00:09:47.300You know, it's really sad that you come to set up a booth where you can have some conversations
00:09:51.120and then you get shouted down and intimidated.
00:09:55.300And if Dree hadn't brought her own security, I'm not sure what would have happened.
00:09:59.420It's embarrassing because I'm sure Dr. Flanagan has seen how things have changed on university campuses,
00:10:06.200having taught at campuses for so long.
00:10:09.400But I've seen that also the demographic shift very recently come back the other way. For example, we worry, you know, like, are the kids crazy? I think the kids are going to be okay. I saw a graph the other day that shows that if you had taken the older Canadians out of the equation, there would have been a conservative super majority.
00:10:30.060Our young people, and particularly our young people in the West, start off as very conservative. And as they get older, towards the boomer era, that age group, their conservatism drops off and their voting intention for liberals rises.
00:10:45.660So I agree with you. I think this is not organic. I think it is orchestrated. It's activist driven. And it really doesn't speak for the majority sentiment for students on either side of this issue. I think young people on either side of this issue, and I think here in the West, are willing to have this conversation. It's the activist groups who don't want them to have it.
00:11:11.360yeah many of the students weren't happy our colleague who was there helping with the camera
00:11:16.180work had two different women come up to her one uh was a metis woman who said she was disgusted by
00:11:21.880what she saw just happened the assault and and that she was actually happy we were here to have
00:11:26.520the discussion but i looked around the crowd and i'm like i don't really think this was led by
00:11:31.060like coming up here and taking these people out and i just believe in a democratic nation where
00:11:37.960we have the freedom of speech and you know no one was saying anything hateful my grandparents were
00:11:42.680in residential schools and when i hear people ask questions about the mass graves or about
00:11:47.880the policy changes that have been implemented because of the cultural narrative around
00:11:52.840residential schools i think that those are completely aware points that should be brought
00:11:58.920dialogue and debate like that's what i believe in and like people will act like i'm less
00:12:08.440indigenous because i think that and it's crazy the polarization is crazy right now
00:12:13.440but yeah wow thank you for sharing that because that's really good yeah you're right it was
00:12:19.160completely peaceful until those two gentlemen or i don't know there's just one guy myself yeah
00:12:24.300like i didn't come up until after everything had happened but i just know you know you'd have to
00:12:30.980be living under a rock right now to not understand yeah like the same thing keeps playing out over
00:12:37.700and over and over again and if somebody has an idea or a question that they want to discuss
00:12:41.960openly and then another group decides that that's not something you're allowed to say
00:12:46.300yeah and then people get extremely angry and worked up and like violent and emotional
00:12:51.420off because they don't like what's being said and i think it just points to like the disintegration
00:12:57.140of like western societies because all of a sudden we're not able to talk about ideas anymore yeah
00:13:03.060like that's the basis of our nation to be able to like talk freely and openly about ideas and
00:13:07.960my reason when at the end of the day not emotion so it's just crazy yeah another lady who wanted
00:13:16.300to be anonymous a young student was from China and she said it's very concerning that students
00:13:22.180are becoming like mouthpieces for the government essentially and that she thought it reminded her
00:13:27.360of communist China so there are some people but their voices they're too scared to come forward
00:13:32.560and that's why the Canadian students for free speech is so important because it's normalizing
00:13:37.720something as simple as the discussion of our Canadian history residential schools is all of
00:13:43.240our history. There should be no controversy about talking about it. And I know William Diaz-Berteom
00:13:52.120over at Canadian Students for Free Speech, a wild bill, as it were. I severely doubt that this will
00:13:58.720deter his efforts to engage in civil debate on campus. You know, he's really building on the
00:14:04.180legacy of Charlie Kirk. And this incident shows that William has a big job to do, and I'm fully
00:14:10.980confident that he will do it I think so too and he had some students helping there you know helping
00:14:17.820with the mic and stuff and so they got to see that too I heard one of them say you know now we know
00:14:22.020we have to do this because if you're going to get this much pushback not only the pushback even on
00:14:26.720line today that the lies the slander coming out they're saying we were selling shirts they're like
00:14:32.200it's just outrageous the hysteria that is going on about this just because you're having a simple
00:14:39.480discussion, was residential schools genocide or not? We just asked the question and discussed about
00:14:45.200it, had discussions about it. So I'm happy to see William's work. I think it's actually going to do
00:14:50.020the opposite as it usually does, including with killing Charlie Kirk, it does the opposite. So
00:14:54.980maybe you should stop harassing people doing these things, because it typically makes more people
00:15:00.140want to speak out when they see such outrageous attacks on free speech, expression, freedom of
