Summary

The Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCMP) is a UN pact that would see Canada become an official signatory to the Global Compact on Migration by the end of 2020. In this episode, Sheila Gunn-Reed and Catherine Bain join me to talk about why Canada should not sign on to the GCMP.


Transcript

00:00:00.200 Tonight we're talking about the UN Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration
00:00:05.980 with one of the two people who started the House of Commons e-petition
00:00:09.620 against Canada becoming an official signatory of the agreement.
00:00:14.720 I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed and you're watching The Gunn Show.
00:00:30.000 Have you heard about the UN Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration yet?
00:00:41.500 If you haven't, I can tell you why that probably is, but I'll get to that in a second.
00:00:47.040 This Global Compact for Migration, it's not about refugees or people fleeing violence, persecution, war, disease or even famine.
00:00:56.040 This UN Compact deals specifically with economic migration.
00:01:00.260 Or as the UN puts it, migration motivated by inequality, trade, changing demographics, connectivity and even climate change.
00:01:08.560 Now some of this migration compact is good, but most of it is awful.
00:01:13.520 Two separate portions do some good by dealing with human trafficking.
00:01:17.860 But what the worst thing this compact will do is make migration from one country to another a human right
00:01:25.380 and not something determined by a sovereign state based upon merit and need of the sovereign state.
00:01:32.320 And of course, with made-up human rights in these crazy modern times, also comes expensive entitlements.
00:01:39.060 Part of the pact deals with ensuring benefits, supports, training and health care are not denied to migrants based upon migration status.
00:01:49.620 Signing on to this UN agreement will be a horrendous surrender of Canadian sovereignty
00:01:54.400 and the ability for Canadian citizens to make decisions for themselves about their own independent country.
00:02:00.640 Instead, all of that power will be ceded over to the United Nations.
00:02:04.940 And I guess to the migrants themselves because it would become a human right for anyone to come into Canada.
00:02:11.440 And then it would be our obligation as Canadians to help them do it
00:02:15.240 and then foot the bill for them when they do get here, regardless of our ability to pay for that enormous bill.
00:02:22.360 Now, let's talk about the reason you've been kept in the dark about the UN Compact on Migration.
00:02:29.100 The mainstream media in Canada has absolutely not been talking about the Global Compact on Migration
00:02:35.640 or even really what mass, unvetted, unrestrained migration will do to Canada.
00:02:41.360 And there is one very important reason for that.
00:02:44.580 You can find a reason for that under Section 17 of the pact itself.
00:02:49.720 The objective to eliminate all forms of discrimination and promote fact-based public discourse
00:02:56.280 to shape perceptions of migration.
00:03:00.240 It reads,
00:03:01.280 Promote independent, objective, and quality reporting of media outlets,
00:03:06.720 including by sensitizing media professionals on migration related to issues and terminology.
00:03:14.360 Okay, let's stop right there.
00:03:15.460 If your reporting is shaped by the United Nations and the government
00:03:20.120 and a pact that the government signed on to instead of the facts as you see them,
00:03:25.260 then that's not reporting.
00:03:26.780 That's propaganda.
00:03:28.420 And any reporter who submits themselves to this sensitizing or retraining is not a reporter at all,
00:03:34.320 but rather a propagandist.
00:03:36.280 Anyway, let's go on.
00:03:37.520 Section 17 also calls for investing in ethical advertising,
00:03:42.740 restricting public funding and material support to media outlets
00:03:46.440 that systematically promote intolerance, xenophobia, racism,
00:03:51.740 and other forms of discrimination towards migrants.
00:03:55.660 What this really means is if you tell the truth about the effects of mass migration,
00:04:00.380 you don't qualify for government subsidies, grants, support,
00:04:03.780 or advertising dollars spent by the government at your network.
00:04:08.760 That would hit the CBC.
00:04:10.320 But it also hits any media company that wants to sell advertising to a federal agency.
00:04:16.360 And it also hits media companies who are looking for a federal government handout
00:04:21.160 via the Canadian Media Fund,
00:04:24.260 which is basically all of them except for us here at The Rebel.
00:04:27.780 There are a few voices at post media like Anthony Fury and Lorne Gunter
00:04:32.720 who have been writing about the pact,
00:04:34.920 but that's pretty well it.
00:04:36.620 We don't take the liberal handouts here at The Rebel because we are truly independent
00:04:41.060 and we don't take our marching orders from the United Nations via Justin Trudeau.
00:04:46.420 And that's why tonight I have someone who noticed the problem
00:04:50.300 with the global compact on migration
00:04:52.500 and decided to do something, anything about it.
00:04:56.200 She started the House of Commons e-petition with George Brown
00:05:00.620 that ultimately became sponsored by People's Party of Canada MP Maxime Bernier.
00:05:06.720 The petition calls on the government to not sign the migration pact.
00:05:11.060 So joining me tonight from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
00:05:14.640 is citizen activist Catherine Bain.
00:05:17.740 Joining me now from Sault Ste. Marie is one of the people behind this latest e-petition
00:05:41.360 to the Canadian Parliament about the global compact on migration.
00:05:45.360 And I wanted to have Catherine on because we're not talking about this compact on migration
00:05:51.440 in the North American media really at all,
00:05:55.000 although it is really being focused on in the European area
00:06:00.440 because Europe is really experiencing the downfall to mass migration.
00:06:06.060 And I think Catherine and the people behind her petition
00:06:09.320 are sort of trying to warn Canadians about what signing this compact will bring to Canada.
00:06:15.800 So Catherine, thank you so much for joining me.
00:06:18.540 Why don't you tell me how your petition got started?
