Rebel News Podcast - REBEL ROUNDUP ｜ Trump tariffs Feb. 1, Rebel News grills Trudeau & WEF elites, Smith blasts Liberals

00:00:00.000 Hopefully you're having a good time with this podcast, but I guarantee a better time would be

00:00:05.060 coming to Alaska with me, Drea Humphrey, and my other Rebel colleagues. You've got to find out

00:00:12.300 more at our special website, rebelnewscruise.com, but it's taking place June 18th to June 25th,

00:00:20.900 a vacation trip of a lifetime. Again, that's rebelnewscruise.com. I'll see you there.

00:00:30.000 Well, hello, everybody joining us for our Rebel News live stream. Today is Wednesday, January the 22nd,

00:00:46.520 and I am one of your co-hosts, Mary Ullini, and I'm joined by our wonderful British Columbia

00:00:52.480 correspondent, Drea Humphrey. Thanks so much for joining Drea on the live stream today. There is

00:00:58.440 so much crazy stuff happening, both in Canada and the United States. North America as a whole is just

00:01:07.260 under tumultuous socio-political times. So we're here today to chat about all of it, or most of it

00:01:14.500 rather, because an hour actually goes pretty quick when you have so much going on on the political

00:01:19.680 landscape. So for those of you who are joining us from home, we're streaming on a couple different

00:01:23.700 platforms. We are on YouTube, which is, you know, otherwise known as the censorious one. We're on

00:01:30.640 Rumble, the free speech platform that doesn't censor things that we say or do or question. And

00:01:37.300 of course, on X, which is also being coming to be known as one of the other free speech platforms. So

00:01:45.040 because we've been demonetized from YouTube for the last few years and questioning the science TM

00:01:51.400 on some things to do with masking and other COVID related science, we ask that you join us over on

00:01:59.080 Rumble. We don't want to abandon our YouTube platform because it took us so many years to build

00:02:03.740 it up. And there's a great following there. But if you head on over to Rumble, that's where you can

00:02:08.300 give us what's called a Rumble rant. And so for a roughly $5 US donation, you can have your comment to

00:02:16.300 us read on screen. And it can be a tip or a trick or just anything that your heart desires that you'd

00:02:23.020 like us to comment on or just get across on a more broad platform. Please head on over to Rumble and do

00:02:29.920 it over there. And so without further ado, we'll get right into our stream and also go through some

00:02:36.280 Rumble ads because that is a great way for us to generate a little bit of income from our live stream is 0.96

00:02:42.180 by reading those Rumble ads. And some of the things that we read like the 1775 coffee are things that

00:02:47.820 I can personally attest to. And so it's a great way for us to keep the lights on and keep our

00:02:54.020 journalism afloat because we are a 100% crowdfunded entity. And without our generous donors and some of

00:03:00.520 these other revenue streams, we wouldn't be able to bring you this work that I hold in such high regard.

00:03:06.020 I know Dre does too. And I think the rest of the team here can speak similarly. So thanks everyone in

00:03:11.620 advance for joining us over on Rumble and partaking in our stream and giving us some Rumble rants help

00:03:17.100 us get through the next hour. Because there is, as I said, so much happening and going on in the

00:03:23.180 world. But before we get into that, Dreya, just a little bit more casual. How are you doing over

00:03:28.000 there in British Columbia? Save me, please. We'll talk a little bit about why I need some saving out

00:03:34.740 here in BC. But other than that, I am doing good. So happy to be back on the show.

00:03:39.980 Yeah, it's been a while since the two of us have been together. Usually it's Sheila and David,

00:03:45.540 as many of you might know. Sheila is joining the larger team in Davos, Switzerland right now for the

00:03:53.200 annual globalist meeting of the minds at the World Economic Forum. So they're trying to scrum

00:03:59.760 the most kind of influential key players there, which is also very important work, but very pricey

00:04:05.620 work. So another reason why you should join us over on Rumble and give us some Rumble rants. 0.91

00:04:09.980 I guess we should just get right into things then. We have the Trump tariffs coming up.

00:04:17.460 Recently, our Montreal correspondent, Alexa Lavoie, was able to get into Trudeau's retreat

00:04:24.940 in the swankiest of swanky hotel chains at the Fairmont. And then we'll talk a little bit more

00:04:31.640 about the WEF situation and the, I guess, tumultuous relationship happening between Premier of Alberta,

00:04:40.020 Danielle Smith, and the rest of Canada and our US-Canada trade relations. But first and foremost,

00:04:47.020 we'll get into some liberal problems. We have the Minister of Immigration, Mark Miller,

00:04:53.000 admitting that Parliament was parodied for political reasons for the Prime Minister to be able to choose

00:04:59.140 a new leader after he both simultaneously prorogued our Parliament, which basically brought everything,

00:05:04.160 all parliamentary business, to a standstill, to a complete halt. And he also resigned as Liberal

00:05:11.620 Party leader. So until they can choose a new leader, we are basically government-less here in Canada.

00:05:17.640 And Mark Miller just confirmed that for us.

00:05:20.660 The Parliament's been prorogued because of the sclerosis that has occurred inside Parliament for

00:05:25.900 the last six months, but also for the transition to a new Prime Minister, to a new leader of the Liberal

00:05:31.520 Party. So the Parliament's been prorogued because of the sclerosis that has...

00:05:36.380 I don't think that that is why Parliament should be prorogued. The fact that the Governor-General,

00:05:43.340 Mary Simons, gave the go-ahead for Trudeau to prorogued Parliament in such an uneasy time and

00:05:50.420 landscape, as I've kind of already mentioned, is insane to me. But for them to come out and just

00:05:56.880 now all of a sudden blatantly confirm that this was for... It's basically to buy them time.

00:06:04.500 It's to buy the Liberal Party time to choose a new leader. So they're not really concerned about,

00:06:09.760 you know, our democracy and the fact that we are facing a tariff war with the United States,

00:06:17.040 our largest and closest trade ally and partner. No, this is so that it can buy the Liberals some

00:06:23.520 time to choose a new leader as they engage in leadership campaigns instead of focusing on what

00:06:29.220 is in the best and healthiest interest of Canadians and our economy.

00:06:32.680 Exactly. The absolute worst timing when Canada needs leadership the most. What are they doing?

00:06:39.420 This. Not only that, we know that Canadians want an election and they want it now. I just shared a

00:06:45.180 poll that just came out, I think it was yesterday, that shows that 77%, whether who they're voting for,

00:06:53.600 they're saying, we need leadership now. We can't have you guys going back and forth. Let's get this

00:06:58.680 organized so we can figure out how to, whether they want to work with the U.S. or I suppose

00:07:03.940 some want to fight the U.S. in this economic trade war. But 77% of Canadians are in agreeance that we

00:07:12.040 need an election now. And they're just like, yeah, for the new prime minister. It's like, no,

00:07:16.220 it should be an election yesterday.

