Rebel News Podcast - SHEILA GUNN REID ｜ CBC labelled 50% of potential Conservative voters in Quebec 'conspiracy theorists'

00:00:00.000 The Pope takes his apology tour to Quebec and then CBC labels 50% of conservative supporters in Quebec conspiracy theorists.

00:00:08.600 I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed and you're watching The Gunn Show.

00:00:10.700 Justin Trudeau drags an aging and frail old man out of semi-retirement to apologize for his role in the residential schools. 0.91

00:00:39.460 No, it's not Jean Chrétien, though it should be.

00:00:42.000 It's actually Pope Francis who is dragged halfway across the world to apologize for something the church has repeatedly apologized for.

00:00:49.420 And Jean Chrétien, well, he has not.

00:00:52.040 And yet he was the last Indian affairs minister to sign off on residential schools in Canada.

00:00:58.080 I'm reliably informed that he is still alive and could be dusted off and brought in front of the television cameras to make amends for his role in all this.

00:01:06.860 But he's a liberal, so it ain't going to happen.

00:01:10.080 And then CBC has now labeled half, one in two potential conservative party of Quebec voters as conspiracy theorists.

00:01:22.560 Now, the conspiracy theories they subscribe to, I think it might be that lockdowns don't seem to work and the vaccines aren't as effective as they told us they are.

00:01:35.520 That's it.

00:01:36.040 That puts you on the stratosphere with the people who think that the royal family are a bunch of lizards, according to the CBC.

00:01:44.420 Who's the conspiracy theorist there?

00:01:46.500 Anyway, joining us tonight to discuss this and more and what she's working on next is my rebel news colleague and friend, Alexa Lavoie.

00:02:04.080 So joining me now is my friend, Alexa Lavoie from her home in Montreal.

00:02:08.820 And there's so much to talk about, but before we get into some of the other things I want to talk about, the conservative movement in Quebec, I want to ask you about the visit of the Pope to Quebec.

00:02:21.480 So our Adam Sose and team covered the visit of the Pope to Alberta.

00:02:28.140 He went to Iqaluit as well.

00:02:30.260 And he also went to Quebec on yet another Catholic Church apology tour.

00:02:36.060 But you actually told the other side of the story, which I thought was wonderful, because the mainstream media, they don't actually talk to indigenous Catholics all that much.

00:02:48.380 They like to talk to the activists, but they don't really talk to the normal people.

00:02:52.080 But you did that.

00:02:53.500 Why don't you tell us about what the people told you?

00:02:55.900 So most of the time I ask the people if they think if the Pope was sincere on his apologies to the community.

00:03:10.180 And a lot of them say, yeah, it seems sincere.

00:03:13.700 It seems truly to pass a message.

00:03:17.520 But some of them was like, no, it's mixing climate change, Ukraine war, no mentioning the responsibility of the church in this and saying that I'm really disappointed of the apologies.

00:03:36.700 So I think, again, the opinion of the people was really polarized, I would say.

00:03:45.840 Some people were really into the Pope's order with like, I'm not even sure if that would make a difference in the hill of the community.

00:03:56.720 But I know one thing is like a lot of people agree that the money should have go and build better facility, giving them running water and helping them instead of bringing the Pope into Canada for an apology that it already did before.

00:04:17.760 So a lot of people were concerned about the life, the quality of life of the community and that just the money should have been spent somewhere else and the government should have apologized for what they did too because they had a big part of responsibility on all of this story.

00:04:42.040 Yeah, that was one of the things that I noticed that was the same with Adam's coverage.

00:04:47.540 So with Adam's coverage, a lot of the people said, you know, the apology is actually quite helpful to us.

00:04:55.040 For a lot of people, at least in Edmonton, they said it felt sincere and it would go a long way to healing them.

00:05:03.920 But overwhelmingly, didn't matter if you agreed with the Pope coming or not agreeing with the Pope coming.

