00:00:00.000
Hello, my friends. I don't even know if I'm allowed to ask these questions, but
00:00:04.780
can you question the vaccine itself, or is that banned? It's banned on YouTube. Is it banned
00:00:14.200
other places? And what if you're just reading the warning label on the vaccines? Does that
00:00:19.640
constitute illegal questioning of vaccines? What if you're a new Democrat member of Parliament
00:00:25.880
who got a vaccine and is now worried? I don't know. I'll take you through some of the
00:00:31.160
contradictions in the matter. Let me invite you to become a subscriber to what we call
00:00:36.280
Rebel News Plus. It's the video version of this podcast. I do a daily show, obviously.
00:00:40.980
Sheila Gunn-Reed, David Menzies, Andrew Chapitre, do a weekly show. And I think just as important
00:00:46.920
as what you get in terms of content is we get the eight bucks a month, which I know doesn't
00:00:53.120
sound like a lot, but it adds up. And that's what allows us to be independent and not reliant
00:00:58.180
on government. I would never take money from the government, unlike 99% of the Canadian media,
00:01:03.800
which is why we need viewer support. So please consider being a Rebel News Plus subscriber.
00:01:09.080
Just go to rebelnews.com and click subscribe. Thanks. Here's to the show.
00:01:23.120
Tonight, who is allowed to ask tough questions about the vaccines? Anyone? It's May 13th,
00:01:37.540
Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:41.300
There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:45.360
The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody
00:01:50.240
right to do so. I don't know if you noticed this. I mean, it's been going on for years.
00:01:59.720
You know you're not allowed to talk about certain things, right? You're not even allowed to ask
00:02:03.720
certain questions. That's never a good sign. But it's terrifying when it's about the central crisis
00:02:10.000
of our time, the pandemic we're in, and much more gravely, the political authoritarian response
00:02:16.340
to the pandemic. That's the real virus, I think. Did you know there are rules about what you can or
00:02:22.700
can't say about the virus? Well, maybe not rules that bind you, but certainly rules that bind me.
00:02:29.460
Here at Rebel News, we have more than 1.45 million YouTube subscribers. It's the heart of our business.
00:02:36.120
And look at the rules they have for talking about vaccines and the pandemic.
00:02:41.540
COVID-19 medical misinformation policy. YouTube doesn't allow content about COVID-19 that poses
00:02:52.160
a serious risk of egregious harm. Now, in the past, they would take that to mean you can't put videos
00:03:02.620
up of extremely dangerous stunts or violence. But look what they take that to mean now.
00:03:11.540
YouTube doesn't allow content about COVID-19 that poses a serious risk of egregious harm.
00:03:17.180
YouTube doesn't allow content that spreads medical misinformation that contradicts
00:03:23.000
local health authorities or the World Health Organization's medical information about COVID-19.
00:03:31.640
This is limited to content that contradicts World Health Organization or local health
00:03:36.700
authorities' guidance on treatment, prevention, diagnosis, transmission, social distancing and
00:03:43.580
self-isolation guidelines. The existence of COVID-19. Okay, but aren't some of those things subject to
00:03:52.920
debate? Is there only one opinion that's allowed on these things? And the answer is yes. Here, I'll read you
00:04:01.300
some more of the rules. What this policy means for you. If you're posting content, don't post content
00:04:07.500
on YouTube. If it includes any of the following treatment misinformation, content that encourages
00:04:13.220
the use of home remedies, prayer or rituals in place of medical treatments such as consulting a doctor
00:04:18.840
or going to the hospital, content that claims there's a guaranteed cure for COVID-19, content that
00:04:23.520
recommends use of ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID-19, claims that ivermectin
00:04:29.300
or hydroxychloroquine are effective treatments for COVID-19, other content that discourages people
00:04:34.880
from consulting a medical professional or seeking medical advice, prevention misinformation, contact
00:04:40.540
that promotes prevention methods that contradict local health authorities or World Health Organization.
00:04:47.160
There's a lot in there, but let me just pick one thing. You know, a lot of doctors recommend
00:04:53.500
hydroxychloroquine. It's a drug that's been around for decades. It's well known.
