00:00:00.000 Tonight, Justin Trudeau is going to jack up our immigration rates to the highest level in history
00:00:05.360 with a special emphasis on Somalia. Why? It's November 1st and this is The Ezra Levant Show.
00:00:17.640 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:00:21.420 There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer.
00:00:25.160 You come here once a year with a sign and you feel morally superior.
00:00:28.140 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:00:38.840 90% of Justin Trudeau's Syrians are still unemployed after three years here.
00:00:44.580 Most don't even speak fluent English or French.
00:00:47.580 The good news is that Syria's civil war is over now and it's safe for Syrian migrants to come home.
00:00:53.540 But instead of sending them back home, Trudeau is set to bring over even more migrants, but this time he's focusing on Somalia.
00:01:02.500 Here's the big headline.
00:01:04.300 Canada to increase annual immigration admissions to 350,000 by 2021.
00:01:12.720 It's a shocking rise and it's against the will of Canadians from every province, from every political stripe, from every background.
00:01:19.660 Now, most Canadian immigrants don't even want jacked up immigration.
00:01:24.780 Here, take a look at this poll.
00:01:25.960 This is from Angus Reid.
00:01:27.400 This was in the end of August, so it's just a couple months old.
00:01:31.100 You see that dark blue line there?
00:01:32.600 Only 6% of Canadians want immigration levels increased.
00:01:37.320 Just 6%.
00:01:38.200 That's barely within the margin of error of the poll.
00:01:41.780 I don't think the number has ever been so tiny.
00:01:46.700 Compare that to the number of Canadians who positively want immigration levels cut.
00:01:51.340 That's that red number.
00:01:54.060 49%.
00:01:54.580 I'm not sure if it's ever been that high in recent history.
00:01:58.460 People feel burned.
00:02:00.420 That's why.
00:02:00.880 Not just from the terrorism and the crime.
00:02:03.380 I mean, like Ibrahim Ali, one of Trudeau's Syrians accused of raping and murdering a teenage girl in Burnaby.
00:02:10.920 Or the countless sexual assault charges and other violence from people Trudeau has favored in recent years.
00:02:16.940 But the economic burdens, too.
00:02:19.440 90% of the Trudeau Syrians still don't have a job.
00:02:21.700 Most don't speak French or English.
00:02:23.220 It's just not working.
00:02:25.180 But look at the CBC headline here.
00:02:28.760 The sub-headline, rather.
00:02:31.160 Most newcomers will address skills shortages and gaps in the labor market.
00:02:36.600 Yeah, maybe.
00:02:38.140 But I think one of the problems is that we're bringing in a cheap, almost an indentured labor class.
00:02:45.100 Like the U.S. does with its illegal migrants from Mexico.
00:02:48.280 We do it legally, I guess.
00:02:50.620 We don't hire Canadians anymore for minimum wage jobs.
00:02:54.120 We hire temporary foreign workers.
00:02:56.820 I don't get it.
00:02:57.820 Sometimes it seems crazy to me.
00:02:59.060 Did you see this story?
00:03:00.740 Just the other day.
00:03:02.060 D.C. Human Rights Tribunal finds resort owner schemed to replace Caucasian workers.
00:03:08.940 In the sub-headline there,
00:03:10.340 Kinwa Chan ordered to pay seven former employees of Spruce Hill Resort a total of $173,000 for racial discrimination.
00:03:17.260 So there's this spa.
00:03:18.280 In the heart of British Columbia, they fired all their white, that is, their born-in-Canada workers,
00:03:25.620 and replaced them all with ethnic Chinese workers, migrants.
00:03:29.740 Well, let me quote from the Human Rights Commission here.
00:03:34.120 I find that Mr. Chan said words to the effect,
00:03:36.960 Chinese workers are better and cheaper than white workers,
00:03:39.440 and Chinese workers do not have to be paid holiday pay or overtime, unquote.
00:03:44.680 Now, I'm no fan of Human Rights Commissions.
00:03:46.220 I think that's actually a labor law issue, not a human rights issue.
00:03:50.860 I think there is racism there, of course.
00:03:52.900 But yeah, I'm not sure of bringing in extremely cheap foreign laborers
00:03:58.560 who don't abide by things like overtime pay or holiday pay or probably health and safety either.
00:04:05.360 I don't think that's really a strong economic policy,
00:04:07.920 other than if you want cheap labor to drive down wages
00:04:12.380 and want lots of people to drive up the price of housing.
00:04:16.420 I'm not sure how that's a big win for ordinary Canadians, though,
00:04:18.860 compared to, you know, Trump's policy of doing the opposite,
00:04:22.380 reviving the industrial base with six-figure high-skilled jobs like steel.
00:04:27.240 But back to the story about the new 350,000 people a year immigration plan.
00:04:31.460 Almost a third of them won't even have any skills.
00:04:34.120 Not even the kinds of skills you need to work at a fast food restaurant,
00:04:38.440 like knowing how to speak English or French,
00:04:41.400 or knowing high school math so you give the right change.
00:04:43.920 Here, let me quote from the story, again, from the state broadcaster here.
00:04:47.200 Canada does plan to gradually increase the number of refugees it will accept
00:04:53.040 under its humanitarian and family reunification and sponsorship programs
00:04:56.560 from 43,000 to reach 51,700 by 2021.
00:05:02.900 I'll read a little bit more.
00:05:03.920 Nevertheless, the lion's share of the new admissions
00:05:06.520 under Canada's immigration levels plan,
00:05:08.880 72% will be allocated to economic programs in 2021.
00:05:12.560 Hassan says he acknowledges that more must be done
00:05:15.360 to help refugees around the world
00:05:16.980 and says he fights every single day
00:05:19.900 to increase the number of refugees Canada admits.
00:05:25.520 Really?
00:05:27.220 So right off the top, their plan itself says
00:05:29.580 28% of these immigrants won't have economic skills.
00:05:33.500 They'll be migrants, maybe refugees,
00:05:35.240 and Hassan fights every day to jack up that number.
00:05:39.460 Why?
00:05:40.860 The Syrian civil war's over.
00:05:43.140 People are going home now.
00:05:44.180 Was this really ever about helping people,
00:05:47.280 or was it about something else?
00:05:49.260 Here's a weird story in the globe.
00:05:52.640 UN asks Canada to resettle more refugees displaced in Horn of Africa.
00:05:57.800 Let me read a little bit from the story.
00:05:59.200 The United Nations Refugee Agency is asking Canada
00:06:01.840 to resettle more refugees from the Horn of Africa,
00:06:04.980 emphasizing the needs of particularly vulnerable Somalis
00:06:08.360 displaced by a decades-long conflict in the war-torn country.
00:06:13.260 Now, I get it.
00:06:15.360 Ahmed Hassan himself is Somali.
00:06:17.860 He wants to bring in his fellow Somalis.
00:06:20.020 But what about Canada's interests?
00:06:23.480 There are 15 people still in Somalia.
00:06:26.480 We can't take them all.
00:06:28.940 What would that do?
00:06:29.840 How would that help?
00:06:30.440 How's that going to stop a 20-year civil war?
00:06:33.420 It's a failed state.
00:06:34.520 Somali immigrants to Canada
00:06:35.660 have a very poor track record of integration
00:06:38.160 and a troubling tendency towards crime and terrorism.
00:06:41.560 Sorry to say it.
00:06:42.220 That's statistics.
