Rebel News Podcast - REBEL ROUNDUP ｜ Trump takes on WEF, Ontario gets an election, Alberta finds allies in tariff fight

00:00:00.000 Hopefully you're having a good time with this podcast, but I guarantee a better time would be coming to Alaska with me, Drea Humphrey, and my other Rebel colleagues.

00:00:11.260 You've got to find out more at our special website, rebelnewscruise.com, but it's taking place June 18th to June 25th, a vacation trip of a lifetime.

00:00:24.540 Again, that's rebelnewscruise.com.

00:00:27.000 I'll see you there.

00:00:30.000 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:36.520 You have tuned into the Rebel News live stream on this, a Friday, January 24th, 2025.

00:00:44.520 I'm David Menzies, and my co-host will let me tell you a bit about my co-host, shall I?

00:00:49.980 Do you know, folks, today is Beer Can Appreciation Day, and my co-host is so thankful that the breweries,

00:01:00.000 starting in the late 60s, started switching over from steel cans to aluminum cans.

00:01:06.520 Why?

00:01:07.240 Well, because now everybody is a tough guy.

00:01:14.180 She is the she-devil with a spatula.

00:01:16.280 She is the Khaleesi of the greater Coburg area, and a little bit of Belleville.

00:01:20.580 She is the terrific Tamara Ugolini.

00:01:23.420 How you doing there, Tamara?

00:01:25.300 Oh, pretty good.

00:01:26.020 Thanks, David.

00:01:26.620 I didn't know that in the 60s, this predates my days, that they switched over from steel to aluminum.

00:01:32.620 So were the cans much heavier then?

00:01:34.200 Can you tell us?

00:01:35.060 Oh, yeah.

00:01:35.600 You really had...

00:01:36.740 You couldn't be a girly man and crush a beer can when they were made out of steel, but when they were made out of aluminum, as I just demonstrated, you could be a couch potato, and, well, I guess the consistency of aluminum, it isn't quite what steel is.

00:01:51.680 And, yeah, like I said, everybody is now a tough guy, and a guy like me, I'm very appreciative of it.

00:02:00.660 I bet.

00:02:01.600 Well, thank you to all of our viewers at home who are joining us.

00:02:04.660 For those of you who don't know, this is our Rebel News live stream, and we do it three days a week currently as the looming trade war, kind of as we spearhead into this looming trade war and the lack of political governance that we have here in Canada on the federal level.

00:02:22.420 But previously, we were just doing them on Mondays and Fridays.

00:02:25.440 So, obviously, today is our Friday time slot, and we're streaming on a few different platforms.

00:02:29.200 You can join us on Rumble, YouTube, or X.

00:02:34.180 Thankfully for Rumble, they're the free speech platform, and they have not demonetized us or censored our speech.

00:02:41.160 So, I would urge anyone who's joining us on YouTube in particular, because they have done those things, to come on over to the Rumble side and support us there.

00:02:51.860 We will be running through some Rumble ad reads, which help support our journalism and keep our lights on and the cameras rolling.

00:02:59.440 So, if you haven't already, head on over to Rumble.

00:03:03.700 There, you can also give us what's called a Rumble rant.

00:03:06.660 And so, for a $5 US donation or more, if you so please, you can have your comment or tip read to us on air.

00:03:16.440 And we always appreciate when our audience engages with us, because it lets us feel the temperature of the room.

00:03:22.000 And it also is a great way for you to have your voice heard on a larger platform.

00:03:26.860 So, head on over to Rumble.

00:03:28.940 Send us a Rumble rant.

00:03:31.080 And let us know what's on your mind on this Friday, January the 24th, as we head into probably a provincial election starting next week, says Premier Doug Ford.

00:03:41.260 Yeah, and, you know, we'll get to that video clip in a second.

00:03:44.920 Isn't it just so sad, Tamara Ugolini, that Canadians are clamoring for an election and then you wake up today with the announcement, oh, we're getting an election.

00:03:54.060 Yeah, not a federal election, which everybody wants, practically.

00:03:58.920 Although, if you believe Karina Gould, she says nobody, Canadians don't want a federal election.

00:04:05.740 Wow.

00:04:05.980 But Doug Ford, a provincial election, he's got a super majority government.

00:04:12.980 He's got it for another two years, at least.

00:04:17.480 And this is pure politicking.

00:04:21.100 But before I get into, and you know what it reminds me of, Tamara Ugolini?

00:04:24.860 It's that great sales contest in Glengarry Glen Ross where these hapless real estate guys have to go out and sell these no-hope properties.

00:04:37.160 And for the month, whoever makes the most sales, well, first prize, Cadillac Eldorado.

00:04:43.380 Second prize, set of steak knives.

00:04:46.880 Third prize, you're fired.

00:04:48.660 And, you know, in that department, Doug Ford's got to be careful what he wishes for.

00:04:54.780 I'm not saying he's going to lose.

00:04:56.700 But then again, I hearken back to 1990.

00:05:00.060 David Peterson, the Liberal Premier, had a majority government, went to the polls very early.

00:05:07.000 And Ontario woke up to an NDP government under Bob Ray.

00:05:13.000 And I will make a prediction, regardless of who wins, I think, Tamara, you're going to see one of the lowest, if not the record lowest turnout in a Ontario provincial election.

00:05:29.620 One, because it's going to be in the dead of winter, which is really no excuse, but people will use that as an excuse.

00:05:37.700 And secondly, even supporters of Doug Ford, and this is what he's got to be careful of, are going to say, I don't agree with this.

00:05:46.200 He's going to win anyway, so I'm just going to stay at home.

00:05:48.780 Right.

00:05:49.280 And the moment in elections you think it's in the bag, guess what?

00:05:53.820 It comes out of the bag, especially when when it comes to the Liberals and the NDP, you have all the public union leaders.

00:06:02.980 They'll be advocating. I'm not sure where they're going to weigh in, whether it's Bonnie Crombie, Liberals or the NDP, but they're highly motivated.

00:06:11.640 They get out the vote. So, you know, I think he's playing with fire.

00:06:16.780 But before I get your opinion on this, Tamara, why don't we check out what Premier Doug Ford had to say in that beautiful borough of Brampton?

00:06:29.200 We will be calling the election next Wednesday. I'll be seeing the Lieutenant Governor on on Tuesday.

00:06:36.040 We need a mandate from the people to fight against Donald Trump's tariffs, the attack he's coming against our families, our businesses, our communities.

00:06:45.520 And with a strong mandate, we will be able to fight with Donald Trump to make sure we stop the tariffs and make sure that we give certainty to the people of Ontario.

00:06:58.340 It may take investing tens of billions of dollars.

00:07:01.260 We'll do tens of billions of dollars. It's no different than during the pandemic.

00:07:06.520 We'll make sure we secure people's livelihoods and I will do whatever it takes to protect the people of Ontario.

00:07:13.420 In turn, because we're the engine of Canada, protecting all Canadians, we will not back down.

00:07:19.640 Thank you.

00:07:49.640 Thank you.

00:08:19.640 Thank you.

00:08:49.640 Thank you.

00:09:19.620 Thank you.

00:09:49.600 Thank you.

00:10:19.580 And it might not happen.

00:10:21.580 And it might not happen. We don't know if these are negotiating ploys.

00:10:24.480 We don't know if Donald Trump is really concerned way more about Mexico than Ontario and Canada.

00:10:30.580 But once it's a reality, then maybe you have some solid ground to say, I need a mandate.

00:10:40.020 But right now, it's just speculation, isn't it?

00:10:43.220 Yeah, that's a really good point.

00:10:44.220 Yeah, that's a really good point, David.

00:10:45.220 And I think that we know President Trump is a professional troll.

00:10:48.760 And so he'll troll people just to gauge the temperature and to see where that line is going to be drawn.

00:10:57.140 And I agree that Doug Ford's position, it started off that he was going to cut energy to the United States, cut electric energy to the United States.

00:11:07.620 And then he was going to pull, I think it was bourbon from the shelves in Ontario, which you can still get, I think, at select convenience stores because of what he's done with the availability of liquor in Ontario.

00:11:22.460 And now he's saying that we need a new mandate.

00:11:25.140 I mean, Ford is quite literally just flip-flop Ford once again.

00:11:28.940 He's all over the map.

00:11:30.040 He can't seem to figure out what exactly to nail down and to hold true on.

00:11:34.940 He's just going every which way and throwing things at the wall to see what will stick is how I'm reading this.

00:11:40.800 You know, and by the way, Tamara Ugolini, I'm going to give myself a Barry Horowitz pat on the back because I think I coined the nickname Triple F for him, flip-flop Ford.

00:11:52.460 This guy flip-flops more than a marlin once you, you know, reel it in and throw it on the surface of the boat.

00:12:00.140 But I just want to point out one thing you said, and you're absolutely right.

00:12:04.260 One of the targets, if you can imagine, is Kentucky bourbon.

00:12:10.060 And he's got the power, evidently, to yank Kentucky bourbon off the shelves of the hard liquor monopoly that is the LCBO.

00:12:21.700 Yeah, we, in Ontario, the market's being opened up for supermarkets and gas stations and convenience stores to sell liquor.

00:12:28.540 Oh, but not all liquor, beer and wine.

00:12:31.240 We're not quite adult enough for the hard stuff to marry you, Galini.

00:12:34.560 And if you can explain why, there's a steak dinner in it for you.

00:12:38.680 But as I understand it, these Kentucky distilleries, I've been told, I'll have to fact check this, get a lot of their rye from the province of Alberta.

00:12:50.380 So, you know, Triple F, he's hurting Albertans and a Canadian province by eradicating Kentucky bourbon on the shelves of our liquor monopoly stores.

00:13:02.060 Unbelievable. But why don't we move on to, oh, love this one, Tamara, you, Galini.

00:13:10.460 It is a blackface mocking Trump's vision of a new American golden age.

00:13:17.940 Aye, aye, aye.

00:13:18.820 Let's hear the prime minister taking the long goodbye exit, weighing in on Trump's magnificent speech going back to Monday.

00:13:30.800 Donald Trump has announced that he wants a golden age for the American economy.

00:13:36.760 That means they're going to need more energy, more minerals, more steel and aluminum, more lumber, more concrete,

00:13:45.080 more of the things that Canada is already sending them as a reliable and trustworthy partner.

00:13:52.880 If he does move forward on tariffs on Canada, as he has said, whether it be back on January 20th or on February 1st or February 15th as a Valentine's Day present or on April 1st,

00:14:08.500 so whenever he says he's going to do it, as he keeps repeating, two things will happen.

00:14:13.360 One, Canada will have a strong, robust response because we don't want this, but we will respond if necessary.