00:04:58.660
Doctors know, well, it's not an experimental drug at all. Now, I don't know if they're right. It might
00:05:04.280
be experimental to apply to COVID-19, but there are real doctors with real patients who say it really
00:05:10.620
works. In fact, I remember in the very early days of the pandemic, we showed a survey of hundreds of
00:05:18.960
working frontline doctors fighting COVID around the world, including even in China,
00:05:22.640
and hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin were those working doctors' top recommendations.
00:05:32.600
Now, maybe they're wrong, or maybe it's a minority opinion, but you're not even allowed to say it
00:05:39.480
online. And the authority that must be obeyed is the United Nations Agency called the World Health
00:05:45.020
Organization that's controlled by China. You've got so many things wrong about China,
00:05:50.060
like this notorious tweet from the early days. This is from the World Health Organization.
00:05:55.680
Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence
00:05:59.840
of human-to-human transmission of the novel coronavirus 219 identified in Wuhan, China.
00:06:05.660
That wasn't just wrong. That was a lie that was covering up for the Chinese dictatorship. That
00:06:11.280
was propaganda from the World Health Organization. You're not allowed to contradict them.
00:06:14.680
Here's a few more things that you just aren't allowed to say. You can't say the
00:06:20.800
earth is flat. So you can say, pardon me, you can say the earth is flat. That's not bad on YouTube.
00:06:29.100
You can say, I don't know, that there are aliens or UFOs. Elvis is still alive. You can believe in the
00:06:33.860
theory of man-made global warming. You can claim that we only have 10 years left to live because we're
00:06:38.240
all going to burn up or global warming or whatever it is now. You can have an opinion right or wrong about
00:06:43.520
anything. You can deny facts, but not about the precious pandemic and its quasi-religious
00:06:49.560
tenets like these. I'm going to read a little bit more. I'm almost like these.
00:06:53.040
Claims that wearing a mask is dangerous. It causes negative physical health effects.
00:06:58.100
Claims that masks do not play a role in preventing the contraction or transmission
00:07:01.460
of COVID-19. You just can't claim these things, even if that's what actual scientific studies show.
00:07:08.900
You just can't say those things. Claim that an approved COVID-19 vaccine will alter a person's
00:07:18.240
genetic makeup. Well, listen, various scientific and medical journals call the Pfizer and Moderna
00:07:25.320
vaccines gene therapy. Are you allowed to say that? I mean, these medical journals do.
00:07:30.040
Claims that any vaccine causes contraction of COVID-19. Now, I don't know if that's the case,
00:07:39.560
but are you saying that if it were found to be the case, you're not allowed to report it as news?
00:07:44.900
This next rule is quite something. Social distancing and self-isolation misinformation.
00:07:50.900
Content that disputes the efficacy of local health authorities or the World Health Organization's
00:07:55.040
guidance on physical distancing or self-isolation measures to reduce transmission of COVID-19.
00:08:00.820
So every single local authority is right, even when they disagree with each other. So in the UK,
00:08:07.920
there's a five-day quarantine when arriving at the airport. In Canada, there's a 14-day quarantine,
00:08:13.740
three of which you have to be in some COVID hotel. So they're both right, and you can't criticize
00:08:17.620
either of them? Because you know you've got different rules in different countries and provinces
00:08:21.900
and states and even city by city, and they're all correct. And if you disagree with any of them,
00:08:27.160
you're always wrong, because that's very dangerous. That's egregious harm, according to YouTube.
00:08:33.140
It's a very, very long list of things that you just can't say. Just about this subject, they also
00:08:38.560
say you can't repeat in any way Donald Trump's claims that the election was stolen from him.
00:08:44.340
I'm not kidding about that either. You might recall that's why we were censored by YouTube.