00:07:19.500 Call an election. And we'll get to that in a few minutes, how Alexa tried to point that very 0.99

00:07:25.860 specific and pointed question to Trudeau and was subsequently, well, we'll get to it. But

00:07:32.660 first, I want to highlight the leader of the opposition, the Conservative Party leader, 0.60

00:07:37.760 Pierre Polyev, who is basically calling Trudeau, well, he is, he's calling Trudeau a loon. He says

00:07:43.760 he's the biggest loon in the Liberal government. And don't take it from me. Here's his own words. 0.97

00:07:48.800 So what's the Liberal game plan to try and save their government in the next election? Here's what it

00:07:53.460 is. They're going to pretend that they're, they've changed completely, that they've elected a new

00:07:57.880 leader who's back to normal. They're going to put in someone like Mark Carney, and they'll pretend he's

00:08:03.860 different because he looks different, right? He knows, unlike Justin, he knows how to comb his hair

00:08:09.400 and he wears normal navy blue socks and a nice suit. And he pretends to have had a corporate job.

00:08:14.560 So let's say this guy's a complete change. He's back to normal. He knows how to work a calculator.

00:08:20.720 Make no mistake. This guy is just as, if not more, radical than Justin Trudeau. And today, we got the proof.

00:08:29.380 You'll never guess who's announced he's supporting Carney. The most crazy, self-described socialist in the 0.96

00:08:36.800 government, Stephen Gilbo, the crazy carbon tax minister. This is a guy who has been arrested twice, 0.95

00:08:44.360 once for climbing on the roof of the premier of Alberta to protest against the energy sector,

00:08:49.760 a second time for climbing the CN Tower. He wants to ban road building, nuclear power, wants to shut down

00:08:58.640 the forestry sector because he says that's the only way to save the caribou. He's against hydroelectric

00:09:04.580 dams. And most important of all, he said he would resign from the Trudeau cabinet if there was even

00:09:11.740 one more exemption from the carbon tax. He wants the carbon tax to apply on all fossil fuel energy

00:09:18.240 and has said he would end his career if it did not go ahead. Now, this is important because it means

00:09:25.020 that if Carney were not privately committing to him behind the scenes, that he will keep the carbon tax,

00:09:31.740 then Gilbo would not be supporting him. Obviously, they have a carbon tax compact to keep and increase

00:09:40.440 the tax because Gilbo wants the tax to be five, six, seven, or eight times higher. He wants to ban

00:09:47.700 all fossil fuel jobs. Now, he is the most radical and fanatical of the Trudeau ministers, a guy who calls

00:09:57.980 himself a socialist, and he's with Mark Carney. That's not because Carney is a normal, old-fashioned

00:10:05.020 liberal. Far from it. Carney is just like Justin, just as radical. Don't be fooled. We don't need a

00:10:12.080 guy who's the same as Trudeau but can comb his hair. We need a total change. Fire these guys. Bring

00:10:17.980 home common sense conservatives who will axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget, stop the crime,

00:10:23.280 and put Canada first. Let's bring it home. Yeah, there's a lot to unpack out of that, but

00:10:30.860 balancing the budget. I mean, we haven't had a balanced budget since the Liberals came to power

00:10:36.680 in 2015. It will balance itself. Yeah. As Trudeau infamously said, right? Instead of balancing or

00:10:46.980 even closely resembling a balanced budget, we've instead seen former finance minister Christia

00:10:53.360 Freeland, who's now vying for leadership of the Liberal Party, actually break her own budgetary

00:10:58.900 predictions to the tune of billions of dollars. That's just grotesque government overspending.

00:11:05.040 It is absolutely insane. And now with these tariff, the tariff threat from the United States

00:11:11.320 and the now President Donald Trump, 25% incoming on February the 1st. And that's only two months

00:11:19.260 before our carbon tax is set to be increased once again on April the 1st. It's not an April Fool's

00:11:25.840 Day joke as many of us had hoped in the first couple years of the annual hike. But so Canadians are 0.99

00:11:33.840 really taking it from every which way and being taxed from every which way. And that I don't know

00:11:41.060 how much more any regular Canadian can handle it. So Pierre Polyev coming on and speaking that common

00:11:49.780 sense, vowing to axe the tax, bring home common sense, restore government accountability. I mean,

00:11:56.420 it sounds great. And if he follows through on it, I think there are, the tide has turned and is

00:12:01.660 continuing to turn that Canadians want to see more of that as they are hit hardest in their pocketbooks.

00:12:08.160 And there's really no safe space for Canadians, right? They talk, the Liberals always talk about,

00:12:12.820 oh, safe spaces. But when you're trying to escape the heavy hand of a tyrannical government who is

00:12:20.880 taxing you endlessly without fair and accurate or adequate representation, especially now when we don't

00:12:28.260 even have any parliament function. So we're not being represented at all in parliament.

00:12:34.300 What are we paying for?

00:12:36.440 Exactly. Are we getting, are we really getting more bang for our buck? And meanwhile, you have Premier

00:12:42.060 of Alberta, Danielle Smith, who seems to be the only rational leader trying to work democratically and work

00:12:50.360 alongside the U.S. government to rein in some of these threats and work for the best interest of

00:12:57.540 Albertans. And I'm just sad that she's not representing, you know, more of us, Canada more broadly on a larger

00:13:03.280 scale.

00:13:05.100 Yeah, I was born in Alberta. So I am very, like, sticking to that now. I'm so proud. I've been in

00:13:12.400 B.C. forever. But now I'm like, you know what? I'm Albertan. But yeah, Polly, I've spit a lot of

00:13:17.480 facts there. I mean, Carney is the same liberal wolf. Maybe some are not seeing past the sheep's

00:13:23.620 clothing. But another thing I noticed out of what he said there is, is what he's warning people like

00:13:29.000 there is no difference. This is the Liberals. You have, of all people, Gibralt supporting him. So

00:13:34.660 nothing has changed. And it reminds me a little bit of what we just saw ahead of the U.S. election,

00:13:40.560 where, I mean, we've been joking about Biden and how unfit he's been, falling all over the place,

00:13:46.760 air handshaking, nobody. We've been talking about that for years. Even Saudi Arabia was making fun

00:13:52.740 of it on their comedian channels years ago. What did they do before the election? All of a sudden,

00:13:57.940 they noticed that Biden doesn't seem to be doing well. And they sort of warm you up to Harris coming

00:14:04.100 in. And there was that fear for many. Is that going to be enough? Even though Harris has been the VP

00:14:09.480 this whole time, is that going to make people say the problem is solved? And I feel like we saw that

00:14:15.620 a little bit with Trudeau. I mean, it's that whole boiling the frog slowly. Before, if you said F.

00:14:22.980 Trudeau, you were a far right extremist conspiracy theorist. But then there was that period where

00:14:29.980 there's all the news coverage saying, you know, Trudeau's own people don't want him. And then people

00:14:33.840 start to go, OK, well, he's the problem. Then they get rid of him. And they have this shiny new coin,

00:14:39.120 Miss Kearney. And so I think that that video is important, whether people are digesting it or not,

00:14:45.200 who knows? Especially as Premier Smith puts it point blank. These issues fall 100%, she said,

00:14:54.920 at the feet and the hands of Justin Trudeau. They have harmed our relationship with our closest

00:15:01.440 neighbour and ally. And we'll hear this is, these are Smith's remarks and we'll come back and comment.