00:06:22.980 Well, thank you very much for having us
00:06:25.060 and for enabling patriotic Canadians to at least have some sort of voice on this issue.
00:06:31.620 It may be the only referendum that they get.
00:06:35.540 We have found through the course of fighting the Green Energy Act in Ontario
00:06:42.160 that the UN says things beautifully.
00:06:46.080 It all sounds like motherhood and apple pie, but it rarely is.
00:06:50.780 So we have gone through Agenda 21, which actually eroded people's property rights.
00:06:56.500 It's Agenda 2030, which encroaches on freedom of speech.
00:07:02.600 And now we have this latest migration, not immigration, migration compact,
00:07:10.960 which will erode our sovereignty.
00:07:14.260 As indicated in the petition, there are several countries
00:07:17.740 which have cited this erosion of sovereignty for their own nations
00:07:23.720 because in the detail of this lengthy document,
00:07:32.920 they have such gems as...
00:07:36.440 Let me get this.
00:07:38.260 I'll read it to you.
00:07:39.560 And if you doze off, I'll understand
00:07:41.280 because this is one of the problems.
00:07:44.720 They have such long texts
00:07:47.280 and embedded in them are critical points.
00:07:51.300 So they're saying we learned that migration is the defining feature
00:07:56.340 of our globalized world,
00:07:58.980 connecting societies within and across all regions,
00:08:02.960 making us all countries of origin, transit and destination.
00:08:08.640 We recognize that there is a continuous need for internal efforts
00:08:13.920 to strengthen our knowledge and analysis of migration,
00:08:17.860 as shared understanding will improve policies
00:08:21.360 that unlock the potential of sustainable development for all.
00:08:26.180 We must collect and disseminate quality data.
00:08:31.720 We must ensure that current and potential migrants
00:08:35.020 are fully informed about their rights, obligations,
00:08:38.960 and options for safe, orderly and regular migration
00:08:44.240 and are aware of the risks of irregular migration.
00:08:48.940 We must also provide all our citizens with access
00:08:53.800 to objective, evidence-based, clear information
00:08:58.580 about the benefits and challenges of migration
00:09:01.680 with a view to dispelling misleading narratives
00:09:05.320 that generate negative perceptions of migrants.
00:09:09.820 Now, that last, right off the bat,
00:09:12.580 is where you find the media are supposed to be re-educated
00:09:18.320 so that they won't say anything derogatory about migrants.
00:09:22.420 And we've seen where that leads with these cases
00:09:25.940 where there is violence by someone of a certain race or religion
00:09:34.800 or, you know, one of the preferred victim groups
00:09:40.040 and the actual victim of the crime can't get any justice
00:09:47.120 because they're not high enough on that priority list.
00:09:52.660 You know what, I'm just going to interrupt here.
00:09:54.520 We actually saw that with the Tommy Robinson case in the UK.
00:09:59.340 It was so culturally sensitive that the UK public
00:10:06.640 wasn't really finding out about these rape gangs
00:10:10.220 because the media was covering in such a self-censoring,
00:10:15.040 sensitive way that it actually makes it more dangerous
00:10:19.160 for the UK public.
00:10:20.440 And Tommy Robinson sort of became a martyr
00:10:24.200 for that information cause to sound the alarm bells.
00:10:29.360 And this is exactly what it sounds like
00:10:31.980 this Global Compact on Migration calls for,
00:10:34.940 this re-education of journalists.
00:10:37.620 Actually, one of the key points that I was reading
00:10:40.000 through this very verbose compact on migration,
00:10:45.160 one of the things it calls for is strengthening hate crimes legislation,
00:10:50.420 which just becomes the inability for the public
00:10:55.000 to speak out about certain things.
00:10:58.180 It's okay to say disagreeable things in a free and liberal society.
00:11:03.680 It's not okay to do disagreeable things,
00:11:06.160 but speech and ideas should not be governed by the government
00:11:09.700 or, for that matter, the UN.
00:11:11.140 But that is one of the things that is being called for
00:11:13.520 in this UN Compact on Migration,
00:11:15.840 a limiting of the rights of the people who live in the countries
00:11:20.860 that the migrants are coming to.
00:11:22.860 This thing is all about migrants' rights,
00:11:24.960 but it's not about protecting the rights of the people in the country
00:11:27.120 the migrants are coming to.
00:11:28.240 No, not at all.
00:11:31.180 And in fact, it's not just the media that are being re-educated.
00:11:36.920 It is the police, the institutions.
00:11:40.820 This penetrates so deeply into our civilization
00:11:46.180 that it is truly frightening
00:11:48.940 because when you find that the police themselves
00:11:53.240 are now blaming the victims,
00:11:56.460 you know, to whom do you turn?
00:12:01.500 Right.
00:12:02.900 Concomitant with this,
00:12:04.560 there are more pressures to reduce people's access
00:12:09.620 to guns or anything for self-defense.
00:12:14.860 So, it's, you know,
00:12:18.580 the UN has assumed that migration,
00:12:24.620 because they have allowed it,
00:12:26.880 I mean, we're talking the UN,
00:12:29.480 this giant mission failure,
00:12:32.840 because of all the things that they list
00:12:36.000 as this compact is based upon,
00:12:41.080 they failed.
00:12:42.300 They failed dismally,
00:12:44.760 and in many instances,
00:12:47.780 catastrophically.
00:12:49.060 So, where they have been called upon to render aid,
00:12:51.800 it's actually been
00:12:53.200 further victimization of peoples.
00:12:58.020 One of the, sorry,
00:12:59.320 one of the things that I noticed
00:13:01.840 in the Compact on Migration
00:13:04.800 is that they want governments
00:13:07.880 to use immigration detention
00:13:11.740 only as a last resort.