00:08:48.520
You can be a Democrat and claim that the 2016 election was stolen. That's what the Democrats
00:08:54.500
said for four years. You can say Trump stole it or Russia stole it or whatever. You can say that
00:08:59.400
without any proof. But no one is allowed to claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. In
00:09:05.040
fact, if you remember, I did a video on that in January. And then three months later, YouTube decided
00:09:11.420
that that was the reason they were taking me down, because I showed a clip that had a brief Trump
00:09:17.100
moment where he claimed that. And so YouTube suspended us for a week. So that's the world
00:09:21.700
of tech censorship now. Now it gets worse if you still speak out, despite the warnings from the
00:09:29.420
United Nations and China and the World Health Organization and YouTube. And I mean, who wouldn't
00:09:34.360
set their moral compass by them? They'll just, I don't know, go to their safe place, which is to
00:09:40.480
call you a racist. Here's a globalist from Calgary, my old debating partner, actually,
00:09:45.960
named Naheed Nenshi. He's the mayor of Calgary. And here's what he has to say.
00:09:50.060
Those people at those anti-mask protests, let's not kid ourselves. They're not people who need to eat.
00:09:55.760
They are people who are marching in thinly veiled white nationalist supremacist anti-government
00:10:01.500
protests. And they don't deserve that kind of sympathy.
00:10:04.080
Okay, got it. So if you don't like his lockdowns, you're a white supremacist. Here's Jagmeet Singh,
00:10:11.820
Yes, I do think that there is an connection with people who aren't wearing a mask or who
00:10:17.200
aren't following public health guidance and the extreme right. And the idea that folks in the
00:10:22.160
extreme right don't care about people around them, aren't concerned about the safety and well-being
00:10:27.220
of people generally, their neighbors and the people in the community, and to brazenly not
00:10:34.340
follow public health guidelines puts people at risk. And that is something that we've seen with
00:10:39.440
extreme right-wing ideology, putting people at risk, not being concerned about the safety of others,
00:10:44.760
not being concerned about the welfare of others. There is a connection, certainly.
00:10:47.600
Got it. Now, if I were Jagmeet Singh, who is so closely associated with extremist terrorists
00:10:54.840
that he is literally banned from traveling to India, I don't think I'd be accusing my fellow
00:10:59.440
Canadians of being extremists just because they don't like lockdown. In fact, people who oppose
00:11:04.500
the lockdowns, they come from all walks of life. They're from all races and religions. And there's
00:11:09.040
a lot of lefties there too. I was sort of startled to see that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was taking the real
00:11:14.580
lead on this issue in Europe, Naomi Wolf. Lots of organic, sort of hippie, natural living types.
0.99
00:11:19.920
It's as much a lefty thing as a right-wing thing. It's a working class thing, really, to be opposed
0.89
00:11:24.520
to the lockdowns. But there you have it. If you disagree with your local politicians, YouTube will
00:11:28.940
ban you. If you question the science, which changes all the time, YouTube will ban you. Other social
00:11:34.000
media too, Facebook, Instagram. See, what's the science on the vaccines though? You know they're all
00:11:40.420
experimental, right? You know none of them would normally be on the market. None of them would be
00:11:44.440
injected into people at this stage without more tests, right? I mean, you know that, right? They're
00:11:51.600
just because we're in emergency and they're for emergency use only because of the pandemic that we now
00:11:58.400
know predominantly attacks people in their 80s who have severe pre-existing health conditions like
00:12:04.220
diabetes, stroke, heart disease, dementia, et cetera. So usually three or four of these underlying
00:12:10.540
conditions. So you know that the COVID-19 virus is not really a young, healthy person's thing, right?
00:12:18.140
And you still want to take experimental medicine that has not been fully tested yet.
00:12:24.360
This is Pfizer's website. You can find the same thing on all of them.
00:12:28.040
Pfizer is a leading vaccine maker. This is from their website. Let me read a little bit of it.
00:12:35.640
The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine has not been approved or licensed by the U.S. Food and Drug
00:12:42.740
Administration, FDA, but has been authorized for emergency use by FDA under an emergency use
00:12:49.960
authorization to prevent COVID-19 for use in individuals 12 years of age and older.