00:15:06.280 If there's a failure, the failure lands at the feet of Justin Trudeau, who damaged the relationship

00:15:12.120 with the incoming president by his antics in the first round of negotiations. The frustration

00:15:17.400 that I have reading Robert Lighthizer's book, where he goes through and talks about the ways in which

00:15:24.420 Canada messed around and came late to the table and tried to counter with Mexico and ghosted them, 0.97

00:15:32.240 it damaged the relationship. Let's be super clear about why we find ourselves in the situation that

00:15:38.180 we're in today. It lands 100% at the feet of Justin Trudeau, who even just a few weeks ago, gave a speech

00:15:46.480 where he thought it was an affront to women that Kamala Harris didn't win. We're in a trade negotiation

00:15:52.960 with a brand new administration. And we have a prime minister who keeps on poking his finger in

00:16:00.380 the eye of the current administration and has damaged that relationship. So if there's a failure,

00:16:05.940 it lands at his feet, which is why I'm counting down the days to when he's gone, and we can have

00:16:10.840 a reset. It's 47 days to go. And I hope he doesn't continue torching the relationship in the meantime.

00:16:16.020 All I can do is try to repair and build relationships that should have been repaired and built over the

00:16:25.300 last four years. That is what we do by having our office in Washington. We have good relationships

00:16:31.200 with people on both sides of the aisle, because that is what diplomacy is. You have to be able to

00:16:37.740 work with both Democrats and Republicans, and you have to refrain from expressing a preference

00:16:43.640 for who you would like in the White House. And so if there's a failure of leadership,

00:16:48.860 and if there's a damage to the relationship, it's 100% at the feet of Justin Trudeau.

00:16:54.680 Yeah, absolutely. And as they claim this Team Canada approach, it's like, but Canadians want you

00:17:01.460 to clean up the borders, and they want you to get fentanyl off of the streets. I mean, we've been

00:17:05.400 saying that for years. And now all of a sudden, we're faced with a threat from an outside elected

00:17:11.420 entity, President Donald Trump is now saying, clean up your borders and clean up your streets,

00:17:16.640 or else I'm imposing a 25% tariff. And now all of a sudden, it's like, oh, we better scramble and

00:17:22.840 take some action. But instead of actually taking that action, which Canadians have been asking for,

00:17:27.100 for the last few years, we're going to counter threaten and escalate those tensions

00:17:31.880 with counter tariffs. It's just absolutely bizarro upside down world. I think that the way that

00:17:40.220 Premier Smith is going, by having that dialogue and being open to conversations and negotiations,

00:17:47.220 being diplomatic, right, that that's what it comes down to the diplomacy of Danielle Smith,

00:17:52.760 I think is the right avenue to take in this time. And being hot headed and countering with these

00:18:01.220 threats like Doug Ford's doing, Justin Trudeau's doing, I know we'll get into it in a few minutes,

00:18:07.460 but even BC Premier EB is doing, I don't think that is the right way to rein this in. It's only going

00:18:14.060 to escalate it further. It is. And something else Smith said in another, I think it was actually the

00:18:19.380 same, you know, video there, but another clip, she says that she fears that this is going to be used

00:18:25.640 as sort of an election, you know, chip for them to use this for votes and politicize the whole thing

00:18:33.340 even more than it already is. And I think that's already what's happening. And I think that's what's

00:18:37.860 happening with our premiers. They're buddying up in some ways with a little liberal party in their

00:18:42.940 stance, rather than doing what's best for their citizens. Again, I'll throw to David EB, which we're

00:18:48.300 going to talk about in a minute there. So I'm very proud of Danielle Smith. I'm thankful we have

00:18:53.560 someone like that on the international stage. She was at the inauguration. I heard Trudeau didn't

00:18:59.500 get an invitation, obviously. But it's nice to have her there. And I wish it would rub off more

00:19:05.640 on the rest of our premiers. Again, the common sense, like, I know that's the conservative sort

00:19:11.320 of slogan, but that's all it really is, is just common sense. Yeah, you don't have to be some sort

00:19:17.040 of trained political science major to see that this might not end in anyone's favor. If you keep

00:19:24.460 escalating these kinds of tensions. But let's go to a quick ad break. And then we'll come back to chat

00:19:28.740 a little bit more about David EB's comments. Canadians know the national anthem. They stand

00:19:36.040 in silence to remember those who died for this country. But not every Canadian knows their rights

00:19:41.740 and freedoms. The Freedom Passport will change that. It looks and feels like a Canadian passport,

00:19:48.580 but contains the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in a portable, easy to read format.

00:19:54.980 The Freedom Passport. Order one for yourself and for all the freedom lovers that you love

00:20:02.740 I'm in Brazil. So I'm using a VPN to get on the internet. What's a VPN? It stands for a virtual

00:20:10.840 private network and you get around these government firewalls. Suddenly the president of Brazil banned

00:20:16.660 his whole country from going on Twitter. It was a political censorship news. I've downloaded the VPN

00:20:22.800 from a company called PIA VPN. We've teamed up with them at Rebel and it's a great deal. I got on the

00:20:29.320 internet really quickly, safely, and even a bit of a technophobe. I managed to figure it out with two

00:20:34.580 clicks. And here's the great news. If you go to PIA VPN.com slash rebel news, not only do you get a

00:20:43.440 big discount, but they pay us a bit of a commission too. Everyone's a winner. Your freedom, your VPN,

00:20:49.700 and a little bit of cash coming to support Rebel News. I'm using it myself to get around the centers

00:20:55.680 in Brazil. You can use it too. That's PIA VPN.com slash rebel news.

00:22:50.780 have been recently?

00:22:52.280 Sure. And I know this is out of order, but I think we should start with the video of what

00:22:56.820 he says and then, you know, read the articles about what that looks like for him. So can we

00:23:01.800 just go to the clip and then we'll comment?

00:23:03.320 It's moments like these where you have a choice. You can surrender and give up, or you can stand up.

00:23:14.920 And for British Columbia, we're going to stand up. We're going to respond to tariffs. And keep in mind,

00:23:22.900 this is not a fight that we wanted. It's not a fight that we picked. And in fact, we think this

00:23:27.780 is going to hurt Americans as badly as it does Canadians. But we're going to stand up. We're going

00:23:32.900 to support federal efforts to respond with targeted tariffs to make sure that the Americans understand

00:23:38.360 that we will not surrender.

00:23:43.760 Okay. First of all, no, it's not going to hurt the Americans as bad if it hurts the Canadians. But

00:23:48.820 what is he talking about surrendering? You touched on it a little bit when you talked about our

00:23:53.860 fentanyl issue. But let's talk about what do they call fentanyl capital of the world. We've been

00:23:59.080 nicknamed out here in Vancouver as far as cities go. That's what he doesn't want to surrender. That's

00:24:04.680 what he doesn't want to give up on these borders. We've had in 2023, we had in BC alone, 2,500 fatal

00:24:12.960 overdoses. Out of all the overdoses in Canada, of course, British Columbia has the most. We have

00:24:18.620 more than Quebec and Ontario, even though they have more people. We had a third of all of the

00:24:24.220 overdoses. He should have already, like the fight was already here when it comes to what's happening

00:24:30.760 with the border, what's happening to British Columbians. And we all know it's not just the

00:24:35.100 people who are struggling with these addiction issues. It's everybody that's connected with them.

00:24:41.260 And it's also the healthcare system. Even after COVID, when they were blocking off all of the rooms

00:24:46.720 for ICU and no one was coming in, who was actually putting pressure on the system? It's the people

00:24:51.780 overdosing in British Columbia. That's what was happening. It skyrocketed 58% here.