00:06:43.140 Somali terrorists.
00:06:43.880 Take a look at this guy.
00:06:44.700 Boom.
00:06:45.720 Somali terrorist.
00:06:46.580 Mohamed Hirsi.
00:06:47.440 Boom.
00:06:48.420 Next.
00:06:48.860 Somali terrorist.
00:06:51.920 From Edmonton there.
00:06:53.040 He's the guy who went on the rampage.
00:06:54.840 Next one.
00:06:55.900 Somali terrorist.
00:06:56.720 This guy was acquitted.
00:06:58.160 He walked into Canadian Forces Recruitment Center,
00:07:00.220 stabbed up the joint,
00:07:01.000 but he was acquitted for being mentally ill.
00:07:02.760 Yeah, there's a lot of terrorists
00:07:03.960 and a lot of mental illness coming from Somalia.
00:07:06.820 Disproportionate, I bet.
00:07:07.840 I think it's probably why the United States
00:07:09.860 put Somalia on the list of the seven countries
00:07:13.280 in the world from which it is banning migration
00:07:16.640 because of terrorism.
00:07:19.920 Now, I know that, of course,
00:07:21.020 not every Somali is a terrorist,
00:07:22.560 and that's great,
00:07:24.180 but Justin Trudeau is not really the best
00:07:26.260 at vetting migrants, now is he?
00:07:28.640 And if we're going to supersize our migration,
00:07:31.060 something that, as I showed you,
00:07:32.120 only 6% of Canadians want to do,
00:07:34.800 why are we heavying up
00:07:36.200 on the most dangerous places in the world?
00:07:38.820 That's nuts.
00:07:40.820 How about we focus on the tens of thousands of foreigners
00:07:43.320 who already simply walked across the border
00:07:46.420 from New York State illegally
00:07:47.680 and now form a 10-year backlog
00:07:51.360 in our immigration and refugee processing?
00:07:53.540 How mad is it to rush into bringing in more
00:07:56.160 without dealing with the existing backlog?
00:07:59.440 I see in the papers today
00:08:00.600 that Ralph Goodale
00:08:01.400 is telling the Border Services Agency
00:08:04.400 to speed up their bogus refugee removals.
00:08:09.660 That's what we call a fib, people.
00:08:12.860 It's not up to the Border Services Agency
00:08:14.740 to remove folks who haven't yet had their hearing.
00:08:18.560 It's up to them to keep up the bogus refugees
00:08:20.440 in the first place.
00:08:22.140 That's true.
00:08:22.760 But once they're in,
00:08:26.140 they have the right,
00:08:27.060 according to Goodale and Trudeau,
00:08:28.800 to have a full hearing
00:08:30.100 while they get to stick around in Canada
00:08:32.100 and go anywhere they like.
00:08:33.180 So if Goodale actually wanted to solve the problem,
00:08:36.100 he'd put up a fence at the border.
00:08:37.960 He would order police to stop migrants
00:08:39.580 from just walking across illegally.
00:08:42.000 Look, the sign at the border crossing
00:08:44.240 says it's illegal.
00:08:45.760 Do you see that?
00:08:46.480 Stop.
00:08:47.320 It is illegal to cross the border here
00:08:50.120 or any other place other than a port of entry.
00:08:52.280 You will be arrested and detained if you cross here.
00:08:55.020 Yeah, and then you'll be set free.
00:08:56.800 It's called catch and release.
00:08:57.880 Goodale and Trudeau have specifically set up welcome tents.
00:09:02.140 Don't blame it on the border police.
00:09:05.640 I want to read a little story from La Presse,
00:09:08.300 the French-language paper in Montreal,
00:09:10.420 showing, I won't translate it into French,
00:09:12.740 I just wanted to show you it's here.
00:09:15.060 Yeah, you and I as taxpayers have spent more than,
00:09:18.480 almost $997,000, almost a million dollars
00:09:22.600 on welcome meals, sort of gift baskets, snacks,
00:09:28.180 at the border crossing alone.
00:09:29.460 A million bucks in snacks.
00:09:34.640 Yeah, so, yeah, don't pretend that the problem
00:09:36.460 is with the border guards.
00:09:38.720 It's with their bosses.
00:09:40.320 You, Ralph Goodale and Justin Trudeau,
00:09:42.200 who order the border guards to be concierges
00:09:44.640 and waiters.
00:09:47.140 Like a Walmart greeter
00:09:48.500 to every lawbreaker who just walks across.
00:09:51.040 I believe that Trudeau and Goodale
00:09:53.580 want the lawbreaking to stop.
00:09:54.920 The moment Trudeau deletes that tweet he made
00:09:57.300 a year and a half ago,
00:09:58.420 welcoming every lawbreaker who can make it to our border.
00:10:01.760 And you see, that's the sad part.
00:10:03.340 I like immigration if it's lawful,
00:10:06.760 if it's orderly,
00:10:08.560 if it's manageable, if it's absorbable,
00:10:11.000 if it's in the best interest of Canada,
00:10:12.640 and frankly, the best interest of the migrants, too.
00:10:14.800 What favors are you doing
00:10:15.840 to any of those Syrians
00:10:16.660 who are still alienated here?
00:10:18.480 Learn English and French.
00:10:20.120 Come with a skill.
00:10:21.100 Love Canada.
00:10:22.080 Prove it.
00:10:23.320 Learn our customs and our values.
00:10:24.780 Don't beat women.
00:10:25.680 Don't become a terrorist.
00:10:28.380 Become an integrated part of our country.
00:10:30.140 Who could be against that?
00:10:31.160 Well, actually, Trudeau is, isn't he?
00:10:33.120 His Syrian fiasco is a case in point.
00:10:35.000 He didn't vet anyone.
00:10:36.540 And now that it's safe back in Syria,
00:10:38.520 he insists they stay
00:10:39.560 as part of a political, ideological,
00:10:41.360 religious campaign he's on.
00:10:43.020 Canadians don't want that.
00:10:44.040 And they know that Ahmed Husson
00:10:46.480 and Justin Trudeau
00:10:47.300 have a collateral purpose.
00:10:50.220 And every single day,
00:10:51.140 we allow the lawlessness
00:10:52.000 at our borders to continue.
00:10:53.360 And then reward it
00:10:54.520 by raising our quotas.
00:10:57.040 Who does that?
00:10:58.260 Who gets taken advantage of
00:10:59.740 and says, yeah, we'll sign up
00:11:00.960 for an extra helping of that?
00:11:03.440 Well, it's just for the proof
00:11:04.440 that Trudeau and Husson
00:11:05.160 are not doing what's best for Canada.
00:11:07.320 It's why only 6% of Canadians
00:11:09.680 support Trudeau's new move.
00:11:10.840 But to me,
00:11:11.600 the real question is,
00:11:14.920 why hasn't Andrew Scheer
00:11:15.920 or the Conservatives
00:11:16.620 taken issue
00:11:17.720 with this new jump
00:11:18.780 in immigration numbers?
00:11:22.500 They haven't, have they?
00:11:24.480 They talk about an orderly border.
00:11:26.860 Sure.
00:11:27.820 They talk about the rule of law.
00:11:29.320 Yeah, thanks.
00:11:29.960 Thanks, guys.
00:11:31.080 But they haven't set a peep
00:11:33.220 against the 350,000 number,
00:11:37.120 have they?