00:12:58.040
The emergency use of this product is only authorized for the duration of the declaration
00:13:03.720
that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of the medical product
00:13:08.960
under Section 564B1 of the FD&C Act, unless the declaration is terminated or authorization revoked sooner.
00:13:18.080
So these vaccines are not approved. They have not proven themselves. They have not gone through all
00:13:28.060
their experience yet. It's not approved, but it's authorized, which is different. That means
00:13:33.740
we don't know if it's safe yet. They haven't been approved yet, but you're allowed to use them anyways
00:13:39.520
because we're in an emergency, emergency. So do you feel like you're in an emergency, willing to take
00:13:45.900
a medicine that has not yet been approved? Let me read just a little bit more from the Pfizer. This is
00:13:51.900
from their website. Am I allowed to say this? I don't know. It raises a lot of questions, but it's from the
00:13:56.540
vaccine company. What are the side effects of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine? There is a remote chance that
00:14:02.900
the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine could cause a severe allergic reaction. A severe allergic reaction
00:14:09.540
would usually occur within a few minutes to one hour after getting a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech
00:14:14.180
COVID-19 vaccine. For this reason, your vaccination provider may ask you to stay at the place where you
00:14:19.620
receive your vaccine for monitoring after vaccination. Signs of a severe allergic reaction can include
00:14:25.240
difficulty breathing, swelling of your face and throat, a fast heartbeat, a bad rash all over your body,
00:14:31.040
dizziness and weakness. Side effects that have been reported with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine
00:14:36.540
include severe allergy allergic reactions, non-severe allergic reactions such as rash, itching, hives
00:14:44.100
or swelling of the face, injection site pains, tiredness, headache, muscle pains, chills, joint pain,
00:14:50.100
fever, injection site swelling, injection site redness, nausea, feeling unwell, swollen lymph nodes,
00:14:56.900
diarrhea, vomiting, arm pain. These are not all the possible side effects of the Pfizer-BioNTech
00:15:02.500
vaccine. Serious and unexpected side effects may occur. Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is still
00:15:08.680
being studied in clinical trials. Am I allowed to say any of this? I mean, I'm just reading from Pfizer.
00:15:16.680
Is that okay that I say these things? But what about that AstraZeneca vaccine business? Is this safe?
00:15:24.700
Is it authorized? It's not approved yet, but is it authorized? Who's it authorized for? That seems to
00:15:31.460
change all the time. And when? And for one dose or two? And how long should you wait between doses?
00:15:38.020
And do the rules change because of science or because of politics? Here, get a load of the boss.
00:15:43.020
The prime minister and the government don't make health recommendations. That's not my job.
00:15:47.340
My job is to – I shared, for example, what the member asked what advice I personally got from my doctor.
00:15:54.980
I certainly encourage all Canadians to talk to their doctors. Who will then be informed by experts and doctors
00:16:01.460
both in their jurisdictions, in their provinces and territories, and by the national guidance from NACI and from Health Canada?
00:16:09.620
That is the best way to move forward. Don't take recommendations from politicians, particularly not conservatives.
00:16:15.340
Take recommendations from your doctors and the experts.
00:16:18.260
Yeah. Does anyone trust these people? Well, if you're confused, you're not the only one.
00:16:24.580
Banning AstraZeneca, then unbanning it, then telling people it's really, really good.
00:16:29.220
Unless you can avoid it, please take another one. Or Johnson & Johnson, that that was paused.
00:16:33.460
And then politicians wonder why people don't want to sign up for these vaccines.
00:16:37.420
They can't even give them away. One U.S. state is actually offering weekly lotteries for a million dollars for people who take the vaccine.
00:16:46.060
Wow, that must be some terrifying pandemic if you have to bribe people with a million-dollar payout to take the vaccine.
00:16:52.820
But look at poor Charlie Angus. You know who he is? He's the NDP member of Parliament from Northern Ontario.
00:16:58.140
You know, I really like him about half the time, and I really don't like him the other half of the time.
00:17:03.260
But he's actually one of the few independent-minded MPs, so let's give him that.
00:17:10.660
I took the first dose of AstraZeneca. The question is, what is the plan for the second dose?