00:14:21.000 And two, prices for American consumers on just about everything will go up.

00:14:28.000 And we don't think he wants that.

00:14:29.660 So we're going to be there.

00:14:31.360 Donald Trump has announced that he wants.

00:14:33.280 I wish we could see the clip of Trudeau actually walking down those stairs.

00:14:38.640 I don't know why he has to be so weird.

00:14:41.840 He's walking just the way he's walking.

00:14:44.580 And I think his sweater looks like it's on backwards.

00:14:47.460 You know, you're right.

00:14:48.840 It's so bizarre.

00:14:50.140 It's and, you know, he says something.

00:14:52.120 Canada will have a strong, robust response.

00:14:55.140 But the prime minister, who's outgoing, by the way, he's resigned from his post as prime minister.

00:15:01.400 And now the liberals on the federal level are too busy playing political musical chairs, trying to figure out who's going to lead the party, then actually lead the country.

00:15:11.320 He's saying this as he left his post as prime minister, is waiting for his successor to come in and fill those very small shoes.

00:15:19.400 And then he's also prorogued parliament.

00:15:22.740 So we don't even have a functioning federal government as it stands currently.

00:15:27.520 And we won't until the end of March, if all goes according to Trudeau's plan.

00:15:33.500 And so how he can stand up there with his sweater on backwards and tell Canadians that we will have a strong, robust response as he's exiting his role and he's prorogued our parliamentary business is absolutely absurd.

00:15:47.800 I don't know what kind of la-la imaginary land Trudeau's living in, but it's not reality.

00:15:54.720 Yeah. And, you know, you make a great point about his haberdashery, Tamera Ugolini.

00:15:59.460 I mean, yeah, you don't have to wear a tuxedo, but he is still the prime minister.

00:16:05.980 And I would like to see.

00:16:07.800 There he is.

00:16:08.700 Look at his legs.

00:16:09.480 They just look so weird.

00:16:10.960 Yeah. And, you know, I like a little decorum to go with the leader of the nation, even him.

00:16:20.400 This idea of a backwards sweater and looks like the kind of blue jeans you would wear around the house when you're doing spring cleaning.

00:16:29.680 Um, come on, uh, is, uh, well, at least, uh, you know, I can't remember his name.

00:16:36.280 Well, who was the liberal MP that showed up for a zoom meeting twice naked?

00:16:40.680 Um, so he's no longer there, but, um, I guess we should be grateful for small mercies, but Tamera here, here's where I come.

00:16:51.540 Um, the chutzpah of Trudeau talking about energy, right?

00:16:58.400 That is going to the U S that we're such a important provider of energy.

00:17:03.620 And this is someone who has sabotaged, especially Alberta energy programs in terms of not allowing pipelines to get their trillions.

00:17:15.580 Yes. Trillions with a T mineral wealth, um, to market, or even down to Houston to be refined into, you know, actual oil and gas that is used at the consumer level.

00:17:29.620 So there's that.

00:17:30.700 And also Trudeau better be careful because it's not like Canada has monopoly.

00:17:38.260 There are other nations that can provide energy, but the number one provider of energy for the United States of America might be drum roll, please.

00:17:50.100 The United States of America under Trump's original reign.

00:17:55.160 The U S for the first time in 70 years was energy independent, thanks to the fracking miracle that Biden and his cohorts, uh, eradicated.

00:18:09.800 In fact, the U S was actually exporting energy in the four years that Donald Trump was the president.

00:18:17.060 So, um, if he can, if he could do it four years ago, uh, to marry you, Galini, why can't he do it again?

00:18:25.520 So I don't think we can play that Trump card a and B, you know, how disingenuous can you get the only reason, um, blackface doesn't allow those, uh, energy projects to come to fruition in our very own dominion.

00:18:42.620 Well, that's out West where what in Alberta, I think the liberals have one MP.

00:18:48.120 So, uh, it's a write-off for them politically.

00:18:51.600 And secondly, it's all about playing the climate change narrative.

00:18:56.020 We've got to go to the poor house with a smile on our face.

00:19:00.180 Cause Hey, we're saving mother nature.

00:19:03.120 Give me a break.

00:19:03.960 Yeah.

00:19:05.040 And part of Trump's, uh, first orders of business as president, when he took the reins on Monday was he explicitly stated over and over, he's going to bring manufacturing back into the United States and reduce their dependency on foreign exports and international trade.

00:19:23.520 So this flies in the face of everything that Trump announced on Monday that he's going to do to, to stop being so reliable on these external factors.

00:19:32.800 And then, um, I don't know if we're going to get into it later, but maybe now's a good time to, to bring it up.

00:19:38.860 Quebec has now sided with Alberta premier Danielle Smith and said, wait a minute.

00:19:44.360 No, anything that we do disrupting this flow of energy and trade between our two countries, because the United States is our closest ally and partner when it comes to the global economy.

00:19:56.220 And he even warns that disrupting the flow of energy from Quebec and Alberta and the rest of Canada into the United States would put our country in a very weak position to negotiate future contracts.

00:20:09.300 So this is really, you know, the, the Trudeau is, is parroting this team Canada approach and we're united and Ford's kind of falling in line with Trudeau.

00:20:18.820 I mean, as we've seen him do repeatedly over the last few years, but then you have some of the provinces, finally Alberta and now Quebec.

00:20:25.200 And I think, I suspect that maybe Saskatchewan won't be too far behind.

00:20:29.300 They're coming together and saying, no, no, no, hold on a minute.

00:20:32.440 This is damaging to our relationship now, but also into the future.

00:20:36.200 And we need to really think twice about how we proceed here and they're not on team Canada.

00:20:41.080 So we don't have a unified approach.

00:20:42.780 We don't have a federal government.

00:20:44.840 And now in Ontario, we're heading into an election as well.

00:20:47.380 I mean, this quite literally, and I just did a report on it yesterday.

00:20:50.900 This is a political dumpster fire that we have here in Canada and especially in Ontario where flip flop Ford just can't even make up his mind on how best to proceed.

00:20:59.080 And so he just wants to call an election and I guess that will help him to figure it out.

00:21:03.120 I don't know.

00:21:04.020 Oh, well, a couple of things.

00:21:05.340 First of all, that alliance that you see with the premiers of Quebec and Alberta, it just shows you, and I don't think I'm exaggerating, since Monday, the world is changing on a daily basis.

00:21:19.420 You know, that is not exaggeration.

00:21:21.980 I mean, even at the inauguration, when you saw so many people, all the, you know, billionaire, even trillionaire tech CEOs showing up at the inauguration, I heard one analyst say, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I would have sworn this was an AI generated image.

00:21:42.740 So, um, enemies are becoming friends or at least frenemies.

00:21:48.200 And, um, this is yet another indication of that.

00:21:51.860 And, uh, again, on, um, Doug Ford saying he's got to call an election to get a mandate to save Ontario and therefore Canada.

00:22:01.480 And, you know, where my beat the meter, you know, the needle on my BS meter, Tamara Ugolini veered heavily into the red zone.

00:22:11.280 When I heard him condemning his opponents, liberal leader, Bonnie Crombie, uh, NDP leader, uh, Merritt Stiles, he said, if either of those ladies had to negotiate with Trump, his quote was, they would be an absolute disaster for Ontario and thereby Canada.

00:22:31.860 An absolute disaster.

00:22:33.280 Tamara, that's what he said about Olivia Chow when he threw his backing against another candidate.

00:22:40.220 Um, I'm having a Biden moment.

00:22:42.300 I can't remember who it was, but on the eve of the election, he said, Toronto under Olivia Chow will be an absolute disaster.

00:22:50.960 And when Chow was voted in, uh, thanks to the union muscle suddenly, oh, you know, um, it's a great day.

00:22:59.340 And I'm so happy to see mayor Chow in, you know, in a city hall.

00:23:03.920 It's unbelievable.

00:23:05.500 Again, flip flop forward.

00:23:07.220 I don't know what to believe when he opens his mouth.

00:23:10.220 Yeah, I'm starting to think probably just the opposite of whatever he says.

00:23:14.460 Uh, we have a quick super chat here from Ryerson Gary who gives $5.

00:23:17.900 He says, if Ford, if Doug Ford and his governing liberal party of Ontario, right.

00:23:22.700 Cause they're the progressive conservatives do not initiate his tariff war with the U S look for a 1930s style depression.

00:23:30.840 Tariff wars in history have always caused massive unemployment.

00:23:34.980 Yeah.

00:23:35.080 They're already warning of that.

00:23:36.480 Yeah.

00:23:37.620 And, you know, Ryerson Gary is correct.

00:23:39.600 Calling him the liberal, uh, premier of Ontario, or certainly the party's official name is, uh, progressive conservative, uh, forget the conservative part, uh, emphasize the progressive part.

00:23:51.720 Tamera Ugolini, I'm not kidding.

00:23:53.580 I don't see any difference between this Ford government and the McGinty win liberal government.

00:24:00.780 In fact, in many cases, it's actually worse.

00:24:04.220 One of the planks that Ford ran on back in 2018, if you recall, was to, uh, fix the radicalized sex ed curriculum.

00:24:13.720 It has become undoubtedly more radicalized in the last seven years.

00:24:21.060 Forget about fixing it.

00:24:22.740 That's just one example.

00:24:24.400 Also, he's spending like a drunken sailor.

00:24:28.060 Um, another example, uh, I, I spoke of this in, in a rant earlier this week.

00:24:34.260 Um, it's a little thing, but it's about bending the knee to won't cancel culture for five years now on the lawns of Queens Park, the statue of our first prime minister, a conservative, no less.

00:24:48.100 Sir John A. Macdonald remains in a tomb, a makeshift coffin, because it was too triggering, uh, to the likes of Black Lives Matter, um, uh, adherence and Antifa.

00:25:01.660 And you had Bonnie Crombie, the liberal leader of the, uh, liberal, uh, party of Ontario coming to the defense of taking down that coffin to display Sir John A. Macdonald.

00:25:18.500 Um, I'll take her at her word, but imagine that, uh, Tamara, a conservative air quotes premier doesn't want to see that trigger called our first prime minister on the lawns of Queens.

00:25:31.580 And in 2018 said to the city of Victoria, BC, which was the first to hop on the John A. Macdonald cancellation program.

00:25:41.720 If you're taking your Sir John state, a statue down, send it to Ontario.

00:25:46.800 We'll find a home for it here.

00:25:48.700 So he's gone from, we'll have two Sir John's on the lawns of Queens Park to no Sir John's and a liberal saying, Hey, bring back Sir John A. Macdonald.