00:11:37.620 They haven't set a peep
00:11:39.040 against the obsession
00:11:41.480 with bringing in people
00:11:43.140 from Syria and Somalia
00:11:44.700 and other Muslim countries.
00:11:46.380 They have not said
00:11:47.760 a word about that.
00:11:51.740 Why not?
00:11:54.440 Stay with us for more.
00:11:55.500 Mr. Speaker,
00:12:12.420 there were disturbing reports
00:12:13.820 this weekend
00:12:14.340 that Stats Canada
00:12:15.360 has informed banks
00:12:16.520 and credit card companies
00:12:17.600 that it expects them
00:12:18.980 to hand over
00:12:19.820 personal financial data
00:12:21.140 of at least half a million Canadians
00:12:22.760 without their knowledge
00:12:23.820 or consent.
00:12:24.600 Even worse,
00:12:25.680 banks won't be allowed
00:12:26.580 to inform their customers
00:12:27.840 that the government
00:12:28.560 is following
00:12:29.420 every single one
00:12:30.360 of their transactions.
00:12:31.840 With a long history
00:12:32.840 of government privacy breaches,
00:12:34.640 Canadians are rightly worried.
00:12:36.580 Why are the Liberals
00:12:37.340 collecting the personal data
00:12:38.680 of Canadians
00:12:39.420 without telling them?
00:12:41.820 Our government is ensuring
00:12:45.840 that the personal data
00:12:46.940 of Canadians
00:12:47.560 are protected.
00:12:49.020 Statistics Canada
00:12:49.880 will use the anonymized data
00:12:51.980 for statistical purposes only.
00:12:54.240 No personal information
00:12:55.820 will be made public.
00:12:57.540 I understand Statistics Canada
00:12:58.980 is actively engaged
00:13:00.660 with the Privacy Commissioner's office
00:13:02.500 on this project
00:13:03.780 and is working with them
00:13:05.320 to ensure Canadians'
00:13:06.640 banking information
00:13:07.580 remains protected and private.
00:13:10.480 High quality and timely data
00:13:12.640 are critical to ensuring
00:13:13.840 the government programs
00:13:14.900 remain relevant
00:13:15.880 and effective for Canadians.
00:13:17.740 Well, we showed you that clip
00:13:20.500 and more from the exchanges
00:13:22.120 this week in Parliament.
00:13:24.560 I'm glad the official opposition
00:13:25.800 is raising the alarm.
00:13:27.400 I think there's several
00:13:28.220 odious aspects
00:13:29.020 to Justin Trudeau's answers.
00:13:31.240 I'm not as worried
00:13:32.940 about my private,
00:13:34.420 intimate banking details
00:13:36.020 being released to the public
00:13:37.680 as I am
00:13:38.780 of them being released
00:13:40.100 to him.
00:13:41.840 So the fact that he's saying
00:13:43.200 they'll remain private,
00:13:44.060 well, they will not be
00:13:44.740 remaining private
00:13:45.700 because they will go
00:13:46.580 into the hands
00:13:47.040 of the government.
00:13:47.520 And I am not confident
00:13:49.300 that a government
00:13:50.120 that had more than
00:13:51.000 2,300 security breaches
00:13:53.500 with Revenue Canada's
00:13:55.460 secret information
00:13:56.380 will be able to handle
00:13:58.120 a database of half a million
00:13:59.960 real-time Canadians
00:14:01.600 and their most intimate details.
00:14:03.680 And just stop and think about it.
00:14:06.160 You might not be upset
00:14:07.080 about Trudeau knowing
00:14:08.500 you bought a candy bar
00:14:09.640 for a dollar at 2 p.m.
00:14:12.300 on this day in this store,
00:14:13.460 but what if you went to a bar
00:14:16.500 and had a drink
00:14:17.280 and you paid for it
00:14:18.220 on a credit card?
00:14:18.880 Now Trudeau knows that.
00:14:20.460 What if you went to a hotel
00:14:22.960 somewhere and stayed somewhere
00:14:25.280 and now they know that.
00:14:26.460 What if you went to a drugstore
00:14:28.740 and bought a certain kind
00:14:29.960 of medicine
00:14:30.600 and that's being tagged?
00:14:33.500 Where you bought it?
00:14:34.660 How much you paid?
00:14:35.840 What store you went to?
00:14:36.760 You don't realize
00:14:38.080 how many things in your life
00:14:39.540 are actually private.
00:14:43.180 Do you want Justin Trudeau
00:14:44.400 to know about it?
00:14:46.040 Joining us now via Skype
00:14:47.160 is our friend Lauren Gunter,
00:14:48.260 senior columnist
00:14:48.900 for The Edmonton Sun,
00:14:49.660 who's written about this.
00:14:50.920 His column is called
00:14:51.820 Private Bank Info Grab
00:14:53.240 Will Make Government
00:14:54.280 More Expensive.
00:14:55.460 Lauren, welcome to the show.
00:14:56.460 I think expensive
00:14:57.540 is the least of the worries,
00:14:58.940 but yeah,
00:14:59.260 it'll make government
00:14:59.820 more expensive too.
00:15:01.440 Well, you know,
00:15:02.420 I'm worried about them
00:15:03.800 knowing the personal level details.
00:15:07.740 For instance,
00:15:08.620 they've asked the banks
00:15:09.540 not only for this,
00:15:11.280 what they call
00:15:12.040 individual level transaction,
00:15:14.460 so they want to know,
00:15:16.160 did you pay for that escort
00:15:18.460 that you frequented
00:15:20.440 while you were on a business trip
00:15:21.840 with a credit card,
00:15:23.140 a debit card, cash?
00:15:24.740 I mean, they want to know
00:15:25.620 that level of detail.
00:15:27.580 Not only do they want
00:15:28.500 to know that level,
00:15:29.220 they want the banks
00:15:30.480 to give them
00:15:31.360 your social insurance number
00:15:33.020 when they hand over
00:15:34.020 your individual transaction.
00:15:35.860 So that's very concerning.
00:15:37.940 I mean, they say it's,
00:15:39.580 what did Tru will call it,
00:15:40.800 anonymized.
00:15:43.140 Well, maybe at some point
00:15:44.920 it will get to be anonymized,
00:15:46.280 but it's not when it comes
00:15:47.480 from the banks.
00:15:50.040 It's very personalized
00:15:51.220 at that point.
00:15:52.160 That is very disturbing.
00:15:53.540 This is a government
00:15:54.160 that doesn't handle
00:15:55.220 personal information
00:15:57.200 particularly well.
00:15:58.480 But the bigger concern
00:16:00.460 that I have
00:16:01.300 is that over time
00:16:03.260 they're going to say,
00:16:04.740 look,
00:16:05.460 oh,
00:16:05.840 this percentage of Canadians
00:16:07.260 is under-reporting
00:16:08.540 its income.
00:16:10.340 So not just filing
00:16:12.500 an income tax return
00:16:13.700 and all the details
00:16:14.640 with that,
00:16:15.380 that's not good enough
00:16:16.400 for them.
00:16:16.760 They want to know more
00:16:17.860 and they're going to say,
00:16:18.480 oh, well, you know,
00:16:19.240 if say a quarter
00:16:20.880 or a third of Canadians
00:16:22.040 have a little bit
00:16:22.880 extra income
00:16:23.580 than what they've been
00:16:24.700 reporting to the government,
00:16:25.800 well,
00:16:26.080 then we can raise taxes.