00:17:16.100
Ontario says it's an issue of blood clots. Alberta says it's a lack of supply.
00:17:21.620
Justin is spinning the benefits of a one-dose summer.
00:17:24.920
People deserve clear answers from health officials.
00:17:29.080
That's Charlie Angus. He's an NDP MP. He works for Jagmeet Singh.
00:17:34.640
Is Charlie Angus, as Jagmeet Singh would say, is he a white supremacist, racist, extremist?
00:17:58.140
Well, I've had the theory for a while now that one of the reasons why Canada is making travel so very difficult
00:18:08.000
is that the government doesn't want you to see other places where life is normalizing.
00:18:13.000
And by so difficult, I don't just mean the 14-day quarantine to come back home, which bans so many forms of travel.
00:18:22.040
Because who can take 14 days after a short business trip?
00:18:26.600
Or if you were to take a longer vacation, who can add on two weeks and time off?
00:18:32.180
I think that's designed to dampen the number of people who go abroad at all.
00:18:36.800
And then the actual COVID hotels at the airports, where you have to stay in a crappy hotel at an extremely high price,
00:18:48.500
I think that was deliberately designed to be an awful experience and deliberately designed to be a media scandal,
00:19:00.820
So if you can't go to Florida or Texas to see that places are normalizing,
00:19:07.360
and the only way you can learn about the world is what you see in your own town and everyone's wearing a mask,
00:19:16.920
well, then you're going to stay obedient and conditioned to be a prisoner.
00:19:21.360
And this is a theory of mine, having not left the country for 14 months myself.
00:19:26.860
As you may know, in the before times, I traveled to the United States from time to time,
00:19:32.120
and I had a bit of a habit of traveling to the United Kingdom for various reasons,
00:19:36.120
including our interest in the case of Tommy Robinson,
00:19:38.280
who fought a series of free speech battles, which were of great interest to us and to me.
00:19:48.480
So I can only figure out the world through the eyes of the media, too, and it's a difficult thing.
00:19:55.940
But a couple of weeks ago, we sent one of our youngest reporters, Lincoln Jay,
00:20:01.120
and we sent him to the UK to do some stories on some fight-the-fines cases we've had over there.
00:20:10.140
And the very first thing we realized is that they only have a five-day quarantine going into the UK,
00:20:16.760
and you don't have to serve it at a quarantine jail in the airport.
00:20:21.260
And once Lincoln got through his five-day mini-quarantine,
00:20:26.060
even before that, frankly, he could see out of his hotel window,
00:20:31.440
The pubs, while not open inside, all had their patios open.
00:20:43.360
You've been over there in the UK for more than a week now.
00:20:46.500
If you had to sum it up, how would you describe it and compare it to Canada?
00:20:52.260
Well, first of all, like you said, having the patios open is huge, right?
00:21:01.940
But besides that, you can go to the gym right now, work out.
00:21:07.320
I think that would be a huge shocker to most Canadians,
00:21:10.260
the fact that you don't have to wear a mask inside of a gym,
00:21:18.800
But nonetheless, just the whole vibe here is different.
00:21:23.660
You know, I would say like my estimate is that two to three out of ten people
00:21:33.340
And when you don't wear a mask, no one tells you to put one on.
00:21:39.520
In Canada, if you go into a grocery store without a mask,
00:21:44.040
you'll have a number of people telling you to put the mask on.
00:21:48.860
So that is the, it's honestly been a bit of a culture shock.
00:21:52.700
And I don't think you mentioned, but they are planning to open indoor dining on Monday.
00:21:57.600
They're going to be opening amenities in gyms, such as steam rooms and saunas.
00:22:05.720
it seems that life might be largely returning back to the UK.
00:22:14.140
which is one of the most viciously locked down cities in Canada.
00:22:18.480
So there are other places in Canada that weren't quite as brutal,
00:22:25.100
I mean, Alberta has literally been jailing pastors.
00:22:28.420
And, and, and of course, there's a curfew on in most parts of Quebec.