00:13:14.800 So, when people are flooding your border
00:13:16.620 and crossing illegally,
00:13:18.660 the UN is calling on the signatories
00:13:20.440 of this PAC
00:13:21.380 to basically do a catch and release program.
00:13:25.080 Well, where's the deterrent?
00:13:27.000 If you're not arresting people
00:13:28.680 for crossing your border illegally
00:13:29.880 and you're just catching and releasing them,
00:13:31.800 eventually there will come a time
00:13:33.180 where you cannot process
00:13:34.400 all those people you've caught and released.
00:13:36.700 And so, I guess the expectation
00:13:38.580 is for these countries
00:13:39.640 to just throw up their hands
00:13:41.740 and allow an amnesty
00:13:43.800 just by overwhelming the system.
00:13:48.520 Yes.
00:13:49.360 Swarming, basically.
00:13:51.720 And they are very astute
00:13:56.520 at demonizing other people
00:13:59.700 for wanting to protect themselves
00:14:04.640 and yet they bend over backwards
00:14:07.320 saying that these migrants
00:14:09.460 have a right to go anywhere they want.
00:14:13.960 So, you know,
00:14:16.900 you're left with,
00:14:19.560 you're damned if you do
00:14:20.660 and you're damned if you don't
00:14:22.100 because they will find a way
00:14:24.980 to bring evidence.
00:14:28.920 And part of the,
00:14:32.980 you know,
00:14:33.360 they're claiming they're going to do
00:14:35.280 all of this evidence-based decision-making,
00:14:38.860 but they are not actually responding
00:14:41.180 to existing data
00:14:42.720 that we have on,
00:14:44.260 for instance,
00:14:44.880 the number of crimes committed
00:14:46.160 by illegal aliens.
00:14:48.100 They want to ignore existing data
00:14:52.540 and yet they want to be intrusive
00:14:56.660 in their data gathering.
00:14:59.600 Now, it makes no sense.
00:15:04.600 And we've seen with the instance of,
00:15:07.440 well, climate change
00:15:08.940 is one of the UN's pet projects.
00:15:11.880 It's sometimes used
00:15:13.620 as the excuse for migration,
00:15:15.760 although there has been
00:15:17.000 no observable increase
00:15:19.680 in global temperatures.
00:15:22.180 And in fact, there's a decline.
00:15:24.920 And yet they're not willing to,
00:15:30.340 you know,
00:15:33.420 the science is settled.
00:15:36.640 They will only take one type of data
00:15:40.040 and that has been adjusted
00:15:42.120 and the rest of it,
00:15:44.080 well, goes by the board.
00:15:45.820 So do we want to put ourselves
00:15:48.380 in an agreement
00:15:50.560 with an agency
00:15:52.600 that is so prone
00:15:55.040 to corrupting data
00:15:57.680 and once they have the data,
00:16:01.800 there's no guarantee
00:16:02.820 that it won't be used
00:16:04.440 for nefarious purposes by others.
00:16:07.120 Well, and I think there's something
00:16:08.560 that Canadian taxpayers,
00:16:10.820 no matter what they feel
00:16:11.620 about mass migration
00:16:12.920 and what it does
00:16:14.680 to the culture of the places
00:16:15.880 that mass migration occurs into,
00:16:20.640 I think the average Canadian
00:16:23.320 should be concerned
00:16:24.520 about the financial obligations
00:16:26.320 that the UN is calling on
00:16:28.480 the countries
00:16:29.420 who are signatories
00:16:30.620 to this pact to commit to.
00:16:32.820 One of them is the portability
00:16:34.960 of social security
00:16:36.760 entitlements and benefits.
00:16:38.420 So if a migrant goes to work
00:16:40.220 in another country,
00:16:40.880 they can still take with them
00:16:42.160 their social security benefits
00:16:44.780 from the prior country.
00:16:47.300 And there's no specifics
00:16:50.160 about how that works out.
00:16:51.700 Would that obligate Canada
00:16:53.200 to pay UK social security rates
00:16:56.200 to a migrant
00:16:57.320 from who's passed through the UK?
00:16:59.560 We don't even know what that means.
00:17:01.200 And there's another thing.
00:17:02.080 It specifically calls on the countries
00:17:06.860 participating in this pact
00:17:08.220 to provide care and assistance
00:17:11.780 to the migrants.
00:17:13.500 And we have to remember,
00:17:14.640 these are not refugees.
00:17:17.140 These are not people
00:17:17.840 who are coming to Canada
00:17:19.000 with nothing.
00:17:20.440 These are people
00:17:21.260 who are just transferring
00:17:23.180 through countries
00:17:24.180 for economic purposes.
00:17:26.160 One of them,
00:17:26.920 like even some of the reasons
00:17:29.880 that the UN cites
00:17:32.600 for migrants
00:17:33.540 to be traveling
00:17:34.320 from country to country,
00:17:35.780 they're mostly purely economic.
00:17:38.020 So trade,
00:17:39.520 economic inequality,
00:17:40.680 even demographic imbalance
00:17:42.740 is one of the reasons
00:17:44.160 that Canada should open
00:17:45.580 its borders
00:17:46.280 to anybody
00:17:47.580 who wants to waltz in
00:17:49.160 and then pay for their care
00:17:50.400 and their comfort
00:17:51.060 for, you know,
00:17:52.440 generations to come.
00:17:53.620 I think normal Canadians
00:17:55.960 would be opposed to that.
