Rebel News Podcast - YouTube suspended our channel for a week — here's what we did!

00:00:00.680 You're listening to a Rebel Media Podcast.

00:00:03.920 Hello, my Rebels. Today I have a special message.

00:00:06.560 I've released this in a number of platforms,

00:00:08.600 so I think the podcast is also a good place to do it.

00:00:11.600 As you may know, we have been suspended from YouTube for a week,

00:00:15.180 so we're back on there.

00:00:17.020 And I'm not so thirsty that I'm rushing in,

00:00:19.880 and oh, thank you, thank you, YouTube.

00:00:22.060 In fact, I sort of have a stern welcome back message

00:00:25.140 that I deliver on YouTube,

00:00:26.660 and I want to put it in my podcast today,

00:00:28.920 so give a listen to that.

00:00:31.000 By the way, it's a good way to stay in touch with us

00:00:33.180 to become a subscriber to Rebel News Plus.

00:00:36.240 That way no one can cut you off from us

00:00:38.140 like YouTube is trying to do

00:00:39.380 to come between us and our 1.45 million subscribers.

00:00:43.360 If you go to rebelnews.com and click subscribe,

00:00:45.660 it's eight bucks a month.

00:00:46.440 You get the video version of this podcast.

00:00:48.840 And I think it's also important,

00:00:50.900 we know who you are.

00:00:52.200 That way you can't be cut off from us

00:00:54.420 because some Silicon Valley tech giant wants it that way.

00:00:57.820 All right, here's today's show.

00:00:59.660 Tonight, YouTube's suspension of us is over.

00:01:03.120 For now, I'll tell you what we're going to do about it.

00:01:05.880 It's April 22nd, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:08.600 Why should others go to jail

00:01:12.420 when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:14.600 There's 8,500 customers here,

00:01:16.900 and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:18.660 The only thing I have to say to the government

00:01:20.620 about why I publish it

00:01:22.240 is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:01:24.540 YouTube suspended our channel for a week.

00:01:33.340 That week is now over,

00:01:35.140 and I'd like to tell you what happened

00:01:36.500 since YouTube wouldn't let us communicate with you until now.

00:01:40.320 They cut us off from everyone,

00:01:42.560 including our 1.45 million channel subscribers

00:01:45.560 who signed up to hear from us.

00:01:48.120 YouTube didn't just block us from speaking.

00:01:50.220 They blocked our 1.45 million friends from watching.

00:01:54.440 They punished you, not just us.

00:01:57.420 And I think they're going to do it again.

00:01:59.500 So I need your help.

00:02:00.840 If that happens again,

00:02:02.300 I want to be able to send you a text

00:02:04.240 or a quick email to let you know where you can find us.

00:02:07.820 YouTube refuses to give us any contact info for you,

00:02:11.620 but if you go to our website right now,

00:02:13.920 I'll wait.

00:02:15.320 Go to rebelnews.com,

00:02:17.540 and just take one second

00:02:18.840 and type in your mobile number or your email.

00:02:21.820 If YouTube bans us again,

00:02:23.580 I'll be able to tell you where we resurface.

00:02:26.400 You can unsubscribe from us anytime.

00:02:28.660 I just don't want YouTube to disconnect us again.

00:02:32.240 Okay, back to what happened.

00:02:33.960 I've learned a lot about YouTube in the past week,

00:02:36.260 and none of it is good.

00:02:37.960 They're an unethical company

00:02:39.360 with deceptive business practices.

00:02:42.000 They're owned by Google,

00:02:43.480 whose motto used to be,

00:02:45.380 don't be evil.

00:02:46.960 They officially decided to drop that a few years ago,

00:02:50.480 and it shows.

00:02:52.100 The first thing to know

00:02:53.300 is that in the past six years,

00:02:54.840 Rebel News has been on YouTube,

00:02:56.800 15,000 videos we've published on the platform,

00:03:00.000 we've never had a strike.

00:03:01.720 By that, I mean,

00:03:02.520 we've never violated their terms of service.

00:03:04.660 We follow the rules every time.

00:03:07.680 But suddenly, last week,

00:03:08.840 with no notice and no appeal,

00:03:10.620 they just suspended us,

00:03:11.880 refused to let us publish any new videos

00:03:13.940 or make a live stream.

00:03:15.780 They claim that an old video that I did

00:03:17.920 more than three months ago

00:03:18.940 suddenly violates their rules.

00:03:21.920 They didn't care about it back then,

00:03:24.160 but let's be honest,

00:03:25.160 they've been combing through our video library

00:03:26.880 going back years

00:03:27.940 to find something, anything to get us.

00:03:31.060 For all I know,

00:03:31.760 they've found other videos from the past

00:03:33.680 that they're waiting to use

00:03:35.000 as their next excuse

00:03:36.280 to ban us permanently.

00:03:38.460 They're tricky that way.

00:03:39.800 Don't trust them.

00:03:41.480 They chose this old video called

00:03:43.200 If Big Tech Can Silence Trump,

00:03:46.040 They Can Silence Anyone.

00:03:47.980 That's a bit ironic, isn't it?

00:03:50.040 It was a video about

00:03:51.220 how biased tech companies have become

00:03:53.520 and how brutally they censor conservatives.

00:03:56.780 That's the video they banned?

00:03:58.460 Hey YouTube, Orwell's 1984 was a warning,

00:04:02.220 not an instruction manual.

00:04:03.680 Don't be evil, okay?

00:04:05.760 In that video, I mentioned how Trump,

00:04:08.020 who was back then still a sitting president,

00:04:10.880 had his official announcements deleted

00:04:12.840 by social media companies,

00:04:14.700 even though foreign dictators like China

00:04:16.680 and Iran and Venezuela are allowed.

00:04:19.200 In my video, I didn't agree or disagree

00:04:21.500 with Trump's messages.

00:04:22.900 I just said they were banned.

00:04:24.840 I was showing how arrogant these censors are,

00:04:27.400 but YouTube claimed that even showing

00:04:29.680 a short clip from a Donald Trump video,

00:04:31.980 not to promote it or support it,

00:04:34.000 but merely to show what was banned,

00:04:36.420 YouTube says that's why we were suspended.

00:04:39.980 But that's a lie.

00:04:42.080 Because CNN showed the same Trump video clip

00:04:44.820 on their YouTube channel

00:04:45.960 and they're not suspended.

00:04:48.160 ABC showed the same video clip

00:04:50.340 on their YouTube channel

00:04:51.580 and they're not suspended

00:04:52.900 because they're liberals

00:04:54.220 and we're conservatives.

00:04:55.360 Different rules.

00:04:56.180 You know, I laughed so hard

00:04:58.100 when I saw this YouTube video the other day.

00:05:00.300 Did you see this joke?

00:05:02.020 It's the president of YouTube,

00:05:03.800 Susan Wojcicki,

00:05:05.160 getting a Freedom of Expression Award.

00:05:07.800 I thought it was a joke

00:05:08.760 and apparently most YouTube viewers did too.

00:05:11.560 I've never seen that kind of ratio before.

00:05:13.800 About 100 people liked the video

00:05:15.300 and 26,000 dislike it.

00:05:18.200 Everyone knows it's a lie.

00:05:19.420 YouTube is the world's biggest censor.

00:05:20.660 I'm surprised YouTube didn't reset

00:05:23.580 those likes and dislike counters.

00:05:25.380 Who knows, maybe they did.

00:05:26.820 I mean, really,

00:05:27.340 who would give the world's most prolific censor

00:05:30.060 a free speech award?

00:05:32.020 Well, I researched the group that did.

00:05:34.120 They're called the Freedom Forum Institute.

00:05:36.120 I'd never heard of them before.

00:05:38.340 And if you look through their website,

00:05:40.340 you can see that YouTube

00:05:41.200 is a major corporate donor to them.

