug off all of our
00:20:15.640
individualist tendencies to show up together in one place, which is very difficult to do with
00:20:21.260
conservatives. You know, that's why like you can get a liberal to hold a sign and they don't even
00:20:25.320
read it. Like you, you go to a liberal protest, you ask them why they're there. And you're like,
00:20:29.360
what, what, what brings you out today? I don't know. What are you mad about? I'm not sure.
00:20:34.360
What is your sign? Explain your sign to me. Somebody just gave it to me. You know, like,
00:20:38.960
but you go, yeah, QP, QP gave it to me. Right. The union gave me the day off with pay. That's why
00:20:45.840
I'm here. That's how that works. But conservatives don't do that. And that's why it shook the government
00:20:51.480
to its core that we did. And, uh, I guess the message is, uh, don't get any ideas, conservatives,
00:20:59.940
if Mark Carney wins again. Oh, that's, that's exactly what they were doing. That's exactly what
00:21:06.860
they were doing. They were making sure to shut off the spigot before any more, you know, any more
00:21:12.940
freedom could pour out of the hose. That's what they did. It was a preemptive shutdown of conservative
00:21:18.760
values and ideas. And, uh, and I, I believe that it, it was successful. It was successful. You will,
00:21:27.220
you will not see another movement like that. That was a once in a lifetime moment. Um, and because
00:21:32.980
of this ruling that just came in, uh, Tamera, just if, if you're just joining us, Tamera Leach and
00:21:38.040
Chris Barber were found, uh, were convicted of mischief. Yeah. We're convicted of mischief just now.
00:21:44.560
So, um, you won't see another moment like that in Canada, but just like Schmengi says, there are
00:21:51.220
other things on the horizon and we, we got to, uh, start looking at all of our options, Western Canada.
00:21:57.220
Uh, there's also, you know, uh, court will now break, but says there are 30 more pages for her to go
00:22:06.300
through. Wow. Just wow. Uh, we've got a 279 from Alex Greer. Alex, I don't see a chat there. Uh, maybe
00:22:17.560
if the team behind the scenes can see the, if, if the chat didn't attach, if you find that, that would
00:22:24.180
be great. Gank 01 gives us five bucks. One of the worst days in Canadian history I've witnessed since
00:22:29.700
1970. I fear we're finished. You know, if I had to guess, and I, if, if I had to guess how Tamera
00:22:40.140
Leach is feeling right now, uh, I don't think it is demoralized. And I actually don't think that she
00:22:45.780
would want us to be demoralized. You know, she's a woman of, of peaceful language and she encourages
00:22:53.500
at all times unity. She's sort of forgiving even of her enemies. She's got more of that, um,
00:22:59.980
Christian heart for her enemies than I do. I realized that grace. And I don't think that she
00:23:07.060
would, I think she would probably be okay with us being angry, but I don't think that she would want
00:23:12.980
us to be broken and demoralized. And if I know Tamera Leach and I do a little bit, I feel like
00:23:19.820
she's willing to take the fight to them again, because, uh, uh, I mean, this just cannot stand.
00:23:26.040
This means that you cannot go to your nation's Capitol and protest government policy.
00:23:31.380
What, what, what options? Yeah. What options have they left her though? What options have they left
00:23:37.040
her other than to, to keep fighting? They haven't given her any, as a matter of fact,
00:23:42.740
uh, the courts have shown that they have no grace. Our federal government has shown that they have
00:23:48.300
no grace. Mark Carney is absolutely devoid of grace. And so if you're looking for the leader here,
00:23:54.080
she's going to, I mean, at the end of the day, at the end of the day, Chris, Barbara, and Tamera Leach
00:23:59.520
are going to be considered heroes. The end, uh, regardless of, because sometimes, sometimes the powers
00:24:07.060
that be get it entirely wrong. Okay. They get it entirely wrong and history will not, uh, history
00:24:15.560
will not judge them kindly. I don't think at the end of the day, Tamera Leach and Chris, Barbara will
00:24:20.080
be, will be considered heroes for what they did in that moment and for, and for what they're having
00:24:26.220
to endure right now. And just let's talk about the strained resources in Ottawa, in the court system
00:24:35.260
there, uh, Carter applications, you know, uh, if you are a victim of a real crime in Ottawa, in Canada,
00:24:47.200
you know that your path to even a little bit of justice is long and winding and it might dead end
00:24:54.520
because sometimes the people who have committed crimes against you get off because they can't get
00:25:04.280
to trial quickly enough because the courts are bunged up with nuisance stuff and sometimes not
00:25:10.580
even nuisance stuff. And this is Justin Trudeau and now Mark Carney's Canada. Violent crime is
00:25:17.340
skyrocketing. Ignored, ignored. It's ignored by the courts, ignored. Right. And they spend,
00:25:24.500
I'm guessing best estimates, $10 million going after a peaceful grandmother who is now being
00:25:31.640
quite literally convicted of mischief and spent 49 days in jail for what? According to the judge,
00:25:38.460
her crime was saying, hold the line. Isn't that wild? That was incitement. Isn't that wild?
00:25:44.480
I mean, there, there are, there are, they don't put, they don't put this much effort into,
00:25:51.740
into child abuse cases. They don't put this much effort into murders, into really, really terrible
00:25:58.460
crimes. And, and yet this is where we, this is where we're at Canada and make no mistake. Don't
00:26:04.500
ever, ever forget that those are your tax dollars that paid for this prosecution. Those are your tax,
00:26:10.380
you paid this Canada out of, out of, out of your pockets to prosecute this, this trial. It is crazy
00:26:21.880
what's happened. It is insane. Like real criminals are walking free, not because they were innocent,
00:26:29.540
but because they are because of a Jordan ruling. So Jordan ruling means that you cannot have
00:26:39.520
unreasonable delays to getting to trial and unreasonable delays can occur because there are
00:26:47.480
no court resources that just, there aren't enough courtrooms, there aren't enough prosecutors.
00:26:54.980
And so bad guys get to go free and they get to do it again because they are entitled to have their
00:27:02.360
cases heard in a timely fashion. So imagine you are the victim of violence in Ottawa. Maybe your bad guy
00:27:11.240
gets off, um, thanks to the benefit of, uh, uh, the Jordan framework and, uh, and you have to look
00:27:21.200
at the resources that they threw at a peaceful grandmother who said, hold the line.
00:27:25.100
A hundred percent. Um, last, last month in Saskatchewan, there was a mass murder on one of
00:27:30.140
our first nations. Four people were killed, uh, in a, in a brutal fashion, I understand. And one of the
00:27:37.440
guys that was charged with a part of the crime. So whether he was, he was an accessory or something,
00:27:42.620
he was just rearrested again on driving under the influence charges and breach, breach of his
00:27:49.380
conditions, but he was out. He was out Canada. Like here's a man who was involved in a, in a,
00:27:57.060
in a mass killing and he was out awaiting, awaiting the, the trial. It is insane. This is just upside
00:28:06.280
down worlds. Like every day I think to myself, uh, okay, it can't get any worse than the day before.
00:28:11.740
And then something like this happens and I go, what? Nope. Nope. Look how terrible it is.
00:28:16.380
Everything is broken. Everything is broken here. Holy Hannah. I just can't get, I'm just,
00:28:22.960
well, this is going to set the tone, I think for this election, especially in Western Canada.