00:26:00.600 I think I'm living on the bizarro Superman world right now.

00:26:04.440 Yeah.

00:26:04.980 That was the theme of our Wednesday stream.

00:26:07.040 Just how bizarre upside down world we are living.

00:26:09.700 Um, which always seems, you know, I, I, I've been saying since 2020, the same thing.

00:26:13.720 And then every time I think it's going to get better.

00:26:16.920 In fact, it just keeps getting worse.

00:26:19.360 Um, so I'm hoping that actually having Donald Trump back as the president of the United States will kind of reign in some of this hysteria and this illogical nonsense that we're living through.

00:26:28.580 But we'll see because even Trump is, is acknowledging and recognizing that Canada is not being very cooperative.

00:26:36.700 You know, it's funny because we're known on the global stage as being these like passive kind of go along to get along kind of people.

00:26:42.900 And now we have these ridiculous leaders that are supposed to be elected to represent us, not actually representing the true wants and needs of Canadians.

00:26:53.920 And Trump's seeing that it's, they're, they're being very difficult to deal with.

00:26:58.380 Um, here, let's, let's show this quick clip of Trump saying that.

00:27:02.760 Yeah.

00:27:03.360 One thing we're going to be demanding is we're going to be demanding respect from other nations.

00:27:08.880 Uh, Canada, we have a tremendous deficit with Canada.

00:27:12.280 We're not going to have that anymore.

00:27:13.480 We can't do it.

00:27:14.200 It's, it's, I don't know if it's good for them.

00:27:16.720 Uh, as you probably know, I say you can always become a state.

00:27:20.360 And if you're a state, we won't have a deficit.

00:27:22.660 We won't have to tariff you, et cetera, et cetera.

00:27:24.880 But Canada has been very tough to deal with over the years.

00:27:28.680 And it's not fair that we should have a 200 billion or $250 billion deficit.

00:27:34.260 We don't need them to make our cars and they make a lot of them.

00:27:37.420 We don't need their lumber because we have our own forests, et cetera, et cetera.

00:27:41.180 We don't need their oil and gas.

00:27:42.780 We have our, we have more than anybody.

00:27:45.260 So, uh, you know, just as an example, uh, with Mexico, we're dealing with Mexico, I think, very well.

00:27:51.360 And, uh, we're just, uh, you know, we, we just want to be treated fairly with other nations because there's hardly a nation in the world.

00:28:00.500 And I blame this on us and I blame it on, uh, politicians that for some reason, I'm probably mostly at stupidity, but you could also say, uh, other reasons, but mostly stupidity.

00:28:12.620 They've allowed other nations to take advantage of the U.S.

00:28:16.140 And we can't allow that to happen anymore.

00:28:18.420 You know, we have debt.

00:28:19.160 It's a very small debt when you compare it to value, the value of the assets that we have, but we don't want to do that.

00:28:26.220 We want to just have, uh, debt be obliterated and we'll be able to do that fairly rapidly.

00:28:32.840 And a lot of good things are going to happen.

00:28:34.740 Yeah, he's saying there too, uh, in cutting off, uh, billions in global aid funding where the U.S., you know, Trump is saying, you know what, we're done.

00:28:46.500 We need to take care of our people.

00:28:47.680 We need to pay off some of this debt, get out of this deficit.

00:28:49.760 And first order of business is, A, slapping tariffs on everybody who is acting a fool on the global stage.

00:28:57.100 And B, by cutting off these nonsensical billions, we are funding, you know, various, especially DEI initiatives in other countries like Africa.

00:29:07.540 It is absolutely insane.

00:29:08.680 And Canada is doing the exact same.

00:29:10.940 But we don't have any leaders on the world stage, um, and we don't even have anybody on the federal government level who are acting the same way and saying, you know what, why are we sending billions in aid for things like, uh, birth control in Africa when we have people here in Canada who can't even get a house to live in?

00:29:31.940 It's absolutely absurd.

00:29:33.380 You know, Tamara, can anyone blame, I mean, you know, just being objective about what President Trump is saying, can anyone blame him for saying it?

00:29:44.140 He ran on a platform of America First.

00:29:47.100 His slogan is make America great again, not make North America great again, but America as in the United States of America.

00:29:55.700 And I got to tell you, as much as I'm a proud Canadian, um, and I'm not, I'm not making a joke, uh, here, but if we face the specter of another four year term of these federal liberals, and I don't care who's at the helm, whether it's, uh, Mark Carney or where's Waldo, as they call him.

00:30:17.460 He just disappeared for the past week after making his announcement, or if it's Fraulein Freeland, I would prefer to be part of the United States of America.

00:30:29.380 I would prefer to be part of a country with such a strong constitution, which features the first amendment and the second amendment.

00:30:37.440 Because I think the death knell for Canada would be if these liberals somehow, someway got re-elected.

00:30:45.980 And I would do this as a bargaining position to Trump.

00:30:50.420 On condition of us becoming the 51st state, which is kind of ridiculous.

00:30:55.000 I mean, how can the 51st state be bigger than all the 50 states combined?

00:30:59.880 Well, you know, I think we'd have to, all the provinces and all the territories would have to be their own states.

00:31:05.380 But here is the condition.

00:31:08.320 You accept Canadian money at par.

00:31:11.960 Can you imagine that, Tamari Ugolini?

00:31:14.240 Overnight, our financial wherewithal increases by more than 30%.

00:31:19.540 It's a deal!

00:31:21.760 Yeah, I'm definitely open to hearing some negotiations.

00:31:24.540 Because at this point, the way things are going, Canada is not looking very good.

00:31:28.620 And it hasn't been for quite a while.

00:31:30.100 So, yeah, I'm definitely open to hearing more and having those negotiations.

00:31:37.120 And Danielle Smith, it really is like the light in all of this darkness, who's the one seeming, who seems to be really leading the charge and leading the country through this tumultuous time.

00:31:48.500 And she says here it's time for Team Canada, you know, quote unquote, which she didn't join, to get serious about domestic energy security, nation building, and trying to grow our economy.

00:32:01.100 This podcast is brought to you by Rebel News.

00:32:06.080 That's right.

00:32:07.020 So if you want to support us, why not do it in a win-win fashion?

00:32:11.660 By shopping for yourself, one of my favorite things to do, head to rebelnewsstore.com to pick the patriotic gear that pleases your heart.

00:32:21.600 And while you're there, use coupon code DREA10 to save while you do.

00:32:25.760 Well, Olivia is trying to find that.

00:32:55.760 So maybe we should just cut to that quick video of Premier Tim Houston.

00:33:00.760 The jurisdiction has unique potential impacts.

00:33:05.360 But certainly during the discussion, you know, I called for the Prime Minister and asked the federal government to immediately approve the Energy East project.

00:33:15.820 That's something that they could do, and I encourage them to do.

00:33:18.020 There was support from a number of premiers on that as well.

00:33:20.960 If we needed more urgency to strengthen our country, we got it, right?

00:33:25.480 So we need to make sure that we have incredible natural resources.

00:33:28.820 We have to recognize that and tap into that potential.

00:33:33.180 That's a strength we have as a country.

00:33:34.660 It's certainly a strength we have as a province.

00:33:36.800 Well, diversification, it kind of goes without saying that we need to make sure that there are customers all around the world for what we have.

00:33:44.780 And the United States is a huge market, and it's been a convenient customer.

00:33:50.720 But now is the time to also, of course, look for diversification, not only across our country, but around the world.

00:33:58.340 And, you know, a project like the Energy East could move resources from the West to the East and then on to Europe.

00:34:04.240 Like, it will open up incredible opportunities for our country.

00:34:08.220 Well, Tamara Ugolini, knock me down with a feather.

00:34:11.280 Suddenly, pipelines aren't the devil's playthings anymore.

00:34:15.940 Suddenly, there's some merit into pipelines transferring our energy wealth.

00:34:22.300 Like I said, the world is changing every day since inauguration.

00:34:25.940 Well, and there's a progressive conservative of Nova Scotia, you know, and taking such a drastic turn or taking a different path than our apparent progressive conservative government, Doug Ford.

00:34:39.620 I mean, it's just if we want to pretend like we're on a unified Team Canada approach, let's at least get it together and try to have some unified messaging here.

00:34:48.220 We have Alberta doing one thing, Quebec siding with them, Nova Scotia coming in and siding somewhat with some of what they say.

00:34:56.680 And then we have Doug Ford, who's just like a fish out of water, flip-flopping every which way, doesn't know where he's going to land.

00:35:04.660 And so, well, let's just call an election and hope that the riffraff sorts itself out, I guess.

00:35:11.180 It's absolutely absurd.

00:35:13.420 There's no other word for it.

00:35:14.720 I keep coming back to absurd.

00:35:15.840 And by the way, on the issue of flip-flop Ford and our February 27th election, Tamara Ugolini, I forgot to ask your prediction.

00:35:25.400 Is it a lock?

00:35:27.020 Maybe another majority government, perhaps a reduced majority government?

00:35:31.500 Or is this going to be David Peterson 2.0, a really bad Tuesday morning surprise after a lot of pissed off Ontarians register their wrath?

00:35:43.440 Or his supporters simply stay at home?

00:35:46.080 What do you think?

00:35:47.220 Yeah, well, if we had 40% voter turnout last time at the actual scheduled election,

00:35:52.540 I'm really nervous to know what the voter turnout would be this time.

00:35:56.560 I don't even know that I've heard any comments from Bonnie Crombie or Stiles about what their plan of attack would be with this looming trade war.

00:36:07.720 I really don't want to even think what it would be like trying to negotiate with those two individuals.

00:36:16.500 I mean, Ford has tons of faults, don't get me wrong.

00:36:19.660 And he's certainly not my first choice.

00:36:21.980 But the other choices aren't any better.

00:36:24.960 And that's the problem inherently with politics is that sometimes you just have to choose the one that's not the that's the least bad.

00:36:33.740 Right.

00:36:34.060 I think that they're all bad.

00:36:36.280 And we're left at the end of the day trying to scramble to pick one that is the not so bad option.

00:36:42.200 Yeah, it's so hard to say because Toronto always votes so much differently than some of the rest of the province.

00:36:49.400 I mean, I live in a rural municipality where it's very heavy conservative, both on a provincial and of course, we have a federal conservative MP here as well.

00:37:01.200 And so it's it's hard to gauge the temperature in other regions because Toronto feels like such an outside world, even though it's only 100 kilometers away.

00:37:10.380 Yeah. And, you know, Tamara Gullini, I agree with you with all the choices being bad.

00:37:15.420 It reminds me of the tagline for the movie Aliens versus Predator, which was no matter which side wins, we lose.