00:05:43.680 That's what happened.

00:05:44.880 And you can see,

00:05:45.660 and this is crazy,

00:05:46.500 right on their website,

00:05:48.120 they literally sell free speech awards

00:05:51.100 to people who donate enough.

00:05:52.620 I'm serious.

00:05:53.120 Let me read from their website.

00:05:54.220 Maybe you want to buy one for yourself.

00:05:56.600 We're happy to help corporations

00:05:58.180 explore the ways that they can

00:05:59.860 leverage their resources

00:06:01.900 and create positive buzz

00:06:03.940 around their brand

00:06:05.240 through a relationship

00:06:06.560 with the Freedom Forum.

00:06:08.540 I wonder if they would sell

00:06:09.640 one of those to Hugo Chavez

00:06:11.060 or the Ayatollahs of Iran.

00:06:13.080 Seriously, Susan Wojcicki

00:06:14.280 made a donation to these shills

00:06:16.060 to have them praise her on YouTube.

00:06:19.020 That's like sending yourself flowers

00:06:20.540 on Valentine's Day.

00:06:22.040 It doesn't really count

00:06:23.300 if you have to pay for it.

00:06:25.440 So our channel suspension is over,

00:06:27.500 but I believe we'll be hit again soon.

00:06:29.640 You see, this was actually

00:06:30.480 the second attack on us

00:06:32.380 in recent weeks.

00:06:33.520 Just recently, YouTube

00:06:34.760 suddenly cut off our ability

00:06:36.880 to run any ads at all

00:06:38.780 or use Super Chats,

00:06:40.400 and they gave no reason

00:06:41.400 for that at all.

00:06:43.060 So they're obviously coming to kill us.

00:06:44.680 This suspension was actually

00:06:46.420 their second attack on us.

00:06:49.180 So in the past week,

00:06:50.260 we've been busy.

00:06:50.980 We've spoken with the executives

00:06:52.180 at three rival YouTube platforms,

00:06:55.940 competitors to YouTube.

00:06:57.860 Rumble, Odyssey,

00:06:59.960 and one other company

00:07:00.800 that's about to launch

00:07:01.720 in the next week or so.

00:07:02.980 And although they still have

00:07:03.860 some catching up to do

00:07:04.940 to have all the bells and whistles

00:07:06.700 that YouTube has,

00:07:08.180 they're great websites.

00:07:09.940 And here's something weird.

00:07:11.520 Whenever we used to do

00:07:12.500 a live stream on YouTube

00:07:13.820 with our 1.45 million subscribers,

00:07:17.060 typically only about 1,500 of them

00:07:19.120 would watch.

00:07:20.140 Now, I never really thought

00:07:21.220 about that much.

00:07:22.600 Maybe our viewers just didn't care

00:07:23.940 what we had to say.

00:07:24.820 Maybe they were busy.

00:07:26.420 But that doesn't really make sense

00:07:28.080 that only one in a thousand people

00:07:30.140 who positively subscribe to us

00:07:32.040 would tune in

00:07:33.160 to a Rebel News live stream.

00:07:34.440 That makes sense.

00:07:35.380 I never thought about it too much

00:07:36.940 until we started

00:07:37.920 doing live streams

00:07:39.480 with these other companies

00:07:40.740 in the past week,

00:07:41.740 Rumble and Odyssey.

00:07:43.400 We have only a handful

00:07:45.040 of subscribers there.

00:07:46.020 We just signed up with them, right?

00:07:47.760 And yet, in our very first day,

00:07:49.960 we had more viewers

00:07:51.280 on our Rumble live stream

00:07:52.860 than we had on YouTube.

00:07:55.360 We had almost as many on Odyssey.

00:07:57.840 You know, I think YouTube

00:07:58.920 has been artificially suppressing

00:08:00.720 our live streams,

00:08:02.040 seriously, maybe by 99%.

00:08:04.100 I really think YouTube

00:08:06.180 are what they promised

00:08:07.280 they'd never be.

00:08:08.360 They are evil.

00:08:09.480 At least towards people they hate.

00:08:11.480 And I don't care

00:08:12.200 how many awards

00:08:13.040 they give themselves.

00:08:14.560 We all know

00:08:15.460 who they really are now, right?

00:08:17.820 So our suspension is over.

00:08:19.940 But I'm sure another one is coming.

00:08:22.400 They'll concoct another excuse.

00:08:25.040 I think one of the reasons

00:08:26.220 YouTube might be

00:08:27.140 in a real hurry

00:08:27.980 to bully us now,

00:08:29.120 after pretty much

00:08:29.900 leaving us alone

00:08:30.580 for six years,

00:08:31.560 is that Justin Trudeau,

00:08:32.960 Canada's Prime Minister,

00:08:34.440 well, he's got a censorship minister

00:08:36.240 named Stephen Gilboe,

00:08:37.420 and he's been threatening

00:08:38.660 social media companies

00:08:40.120 to crack down on his critics,

00:08:42.440 and he plans to bring in

00:08:44.320 a new censorship law

00:08:45.580 within new weeks.

00:08:46.500 He specifically says

00:08:47.960 he's going to create

00:08:49.160 a government regulator

00:08:50.560 to censor

00:08:52.000 social media platforms

00:08:53.720 that allow anyone

00:08:55.380 to taunt politicians.

00:08:57.720 hear it for yourself.

00:08:59.900 We've seen too many examples

00:09:01.580 of public officials

00:09:03.020 retreating from public service

00:09:05.040 due to the hateful

00:09:05.980 online content

00:09:07.020 targeted towards themselves

00:09:08.820 or even their families.

00:09:10.840 He's creating a new

00:09:11.760 ministry of censorship

00:09:12.740 to regulate YouTube,

00:09:14.940 Facebook, and Twitter.

00:09:16.340 I think we need

00:09:17.480 a new regulator.

00:09:18.800 I think this regulator

00:09:19.860 needs to be able

00:09:22.380 to have audit powers

00:09:25.560 over what platforms

00:09:27.420 are doing

00:09:28.000 in terms of content moderation.

00:09:30.040 So he's threatening

00:09:30.940 YouTube with massive fines

00:09:33.160 and even with blocking

00:09:35.360 their servers in Canada.

00:09:37.260 Could we envision

00:09:38.840 having blocking orders?

00:09:40.420 I mean, that's

00:09:41.000 that

00:09:41.540 maybe

00:09:43.320 it's not

00:09:45.800 you know, it's

00:09:46.660 it would be

00:09:48.140 it would likely be

00:09:51.080 a last result

00:09:52.560 last result

00:09:53.840 nuclear bomb

00:09:55.640 in a toolbox

00:09:57.080 of

00:09:57.640 mechanism

00:09:59.000 for a regulator.

00:10:00.400 Theoretically, it is

00:10:01.440 it is a tool

00:10:02.280 that is out there

00:10:03.520 and that could potentially

00:10:04.580 be used

00:10:05.560 but really no decisions

00:10:07.380 have been made

00:10:09.540 on that

00:10:10.520 and I would imagine

00:10:11.680 you know, this is something

00:10:12.740 you would see

00:10:13.240 as part of the regulation

00:10:15.300 most likely.

00:10:16.960 Maybe that's why

00:10:17.940 YouTube is coming

00:10:18.680 to kill us

00:10:19.300 after tolerating us

00:10:20.520 for six years.

00:10:22.500 Trudeau is about

00:10:23.140 to call an election

00:10:23.900 in Canada

00:10:24.520 where his chief critic

00:10:25.940 his censorship minister

00:10:27.580 wants to stop

00:10:28.340 taunts

00:10:28.860 criticism

00:10:29.600 you heard him

00:10:30.200 there's no law

00:10:31.700 that allows him

00:10:32.320 to do that now

00:10:33.040 so he's going to

00:10:33.580 make up a law

00:10:34.340 and he's telling YouTube

00:10:35.380 to shut us down.