00:05:09.000 Overwhelmingly, people said, we need tangible change on Canada's First Nations reserves.

00:05:16.300 There is no excuse for a certain segment of the population in a developed first world country to be living without running water, with poor housing.

00:05:28.780 And it's I mean, it's not just, you know, someone is homeless.

00:05:31.980 You have entire communities living in shacks of derelict housing and whether it is through underfunding or mismanagement, there has to be a better solution.

00:05:44.020 And a lot of people that Adam spoke to said, that's what we need.

00:05:47.780 This is nice, but that's what we need.

00:05:50.960 Exactly.

00:05:51.440 And it's what people told me.

00:05:54.720 Most of them were like our quality of life.

00:05:57.600 We still don't have running water.

00:06:00.620 Some of the water is toxic for us and we need to deal with that.

00:06:05.520 And like the poor poverty, it's it's incredible.

00:06:10.820 Oh, it's high in the native community.

00:06:13.600 And so the unfortunately, it's I have the impression that since 2015, when Justin Trudeau have promised so much change for them, nothing have moved from that time.

00:06:30.520 Right.

00:06:31.220 So Justin Trudeau is going to go out there and say, oh, but I got the Pope to apologize yet again when he actually hasn't done anything to keep the promises he made in 2015.

00:06:42.920 He made promises to the indigenous community for their votes and then abandoned them and actually mocked them.

00:06:50.620 I don't know if you remember that clip where I think it was in Saskatchewan.

00:06:55.500 Protesters, indigenous protesters came.

00:06:58.040 They bought tickets to his event so that they could they could get inside.

00:07:03.200 And they this was a First Nations reserve that had been mercury poisoned.

00:07:07.760 And instead of acknowledging that they had been mercury poisoned when they started protesting, he said,

00:07:12.440 thank you for your donation.

00:07:14.820 People in Rossi Narrows are suffering from mercury poisoning.

00:07:18.600 You committed to addressing this type of question.

00:07:21.340 Thank you for being here.

00:07:22.440 Thank you very much for your donation tonight.

00:07:24.880 I really appreciate it.

00:07:29.440 I just wouldn't even acknowledge that not only was their water not good, it was lethally poisoned.

00:07:36.840 And this is horrible.

00:07:39.600 Coming from our prime minister, the one who is in charge, not only of just, as we say, like white Canadian. 0.61

00:07:51.480 No, it's in charge of multicultural people.

00:07:55.660 It's not when they have, like, a serious problem that you need to take them, like, for encounter or just refuse to see them at all.

00:08:08.580 Like, now it's trying to get more.

00:08:12.800 It's trying to get people to like him using the native community.

00:08:19.380 No.

00:08:20.380 No.

00:08:20.760 It's not when that it's good for you that you need to do it.

00:08:25.200 They need you.

00:08:26.360 And what you're doing, you do nothing.

00:08:28.560 You just use them to make your face getting better to all the people are saying, like, oh, look at, oh, I'm good prime minister.

00:08:38.580 And now I'm taking care of the native and the community.

00:08:41.900 But you don't care.

00:08:44.160 You don't even care of all the other, like, multicultural people who are there, who did suffer from their country and suffer again here because you kill our democracy. 1.00

00:08:57.540 And in the same time, you actually don't help your own citizen.

00:09:04.520 So for me, it's just that I'm sorry, but this is just outrageous to come from someone who ruled the country.

00:09:15.940 Yeah, and I mean, if we're in the business of dragging old men out to make them apologize, where the heck is Jean Chrétien?

00:09:24.460 He was the last Indian affairs minister to sign off on the residential schools.

00:09:30.320 He is still alive and he is an active member of the Liberal Party.

00:09:34.040 Where is that guy?

00:09:36.000 Instead, to deflect away from the Liberal Party's role in making sure that the residential schools went on as long as they did, Justin Trudeau drags the Pope over here to get an apology instead of dragging Jean Chrétien out of his crypt or wherever he hides these days.