00:17:58.400 There's no fairness
00:17:59.720 for the country
00:18:02.480 that's being,
00:18:03.720 I'll say,
00:18:04.700 invaded
00:18:05.220 when you have
00:18:08.520 a system of social benefits
00:18:11.600 that people have paid in
00:18:13.120 for generations
00:18:14.760 and then it's being diverted
00:18:17.080 to people
00:18:17.740 who have not contributed
00:18:19.500 and who show
00:18:21.360 no great potential
00:18:22.800 for contributing.
00:18:26.540 You realistically
00:18:28.580 cannot have
00:18:30.160 open borders
00:18:31.360 and a welfare state.
00:18:33.940 And as we've seen
00:18:34.760 from the model of Europe,
00:18:37.180 people that went to,
00:18:39.900 I don't know,
00:18:40.500 they landed in Italy
00:18:41.760 or somewhere
00:18:42.400 and found
00:18:43.720 that the
00:18:44.400 social benefits
00:18:46.420 were not
00:18:47.160 up to snuff
00:18:48.560 and they went
00:18:49.840 all the way
00:18:50.440 to Sweden
00:18:51.080 because it has
00:18:52.840 more
00:18:53.500 to offer
00:18:55.020 in the way
00:18:55.840 of
00:18:56.340 handouts.
00:18:59.080 Now,
00:18:59.920 again,
00:19:01.020 we talked about
00:19:01.600 how this is
00:19:02.600 being talked about
00:19:04.620 a lot in Europe
00:19:05.360 but not here
00:19:06.240 in North America.
00:19:07.640 There are
00:19:08.320 several European states
00:19:11.400 who are either
00:19:12.240 saying a complete
00:19:13.320 and flat-out no
00:19:14.280 to this
00:19:14.940 or maybe
00:19:16.500 a hard no.
00:19:18.740 So it's
00:19:19.380 Austria,
00:19:20.200 Hungary,
00:19:20.820 Poland,
00:19:21.840 the German
00:19:22.600 Conservative Party
00:19:23.840 has come out
00:19:24.460 strong against this,
00:19:25.360 Merkel not yet,
00:19:26.380 although she's
00:19:26.840 on her way
00:19:27.200 out the door,
00:19:28.300 and Czechoslovakia
00:19:30.640 I believe
00:19:31.100 is either
00:19:31.840 a no
00:19:33.240 or a maybe
00:19:34.040 hard no
00:19:34.720 to come.
00:19:35.580 And then our
00:19:35.960 friends in the
00:19:36.440 United States
00:19:37.080 have absolutely
00:19:37.920 said no
00:19:39.100 to ceding
00:19:39.860 their sovereignty
00:19:40.720 over to the
00:19:41.500 United Nations.
00:19:42.860 Why do you
00:19:43.580 think Canada
00:19:44.160 is okay
00:19:44.920 with this?
00:19:47.800 Well,
00:19:48.840 it could be
00:19:49.320 anything from
00:19:50.160 the fact that
00:19:51.320 Justin Trudeau
00:19:52.360 wants a seat
00:19:53.040 on the Security
00:19:53.800 Council
00:19:54.340 to the fact
00:19:56.620 that we
00:19:57.680 have for
00:19:58.560 quite some
00:19:59.140 time allowed
00:20:00.240 the penetration
00:20:01.620 of the
00:20:02.960 UN
00:20:03.380 through
00:20:04.500 sustainable
00:20:07.380 development.
00:20:08.500 There is
00:20:09.420 an entity
00:20:10.020 called
00:20:10.780 ICLEI.
00:20:12.460 It's the
00:20:12.880 International
00:20:13.420 Council for
00:20:14.360 Local
00:20:14.740 Environmental
00:20:15.460 Initiatives
00:20:16.440 founded way
00:20:17.420 back in
00:20:18.060 1990.
00:20:20.360 And
00:20:20.560 the
00:20:21.840 government
00:20:24.360 of Canada
00:20:25.080 has allowed
00:20:26.100 this to
00:20:27.620 go through
00:20:28.800 the three
00:20:29.440 levels of
00:20:30.160 government.
00:20:30.820 So the
00:20:31.800 local
00:20:32.540 community
00:20:33.200 governments
00:20:34.120 are actually
00:20:35.240 infested with
00:20:36.340 this
00:20:36.740 sustainable
00:20:37.700 development
00:20:38.560 mandate.
00:20:40.060 So when,
00:20:42.060 for instance,
00:20:42.620 we were
00:20:42.920 complaining to
00:20:43.700 the federal
00:20:44.160 government
00:20:44.680 about the
00:20:45.300 Green Energy
00:20:45.800 Act in
00:20:46.340 Ontario,
00:20:47.080 they denied
00:20:47.960 having anything
00:20:48.720 to do with
00:20:49.400 it.
00:20:49.780 And yet,
00:20:51.120 the person
00:20:51.820 who is
00:20:52.540 the,
00:20:53.540 I don't know,
00:20:55.660 I'm going to
00:20:55.940 say,
00:20:56.160 the Speaker
00:20:56.640 of the
00:20:57.040 House is
00:20:58.860 automatically
00:20:59.800 the chair
00:21:00.840 of the
00:21:02.580 implementation
00:21:04.560 of these
00:21:07.360 UN
00:21:08.140 sustainable
00:21:09.020 development
00:21:10.120 programs
00:21:11.180 through the
00:21:12.260 three levels
00:21:13.180 of local,
00:21:14.900 municipal,
00:21:15.860 provincial,
00:21:16.160 and federal
00:21:16.980 government.