00:10:36.800 That's one theory

00:10:37.780 but maybe it's just

00:10:38.880 YouTube

00:10:39.240 acting out

00:10:40.220 against a strong

00:10:41.320 conservative channel.

00:10:42.840 I mean, YouTube

00:10:43.260 is one of the most

00:10:43.900 left-wing companies

00:10:44.840 in America.

00:10:45.840 They probably didn't

00:10:46.840 need any Canadian 0.67

00:10:47.760 politician to tell

00:10:48.840 them to censor us.

00:10:50.060 It comes naturally

00:10:51.000 to them

00:10:51.480 but I'm here to say

00:10:53.580 that Rebel News

00:10:54.240 will survive

00:10:55.120 and thrive.

00:10:57.040 The very fact

00:10:58.000 that these bullies

00:10:58.700 want to shut us up

00:10:59.740 and shut us down

00:11:01.660 proves how important

00:11:03.760 our voice is.

00:11:05.840 We represent Canadians

00:11:07.360 and people around

00:11:08.260 the world

00:11:08.800 who want to hear

00:11:10.340 the other side

00:11:11.100 of the story.

00:11:12.400 We'll keep using 0.99

00:11:13.480 our YouTube channel

00:11:14.440 until they ban us

00:11:15.600 but even when they do

00:11:17.220 we will live on

00:11:18.340 on Rumble

00:11:19.220 on Odyssey

00:11:19.940 maybe another platform

00:11:21.460 maybe on our own

00:11:22.340 video platform.

00:11:23.160 You know,

00:11:23.580 we had 19 million

00:11:25.260 visits

00:11:25.880 to our

00:11:26.680 rebelnews.com

00:11:27.740 website last year

00:11:28.700 from nearly

00:11:29.180 10 million individuals.

00:11:31.400 Those people

00:11:32.280 know how to find us

00:11:33.500 whether or not

00:11:34.460 YouTube tries

00:11:35.880 to cut us off.

00:11:36.680 So we're going to

00:11:37.420 start posting

00:11:38.160 to our YouTube channel

00:11:39.460 again

00:11:39.860 because 1.45 million

00:11:42.940 beautiful people

00:11:44.240 rely on YouTube

00:11:45.180 to connect with us

00:11:46.280 and just because

00:11:47.740 YouTube is being abusive

00:11:49.140 doesn't mean that

00:11:50.600 we're going to give up

00:11:51.320 on our people

00:11:51.880 who found us

00:11:52.620 through them

00:11:53.060 but every single

00:11:54.820 YouTube video

00:11:55.520 we post in our

00:11:56.480 remaining days

00:11:57.260 or weeks

00:11:57.720 or hours here

00:11:58.680 will have an

00:11:59.740 important message

00:12:00.740 in them.

00:12:01.080 if you don't

00:12:02.060 give us

00:12:02.460 your mobile

00:12:02.920 phone number

00:12:03.660 or your email

00:12:04.500 address

00:12:04.980 by going to

00:12:05.540 rebelnews.com

00:12:06.440 and typing it in

00:12:07.240 the day will come

00:12:09.200 when we will

00:12:10.580 simply be

00:12:11.220 disappeared

00:12:11.960 by YouTube

00:12:13.200 and you may

00:12:14.260 never be able

00:12:14.880 to find us

00:12:15.480 and we'll certainly

00:12:16.100 never be able

00:12:16.600 to find you.