00:22:35.200
I think you're right to say that the scolding, that's a particularly Canadian thing to,
00:22:41.740
you know, the goody two shoes, flip it around, a form of virtue signaling.
00:22:49.600
And that, that's a really ugly part of, I think, a Canadian mindset.
00:23:00.260
But I, but I think that is something people across Canada, at least in cities,
00:23:04.460
I don't think country people are crazy like that.
00:23:07.200
So you're saying that scolding, snitching, where's your mask?
00:23:19.300
It's, it's weird for me to even look at someone across, say, I like using the reference being
00:23:24.840
on the two, right, on the subway and seeing people, you can just look across and people
00:23:30.520
It feels like it's like how it was back in 2019 and prior, you know?
00:23:34.960
So it's, it honestly took me a bit of getting used to, you know?
00:23:39.160
And another thing is that on, on the London transport, so whether that's, you're taking
00:23:48.000
So they do have a, they do have announcements at every stop saying, please remember to wear
00:23:54.900
But the thing that I noticed is that at the end of the announcement, they say, please be
00:24:14.280
That's very opposite, as you may know, because we have that website, maskexemption.ca.
00:24:20.200
There are exemptions in every single mask law in Canada.
00:24:28.080
But, um, exemption, exemptions are treated as abuses.
00:24:35.660
And, you know, I have a friend who's asthmatic.
00:24:40.120
The abuse he tells me he gets, he's not a faker.
1.00
00:24:43.500
He's, he, he cannot wear that thing on his face.
00:24:46.880
And the torrent of abuse, it's like people say, uh-huh, I'm so frustrated.
00:24:52.260
I'm going to expiate all my frustration from the, on him.
00:24:58.860
And I'm going to, uh, falsely say he's why we're in this situation.
00:25:04.980
I'm going to take out all the sins of society on him because he's not wearing a mask.
00:25:14.680
And you're telling me that in the United Kingdom, that flag is optional.
00:25:22.280
Now, to be honest with you, the people have told me that they, you will run into, let's
00:25:28.380
say you see a police officer at a, at a station.
00:25:31.220
They may ask you to, to show your exemption if you're not wearing a mask.
00:25:35.580
But personally, I haven't run into anything like that.
00:25:46.240
Like I, I've been telling everyone at the office, everything, and it's hard for them
00:25:53.060
No, well, listen, that's, that shows how rewired your brain is in our whole society.
00:26:00.680
So I should tell you, I think you may be legally incorrect if you're implying that you have
00:26:07.940
I don't believe that that is the case either in Canada or the UK.
00:26:11.340
That would be tantamount to police asking for your medical, private medical information,
00:26:19.660
Speaking of the law, one of the reasons you're over there, besides to tell the story of what
00:26:23.660
the UK is like, is to do a little bit of work on our fight the fines cases in the UK.
00:26:29.640
We have over 1200 fight the fines cases, but the vast majority of them are in Canada.
00:26:40.360
We're sort of winding down our fight the fines UK because, you know, the lockdown is being
00:26:48.640
I'm not saying there aren't civil liberties infringements.
00:26:51.480
I'm just saying, you know, we're based in Canada.
00:26:59.080
Tell me a minute about some of the fight the fines cases that you are working on over there
00:27:04.020
Well, the first one, we actually got one out yesterday, which was, I think is a, it's a
00:27:11.360
very relatable story to, to anyone who's, uh, to any, to any family.
00:27:17.120
So it was a mother who took her family to the beach, you know, for, for simply for exercise.
00:27:22.560
And that's, you're allowed open air recreation.
00:27:25.180
That rule never changed during, during the lockdown here in the UK.
00:27:28.460
And, uh, she was, uh, approached by police and, uh, long story short, they, uh, they ended
00:27:34.780
up handcuffing her and putting her in the back of a police car for simply, they call it playing
00:27:42.160
So I assume that's, uh, playing football, soccer, right.