00:16:27.600 And then they'll look
00:16:29.080 at this and they'll say,
00:16:29.660 oh, you know,
00:16:30.260 my goodness,
00:16:31.180 our social programs,
00:16:32.700 as enormous as they are,
00:16:34.480 as expensive as they are,
00:16:35.920 well,
00:16:36.040 they're just not creating
00:16:37.740 the solutions
00:16:38.360 that we think they should.
00:16:39.540 So they have to be bigger.
00:16:41.480 We have to have
00:16:41.940 more bureaucrats.
00:16:42.760 We have to spend
00:16:43.420 more money.
00:16:44.120 We have to transfer
00:16:45.060 more of income
00:16:46.360 from A to B
00:16:47.640 or from one region
00:16:48.480 to another.
00:16:49.620 This is merely
00:16:50.720 an excuse.
00:16:51.500 There could be
00:16:52.920 privacy breaches.
00:16:55.420 There could be
00:16:56.080 information that's
00:16:57.220 picked up by hackers
00:16:58.300 that's used
00:16:58.960 against bank customers
00:17:00.600 to take their money
00:17:02.400 or to use their credit cards
00:17:03.720 against their will.
00:17:04.380 But my bigger concern
00:17:05.380 is that in general,
00:17:06.940 even if they keep
00:17:07.940 all of this stuff
00:17:09.020 very tightly secured,
00:17:11.100 they're still going to find ways
00:17:12.720 from this information
00:17:13.880 to expand the state.
00:17:16.360 And that's what bothers me
00:17:17.420 more than anything else.
00:17:18.060 No government has a right
00:17:19.100 to this information,
00:17:20.160 period.
00:17:20.400 Regardless of what
00:17:21.960 they're going to use it for
00:17:22.880 in the absence
00:17:24.300 of criminal suspicion.
00:17:26.740 If they suspect
00:17:27.360 you're guilty
00:17:28.360 of some criminal aspect,
00:17:29.440 they go to a judge
00:17:30.280 and they say,
00:17:30.820 hey, look,
00:17:31.080 we'd like to look
00:17:31.760 at this person's bank records.
00:17:33.280 We'd like to look
00:17:33.760 at more detail
00:17:34.660 about their income.
00:17:36.800 Fine.
00:17:37.780 They can do that
00:17:38.740 if a judge says okay.
00:17:40.360 But this is without a judge.
00:17:41.960 This is without your knowledge.
00:17:43.020 This is without the banks
00:17:44.600 being able to get in
00:17:45.800 between the government
00:17:47.580 and its customers
00:17:48.520 and say,
00:17:49.120 hey, wait a minute.
00:17:50.400 The banks have said,
00:17:52.020 we don't really feel
00:17:52.940 comfortable doing this.
00:17:54.560 But there is a law
00:17:55.880 that was passed
00:17:56.600 by the liberal majority
00:17:57.700 last year
00:17:58.560 that says,
00:18:00.800 StatsCan can ask
00:18:01.800 for this information
00:18:02.540 and the banks
00:18:03.240 cannot say no.
00:18:04.680 Well, that's incredible.
00:18:06.180 And I should tell you
00:18:06.980 that we are,
00:18:08.260 I haven't announced it yet,
00:18:09.400 but we're talking
00:18:10.000 with a senior law firm
00:18:11.720 of privacy law
00:18:13.420 in Toronto.
00:18:14.080 and we hope
00:18:15.200 to make an announcement,
00:18:16.120 I hope as soon as tomorrow,
00:18:17.740 of a legal challenge
00:18:18.800 to this
00:18:19.240 that we'll look
00:18:19.800 to crowdfund
00:18:20.460 because this is so outrageous.
00:18:22.340 Lauren,
00:18:22.460 I think you're onto something
00:18:23.360 when you say
00:18:23.920 it'll be used
00:18:25.400 to justify more taxes
00:18:27.180 and more programs.
00:18:28.680 But I think the government
00:18:29.780 has no shortage
00:18:30.460 of justifications now.
00:18:32.080 I think it's actually
00:18:32.840 one level darker.
00:18:34.540 I think it will
00:18:35.960 provide a mechanism
00:18:37.560 for collecting
00:18:38.780 more taxes.
00:18:40.540 We've seen in China
00:18:41.660 how the government
00:18:43.300 there is trying
00:18:43.960 to link online searches
00:18:46.080 with your personal
00:18:47.140 phone number
00:18:48.200 so that they're
00:18:50.560 personalizing
00:18:51.600 what they know.
00:18:52.560 If you have
00:18:53.640 a database
00:18:55.260 of half a million people
00:18:56.360 and know exactly
00:18:57.120 what those individual
00:18:58.780 half million people
00:18:59.840 have done,
00:19:00.300 remember,
00:19:00.920 they're uploading
00:19:01.400 your social insurance number,
00:19:02.560 your date of birth,
00:19:03.140 your driver's license,
00:19:04.120 so they know exactly
00:19:04.940 who you are.
00:19:06.320 I don't think
00:19:06.980 they would stop at,
00:19:07.820 okay, well,
00:19:08.180 we know these guys
00:19:09.220 are not reporting
00:19:10.020 their income.
00:19:10.400 I think they would say,
00:19:11.260 oh, just plug that
00:19:12.760 into the CRA.
00:19:14.100 Just plug that
00:19:14.960 into CSIS
00:19:15.660 and the RCMP.
00:19:17.300 And frankly,
00:19:18.620 we don't even know
00:19:19.380 what we don't know
00:19:20.280 yet here, Lauren,
00:19:20.940 because remember,
00:19:21.340 this was broken
00:19:21.840 by our friend
00:19:23.600 David Aiken.
00:19:25.280 So this was a secret
00:19:27.100 until this weekend.
00:19:28.940 Until Sunday, yeah.
00:19:29.780 We don't know
00:19:30.300 what else remains secret.
00:19:32.480 We don't know
00:19:33.020 how this has been.
00:19:34.900 We know that banks
00:19:36.320 and Google
00:19:36.960 and Twitter
00:19:37.660 and Facebook,
00:19:38.560 they're all
00:19:39.440 having this dance
00:19:40.520 about data.
00:19:41.660 You have the Trudeau
00:19:42.920 government saying,
00:19:43.620 hey, Facebook,
00:19:44.360 link in.
00:19:45.160 Hey, banks,
00:19:45.960 link in.
00:19:46.820 And so I'm not so much
00:19:48.700 worried about
00:19:49.280 their rationale
00:19:50.320 for jacking up taxes.
00:19:51.960 I'm worried about
00:19:52.740 their power
00:19:53.340 just to go in
00:19:54.100 and grab it.
00:19:54.740 Well, there's no question
00:19:56.340 that that is
00:19:57.020 a potential threat.
00:19:57.900 I don't think
00:19:59.260 these people
00:19:59.820 are clever enough
00:20:00.480 to be there yet.
00:20:02.140 But the thing
00:20:02.920 that bothers me,
00:20:03.660 which could easily
00:20:04.820 lead to what
00:20:05.460 you're talking about,
00:20:06.660 is that inherent
00:20:08.340 in all of this
00:20:09.540 and the justifications
00:20:11.060 for it
00:20:11.700 is this
00:20:13.100 unquestioned belief
00:20:14.860 in the nobility
00:20:16.400 and effectiveness
00:20:18.180 of government.