00:12:18.280 So do me that

00:12:19.080 one quick favor

00:12:19.720 go to

00:12:20.140 rebelnews.com

00:12:20.960 right now

00:12:21.540 I'll wait

00:12:22.580 it just takes

00:12:23.920 30 seconds

00:12:24.900 I promise

00:12:25.420 just go to

00:12:26.260 rebelnews.com

00:12:27.160 you'll see a little

00:12:28.120 pop up

00:12:28.640 it takes 30 seconds

00:12:29.780 just type in

00:12:30.460 your email

00:12:30.980 or your mobile

00:12:31.880 phone number

00:12:32.400 I promise

00:12:32.940 we'll never

00:12:33.300 give that info

00:12:33.980 to anyone else

00:12:34.740 you can unsubscribe

00:12:35.940 anytime

00:12:36.560 it's just that

00:12:37.720 when the censors

00:12:38.620 at YouTube

00:12:39.000 shut us down

00:12:39.800 we'll be able

00:12:41.440 to tell you

00:12:41.780 where to still

00:12:42.180 find us

00:12:42.860 by the way

00:12:44.340 if you're already

00:12:44.780 signed up with us

00:12:45.540 you won't see

00:12:46.000 that form

00:12:46.420 so don't worry

00:12:46.920 about it

00:12:47.500 my friends

00:12:48.880 our motto

00:12:49.320 is telling

00:12:49.740 the other side

00:12:50.320 of the story

00:12:50.860 I don't care

00:12:52.580 if that offends

00:12:53.480 Trudeau's

00:12:54.020 political censors

00:12:55.080 or YouTube's

00:12:56.660 corporate censors

00:12:57.580 we're going to

00:12:59.200 keep speaking

00:12:59.660 truth to power

00:13:00.360 we'll stay

00:13:01.740 here as long

00:13:02.380 as we can

00:13:03.120 on YouTube

00:13:03.780 but when we're

00:13:04.920 gone

00:13:05.260 we're gone

00:13:06.800 don't let

00:13:08.540 YouTube

00:13:08.940 separate us

00:13:09.900 please go to

00:13:11.320 rebelnews.com

00:13:12.100 now to give us

00:13:12.740 your details

00:13:13.400 thanks

00:13:14.880 and to hell

00:13:16.600 with the censors

00:13:17.500 in Silicon Valley

00:13:18.840 or Ottawa

00:13:19.640 long live

00:13:20.940 freedom of speech

00:13:21.820 I took the

00:13:35.240 liberty of putting

00:13:36.020 today's monologue

00:13:36.840 up on YouTube

00:13:38.020 and our other

00:13:38.820 video platforms

00:13:39.700 it's important

00:13:40.400 that as many

00:13:41.280 people out there

00:13:42.200 that we don't

00:13:42.560 know how to

00:13:42.920 contact

00:13:43.320 give us their

00:13:44.580 name

00:13:44.980 email address

00:13:45.680 mobile number

00:13:46.240 obviously if you're

00:13:46.940 watching our

00:13:48.000 Rebel News Plus

00:13:48.760 we know how to

00:13:50.000 find you

00:13:50.440 so thank you

00:13:51.240 I just want to

00:13:52.620 make sure that we

00:13:53.400 have the biggest

00:13:54.380 number of our

00:13:55.300 viewers possible

00:13:56.140 in our own hands

00:13:57.780 when YouTube

00:13:58.520 finally comes to

00:13:59.960 kill us

00:14:00.280 otherwise how do we

00:14:00.900 find them

00:14:01.400 the good news is

00:14:02.560 I think we will be

00:14:03.720 able to survive an

00:14:04.700 attack from YouTube

00:14:05.540 the last week

00:14:06.180 proves it to me

00:14:07.300 I did an interview

00:14:08.760 with Gordon Chang

00:14:09.880 as you know

00:14:10.420 he's one of the

00:14:11.220 most interesting

00:14:11.940 pundits and critics

00:14:13.420 of China

00:14:13.980 so let me show you

00:14:15.440 that video now

00:14:16.120 it's on a slightly

00:14:16.760 different subject

00:14:17.440 but really

00:14:17.980 it's pretty similar

00:14:19.520 because if China

00:14:22.020 can surveil

00:14:23.100 its population

00:14:24.020 and track people

00:14:24.960 and give them

00:14:25.360 a social credit

00:14:26.040 score

00:14:26.380 well isn't that

00:14:27.600 sort of what

00:14:28.180 YouTube is trying

00:14:28.840 to do with us

00:14:29.420 here's that

00:14:30.320 interview

00:14:30.640 one of the most

00:14:32.520 terrifying things

00:14:33.360 about modern day

00:14:34.220 China is that 0.99

00:14:35.060 it looks so

00:14:36.080 modern in some

00:14:37.000 ways more modern

00:14:38.060 than our own

00:14:38.960 lives here in

00:14:39.540 North America

00:14:40.140 everyone's got a

00:14:41.420 mobile phone

00:14:42.200 their apps are

00:14:43.100 even more advanced

00:14:43.900 than ours

00:14:44.260 TikTok

00:14:44.660 the leading

00:14:45.960 social media

00:14:46.960 app

00:14:47.340 it's a Chinese

00:14:48.100 company

00:14:48.720 and yet that

00:14:50.060 same modernity

00:14:51.260 hides the

00:14:52.760 totalitarian nature

00:14:54.240 underneath it

00:14:55.040 the surveillance

00:14:56.220 state

00:14:57.140 the thing is

00:14:58.720 many people

00:14:59.560 in Canada

00:15:00.360 including those

00:15:01.620 who immigrated

00:15:02.220 here from China

00:15:03.360 continue to use

00:15:04.900 apps that are

00:15:06.460 linked back

00:15:07.640 to that same

00:15:08.820 surveillance state

00:15:09.620 even while they're

00:15:10.300 here in Canada

00:15:11.300 that's apps

00:15:13.060 payment apps

00:15:14.140 social media

00:15:14.980 apps

00:15:15.380 news apps

00:15:16.400 but I think

00:15:17.220 things have

00:15:17.840 reached a new

00:15:18.480 level with a

00:15:19.760 popular restaurant

00:15:20.980 chain from China

00:15:22.420 that's opened up

00:15:23.060 in the Vancouver

00:15:23.720 area

00:15:24.180 the name of the

00:15:25.140 restaurant is

00:15:25.800 Heidi Lau

00:15:27.080 and in fact

00:15:28.080 we're sending our

00:15:28.860 Vancouver Bureau

00:15:29.980 Chief Drea Humphrey

00:15:31.220 to that restaurant

00:15:32.340 today to see what

00:15:33.240 she can find

00:15:33.920 but media reports

00:15:35.480 say that this

00:15:36.420 restaurant may

00:15:37.660 actually be plugged

00:15:38.720 into a larger

00:15:39.800 social credit

00:15:41.320 system which is

00:15:42.200 the name that

00:15:42.800 China gives 0.65

00:15:43.640 its surveillance

00:15:44.420 system attached

00:15:45.840 to your personal

00:15:46.680 conduct

00:15:47.300 you get points

00:15:48.220 added if you do

00:15:49.600 things the government

00:15:50.520 likes you get

00:15:51.160 points taken off