00:21:18.260 So they
00:21:19.220 were actually
00:21:20.500 subsidizing
00:21:21.860 electricity
00:21:22.860 produced by
00:21:23.700 wind turbines,
00:21:24.560 even as
00:21:26.460 they were
00:21:26.760 denying
00:21:27.200 that they
00:21:27.940 had anything
00:21:28.460 to do
00:21:28.940 with,
00:21:29.400 because
00:21:29.640 electricity
00:21:31.340 is a
00:21:31.920 provincial
00:21:32.220 issue,
00:21:32.860 whereas
00:21:33.280 energy
00:21:35.380 as such
00:21:36.240 is a
00:21:37.160 federal
00:21:37.460 issue.
00:21:38.000 So they
00:21:38.300 were
00:21:38.720 pretending
00:21:40.600 that they
00:21:41.280 didn't have
00:21:42.100 this
00:21:42.780 agency
00:21:44.620 within
00:21:45.140 them.
00:21:47.180 Now,
00:21:48.140 your e-petition,
00:21:49.080 if people want
00:21:49.560 to find it,
00:21:50.100 it's e-petition
00:21:51.240 1906.
00:21:52.520 Now,
00:21:52.840 we're recording
00:21:53.360 this Tuesday
00:21:54.020 afternoon,
00:21:55.320 but it
00:21:55.720 will go
00:21:56.020 to air
00:21:56.420 Wednesday
00:21:57.200 night,
00:21:57.640 and I
00:21:57.820 just
00:21:58.080 checked
00:21:58.440 on your
00:21:58.800 petition,
00:21:59.360 and it's
00:21:59.620 doing quite
00:22:00.140 well.
00:22:00.500 It's at
00:22:00.840 9,714
00:22:04.140 signatories.
00:22:06.300 I've got
00:22:07.220 1,844
00:22:09.160 from Alberta
00:22:09.960 that doesn't
00:22:10.500 surprise me
00:22:11.980 at all,
00:22:12.400 the most
00:22:12.940 conservative
00:22:14.140 province in
00:22:15.460 confederation
00:22:16.340 despite our
00:22:17.440 government.
00:22:17.940 Ontario,
00:22:20.200 3,084
00:22:22.880 in Ontario.
00:22:25.480 Correct me
00:22:26.200 if I'm
00:22:26.540 wrong,
00:22:27.140 but that
00:22:27.400 probably has
00:22:28.060 a lot to
00:22:28.580 do with
00:22:28.860 the fact
00:22:29.360 that Ontario
00:22:30.760 is really
00:22:31.340 footing the
00:22:32.040 bill for
00:22:33.000 much of
00:22:33.460 this mass
00:22:34.060 migration
00:22:34.740 across our
00:22:35.560 southern border.
00:22:37.640 And Quebec,
00:22:38.860 this, on
00:22:39.940 some level,
00:22:40.940 it should
00:22:41.480 surprise me,
00:22:42.240 but looking
00:22:42.820 a little
00:22:43.100 deeper, it
00:22:43.600 doesn't.
00:22:43.940 Quebec is
00:22:44.840 the next
00:22:45.320 highest with
00:22:46.440 2,195
00:22:48.620 signatories,
00:22:49.400 and I think
00:22:49.760 it's because
00:22:50.360 Quebecers
00:22:51.280 really cherish
00:22:52.580 their distinct
00:22:54.140 culture, and
00:22:55.720 I believe they
00:22:56.520 feel as
00:22:57.160 though mass
00:22:59.680 migration,
00:23:00.580 unfettered
00:23:01.940 migration that
00:23:03.840 isn't based
00:23:04.580 on merit or
00:23:05.860 need, damages
00:23:07.640 their distinct
00:23:08.540 culture.
00:23:09.100 What do you
00:23:09.360 think?
00:23:10.720 Oh, yes.
00:23:12.060 Well, you
00:23:13.640 know,
00:23:13.940 there are
00:23:14.720 practical people
00:23:15.660 as well.
00:23:16.480 They actually
00:23:17.120 originate in
00:23:18.020 the province
00:23:18.640 of Quebec,
00:23:19.540 and that
00:23:22.440 didn't surprise
00:23:23.160 me at all.
00:23:24.240 But I just
00:23:25.980 wanted to bring
00:23:26.600 your attention
00:23:27.180 to something
00:23:27.780 about this
00:23:28.440 petition as
00:23:29.180 it's posted
00:23:29.840 by the
00:23:30.460 government of
00:23:31.300 Canada.
00:23:32.460 It's E-1906,
00:23:36.980 well, I always
00:23:37.620 say 06,
00:23:38.500 but 1906,
00:23:41.000 and it's
00:23:42.220 under the
00:23:42.800 category of
00:23:44.100 immigration.
00:23:45.400 Great.
00:23:46.560 Yes.
00:23:47.560 Great.
00:23:47.860 You see, you
00:23:49.400 have to watch
00:23:52.100 their abusive
00:23:52.900 language because
00:23:54.740 it just pervades
00:23:56.680 the whole
00:23:57.380 discussion.
00:23:58.760 And as far
00:23:59.480 as I'm
00:23:59.840 concerned, the
00:24:00.440 best thing
00:24:00.900 that you
00:24:01.220 can do
00:24:01.800 with the
00:24:02.300 UN or
00:24:03.020 any of
00:24:03.420 these types
00:24:04.400 of, you
00:24:04.960 know, when
00:24:05.220 you're having
00:24:06.320 one of
00:24:07.040 their never
00:24:08.180 ending public
00:24:09.200 consultations,
00:24:10.600 insist they
00:24:11.700 define their
00:24:12.680 terms.