00:20:18.880 You heard Trudeau
00:20:19.680 himself say,
00:20:20.820 we need this information
00:20:22.040 so that government
00:20:23.100 programs can remain
00:20:25.120 relevant and effective.
00:20:28.640 They're not relevant
00:20:29.420 and effective now.
00:20:30.860 But this is this belief
00:20:32.500 that government
00:20:33.080 means no harm,
00:20:35.120 that nothing government
00:20:36.280 does is ever going
00:20:37.300 to affect you
00:20:38.120 in a negative way.
00:20:39.580 Government is
00:20:40.040 purely a force
00:20:41.460 for good.
00:20:42.700 And it's not.
00:20:44.040 I mean,
00:20:44.220 I'm not saying
00:20:44.960 that it's evil.
00:20:46.040 It's mostly incompetent.
00:20:48.500 But in its clumsiness,
00:20:52.040 steps over people's
00:20:53.340 individual rights
00:20:54.120 all the time.
00:20:55.120 It gets in the way
00:20:56.020 of economic development.
00:20:58.660 Sometimes it does
00:20:59.800 good things,
00:21:00.580 but lots of times
00:21:01.640 it's just this big
00:21:03.460 lunky clump
00:21:04.580 that, you know,
00:21:06.180 bumps around
00:21:07.080 in dark rooms
00:21:08.680 and creates damage.
00:21:10.940 It's an unintentional
00:21:12.520 vandal,
00:21:13.080 if you want.
00:21:14.340 And that's what
00:21:15.060 distresses me.
00:21:16.460 The chief statistician,
00:21:17.640 the person who's
00:21:18.120 in charge of Stats Canada,
00:21:19.800 said pretty much
00:21:20.380 the same things
00:21:21.060 Trudeau did.
00:21:21.640 Well, you know,
00:21:22.520 we don't mean
00:21:23.340 any personal invasion
00:21:25.120 with this,
00:21:25.860 but gosh,
00:21:26.360 we need this information.
00:21:28.280 It helps direct
00:21:30.180 government programming
00:21:31.320 and funding.
00:21:31.840 And this is exactly
00:21:32.620 the same excuse
00:21:33.460 they used
00:21:34.020 when the Harper
00:21:36.300 government in 2011
00:21:37.200 said people didn't
00:21:38.300 have to fill out
00:21:39.140 the long form
00:21:40.320 of the census.
00:21:41.320 There's a mandatory
00:21:42.260 long form.
00:21:43.060 The liberals have brought
00:21:43.800 it back since they've
00:21:44.500 been in government.
00:21:45.080 In fact,
00:21:45.320 it was the first thing
00:21:46.020 they did because
00:21:46.600 socially,
00:21:47.660 this is about
00:21:48.720 whether or not
00:21:49.560 you believe
00:21:50.500 in government.
00:21:51.520 Do you believe
00:21:52.560 wholeheartedly
00:21:53.500 in the goodness
00:21:54.140 of government?
00:21:54.960 Well, yes.
00:21:55.620 Then you don't mind
00:21:56.420 giving them your
00:21:57.020 individual bank records.
00:21:58.280 Well, I think
00:21:59.080 they've underestimated
00:22:00.140 Canadians in this case.
00:22:01.860 They didn't necessarily
00:22:02.960 on the census.
00:22:03.920 There were an awful lot
00:22:04.420 of people that,
00:22:04.860 I don't care whether
00:22:05.860 I have to fill out
00:22:06.460 the long form
00:22:07.020 or the short form.
00:22:07.760 I think the conservatives
00:22:08.760 are making too much of this.
00:22:09.900 But when you start saying,
00:22:11.200 you remember
00:22:12.100 that online purchase
00:22:14.800 you made
00:22:15.240 that you maybe
00:22:16.200 didn't want your spouse
00:22:17.060 to know about,
00:22:17.880 well,
00:22:18.660 the StatsCan's
00:22:19.240 going to know about it.
00:22:20.340 So who else
00:22:21.180 is going to know about it?
00:22:21.880 Or the CRA's
00:22:22.660 going to know about it?
00:22:23.720 Who else is going
00:22:24.540 to know about it?
00:22:24.980 At one point,
00:22:26.100 I remember in the 1990s
00:22:28.160 when you and I
00:22:28.640 worked together,
00:22:30.220 there were 25,000 people
00:22:33.800 in the federal government
00:22:35.260 who could have access
00:22:36.960 to your income tax record.
00:22:38.760 Now, your income tax record
00:22:39.760 is supposed to be
00:22:40.700 extremely sacred
00:22:42.240 and extremely confidential.
00:22:44.700 But there were 25,000 people
00:22:47.440 in different departments
00:22:48.180 who had access to it.
00:22:49.340 Wow.
00:22:49.680 That was in the 90s.
00:22:50.800 Now, imagine how many people
00:22:51.880 have access to it now.
00:22:53.140 Yeah.
00:22:53.560 Well, as I mentioned
00:22:54.620 on yesterday's show,
00:22:55.400 there were over 2,300 breaches
00:22:57.080 at the CRA alone.
00:22:58.340 But the CRA only has
00:22:59.740 what information
00:23:00.400 you positively give them.
00:23:02.300 They don't have real-time access
00:23:03.600 to every Interact payment,
00:23:05.240 every e-transfer,
00:23:06.940 every time you go to an ATM.
00:23:09.380 Now, I acknowledge
00:23:11.740 that I'm more pessimistic
00:23:12.920 and perhaps a little bit darker
00:23:14.240 than you are.
00:23:15.060 And that's one of the reasons
00:23:16.200 you're much more popular than me
00:23:18.100 is that you are a happier person.
00:23:22.420 But I know this.
00:23:23.580 I know that Justin Trudeau
00:23:25.040 brought in senior campaign managers
00:23:29.280 from Barack Obama's campaign
00:23:31.220 in his 2015 election.
00:23:33.920 By the way,
00:23:35.020 if a conservative campaign
00:23:36.960 ever brought in Steve Bannon
00:23:38.780 or a senior Republican,
00:23:39.940 it would blow up
00:23:40.780 the Canadian media,
00:23:42.060 when liberals brought in
00:23:43.920 senior Democrats,
00:23:44.700 it was just called
00:23:45.180 being savvy and worldly.
00:23:46.960 But those Americans,
00:23:48.680 especially from Chicago,
00:23:50.720 the Chicago way,
00:23:51.860 the Barack Obama style,
00:23:53.180 the city of Al Capone
00:23:54.800 and David Axelrod
00:23:55.920 and Rahm Emanuel,
00:23:58.140 those are the people
00:23:59.300 who weaponized the IRS
00:24:01.380 under Lois Lerner.
00:24:03.020 Those are the people
00:24:03.840 who started using
00:24:04.840 every single nonpartisan tool
00:24:06.920 of the U.S. government,
00:24:07.640 the Department of Justice,
00:24:09.200 for example,
00:24:09.940 to go after political enemies.
00:24:12.480 And Lauren,
00:24:12.920 I want to remind you
00:24:13.840 that just this summer,
00:24:16.000 Justin Trudeau
00:24:16.740 now had a political purity test
00:24:18.420 to get a summer jobs grant.
00:24:19.840 You have to sign on
00:24:20.740 to his political ideology
00:24:22.060 on abortion issues
00:24:24.040 or you wouldn't get
00:24:24.860 a summer grant.