00:15:52.340 if you do things

00:15:53.460 they don't like

00:15:54.240 and it can affect

00:15:54.960 your privileges

00:15:56.060 such as those

00:15:56.760 to travel or even

00:15:57.720 get an apartment

00:15:58.380 joining us now

00:15:59.100 via Skype

00:15:59.660 is I think

00:16:00.580 North America's

00:16:01.220 leading expert

00:16:01.920 on this issue

00:16:02.800 our friend

00:16:03.900 Gordon G. Chang

00:16:05.400 you can follow

00:16:06.280 me Gordon G. Chang

00:16:07.100 on Twitter

00:16:07.560 Gordon great to see

00:16:08.380 you

00:16:08.560 we're sending

00:16:09.400 our reporter

00:16:09.940 Drea Humphrey

00:16:10.700 to this restaurant

00:16:11.760 but news reports

00:16:12.940 say that

00:16:13.500 there are 60

00:16:14.900 cameras or other

00:16:16.540 monitors in this

00:16:17.980 restaurant

00:16:18.440 and that the data

00:16:20.360 apparently is being

00:16:22.060 sent back to China

00:16:23.320 we've seen reports

00:16:25.320 on this we want to go

00:16:26.160 see for ourselves

00:16:27.200 but what do you

00:16:28.040 make of what has

00:16:29.100 been reported

00:16:29.700 so far

00:16:30.380 this is the extension

00:16:32.800 of China's surveillance

00:16:34.020 state to the rest

00:16:35.060 of the world

00:16:35.540 and yeah there's 60

00:16:36.940 cameras in a restaurant

00:16:38.120 with 30 tables

00:16:39.640 so really what

00:16:41.080 they're trying to do

00:16:41.860 is to find out

00:16:42.860 everything that's

00:16:43.700 going on

00:16:44.300 now China has

00:16:45.420 this social credit

00:16:46.140 system which you

00:16:46.840 talked about

00:16:47.420 which they're

00:16:48.000 putting together

00:16:48.600 and what it does

00:16:49.960 is it gives

00:16:50.680 every Chinese

00:16:51.440 citizen a score

00:16:52.920 and that score

00:16:54.080 is adjusted

00:16:54.920 constantly based

00:16:56.220 on observed

00:16:56.880 behaviors

00:16:57.420 so they've got

00:16:58.480 626 million

00:16:59.800 surveillance cameras

00:17:00.700 that they claim

00:17:01.460 well information

00:17:03.240 from those cameras

00:17:04.120 are fed into

00:17:04.780 the social credit

00:17:05.500 system and using

00:17:06.900 artificial intelligence

00:17:07.920 and big data

00:17:08.760 they are able

00:17:09.720 to assign

00:17:10.540 these scores

00:17:11.220 now this is China

00:17:13.040 but they're trying

00:17:13.980 to do the same

00:17:14.660 thing in elsewhere

00:17:15.960 and Canada is a

00:17:17.580 perfect place for them

00:17:18.520 because there's so

00:17:19.160 many Chinese citizens

00:17:20.520 and Chinese nationals

00:17:22.400 and they're trying

00:17:22.900 to spy on everybody

00:17:24.120 and you know

00:17:25.580 once they start

00:17:26.320 with this restaurant

00:17:27.040 chain

00:17:27.520 they're going

00:17:28.100 to go elsewhere

00:17:28.940 so this is going

00:17:30.400 to go until

00:17:31.500 we stop it

00:17:32.260 yeah

00:17:32.820 well and one of

00:17:33.960 the things that

00:17:34.440 China is very 1.00

00:17:35.060 advanced on

00:17:35.700 there's certain

00:17:36.220 aspects of artificial

00:17:37.700 intelligence

00:17:38.360 that western

00:17:39.480 companies still

00:17:40.180 have the lead

00:17:40.940 but Huawei

00:17:41.920 and other companies

00:17:43.240 in some ways

00:17:44.220 are actually

00:17:44.500 more advanced

00:17:45.280 than their western

00:17:46.620 counterparts

00:17:47.100 facial recognition

00:17:48.240 and gait recognition

00:17:50.400 G-A-I-T 1.00

00:17:51.220 how people walk

00:17:52.400 even

00:17:52.880 the little

00:17:53.640 you know

00:17:54.440 how you can

00:17:55.360 sometimes guess

00:17:56.660 who's coming

00:17:57.080 around the corner

00:17:57.660 because you

00:17:58.240 can recognize

00:17:59.280 how they walk

00:18:00.280 their footsteps

00:18:00.980 as opposed

00:18:01.520 to someone else

00:18:02.120 I mean imagine

00:18:03.620 if you visually

00:18:04.340 detect that

00:18:04.900 so these are

00:18:05.380 some of the

00:18:06.080 technologies

00:18:07.240 in which China

00:18:07.860 is very advanced

00:18:08.600 here's my point

00:18:09.560 Gordon

00:18:09.860 you might not

00:18:11.480 have anything

00:18:12.480 to do

00:18:13.300 you might not

00:18:14.040 have your cell phone

00:18:14.800 on

00:18:15.020 you might not

00:18:15.560 be in any

00:18:16.120 system

00:18:17.040 but you walk

00:18:17.740 in

00:18:18.080 if your face

00:18:19.320 is scanned

00:18:20.180 zoom

00:18:21.140 you're in

00:18:22.000 the system

00:18:22.800 they know

00:18:23.520 where you were

00:18:24.120 they know

00:18:24.560 what you ordered

00:18:25.240 they know

00:18:25.560 a credit card

00:18:26.200 you used

00:18:26.700 maybe they overheard

00:18:28.240 what you were

00:18:28.680 talking about

00:18:29.380 you're all being

00:18:30.620 sucked into the

00:18:31.500 system

00:18:31.780 I know that

00:18:32.400 sounds like

00:18:32.860 dystopian

00:18:33.540 science fiction

00:18:34.220 but I really

00:18:35.400 think that's

00:18:35.940 where we are

00:18:36.400 now

00:18:36.740 that's right

00:18:38.140 and China

00:18:38.900 by the way

00:18:39.400 people call it

00:18:40.400 authoritarian

00:18:40.980 well that's

00:18:42.020 really wrong

00:18:42.760 I think that

00:18:43.380 it's semi

00:18:44.400 totalitarian

00:18:45.200 now

00:18:45.600 and it's

00:18:46.320 heading to

00:18:46.960 full

00:18:47.300 totalitarianism

00:18:48.460 and largely

00:18:49.360 because of

00:18:49.880 this social

00:18:50.300 credit system

00:18:51.060 you talk about

00:18:52.160 artificial intelligence

00:18:53.440 people think

00:18:54.840 well you know

00:18:55.420 the West has

00:18:56.060 better AI

00:18:56.920 than China

00:18:57.540 does

00:18:57.840 but the other

00:18:58.840 thing we've

00:18:59.500 got to remember

00:19:00.160 is that AI

00:19:01.020 runs on data

00:19:02.100 and in

00:19:03.100 Western societies

00:19:03.920 there are

00:19:04.460 restrictions on

00:19:05.280 the data

00:19:05.660 that can be