00:28:29.420
Yeah. Yeah. You, Mark Carney, you accused a peaceful grandmother of being a terrorist,
00:28:36.980
being a seditionist, being treasonous. Why don't you took a $250 million loan from an evil country
00:28:50.300
that just, just executed for Canadians? I believe that phone call is coming from inside the house.
00:28:57.040
Yeah. Oh, that's, that's, uh, that would be inconvenient for him to, uh, for him to hold the
00:29:05.280
bag on. Don't you think, Sheila? Yeah. That'd be real inconvenient for Mark Carney if more people
00:29:10.460
were to know about that. So go on and make sure you share, share that far and wide Canada.
00:29:15.660
This is a man that, yeah, accused, accused those peaceful truckers of sedition.
00:29:21.240
Sedition. And then made a backdoor deal with China. That's what happened.
00:29:25.140
And kept his Chinese, uh, kidnapper candidate on until the Chinese kidnapper resigned himself.
00:29:34.400
Apparently he learned his lesson, but what lesson was that? We don't even know. Uh, we've got, uh,
00:29:39.640
Daniel Nardone gives us five bucks and says two years, less a day, provincial custodial sentence
00:29:45.360
or time already served. I, I can't imagine they're going to give her anything more than time served,
00:29:53.400
but, uh, I was optimistic today and in weeks gone by that, uh, she would not be convicted.
00:30:01.540
Yeah. And, uh, and they just keep finding ways to, to disappoint us, Canada, and show us that this
00:30:09.240
is, this is completely broken, this whole thing. They just keep finding new ways to prove it.
00:30:16.340
Kat barks 68 gives us 10 bucks and says, first, I want to thank Tamara and Chris for all they've
00:30:21.980
sacrificed for Canadians. And now the West must exit this country. I think a lot of people today feel
00:30:27.960
that way. Uh, there are a lot of Westerners who are reluctant to give up on Canada. Um, and, uh, this,
00:30:40.380
this basically says if we, if a, if a movement foments in the West to help the rest of the country
00:30:48.240
and the rest of the country goes along, the federal government and the court system will do everything
00:30:54.220
it can to drive us apart and make sure it never happens again.
00:30:57.760
Well, uh, I think that this, this ruling proves to the people in the West that, you know, we didn't
00:31:06.980
give up on Canada. Canada gave up on us. Yeah. Yes. Now, uh, maybe we'll move along. It's been a half
00:31:17.780
an hour of this. Um, although I could probably dedicate the whole show to this. Oh, we could be
00:31:23.120
here for six hours, Sheila. We could be here for six hours. These comments are incredible guys. Please
00:31:28.360
keep them coming. Um, yeah. Yeah. Uh, well, this is a changing day in Canada. Yeah. I guess we should
00:31:37.880
be grateful to, to be able to witness it. Yeah. Do you know what? This is laid bare. And I know Tamara
00:31:45.440
is always, uh, she's an optimist and, uh, even it, the day before the night before the night of her
00:31:53.340
rest, she's still called for peace. She's still called for calm. Uh, and I know that she is a
00:31:59.420
believer that God uses all things for his means in the end. And, uh, uh, this is not the end,
00:32:06.020
not for Tamara and not for the fight. So let this continue to keep the fire burning in the pit of
00:32:12.860
your stomach of Liberty. Uh, I know it does for me. What's that website again? What's the, what's
00:32:18.820
Tamara trial.com? Yeah. Everybody make a mental note. We're going to head on over there after
00:32:25.860
this. We're not done. Look at this. She went and turned herself over by the way. She never
00:32:30.920
look at smiling as a teeny, teeny, tiny woman. I'm not a big woman. And she looks like a garden gnome
00:32:40.000
beside me, but up against, you know, that teeny tiny woman who did nothing, but who did nothing,
00:32:46.960
but, uh, call for common peace up against the entire weight of the federal government.
00:32:55.860
Courage is contagious, Canada. Courage is contagious. And that's exactly what it looks like.
00:33:00.220
Yeah. That's the moral of the convoy, isn't it? The courage was contagious. It is contagious.
00:33:05.040
Good for her. Yeah. Well, Tamara, Chris, we're thinking about you guys and yeah, Tamara trial is
00:33:12.380
where we're all good ahead after this. Right. And just to Mary and Chris, if you're, if, if you're
00:33:19.060
watching later, I imagine you're not watching right now, but just let me say on behalf of my family and
00:33:25.620
everybody that I care to know, uh, thank you. None of this has been easy on you. I know it's been
00:33:32.780
difficult on your families cause turmoil and heartache and strife and stress. Uh, but thank you.
00:33:38.820
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Oh, okay. Uh, let's move on. Cause, uh, last night, yesterday, after we, uh, stopped
00:33:52.380
streaming, the tariffs came, uh, let's just go into the video, you guys of president Trump announcing
00:33:59.560
the 25% tariffs on cars imported into the United States.
00:34:03.780
Toyota sells 1 million foreign made automobiles into the United States and General Motors sells
00:34:13.780
almost none. Ford sells very little. None of our companies are allowed to go into other countries.
00:34:21.720
And I say that friend and foe. And in many cases, the friend is worse than the foe in terms of trade,
00:34:27.640
but such horrendous imbalances have devastated our industrial base and put our national security at
00:34:35.580
risk. I don't blame these other countries at all for this calamity. I blame former presidents and
00:34:41.000
past leaders who weren't doing their job. They let it happen. And they let it happen to an extent that
00:34:46.240
nobody can even believe. That's why effective at midnight, we will impose a 25% tariff on all foreign
00:34:52.860
made automobiles. He wants that manufacturing sector back pretty bad. Sure does. Uh, now we've got
00:35:10.620
Mark Carney responding to this, uh, the videos from Juno news, Mark Carney, who said, Oh, he had, uh,
00:35:21.980
all kinds of successful talks with president Trump. And don't worry, he really stuck it to the man.
00:35:27.460
Uh, well, you still got tariffs on steel, aluminum and cars. So it wasn't that big win. The media wanted
00:35:35.080
it, wanted us all to believe actually the only winner in all of this is, uh, Daniel Smith. But anyways,
00:35:39.980
let's hear it from the undertaker himself. President Trump has just announced a series of measures that
00:35:47.940
are going to fundamentally change the international trading system. Now in doing so, he has preserved
00:35:58.340
a number of important elements of our relationship, uh, the commercial relationship between Canada and
00:36:04.240
the United States, but the fentanyl tariffs still remain in place as do the tariffs for steel and
00:36:12.300
aluminum. As of this evening, uh, the tariffs on automobiles will enter into force. And the U S has
00:36:20.200
signaled that there will be additional tariffs in so-called strategic sectors, pharmaceuticals, lumber,
00:36:28.680
and, uh, and, uh, and semiconductors. So we're in a situation where there is going to be an impact on
00:36:40.280
the U S economy, which will build with time and our judgment, it will be negative on the U S economy
00:36:45.000
that will have an impact on us, but the series of measures will directly affect millions of Canadians.
00:36:52.320
We are going to fight these tariffs with countermeasures. We are going to protect our workers
00:37:01.700
and we are going to build the strongest economy in the G7. In a crisis, it's important to come together
00:37:14.080
and it's essential to act with purpose and with force. And that's what we will do.