00:24:56.600 So this is what he says we have to take a stand in keeping. It's sick, it's disgusting, 0.96

00:25:04.840 it's twisted. And he should be embarrassed that another world leader is seeing what's happening 0.98

00:25:11.780 here and having to put this pressure or this threat, you know, America first. But also we're

00:25:17.840 the neighbors. We're right next door in BC to the US.

00:25:21.540 Yeah, exactly. And that's what I was what I was getting at before when I was stating that instead

00:25:27.820 of just actually putting Canadians wants and needs first, and tending to these issues that we have

00:25:35.460 been highlighting for the last few years, and calling on the government to take action to counter

00:25:42.140 them. No, now all of a sudden, it's because of Trump that it's been brought into, you know,

00:25:47.200 the mainstream media's news cycle, and onto the radar of the elected officials. And yet, instead

00:25:55.120 of actually addressing those issues, and just, hey, let's actually clean up our borders, let's get 0.93

00:25:59.660 the fentanyl off of our streets. No, we're going to counter with threats and tariffs right back at you.

00:26:06.420 It is textbook, bizarro, upside down world that we're living in. And again, with our parliament

00:26:12.320 being completely prorogued and at a standstill, that's if the Supreme Court will decide February

00:26:19.240 13th and 14th, there's been a motion to immediately reverse the prorogation of parliament by a lawyer and

00:26:28.080 another individual. I would have to go back into the case file, but a judge has decided to expedite

00:26:37.540 this hearing to the filing of this motion to end the prorogation of parliament. And so we may see

00:26:44.620 parliament come back sooner than, I think it was March 25th is when Trudeau originally prorogued it

00:26:50.840 until, which he gives new leadership until March the 9th to, you know, campaign and decide for the

00:26:58.820 Liberal Party. So that timing will be very interesting to see if we'll actually head into an election right

00:27:04.920 there after that judge makes his or her ruling and see what happens with the prorogation. Because

00:27:11.780 I think the timing couldn't be worse for us in Canada with these, with these tariffs. It's

00:27:19.620 absolutely absurd that we don't have a functioning parliament at this time. And David Evey's not helping.

00:27:25.880 Oh, sorry. Yeah, no, the threat is February 1st. What is that like eight or nine days or something

00:27:30.180 like that's ridiculous? So this is, uh, premier David Evey's vision of, of how we take a stand

00:27:36.840 in letting the fentanyl freely flow. Um, so one thing that he's, uh, suggesting to, uh, Canadians

00:27:46.540 as a whole, not just British Columbians is to carefully think about spending money. Essentially,

00:27:51.040 he wants us to boycott together, um, the U S and things like that. He says, British Columbians

00:27:57.480 should rethink trips to the United States. So don't take vacations there and purchase at a, and

00:28:03.220 purchasing of American products as a province establishes a task force to respond to the U S

00:28:09.800 president, Donald Trump's threatened tariffs. And if you scroll down, there's a quote from him.

00:28:15.420 Oh, I got a pop up here. Let's just get rid of that. Um, so he says, it feels very strange to say,

00:28:22.660 but I really do think that for Canadians right now, when you're planning your March break vacations,

00:28:27.840 when you're planning your summer vacations, if the tariff threat is realized, the deliberate

00:28:33.640 economic attack on families in our province, in our country, by the president of the United States,

00:28:40.360 that we really should think carefully about spending our money in that country. So yeah,

00:28:47.440 he goes on to basically encourage this boycott of happening again, instead of just trying to work

00:28:53.200 with actually making British Columbia and Canada, a better place as a whole. I hope for British

00:29:00.080 Columbians at home, when you're at the grocery store and you have a chance to buy a product right now, 0.96

00:29:06.180 you're looking carefully at the labels to support Canadian and support Canada at this critical time.

00:29:11.420 Now here's the thing. That's the message we should always be saying. Like, why, why don't we say that

00:29:17.380 to people? Why don't we support Canadian businesses as a whole anyways? But to say it now in defense of

00:29:24.520 this, when, uh, the side issue is these terrorists are actually coming, we actually need to work, uh, 0.80

00:29:30.000 to do what we should have done before is just ludicrous. Yeah. And I mean, I think that any Canadian 1.00

00:29:35.200 who is checking labels and looking to see where their products are made, we'll find that most of them

00:29:39.980 come from China. And so it's very difficult to buy Canadian made products when the vast majority of

00:29:47.040 our manufacturing is outsourced to China, which is another thing that Trump signed an executive order

00:29:51.780 to rein in. He's wants to bring back manufacturing to the United States so that they no longer depend

00:29:57.920 so heavily on foreign exports. And, uh, I think that that will lend into this tariff and trade war

00:30:06.880 thing because actually it's not going to hit the U S as hard as we think it will, because they're

00:30:12.080 trying to bring their manufacturing back home to the United States. And so naturally that means that

00:30:19.480 they will no longer rely so heavily on those external exports and other countries for their goods and

00:30:26.200 services. And I mean, I don't know about you, but our dollar is absolutely abysmal compared to the

00:30:32.420 United States dollar. I think last I checked, it was trading at like 70, 77 or 78 cents per dollar.

00:30:38.300 And so that prevents a lot of Canadians from spending their money in the United States as it

00:30:43.960 is not to mention that we have people who are struggling to pay their bills and get by and

00:30:49.800 heat their homes and feed their families. And there's record numbers visiting food banks and

00:30:53.940 the homelessness crisis is out of control. So, uh, I don't know what kind of la la land fantasy la la

00:31:01.880 land, uh, people like David EB live in where they think that the vast majority of people can even

00:31:07.300 afford to go to anywhere for a March break vacation or head somewhere else to spend their money when they

00:31:14.740 don't get, uh, you know, the same a dollar amount for their dollars. Um, so this just seems kind of

00:31:22.840 like a silly thing to even rely on because it's not factoring in all of those other variables that

00:31:30.700 lend to the fact that Canadians just simply can't afford this. And it's not going to impact the United

00:31:36.000 States in the way that I think they think it will. No. Uh, and I want to invite everybody who's

00:31:41.320 listening again, you can go to rumble, do a rumble rant and weigh into things. It helps us be able

00:31:47.260 to tell the news, but it also makes you part of the show. And I want to ask you guys, uh, what do

00:31:52.260 you think? Is this a bluff from Trump? Some people are still wondering, um, he's just saying this to

00:31:56.880 get as much, uh, as he can in line, and then maybe he'll give us more time or maybe he'll back that

00:32:01.920 or whatever. Uh, let me know what you think about that. The other thing just briefly to mention

00:32:06.420 that, uh, premier Evie is saying is that he possibly, um, wants to stop, uh, buying us alcohol

00:32:15.660 in response to the tariffs as well. And, uh, that would be in the government liquor stores,

00:32:20.640 which means it's still available in the, the other options, which is interesting. I mean,

00:32:25.980 when he says, you know, we're going to fight back and it's going to hurt the Americans just as bad.

00:32:29.940 It's like, yeah, no, this isn't going to hurt them this bad. But the other thing that doesn't make

00:32:34.080 sense is you've already paid for the alcohol. Like you already bought it. So what do you mean

00:32:40.360 you're going to stop the sale of it? What happens with that money? Where is it going? Is that going

00:32:44.680 to be part of the new safer supplier? Are we going to just start handing it out for free? I don't know.