00:09:53.460 Yeah, because we didn't see him for a while.

00:09:57.020 And most of the time that we see him is because he's like Big Evan where lots of money is around him.

00:10:03.720 Yeah.

00:10:03.980 Really prestigious, like, you know, Evan.

00:10:07.100 But when it's come to make him accountable for some act that he did in the past or decision that he did in the past,

00:10:16.280 oh, he's not available and we cannot find him nowhere else.

00:10:23.640 Yeah, they say he's old, leave him alone.

00:10:25.400 Yeah, which is the same thing I would say about the Pope.

00:10:28.940 Exactly.

00:10:30.860 But no, I want to go ahead.

00:10:33.140 Just just for that, I make make me a little bit frustrated about this because a lot of people have been really mad about the Pope and writing so many bad comments.

00:10:45.820 But the Pope is in charge since 2013 and he was not in charge of the church when everything happened.

00:10:56.820 So he's talking, he take all the weight on his shoulder coming here and apologize for something that he had no power to change anything because he was not the one who was living at that moment.

00:11:13.200 But the one that was there, Zhang Keqiang, at that moment is not enough good to go out of his, I would say like, not tune, but almost that, to just do a one time out and apologize for what he was in charge.

00:11:34.540 And he had the power to make a difference.

00:11:37.900 Yeah.

00:11:38.720 Yeah.

00:11:39.340 And, you know, these people, these critics, and maybe I'm defensive because I'm Catholic, but I also acknowledge the dark spots of our history.

00:11:47.120 But maybe I'm defensive, but, you know, so often people say, oh, you religious people, you're superstitious, but I'm not the one who believes in generational curses.

00:11:57.660 You know what I mean?

00:11:59.020 That I have to be guilty of something that I am firmly against and I had no role in committing.

00:12:05.080 They want me to be guilty of that.

00:12:06.960 I don't believe in generational curses.

00:12:08.420 I take people based on their actions the way they are today.

00:12:11.260 Yeah, I would say I'm Catholic as well, and I don't believe on that, too.

00:12:18.560 I think it's karma.

00:12:19.960 I would more believe on karma.

00:12:22.240 If you are not a good person, that will come back to you.

00:12:25.460 If you're a good person, the good will come back to you, too.

00:12:29.320 So just you are responsible of your own action and you will live the consequences of your own action.

00:12:38.480 That's right.

00:12:39.120 Do you want to others?

00:12:39.780 Now, I wanted to ask you about this thing, because the CBC is discovering something that you have known for since you started with us.

00:12:49.480 Mainstream media with all their money and bailout bucks.

00:12:52.420 It takes them, you know, a year and a half to catch up to Alexa Lavoie. 0.81

00:12:57.440 This article in the CBC is from the end of July.

00:13:01.080 But if you missed it, that's fine, because nobody reads the CBC anyway.

00:13:04.420 They say Quebec's Conservative Party surges in the polls.

00:13:11.440 OK, that should have been the story.

00:13:12.880 But of course, this is the CBC.

00:13:14.280 So they have to say why that's bad.

00:13:16.240 And they say some of its candidates spread conspiracy theories.

00:13:19.820 And they say that this is a bad thing, but they never quite say what the conspiracy theories are in this entire article.

00:13:29.020 And I feel like that's probably important.

00:13:32.400 Judging by what I know about the CBC.

00:13:34.300 I think conspiracy theory means things that public health officers will figure out in six months from now that you already know that lockdowns are bad, that the vaccines really aren't working.

00:13:50.300 Empirically speaking, like wherever you fall down on vaccine mandates, they are not preventing transmission.

00:13:57.580 That's just a fact.

00:13:59.580 And if you had said that a little while ago, that I guess makes you a conspiracy theorist at the CBC, even though now public health offices are starting to say those things.

00:14:10.820 But CBC is very threatened that party leader, Eric Duhem, whom you have interviewed dozens of times at this point, or at least a dozen times in the last 15 months, his party has gone from being non-existent, just completely non-existent to gaining a seat in the legislature, polling at 20 percent.