00:37:21.620
How bored are you listening to that? Like the economy is going to collapse in the Eastern part
00:37:26.760
of this country. And I'm just bored of listening to it from him.
00:37:32.840
He is, uh, he is, well, I've seen corpses with more charisma. Okay. I've seen corpses with more.
00:37:40.160
He has no riz. He has zero riz. Uh, but it sounds as though it's mostly going to be Ontario that is
00:37:49.320
suffering the greatest impact from the tariffs coming out of the U S so steel, aluminum, and car
00:37:58.820
manufacturing. Well, what is Ontario's, uh, business case? It is steel, aluminum, and car manufacturing.
00:38:06.540
And you got to ask yourself, is what Doug Ford did impacting how America is now treating Ontario?
00:38:16.700
And I would argue, yes, because, uh, Alberta, Danielle Smith, God bless her. Um, Danielle Smith avoided
00:38:25.380
any further reciprocal tariffs as did, uh, as did the majority of the provinces, but as it pertains to
00:38:32.980
cars. And, and I, I think that it's, yeah, it's prudent to point out that 25% on, um, 25% on vehicles
00:38:41.020
is across the board. It's a global tariff that Trump put on, but it disproportionately, uh, impacts
00:38:47.200
Ontario. So, uh, again, was Doug Ford's, was Doug Ford's, uh, antagonistic approach,
00:38:56.740
the right approach, or was Danielle Smith's good neighbor diplomatic approach, the right approach?
00:39:03.800
And I think we have our answer, Canada. I think we have our answer.
00:39:07.700
Yeah. I want to hear from the lefty scolds who freaked out because Danielle Smith went to a Prager
00:39:13.500
U event and all of a sudden became fiscal conservatives about the charging the taxpayer
00:39:17.940
for the trip down there. Uh, what do you think? What do you think now guys? Uh, Mark Carney should have
00:39:25.580
went to that Prager event. Honestly, if he gave a rip about this country, he would have been speaking
00:39:30.880
directly to Trump's base. He didn't do that at all. In fact, he's recruiting anti-Trump lunatics
00:39:36.920
to run for the party. Uh, not Lee NDP leftovers who spoke at anti-Trump events are now being recruited
00:39:46.300
to run as liberal party candidates in a rare stroke of honesty where they're showing us the NDP and the
00:39:52.760
liberals are really indistinguishable from each other. So, uh, whose approach is most effective?
00:39:59.560
I guess the proof is in the pudding, isn't it? It really truly is. Yeah. And again, if Mark Carney
00:40:05.420
had any interest in advocating for a good relationship, he would not have jetted off to
00:40:10.960
Europe as his first act of installed prime minister of Canada. He would have been burning across the
00:40:18.400
border on the first bus to Washington to talk to the movers and shakers, just like Danielle Smith did.
00:40:23.740
Um, and, and many, many of, of the other premiers I might add. Uh, uh, but he did not. He went to
00:40:29.820
Europe to hobnob with his, with his old friends in the UK. And, uh, and, uh, yeah, it looks like that
00:40:38.060
backfire too, Mark. Well done. Yeah. This is what we get for, uh, the liberals installing a pseudo-European
00:40:47.780
aristocrat bankster as prime minister. Uh, yes. Mark Carney now has basically said our economic
00:40:55.940
relationship with the Americans is finito. Uh, maybe we should have that discussion after an election.
00:41:04.400
Give Canadians a say here, buddy. Uh, we've got this new clip from, uh, I guess this is live from
00:41:12.760
the Mord with Mark Carney. You said previously that the relationship that Canada had with the
00:41:20.240
United States is now over. Uh, is the U.S. still our ally? The U.S. Absolutely. Look, the U.S. is
00:41:27.020
absolutely our ally. It's our ally in security and defense partnerships. It's, uh, it's our most
00:41:31.920
important, uh, security ally, for example. It's still, even with these tariffs, the largest trading
00:41:36.740
partners. The point I made last week, uh, the point I made again today is part of what our relationship
00:41:43.680
has been based on, though has been a degree of integration between our economies, our trade
00:41:50.000
becoming closer and closer together. That is over. I mean, we saw that that was ending a while ago.
00:41:56.040
It's now emphatic. I think the world is learning that that is over. That creates real challenges
00:42:02.160
for us. We're not sugarcoating it. We're absolutely clear about that. It also, though, creates an
00:42:08.320
enormous opportunity for a country like Canada, which has virtually everything that the world
00:42:13.620
wants, has a lot of things that the U.S. wants, and they're going to find out how much they want
00:42:17.600
with these tariffs. So we have virtually everything the world wants. And when I talk to leaders in
00:42:22.380
Europe, when I talk to, uh, the Mexican president, uh, they want to work with us. They want to
00:42:29.500
cooperate with us. And I'll say one other thing, if I may, and then hand, um, which is, uh, one of
00:42:35.500
the things, and I'll go back to Team Canada, uh, Premier Smith, Premier Mo, uh, Monsieur le Premier
00:42:41.020
ministre, Legault, all of those premiers in the very short term either have just gone on major trade
00:42:46.540
initiatives to, uh, to Europe in some cases, or, uh, about to go to, uh, trade missions, uh, in Asia.
00:42:53.500
That's the Team Canada approach. That's the coordinated approach that we need. And I think
00:42:58.220
Canadians, again, not sugarcoating the challenges, but can be very encouraged about the sense of
00:43:03.300
purpose and action at different levels, uh, to move forward.
00:43:06.000
Okay. So a bunch of well-heeled liberals are getting on a bunch of million dollar jets to
00:43:13.800
fly around the world, to have in-person meetings with Asia and Europe, instead of hopping on a bus
00:43:21.400
and getting over to Washington and fixing the issue that they created to begin. Oh, good.
00:43:26.780
Oh, good. Oh, perfect. Like who asked them or gave them permission to do this on, on our behalf,
00:43:31.920
Canada? And the answer is absolutely nobody, nobody. They should be doing no negotiation with
00:43:38.080
any country right now, up until the election. This is craziness. This is crazy. And yeah,
00:43:44.720
he said, he said the world has the, the world is interested in, in Canadian products. Yeah,
00:43:51.760
they were. Remember when Japan came begging for our, uh, LNG, LNG, that's right. Germany came begging for our,
00:43:59.580
for light natural get what it, yeah. LNG. Yeah. Yeah. Um, and we told them no, and to go away.
00:44:05.600
This is the same party that is now going overseas to try and whip up those markets again. You idiots.
00:44:12.180
But Trump has already signed those deals that we didn't with them. So not, not only did Japan come
00:44:19.320
once, twice, I think it was three times. In fact, the last time Japan came, the liberals didn't even
00:44:25.080
mention that Japan raised the issue of LNG, liquefied natural gas with them again. They just
00:44:33.520
didn't mention it. What I did is I got the readout from the Japanese and it shows that very recently,
00:44:40.520
uh, in their last meeting with prime minister, Justin Trudeau, they once again, raised the issue
00:44:46.300
of buying liquefied natural gas from Canada. Of course, it would go by way of British Columbia.
00:44:51.320
They said, no. In fact, it wasn't even worth even writing down in the readout on the Canadian side.