00:32:49.400 So it's funny because that was Ontario, uh, premier Doug Ford took the exact same stance saying they

00:32:55.180 were going to pull us, uh, was it, I think it was bourbon specifically off the shelves. And, um,

00:33:02.700 or maybe I'm confusing that with, with when they, we threatened the same to Russia in 2022. But

00:33:07.680 anyway, that seems to be, uh, where Doug Ford is trying to go also with his counter threats,

00:33:13.000 wearing his, his Canada is not for sale trucker hat, which is, makes him look, I think even more 0.88

00:33:20.060 silly, um, than he does as a progressive conservative. But I think we have another clip 0.93

00:33:26.960 here of John Rustad, the, uh, leader of the opposition in BC who has asked EB to rein in his

00:33:35.740 comments.

00:33:38.940 Hi, John Rustad here with the Conservative Party of British Columbia and on a beautiful sunny day

00:33:43.940 here in Vancouver, tomorrow, Monday is the day that president Trump takes over. There is the threats

00:33:51.760 of the tariffs that are going to be happening between United States and Canada, in particular,

00:33:56.400 British Columbia. We have a government both federally and now provincially with David Evie

00:34:01.680 that are threatening to expand this trade war. The results of that would be absolutely devastating.

00:34:08.800 We need to be doing everything we can to try to work with the Americans to try to make sure we

00:34:13.520 protect our borders, stop the flow of fentanyl into this province, deal with our port issues,

00:34:18.560 not creating a trade war. The damage that will be done. Tens of thousands of jobs could be lost.

00:34:25.200 The amount of revenue that would be lost as a province, but most importantly, the damages would

00:34:30.240 do to our resource sectors, to all of the sectors that are doing trade with the United States is just

00:34:35.440 immeasurable. I was just at the natural resource farm in Prince George, the truck loggers here in

00:34:40.160 Vancouver. I'm now attending the mining conference here in Vancouver this week. And I can tell you all of

00:34:45.680 them, all of those sectors are extremely worried about what is to come. David Evie is putting at

00:34:52.320 risk the people in this province by threatening a trade war instead of actually figuring out how

00:34:57.920 you work with the Americans. Ontario, Saskatchewan, and even I think Alberta are looking at how they

00:35:04.320 work with the Americans, not ramping up the trade rhetoric. I fear that David Evie is doing this so that

00:35:09.680 he can blame the Americans for the troubles that we have. He can blame the Americans for his debt

00:35:15.920 and irresponsible spending. He can blame the Americans for the downturn that is coming in

00:35:20.560 our resource sectors. This is wrong. He is throwing people under the bus simply for politics. Do what's

00:35:27.360 right. Let's make sure that we protect our borders. Make sure that we stop this flow of fentanyl that's

00:35:32.480 killing people in this province. And actually get down to work with having a relationship with our largest

00:35:37.840 trading partner with our greatest ally and figure out how can we grow our economy and help people in

00:35:43.840 this province as opposed to just playing politics. This is what we need to change. This is what we

00:35:48.800 need to do. And this is what the Conservative Party stands for. There you have some more reasonable comments

00:35:55.440 by the Conservative Party in British Columbia that surely will be spun somehow or have been already spun

00:36:02.800 somehow in the mainstream media to be radical, alt-right or far-right for simply trying to be

00:36:09.360 diplomatic and expressing some diplomacy about how is best to proceed. It's crazy.

00:36:15.120 Not just the media, of course, the NDP too. I mean, we do have a socialist government. I just quickly

00:36:20.320 shared a tweet from Ravi Callan, an NDP MLA. And so his response to Rustad's video is,

00:36:28.880 is John Rustad and his Conservatives need to take off their Make America Great Again hats and put on

00:36:35.440 Team Canada jerseys like the rest of us Canadians. I think most Canadians, voting Canadians, do not want

00:36:45.360 to go in any type of war with the US. I don't think this is a winning strategy for them as they think it is.

00:36:53.200 No, not especially given that our military is exceptionally weak at this time. We have not

00:37:00.880 met our NATO target in years, nearly a decade, if memory serves. And we have, you know, focused on

00:37:11.120 diversity, equity and inclusion hires rather than hiring people based on merit. Our equipment is old,

00:37:16.880 it's rusty, it's broken down. We've sent most of it over to the Ukraine. So we're really

00:37:23.040 not prepared to have escalating tensions with a country that continues to meet its NATO targets,

00:37:30.160 and has just announced that they are bringing back all of their military and service members

00:37:34.880 that were fired over the vaccine mandates, which I think was, you know, a substantial percentage of

00:37:40.960 the force. And so, yeah, I agree that diplomacy and having and being able to negotiate instead of

00:37:47.600 escalate and counter threaten is the way to go here. But we're going to get more into

00:37:54.720 some Trump talk after we take a quick ad break.

00:38:02.000 What if governments are trying to reinvent the wheel when the greatest teacher of all times

00:39:18.240 Now, I just want to touch on this more bizarro world upside down. You have radical trans activist 0.99

00:39:25.280 Faye Johnstone has went to the federal government and basically begged them to give guidance on U.S. 0.98

00:39:34.080 travel ahead of Trump outright coming out and stating and putting an executive order forward

00:39:40.480 that the government formally recognizes that there are two genders, male and female. And so by upholding

00:39:49.600 biological reality, now these trans extremists are in complete meltdown. And Faye Johnstone, 1.00

00:39:55.280 of course, is leading that charge. So she or he, however, which way the wind blows depends on how

00:40:02.720 they identify, but wants Canada to update its travel safety guidelines to the United States following

00:40:10.880 President Donald Trump's executive order limiting gender expression to male and female. I mean,

00:40:17.600 this is the way our mainstream media spins and twists things. So by the government acknowledging

00:40:24.240 that there's only two genders, male and female, our mainstream media in Canada has spun that to be

00:40:29.280 that he has a limited, limited gender expression to male and female. Um, I think that's the whole issue

00:40:37.840 with the radical LGB or no, it's like, it's, it's two S L G B T Q I A A plus plus five, whatever it is now.

00:40:50.080 I know I've had to memorize it for some reports. Yeah, I've had to memorize it. And so now I refuse

00:40:56.480 to, I just, I refuse to, I'm like, I've got more important things to research than all of that.