00:19:06.180 fed into

00:19:06.760 these AI

00:19:07.300 systems

00:19:07.740 well there

00:19:08.840 are no such

00:19:09.320 restrictions in

00:19:10.080 China

00:19:10.320 so China's

00:19:11.120 AI could be

00:19:11.920 better than

00:19:12.460 ours

00:19:12.680 because it

00:19:13.200 has more

00:19:13.700 data

00:19:14.140 it's got

00:19:14.740 more to

00:19:15.340 chomp on

00:19:15.960 right

00:19:16.280 oh I

00:19:17.320 think you're

00:19:17.880 right

00:19:18.020 I think China 0.97

00:19:18.640 is more

00:19:19.160 advanced

00:19:19.660 in many

00:19:20.500 ways

00:19:20.980 than the

00:19:22.900 Western

00:19:23.120 counterparts

00:19:23.560 part of

00:19:24.180 it

00:19:24.380 is just

00:19:25.160 sheer

00:19:25.740 the sheer

00:19:26.700 amount of

00:19:27.000 research

00:19:27.340 industrial

00:19:27.920 espionage

00:19:28.600 against

00:19:28.920 Western

00:19:29.280 companies

00:19:29.700 and like

00:19:30.400 you say

00:19:30.660 there's

00:19:30.820 just no

00:19:31.200 privacy

00:19:31.860 limits

00:19:32.460 on it

00:19:32.820 here's

00:19:33.440 a scenario

00:19:33.980 you tell

00:19:34.380 me

00:19:34.580 if this

00:19:35.500 is

00:19:35.620 something

00:19:35.900 that

00:19:36.920 we

00:19:37.520 should

00:19:37.680 be

00:19:38.080 worried

00:19:38.340 about

00:19:38.580 there

00:19:39.240 are

00:19:39.720 many

00:19:40.540 Chinese

00:19:41.120 Canadians

00:19:41.600 or other

00:19:42.120 people

00:19:42.380 in Canada

00:19:42.880 who love

00:19:43.900 being ethnically

00:19:44.580 Chinese

00:19:45.060 love Chinese

00:19:45.760 food

00:19:46.040 love Chinese

00:19:46.600 stores

00:19:47.080 love everything

00:19:47.880 about China

00:19:48.300 except the

00:19:48.840 government

00:19:49.220 they might be

00:19:50.320 democracy

00:19:50.800 activists

00:19:51.260 they might

00:19:51.760 be from

00:19:52.320 Hong Kong

00:19:52.880 they might

00:19:53.260 be Falun Gong 0.97

00:19:53.920 whatever

00:19:54.320 but they

00:19:55.580 can be

00:19:56.080 detected

00:19:56.640 now

00:19:57.120 they can

00:19:57.560 be tracked

00:19:58.300 now

00:19:58.780 and that

00:19:59.680 information

00:20:00.140 can be

00:20:00.620 fed

00:20:01.080 to either

00:20:02.000 the

00:20:02.320 Chinese

00:20:02.760 embassies

00:20:03.300 here

00:20:03.620 or their

00:20:04.640 sort of

00:20:05.320 front groups

00:20:05.900 like

00:20:06.160 you know

00:20:07.000 the

00:20:07.200 Confucius

00:20:08.060 Institutes

00:20:08.760 or whatever

00:20:09.180 that successor

00:20:09.980 or

00:20:10.600 I don't know

00:20:11.960 it's called

00:20:12.200 the United

00:20:12.500 Patriot Front

00:20:13.160 or something

00:20:13.520 I can't recall

00:20:14.160 so this

00:20:15.300 information

00:20:15.760 can be

00:20:16.080 fed back

00:20:16.880 oh we've

00:20:17.620 detected

00:20:18.020 Falun Gong

00:20:18.700 is meeting

00:20:19.160 there

00:20:19.460 or oh

00:20:19.980 this is a

00:20:20.480 restaurant

00:20:20.900 frequented by

00:20:22.180 Hong Kong

00:20:22.800 democracy

00:20:23.360 activists

00:20:23.740 I don't know

00:20:24.420 I'm

00:20:24.640 brainstorming

00:20:25.460 here

00:20:25.700 we still

00:20:26.680 don't know

00:20:27.220 how this

00:20:27.640 is being

00:20:27.960 used

00:20:28.300 but that

00:20:28.860 is a

00:20:29.180 potential

00:20:29.600 application

00:20:30.280 am I

00:20:30.540 right

00:20:30.760 oh of

00:20:31.820 course

00:20:32.040 and it's

00:20:32.380 being done

00:20:32.760 right now

00:20:33.300 and that

00:20:33.920 information

00:20:34.360 is being

00:20:34.840 fed back

00:20:35.480 into China

00:20:36.080 where it's

00:20:36.980 collated with

00:20:37.740 all sorts

00:20:38.160 of other

00:20:38.480 information

00:20:38.960 so Beijing

00:20:39.760 wants to

00:20:40.360 know

00:20:40.540 everything

00:20:41.000 that's

00:20:41.300 going on

00:20:41.740 in the

00:20:41.960 world

00:20:42.180 and with

00:20:42.960 Huawei

00:20:43.380 servers

00:20:43.920 it's

00:20:44.780 going to

00:20:45.260 go there

00:20:45.740 to a

00:20:46.240 certain

00:20:46.420 extent

00:20:46.760 because

00:20:47.820 Huawei

00:20:48.400 servers

00:20:49.440 allow

00:20:49.880 Beijing

00:20:50.320 to

00:20:50.880 filch

00:20:51.360 information

00:20:51.920 we know

00:20:52.820 this

00:20:53.080 because

00:20:53.400 this is

00:20:53.840 not a

00:20:54.200 theoretical

00:20:54.600 concern

00:20:55.240 we know

00:20:56.120 this

00:20:56.340 because

00:20:56.660 between

00:20:57.000 2012

00:20:57.760 and 2017

00:20:58.800 China

00:20:59.820 was

00:21:00.100 surreptitiously

00:21:00.840 downloading

00:21:01.480 data

00:21:01.880 from the

00:21:02.240 headquarters

00:21:02.640 of the

00:21:03.080 African

00:21:03.460 Union

00:21:03.940 in

00:21:04.260 Addis

00:21:04.560 Ababa

00:21:04.940 because

00:21:05.580 this

00:21:05.820 building

00:21:06.100 was

00:21:06.560 donated

00:21:07.480 by

00:21:07.760 China

00:21:08.060 it

00:21:08.600 was

00:21:08.800 built

00:21:09.140 by

00:21:09.400 China

00:21:09.740 and

00:21:10.220 they

00:21:10.320 had

00:21:10.460 Huawei

00:21:10.780 servers

00:21:11.300 which

00:21:11.560 they

00:21:11.740 were

00:21:11.900 using

00:21:12.280 to

00:21:12.520 filch

00:21:12.880 all

00:21:13.040 this

00:21:13.200 data

00:21:13.540 I

00:21:15.000 was

00:21:15.320 just

00:21:15.500 reading

00:21:15.780 and

00:21:15.920 I'm

00:21:16.340 going

00:21:16.560 to

00:21:16.660 change

00:21:16.940 gears

00:21:17.240 here

00:21:17.460 a bit

00:21:17.660 but

00:21:17.800 I'm

00:21:17.920 sure

00:21:18.100 you're

00:21:18.240 on

00:21:18.360 top

00:21:18.520 of

00:21:18.620 the

00:21:18.720 story

00:21:18.920 the

00:21:19.120 Netherlands

00:21:19.740 there's

00:21:20.540 been a

00:21:20.840 series

00:21:21.120 of

00:21:21.300 stories

00:21:21.600 breaking

00:21:22.120 about

00:21:22.440 just

00:21:22.840 how

00:21:23.220 deeply

00:21:23.980 China

00:21:25.740 was

00:21:26.020 able

00:21:26.200 to

00:21:26.420 grab

00:21:26.740 pretty