00:44:58.080
And then Donald Trump is like, well, if they're not going to sell it to you, we'll definitely sell
00:45:01.740
it to you. So not only do, have we turned these people down repeatedly, but they're not buyers of
00:45:08.640
our stuff anymore because they've signed other deals with the Americans.
00:45:13.600
So we're, so we're paying for, so we're paying for a bunch of bureaucrats to go to these markets,
00:45:20.180
to beg them to beg us again. And they're going to tell, okay, so we're just paying for, we're just
00:45:26.020
paying for vacations for liberal bureaucrats to travel around the world until the election. Oh, good.
00:45:30.880
Yes, exactly. Now, someone who understands the urgency of this, um, is Pierre Polyev,
00:45:38.740
who did not say that his first job once he becomes prime minister is to gallivant through Europe, uh,
00:45:46.440
on a victory tour. He said he's headed to Washington to immediately start dealing with
00:45:51.880
the trade issues with the Americans, including ripping open a trade deal. The Americans say
00:45:59.340
I will push hard to end the tariff madness. On my first day on the job as prime minister,
00:46:07.600
I will call the president and demand that we rapidly renegotiate the Kuzma agreement on a very tight
00:46:17.700
timeline. That will allow us to find certainty. I will also propose that in the meantime, both sides
00:46:26.580
suspend tariffs. To be clear, no counter tariffs from Canada will be removed unless and until the
00:46:33.060
Americans do the same. But the argument to President Trump will be this. Put aside the
00:46:38.960
uncertainty, the job loss and stock market crashes on both sides of the border. Pause the tariffs
00:46:46.440
until we can hammer out a deal. Now that deal will have to be in the Canadian interest. First and
00:46:53.320
foremost, we will protect Canadian sovereignty. Certain things will be non-negotiable. We will
00:46:59.800
protect our land, our water, our laws, our government, our culture, our language policies,
00:47:08.980
and our borders will always be exclusively under our control. Second, we will demand an end to all
00:47:17.320
tariffs, free trade, both ways. But third, we believe we can convince the Americans it's in their national
00:47:25.540
and security interest to get a deal. Because we will use all the proceeds of that deal, all of the
00:47:31.700
economic benefits that flow into the federal coppers to massively rebuild our military so that we can
00:47:38.800
carry our weight and keep our continent safe. This will create a powerful incentive for Americans to say yes, but of
00:47:47.520
course, there's no guarantee with Trump. As we're learning, nobody in Canada can control Donald Trump, contrary to
00:47:57.280
many of the suggestions and the unrealistic expectations that some have been setting. Which is why I have to make clear, and I will be making clear to President Trump, that
00:48:04.800
any commitments we make that America wants to happen on defense, border cooperation or market access, can and will be
00:48:15.520
instantaneously withdrawn if he violates any part of the agreement. We will only uphold our side of the bargain as long as he holds up his side of the bargain.
00:48:29.520
That's how we create the leverage to protect against a president who changes his mind and breaks his word.
00:48:37.520
Still, no one can control President Trump, and no one can predict what he will do. The only thing we can control is what we do here at home.
00:48:45.520
And that's why the best way to stand up to President Trump is to make our economy stronger and more independent from the Americans.
00:48:51.520
The economic plan I've been announcing throughout this election is to unleash our industry, to make it strong, self-reliant,
00:48:59.520
sovereign, so that we can stand on our own two feet and stand up to President Trump.
00:49:07.280
Okay. I mean, he's got a campaign in Ontario and Quebec, so you have to sort of campaign to those people.
00:49:13.520
He hasn't even been out West yet, and we're like two weeks into the campaign. I feel like it's not worth coming here because we're already voting for him.
00:49:19.520
But I get it. But he is making a point that if we are getting, as they call them, fentanyl tariffs, we need to be talking about the border and security, which he is.
00:49:35.520
Yep. And our hug the thug justice system right now that are letting people out, you know, in the front door of the courthouse, out the back door of the courthouse, and they're back on the streets the same afternoon.
00:49:49.520
We do have to, we do, there are so, so many things that Canada has to clean house on.
00:49:56.520
And I think that nobody is more aware of this than Pierre Polyev in this moment.
00:50:01.520
And, and I'm so happy that you said, Sheila, that, that he was campaigning in Ontario there, because that's the thing that I, that I, that as a Westerner, I must remember my say yes.
00:50:12.520
Yes. Yeah. Oh, you've got to view it through the lens of an Easterner. But, but I think that that also illustrates the fundamental difference between Eastern Canadians and Western Canadians.
00:50:24.520
Western Canadians, we just see, see things through a different set of glasses, I suppose.
00:50:31.240
You know what, on that note, and I know it's not on the list, but Olivia, if you wouldn't mind, while we're watching, this hour has 22 minutes, just on the whole point of two different lenses.
00:50:43.060
Let's look at the agriculture sector through two different lenses, one through, uh, unquoted farmers, and another through Mark Carney's eyes.
00:50:54.460
If you look on his, on his X page yesterday, he talks about meeting with dairy farmers and blah, blah, blah.
00:51:02.000
It's like everybody from the West is like, ahem, kind of what?
00:51:09.640
Uh, let's watch this. This hour has 22 minutes skit. If you haven't seen this, I don't blame you. Nobody watches this hour has 22 minutes.
00:51:19.540
Um, but they did their take on the Carney, Mike Myers skit that, uh, also was completely boring and unwatchable and gave this like completely shallow take of what it actually means to be a Canadian.
00:51:34.380
Cause the liberals have actually never thought about that. Um, and this is supposed to be Pierre Polyev.
00:51:56.120
It's celebrity sweetheart Mike Myers also at the rink to endorse me.
00:52:06.340
Just like my face without glasses will force this to work.
00:52:18.040
But you probably know some famous Canadian things.
00:52:38.720
And finally, the name of Mr. Dress-Up's two puppet helpers.
00:52:46.180
Well, Michael Myers, thank you for endorsing me.
00:52:56.980
Yeah, I don't really, don't really understand the phrase either, so.
00:53:07.080
Oh, you're sneaky like Mark Carney, aren't you?
00:53:15.440
Really, uh, really lurking behind me there, aren't you?
00:53:35.180
Like, that was supposed to be funny, by the way.
00:53:42.260
Well, and that actor might have the most smackable face in the entire nation of Canada.
00:53:47.640
Sorry, the whole time, oh, oh, that face is just, just smackable.
00:53:53.960
No, the whole thing, the whole thing was painfully unfunny.
00:53:56.900
And just remember that we pay those, those people.
00:54:02.420
Almost $2 billion a year to produce that level of garbage.
00:54:08.120
But I'm sure that it, I'm sure that it does appeal to a certain Karen subset of, of Liberal
00:54:15.160
Party supporters that would just think that that's the most brilliant thing they've ever
00:54:21.940
You know, as Joe Warmington rightly points out, and Joe is a gem, just a gem at the Toronto
00:54:30.180
These, this is supposed to appeal to the same people who were mortally offended in their
00:54:36.380
ovaries because, and if you're a man also for everybody else's ovaries, if you listened
00:54:44.520
to Pierre Polyev, note the biological reality that you do have a ticking clock on your ability
00:54:53.220
And this, like, a skit where the conservative leader is murdered by a serial killer, albeit
00:55:02.080
a fictional one, that's supposed to appeal to the perpetually offended people who don't
00:55:11.220
And again, the worst crime here is that it was A, unfunny, and B, we paid for it.