00:24:13.600 Because as you
00:24:14.260 pointed out,
00:24:15.400 it's all just
00:24:16.480 mushy, it
00:24:18.300 could mean
00:24:18.780 this, it
00:24:19.300 could mean
00:24:19.780 that.
00:24:20.940 And as far
00:24:22.520 as we're
00:24:22.880 concerned, in
00:24:23.880 our experience
00:24:25.400 with sustainable
00:24:26.400 development, it
00:24:27.540 always means a
00:24:28.940 curtailment of
00:24:29.740 your rights.
00:24:31.260 Yes.
00:24:32.320 Now, I
00:24:33.140 wanted to ask
00:24:34.440 you how you
00:24:36.420 came to have
00:24:37.560 your petition
00:24:39.800 sponsored by
00:24:42.360 a renegade
00:24:44.680 MP Maxime
00:24:45.880 Bernier.
00:24:46.180 Well, I
00:24:49.120 guess we're
00:24:49.540 all renegades
00:24:50.420 at heart.
00:24:52.680 We put the
00:24:53.740 petition up,
00:24:55.000 we had sort
00:24:55.720 of discussed
00:24:57.160 it and
00:24:57.980 thought it
00:24:58.960 was a good
00:24:59.420 idea, and
00:25:00.380 we worded
00:25:01.100 very carefully
00:25:01.880 to make
00:25:04.800 sure that
00:25:05.440 there wasn't
00:25:05.980 any gratuitous
00:25:07.040 name calling,
00:25:08.460 and that we
00:25:10.080 have said
00:25:10.980 that limited
00:25:13.920 merit-based
00:25:15.220 immigration is
00:25:16.160 essential for
00:25:19.160 the well-being
00:25:21.420 and protection
00:25:22.900 of rights of
00:25:23.780 the Canadian
00:25:24.640 citizens.
00:25:26.320 And we
00:25:27.120 have, you
00:25:29.420 know, there
00:25:30.380 are Conservative
00:25:32.900 Party people,
00:25:35.120 Michelle
00:25:35.920 Rampell, for
00:25:36.700 instance, who
00:25:37.280 have been
00:25:37.840 outspoken on
00:25:38.900 immigration, and
00:25:40.640 we put it out
00:25:42.140 on Twitter
00:25:42.840 because it was
00:25:43.740 sitting there
00:25:44.500 waiting for a
00:25:45.700 sponsor for two
00:25:46.900 days on the
00:25:49.080 petition of
00:25:49.740 Government of
00:25:50.460 Canada
00:25:50.700 petition's
00:25:51.440 website, and
00:25:54.080 people were
00:25:54.640 retweeting it to
00:25:56.180 their own
00:25:57.000 MPs, to
00:25:58.520 high-profile
00:25:59.980 MPs of every
00:26:01.460 stripe, and
00:26:03.380 finally, after two
00:26:04.480 days, Maxime
00:26:05.940 Bernier step
00:26:06.680 forward and put
00:26:07.400 his name on
00:26:08.080 it.
00:26:08.780 So we are
00:26:10.080 very grateful.
00:26:11.880 And as a
00:26:13.080 former CPC
00:26:14.000 policy chair, I
00:26:15.860 tried to bring
00:26:17.040 issues like this
00:26:18.200 forward and was
00:26:20.000 pretty much
00:26:20.660 stonewall.
00:26:22.140 So I always
00:26:23.440 say that all
00:26:25.560 Canadians owe
00:26:26.680 Maxime Bernier a
00:26:28.300 debt of gratitude
00:26:29.040 for forcing the
00:26:32.960 politicians to
00:26:34.920 address this
00:26:35.720 issue and give
00:26:37.280 Canadians a
00:26:38.360 voice.
00:26:39.140 You know, and I
00:26:40.000 think another
00:26:40.740 point is that the
00:26:41.980 majority of
00:26:42.680 Canadians do
00:26:43.700 want to see a
00:26:45.140 control on
00:26:46.400 immigration, and
00:26:47.480 I think Canada's
00:26:49.760 mainstream parties
00:26:50.660 are really out of
00:26:51.900 step with
00:26:53.480 mainstream dinner
00:26:54.900 table Canadian
00:26:56.140 discussions when
00:26:57.080 they just want
00:26:57.860 it to be a
00:26:58.920 free-for-all.
00:27:00.660 Yes.
00:27:01.820 Yes.
00:27:02.440 And the more
00:27:04.120 that Canadians
00:27:05.280 see what is
00:27:06.200 happening on
00:27:07.020 the U.S.
00:27:07.860 border or
00:27:08.780 heading for
00:27:09.820 the U.S.
00:27:10.620 border, the
00:27:12.420 more concerned
00:27:13.700 they get about
00:27:15.740 unbridled
00:27:17.020 migration.
00:27:18.760 This is not
00:27:19.680 what we signed
00:27:20.940 on for, as
00:27:21.800 it were.
00:27:22.780 We've always
00:27:23.840 had and
00:27:25.460 were willing,
00:27:28.500 in fact,
00:27:29.240 enthusiastic,
00:27:30.220 because the
00:27:31.760 sponsored
00:27:32.980 immigration
00:27:33.740 programs, if
00:27:35.360 you're looking
00:27:35.740 for data, are
00:27:37.900 the ones that
00:27:38.800 have the
00:27:39.400 greatest success
00:27:40.460 rate.
00:27:41.540 So, people,
00:27:42.840 private citizens
00:27:44.360 and groups
00:27:45.960 have sponsored
00:27:47.940 immigrants,
00:27:48.960 willingly,
00:27:50.040 happily,
00:27:51.100 enthusiastically.