00:37:23.920 So, yeah.

00:37:25.580 But having said that, and I'm going to be absolutely open and transparent, I have never voted for Doug Ford as premier of Ontario.

00:37:35.680 I was an early adopter of, I guess you can call it Ford phobia, going back to 2018.

00:37:43.680 And the reason is, was Tanya Granik-Allen, who was a candidate to lead the party, a bit of a long shot.

00:37:53.200 But during the convention, and this is after they ousted sneaky Patrick Brown with less than six months to go before an election,

00:38:01.540 Tanya Granik-Allen at the last minute had her delegates vote for Doug Ford to be leader.

00:38:08.200 If those votes did not go to him, guess what?

00:38:11.780 The premier back then and the leader of the party would have been Christine Elliott because it was something like a 1%.

00:38:18.960 It was razor thin, and it was thanks to Tanya Granik-Allen, who was going to run as an MPP in Mississauga.

00:38:25.680 And then, and then to Mary Gullini, guess what?

00:38:30.200 Some ancient social media posts emerge from Tanya Granik-Allen.

00:38:36.820 I thought they were nothing burgers, but, you know, they were a little two-third rail for the party apparatus.

00:38:43.340 And she was thrown under the bus, the kingmaker for Doug Ford, in a heartbeat, treated like a used Kleenex.

00:38:53.560 You know, you were useful when I had to blow my nose, and now that I have, I throw you in the trash.

00:39:00.000 And I could not take that.

00:39:02.400 And I just never, I realized, you know, my vote not going to the PC party wasn't going to make a tinker's dam.

00:39:12.000 But ethically and morally, I could not vote for this party after I saw that.

00:39:18.740 I haven't voted for this party since then.

00:39:21.300 I will not be voting for this party next month.

00:39:25.240 That's just how I feel, you know.

00:39:27.060 And I know, I get the idea of voting strategically, and I get what you're saying.

00:39:32.600 Well, would Bonnie Crombie Liberals and Merit-style NDPers, would they be perhaps even worse?

00:39:39.520 Maybe.

00:39:40.400 But I subscribe to ethics and morality, Tamara.

00:39:45.620 And that's why I can't vote for this horrible party.

00:39:49.100 Yeah, I wonder if we'll see anything more from the New Blue Party or the, I think it was the Ontario First,

00:39:55.060 or Ontario, the Ontario Party.

00:39:57.880 I haven't heard anything from them since the 2022 election.

00:40:01.820 So I wonder if some of those other parties will come out of the woodwork,

00:40:04.980 and whether or not, you know, they would even garner enough support to get even an inkling on the map

00:40:10.700 is a conversation for another day.

00:40:13.220 But we have another...

00:40:14.160 Well, the answer there, Tamara, is no.

00:40:16.280 Yeah.

00:40:16.520 And by the way, I'm not denouncing those parties.

00:40:18.740 There's a lot of good people with those parties.

00:40:20.740 But it is a Herculean effort for a startup party to get elected.

00:40:28.140 And we need look no further than Maxine Bernier, the leader of the People's Party of Canada,

00:40:35.080 who I love, you know, as a person, 100%.

00:40:38.820 But Maxine and his father, they held that Quebec riding, I think it was for something like 35 years combined.

00:40:47.260 And he could not get elected in that what was originally, or used to be, a Bernier stronghold.

00:40:57.160 And so with all that brand equity, and Maxine Bernier can't get elected,

00:41:03.280 how can somebody with the likes of the New Blue Party or Ontario First get elected?

00:41:09.500 And I'm not, again, I'm not criticizing the parties or the people or their platforms.

00:41:14.160 They're great.

00:41:15.420 But it's just a reality of our political system.

00:41:18.860 Yeah, I see a tweet already being put out here by the New Blue Party of Ontario, just 45, 40 minutes ago, not even.

00:41:29.660 It says, Doug Ford spent billions of taxpayer dollars making sure PC and liberal lobbyists got rich off of COVID,

00:41:37.700 and he did it without a mandate.

00:41:39.000 Now he wants to do it again by calling an election when people aren't paying attention

00:41:42.520 because they are more concerned with staying warm.

00:41:45.020 On February 27th, vote New Blue.

00:41:48.000 So they're already coming out.

00:41:49.980 And you know what?

00:41:50.660 That is a fantastic point.

00:41:52.740 And the leader of the New Blue Party, Tamara, as you know, is Jim Carahalios.

00:41:58.420 And he's a very smart man.

00:42:02.800 And yeah, maybe even if it means a protest vote, putting a New Blue sign on my lawn, so be it.

00:42:10.700 And I'm sorry, I just can't vote for the Doug Ford PCs.

00:42:15.920 Yeah, they've flip-flopped too many times.

00:42:17.880 We have another quick super chat here from Ryerson Gary, and then I'm going to get into a Rumble ad read.

00:42:23.780 So Ryerson Gary says,

00:42:25.540 Pickering councillor Lisa Robinson can't get a seconder on a motion to ban bribes.

00:42:31.280 In fact, she has had three suspensions without pay on similar issues.

00:42:35.200 Why no Doug Ford and conservative support?

00:42:38.980 I mean, they're, yeah, it speaks for itself.

00:42:41.620 To Mary Ugolini, it's much worse than what Ryerson Gary points out.

00:42:47.700 Not only is the province of Ontario moving in to lay down the law with the city of Pickering,

00:42:56.560 which is the most censorious municipality in all of Canada,

00:43:02.200 but they are right now, and maybe it'll die on the table because of this election call,

00:43:09.040 looking at legislation that will have municipalities remove duly elected councillors,

00:43:18.440 like Lisa Robinson, in fact, you could call this the Lisa Robinson rule,

00:43:22.380 without going through that messy business or what's it called again?

00:43:25.420 Oh yeah, an election.

00:43:26.780 So just by a royal decree, if a councillor is making too many insensitive comments,

00:43:35.460 asking too many impolite questions, off with her head.

00:43:40.600 And that is what the Doug Ford PCs believe in, that level of censorship.

00:43:46.060 Oh, and in the height of hypocrisy to Mary Ugolini,

00:43:50.260 that legislation would only apply to municipalities.

00:43:55.480 It wouldn't apply to Ontario MPPs.

00:43:58.400 Oh, no, no, no, no.

00:43:59.980 They're cut from a different cloth.

00:44:02.800 They are so much superior and intellectually pure than those municipal people.

00:44:10.180 Give me a break.

00:44:11.280 Thank you, Ryerson Gary, for reminding me as if I needed another reason not to vote for the PCs.

00:44:18.820 That's right.

00:44:19.460 Thanks so much, Ryerson Gary.

00:44:20.640 Appreciate that.

00:44:22.100 All right.

00:44:22.660 So we have a quick ad read here from 5G Free.

00:44:26.920 I want to talk about the things that people are afraid to say out loud.

00:44:30.480 Who is in control of America's nukes?

00:44:32.580 It's not Biden.

00:44:33.820 Meanwhile, we have Russian ships off the coast of Florida and full-blown wars in Ukraine and Israel.

00:44:38.600 The world is at its most unstable point since World War II,

00:44:42.600 and with nuclear weapons, the stakes are 10 times higher.

00:44:45.820 How do people like you and I stay safe?

00:44:48.420 Every prepper needs to have Radio Guard Ace,

00:44:51.180 the only FDA-approved drug to treat radioactive fallout.

00:44:55.480 Only the feds had it until now.

00:44:57.300 That's why Rumble partnered with 5G Free,

00:45:00.040 the only company in the world that has a supply of Radio Guard Ace

00:45:04.080 and the ability to prescribe it pro-fill-act-licky.

00:45:07.800 Prophylactically.

00:45:10.380 Get their radiation energy kit with Radio Guard Ace,

00:45:14.260 potassium iodide, Zofran, and a Geiger counter.

00:45:19.400 There's simply no other tool in your arsenal to protect against a radioactive threat.

00:45:24.940 Go to 5Gfree.com, code STUDIO to save 15% and get yours today.

00:45:31.840 There you have it.

00:45:32.660 We'll go to a quick ad break and come back to some more crazy happenings within the federal government.

00:45:38.020 Canadians know the National Anthem.

00:45:41.980 They stand in silence to remember those who died for this country.

00:45:46.440 But not every Canadian knows their rights and freedoms.

00:45:49.980 The Freedom Passport will change that.

00:45:52.420 It looks and feels like a Canadian passport,

00:45:55.320 but contains the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms

00:45:58.480 in a portable, easy-to-read format.

00:46:01.840 The Freedom Passport.

00:46:03.380 Order one for yourself and for all the freedom lovers that you love

00:46:07.540 at freedompassport.ca.

00:46:09.740 Yeah, maybe we can use the Freedom Passport to, you know, go over the border into the U.S.

00:46:19.420 should we become the 51st state.

00:46:21.580 We don't need the actual official Canadian passport.

00:46:26.200 Which looks like such a joke now after Trudeau remodeled it.

00:46:30.420 I think, are they talking about going back to the original design?

00:46:34.860 I haven't heard, but it would be really nice to do that.

00:46:37.300 Although, I did get a 10-year passport, and unfortunately, it's the new one.

00:46:40.500 So, I don't know what happens to us.

00:46:42.360 We're up Creek without a paddle, I suppose.

00:46:45.240 100%.

00:46:45.640 So, well, why don't we move along?

00:46:51.740 What's that, Olivia?

00:46:54.520 This next report here we have from Alexa Levois, our Quebec correspondent.

00:46:59.300 We chatted a little bit about it on the live stream on Wednesday,

00:47:02.120 about how she was manhandled out of a Trudeau cabinet retreat.

00:47:07.300 This past weekend.

00:47:08.320 And we said we would have more to come about the targeting that her and our videographer,

00:47:14.680 Guillaume Waugh, then faced trying to leave this event.

00:47:19.420 And we have a quick little, well, it's not quick,

00:47:22.680 but we'll show you a quick snippet of the full video,

00:47:26.100 which went out, I believe, last night,

00:47:28.240 where you see exactly how Alexa and Guillaume were treated by the Quebec Provincial Police.

00:47:34.080 But let's play this little snippet first.

00:47:37.100 Alexa Levois for Rebel News, reporting from Montebello, Quebec.

00:47:42.320 Today, I'm bringing you a quick update on how the police are operating here in the province.

00:47:49.120 I came to Montebello to cover the liberal retreat taking place here.

00:47:53.980 We brought our truck to display a clear message.

00:47:57.700 We won an election now, and it's time to hands-off Alberta.

00:48:02.500 For a while, our truck was parked peacefully,

00:48:06.340 and two provincial police seemed to keep an eye on it.