00:15:07.320religion, et cetera. And that's the thing, you know, as you pointed out, you were accused of
00:15:14.400being a residential school denialist, but I think, and I don't want to work. And an orange shirt
00:15:19.660denialist, Sheila. That's the new one. What does that even mean? I'm an orange shirt denialist1.00
00:15:23.500because orange is really purple and I'm getting it wrong, I guess. It's very crazy because I think
00:15:31.020the majority of people have a nuanced view of this like yes it is bad to take children away
00:15:37.440from their parents um yes their bad things did happen there but it wasn't exclusively bad
00:15:44.680um other people take a different viewpoint and i think the truth as it often always is is somewhere
00:15:51.980in the middle but we're not even allowed to talk to each other or ask for evidence to find out what
00:15:56.920the real truth is and it's funny because i'll point to a video from wab canoe this morning the
00:16:02.260manitoba premier i don't know if you've seen it yet but he goes to like a residential school
00:16:06.540location and he says people have asked us where the bodies are they're right here and then he
00:16:10.060points to two well-marked cemeteries it's like that's not what we're asking we we know there's
00:16:16.780cemeteries we know people died what we're asking about is the 215 unmarked graves that nobody's
00:16:22.680ever bothered to investigate. And then he showed, you know, see, children died there. And then he
00:16:27.860shows contemporaneous news clippings. Nobody's saying people didn't die there. People are saying
00:16:33.920they, 250 of them didn't die the way you said they did. And he's showing news clippings. One
00:16:39.500kid died by lightning. One kid died in a farming accident. Several children died of illness and
00:16:45.060disease. So, you know, people are disputing that 215 kids were murdered and stuffed in the ground,
00:16:50.620never to be spoken of again. That's the problem here. Not to mention the millions of dollars
00:16:56.960and the political out, uh, fallout from this, the policies that have changed the holiday as we're
00:17:03.660filming this right now is birthed out of the unmarked grave, clandestine grave claims. I should
00:17:09.100say you've got to show just really quickly in case anybody's missed it, the argument that's come out
00:17:15.000from the council of first nations, a group of first nations that are coming together to call
00:17:19.600for criminalizations of reports and shows like this.
00:22:33.340well the last portion of the show as always goes to you our beloved viewer at home because without
00:22:45.500you. Of course, you know, there is no rebel news. I say it every week. I know you're getting sick of
00:22:49.260it, but I'm going to say it every week because it's important to acknowledge you. We don't take
00:22:54.660a penny from the government. We only rely on the support of our viewers at home and you folks are
00:22:59.580premium subscribers. So you've already gone above and beyond helping us, but the people who interact
00:23:05.780with our content, they have important opinions and I want to hear from them. So my friend Tamara
00:23:11.360Ugolini did a story earlier this week in, I suppose, honour of Truth and Reconciliation Day
00:23:20.560about who actually gets rich when it comes to the matter of truth and reconciliation. I'm going to
00:23:26.700show you a little clip of that video right now. On Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation,
00:23:31.260we need to do something a little bit uncomfortable, which is reconcile with the numbers. Since 2015,
00:23:36.960we've created an entirely new bureaucracy and paid out billions of dollars, but what exactly
00:23:41.420has anyone gotten for it besides a growing inventory of land claims? The approach around
00:23:46.740the Indian Act, the approach around our engagement with Indigenous peoples was very much looked at
00:23:53.620in a paternalistic, colonial way. Since 2015, federal spending on Indigenous programs has
00:24:01.620quadrupled from $10.3 billion a year to $46.5 billion. That's according to the public accounts
00:24:08.180as reported by Blacklock's reporter. A large and rising share of that money is not on water pipes
00:24:13.460or schools, it's claims, settlements and lawyers whose work product is title, compensation and
00:24:19.960control over land. Replacement of one department with two created 1,683 more federal employees
00:24:27.200in five years. Then Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giro told the Commons Indigenous Committee
00:24:32.660in 2023 that he found no proportional improvement in services to justify it. Increased spending did
00:24:39.760not result in a commensurate improvement in the ability of these organizations to achieve the
00:24:45.120goals they set for themselves, he said at the time. Specific claims and liabilities, it is a bit
00:24:49.780concerning that they have increased so much.
00:24:52.940It raises the question as to how firmly in control
00:24:57.500is the government with respect to these claims.
00:25:00.620If we keep discovering new claims, which
00:25:03.840are supposed to be based on historical facts,
00:25:07.600at a certain point, we should have a pretty good idea.
00:25:11.180That's exactly why we've launched a mission
00:25:13.300to hear directly from people with stories and experiences
00:25:17.800that can help shine a light on what is happening with all of this at reconciliationoverreach.com.
00:25:24.760Support independent journalism that follows the public accounts instead of the press releases
00:25:30.160there. Because none of this seems like it has much to do with reconciliation. Instead,
00:25:35.440what we've gotten is, well, a bigger bureaucracy and machine for processing claims.