00:27:52.040 we have
00:27:53.880 brought people
00:27:54.720 to this
00:27:55.420 country without
00:27:56.720 government
00:27:58.080 dictating it,
00:28:00.160 and, frankly,
00:28:02.720 the government
00:28:03.360 should just
00:28:04.140 stay out of
00:28:05.140 it.
00:28:05.820 Now, their
00:28:06.820 job is to
00:28:08.000 defend our
00:28:09.120 nation and
00:28:10.540 our well-being.
00:28:11.880 Now, that's
00:28:12.700 one thing I want
00:28:13.220 to ask you,
00:28:13.740 because you
00:28:14.380 are going to
00:28:15.000 get that as
00:28:16.480 a criticism,
00:28:17.140 that you are
00:28:18.320 a bigot,
00:28:20.320 that you're
00:28:20.840 anti any
00:28:22.140 number of
00:28:22.800 things,
00:28:23.180 probably
00:28:23.560 Islamophobic,
00:28:24.760 that you're
00:28:25.620 against
00:28:26.220 immigration.
00:28:27.140 But I get
00:28:27.460 a sense from
00:28:29.020 you that
00:28:29.320 that is
00:28:29.880 not the
00:28:30.760 case.
00:28:32.280 No, we
00:28:32.880 write in
00:28:34.780 the, you
00:28:35.220 know, of
00:28:36.120 course, there
00:28:36.760 is a problem
00:28:37.320 with reading
00:28:37.820 comprehension
00:28:38.660 amongst some
00:28:39.700 people.
00:28:40.520 However, the
00:28:41.600 second
00:28:42.300 statement
00:28:43.640 within
00:28:44.380 that
00:28:45.480 petition
00:28:46.480 insists
00:28:48.960 that
00:28:49.800 I was
00:28:54.680 going to
00:28:54.960 try and
00:28:55.480 say it
00:28:56.340 exactly as
00:28:57.200 is written,
00:28:57.960 but it
00:28:58.240 escapes me
00:28:58.900 at the
00:28:59.180 moment.
00:29:01.840 The
00:29:02.060 yes,
00:29:04.080 the
00:29:04.720 limited
00:29:06.160 and merit
00:29:07.240 based
00:29:07.960 immigration,
00:29:10.180 not
00:29:10.840 migration,
00:29:11.780 immigration
00:29:12.260 is essential
00:29:13.800 to our
00:29:15.420 well-being
00:29:17.200 and
00:29:18.120 rights.
00:29:20.080 It's
00:29:20.840 essential.
00:29:21.820 We
00:29:21.940 acknowledge
00:29:23.160 that, we
00:29:23.600 fully
00:29:23.920 acknowledge
00:29:24.460 that, and
00:29:25.020 we embrace
00:29:25.640 it.
00:29:26.320 And when
00:29:26.720 we are
00:29:27.040 talking about
00:29:27.840 Canadians,
00:29:28.560 there's no
00:29:29.260 color, no
00:29:30.320 religion, no
00:29:31.680 nothing.
00:29:32.520 It's
00:29:33.020 Canadians.
00:29:34.980 And we
00:29:35.880 want all
00:29:37.580 Canadians to
00:29:38.400 be protected
00:29:39.060 by the
00:29:39.900 federal
00:29:40.200 government.
00:29:40.640 Well, and
00:29:41.780 I think it
00:29:44.500 does legal
00:29:45.940 immigrants to
00:29:46.620 this country
00:29:47.100 no favors
00:29:47.800 when you
00:29:48.700 allow mass
00:29:50.500 migration and
00:29:51.400 queue
00:29:51.640 jumping to
00:29:53.020 drive the
00:29:55.140 wages down
00:29:56.020 for everybody
00:29:56.780 else.
00:29:58.620 Ah, well,
00:30:00.160 and speaking
00:30:01.320 just right
00:30:02.400 off the bat
00:30:02.940 on queue
00:30:04.040 jumping, we
00:30:05.300 have some
00:30:06.180 immigrants here
00:30:07.700 in this area
00:30:09.420 who spent
00:30:11.100 thousands upon
00:30:12.400 thousands of
00:30:13.160 dollars, and
00:30:13.900 it has taken
00:30:14.660 years of
00:30:15.960 their lives
00:30:17.100 to become
00:30:19.360 Canadian
00:30:19.880 citizens.
00:30:21.480 In some
00:30:22.080 cases, they
00:30:22.680 aren't even
00:30:23.340 Canadian
00:30:23.980 citizens yet,
00:30:25.540 but they
00:30:26.020 have already
00:30:27.700 invested
00:30:28.360 massively to
00:30:29.680 come to
00:30:30.080 this country.
00:30:30.780 And some
00:30:31.880 of them
00:30:32.300 have come
00:30:32.980 as refugees
00:30:33.960 from places
00:30:35.940 which are
00:30:37.160 now sending
00:30:38.420 migrants all
00:30:40.140 over the
00:30:40.580 world.
00:30:41.640 And so
00:30:42.100 we're doing,
00:30:44.520 yes, a huge
00:30:45.440 disservice to
00:30:46.220 the people who
00:30:47.000 have followed
00:30:47.700 the rules,
00:30:48.700 have paid
00:30:49.180 the money,
00:30:50.300 are contributing
00:30:51.640 already to
00:30:52.360 Canada, and
00:30:54.160 we're betraying
00:30:56.140 the trust of
00:30:57.320 people who
00:30:58.640 came here for
00:30:59.740 refuge.
00:31:00.780 for safe
00:31:01.520 haven, because
00:31:03.960 we will
00:31:05.700 demand they
00:31:06.920 tolerate their
00:31:08.500 enemy, their
00:31:09.820 victimizer, their
00:31:11.760 abuser, as
00:31:13.620 their neighbor.