00:24:25.780 I think that the Trudeau government
00:24:29.920 has shown that they're willing
00:24:32.360 to politicize things
00:24:33.720 and inappropriately.
00:24:35.820 And I don't even think
00:24:38.200 they think they're politicizing them.
00:24:39.600 I mean, take a look at Bannon.
00:24:40.700 You mentioned Bannon.
00:24:42.800 Coming to Toronto,
00:24:44.640 there are all sorts
00:24:45.700 of mainstream politicians
00:24:47.520 who say he should not be
00:24:49.140 allowed to speak.
00:24:50.540 So they believe that
00:24:52.780 his defense of populism
00:24:55.940 is so outrageous
00:24:57.960 that it amounts to hate.
00:24:59.400 And therefore,
00:25:00.460 he should be prevented
00:25:01.580 from speaking in Canada.
00:25:03.060 Well, when you get
00:25:05.060 to that point
00:25:05.720 where you think
00:25:06.340 the other side
00:25:07.240 is so unreasonable,
00:25:09.040 they should not even be heard.
00:25:11.260 Then you do start this.
00:25:12.780 It gets back to this thing
00:25:14.020 I said earlier,
00:25:14.720 this unquestioned belief
00:25:16.900 in the goodness of government.
00:25:18.500 And you start to think,
00:25:20.020 my goodness,
00:25:20.880 well, we could use government
00:25:22.220 to keep these radical people.
00:25:24.880 We should use government
00:25:25.760 to keep these extremists
00:25:27.840 from spreading their message
00:25:29.840 of hate.
00:25:30.480 And when you get more
00:25:32.160 and more and more information
00:25:33.540 about individuals,
00:25:34.320 you have more and more
00:25:35.580 and more levers to use
00:25:37.840 to try and silence them.
00:25:39.480 So I do have,
00:25:40.540 in a general sense,
00:25:42.800 a great concern
00:25:44.220 about this level
00:25:44.940 of individual detail,
00:25:46.220 this personal detail
00:25:47.200 being accumulated
00:25:48.640 in a database
00:25:49.500 that the government
00:25:50.060 has access to.
00:25:51.640 My more immediate concern,
00:25:53.440 as I said,
00:25:54.340 is that I'm just going
00:25:56.220 to use this as an excuse
00:25:57.400 to expand government spending
00:25:58.940 and increase taxes.
00:26:00.480 Well, we've seen
00:26:01.480 the abuse of conduct
00:26:02.500 by Facebook, Twitter,
00:26:03.660 and the other social media titans.
00:26:05.660 If someone has
00:26:06.560 the wrong opinion,
00:26:07.480 they'll just become unpersoned.
00:26:09.280 If you give the government
00:26:10.600 real-time access
00:26:11.500 to the same
00:26:12.300 or more information,
00:26:13.920 they could be
00:26:14.440 just as abusive.
00:26:15.260 You just got me thinking there.
00:26:17.200 So let's say
00:26:18.140 someone actually thinks
00:26:19.280 Bannon is interesting
00:26:20.640 and bought a Breitbart
00:26:23.860 baseball cap online
00:26:26.480 or supported the rebel
00:26:27.560 with a $10 donation.
00:26:30.380 Well, now that information
00:26:31.360 is going to be
00:26:31.760 in the hands of Justin Trudeau.
00:26:33.120 Half a million people
00:26:34.260 at a time.
00:26:35.560 Oh, I see you bought
00:26:36.940 something from Ben Shapiro.
00:26:38.440 Oh, I see you subscribe
00:26:39.780 to Glenn Beck
00:26:40.540 or Rush Limbaugh.
00:26:41.560 Oh, I see you bought a book
00:26:44.800 by a forbidden author
00:26:46.400 on Amazon
00:26:46.960 because I know
00:26:47.740 all these details
00:26:49.180 through your bank
00:26:50.720 and perhaps correlated
00:26:54.080 with information
00:26:54.920 we get directly
00:26:55.540 from Facebook.
00:26:56.260 This is a total,
00:26:58.540 what was the phrase
00:26:59.800 in the medieval times?
00:27:01.700 A panopticon.
00:27:03.700 A total all-seeing eye.
00:27:06.940 And I don't want that
00:27:07.980 in the hands of anyone,
00:27:09.420 let alone,
00:27:09.760 not even,
00:27:10.680 I wouldn't want it
00:27:11.160 in the hands of Stephen Harper.
00:27:12.400 I wouldn't want it
00:27:12.920 in the hands of Andy Shear,
00:27:13.800 let alone Justin Trudeau
00:27:15.460 and Gerald Budge.
00:27:16.100 You can use the modern term,
00:27:18.860 which is the deep state.
00:27:19.860 I mean,
00:27:20.920 this is the idea
00:27:22.220 that all of this
00:27:23.860 electronic information,
00:27:25.100 I mean,
00:27:25.300 you remember the panic
00:27:26.720 that there was on the left
00:27:27.880 under the Patriot Act
00:27:29.660 when the Bush administration
00:27:32.460 decided that it would have
00:27:33.860 supercomputers,
00:27:34.760 I think they're in Utah,
00:27:36.060 that would have all the data
00:27:39.260 that's transferred
00:27:40.000 in emails
00:27:40.720 and telephone calls
00:27:41.640 from everyone.
00:27:42.720 Yeah.
00:27:42.880 And when there were patterns
00:27:46.240 that they were detecting
00:27:47.380 in these,
00:27:48.440 there would be
00:27:49.720 a message spit out
00:27:51.100 that,
00:27:52.280 hey,
00:27:52.360 there's something
00:27:52.900 you might want to look at.
00:27:54.040 And then they had to
00:27:54.780 take that warning,
00:27:56.600 go to a federal judge
00:27:58.120 and say,
00:27:58.940 judge,
00:27:59.260 can we please look
00:28:00.180 at so-and-so's records
00:28:01.300 because there's a suspicion,
00:28:02.980 the computer's suspicious
00:28:03.860 that they're terrorists.
00:28:05.320 Right.
00:28:05.540 And there was,
00:28:06.280 oh my goodness,
00:28:07.400 I can't believe it.
00:28:08.700 This is such an impingement
00:28:10.880 on our freedom of information,
00:28:12.420 freedom of speech.
00:28:13.620 All of that
00:28:15.360 is at least as bad
00:28:17.240 in this.
00:28:18.360 And the very same people
00:28:20.260 who were horrified
00:28:21.860 by the Patriot Act
00:28:23.340 are saying,
00:28:24.400 oh,
00:28:24.640 this is just what we need.
00:28:26.620 We need this.
00:28:27.060 Well,
00:28:27.300 this is very troubling
00:28:28.500 and I think these things
00:28:29.760 are happening faster
00:28:30.700 than we know.
00:28:32.360 I think that the tech companies
00:28:34.200 are practicing
00:28:35.180 with the government of China
00:28:37.440 their technology.
00:28:38.680 We know that Google
00:28:39.360 is doing that.
00:28:39.880 We know Google
00:28:40.440 is working
00:28:40.980 with the government of China
00:28:42.340 and being compliant with them
00:28:43.760 and they're taking
00:28:44.720 their learnings
00:28:45.760 to the rest of the world.
00:28:46.940 We know Facebook
00:28:47.620 is already submitting
00:28:48.580 to Justin Trudeau's demands
00:28:50.500 and the banks,
00:28:52.140 the front line.