00:41:02.320 I thought I, I, it really intrigued me when there was a numbers included in the alphabet soup. So

00:41:10.640 that's when I started to pay a little bit closer attention to see what exactly are they adding in

00:41:14.720 here and what exactly does this mean? Um, so anyway, uh, I, I think that's the issue with the alphabet

00:41:21.120 soup crowd is that we don't want to just box people into these weird grasp born out of thin air

00:41:29.600 labels and we should stick to biological reality of male and female and stop promoting the fact

00:41:34.400 that children and babies can be born in the wrong body, starting them off on a lifetime of identity

00:41:40.560 crisis. And, um, so for simply upholding that biological reality, our mainstream media has spun

00:41:47.360 that into being that now Trump has limited people's gender expression. Um, I don't know about you,

00:41:53.360 but I think that if you're a tomboy, you're still very much free to express yourself however you would

00:41:58.800 like to in the United States or in Canada. Um, and then we have, of course, leader of the opposition,

00:42:05.520 Pierre Polyev, he was, uh, asked by a news anchor similarly about this and whether or not the

00:42:13.120 Canadian government shall he be elected in whenever our next election is hopefully sooner rather than

00:42:18.720 later, if he would follow suit. It's a pretty funny clip. So maybe we'll just show that one here

00:42:24.320 before we get into things. First day on the job, president Trump signed an executive order. Uh,

00:42:30.320 you know, the U S government only recognizing two genders, male, female, they're unchangeable, 1.00

00:42:34.880 you know, if elected as prime minister, is that something that you're going to kind of walk in

00:42:39.120 line with or what are your feelings on that executive order? Well, I don't know. You have any other

00:42:44.560 genders that you'd like to name me personally? I'm just asking more. So if you're in line with

00:42:54.240 what he is saying, do you agree with what he's saying? Is that something that you would be

00:42:57.920 lockstep with if elected as prime minister? Well, I, I'm not aware of any other genders than 0.99

00:43:04.080 men and women. I mean, if you have any other that you want me to consider, you can, you're welcome to

00:43:08.720 tell me right now. Well, there's, well, there's personally, I am a man. I'm a, there's people

00:43:14.560 who say cis man. There are people there who, you know, they say they're gender neutral. You are a

00:43:19.600 man. Yes. There are people out there who say they're gender neutral. Yeah. They say they're

00:43:22.960 gender neutral. Uh, they're, you know, they're, they're a trans person. Is that something that

00:43:29.840 you would recognize here? Whereas in the States, at least with their U S government,

00:43:34.640 the way they're seeing it, there's only two. I'm only aware of two, but I mean,

00:43:40.640 I have, if you have, if you come up with another list, then, uh, you're welcome to do that. But I,

00:43:45.520 I'm aware of two. And, um, as far as I'm concerned, we should have a government that just minds its own

00:43:51.120 damn business and leaves people alone here, here, here, here, here. Good. I'm actually a little

00:43:58.080 surprised that he answered that way. I must say, uh, I thought that was good. I'm really proud of that.

00:44:04.400 Yeah. And it's always funny to see the journalists or the news anchors caught off guard. Right. He's

00:44:09.840 like, if, do you have any other genders that you'd like to alert me to? And, um, you know,

00:44:15.360 I can think of a few just because of the nature of some of the reporting that we do here. I can think

00:44:19.360 of a few off the top of my head, but this journalist, he, he couldn't come up with any of them. Um,

00:44:24.560 and there's like, I think last I checked, there's over 60. Oh my gosh. He's asking that question.

00:44:32.960 He has no conviction behind it whatsoever. And oh my gosh, when he said he's a sis. Oh my gosh.

00:44:39.280 You imagine if you're, I mean, I'm married, but you imagine looking at a dating profile and you come

00:44:43.700 across a guy who says he's a sis male. Can you imagine? It's a great way to just rule out, uh, 0.98

00:44:50.540 any sort of, um, dating potential in the, in the dating pool. I, I do empathize for anybody who

00:44:57.660 needs to date in this day and age between like the, the people who just cow toe to the pharma

00:45:03.740 narrative to the people who are confused about whether they're male or female or something,

00:45:08.700 I don't know, in between or outside of that. I do not, um, wish that dating sphere on anyone.

00:45:16.620 And I'm so thankful to have met someone before these crazy times. Um, but anyway, I, it was funny,

00:45:24.380 um, to throw back to also, uh, Aaron O'Toole, I think it was in 2021 when he, at that time was,

00:45:31.980 I think he was vying for leadership of the conservative party or he had just lost. Um,

00:45:38.120 he was just voted out by party members for his ridiculous stance on coat to have the, 0.78

00:45:44.300 the handling of COVID. And he responded to, I don't know, he was having some sort of like five

00:45:51.040 minute Q and a session with some sort of trans activist named Taylor, um, who asked him for

00:45:57.960 his pronouns. I think we have just a 22nd clip of this from 2021. Look at this Taylor, your five

00:46:06.220 minutes with Mr. O'Toole start now. Oh, awesome. Uh, well, my name's Taylor. I usually hear, I don't

00:46:13.240 want to assume from anyone else first. You use he, him, right? Uh, or they Taylor, whatever,

00:46:18.760 whatever you would, would, would like. Okay. Fantastic. I want to make sure that you're

00:46:24.140 addressed properly. Thank you so much for this opportunity to, to spend time with you.

00:46:28.380 Taylor, you're fine. 0.99

00:46:29.360 What a loser. He so has never been called it. I've never seen that clip. 0.99

00:46:35.980 Aaron O'Toole.

00:46:36.900 Oh my goodness. Aaron O'Toole. Yes. Or just the O'Toole, um, emphasis on the tool part,

00:46:44.600 but you know, just even for the awkward pause there and for Taylor to just say, oh, well,

00:46:51.240 I want to make sure that I address you properly or something. And it's like, if we're that concerned

00:46:56.700 with how we are addressing people and we're not speaking to the larger issues that are happening

00:47:01.760 in our world and in society, um, this is, you know, it's, it's creating this, this false victimhood

00:47:08.820 where it's like, if you don't address me and conform to my version of reality, then I'm a victim

00:47:15.080 and you're a hateful bigot. And I mean, I can see kind of both sides of the coin where O'Toole was like,

00:47:22.300 or they, um, however you want to refer to me, like, I don't, he's kind of saying in my opinion,

00:47:27.860 like, I don't really care. Um, or on the other hand, he's also saying like, oh, I could also be

00:47:34.280 a they, them. Um, so maybe he isn't like considering himself a cis male. I would, I think that's a

00:47:41.500 straight man is a cis male because you can be male, but not straight. Like I, I'm, I don't know.

00:47:48.540 Cause they try to say we all choose our gender. So that's where the cis comes in. It means you

00:47:53.400 chose the sex that you were assigned at birth as the correct language, but you're right. I mean, 0.99

00:48:00.320 it is this victimhood mentality. Um, you know, back to Faye Johnson, I mean, saying that we need

00:48:06.780 this travel advisory. What I hate the most about it. Well, back to that for just a second, how many

00:48:11.420 other countries recognize there's only two genders? So why are we only focusing on the U S but what I

00:48:16.200 hate about this victim mentality and this whole, oh, you want kids unalived if you don't want them

00:48:21.600 mutilated or sterilized is what they are doing to the kids. These kids actually, it trickles down

00:48:27.660 through our schools, this propaganda that actually makes these confused kids. And if you look at who

00:48:33.220 the gender confused kids are, they're the foster kids. They're the indigenous kids. They're the

00:48:37.720 autistic kids. They're the kids that are close to the system. They're the kids that don't fit in

00:48:41.900 sometimes as well. And so you have the world or the media or, um, the teachers, they're SOGI leaders

00:48:49.280 at the schools, convincing them the world hates them and it's unsafe to go to Disneyland now,

00:48:54.020 which it is for other reasons I would say, but, um, but yeah, but speaking of bizarro.