00:21:27.000 much

00:21:27.180 every

00:21:27.720 phone

00:21:28.140 call

00:21:28.400 every

00:21:28.720 message

00:21:29.160 in the

00:21:29.560 whole

00:21:29.840 of the

00:21:30.100 Netherlands

00:21:30.440 including

00:21:31.000 political

00:21:31.540 calls

00:21:32.120 including

00:21:32.800 police

00:21:33.340 including

00:21:33.780 dissidents

00:21:34.920 Netherlands

00:21:37.540 isn't the

00:21:38.200 first place

00:21:38.680 that comes

00:21:39.040 to mind

00:21:39.400 when I

00:21:39.660 think

00:21:39.800 of a

00:21:40.000 place

00:21:40.300 to

00:21:40.520 target

00:21:40.880 for

00:21:41.120 China

00:21:41.420 but

00:21:41.920 really

00:21:42.160 when

00:21:42.420 you're

00:21:42.660 putting

00:21:42.860 in

00:21:43.060 the

00:21:43.180 backbone

00:21:43.680 the

00:21:43.940 internet

00:21:44.340 backbone

00:21:44.920 for

00:21:45.220 the

00:21:45.360 5G

00:21:45.760 system

00:21:46.180 the

00:21:47.200 whole

00:21:47.420 world

00:21:47.760 is

00:21:47.980 your

00:21:48.180 oyster

00:21:48.560 you

00:21:48.880 can

00:21:49.100 spy

00:21:49.360 on

00:21:49.520 everyone

00:21:49.820 and

00:21:50.000 everything

00:21:50.320 that's

00:21:50.660 the

00:21:50.740 whole

00:21:50.860 point

00:21:51.120 isn't

00:21:51.340 it

00:21:52.180 yeah

00:21:52.460 and

00:21:53.100 that

00:21:53.540 Dutch

00:21:54.160 telecom

00:21:54.640 company

00:21:55.140 KPN

00:21:55.720 I

00:21:55.940 think

00:21:56.220 didn't

00:21:57.760 tell

00:21:57.980 people

00:21:58.300 because

00:21:58.520 it

00:21:58.680 was

00:21:58.840 afraid

00:21:59.340 of

00:21:59.560 what

00:21:59.720 would

00:21:59.900 happen

00:22:00.300 if

00:22:00.680 it

00:22:00.840 disclosed

00:22:01.600 the

00:22:01.920 extent

00:22:02.420 of

00:22:02.660 China's 0.76

00:22:03.040 ability

00:22:03.400 to

00:22:03.700 surveil

00:22:04.280 the

00:22:04.980 Netherlands

00:22:05.280 and

00:22:05.700 this

00:22:05.880 included

00:22:06.420 the

00:22:07.480 cell

00:22:07.840 phones

00:22:08.240 of

00:22:08.740 the

00:22:09.200 Dutch

00:22:09.440 leaders

00:22:09.760 so

00:22:10.620 there

00:22:11.400 really

00:22:11.600 wasn't

00:22:11.920 anything

00:22:12.180 safe

00:22:12.580 here

00:22:12.860 well

00:22:13.760 let me

00:22:14.200 ask

00:22:14.440 you

00:22:14.540 this

00:22:14.700 because

00:22:14.880 I

00:22:15.140 know

00:22:15.540 you

00:22:16.300 have

00:22:16.540 a

00:22:16.800 tremendous

00:22:17.300 breadth

00:22:17.700 to

00:22:17.900 the

00:22:18.100 subjects

00:22:18.420 you

00:22:18.600 follow

00:22:18.840 but

00:22:19.020 I

00:22:19.280 would

00:22:19.460 say

00:22:20.000 that

00:22:20.160 in

00:22:20.280 terms

00:22:20.520 of

00:22:20.660 America

00:22:21.220 China

00:22:21.640 relations

00:22:22.100 that

00:22:22.420 that's

00:22:22.900 something

00:22:23.100 I

00:22:23.260 know

00:22:23.360 you

00:22:23.480 focus

00:22:23.800 on

00:22:23.960 very

00:22:24.160 keenly

00:22:24.660 Donald

00:22:26.060 Trump

00:22:26.420 really

00:22:26.740 tried

00:22:27.020 to

00:22:27.200 change

00:22:27.840 the

00:22:28.480 China

00:22:28.820 US

00:22:29.180 relationship

00:22:29.780 and

00:22:30.100 in

00:22:30.240 many

00:22:30.440 ways

00:22:30.700 he

00:22:30.880 succeeded

00:22:31.360 I've

00:22:32.400 been

00:22:32.560 worried

00:22:33.000 that

00:22:33.320 Joe

00:22:33.560 Biden

00:22:33.920 might

00:22:34.200 backtrack

00:22:34.800 on a

00:22:35.180 number

00:22:35.480 of

00:22:35.660 things

00:22:36.040 can

00:22:36.760 you

00:22:36.940 give

00:22:37.220 us

00:22:37.580 a

00:22:37.880 clear

00:22:38.260 eyed

00:22:38.780 review

00:22:39.240 of

00:22:39.780 the

00:22:39.920 first

00:22:40.180 few

00:22:40.400 months

00:22:40.700 of

00:22:40.860 Joe

00:22:41.040 Biden's

00:22:41.380 administration

00:22:42.020 is

00:22:43.260 there

00:22:43.380 anything

00:22:43.720 you're

00:22:44.080 glad

00:22:44.460 he

00:22:44.720 has

00:22:45.160 done

00:22:45.560 or

00:22:45.900 anything

00:22:46.260 he's

00:22:46.600 kept

00:22:46.980 from

00:22:47.640 the

00:22:47.820 Trump

00:22:48.060 times

00:22:48.460 that

00:22:48.700 may

00:22:48.900 be

00:22:49.000 surprised

00:22:49.480 or

00:22:49.640 impressed

00:22:50.000 you

00:22:50.260 and

00:22:50.740 is

00:22:50.860 there

00:22:50.960 anything

00:22:51.220 he's

00:22:51.460 done

00:22:51.620 towards

00:22:51.940 China

00:22:52.260 that

00:22:52.480 you're

00:22:52.680 really

00:22:52.880 worried

00:22:53.280 about

00:22:53.620 that

00:22:53.800 he's

00:22:53.940 giving

00:22:54.160 things

00:22:54.400 away

00:22:54.760 yeah

00:22:56.600 first

00:22:57.140 of all

00:22:57.420 he's

00:22:57.820 been

00:22:58.140 relatively

00:22:58.740 good

00:22:59.000 on

00:22:59.180 Taiwan

00:22:59.660 and

00:23:00.340 the

00:23:00.520 Philippines

00:23:00.980 you

00:23:02.320 know

00:23:02.440 China

00:23:02.720 has

00:23:02.920 been

00:23:03.060 trying

00:23:03.280 to

00:23:03.460 seize

00:23:03.680 Wits and

00:23:04.120 Reef

00:23:04.380 from

00:23:04.800 Manila

00:23:05.320 this

00:23:06.220 is

00:23:06.380 in

00:23:06.500 the

00:23:06.620 South

00:23:06.800 China

00:23:07.080 Sea

00:23:07.400 and

00:23:08.400 it

00:23:08.760 looks

00:23:09.000 like

00:23:09.440 China's 0.76

00:23:10.340 presence

00:23:10.760 and

00:23:11.100 they

00:23:11.240 did

00:23:11.420 this

00:23:11.640 by

00:23:11.960 assembling

00:23:13.520 about

00:23:13.880 220

00:23:14.480 fishing

00:23:15.100 trawlers

00:23:15.600 their

00:23:15.880 their marine

00:23:16.880 militia

00:23:17.760 that

00:23:18.960 size

00:23:20.000 of

00:23:20.280 the

00:23:20.540 Chinese

00:23:21.320 presence

00:23:21.760 has

00:23:22.100 dramatically

00:23:22.880 decreased

00:23:23.600 and

00:23:24.300 largely

00:23:24.580 because

00:23:25.200 the

00:23:25.560 Biden

00:23:25.900 administration

00:23:26.540 has

00:23:26.860 sent

00:23:27.200 the

00:23:27.520 Theodore

00:23:27.840 Roosevelt

00:23:28.260 which

00:23:28.640 is

00:23:28.760 a

00:23:28.920 U.S.