00:14:32.820 And you really only need to get around 30 percent to form government.

00:14:37.200 And they, in the first six or seven months of the year, already at half a million dollars in donations.

00:14:43.120 So it's obvious that CBC is scared because this, Eric's party has been the only party that actually had a different viewpoint on COVID, that maybe we needed to be cautious, but also respect people's civil liberties.

00:14:59.160 Maybe we didn't need to be closing churches and locking up pastors and making people show their private medical information to a bartender.

00:15:06.600 That, I guess, makes you a conspiracy theorist with the CBC.

00:15:09.620 What's your take on all of this?

00:15:11.720 But I know a little bit, Eric Duhem, because I'm always covering what is going on because he's the only leader of a party in Quebec that will allow us to be there and to cover what he is doing.

00:15:27.420 He's not scared to answer any kind of question.

00:15:32.560 This person is really promoting pro-choice and he's talking really out loud about how the lockdown was bad, how that affects a lot of citizens.

00:15:45.520 And he's telling all about, like, the decisions from Mr. Legault was, and as well, like, when we see all the candidates that he had, okay, we have someone that's come from Cuba that really knows what is communism.

00:16:05.140 We have some doctors, some scientists, some people, some nurses, the candidate of Eric Duhem, I have one point in common.

00:16:18.500 It's pro-choice, my body, my choice.

00:16:21.360 Nobody should decide what is good for me if I decide that I don't want to.

00:16:28.500 And, yeah, they are just talking about, okay, like Mr. Legault said, what is the science in when I took the flight from Miami?

00:16:39.520 Miami, and I think it's Miami, and without a mask, arriving on air at the border with Canada, and everybody needed to put it back in his face, and he said, where is the science in that?

00:16:52.960 I'm with the same people in the same plane.

00:16:55.360 But when I cross in the air, the border with Canada, everybody, I tell them that they need to put back their mask, he said.

00:17:07.620 And it's probably why, because he's getting in the poll, and a lot of people is following him, and what he say is really contradictive with what Mr. Legault is telling.

00:17:21.240 So I think they use that as a tool, and every time that he's releasing a new candidate, the next day or hours after, you will see some things going out, because some researcher will have, like, check all the social media of the candidate to try to find something that would be bad for Eric.

00:17:44.680 And it's all the time the same thing, and because the election is coming soon, I think it's September, they will start the campaign.

00:17:54.640 Now, I have the impression that it's kind of a big war, like, to try to make him being low in the poll, because, yes, he has been admitted for one of the leadership debates, but the other one, he needs to be at a certain percentage in the poll.

00:18:14.680 I think it's 10%. I think it's 10%. I'm not even sure. But if he'd not reach that percentage, it would be out of the leadership debate.

00:18:23.380 So I don't know if it's like a tactic to maybe try to discredit his party, but as well, when the big research about the conspiracy movement in Quebec went out, they did survey 2000 people.

00:18:42.260 And on the 2000 people, they find out that 50, about 50%, I think, was voting for the Conservative Party of Quebec.

00:18:51.820 And they show as well for the People's Party of Canada.

00:18:56.240 But, of course, it took, I think, a couple of days, or maybe not even a day, that we see in the newspaper that 50% of the voters are conspiracy theorists.

00:19:12.620 I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's not what they're writing in the research, but they manipulate their research to make the people, the viewer, the people who read the article, thinking that 50% of the people who will vote for the Conservative Party are conspiracy theorists.

00:19:31.920 That is not true. But some people have wrote to the newspaper and saying, like, it's not accurate. This is not true. It's not what is shown in the article.

00:19:45.860 They are aware of it, but nobody has changed the article.

00:19:49.860 No, they don't care. You know that, though, firsthand, dealing with CBC, because you covered the story of Martin Englehart.