00:28:52.680 I find this deeply troubling.
00:28:54.600 Frankly,
00:28:54.920 it makes me want to
00:28:55.660 spend cash on things
00:28:57.660 instead of credit card.
00:28:58.620 Not that I'm doing
00:28:59.240 anything embarrassing or bad,
00:29:00.660 but I don't want Trudeau
00:29:01.660 watching everything I do
00:29:02.820 or 25,000 snoops.
00:29:04.860 Last word to you,
00:29:05.620 my friend.
00:29:07.280 Yeah,
00:29:07.560 I'm not as concerned
00:29:09.460 about that
00:29:10.000 in the immediate
00:29:10.860 in the next year or two,
00:29:13.100 but over 10 years,
00:29:14.420 over 20 years,
00:29:15.360 over 15 years,
00:29:17.660 maybe even only 15 years.
00:29:19.420 That's certainly all possible
00:29:21.320 and it's possible
00:29:22.620 not because I think
00:29:23.720 there's a group
00:29:24.360 that sits
00:29:24.880 in the cabinet briefing room
00:29:26.600 in the basement
00:29:27.200 of the National Defense Department
00:29:29.640 and schemes this.
00:29:32.640 It's going to happen
00:29:33.860 because of the bureaucratic banality
00:29:36.600 of all of this
00:29:38.280 and that is
00:29:38.800 they just want to do good
00:29:40.800 and they see this.
00:29:42.000 They get this information
00:29:42.840 that's just out there
00:29:43.620 and think,
00:29:43.960 oh,
00:29:44.160 if we can just grab
00:29:45.000 a little bit more of it,
00:29:46.040 we can make government
00:29:46.860 even better than it is now
00:29:48.120 because they already believe
00:29:49.360 government is really good
00:29:50.400 and that's what worries me
00:29:51.920 more than the conspiracy.
00:29:54.180 Yeah.
00:29:54.760 Well,
00:29:55.180 I think there's a lot
00:29:55.820 to be worried about.
00:29:56.560 I appreciate your time,
00:29:57.480 Lauren.
00:29:57.620 It's great to see you as always.
00:29:58.800 Let me just read out
00:29:59.360 the title of your article
00:30:00.140 one more time.
00:30:01.020 I encourage people
00:30:01.600 to find this
00:30:02.060 on the EdmontonSun.com website.
00:30:04.240 It's called
00:30:04.540 Private Bank Info Grab
00:30:06.220 will make government
00:30:07.420 more expensive.
00:30:08.440 Well,
00:30:08.560 that's for sure.
00:30:09.240 Lauren,
00:30:09.380 great to see you again.
00:30:10.940 Good to see you.
00:30:11.580 All right.
00:30:12.000 There you have it.
00:30:12.600 Our friend Lauren Gunter
00:30:13.700 from Edmonton.
00:30:14.860 Stay with us.
00:30:15.880 Oh,
00:30:16.000 by the way,
00:30:16.440 before I go,
00:30:17.580 have you signed
00:30:18.100 our petition yet
00:30:18.980 at
00:30:19.620 StopSnooping.ca?
00:30:23.180 StopSnooping.ca?
00:30:24.360 I'll have more news
00:30:25.280 for you and more about this.
00:30:26.300 We've got a lawyer
00:30:26.980 we're working with.
00:30:27.960 We're going to actually
00:30:28.560 challenge this thing
00:30:29.360 in court.
00:30:29.820 Stay with us.
00:30:30.320 More ahead on the rebel.
00:30:36.220 Hey,
00:30:42.980 welcome back
00:30:43.400 on my monologue yesterday
00:30:44.400 about Justin Trudeau
00:30:45.180 forcing the banks
00:30:46.200 to hand over
00:30:46.780 your private information.
00:30:49.580 Wendy writes,
00:30:50.980 there is no reason
00:30:52.280 that this data
00:30:52.780 has to be passed on
00:30:53.700 to StatsCan
00:30:54.300 with specifics about us.
00:30:55.960 Our social insurance
00:30:57.020 number,
00:30:57.320 date of birth,
00:30:57.720 address,
00:30:58.100 sex,
00:30:58.360 and name.
00:30:58.920 This is the start
00:30:59.620 of a fascist state.
00:31:00.680 But what do you expect
00:31:01.540 for someone who has
00:31:02.360 great admiration
00:31:03.740 for the dictatorship of China
00:31:05.020 and who wrote
00:31:05.960 a heartfelt eulogy
00:31:06.960 for Fidel Castro,
00:31:08.300 man of the people?
00:31:09.640 Well,
00:31:09.820 it's funny you mention that.
00:31:10.660 I don't know if you saw
00:31:11.300 or you remember
00:31:12.020 what I said to Lorne
00:31:12.820 a little while ago.
00:31:14.580 The big,
00:31:15.280 this is what they call
00:31:15.940 big data, right?
00:31:16.940 There's so much data
00:31:17.780 about all of us there
00:31:18.580 and Facebook and YouTube
00:31:19.540 and Google
00:31:19.980 are crunching through
00:31:21.100 and governments
00:31:21.600 are getting into it.
00:31:23.060 They're practicing in China.
00:31:25.540 There's something in China
00:31:26.500 they called social credit.
00:31:28.320 It's not like our political party
00:31:29.640 here in Canada
00:31:30.220 is social credit.
00:31:31.380 In China it means
00:31:32.420 a running government tally
00:31:34.560 of if you're a good boy
00:31:36.380 or a bad boy.
00:31:37.240 It's like Santa's list
00:31:38.260 of who's been naughty
00:31:39.520 and nice.
00:31:41.200 And your social credit
00:31:42.500 in China means
00:31:44.120 are you compliant
00:31:45.260 and submissive
00:31:46.380 or do you have
00:31:47.660 too much to think?
00:31:49.120 And in China
00:31:49.980 your Google searches
00:31:51.000 are linked to your phone number
00:31:52.080 which is linked
00:31:52.500 to your identity.
00:31:53.980 That's what Google's
00:31:54.980 working on with China.
00:31:56.340 So everything you type
00:31:57.780 in the computer,
00:31:58.560 everything you say,
00:31:59.920 write, think even
00:32:01.580 goes on your social credit.
00:32:03.440 So they call it there.
00:32:05.860 They're testing
00:32:06.680 these things out in China.
00:32:08.760 The companies learn
00:32:09.720 these skills
00:32:10.360 and these tricks
00:32:11.000 and now they're trucking
00:32:12.880 with governments
00:32:14.180 in Europe and Canada.
00:32:16.000 I don't think Trump
00:32:17.000 is part of that
00:32:17.940 but I know Justin Trudeau
00:32:19.420 and most European governments
00:32:20.500 are.
00:32:20.760 I find that terrifying.
00:32:23.580 Billy writes,
00:32:24.940 maybe the Canada Revenue Agency
00:32:26.280 will look at your
00:32:26.920 interesting deposits
00:32:27.840 and withdrawals
00:32:28.680 and decide
00:32:29.380 an audit is in order.
00:32:30.580 Don't believe me?
00:32:31.240 Obama's IRS focused
00:32:32.580 on conservatives
00:32:33.180 for audits.
00:32:34.160 If Barack can get away
00:32:35.020 with it,
00:32:35.400 why not Justin?