00:23:29.740 carrier

00:23:30.040 and its

00:23:30.680 strike group

00:23:31.440 plus

00:23:31.780 some

00:23:32.060 other

00:23:32.280 vessels

00:23:32.840 and so

00:23:34.060 that

00:23:34.280 seems

00:23:34.700 to have

00:23:35.200 at least

00:23:35.880 moved

00:23:36.200 the situation

00:23:36.800 in the

00:23:37.320 right

00:23:37.500 direction

00:23:37.920 but this

00:23:38.580 is a

00:23:39.080 never

00:23:39.540 ending

00:23:39.940 battle

00:23:40.400 you know

00:23:41.180 in terms

00:23:41.780 of trying

00:23:42.240 to go

00:23:42.680 after

00:23:42.940 Huawei

00:23:43.360 and

00:23:43.920 Chinese

00:23:44.440 supercomputer

00:23:45.000 companies

00:23:45.780 Biden's

00:23:46.860 done a

00:23:47.100 good job

00:23:47.580 in

00:23:47.820 extending

00:23:48.520 sanctions

00:23:49.100 there's

00:23:49.740 some

00:23:49.920 things

00:23:50.180 though

00:23:50.360 that are

00:23:50.640 really

00:23:50.920 horrible

00:23:51.380 and the

00:23:52.080 thing

00:23:52.220 we've

00:23:52.460 got to

00:23:52.800 really

00:23:53.200 be

00:23:53.440 concerned

00:23:53.780 about

00:23:54.140 is

00:23:54.700 what's

00:23:55.080 going

00:23:55.340 to

00:23:55.580 occur

00:23:56.120 tomorrow

00:23:56.920 and

00:23:57.340 Friday

00:23:57.740 and that

00:23:58.220 is

00:23:58.560 the

00:23:58.860 climate

00:23:59.320 summit

00:23:59.660 that

00:23:59.980 President

00:24:00.320 Biden's

00:24:00.860 hosting

00:24:01.180 to coincide

00:24:01.900 with

00:24:02.080 Earth Day

00:24:02.640 we

00:24:04.100 we have

00:24:04.380 we have

00:24:04.400 this

00:24:04.640 whole

00:24:05.140 notion

00:24:05.880 that we

00:24:06.280 should

00:24:06.520 make

00:24:06.760 concessions

00:24:07.280 to

00:24:07.480 China

00:24:07.780 in order

00:24:08.300 to get

00:24:08.760 their

00:24:09.260 increased

00:24:09.760 pledges

00:24:10.220 on

00:24:10.420 climate

00:24:10.840 that

00:24:11.540 is

00:24:11.740 really

00:24:12.260 going

00:24:12.720 to

00:24:12.940 I

00:24:13.140 think

00:24:13.400 sink 0.52

00:24:13.780 Biden

00:24:14.360 China

00:24:14.720 policy

00:24:15.200 or

00:24:15.400 at least

00:24:15.620 it

00:24:15.740 has

00:24:15.880 the

00:24:16.000 potential

00:24:16.340 of

00:24:16.600 doing

00:24:16.820 so

00:24:17.140 because

00:24:17.760 the

00:24:18.020 administration

00:24:18.800 officials

00:24:19.280 have

00:24:19.500 the

00:24:19.660 wrong

00:24:19.900 mindset

00:24:20.340 when

00:24:20.620 it

00:24:20.760 comes

00:24:20.980 to

00:24:21.160 China

00:24:21.420 and

00:24:21.820 that's

00:24:22.060 of

00:24:22.260 course

00:24:22.480 an

00:24:22.660 extended

00:24:23.040 conversation

00:24:23.620 but

00:24:23.820 we've

00:24:24.040 got

00:24:24.140 to

00:24:24.240 be

00:24:24.360 concerned

00:24:24.660 about

00:24:24.900 what

00:24:25.080 they're

00:24:25.240 going

00:24:25.360 to

00:24:32.640 well

00:24:32.780 Gordon

00:24:33.120 I'd

00:24:33.300 say

00:24:33.400 we

00:24:34.020 so

00:24:38.460 show

00:24:38.620 if you

00:24:38.900 want

00:24:39.240 to

00:24:40.980 with

00:24:41.600 clear

00:24:42.120 eyed

00:24:42.480 thinking

00:24:42.900 about

00:24:43.700 the

00:24:44.300 relationship

00:24:45.320 between

00:24:45.660 China

00:24:45.920 and the

00:24:56.160 wouldn't

00:26:04.120 a

00:26:04.260 surfboarder

00:26:05.460 himself

00:26:15.920 made the

00:26:16.360 deliberate

00:26:18.620 enhance

00:26:19.380 police officers

00:26:20.220 authority

00:26:20.720 for the

00:26:21.160 duration

00:26:21.560 of the

00:26:21.880 stay-at-home

00:26:22.360 order

00:26:22.660 moving

00:26:23.860 forward

00:26:24.420 police will

00:26:25.520 have the

00:26:25.920 authority

00:26:26.320 to require

00:26:34.840 provide

00:26:35.340 their

00:26:35.540 home

00:26:35.760 address

00:26:36.280 the

00:26:55.180 cops

00:26:55.460 came

00:26:55.880 they

00:26:56.460 asked

00:26:56.720 to

00:26:56.800 put

00:26:56.920 their

00:26:57.000 masks

00:26:57.320 up

00:26:57.580 we

00:26:57.980 did

00:26:58.160 that

00:26:58.500 few

00:26:58.860 people

00:26:59.120 didn't

00:26:59.500 because

00:26:59.660 they

00:26:59.720 didn't

00:26:59.840 have

00:26:59.960 a

00:27:00.100 mask

00:27:00.460 they

00:27:01.320 didn't

00:27:01.560 have

00:27:01.720 a

00:27:01.860 mask

00:27:02.320 cops

00:27:03.140 started

00:27:03.400 like

00:27:03.600 pushing

00:27:03.900 up

00:27:04.100 on

00:27:04.280 him

00:27:04.460 asking

00:27:04.840 for

00:27:05.080 ID

00:27:05.380 he's

00:27:05.700 a

00:27:05.800 12

00:27:06.100 year

00:27:06.240 old

00:27:06.400 kid

00:27:06.660 you

00:27:06.820 know

00:27:07.020 he

00:27:07.740 doesn't

00:27:07.980 he

00:27:08.160 wouldn't

00:27:08.400 have

00:27:10.640 whatsoever

00:27:11.000 no

00:27:11.340 I

00:27:11.740 think

00:27:12.380 the

00:27:12.540 officers

00:27:12.820 should

00:27:13.040 be

00:29:59.760 brutal

00:30:00.520 stuff

00:30:01.260 an excessive

00:30:01.740 amount

00:30:02.060 of force

00:30:02.500 so

00:30:03.140 did they

00:30:03.660 end up

00:30:03.940 taking him

00:30:04.400 away

00:30:08.100 property

00:30:08.480 they

00:30:13.820 his mom

00:30:14.220 came

00:30:14.540 and then

00:31:02.340 a lot

00:31:02.720 of

00:31:02.840 people

00:31:03.120 come

00:31:03.960 around

00:31:04.240 here

00:31:04.440 to

00:31:04.620 like

00:31:04.980 try

00:31:05.720 to

00:31:06.020 get

00:31:07.080 out

00:31:07.360 stuff

00:31:08.000 like

00:31:08.180 that

00:31:08.540 and

00:31:09.000 with

00:31:09.140 it

00:31:09.240 closed

00:31:09.620 it's

00:31:13.160 we have

00:31:13.660 our

00:31:13.820 bikes

00:31:14.220 and

00:31:14.420 scooters

00:31:14.780 and

00:31:14.940 we

00:31:15.740 learn

00:31:15.940 new

00:31:16.120 tricks

00:31:16.360 to

00:31:16.520 come

00:31:16.720 here

00:31:16.920 like

00:31:17.400 and

00:31:18.540 we

00:31:18.700 come

00:31:18.860 with

00:31:19.000 our

00:31:19.140 buddies

00:31:19.400 and

00:31:19.560 stuff

00:31:19.800 like

00:31:20.080 distance

00:31:20.660 pretty

00:31:21.020 much

00:31:21.320 because

00:31:21.780 we're

00:31:21.960 riding

00:31:22.220 in the

00:31:22.440 park

00:31:22.700 yeah

00:31:23.620 so

00:31:24.240 you guys

00:31:24.540 when you guys

00:31:25.400 are at the skate park

00:31:26.100 everyone's kind of doing their own thing

00:31:27.480 right for the most part you guys are able to social distance

00:31:29.880 yeah

00:31:30.180 exactly

00:31:30.520 you know

00:31:30.820 outside

00:31:31.320 and fresh air

00:31:31.980 so it doesn't make sense that they would shut

00:31:33.660 something down like this

00:31:35.440 especially when it's one of the few outlets you guys have

00:31:37.780 to do

00:31:38.560 yeah

00:31:39.940 because there's nothing to do really

00:31:40.960 in green or stuff

00:31:41.660 for going to the skate park and the trails and stuff

00:31:43.640 somebody attacked a kid for being in a playground

00:31:47.600 i

00:31:48.480 no

00:31:48.760 i feel very bad

00:31:49.920 i feel very very bad

00:31:51.280 i

00:31:52.000 um

00:31:52.360 i probably shouldn't say what i'm feeling

00:31:54.760 it

00:31:56.000 it doesn't matter

00:31:56.900 if the kid refused to identify himself

00:31:59.780 if he was swearing at the police

00:32:01.380 whatever the case may be

00:32:02.540 is there any excuse for that kind of enforcement on a

00:32:04.940 on a basically a child

00:32:05.860 no

00:32:06.740 no there's no excuse

00:32:07.680 no excuse whatsoever

00:32:08.520 no

00:32:08.880 i i i think the officers should be fired from the force

00:32:11.480 and and removed immediately

00:32:13.040 there's no

00:32:13.860 no

00:32:14.420 no

00:32:15.100 absolutely

00:32:15.980 no

00:32:16.500 i can't i can't stress enough

00:32:17.940 the officer had no right to do

00:32:19.740 any of that

00:32:20.700 at any time

00:32:21.640 no

00:32:22.580 i'm sorry

00:32:23.860 i'm sorry

00:32:24.700 so on friday we saw new measures come into effect

00:32:28.380 regarding the enforcement of covid19

00:32:30.420 that provides police officers with enhanced authority

00:32:33.700 to enforce ontario's stay-at-home order

00:32:36.540 so this includes police officers having the ability to require

00:32:40.920 any person to provide their home address

00:32:44.220 and purpose for not being at their residence

00:32:46.960 do you think that this altercation is a result of these new measures

00:32:50.180 or is it just the case of a bad cop

00:32:52.300 at least a dozen police forces refuse to follow that order

00:32:56.420 because it's unconstitutional

00:32:57.720 so that if there's something wrong with the police force

00:33:00.780 or if there's just something wrong with that police officer

00:33:02.720 i don't know from what i saw there's something wrong with that police officer

00:33:06.960 maybe i should

00:33:07.520 i i don't know what's going on

00:33:09.480 i i don't

00:33:10.220 i feel like i'm in minneapolis right now

00:33:12.200 i feel like i feel like i'm in minneapolis

00:33:14.200 and and it's a child

00:33:15.420 it's a child

00:33:16.220 and it's a playground

00:33:16.880 it's it's wrong

00:33:18.480 it's just wrong

00:33:19.440 sorry

00:33:20.100 it's just

00:33:20.860 no

00:33:21.600 the the police forces themselves said it was wrong

00:33:24.460 and and doug ford

00:33:25.820 or whatever his name is

00:33:27.000 rescinded it

00:33:27.940 no

00:33:28.920 i can't

00:33:30.580 how many times do i have to say no

00:33:31.760 it was wrong

00:33:32.300 police officers should be removed from the force immediately

00:33:34.920 not with pay

00:33:35.700 not put on desk duty

00:33:36.800 just you don't throw a kid on the ground for that

00:33:39.100 sorry

00:33:40.020 the ontario provincial police have stated that they are investigating the video

00:33:45.400 an official statement from the opp reads

00:33:48.360 officers stopped to speak to a group of young people

00:33:51.080 none of whom were wearing masks or social distancing

00:33:53.880 officers attempted to interact with the youths

00:33:56.880 which led to a physical confrontation between one officer and one young person

00:34:01.280 i reached out to two lawyers from the department of justice that represents the ontario provincial police

00:34:06.320 with a couple of questions

00:34:07.440 what happened before the video started that caused the officer's reaction

00:34:11.780 what was the child's alleged infraction

00:34:14.480 was the child issued any tickets or summons

00:34:18.100 what is the officer's name that is involved in the incident

00:34:22.060 has he been the subject of disciplinary action before

00:34:25.240 i've yet to receive a response for that email