00:55:26.160
I'm just, I wonder, I don't know if I can find out how much this whole thing cost, but
00:55:33.160
Oh, the levels of producers and executive producers and writers and cinematographers and music,
00:55:40.960
oh, they would have written custom music and they would have had to rent out land acknowledgments
00:55:46.700
and oh, the DEI quotas that they would have had to have invested into for you to be entertained
00:55:57.980
Can you imagine the hysteria of the left if it were Mike Myers, serial killer Mike Myers
00:56:11.280
I mean, there would be people in holding cells.
00:56:19.780
They would scream at the top of their Karen lungs.
00:56:25.080
Well, there's a popular saying that goes like, the left can't meme.
00:56:35.480
I mean, this was just a perfect example of the quality of the CBC.
00:56:39.960
You can't find humor in things if you are by nature perpetually offended.
00:56:50.100
And then, Olivia, should we hit a Rebel News ad break?
00:56:52.320
We'll come back with Polyev on Ben Mulrooney's podcast.
00:57:00.260
But if you were by chance able to bring up Mark Carney's tweets on meeting with the quota
00:57:06.040
farmers, yes, okay, supply management is part of our economic sovereignty when it comes
00:57:11.960
to negotiations with Trump's, it's off the table.
00:57:16.240
And then, like, all the replies and all the quotes are just Western farmers, the non-supply
00:57:22.420
managed farmers, the beef producers, so the other end of the cattle are just, like, livid
00:57:30.320
The grain growers in Saskatchewan are going wild about this.
00:57:38.060
Beef producers, canola farmers, everybody else is like, okay, but you haven't even said
00:57:46.580
I guess you don't want that $250 million loan recalled, I guess.
00:57:59.800
I mean, the best part about X is running to the comment section after they post something
00:58:08.140
I put on my shoes and I just run to the comment section to see what's going on.
00:58:18.540
Don't you dare talk to a canola farmer who's got 100% tariffs because of the Liberals' protectionism
00:58:31.220
Supply management Canada is why we pay the prices we do on milk and cheese and dairy in
00:58:38.140
And so look at them protecting the high prices.
00:58:47.800
And it's also why we have so few interesting cheeses in this country.
00:58:53.820
My buddy Mike, Mike from Freedom Honey, gives us five bucks and says there is no justice.
00:58:59.840
Not right now, but I think I firmly believe one day.
00:59:10.900
His carny looks like Frankenstein, sounds dead on his feet, uses the same speech as Justin
00:59:20.260
He means unionized workers and public sector union workers.
00:59:35.960
We've got a script here from our friends at 5G Free.
00:59:38.960
I want to talk about the things that people are afraid to say out loud.
00:59:43.260
Meanwhile, we have Russian ships off the coast of Florida and full-blown wars in Ukraine
00:59:49.380
And I should preface that by saying it wasn't Biden.
00:59:52.220
If you saw pictures of him during the lead up to the election, he was like collapsed in a chair
00:59:57.540
on the beach just, I don't know if he was awake, catching flies anyways.
01:00:02.360
The world was at its most unstable point since World War II.
01:00:05.160
And with nuclear weapons, the stakes are 10 times higher.
01:00:09.060
Every prepper needs to have RadioGuard Ace, the only FDA-approved drug to treat radioactive
01:00:14.560
Until now, that's why Rumble partnered with 5G Free, the only company in the world that
01:00:18.420
has a supply of RadioGuard Ace and the ability to prescribe it prophylactically.
01:00:23.320
Get their radiation emergency kit with RadioGuard Ace, potassium iodide, Zofran, and Geiger
01:00:27.960
There's simply no other tool in your arsenal to protect against a radioactive threat.
01:00:31.840
Go to 5Gfree.com code studio to save 50% off your radiation kit now.
01:00:39.540
And we'll come back and we'll finish up the last little bits of the show.
01:00:42.480
So I got to talk about the NDP Jagmeet Singh with that woman.
01:00:52.540
To use a phrase from our friend, the recently fired Rachel Gilmore, I've got big feelings
01:01:01.920
Anyways, let's hit an ad break and we'll be right back.
01:01:05.340
What if governments are trying to reinvent the wheel when the greatest teacher of all
01:01:10.820
times has already laid out the perfect blueprint for a constitution for a kingdom of love,
01:01:19.940
Introducing the Kingdom of Heaven Freedom Passport.
01:01:23.560
This special edition Freedom Passport captures the foundational truths of love, ethics, and
01:01:30.960
It's a powerful reminder of Jesus' call to love one another and to be part of something
01:01:38.840
Join the movement, share the truth, and spread the love with your family and friends.
01:01:44.880

01:01:50.000
And right now, all orders in North America come with free shipping and a free downloadable
01:01:58.000
Why should you join Canada's National Firearms Association?
01:02:01.940
We currently have one of the most aggressively anti-firearm governments in our nation's history,
01:02:08.880
promoting fear and placing blame like never before.
01:02:12.540
Our rights, freedoms, culture, and heritage, it's all on the line.
01:02:17.960
But we are fighting back, and there is strength in numbers.
01:02:21.640
We work within the law to change the law, to defend competitors, hunters, collectors, and
01:02:50.160
I want to talk about a couple of different things, and then we'll go into Jagmeet Singh's
01:02:57.960
Just the more I think about it, the just wilder it becomes to me.
01:03:03.420
But yesterday, as we were saying, hey, Pierre Polyev, you should do more long-form sit-downs
01:03:12.500
He literally was, as we were saying it, on air with Ben Mulroney.
01:03:21.280
And so Polyev clarified his security clearance non-issue, because everyone's like, why doesn't
01:03:27.980
he get the security clearance so that he can get these high-level briefings?
01:03:31.820
First of all, there are other people within the party, especially during the writ period,
01:03:38.040
So they communicate with the elections officials and security officials on foreign interference
01:03:44.560
That was made clear during the Foreign Interference Commission that if the leader takes it, he
01:03:53.160
And if foreign interference is a huge issue in the election, spoiler alert, it is, then you
01:03:59.600
want to be able to talk about it, especially if the foreign interference problem is in the
01:04:05.260
But they have officials within the party who are briefed on this, who they can deal with
01:04:11.200
it during the campaign on these high-level issues.
01:04:14.320
So Polyev was asked about it again, because this is like the dumbest liberal talking point,
01:04:20.720
and it only appeals to the stupidest of people, he answered it again.
01:04:27.720
Explain once and for all the situation with your security clearance.
01:04:33.660
Well, first of all, I've already had a clearance.
01:04:35.820
I was a minister in a cabinet, so I've already been cleared.
01:04:38.940
Secondly, what the liberals have been trying to get me to do is sign an oath of secrecy so
01:04:43.900
that I can't speak publicly about foreign interference without their permission to get locked
01:04:50.900
in to an oath of confidentiality, so that when an issue of foreign interference comes
01:04:57.180
up, I have to risk criminal prosecution if I say something the government considers that
01:05:03.560
it has briefed me on, even if I might have said it anyway.