00:19:56.120 And he was the poor, downtrodden convoy supporter who has allegedly taken advantage of the convoy, and they basically hung him out to dry, and he didn't have any money, and blah, blah, blah.

00:20:08.600 He was just a con artist. And you dug down. You did a little extra layer of digging because you realized the story stunk.

00:20:18.600 And you also reached out to CBC saying, these are the new facts. Are you going to correct your story? And they never did.

00:20:23.780 No. So they say, they get back to me, say, can you tell me what is inaccurate? I will pass it along.

00:20:32.060 So they will investigate, and they will get back to you in 20 days.

00:20:37.800 It's been almost a month and a half now. No news.

00:20:43.420 No.

00:20:44.040 Yeah.

00:20:44.520 Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, with regard to this study that found that 50% of the Conservative Party of Quebec supporters were either convinced or moderate adherents of conspiracy theories,

00:20:56.440 they don't even say what those conspiracy theories are, although they briefly allude to them.

00:21:01.580 One of them, because they're discussing one of the candidates and how she's apparently some sort of kook. 0.97

00:21:07.460 And what she said was that she expressed doubts about the effectiveness of the vaccines.

00:21:16.780 And she basically said that maybe there are side effects to the vaccines that are being downplayed.

00:21:23.980 Well, as it turns out, I don't know how many vaccinated people, well, that have gotten COVID.

00:21:30.440 Joe Biden got it twice last week.

00:21:32.820 I think he's, like, quadruple vaccinated.

00:21:36.500 And then we just find out that they've actually even downplayed the extent to which myocarditis is a side effect for young males in the vaccine.

00:21:45.400 That it's even worse than what they were telling us.

00:21:48.080 And this is now, like, government sources that are saying these things.

00:21:52.520 But because she said it, and not some public health officer said it, she's a conspiracy theorist.

00:21:57.380 So we have to wait until, I don't know, Dina Hinshaw says it, or Theresa Tam says it, and then it's no longer a conspiracy theory.

00:22:04.620 People can't make up their minds for themselves, I guess.

00:22:07.660 No, and for them, as I say, they take the conspiracy theories that they wanted to take in account.

00:22:17.640 So the one who question the science, the one who question the measure, the decision, the government.

00:22:26.740 But they have a lot of conspiracy theory in life.

00:22:29.940 But for that, they really target the one who are questioning the science and questioning the government.

00:22:38.900 And of course, for them, it's just like, but they are conspiracy theory because they don't want to follow our science and say, yeah, you're right.

00:22:49.060 And no, you didn't, like, say anything wrong or you don't lie to us.

00:22:56.640 Because so many people have questions and they don't want to do a debate.

00:23:00.960 Especially our premiere did really mention that it will not have a debate with the people who believe on 5G and a chip in the skin in TV saying, like, I'm not going to debate with all of them because they think that everybody who question the science are all like that.

00:23:20.780 Oh, yeah. So they conflate people who say, and there's a lot of people out there who say, I got vaccinated and then I got COVID.

00:23:31.160 Maybe these things don't work. So they're actually calling the people who went along to get along.

00:23:35.940 You're calling them conspiracy theorists now, too.

00:23:38.040 And you're lumping them in with people who think that, you know, they're going to implant a microchip under your skin, which actually I think Jeremy's working on a story about how that technology does exist.

00:23:49.980 So, you know, like conspiracy theorists are sometimes people who are just ahead of the curve a little bit.

00:23:55.700 But it's funny because CBC should be careful who they call conspiracy theorists here, because this could force people to bleed off of the Liberal Party over to the Conservatives in Quebec.

00:24:07.660 Because in their own study, however flawed that it was, and UN funded, by the way, UNESCO funded, among Quebec Liberal supporters, 31% were classified as conspiracy theorists.

00:24:19.580 So these are skeptical liberals who are skeptical, who are like, after two years of this thing, you know, maybe, maybe I was wrong.

00:24:28.080 Because sometimes, you know, you need to look back to get a fuller picture.