00:48:10.200 Me and my colleague were at the retreat,

00:48:13.300 but eventually, we were asked to leave the property.

00:48:17.140 We complied without issue and continued our coverage

00:48:22.420 by doing a stand-up nearby before driving around the city.

00:48:27.640 Then, as you might expect, the police pulled us over.

00:48:32.960 Initially, they cited something that led to no infraction and no fines,

00:48:38.420 but since I was filming, it was obvious that the officer tried to dig for something to use against us.

00:48:49.300 That's when they accused me of not wearing a seatbelt,

00:48:54.580 a claim that is absolutely false.

00:48:57.800 This was a blatant attempt to target and punish me for doing journalism

00:49:04.160 that challenges their narrative,

00:49:07.660 meaning the narrative that aligns with the liberals.

00:49:12.420 After a back-and-forth, they issued me two fines.

00:49:17.320 One was for allegedly not wearing a seatbelt,

00:49:21.340 which also came with three demerit points.

00:49:24.760 The second was for refusing to identify myself,

00:49:29.880 which is also untrue.

00:49:32.140 I made it clear that I wanted to speak with my lawyer,

00:49:36.260 a right I have when facing charges.

00:49:40.320 Moreover, as a passenger, I wasn't required to present ID.

00:49:45.800 I provided my name,

00:49:47.920 and they already had all the information they needed about me.

00:49:52.600 It's clear.

00:49:54.260 This wasn't that pimp.

00:49:55.780 For anybody who wants to see the full video,

00:49:57.860 it's posted on X,

00:49:58.880 and then, of course, our YouTube Rumble and Rebel News website.

00:50:02.580 But I didn't realize in Quebec,

00:50:04.580 so the law is different there,

00:50:06.460 that if you're a passenger and you get caught without a seatbelt,

00:50:10.200 which if you watch that full video,

00:50:12.540 you actually hear Alexa and Guillaume both buckle themselves

00:50:16.180 because Alexa was filming the whole time.

00:50:18.060 Alexa's great like that.

00:50:19.060 She's always ruling

00:50:20.500 because you never know what's going to happen,

00:50:22.600 and this is a great example of why you keep ruling

00:50:26.520 because you just don't know what you're going to need to prove

00:50:29.580 or show video of in the future.

00:50:31.720 And so Alexa was filming the whole interaction.

00:50:34.800 When they're leaving the truck,

00:50:35.900 they get into their vehicle

00:50:36.880 because they could see that the police were watching them,

00:50:39.340 and you can hear them both buckle their seatbelts.

00:50:42.140 But regardless,

00:50:42.860 I didn't realize that in Quebec,

00:50:44.760 as a passenger,

00:50:45.620 if you aren't buckled,

00:50:47.600 you'll get a fine,

00:50:49.740 but you'll also lose demerit points.

00:50:51.280 So we don't have that in Ontario.

00:50:52.720 You have to be a driver.

00:50:54.820 Only drivers can lose demerit points.

00:50:56.920 But as a passenger,

00:50:58.040 she can as well,

00:50:59.060 which is just crazy.

00:51:00.300 And we know the Quebec police are notorious

00:51:02.420 for abusing their powers.

00:51:04.800 But Tamara,

00:51:05.580 it's a moot point.

00:51:06.840 They were buckled up.

00:51:08.940 There was no crime.

00:51:10.460 This is Banana Republic garbage.

00:51:13.440 Well, of course,

00:51:14.100 we can't grow bananas in Canada,

00:51:15.640 so let's call our once proud dominion

00:51:17.760 a maple syrup republic.

00:51:19.660 It's kind of like you're in some,

00:51:21.280 you know,

00:51:22.260 tin pot dictatorship,

00:51:23.920 and the cop there pulls you over

00:51:25.800 and says,

00:51:26.920 sir,

00:51:27.620 you have a broken taillight,

00:51:29.000 and you get out of your car and go,

00:51:30.160 really?

00:51:30.700 And where?

00:51:32.080 And then the cop takes out a hammer

00:51:33.600 and smashes the taillight.

00:51:35.320 There.

00:51:35.960 What are you going to do about it?

00:51:37.560 But then again,

00:51:38.260 if you don't want the ticket,

00:51:39.540 maybe as you pass your documents to me,

00:51:42.600 there'll be some do-re-mi.

00:51:44.720 This is garbage, right?

00:51:46.960 And it's happening too often.

00:51:49.600 And when I see Alexa like that,

00:51:51.460 I mean,

00:51:52.080 the other clip earlier of her getting,

00:51:54.360 you know,

00:51:54.860 manhandled out of the resort by that soy boy,

00:51:57.760 unless you're under arrest,

00:51:59.320 you can't make contact with people.

00:52:02.740 You know,

00:52:02.960 I think of,

00:52:03.740 you know,

00:52:04.040 that great line by Charlton Heston

00:52:06.020 in the first Planet of the Apes movie,

00:52:08.820 Tamara,

00:52:09.280 get your stinking paws off me,

00:52:12.820 you damn dirty ape.

00:52:14.960 You know,

00:52:15.360 that's how I feel when I see that.

00:52:17.900 And,

00:52:18.360 you know,

00:52:19.360 they say misery loves company.

00:52:21.120 I say it ain't true.

00:52:22.220 I went through this same bullshite

00:52:24.520 earlier this month

00:52:25.520 with Uncle Fester of the Mounties,

00:52:27.920 a.k.a.

00:52:28.520 Greg Dumashell,

00:52:30.280 making a false police report

00:52:33.860 to the OPP

00:52:34.720 saying that

00:52:36.400 Lincoln Jay and I

00:52:38.460 blew through

00:52:39.520 a red light.

00:52:41.360 His words,

00:52:42.220 right?

00:52:43.360 Yeah,

00:52:44.140 too bad,

00:52:44.660 Uncle Fester.

00:52:45.360 We have a dash cam

00:52:46.440 that showed you're lying.

00:52:48.060 Again,

00:52:48.560 this is the guy a year ago

00:52:50.060 that physically assaulted me

00:52:51.940 and falsely arrested me.

00:52:54.640 And speaking of the OPP,

00:52:56.240 let us not forget last May

00:52:57.740 when I was arrested

00:52:59.140 for being

00:53:00.280 at a public rugby field,

00:53:02.960 the official charge

00:53:04.180 was trespassing,

00:53:05.540 but the real agenda

00:53:07.640 was they didn't want me

00:53:08.920 to ask a transgender

00:53:10.460 so-called man

00:53:12.440 pretending to be a female

00:53:14.340 and injuring real females.

00:53:16.800 There is your Canadian police,

00:53:19.420 you know,

00:53:19.980 at work.

00:53:21.200 And Tamara,

00:53:21.820 it breaks my heart

00:53:23.240 because I like to think

00:53:24.820 we back the blue

00:53:25.860 and we do back the blue,

00:53:27.060 but there are rotten cops

00:53:28.480 and there are rotten police services

00:53:30.740 with rotten cultures

00:53:32.620 and you just saw it

00:53:34.280 with the Quebec Provincial Police

00:53:36.180 with Alexa

00:53:37.200 and you can't

00:53:39.580 mollycoddle these guys.

00:53:41.980 Dumachel,

00:53:42.660 I am absolutely shocked

00:53:44.480 that he is not

00:53:46.140 on at least desk duty

00:53:47.700 as opposed to being

00:53:49.060 fired outright.

00:53:50.400 Officer Bubbles,

00:53:51.420 another thug

00:53:52.360 on the Toronto Police Service

00:53:54.240 that arrested this

00:53:55.600 diminutive lady

00:53:56.960 for blowing bubbles,

00:53:58.320 claimed it was assault.

00:53:59.780 He's not being fired.

00:54:01.160 He's being promoted.

00:54:02.620 I believe he's a sergeant

00:54:03.720 right now.

00:54:04.980 And, you know,

00:54:05.980 is anything going to happen

00:54:07.080 to those cops lying,

00:54:09.580 openly lying

00:54:10.440 about seatbelts?

00:54:12.120 We want two things

00:54:13.400 from our police,

00:54:14.100 don't we?

00:54:14.880 A, uphold the law.

00:54:16.860 B, tell the truth.

00:54:19.040 Right?

00:54:19.760 Especially when you're

00:54:20.920 on the witness stand.

00:54:22.120 That is the worst

00:54:23.400 kind of lie

00:54:24.140 because these are

00:54:25.540 our guardians

00:54:26.080 and if they lie,

00:54:27.500 they can put you away

00:54:28.640 for a long, long time.

00:54:30.780 So, I can hardly wait

00:54:32.500 to see when we get

00:54:33.820 our day in court

00:54:34.900 with Alexa on this one.

00:54:36.620 You know,

00:54:37.340 I can internally take it,

00:54:39.600 Tamara,

00:54:40.240 I don't know about you,

00:54:41.240 but when I see my colleagues

00:54:42.880 bullied this way,

00:54:44.640 especially by those

00:54:45.620 in authority,

00:54:46.680 my blood boils.

00:54:49.540 Yeah,

00:54:50.020 and where are

00:54:50.620 all of these

00:54:51.280 so-called advocates

00:54:52.220 who are saying,

00:54:53.540 you know,

00:54:53.860 women journalists

00:54:54.580 are being targeted

00:54:55.680 and all the violence

00:54:57.380 and the hate

00:54:58.220 and the harassment

00:54:58.920 and then you see

00:55:00.000 your female colleague,

00:55:02.020 journalist,

00:55:02.540 be physically removed

00:55:04.580 and manhandled

00:55:05.500 by Trudeau's staffers,

00:55:08.520 right?

00:55:08.740 This isn't,

00:55:09.600 these aren't even

00:55:10.220 security guards.

00:55:11.380 It's nothing to do

00:55:11.920 with the property owner

00:55:12.860 asking her to leave

00:55:13.780 and she won't

00:55:14.500 or trespass.

00:55:15.600 There's no police.

00:55:16.860 These are staffers

00:55:18.240 manhandling a journalist

00:55:20.120 who is quite literally

00:55:22.520 just trying to ask

00:55:23.640 the question,

00:55:24.500 why aren't you

00:55:25.340 calling an election?

00:55:27.440 And this is the way

00:55:28.500 that they're treated

00:55:29.060 and radio silence crickets

00:55:30.720 from all these

00:55:31.400 supposed advocacy groups.

00:55:32.840 It's astounding.

00:55:33.800 Great point.

00:55:35.800 Canadian Civil Liberties

00:55:37.120 Association,

00:55:38.560 Penn Canada,

00:55:39.880 Canadian Association

00:55:40.740 for Journalists

00:55:41.820 for Free Expression.