00:31:15.080 You know, I
00:31:15.880 think that's a
00:31:16.340 great spot to
00:31:17.880 leave this
00:31:18.640 interview.
00:31:19.180 Catherine, I
00:31:19.740 want to thank
00:31:20.100 you so much
00:31:20.600 for your
00:31:21.640 time to
00:31:23.520 come on the
00:31:23.880 show today,
00:31:24.280 your dedication
00:31:25.020 to put this
00:31:25.700 out, your
00:31:26.360 patience with
00:31:27.320 my Skype
00:31:27.840 connection, and
00:31:29.600 I want to
00:31:30.100 direct everybody
00:31:30.760 who stands
00:31:31.920 against the
00:31:32.520 global compact
00:31:33.220 on migration,
00:31:33.940 and everybody
00:31:35.520 who believes
00:31:36.780 that Canadians
00:31:37.480 should have the
00:31:38.320 right to
00:31:38.900 determine who
00:31:39.420 comes into
00:31:39.840 their country
00:31:40.300 and not the
00:31:40.860 United Nations,
00:31:41.560 I want to
00:31:42.360 direct them to
00:31:43.080 the Our
00:31:43.680 Commons website,
00:31:45.300 that's the
00:31:45.580 federal government
00:31:46.120 website,
00:31:46.720 ourcommons.ca,
00:31:48.320 and it is
00:31:49.160 petition 1906.
00:31:52.180 Last word goes
00:31:52.900 to you, Catherine.
00:31:53.500 Well, I
00:31:55.780 thank you very
00:31:56.480 much, I
00:31:58.180 really appreciate
00:31:58.960 it, you're
00:31:59.480 giving people
00:32:00.580 heads up that
00:32:02.220 there is this
00:32:02.940 opportunity, and
00:32:04.920 we're all
00:32:06.380 rebel fans,
00:32:07.540 anyway.
00:32:10.340 Thank you very
00:32:11.220 much.
00:32:11.840 Thanks, Catherine.
00:32:12.480 And thanks to
00:32:14.360 our Patriot
00:32:15.260 Canadians who
00:32:16.600 are helping.
00:32:17.780 Great, thank you
00:32:18.800 so much.
00:32:32.100 The UN
00:32:33.340 Compact on
00:32:34.820 Migration is
00:32:35.920 basically a
00:32:37.000 document that
00:32:38.080 puts Justin
00:32:38.900 Trudeau's famous
00:32:39.860 welcome to
00:32:40.940 Canada tweet
00:32:41.840 into practice.
00:32:43.840 This latest
00:32:44.620 UN agreement
00:32:45.500 dissolves Canada's
00:32:46.960 borders at a
00:32:48.400 time when our
00:32:49.160 UN friends are
00:32:49.980 taking more
00:32:50.700 steps to
00:32:51.700 solidify their
00:32:52.760 own, and the
00:32:53.820 Liberals are
00:32:54.480 rushing headlong
00:32:55.540 into signing
00:32:56.580 this agreement.
00:32:57.800 Immigration
00:32:58.300 Minister Ahmed
00:32:59.640 Hossein and
00:33:00.600 Marie-Claude
00:33:01.240 Bibaud, the
00:33:01.900 Minister of
00:33:02.560 International
00:33:03.180 Development,
00:33:04.600 co-authored an
00:33:05.700 op-ed in
00:33:06.460 Maclean's magazine,
00:33:07.980 along with a
00:33:08.700 representative for
00:33:09.520 the UN High
00:33:10.360 Commissioner for
00:33:11.520 Refugees.
00:33:12.760 That op-ed
00:33:13.980 admits that
00:33:14.920 Canada was
00:33:16.080 instrumental in
00:33:17.540 drafting the
00:33:18.260 compact on
00:33:18.900 refugees that
00:33:19.840 spawned the
00:33:20.480 compact on
00:33:21.720 migrants.
00:33:22.760 And unless
00:33:23.560 Canadians make
00:33:24.560 their voices
00:33:25.100 heard, Justin
00:33:26.320 Trudeau will
00:33:27.460 sign this
00:33:28.140 document next
00:33:29.540 month.
00:33:30.560 And we know
00:33:31.260 polls show
00:33:32.580 Canadians are
00:33:33.280 not in favour
00:33:34.460 of ever-increasing
00:33:35.660 levels of
00:33:36.380 immigration to
00:33:37.780 Canada.
00:33:38.780 Maxime Bernier is
00:33:40.180 apparently the
00:33:40.940 one politician who
00:33:42.140 recognises that
00:33:43.680 obvious fact.
00:33:44.840 How long until
00:33:45.500 the rest of
00:33:46.060 the official
00:33:46.880 Conservatives in
00:33:48.360 Ottawa get
00:33:49.180 on board with
00:33:49.840 what Canadians
00:33:50.600 actually want
00:33:52.160 for Canada.
00:33:53.840 Well, everybody,
00:33:54.620 that's the show
00:33:55.160 for tonight.
00:33:55.980 Thank you so
00:33:56.600 much for tuning
00:33:57.320 in.
00:33:57.600 I'll see everybody
00:33:58.180 back here in the
00:33:58.920 same time, in the
00:34:00.160 same place next
00:34:00.920 week.
00:34:01.460 And remember,
00:34:02.680 don't let the
00:34:03.460 government tell
00:34:04.080 you that you've
00:34:04.680 had too much to
00:34:05.640 think.
00:34:05.920 you're
00:34:09.100 about to
00:34:23.460 go.
00:34:25.020 Thank you.