00:49:00.380 Oh yeah. And they're planting, they're, they're putting a wedge between the child and their family,

00:49:06.280 which is their first point of contact. If they're struggling medically or with anything health

00:49:11.500 related or identity wise, their family is going to be that stepping stone to help get them the help

00:49:17.780 that they actually need, not some random school administrator or guidance counselor that isn't

00:49:25.460 equipped to deal with the complexities of an identity crisis. And, you know, Dre, the most

00:49:30.340 heartbreaking thing for me is to hear the, um, the, uh, over representation of foster children who succumb

00:49:39.580 to this radicalization of their gender identity being something different than what they were, you know,

00:49:45.280 born in the wrong body kind of talk because those kids don't have a strong family unit. They don't

00:49:51.660 even have in some instances or many instances, a family unit to fall back on. And so inherently

00:49:57.980 they're struggling with their identity because they don't have anything at home to identify with

00:50:03.500 and to prey on and capitalize on these innocent children who are already struggling with who they

00:50:10.320 are, where they come from and where they're going because they don't have a solid grounded base

00:50:16.680 point to, you know, springboard to jump off of is so devastatingly sad. And, you know, you've reported

00:50:23.200 extensively on this. They come to terms later on in life and they regret all of these decisions and are

00:50:29.240 dealing with the health fallout from making some of these choices without informed consent.

00:50:34.300 And one more quick thing to add about the foster care. I, my previous world, I was in the mental

00:50:40.560 health industry and worked very closely in that field. And, uh, even if the child has a loving foster

00:50:47.920 family that they've been with for years, that foster family is not allowed to say anything. If they say

00:50:56.000 anything against the narrative, if a kid even questions being gender confused and they don't sign them up

00:51:02.700 for all the things that they're told they have to do, that's enough to get fired and lose your job.

00:51:07.420 So, um, they don't have any advice except for what the state promotes to them. Um, but so terrible.

00:51:15.820 Yeah. Speaking of terrible, we've got to get, I've just been waiting the whole time to talk about this,

00:51:20.480 uh, next thing. Can we, are we going to the Bishop? The, uh, yeah, let's go through a couple.

00:51:27.680 Oh, did we miss stuff? Go, you go ahead, Tamara. I took over there. 1.00

00:51:30.580 I have some, uh, rumble rants that I want to get to because you asked, uh, people to chime in and

00:51:35.820 they did. And so I just want to get to them in a timely way. So wrong way 54 gives $5. Thank you

00:51:41.160 so much. Hello ladies. Thank you again for all you at rebel have done for us. Is it possible to

00:51:47.420 have one of your amazing lawyers to help us at retirement homes to get rid of the dividers and 1.00

00:51:53.000 COVID-19 signs? That's really interesting. Um, there's a lot of crazy things happening still in

00:51:59.580 long-term care and nursing homes, retirement homes to do not only with COVID-19, but the flu. And a

00:52:05.140 lot of these measures actually, uh, predate the COVID hysteria. So nursing homes, retirement homes,

00:52:12.380 long-term care homes, they would go into lockdown anytime there was a flu outbreak. And what I've

00:52:17.240 come to learn is that that didn't even necessarily need to be confirmed. And other people, especially

00:52:23.080 throughout COVID, if there was one person sick with COVID like symptoms, they just assumed

00:52:27.880 that everybody else also had COVID without testing them or monitoring for other symptoms,

00:52:33.360 et cetera. Um, but I didn't, I don't know how much that still exists to this day. And so this

00:52:40.440 is a little bit news to me that this is still going on, uh, depending on where you're located

00:52:47.280 or the province territory, uh, where this is happening in Canada, send us a tip at tips

00:52:53.200 at rebel news.com. There are often tips. I mean, we get thousands a day, so I just, we

00:52:58.420 simply can't get to every single one of them, but let us know, or maybe, um, in the comments,

00:53:03.220 let us know where this is happening. If you have the name of a home, sometimes people don't

00:53:08.320 want to say the name of the home publicly because they fear that their loved one will face, um,

00:53:13.700 repercussions for them speaking out. So if you can figure out a way to let us know where this

00:53:18.960 is happening, then we can send somebody who's more in that locale to report on that.

00:53:25.160 And if somebody needs legal help, go to our friends at the democracy fund. Yes. Uh, dot

00:53:30.860 com. So just search the democracy fund.ca and you'll find them. Um, yeah, that's not to be

00:53:35.800 confused with. I think there's a democracy fund in the United States. So make sure that you're

00:53:39.480 avoid the Canadian one. Yes. Yeah. Ryerson Gary gives $5 90 some years ago, the Smoot Howley

00:53:47.320 Tariff Act. I hope I said that right. Howley, um, and retaliatory tariffs along with Roosevelt's

00:53:54.320 new deal turned a mild recession into the great depression that lasted 10 years. Yeah. Beware

00:54:01.220 folks. I mean, let's look at history, right? History repeats itself. And so here we are.

00:54:06.380 And that is a nice reminder of where these sort of escalating measures can potentially take us. I

00:54:12.600 mean, there are some economists who already say that we're in a recession. It's just being hidden by

00:54:17.160 the money printing that's going on by the government. And so I, I tend to believe that that's where we

00:54:23.760 already are with the economy. And, um, who knows how else that will be impacted by these tariffs if

00:54:32.520 they come into force on February the 1st. Uh, we have one more from Jedha Bursi, $5 again. Thank you.

00:54:40.660 God only created them male and female, nothing else. Anything else is telling God that he is wrong.

00:54:49.000 Hmm. Yeah. Genesis and Matthew.

00:54:51.960 We were made in his image. Um, okay. So before we get into our last topics and what Drea would like

00:56:03.640 headlines. Yes. So Alexa in, and I think we have a clip here to show, as I mentioned at the beginning

00:56:11.000 of the stream was covering Trudeau's latest retreat at the swanky Fairmont in Quebec, Montebello, I

00:56:19.080 believe it was. And we have a clip here. I think I'm not sure if it's the full clip or we have just

00:56:24.820 a few minute one. If it's the full clip, maybe we can just narrow it down to the moment that Alexa

00:56:30.620 tries to sneak in there to ask Justin Trudeau an accountability question. Do we have that pulled

00:56:37.020 left yet? So now let's see the full report. Look at that. They're opening the doors.

00:56:47.020 There's no one there. Yeah. It's so empty.

00:57:00.640 Mr. Trudeau, why won't you call for an election? Mr. Trudeau, why would you call for an election?

00:57:19.980 Mr. Trudeau, why, why you don't call for an election? Why Canadian won an election?

00:57:28.080 Mr. Trudeau, why don't you call for an election? Do not touch me.

00:57:33.080 Mr. Guillon, how's it going? How's it going? Excuse me.

00:57:36.080 Mr. Trudeau, why don't you continue to refuse to come to your events?

00:57:40.080 The Canadians want to have the accountability.

00:57:43.080 Mr. Trudeau, thank you very much.

00:57:45.080 Mr. Trudeau, why don't you believe that the media are nice and favorable to your image?

00:57:50.080 Mr. Trudeau, why don't you record all the time? I wouldn't say that.

00:57:53.080 Mr. Trudeau, I'll say I'll say that.

00:57:58.080 Hello.

00:58:00.080 Sorry.