00:55:43.540 Where the hell

00:55:44.080 are you people?

00:55:45.420 Are you that politicized?

00:55:47.580 Governor General

00:55:48.400 Mary Simons

00:55:49.320 who hosted a media,

00:55:52.240 I forget what it was

00:55:53.100 called exactly,

00:55:54.100 but it was denouncing,

00:55:55.380 you know,

00:55:55.920 violence and hatred

00:55:57.240 against women

00:55:58.160 in the media space.

00:55:59.900 Just last year,

00:56:00.760 she hosted this whole

00:56:01.820 panel about it

00:56:02.740 funded by our tax dollars

00:56:04.540 and, nope,

00:56:06.200 radio silence

00:56:06.780 from all of them.

00:56:07.600 But I really liked

00:56:08.400 Joe Warmington's

00:56:09.440 take on it.

00:56:10.080 The,

00:56:10.580 he's our friend

00:56:12.620 from the Toronto Sun.

00:56:14.540 He said,

00:56:16.620 he calls it

00:56:17.060 a police state,

00:56:17.900 point blank,

00:56:18.700 tags Justin Trudeau

00:56:20.360 and Francois Legault,

00:56:21.400 the Premier of Quebec

00:56:22.140 in there.

00:56:22.940 He says,

00:56:23.340 if Alexa Lavoie

00:56:24.200 had been an illegal

00:56:25.340 crossing at Roxham Road,

00:56:27.700 they would have

00:56:28.160 carried her bags.

00:56:29.420 Yep.

00:56:29.720 But instead to

00:56:30.860 please a clinging

00:56:32.020 to power

00:56:32.540 Prime Minister

00:56:33.080 in government,

00:56:33.900 they make up a charge

00:56:34.940 the way Trudeau

00:56:35.780 made up the Emergencies Act.

00:56:37.500 Police abusing

00:56:38.060 their position

00:56:38.720 is a serious matter.

00:56:40.040 This is how

00:56:40.500 they do it in Cuba.

00:56:42.200 It's a sign

00:56:42.740 of a failing country.

00:56:44.840 Donald Trump

00:56:45.380 sees the imbalance

00:56:46.160 toward conservatives.

00:56:47.500 Canada needs an election

00:56:48.900 and that's quite literally

00:56:50.200 what Alexa was asking Trudeau

00:56:52.060 is,

00:56:52.800 why aren't you

00:56:53.200 calling an election?

00:56:54.360 But Joe Warmington,

00:56:55.440 who I love

00:56:55.980 like a brother,

00:56:56.920 Tamara,

00:56:57.900 he is the statistical

00:56:59.680 anomaly out there

00:57:00.780 when it comes

00:57:01.360 to mainstream media.

00:57:02.800 There should be

00:57:03.300 an avalanche

00:57:04.280 of tweets

00:57:05.060 just like that one.

00:57:07.060 And by the way,

00:57:07.600 since Joe Warmington

00:57:09.180 is going to bat

00:57:10.160 for us,

00:57:10.920 I'll go to bat

00:57:11.480 for him.

00:57:11.900 I urge our viewers

00:57:12.920 to read his column

00:57:14.480 of yesterday.

00:57:15.320 I believe the headline

00:57:16.340 was simply

00:57:17.040 broken.

00:57:18.240 It is an inventory

00:57:19.460 of what the

00:57:20.960 Justin Trudeau

00:57:21.760 liberals

00:57:22.140 have done to Canada.

00:57:23.800 It's beautifully written

00:57:25.360 and,

00:57:26.500 wow,

00:57:27.420 if you

00:57:28.140 needed a reminder

00:57:29.540 and certainly

00:57:31.320 we don't

00:57:31.820 when we go

00:57:32.160 to the gas pump

00:57:33.080 and the grocery store

00:57:34.240 of how bad

00:57:34.980 things are

00:57:35.700 after 10 years

00:57:37.100 of this vandal

00:57:38.220 in the Prime Minister's office,

00:57:40.040 if you need a reminder,

00:57:41.600 read Joe Warmington's

00:57:42.720 column broken.

00:57:43.960 It's really,

00:57:45.720 it's a shattering

00:57:47.460 piece of journalism.

00:57:49.280 And Alberta Dawn

00:57:50.380 gives us

00:57:50.940 a $5

00:57:51.560 rumble rant.

00:57:52.940 Thank you so much.

00:57:53.860 He says,

00:57:54.400 premiers,

00:57:54.980 or she,

00:57:55.380 I don't want to assume

00:57:55.960 your gender,

00:57:57.000 premiers should have

00:57:58.300 been meeting

00:57:58.880 with their U.S.

00:58:00.140 counterpart

00:58:00.500 as soon as it was

00:58:01.500 obvious Trump

00:58:02.260 would win.

00:58:03.280 Trump is promising

00:58:04.180 red carpet service

00:58:05.140 for any company

00:58:06.100 that brings

00:58:06.860 a billion dollars.

00:58:08.300 Yeah,

00:58:08.780 you'd think

00:58:09.560 being proactive

00:58:10.420 might have worked

00:58:11.360 in some people's favour

00:58:12.380 but

00:58:12.820 our leaders

00:58:14.780 don't think that way.

00:58:16.380 No,

00:58:16.840 and

00:58:17.200 at the House

00:58:18.760 of,

00:58:19.120 at Parliament Hill,

00:58:20.680 Tamara,

00:58:21.120 the lights are on

00:58:21.840 but nobody's home

00:59:02.120 The lights are off

00:59:04.900 and no one's home.

00:59:06.260 It's just

00:59:06.900 dead silence

00:59:08.080 there.

00:59:08.860 It's,

00:59:09.160 it's,

00:59:09.940 it's really,

00:59:10.960 it's not obviously

00:59:12.380 in the best interest

00:59:13.000 of Canadians.

00:59:14.300 Trudeau,

00:59:14.900 this is clearly

00:59:15.640 political posturing.

00:59:16.760 Mark Miller,

00:59:17.460 I think it was,

00:59:17.980 yeah,

00:59:18.100 it was Mark Miller

00:59:18.680 just the other day

00:59:19.540 confirmed

00:59:20.080 that this was

00:59:21.620 to buy the Liberals'

00:59:22.460 time to choose

00:59:23.320 Trudeau's successor.

00:59:24.640 So,

00:59:25.380 this isn't about

00:59:25.960 what's best for Canadians.

00:59:26.920 How Governor General

00:59:28.120 Mary Simons

00:59:28.900 ever agreed

00:59:30.260 to proroguing

00:59:31.020 Parliament

00:59:31.380 in such

00:59:32.200 a tumultuous

00:59:32.900 time

00:59:33.400 is beyond me.

00:59:35.400 Shows how

00:59:35.800 compromised

00:59:36.260 and self-serving

00:59:37.380 all of them are.

00:59:39.720 And then,

00:59:40.240 you know,

00:59:40.580 meanwhile,

00:59:41.340 we have this

00:59:42.480 paralyzed Parliament,

00:59:44.300 no parliamentary

00:59:45.000 business,

00:59:45.740 anything that was

00:59:46.280 already on the

00:59:47.000 docket

00:59:47.300 is now off

00:59:48.240 because of the

00:59:49.060 prorogation

00:59:49.600 of Parliament.

00:59:50.480 but we have

00:59:51.840 one of our

00:59:52.880 largest bureaucracies

00:59:53.920 and most

00:59:54.540 difficult

00:59:55.180 to deal

00:59:55.920 with bureaucracy,

00:59:56.920 the Canadian

00:59:57.300 Revenue Agency,

00:59:58.240 the CRA,

00:59:59.420 is saying

01:00:00.340 that they

01:00:01.040 are going

01:00:01.520 to just

01:00:02.120 go ahead

01:00:02.720 with the

01:00:03.720 proposed

01:00:04.780 capital gains

01:00:05.660 tax,

01:00:06.280 even though

01:00:07.000 it hasn't

01:00:08.160 been approved

01:00:08.620 by Parliament.

01:00:09.180 and so

01:00:09.940 I have

01:00:12.180 the piece

01:00:12.700 that we

01:00:13.160 wrote up

01:00:13.580 just a couple

01:00:14.000 days ago

01:00:14.640 where the

01:00:15.900 Canadian

01:00:16.240 Taxpayers

01:00:16.820 Federation

01:00:17.340 is taking

01:00:18.920 the CRA

01:00:19.480 to court

01:00:20.620 over this

01:00:21.460 capital gains

01:00:22.240 hike

01:00:22.940 and fighting

01:00:24.620 it based

01:00:25.040 on the

01:00:25.860 fact that

01:00:26.380 it's

01:00:26.700 unconstitutional

01:00:27.620 to go ahead

01:00:28.380 and do this

01:00:29.000 because it

01:00:29.460 hasn't been

01:00:29.980 properly approved

01:00:31.280 and voted

01:00:31.820 through our

01:00:32.860 parliamentary system,

01:00:33.680 which is at a

01:00:34.560 complete standstill

01:00:35.440 and any new

01:00:36.320 business would

01:00:36.920 now have to

01:00:37.440 be reintroduced

01:00:38.420 when Parliament

01:00:39.040 is up and

01:00:39.800 functioning again,

01:00:40.440 which I believe

01:00:41.280 when that happens

01:00:42.160 there will be a

01:00:42.600 snap election

01:00:43.100 and we'll head

01:00:43.860 into new

01:00:44.800 leadership.

01:00:45.440 So all of

01:00:46.560 these different

01:00:47.120 variables aside,

01:00:48.600 how the CRA

01:00:49.300 is proceeding

01:00:49.980 to do this

01:00:51.020 is absolutely

01:00:52.540 absurd and I

01:00:53.740 think the CRA

01:00:54.360 as a whole,

01:00:55.600 that entire

01:00:56.160 bureaucracy

01:00:56.660 needs to be

01:00:57.400 completely dismantled

01:00:58.760 and investigated

01:00:59.860 because the

01:01:00.560 things that they

01:01:01.060 are doing

01:01:01.580 and the way

01:01:02.360 it's being run

01:01:03.100 is beyond

01:01:05.420 the pale

01:01:06.020 in my opinion.

01:01:07.320 100%

01:01:08.020 Tamara Ugolini,

01:01:08.920 this is an

01:01:09.820 appalling story.

01:01:11.260 I get it.

01:01:12.420 The Canadian

01:01:13.160 Revenue Agency

01:01:14.240 thinks it is

01:01:15.680 a government

01:01:16.220 onto itself.

01:01:17.620 It has

01:01:18.280 governmental

01:01:18.860 powers.