00:27:45.480
And, uh, you know, it's, it's hard to grasp a, another one is a, a, uh, older gentleman
00:27:53.560
They, they took a trip down for groceries and they decided to stop at the beach for, uh,
00:28:01.340
And I think the most interesting part about that is that they were inside their car the
00:28:07.700
They didn't, they didn't exit their car and the police did the same thing.
00:28:11.840
They came and basically accused them of, of violating the restrictions at the time.
00:28:17.120
So, uh, you know, I guess that's the reason why we are doing this, this campaign fight the
00:28:23.900
fines to, to bring light to these kinds of situations and, uh, and hopefully to help stop
00:28:30.120
them in the future, which I think they've already had an impact for sure.
00:28:37.540
Uh, the clients, I mean, I, I worked on our very first UK case, Amy Stewart being the client,
00:28:43.160
a wonderful lady who was clearly abused by police, thrown in the black back of a police
1.00
00:28:49.840
Um, and it was funny because in the early months I was far more worried about Australia and the
00:28:57.600
Um, it's like we saw a premonition of how bad things can be in those jurisdictions.
00:29:03.400
And then we didn't really start to see the craziness in Canada until the fall.
00:29:09.380
And then it's just been outrageous this spring.
00:29:12.000
Of course, as you know, we are suing various police forces in Canada on behalf of our own
00:29:18.640
I think, uh, you yourself were arrested or manhandled by police for doing journalism.
00:29:24.920
So it's just the civil liberties descent, it's slowly at first, and then it goes quite
00:29:31.880
I'm glad you're tidying up those fight the fines cases.
00:29:34.880
And given the journey you've made over there, I hope that you take the time.
00:29:38.340
I know you're working on a story from Dover on human smuggling into the UK from the mainland.
00:29:44.140
I look forward to seeing your reports on the other stories in that kingdom, which I miss
00:29:50.840
And I hope that we will be normalized soon too.
00:29:56.560
I have to say, looking at the total bungling of the situation in Canada, I, and I, I hate
00:30:04.540
to say it, I think we're going to be in a form of lockdown well into 2022.
00:30:11.800
It's almost June and we are still in the harshest lockdowns of the whole pandemic.
00:30:18.200
This whole, this whole pandemic since last March, it honestly just feels like a bad dream.
00:30:28.540
Well, uh, you're lucky to be over there in the UK and I'm sure you're enjoying it as
00:30:33.900
London is one of the world's most fascinating cities.
00:30:37.060
Uh, I forget who it was who said to be bored with London is to be bored with life because
00:30:42.100
everything is in London and for all its flaws, it's a great city and there's a lot of stories
00:30:48.400
So I look forward to seeing more stories from you, Lincoln.
00:30:50.620
Thanks for flying the rebel flag over in the UK.
00:30:58.180
If you're interested in seeing our UK cases, they're at fightthefines.co.uk.
00:31:06.720
Those are the special cases we're taking in the United Kingdom.
00:31:10.020
I think there's about a dozen of them compared to the approximately 1200 in Canada, but we
00:31:19.280
And it was very heartbreaking to me to see how abusive police in the UK became, which, uh,
00:31:25.900
really British police, the Bobbies taught the world about modern policing and they were
1.00
00:31:32.820
Uh, as you know, Lincoln has been doing other work with us.
00:31:37.620
You can see his other videos on lockdownreports.com.
00:31:42.600
On my show last night, SS writes, it didn't take long after January 21st for the world
00:32:03.760
And with Donald Trump no longer the boss of the free world, well, other people fill that
00:32:10.880
FD writes, those rockets were peacefully protesting just like the Black Lives Matter.
0.80
00:32:16.600
Oh, and those mean Israelis sending up their Iron Dome anti-missiles.
00:32:21.060
Dave writes, how did they get the rockets in the first place?
00:32:32.040
Uh, Gaza, of course, has access to the Mediterranean Sea, but they're fairly simple things that
00:32:37.440
can be made with relatively, like they're not high precision, um, you know, the kind
00:32:51.320
They don't have to be particularly accurate because if you're shooting in a city, anywhere
00:32:55.920
that lands, you're probably going to kill a civilian.
00:32:59.920
Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Highquarters, see you at home.