00:25:41.640so let's go to the youtube comment section shall we mark wilson 5650 yugo that's tamera ugolini
00:25:50.620fears no subject she's doing her journalistic job based on fact no fear yugo is a legend
00:25:55.980she sure is and tamera ugolini does her research and she is unafraid to take an unpopular opinion
00:26:04.020as long as the facts back her up and that's exactly what you want in a journalist
00:26:09.420the boat adventure says it is the never-ending story the truth is the land is for the people
00:26:16.700who live on it and we live on it the world evolves by people migrating or we would all
00:26:22.680live in cities and not farm or mine the people of canada all canadians old and new have to start
00:26:27.700living under one rule a rule for everyone and not a rule for everybody meaning we will become one
00:26:35.140people, not a collection of individual nations within a border. Stop pursuing a perpetual agenda
00:26:41.660to argue for money and end the lawsuit with the statement, we have won, but have so much more to do.
00:26:51.120I think people are tired of the divisive two-tier justice system, two-tier sets of rights.
00:26:58.680If we are all Canadians, we are equal under the law, then there should be no separate set of sentencing guidelines for anybody. There should be no special rights for anybody. The rights should be protected by the government, but given to you by God, by virtue of your humanity. And I just, I don't think we see that in this country anymore.
00:27:25.140I guess that's the problem with multiculturalism versus being a melting pot, as is the case in the United States. We're seeing old Pierre Elliott Trudeau's chickens come home to roost.
00:27:38.040cheer t2 says well this government is basically stating that canada is a multicultural state so
00:27:44.980the first nations are also included and not the landlords for the government to government to
00:27:51.560continue giving our tax dollars to the chiefs to live in mansions travel to every political event
00:27:56.720and still have not invested with their first nation citizens in proper housing health care
00:28:03.700for addiction water education and being a contributor to the nation's economic growth
00:28:08.020and not being a continuous burden to the taxpayer because the government is purposefully causing
00:28:13.360civil unrest and hoping to bankrupt Canada and have every single Canadian dependent on the
00:28:19.020government for handouts to survive and be loyal to the evil globalists that want us to accept and
00:28:23.920sell our souls to these unholy narcissistic authoritarian cult regime that want godlike
00:28:28.420worship friend you're making a lot of good points in there but you got to got to use a comma a
00:28:35.840semicolon a period that was all one sentence our nation's relationship with the first nations has
00:28:43.060been built or has been planned for centuries to have a distraction from the government globalist
00:28:47.420unelected organizations billionaires and elites to ensure that we stay divided to implement more
00:28:52.120control over our citizens around the world for their own benefit and disposal with no humanity
00:28:56.560in lives but to keep their wealth power and fame secure at any cost including a lack of compassion
00:29:01.740for the ordinary citizen for entertainment purposes only okay again that's a lot use a
00:29:08.300use a period in there um i don't necessarily agree i don't necessarily disagree but
00:29:15.440under stephen harper there used to be something called the first nations transparency act
00:29:21.280and it allowed first nations people and all of us to see how where the money was going on reserve
00:29:30.620You know, like you can see where your mayor is spending your money. You can also see his expense report in a regular old Canadian community. There's no obligation for that to be done on First Nations communities. And why? Why don't First Nations people deserve to know where all that money's going? Or who's getting the nice house? And why?
00:29:54.580if you want to talk about systemic racism not allowing first nations people transparency
00:30:01.640that is systemic racism now it you'll never hear well let me preface that by saying not all but
00:30:12.180within the grievance industry there are some chiefs who will never complain about this and
00:30:18.100why do you think that is because they're benefiting benefiting from it now there are
00:30:22.860plenty of good chiefs who are accountable to their people. They publish this stuff online,
00:30:27.980even though they don't have to, and they are doing everything they can to pull their people
00:30:32.360out of generational poverty and ensure that their citizens will be able to have economic
00:30:40.800opportunity going forward. Chief Billy Morin was one of them. He's now a conservative MP in
00:30:46.160Edmonton. There are many good First Nations chiefs, but they're doing the quiet work1.00
00:30:51.900of helping their people and unshackling themselves from some of these restrictive
00:31:01.200government policies designed to keep people in poverty. And that is often not glamorous work.
00:31:08.420And so you don't hear a lot about them, but you do hear about the bad chiefs, don't you?
00:31:13.560and lastly mark gerard 6018 says i mourn for canada a lot of people do some of us however
00:31:24.480are done the morning and we're moving on to something better trying our best to do something
00:31:30.120better um i've gone through denial and all the processes of grief when it comes to this country
00:31:36.480And now I am at peace with the potential for a better Alberta.
00:31:44.760Well, everybody, that's the show for today.