00:24:32.000 And 29% of party Quebecois supporters are also saying, maybe we could have done this a different way.

00:24:39.460 They're calling them conspiracy theorists.

00:24:41.740 And so I think they should be careful because that might force people over into Eric Duhem's party.

00:24:48.600 You know, if you don't want him to win, you should be careful.

00:24:52.080 I think he's great.

00:24:52.940 But it's funny.

00:24:56.240 But even Liberal Party supporters who just break with the party on this one issue, they're also crazy now.

00:25:02.980 But I don't know if it's something that happened as well in Alberta.

00:25:06.520 But I know that in Quebec province, mainstream media and a lot of, how you call it, columnists, did use a lot, a lot of band names to try to discredit the people who were questioning or thinking differently than the government.

00:25:25.260 We had so many different band names and it's beginning to be a tool.

00:25:32.380 And now it's beginning to be normal, normalized to call the people who are voting, for example, for the Conservative Party or have a different view, to call them just normally conspiracy theory.

00:25:48.680 So that will put the people in the, to think, do you really, I want to be called like that or I would just change my idea and just go with the flow of the society.

00:26:01.560 So I think it's really a tool that people will feel really uncomfortable to go and expose themselves to be called a conspiracy theory and saying like, I'm just going to be as normal citizen and I don't want to be part of that.

00:26:21.160 And they would just change probably their mind or something like that.

00:26:23.840 Yeah, it takes a special person to be a rebel when everybody's telling you to do one thing and say one thing.

00:26:30.120 It takes a special person to say, actually, I think that's wrong.

00:26:33.940 This is what I think.

00:26:35.700 And yeah, like when you mentioned Alberta, three of our seven leadership candidates are openly anti-lockdown, anti-vax mandate.

00:26:43.860 And I think two of the three lockdown resistors are openly questioning the efficacy of vaccines all the time.

00:26:54.360 And so I guess it takes someone like Eric Duhem in Quebec to normalize that opinion for to say to people, actually, it's OK to hold that opinion.

00:27:04.000 I mean, it's a little bit more OK in Alberta since it's, you know, a topic of conversation everywhere because we're in the middle of a leadership election.

00:27:12.260 But Eric's the only one talking about it there.

00:27:15.440 Yeah, but exactly.

00:27:17.160 Us in the National Assembly, if Eric Duhem wasn't there, everybody have the same narrative.

00:27:23.380 We have no people who do a real opposition to what is going on in Quebec.

00:27:29.260 And it's probably mainly why we had the most strict measure, lockdown, really more strict, the police enforcement, curfew.

00:27:39.800 And they were able to do whatever they want because they didn't have anybody to say, no, you should not do that.

00:27:45.760 This is not good for the citizen or it's like the curfew.

00:27:50.300 Do you have like any proof that is working?

00:27:52.720 Nobody was questioning anything until like Claire Samson, that is the MP of Monsieur Duhem at the National Assembly,

00:28:03.720 jumped from the CAC, François Legault, to the Conservative Party because she was like, he is disrespecting my county, my writing.

00:28:16.960 And she offered $100 to the party and it took not even 24 hours that they find out and they just exposed her from the caucus.

00:28:28.940 So she said, OK, I see you, she jumped with Eric Duhem.

00:28:33.520 Now, I wanted to ask you, moving on to some other things that you're working on.

00:28:39.720 I don't want to give too much of it away because you are working on it.

00:28:42.640 But what's the next big story in the pipeline for Alexa Lavoie?

00:28:51.300 Right now I'm working with Joannie.

00:28:54.400 Joannie, for the people who don't know the story of Joannie, she's a really young woman.

00:29:02.720 She's in the 30s. 0.99

00:29:04.640 She has cystic fibrosis and she went to the hospital in October 2021.

00:29:11.980 And they refused her the transplant, the lung transplant because she was not vaccinated.

00:29:19.080 And she had some really bad allergic reaction to vaccine in the past.