01:05:06.940
Again, for the millionth time, he's not going to gag himself over issues of national interest
01:05:16.980
in a campaign where foreign interference is playing an oversized role in our conversations.
01:05:28.220
There are people that have it within the party.
01:05:31.760
And he's keeping the liberals honest by not abiding by their gag orders.
01:05:42.920
If your enemy says, sign this thing so that you can't talk about our misdeeds, would you
01:05:55.800
They have party officials who are briefed, who have the clearance, they can deal with stuff
01:06:03.860
And I think I'm real grateful that he didn't take that secrecy oath, given that there was
01:06:09.380
an inducement to kidnap and ransom to the Chinese in Mark Carney's party.
01:06:20.320
But further to our conversation yesterday about going on a podcast, although I appreciate
01:06:27.900
Ben Mulroney works in terrestrial radio, which is where I came from.
01:06:33.320
The countdown clock on terrestrial radio is so rigid.
01:06:40.620
So I would like to see, again, Pierre Polyev doing open-ended podcasts with no timelines,
01:06:46.920
no set topic list, no on or off topics or things that you can or can't talk about.
01:06:53.940
I would still like to see him do those long-form podcasts.
01:06:58.640
That is what the people of Canada are thirsty for.
01:07:01.480
And that's where we'll get to know the real Pierre Polyev.
01:07:03.720
Quick video just on the hypocrisy of the Green Party.
01:07:16.760
Now, I'm not sure what the militia is going to be armed with, and I'll get to that in a
01:07:21.100
second, but, uh, like, again, yes, there's a woman that I wouldn't let near a pal or an
01:07:31.060
Um, and again, I remain increasingly surprised that there was a co-leader of the liberals
01:07:46.220
Canada is no longer safe in the ways that it used to be.
01:07:50.500
The post-war assumptions about safety, about proximity to a superpower that could always
01:07:59.740
That's why today I'm proud to announce a bold new plan from the Green Party of Canada, a plan
01:08:16.560
Our people, ensuring that we are ready to face fire, floods, cyber attacks, or foreign
01:08:24.280
We're proposing to create the 120,000 strong National Civil Defense Corps with well-paid
01:08:32.620
jobs and priority hire for oil and gas workers throughout the country who have shown the
01:08:37.580
people they want to employ, by the way, who are ready to work to defend it, who are loyal
01:08:44.560
We're also committing to expand our reserve forces by at least 20,000 people.
01:08:49.540
We will fund the expansion of the Canadian Rangers.
01:08:52.120
We will support local defense units rooted in indigenous knowledge.
01:08:57.140
And we want to place Inuits, Dene, Quichin, and other indigenous nations at the heart of our Arctic
01:09:05.860
Because defending the land means listening to those who, first and foremost, live there.
01:09:20.200
First of all, this sounds like a make-work project for all the unemployed oil and gas workers if the
01:09:30.620
Oh, we're going to make them a standing militia.
01:09:34.100
Okay, what are they going to defend the country with?
01:09:37.280
You guys are the biggest gun grabbers in the mix.
01:09:39.980
You're the ones who are like, yes, liberals, take their guns and give them to the people of Ukraine.
01:09:48.360
You know, like how many Russians are you going to kill with my Mini-14?
01:09:54.100
Yes, I'm so happy you said that because the whole time he's talking, I'm thinking to myself,
01:09:58.480
oh, okay, so this is how they're suggesting we pivot our entire oil and gas sector into a big
01:10:09.360
How are we going to pivot all of those people working in natural resources to be DEI rambos?
01:10:18.620
Well, the Green Party just gave you a solution to that problem, but no thanks.
01:10:26.840
Right, and it doesn't even, like, address the issue of their anti-gun.
01:10:32.080
Like, you already want me to give my guns to Yaroslav in Kiev.
01:10:36.080
Like, I don't know how you think this is going to work out.
01:10:39.320
We're going to give everybody a spitzer of apple cider vinegar, and when the bad guys come pouring
01:10:45.220
over the border, they'll be just like, that's it.
01:10:50.560
They're like, we want a standing militia to defend against cyber attacks.
01:11:02.660
And then they say, we want to expand the reserves by 20,000.
01:11:10.800
We can't get people to sign up for the military, and the ones that are there want to leave desperately.
01:11:15.540
They're just watching the clock because it's too woke.
01:11:17.760
And then the Greens, who want to disarm everybody, want to expand this military force.
01:11:25.960
This is the dumbest thing ever, but the good news is it's the Greens.
01:11:31.560
So this stuff won't manifest anywhere outside of their fevered minds.
01:11:37.100
He and Elizabeth may dream that up over a boozy brunch in Ottawa, I think.
01:12:07.860
Let's talk about the NDP being absolute deviant weirdos.
01:12:12.660
Because there's two things we need to talk about.
01:12:18.960
Because the other one, I'm just full of just, I'm grossed out by it, honestly, for a hundred
01:12:28.380
He asks, if you aren't following Ryan, by the way, on X, you definitely should.
01:12:46.640
I just feel like the whole furry realm probably smells not great.
01:12:50.580
This is fetish gear, where people cosplay as animals.
01:13:01.500
I don't even know if I could say that on YouTube.
01:13:06.720
Yes, this is who Jagmeet Singh is appealing to, is the perverts and the fetishists of
01:13:16.720
But then this is the party that believes that, you know, sex work is actual work, and they're
01:13:27.760
And what he does next absolutely solidifies this claim.
01:13:31.780
But yeah, here's Jagmeet Singh with a bunch of fetishists, Canada.
01:13:34.640
Make sure to vote for your local, municipal, provincial, and federal NDP if you're down
01:13:43.200
Yeah, if you have somebody running for your school board that is NDP adjacent, just remember
01:13:52.600
Like these, so these guys would not be out of place in a, in the back part of a pride
01:14:00.580
You know, at the front part of the pride parade is where all of the dignitaries are with
01:14:04.640
And they never, ever get to see the fetishists at the back of the parade.
01:14:10.420
In the parade, they might be wearing full leather gear and some, you know, some chain
01:14:16.180
mail and some rank, you know, metal, metal goods attached to the, to the leather gear.
01:14:24.400
But yeah, this is what, this is what, this is what Jagmeet is doing now.
01:14:29.000
Uh, this is just another thing Jagmeet Singh is doing because I don't know how to describe
01:14:41.400
Uh, maybe, uh, Jagmeet Singh, uh, appears with an OnlyFans model.
01:14:53.620
Uh, but this is full, like only full, no triple X stuff.
01:15:01.060
And she posts it on her X account and new Democrat Jagmeet Singh is with this OnlyFans model and
01:15:13.440
Uh, I, I don't even know why they call it that.
01:15:17.100
Um, and she's donning a keffiyeh to show her solidarity with Hamas.
01:15:25.900
Um, and they talk about how they want to throttle and prevent Israel from winning their war and
01:15:35.860
This girl has just, I mean, where are her parents?
01:15:42.620
As Canadians, we're proud the American military does not get to decide what goes on inside
01:15:45.800
our borders because we don't vote for them and Palestinians deserve the exact same thing.
01:15:51.560
Should not be selling or buying from a country, especially a Netanyahu government that violates
01:15:55.800
We should be sanctioning those that are involved in these war crimes.