01:01:19.500 It can freeze

01:01:20.260 your bank

01:01:20.680 account or

01:01:21.740 just take

01:01:22.700 money out

01:01:23.180 of your bank

01:01:23.560 account.

01:01:24.040 I bet

01:01:24.760 Fraulein Freeland

01:01:25.760 is down with

01:01:26.540 that.

01:01:26.960 She won't

01:01:27.340 have a problem.

01:01:28.420 But the fact

01:01:29.040 is you

01:01:30.280 are the

01:01:31.360 bureaucracy.

01:01:32.480 You are not

01:01:33.380 the legislative

01:01:34.140 branch of

01:01:35.120 government.

01:01:36.460 That's the

01:01:37.640 party in

01:01:38.500 charge.

01:01:39.320 And as we

01:01:39.940 just said,

01:01:40.560 it seems like

01:01:41.080 nobody's in

01:01:41.780 charge.

01:01:42.560 You have

01:01:42.960 absolutely zero

01:01:44.420 right.

01:01:45.160 And Tamara,

01:01:45.760 I tell you,

01:01:46.540 if that court

01:01:47.700 challenge fails,

01:01:49.100 God help us

01:01:49.880 all, because

01:01:50.700 that will set a

01:01:51.580 precedent of

01:01:52.760 other bureaucracies

01:01:53.860 going, well,

01:01:54.620 yeah, you know,

01:01:55.140 it hasn't been

01:01:56.880 approved in

01:01:57.400 Parliament, but

01:01:58.160 we think they

01:01:59.140 might have,

01:01:59.980 could have,

01:02:00.460 should have

01:02:00.800 approved it,

01:02:01.420 so we're going

01:02:02.020 to enforce this

01:02:02.740 law.

01:02:03.480 No, no, it

01:02:04.380 doesn't work

01:02:04.840 that way.

01:02:06.340 Yeah, I

01:02:06.560 really like that

01:02:07.260 the Devin

01:02:08.160 Drover, the

01:02:08.820 General Counsel

01:02:09.520 for the

01:02:10.020 Canadian

01:02:10.300 Taxpayers

01:02:10.740 Federation, I'm

01:02:11.940 just going to

01:02:12.260 quote him in

01:02:12.840 this article.

01:02:13.920 He says,

01:02:14.460 there should be

01:02:14.940 no taxation

01:02:16.000 without

01:02:16.420 representation.

01:02:17.860 That's why we

01:02:18.700 are now taking

01:02:19.500 Trudeau and the

01:02:20.380 CRA to court.

01:02:21.340 Taxation without

01:02:22.080 representation is

01:02:23.380 illegal, right?

01:02:24.900 It is unlawful.

01:02:26.880 If you're being

01:02:27.640 taxed, you need

01:02:28.520 to have fair and

01:02:29.940 accurate representation.

01:02:30.640 I would argue

01:02:31.600 that on a lot

01:02:32.200 of different

01:02:32.520 levels, we

01:02:33.060 are being taxed

01:02:34.580 without representation

01:02:35.540 as it stands

01:02:36.580 right now, but

01:02:38.000 this is a

01:02:38.800 glaring instance

01:02:39.920 of that.

01:02:40.900 And yeah, if

01:02:41.280 the courts,

01:02:41.880 depending on how

01:02:42.260 the courts

01:02:42.600 go with this,

01:02:43.920 and also there's

01:02:44.580 another court

01:02:45.100 challenge where

01:02:45.920 there's been a

01:02:46.460 motion filed to

01:02:47.640 unparogue

01:02:48.700 Parliament, and

01:02:50.180 the Justice

01:02:50.940 Centre for

01:02:51.440 Constitutional

01:02:52.040 Freedoms has

01:02:52.560 filed that on

01:02:53.200 behalf of, I

01:02:53.780 know, one

01:02:54.740 lawyer, Aris

01:02:55.680 Arvanos, I

01:02:57.660 think his name

01:02:58.140 is, and

01:02:58.860 someone else on

01:03:00.420 behalf of the

01:03:00.960 two of them,

01:03:01.740 and they're

01:03:02.160 calling on the

01:03:03.640 courts to bring

01:03:05.460 Parliament back

01:03:06.160 into session

01:03:06.620 because of

01:03:07.480 such importance

01:03:08.780 and things

01:03:09.620 happening on

01:03:10.580 the world stage

01:03:11.180 with the

01:03:11.480 tariffs, and

01:03:12.920 basically just

01:03:14.860 the tariffs, and

01:03:16.620 that we need a

01:03:17.120 functioning Parliament

01:03:17.820 to do what is in

01:03:19.040 the best interest

01:03:19.560 of Canadians.

01:03:20.080 So these are two

01:03:20.700 really important

01:03:21.340 things that are

01:03:22.080 going ahead in

01:03:23.320 the Canadian

01:03:23.920 court system, and

01:03:25.460 we'll see, hopefully

01:03:27.180 they're successful, and

01:03:28.300 we could have

01:03:28.920 Parliament back

01:03:29.880 functioning sooner

01:03:30.700 rather than

01:03:31.140 later, and

01:03:32.060 this unlegislated

01:03:33.220 tax hike on

01:03:33.980 capital gains

01:03:34.720 thrown to the

01:03:35.540 wayside.

01:03:36.380 Well, if I had

01:03:37.220 to bet, Tamara

01:03:38.540 Ugolini, and

01:03:39.660 based on the

01:03:41.540 NFL playoffs last

01:03:42.760 weekend, that

01:03:43.880 didn't go so well

01:03:44.800 for me.

01:03:45.160 But anyway, if I

01:03:46.240 had to bet, I

01:03:48.380 would predict

01:03:49.360 that the

01:03:50.880 Canadian

01:03:51.200 Taxpayers

01:03:51.820 Federation

01:03:52.480 claim against

01:03:54.960 the Canadian

01:03:56.440 Revenue

01:03:56.820 Agency

01:03:57.420 implementing a

01:03:59.420 policy that's

01:04:00.180 not law, I

01:04:01.800 honestly, I'm

01:04:02.440 not a lawyer, but

01:04:03.040 I can't see how

01:04:03.880 that goes down to

01:04:04.620 defeat.

01:04:05.060 I really can't.

01:04:06.060 The other one, as

01:04:07.160 much as I think the

01:04:08.400 proroguing is

01:04:09.320 odious, especially

01:04:11.260 given the

01:04:12.200 rationale and the

01:04:13.100 reasons, I can't

01:04:15.320 see that winning.

01:04:16.120 I really can't.

01:04:16.920 I think the

01:04:17.500 Prime Minister, as

01:04:18.340 much as you may

01:04:19.880 loathe him, folks,

01:04:21.180 he is in his

01:04:21.940 power to do

01:04:22.740 this.

01:04:23.560 It's been done

01:04:24.400 before.

01:04:25.240 In fact, in the

01:04:26.060 history of Canada,

01:04:27.000 I understand only

01:04:28.400 twice has the

01:04:29.600 Governor-General

01:04:30.360 defied the

01:04:31.520 Prime Minister, and

01:04:33.320 that's just the

01:04:36.120 nature of the

01:04:36.920 beast.

01:04:37.900 So I don't

01:04:38.660 know if I

01:04:40.640 had to bet a

01:04:42.860 dollar on that

01:04:43.820 one, I'm

01:04:45.520 betting against

01:04:46.240 it, even though I

01:04:46.920 want them to

01:04:47.640 win.

01:04:48.440 So we'll see.

01:04:49.760 But how do you

01:04:51.220 feel on

01:04:52.640 the probability,

01:04:55.820 I should say,

01:04:56.300 Tamara, of

01:04:57.060 success with

01:04:58.020 either of those

01:04:58.600 cases?

01:04:59.720 Well, I think it's

01:05:00.420 really promising

01:05:01.000 that a federal

01:05:02.760 judge did expedite

01:05:04.140 that legal

01:05:04.660 challenge for the

01:05:05.680 motion to get

01:05:06.540 Parliament back in

01:05:07.460 session.

01:05:08.320 So they did

01:05:08.880 recognize that

01:05:09.860 there was a

01:05:10.680 timeliness factor

01:05:12.300 involved in the

01:05:13.740 motion to

01:05:15.940 overturn the

01:05:16.700 prorogation.

01:05:18.080 So that, to me,

01:05:19.020 signals that the

01:05:20.560 judge agrees to

01:05:21.360 some extent that

01:05:22.200 this should at

01:05:22.760 least be heard

01:05:23.540 on the merits

01:05:24.020 of the

01:05:24.300 arguments.

01:05:25.420 And that is

01:05:26.260 coming up

01:05:27.320 February 14th

01:05:28.800 and 15th.

01:05:31.000 Chief Justice

01:05:32.020 Paul Crampton

01:05:32.840 was the one

01:05:33.760 who put this

01:05:35.780 expedited this

01:05:37.260 hearing.

01:05:38.300 And we'll see,

01:05:40.140 I guess, where

01:05:40.600 that ends up.

01:05:41.160 But I think that

01:05:41.840 in and of itself

01:05:42.640 is a promising

01:05:43.300 sign.

01:05:44.060 And otherwise,

01:05:44.580 I haven't seen

01:05:45.180 the court documents

01:05:45.940 myself for the

01:05:47.200 filings done by

01:05:48.300 the Taxpayers

01:05:48.880 Federation.

01:05:49.380 But yeah,

01:05:50.160 if it all hinges

01:05:51.260 on the fact that

01:05:51.880 this is unlawful

01:05:52.840 and unconstitutional,

01:05:53.600 I don't see how

01:05:54.280 a court would be

01:05:55.380 able to decide

01:05:55.960 otherwise.

01:05:56.480 I think this is

01:05:57.040 just an example

01:05:57.740 of a bureaucracy

01:05:58.520 trying to take an

01:06:01.700 inch and get a

01:06:02.360 mile and just

01:06:03.800 see how far

01:06:04.800 they can push

01:06:05.500 things.

01:06:06.120 Because, I mean,

01:06:07.000 the CRA, I've

01:06:07.880 had to deal with

01:06:08.380 them in the past

01:06:08.960 and they are

01:06:09.420 absolutely atrocious

01:06:10.720 to deal with.

01:06:11.320 I actually had to,

01:06:12.380 I ended up having

01:06:13.000 to get my Member

01:06:13.780 of Parliament

01:06:14.160 involved because I

01:06:15.640 could not get

01:06:16.300 anywhere and I'm

01:06:16.880 very well versed

01:06:17.900 in how to advocate

01:06:18.660 and I'm very

01:06:19.720 diligent in note

01:06:20.540 taking and keeping

01:06:21.340 track of everything

01:06:22.180 and it took me

01:06:24.020 12 years.