00:29:26.960 So for her, having a vaccine can maybe declare a death or maybe other disease that would just happen.

00:29:39.900 And so right now she's still being denied.

00:29:43.240 Same if she got COVID in last May, I think.

00:29:46.800 She's completely paralyzed on the face and she don't want to die.

00:29:57.020 She's going to.

00:29:59.880 She has no choice anymore because nobody is answering her call.

00:30:04.800 Nobody wants to talk to her until she gets the vaccine. 0.99

00:30:09.900 And so she has no choice.

00:30:11.260 I think she will just comply and take it.

00:30:14.440 But we're going to continue to go.

00:30:17.760 I decided that we go again to the College des Médicins, a college of physicians.

00:30:24.320 I'm going to try to contact some politicians because I think politicians should be aware that our doctor,

00:30:35.580 our college of physicians, decided to let someone die.

00:30:39.260 Because she's not vaccinated against COVID-19.

00:30:44.420 They say that she cannot have the transplant because she can die afterwards by the COVID-19.

00:30:51.200 But she's going to die anyway.

00:30:53.080 So can we help her?

00:30:55.080 Yeah.

00:30:55.380 And she's naturally immune at this point.

00:30:58.040 Yeah.

00:30:58.500 But they don't believe that.

00:30:59.960 It seems.

00:31:00.380 So this is one of really heartbreaking stories for me.

00:31:07.640 It's really hard because I saw her at the beginning and I see how she is nine months after.

00:31:15.700 And I think you have not long for her.

00:31:24.160 She will not last long.

00:31:25.380 It's terrible.

00:31:27.000 If people want to see your original report before they watch the one that's coming up,

00:31:31.440 they can go to savejoannie.com.

00:31:34.360 .ca.

00:31:34.900 .ca.

00:31:35.680 .ca.

00:31:36.220 Perfect.

00:31:36.560 Thank you very much.

00:31:38.080 You know, you've been a very strong advocate for her.

00:31:41.920 You know, they've basically decided that they are God over her and she must do what they do.

00:31:49.020 She must join their COVID religion so that she can save her own life. 0.92

00:31:54.080 What a, what a, she, it's like being forced to convert or die.

00:31:59.440 That's what she has to do.

00:32:00.720 It's just awful.

00:32:01.660 It's terrible.

00:32:02.920 Um, but, uh, I'm so glad that you're on her side, Alexa.

00:32:06.940 Um, thank you so much for jumping on the call today, Alexa.

00:32:09.920 Um, we, I, I should have you on the show more often.

00:32:13.800 Um, and we're filming this on Tuesday, so we already spend an hour and a half together.

00:32:17.820 I could talk, I could talk to you all day, Alexa.

00:32:22.040 Thanks so much for coming on the show.

00:32:23.300 And thank you so much for the great work that you do, not just for the residents of Quebec,

00:32:27.200 but also for Canadians as well.

00:32:29.440 Thank you very much for having me.

00:32:37.880 Well, we've come to the portion of the show where I want to hear from you.

00:32:41.200 Unlike the mainstream media who will call you a conspiracy theorist for holding a slightly

00:32:45.100 different viewpoint than them.

00:32:46.200 I want to hear your opinion.

00:32:48.740 I want to know what you think about the work that we're doing or the stories that we're

00:32:51.920 covering.

00:32:52.700 That's one of the reasons I give out my email address at this point.

00:32:55.420 It's Sheila at rebelnews.com.

00:32:56.940 Put gun show letters in the subject line.

00:32:58.600 So it's easy for me to find because I get some days, hundreds of emails a day, but put gun

00:33:04.380 show letters in the subject line.

00:33:05.740 It'll be really easy for me to find and read.

00:33:08.260 But I also go looking through sometimes the rumble comments.

00:33:12.180 So there are a couple different ways to have your voice heard by me and perhaps by everybody

00:33:19.280 else when I read your question or email or comment on air.