00:58:33.200 while enjoying all of the amazing activities both aboard and in port secure your spot today

00:58:39.140 at rebelnewscruise.com you see people it really irks me when people think that they can put their

00:58:47.000 hands on you yeah especially as females you know she's there with guillaume so there's two of them 1.00

00:58:53.920 but otherwise alexa's alone there and with these people she's not posing a threat she's not being

00:59:00.540 violent she's not enticing any of those things and for them to think that it is okay to touch her

00:59:06.620 really deeply concerns me there was an incident uh i guess back in december where you know i not not

00:59:13.300 the same but but same similar enough where we were trying to tour a low barrier shelter in coburg

00:59:20.060 uh just outside where i live and it was supposed to be open to the media the event they said stated

00:59:26.460 online everything publicly posted was that it was open to media but then they quietly opened

00:59:31.420 early for media and they didn't actually publicly state that anywhere um and so when we got there they

00:59:39.760 said sorry you're not allowed and i started asking some questions and and why is that and what

00:59:44.080 where was this publicly posted and where could i find that information and um there was two

00:59:49.940 individuals that started to kind of like escort me out and i had already had my back turned and i was

00:59:54.240 just you know slowly making my way out while i was asking some questions because otherwise you miss

00:59:58.960 in many instances an opportunity to get those questions across and i had to say i think at least three

01:00:05.760 times don't touch me like do not put your hands on me i am leaving and i will leave yeah but you don't

01:00:13.100 have the right to to place your hands on me and having to remind people that is a really weird place to

01:00:21.040 be and then you have people like um you know the radical left who always claims to be again this

01:00:28.380 victimhood mentality of oh we're being targeted online for some mean tweets and then you have our

01:00:34.040 journalists like alexa who's grabbed you can see that he they are grabbing her arm and pulling her

01:00:41.060 down the stairs and that isn't condemned by anyone anywhere widely on a more broad platform this is

01:00:50.660 really concerning behavior and she was just asking questions she was asking questions that canadian

01:00:56.220 want to know the answers to and you know i got picked up as well when i tried asking trudeau

01:01:02.260 question canadians wanted the answer to and they tossed me aside like pick me up off my feet and

01:01:06.920 toss me aside like a rag doll it is it is really concerning when you're a female and uh it just gets

01:01:12.500 ignored like where's the the groups that stand up for um you know free press they're just silent over

01:01:18.480 everything and they keep interviewing rachel gilmore who isn't even a journalist anymore

01:01:22.860 who's been who's been fired i think twice at least now from her position so i mean if you want to call

01:01:30.260 yourself a credible journalist while you keep getting fired so maybe you're not um but i will

01:01:36.420 have a more annoying right and maybe people actually don't agree with your radical stances

01:01:41.920 and they just can't outwardly say that to you so they just fire you instead um well and she also got

01:01:49.500 global news sued by the veteran james top for uh calling him i think a white supremacist and other

01:01:56.520 things and so he's doing global all the yeah all the buzzwords if you searched white supremacist

01:02:03.000 his name was popping up because they made it yeah look like that when he searched so bad but anyway

01:02:09.020 we'll have a more fulsome report out from alexa she got uh the that kind of the question to trudeau 1.00

01:02:15.400 and how she was treated out and then she was also detained and fined false falsely detained and falsely

01:02:22.480 fined um for an alleged seat belt infraction so we'll have that report out today uh we sought some

01:02:30.440 legal advice for alexa on that she they vowed to rebel news's crowdfunding her defense um i think

01:02:37.540 it's stand with alexa.com is the crowdfunding website where you can find that information and

01:02:42.240 you can stay tuned as those reports are released because we've retained a lawyer and we'll be fighting

01:02:48.380 those fines for her which also included three demerit points and she was a passenger she wasn't

01:02:53.760 even driving so the police you know after they left kind of that's crazy targeted them i didn't realize

01:03:00.180 she wasn't driving yeah they targeted them and uh alexa was fined nearly a thousand dollars 0.97

01:03:07.040 and three demerit points for not wearing her seat belt allegedly but she says she was recording the

01:03:14.460 whole time and i don't want to give out you know too many of the details but yeah she was recording

01:03:18.700 the whole time and you can actually hear her seat belt clicking when they're recording because alexa

01:03:24.860 is she's so smart in that way she all she's always rolling and actually speaking of gilmore it's funny

01:03:30.440 because i think there was a thing a couple months ago where gilmore um ran into alexa on the street

01:03:35.780 and she's like are you filming me and it's like you don't understand the concept of b-roll where

01:03:42.820 you're always filming you never know who you're going to come across and you're also just sometimes

01:03:47.400 getting like general biz visuals of the place that you are and where you're covering so that the viewer

01:03:53.580 can have a more fulsome visual of what it looks like where you are and what's going on and all these

01:03:59.500 things and gilmore was like me on the streets you're targeting me and it was just so funny because

01:04:07.600 she you know claims to be like this holier-than-thou journalist and i'm here because i'm a journalist and

01:04:12.480 meanwhile she doesn't understand the concept of gathering visuals and b-roll for reports so um

01:04:18.660 and the other angle that clearly showed she speaks to alexa and alexa's like what like alexa actually 0.97

01:04:26.660 turns to her after she thinks she's recording it was really weird yeah the whole interaction was very

01:04:32.200 bizarre and alexa didn't even know who she was at first and then she was like oh wait i think i know

01:04:36.720 um but sometimes if i were to see her out in the wild i don't know it's hard to to differentiate

01:04:41.860 between her and faye johnstone so i would probably be confused myself um anyway do we i don't know if

01:04:48.340 we have any more super chats or rumble rants um or jay if you want to just spend a couple minutes

01:04:56.820 quickly on the bishop and the reaction at the inauguration from monday i would like to this is

01:05:02.920 the nutty thing that happened i mean we could end on it but this is a bishop that's being celebrated

01:05:08.720 by the mainstream media a christian all of a sudden is getting praise in the mainstream media this is

01:05:15.320 why of course in the name of our god i ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country

01:05:26.660 who are scared now there are gay lesbian and transgender children in democratic republican 0.94

01:05:37.560 and independent families some who fear for their lives and the people the people who pick our crops

01:05:48.360 and clean our office buildings who labor in poultry farms and meat packing plants

01:05:53.400 who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals they

01:05:59.120 may they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation

01:06:04.380 but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals they pay taxes and are good neighbors

01:06:13.200 they are faithful members of our churches and mosques synagogues wadara and temples

01:06:22.020 i ask you to have mercy mr president on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away

01:06:30.880 and that you help those who are fleeing war zones and persecution in their own lands

01:06:37.000 to find compassion and welcome here

01:06:39.900 our god teaches us that we are to be merciful to the stranger

01:06:47.620 for we will all want strangers in this land

01:06:53.680 yeah

01:06:56.480 probably stop it there but yeah i think that's enough

01:06:59.540 yeah that is enough i i just wanted to say that's uh a bishop from the i can never say the

01:07:06.260 epic episcopal church which has drag queen bishops so that should put everything in perspective let alone the haircut 0.98

01:07:15.000 right it's just so funny he did respond to it on social media if you want to look it up but

01:07:22.300 they all had this poker face and there is that moment when you look and you can see jd vance

01:07:27.200 look over at trump like is he gonna make it through this but the rest of them just had their poker face on

01:07:34.120 which was pretty good yeah i was i was actually pretty surprised uh yeah their ability to just kind of sit there

01:07:39.620 an eye roll and i mean jd vance is probably the most animated of them all which was tame

01:07:44.640 at best um but yeah i myself i'm like sometimes my face says more than my what i actually will say

01:07:54.100 and i would not have been able to sit there so poker face as some of them were

01:08:00.120 um anyway we didn't get to anything really davos related but for for anybody at home that wants to