00:32:36.480 Yeah, you know,
00:32:37.440 it's funny,
00:32:37.980 I didn't see your letter
00:32:39.320 when I raised that same
00:32:40.880 exact point
00:32:41.780 with Lorne Gunther.
00:32:43.240 Never trust the government.
00:32:44.600 The government
00:32:45.000 is not made of angels.
00:32:46.200 If men were angels
00:32:47.660 we wouldn't need
00:32:48.460 any laws,
00:32:49.180 now would we?
00:32:50.720 We wouldn't even
00:32:51.460 need a CRA.
00:32:52.720 Everyone would just
00:32:53.260 submit their taxes
00:32:53.980 honestly and perfectly.
00:32:56.020 The whole fact
00:32:57.140 that we need to be governed,
00:32:58.060 that we have a judiciary,
00:32:58.960 that we have police,
00:32:59.640 we have checks and balances,
00:33:01.040 is because we are not angels.
00:33:03.420 And why would you think
00:33:04.500 that someone,
00:33:05.120 because they're a public sector
00:33:06.880 government worker,
00:33:08.160 is somehow morally
00:33:09.380 or genetically
00:33:10.060 or emotionally
00:33:11.240 or criminally superior
00:33:12.840 to your ordinary Joe?
00:33:15.340 Yeah, you insane.
00:33:16.380 I mean, just think about,
00:33:17.780 think about the information
00:33:19.720 that every time
00:33:21.660 you use a piece of plastic
00:33:22.780 to buy this,
00:33:23.580 buy that,
00:33:24.700 the time,
00:33:25.340 the place you were at,
00:33:26.320 what you bought,
00:33:27.040 that's all being fed
00:33:28.140 into the government.
00:33:30.240 It's enough to make
00:33:31.000 a fellow go back to cash.
00:33:33.700 Someone with a nickname,
00:33:34.860 I'm guessing this is a nickname
00:33:36.380 because it doesn't sound
00:33:37.120 like a Christian name,
00:33:38.480 Whitey McPrivilege
00:33:39.840 writes,
00:33:42.120 funny how the liberals
00:33:43.000 have no problem
00:33:43.600 secretly collecting
00:33:44.300 personal banking
00:33:44.940 and credit information
00:33:45.820 from anyone who has
00:33:46.900 a social insurance number,
00:33:48.080 but when it comes down
00:33:49.080 to verifying a person's
00:33:50.500 citizenship and eligibility
00:33:51.600 to vote at election time,
00:33:53.000 oh no,
00:33:53.640 there's no way
00:33:54.220 we can do that.
00:33:55.460 What a great point.
00:33:58.220 There,
00:33:58.680 you just need
00:33:59.240 any sort of idea,
00:34:00.540 like here's my Costco card,
00:34:01.760 can I vote now?
00:34:02.820 You're excited,
00:34:03.340 that is a very good point.
00:34:05.540 On my interview
00:34:06.020 with John Carpe,
00:34:06.760 Paul writes,
00:34:08.360 great to see that
00:34:09.060 the JCCF
00:34:10.080 is racking up
00:34:10.700 some victories.
00:34:11.820 They're a great organization
00:34:12.820 and deserve our support.
00:34:14.380 The Human Rights Commission
00:34:15.160 is a farce
00:34:15.840 and they really need to end.
00:34:17.620 Yeah,
00:34:17.780 you know what made me sad
00:34:18.600 about that interview
00:34:19.540 with John?
00:34:20.000 Two things.
00:34:20.420 First of all,
00:34:21.340 that it's just John
00:34:22.120 and his little band
00:34:22.760 of merry warriors
00:34:23.600 and I think they're great.
00:34:24.740 They're great.
00:34:25.720 You know I think they're great.
00:34:27.920 But there's so few of them,
00:34:29.240 it's one handful of them
00:34:30.900 versus all the power
00:34:33.580 of the state
00:34:34.420 and all these left-wing
00:34:35.600 public interest law firms.
00:34:37.120 It makes me sad
00:34:38.260 how few
00:34:38.800 and how small
00:34:39.760 John's entity is.
00:34:41.360 And the second thing is,
00:34:43.100 if you caught that part
00:34:44.520 where he was talking
00:34:45.180 about that transgender activist
00:34:47.560 who has complaints
00:34:48.560 against what was it,
00:34:49.320 16 female estheticians
00:34:51.820 who refused to work
00:34:52.640 on his kibbles and bits,
00:34:55.200 well,
00:34:55.860 the government
00:34:58.860 is keeping secret
00:34:59.780 14 of those women's identities.
00:35:02.500 So John can only help
00:35:03.580 two of them.
00:35:04.260 The other 14
00:35:05.000 are being put through the ringer.
00:35:06.560 That's abuse.
00:35:08.220 We're the feminists here.
00:35:09.460 We're the feminists.
00:35:10.740 It's outrageous.
00:35:12.420 Yeah,
00:35:13.000 I think there's a lot
00:35:13.540 more work to do.
00:35:14.160 I think the rebel
00:35:14.680 has a part of that.
00:35:15.580 And by the way,
00:35:15.980 if you want to see John
00:35:16.580 in person,
00:35:17.080 as I think I alluded to,
00:35:19.100 he'll be in Calgary
00:35:20.180 on November 10th
00:35:21.940 at our TheRebelLive.com.
00:35:24.800 Last I checked,
00:35:25.600 there was still some room.
00:35:27.340 I got to tell you,
00:35:28.540 you should get a ticket online
00:35:30.040 at TheRebelLive.com
00:35:31.400 because we're going to sell out
00:35:32.980 and I know some people
00:35:34.280 are going to come
00:35:34.880 on Saturday,
00:35:36.240 November 10th,
00:35:36.880 to buy tickets to the door
00:35:38.220 and I hope there's room
00:35:39.560 and we'll try and jam you in.
00:35:40.980 But if you want to be guaranteed
00:35:42.060 to get in,
00:35:43.300 please don't be disappointed.
00:35:44.420 Go to TheRebelLive.com.
00:35:45.680 It's going to be
00:35:45.960 a great lineup of speakers.
00:35:47.180 In fact,
00:35:47.340 just last night,
00:35:48.260 we booked another speaker,
00:35:49.420 our friend Prem Singh,
00:35:50.420 who's amazing.
00:35:52.380 That's it for today.
00:35:54.400 Can I tell you,
00:35:56.220 my buddy David Menzies
00:35:57.260 is down in Oaxaca.
00:35:59.180 That's a Mexican word.
00:36:00.640 That's where the caravan's
00:36:01.740 coming through
00:36:02.480 on its way
00:36:03.540 to the United States.
00:36:04.440 We sent David into that.
00:36:06.640 I hope he's fine.
00:36:07.960 David,
00:36:08.780 David's pretty street smart.
00:36:10.620 I think he'll be able
00:36:11.360 to take care of himself,
00:36:12.180 but it's a pretty exciting mission.
00:36:13.920 It looks like warmer weather too.
00:36:15.660 Anyhow,
00:36:15.880 so if you want to see
00:36:16.700 what David's up to,
00:36:17.340 go to CaravanReports.com.
00:36:22.460 CaravanReports,
00:36:23.120 plural,

00:36:24.440 for all of David's news.
00:36:26.400 I'm excited
00:36:26.940 that he's down there.
00:36:27.920 Okay, folks,
00:36:28.340 see you tomorrow.
00:36:28.920 Until then,
00:36:29.340 on behalf of all of us here,