00:33:23.420 So today's question, comment, letter comes to us from Scott Taylor, who writes, Hi, Sheila.

00:33:32.100 The legacy mainstream media may have won the battle, but the truth always wins the war.

00:33:37.060 Except, I guess, until such time as big tech censors the truth.

00:33:41.960 Anyway, let's keep going. 0.69

00:33:43.400 How dishonest Trudeau is on spreading lies.

00:33:45.840 Perhaps his BS can be used by the farmers on their fields.

00:33:49.060 True Singh Trudeau proudly shouts that we must do our part on reducing the climate footprint

00:33:54.260 while polluting the air with his constant air travel.

00:33:57.580 Actually, this week he's in Costa Rica.

00:33:59.040 He's on a two week vacation in Costa Rica.

00:34:03.040 Chances are he did not have to go through the airport hellscape of Toronto Pearson.

00:34:09.960 Once a mighty airport, a great airport.

00:34:12.900 I like Toronto Pearson.

00:34:14.000 Whenever I'm in the office, I've got to go through Toronto Pearson.

00:34:18.180 Or if I'm traveling abroad, I always have to connect through Toronto Pearson.

00:34:22.160 And I always kind of like that airport.

00:34:23.540 I found it previously, quite convenient.

00:34:26.720 But now, if you have checked your luggage, you can kiss it goodbye.

00:34:30.800 You'll never see it again.

00:34:33.140 That is, of course, if you have your passport.

00:34:36.300 Because that's also a disaster in Canada.

00:34:39.060 Anyway, let's keep going. 1.00

00:34:40.820 And taking a photo op on a BC steam train just shows how stupid he is. 1.00

00:34:46.080 And, well, for a bunch of different reasons. 1.00

00:34:49.180 I mean, he wanted Canadians to wear masks on trains and planes.

00:34:53.340 But he's taking a photo on a steam train completely maskless.

00:34:56.820 But as our friend Scott points out, steam trains are powered by putting wood or coal in the firebox to heat the water and create steam.

00:35:05.460 What a mob of lies.

00:35:06.640 Keep up the amazing rebel reporting.

00:35:08.620 Scott from St. Thomas, Ontario.

00:35:10.660 Yeah, it's just like Justin Trudeau, when he first announced the plastics ban.

00:35:15.260 Again, I found myself talking about plastic every single week.

00:35:17.860 But, you know, I love plastic, especially single-use plastic.

00:35:21.160 But when he announced the plastic ban, one intrepid reporter, probably fired from the mainstream media at this point for actually asking an effective and good question,

00:35:31.080 asked Justin Trudeau what he does to reduce his use of plastics in his life.

00:35:35.840 And he said he drinks from drink box water bottle sort of things because he didn't know what to say.

00:35:44.780 And his brain malfunctioned at the junction.

00:35:47.360 And he actually has never even thought about reducing plastics.

00:35:51.380 So when somebody asked him how he did it, he literally had no clue.

00:35:54.900 Because, well, first of all, he wasn't ever expecting a tough accountability question from the mainstream media.

00:36:00.400 But he's never actually thought about doing the things that he wants you to do.

00:36:05.620 We have recently switched to drinking water bottles out of water out of when we have water bottles out of plastic.

00:36:16.360 Sorry, away from plastic towards paper, like drink box water bottles sort of things.

00:36:23.000 Do you think he's actually worried about whether or not his utensils are single-use plastic while he's getting room service or laying out by the beach in Costa Rica?

00:36:33.580 I don't think so.

00:36:34.340 These are rules for you and for me, but definitely not for him.

00:36:38.240 Well, everybody, that's the show for tonight.

00:36:39.860 Thank you so much for tuning in.

00:36:41.360 I'll see everybody back here in the same time, in the same place next week.

00:36:44.540 Thank you to everybody in the studio in Toronto, but also around the country who works to put the show together for you and for me.

00:36:52.100 And remember, don't let the government tell you that you've had too much to think.

00:37:22.100 Thank you.