01:15:59.240
Why are we buying and selling arms to a place that doesn't respect international borders?
01:16:03.180
The points are actually things that we put forward either in emotion or we put forward
01:16:07.920
The censorship going on right now with Palestinian voices is unbelievable and we need to get out
01:16:11.700
there and have our voices heard as Canadians because we have the privilege of being able
01:16:18.880
We also have an important platform to help people around the world where their voices
01:16:22.580
are being silenced and we can actually amplify their voices.
01:16:25.200
I encourage you to go to elections.ca, figure out where your writing is, what you need to
01:16:38.100
A girl who peddles her body on OnlyFans to the highest bidder and then, yeah, of course
01:16:45.060
they call it sex work, but that is a woman whom I would not let sit on my couch.
01:16:53.440
Jonathan Kaye had the funniest thing to say about it.
01:16:55.800
He was like, the porn industry is going to take a hit to their reputation after one of
01:17:00.040
their stars and seems patronizing with Jagmeet Singh.
01:17:04.020
And I went, yup, that's about, that's the long and short of it.
01:17:09.520
But I think that maybe somebody in the NDP brain trust thought to themselves, now, how
01:17:19.700
And they went, well, OnlyFans is full of young people.
01:17:22.900
And this reminds me of the math tutor that put all of his content on, oh, how am I going
01:17:29.820
to say, you know, the website, the really, the really, uh, the, the most famous website
01:17:40.000
This math tutor put all of his content on a Horn Hub and, uh, and it turned out to be really
01:17:46.380
I think this is, I think this is what Jagmeet Singh was thinking.
01:17:49.620
Like, this is where I'm going to find the young people, but then it only makes you look
01:17:53.600
like trash because, uh, because we know that the people that are on, that are on OnlyFans,
01:18:03.100
They're there because they cannot find a job in Canada.
01:18:07.380
And this is the way that young people are making money.
01:18:11.860
You're on there for, like, you're on there for, I'm going to say you're on there for three
01:18:21.720
I guess it's, she would, uh, she'll have to tell us which, please don't scroll down this
01:18:28.080
feed because it is atrocious, uh, and it's definitely not safe for you to, um, she, Sheila
01:18:42.500
It'll just, just be us doing handicrafts and, uh, telling you that you should make good
01:18:47.940
There are good things that are going to happen to you.
01:18:52.780
And I'll help you with your crochet, crochet stitches.
01:18:55.500
Like if you need crochet advice or pickling advice, you can reach me on Only Grans and
01:19:11.040
You know, that, that early in the morning, happy birthday call that your grandma used to
01:19:17.820
I will send you a card with the scratch and win lottery ticket in there for your birthday
01:19:27.180
We don't work for free, but if you need the care and attention of a card from your fake
01:19:34.160
grandma that has a scratch and win bingo card in there, I will do that for you.
01:19:41.840
I will, I will write you a check for five bucks for your birthday because who uses checks
01:19:53.240
Oh, this is such a, yeah, no, it's gonna, we're just gonna have to make it happen, Sheila
01:19:56.960
Gunreed, because now we're creating, we're creating.
01:20:03.600
Um, now, uh, and there's a fundamental problem with what Jagmeet Singh is doing.
01:20:11.740
And that is presuming that all young people are deviants and weirdos and sickos when that
01:20:16.440
is really just a small cult-like segment of young people.
01:20:28.760
Um, young people increasingly embrace conservatism.
01:20:32.620
This is a study, um, this is like, uh, a Fraser Institute study of an abacus poll indicating
01:20:40.720
that 36, 36% of Canadians between 18 and 29 would support the conservatives versus 27%
01:20:50.700
Uh, this is such a deviation from historical norms, which showed up until this point, young
01:20:57.820
people disproportionately were, you know, well, young and idealistic and heavily left-leaning.
01:21:07.260
And, and actually this gives me hope for us, Canada, to know that our young people coming
01:21:13.440
But it's, it's incredible the way that, um, telling kids that they, you know, they're part
01:21:19.520
of a genocidal state and punishing for them, punishing them for crimes that they did not
01:21:25.640
commit and telling them that they're terrible and telling them that the world is on fire
01:21:29.160
and that climate change is going to end things anyway, you know, raising them in this, uh,
01:21:36.120
It's incredible what that does to young Canadians.
01:21:38.380
Cause this is showing us that they are overwhelmingly rejecting all of that.
01:21:43.340
So this, this makes me happy when we're looking for a little glimmer of hope, Canada, here
01:21:49.840
Well, and you can see this turning out at the, uh, rallies, you see the, like overwhelmingly
01:21:54.860
like young, uh, Polly of rallies, the Lord's waiting room of the, uh, liberal rallies.
01:22:02.820
And then you've got like the union retirees and weirdos who go to the Jagmeet Singh rallies.
01:22:16.480
That's, that's, that's absolutely imperative in these next 30 days is that all of those
01:22:24.360
One thing I want to talk about while I have you, and then we will close on Ezra's report
01:22:30.920
from outside the courthouse in Ottawa on the Tamara Leach conviction.
01:22:36.520
Now Tamara Leach and Chris Barber convicted of mischief in an Ottawa courtroom today.
01:22:42.400
So just hang tight with us after we sign off and say, bye, we want you to stay.
01:22:47.700
Um, and Ezra will be headed back into the courtroom.
01:22:50.220
If he isn't already there now to, uh, continue on with, uh, the judge's ruling.
01:22:57.260
Um, but I wanted to talk to Lisa about this because, um, we were talking about this yesterday
01:23:03.160
in a little side project that we're working on, uh, daily mail online, female fencer takes
01:23:08.620
the knee and walks out against transgender rival.
01:23:12.360
As she tells the ref, I will not fence against a man.
01:23:18.040
So the world's why just consumable publication in the world, uh, USA fencer, Stephanie Turner
01:23:25.040
was scheduled to face Redmond Sullivan at the cherry blossom tournament held in the university
01:23:31.420
However, as the match was about to begin, Turner took a knee, removed her mask in protest during
01:23:39.740
She was subsequently shown a black card, which signifies that the player is immediately excluded
01:23:44.300
from the competition and suspended for the remainder of it.
01:23:48.140
Turner had completed four matches before facing Sullivan, who eventually placed 24th out of the
01:23:56.340
Turner told Fox news digital, I saw that I was going to be in a pool with Redmond.
01:24:04.800
And then they actually show images of her taking a knee for, uh, and refusing to compete against,
01:24:27.900
She said, I knew what, what I had to do because USA fencing had not been listening to women's
01:24:35.720
Redmond Sullivan was under the impression that I was going to start fencing.
01:24:38.720
So when I took the knee, I looked at the ref and said, I'm sorry, I can't do this.
01:24:42.820
I am a woman and this is a man and this is a women's tournament.
01:24:49.820
And he comes up to me and he thinks that I may be hurt or he doesn't understand what's
01:24:58.900
I have much love and respect for you, but I will not fence you.
01:25:13.380
I think we can all agree that we know that there are biological differences between men
01:25:21.400
How is this still being allowed to happen in the United States?
01:25:30.740
So are they going to see their funding resented by the federal government then?
01:25:43.840
That young women, that young women at the apex of their athletic careers in, in university
01:25:51.640
settings, that they have to take a knee, that they have to bow out of the entire competition
01:26:00.020
That this is happening in Canada makes me mental.