01:06:25.880 I'm not even

01:06:26.520 joking.

01:06:27.060 The story would

01:06:27.820 shock anybody.

01:06:28.600 I'm not going to

01:06:29.020 get into it here.

01:06:29.760 But 12 years

01:06:31.180 to get resolved

01:06:31.980 with the CRA

01:06:32.700 and I still got

01:06:33.920 shafted.

01:06:34.800 Despicable.

01:06:36.200 They are an

01:06:36.840 absolutely abysmal

01:06:38.000 bureaucracy to deal

01:06:38.960 with.

01:06:39.360 They don't return

01:06:40.040 your calls.

01:06:40.700 You get pushed

01:06:41.820 around every which

01:06:42.600 way with different

01:06:43.280 case managers.

01:06:44.180 No one knows

01:06:44.920 who, what the one

01:06:46.040 before them did.

01:06:47.280 Now you can't even

01:06:48.240 deal with people

01:06:48.720 that speak English

01:06:49.840 let alone be able

01:06:51.100 to read up on your

01:06:52.720 file and know

01:06:53.480 what's going on.

01:06:54.520 And it is absurd.

01:06:55.840 And meanwhile,

01:06:56.440 you're paying them

01:06:57.440 and you're taking

01:06:58.520 time away from

01:06:59.180 whatever else,

01:06:59.880 whether you're

01:07:00.420 working or you're

01:07:01.260 at home doing

01:07:01.860 other things.

01:07:02.660 It takes hours

01:07:04.100 to reach anybody

01:07:05.460 and then you sit

01:07:05.960 on hold me,

01:07:06.940 passed around,

01:07:07.940 and they're getting

01:07:08.640 paid and I'm not

01:07:10.440 and you're not

01:07:11.340 getting anywhere.

01:07:12.160 It's a very

01:07:14.000 it's an abysmal

01:07:17.780 bureaucracy to

01:07:18.740 try to deal

01:07:19.240 with.

01:07:19.740 And Tamara

01:07:20.420 Ugolini,

01:07:21.100 I don't know the

01:07:22.160 details of your

01:07:22.820 case, but here

01:07:24.460 is the problem

01:07:25.540 and I'm sure

01:07:26.200 you are savvy

01:07:27.460 about this.

01:07:29.220 You can't lose

01:07:30.200 your temper.

01:07:31.000 You can't throw

01:07:31.900 F-bombs.

01:07:33.360 You, like,

01:07:34.540 Tamara, I would

01:07:35.440 rather deal with

01:07:36.140 the mob, okay,

01:07:37.620 on Pier 5 than

01:07:39.200 deal with somebody

01:07:40.000 at the CRA

01:07:40.940 and I'm sure

01:07:41.540 there are good

01:07:42.000 people at the

01:07:42.540 CRA.

01:07:43.000 I'm not, you

01:07:43.540 know, tarring

01:07:44.620 everyone with the

01:07:45.420 same brush, but

01:07:46.760 they have power

01:07:48.540 over your lives

01:07:49.280 and they can make

01:07:49.980 your life miserable

01:07:51.120 and I'll give you

01:07:51.780 a quick anecdote.

01:07:52.640 Many years ago

01:07:53.400 on talk radio,

01:07:54.640 I heard somebody

01:07:55.740 phone in and

01:07:57.220 this is a shocking

01:07:58.100 story and his

01:07:59.600 friend was someone

01:08:00.980 that worked with

01:08:01.700 the CRA and they

01:08:02.620 were in Hamilton,

01:08:03.440 Ontario and they

01:08:04.780 were walking down

01:08:05.660 the road and a

01:08:07.840 Porsche, a brand

01:08:09.120 new Porsche,

01:08:10.000 911, drove by

01:08:11.780 and it had a

01:08:12.360 vanity plate like

01:08:13.760 the one on your

01:08:14.420 shelf there that

01:08:15.120 says Ugolini and

01:08:17.240 what the vanity

01:08:18.300 plate said was

01:08:20.580 paid for and

01:08:23.600 the fellow who

01:08:24.640 was the CRA

01:08:25.560 employee, he

01:08:27.940 went, oh, that

01:08:30.100 is just so in

01:08:31.180 your face.

01:08:31.980 That is not

01:08:32.940 right.

01:08:33.220 That's just

01:08:33.600 flaunting your

01:08:34.440 wealth.

01:08:35.400 Guess what,

01:08:35.820 Tamara Ugolini?

01:08:36.520 that poor owner

01:08:38.380 of the Porsche

01:08:39.140 was subjected

01:08:40.580 to five years

01:08:42.140 of audits

01:08:42.900 for no reason

01:08:44.120 other than

01:08:45.240 the message

01:08:46.300 miffed

01:08:47.120 this guy who

01:08:48.500 was probably

01:08:49.300 driving a 10

01:08:50.160 year old Chevy

01:08:50.780 or whatnot.

01:08:51.300 not that to

01:08:53.200 me, you know,

01:08:54.500 shivers me

01:08:55.240 timbers.

01:08:57.080 Yeah, they'll

01:08:57.840 just get you any

01:08:58.580 which way that

01:08:59.080 they can.

01:08:59.640 That's what I've

01:09:00.140 learned with the

01:09:00.640 CRA.

01:09:02.160 And with that,

01:09:03.540 we're about seven

01:09:04.200 minutes after 2

01:09:05.580 p.m.

01:09:06.260 So I see some

01:09:08.360 work piling up

01:09:09.120 here and I

01:09:11.440 think we've run

01:09:11.900 through our

01:09:12.260 topics if there's

01:09:13.300 no more rumble

01:09:14.360 rants, not that I

01:09:15.680 see.

01:09:16.400 Okay.

01:09:17.020 We can send

01:09:18.540 everybody off to

01:09:19.200 have a great

01:09:19.560 weekend as great

01:09:20.880 as it can be

01:09:21.640 given what we've

01:09:22.620 just discussed.

01:09:23.900 Indeed, as I

01:09:25.080 like to say,

01:09:25.820 thank God it's

01:09:26.580 TGIF.

01:09:28.380 Did I get that

01:09:29.080 right?

01:09:29.840 Anyways, Tamara,

01:09:31.140 thanks for filling

01:09:32.980 in for the

01:09:34.260 sensational Sheila

01:09:35.280 Gunn-Reed, who

01:09:36.140 is still in

01:09:36.860 Davos, I do

01:09:37.660 believe.

01:09:38.260 And by the way,

01:09:38.900 I want to say to

01:09:39.500 the team, they

01:09:40.560 are knocking it

01:09:41.520 out of the park.

01:09:42.760 Those reports,

01:09:43.880 folks, if you

01:09:44.420 haven't seen them,

01:09:45.680 they are going

01:09:46.860 after the heaviest

01:09:48.200 hitters and

01:09:49.380 asking the kind

01:09:50.820 of impolite,

01:09:51.700 insensitive

01:09:52.280 questions the

01:09:53.160 mainstream media

01:09:54.020 dare not ask

01:09:55.340 these richy rich

01:09:56.660 types.

01:09:57.640 Every video has

01:09:59.000 been an absolute

01:10:00.120 home run.

01:10:01.140 So I salute my

01:10:02.380 colleagues there,

01:10:03.420 the big boss

01:10:04.040 man, Ezra

01:10:04.880 Levan,

01:10:05.280 Avi Amini,

01:10:06.940 Leapin'

01:10:07.980 Lincoln Jay,

01:10:09.200 and Sheila

01:10:10.420 the She-Devil

01:10:11.180 Gunn-Reed.

01:10:12.500 So folks,

01:10:13.660 please take a

01:10:14.500 look.

01:10:15.320 And folks,

01:10:16.580 thank you for

01:10:17.340 tuning in.

01:10:17.800 A special thank

01:10:18.600 you to those

01:10:19.680 who made a

01:10:20.460 financial contribution.

01:10:21.660 We greatly

01:10:22.160 appreciate that.

01:10:23.480 I will be back

01:10:24.600 in this chair

01:10:25.220 on Monday

01:10:26.040 with the

01:10:26.880 aforementioned

01:10:27.640 Sheila Gunn-Reed.

01:10:28.920 In the meantime,

01:10:30.060 have a great

01:10:30.580 weekend.

01:10:30.920 And as always,

01:10:32.820 stay safe and

01:10:33.880 stay sane.

01:10:35.980 America is also

01:10:37.020 a free nation

01:10:37.900 once again.

01:10:39.260 On day one,

01:10:39.920 I signed an

01:10:40.620 executive order

01:10:41.420 to stop all

01:10:42.320 government censorship.

01:10:44.020 No longer will

01:10:44.720 our government

01:10:45.280 label the speech

01:10:46.700 of our own

01:10:47.340 citizens as

01:10:48.200 misinformation

01:10:49.260 or disinformation,

01:10:50.700 which are the

01:10:52.020 favorite words

01:10:52.860 of censors

01:10:53.760 and those who

01:10:54.580 wish to stop

01:10:55.820 the free exchange

01:10:56.880 of ideas

01:10:57.500 and, frankly,

01:10:58.360 progress.

01:10:59.700 We have saved

01:11:00.660 free speech

01:11:01.940 in America,

01:11:02.920 and we've

01:11:03.380 saved it strongly.

01:11:04.760 With another

01:11:05.500 historic executive

01:11:06.640 order this week,

01:11:07.480 I also ended

01:11:08.220 the weaponization

01:11:09.100 of law enforcement

01:11:10.080 against the

01:11:11.160 American people

01:11:12.080 and, frankly,

01:11:12.800 against politicians

01:11:13.740 and restored

01:11:15.120 the fair,

01:11:15.980 equal,

01:11:16.520 and impartial

01:11:17.280 rule of law.

01:11:18.920 My administration

01:11:19.760 has taken action

01:11:20.920 to abolish

01:11:21.720 all discriminatory

01:11:23.140 diversity,

01:11:24.440 equity,

01:11:25.020 and inclusion

01:11:25.760 nonsense.

01:11:26.340 And these are

01:11:27.140 policies that

01:11:27.980 were absolute

01:11:28.720 nonsense throughout

01:11:30.460 the government

01:11:31.140 and the private

01:11:32.020 sector.

01:11:32.820 With the recent

01:11:33.820 yet somewhat

01:11:34.500 unexpected

01:11:35.200 great Supreme

01:11:36.180 Court decision

01:11:37.120 just made,

01:11:38.720 America will

01:11:39.420 once again

01:11:39.920 become a

01:11:40.460 merit-based

01:11:41.700 country.