01:26:06.220
Oh, and that's another thing we have to fix Canada.
01:26:08.540
We got to get rid of all of this garbage that the United States got rid of.
01:26:12.340
But that this is still being allowed to, to happen in the United States is a cause for
01:26:19.400
Well, I guess, I guess Maryland is in for a showdown with the Trump administration, or
01:26:25.080
at least the University of Maryland, because the executive order that Trump signed vowed
01:26:31.600
to rescind funding to any institution that permits trans athletes to participate in female
01:26:37.840
The order directs the Department of Justice to make sure all government agencies enforce
01:26:42.800
a ban under Trump's interpretation of Title IX, a law against sex discrimination in education.
01:26:50.100
And since then, the NCAA, so that's the Varsity Sports Umbrella Organization, they amended
01:26:57.040
their policy to now limit women's sports to student athletes who are female at birth.
01:27:06.740
And I would not, I would not play chicken with Trump.
01:27:13.380
But, but my heart does go out to that, to that, to that athlete for having to take that
01:27:20.940
It, uh, those brave stances do not happen without a great deal of, uh, of care and consideration.
01:27:29.580
And, uh, and I, my heart just goes out to her knowing that she had to do that.
01:27:33.720
And, and for every woman that has to take any, uh, in a show of complacency while these
01:27:41.360
things get sorted out, just know that we're on your side every single time.
01:27:44.800
And we will be unrelenting until we see these changes in Canada too.
01:27:51.260
We've got one quick ad read to pay the bills and then we'll sign off.
01:27:54.020
And then you guys at home, please stick around.
01:27:56.140
If you want to hear what Ezra has to say, uh, his take on the conviction of Tamera Leach
01:28:00.860
and Chris Barber today in a courtroom in Ottawa for their role in the 2022 liberation movement
01:28:12.680
And of course it's spelt the cutesy way, P-A-W-S-I-T-I-V-E.
01:28:16.480
If you have a dog and we've all been there, our pup goes from full of energy to sick and
01:28:20.120
miserable in an instant and at the worst of times, then we're calling vets in the middle
01:28:23.860
of the night or on weekends, trying to find a clinic that will take us in.
01:28:26.420
It's a terrible way to manage your dog's health, not to mention your stress levels and your
01:28:30.560
That's why people are getting the pet emergency kit by Positive.
01:28:33.980
It contains critical medication and supplies that can not only keep you out of the vet office,
01:28:40.440
Their kit contains critical medications like activated charcoal, styptic powder, and more.
01:28:48.460
Use code STUDIO to get 15% off your pet emergency kit.
01:28:57.320
Uh, if we don't have any more chats, Olivia, then I will say our goodbyes and our thank yous.
01:29:04.900
And then, uh, everybody can stick around to hear Ezra's report from outside of the courtroom.
01:29:08.860
Um, Lise, thanks so much for joining me on this, I think, dark day, um, for freedom and
01:29:18.620
But I don't think that it is at even close to the end of it.
01:29:23.840
And thanks so much for having me, uh, Rebel and to our viewers.
01:29:27.620
I was saying to Sheila yesterday, coming on this show is like therapy for me.
01:29:30.940

Thanks to everybody at Rebel News who works behind the scenes to let you click and watch
01:30:22.260

01:30:24.520
Thanks to everybody who pitches in a little bit to keep the lights on here at Rebel News.
01:30:28.860
Thanks to our special sponsors, uh, through Rumble.
01:30:36.800
And as my friend David Menzies always says, stay safe and stay sane.
01:30:45.280
Shocking news, at least for me and the many fans of Tamara Leach.
01:30:49.100
We're standing outside the Ottawa courthouse where in the last five minutes, Judge Heather
01:30:55.300
Perkins McVeigh said that she has convicted both Tamara Leach and Chris Barber.
01:31:02.920
The two figureheads of the trucker convoy convicted them in the first of a series of counts involving
01:31:09.020
their role in the trucker convoy in this city some three years ago.
01:31:16.640
Uh, I thought that perhaps Chris Barber may have been convicted because some of his language
01:31:20.980
is more florid about locking down the city and wrecking things.
01:31:26.040
Some of those transcripts were read back by the judge today.
01:31:28.960
But I'm truly astonished that Tamara Leach was convicted.
01:31:33.240
Tamara Leach, whose only statements were about peace and love.
01:31:36.980
She literally would talk that way, about keeping your spirit's eye and let's be peaceful and
01:31:42.280
It was, uh, I called her the spiritual leader of the truckers.
01:31:46.460
It was some astonishing logic used by the judge in my view.
01:31:50.460
For example, here's one of the reasons the judge is convicted.
01:31:53.760
She said that Tamara Leach was told by police that the truckers had to move their trucks and
01:31:58.920
to de-escalate the protest because it was causing problems and Tamara Leach agreed to help.
01:32:05.300
Now you might think that that's proof that Tamara Leach was on the side of the good guys,
01:32:09.940
It showed that Tamara Leach knew that there was a problem of mischief in the city that
01:32:16.260
So by crowdfunding for the truckers and by encouraging the truckers and using the phrase
01:32:21.100
hold the line, she knew she was committing a crime because she knew there was a problem
01:32:30.800
It really irritated me that the phrase hold the line was taken by the judge as proof that
01:32:37.980
Tamara Leach was inciting mischief, hold the line, a most innocuous phrase, a generic
01:32:42.820
phrase, a phrase that was even used by police during the convoy.
01:32:47.500
Imagine being convicted of mischief in part because you said the words hold the line in
01:32:52.840
the same country where there are pro-Hamas protests, where they chant things like from
01:32:58.740
the river to the sea, which means to genocide all the Jews, ethnically cleanse all the Jews
01:33:07.900
So you hear those violent chants throughout this country on street protests and universities
01:33:17.560
But Tamara Leach leads the greatest peaceful protest in a generation.
01:33:22.360
And because she says hold the line, the judge uses that as one of the reasons to convict her.
01:33:30.880
I thought that this judge, because she had presided over the Mark Norman fiasco when the
01:33:36.520
government tried to set up the vice admiral in a political witch hunt, I thought that
01:33:41.420
she would be alive and alert to the kind of schemes and scams by prosecutors.
01:33:53.180
I wanted to make sure I got here despite the weather.
01:33:55.120
And I met briefly with Tamara Leach, and I talked to her a little bit.
01:33:59.220
And I said, either way, today is going to be appealed.
01:34:03.880
If Tamara Leach were acquitted today, the vengeful government would have appealed that acquittal.
01:34:10.100
And I didn't think it was likely, but I thought if she was convicted, we'll obviously appeal for her.
01:34:14.280
And she agreed to accept the help from the Democracy Fund to crowdfund the cost of repeal.
01:34:23.740
I asked her last night, will you accept help from the Democracy Fund to crowdfund your appeal should you lose?
01:34:36.640
If you believe in helping Tamara, go to helptamara.com.
01:34:42.920
That's a fundraiser through the Democracy Fund charity to pay her lawyers to help fight.
01:34:51.820
And it tells me there's two tiers of justice in this country.
01:34:54.840
If you want to help fight back, go to helptamara.com.
