The Candice Malcolm Show - Canadians want more EVIDENCE on unmarked graves + Juno's 6 month anniversary (feat. Keean Bexte)

00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Candice Malcolm and this is the Candice Malcolm Show. We have a great episode for

00:00:05.960 you today, folks. Kian Bextie, my co-founder here at Juno News, is joining us in just a

00:00:10.440 few minutes. And guess what, folks? Today is the six-month anniversary since we launched

00:00:14.500 this organization, Juno News, since Kian Bextie from Countersignal and myself from True North

00:00:18.460 teamed up together to launch a new free speech news outlet focused on fact-based journalism

00:00:24.000 and telling the truth. It has been an incredible ride so far. So we're going to go through

00:00:28.940 some of the highlights. And folks, this episode is brought to you by ExpressVPN, but more on

00:00:34.720 them a little bit later. I want to tell you about this new survey that was put out today

00:00:39.520 by Angus Reid talking about one of what I think is one of the most important issues in the

00:00:43.820 country, which is the story of the unmarked graves, the alleged unmarked graves that were

00:00:48.180 allegedly discovered in Kamloos back in 2021. You can draw a straight line from that announcement,

00:00:55.000 that bombshell, the absolutely hyperbolic, over-exaggerated media claims, sort of calling

00:01:01.040 them mass graves. And then all of a sudden we had to say that Canada had committed genocide,

00:01:05.680 making all kinds of unfounded accusations against our country. You can draw a straight

00:01:08.980 line to that and some of the craziness that is unfolding today, including the story I mentioned

00:01:13.740 yesterday about a judge ruling that private property had become First Nations property. I'm

00:01:18.640 going to talk about that again in just a few minutes. But first, I want to go through

00:01:22.020 this Angus Reid story because it is really interesting and I think it's really good news

00:01:26.500 for us here at Juno News and for the truth in Canada. Two-thirds of Canadians, according

00:01:30.920 to this study, want additional evidence before accepting that soil anomalies represent unmarked

00:01:37.540 graves at Kamloos School. So this is something that they wouldn't have even asked but wouldn't 0.68

00:01:41.220 have even talked about a few years ago and you can really see how the country has shifted.

00:01:46.060 In fact, when you take a closer look, you ask Canadians which one is closer to your view.

00:01:50.400 So in the blue, 37 percent accept the claim that this is evidence of unmarked graves even

00:01:56.120 if no further information is offered 37 percent, which folks, I still think that number is way

00:02:00.980 too high. 37 percent of people are willing to accept that priests and nuns and school teachers

00:02:06.840 were murdering children and clandestinely burying them in mass graves at residential schools and

00:02:12.300 they don't want any more evidence. They just believe that claim and they're happy with it and

00:02:16.300 they just want to believe First Nations claims and move on. But the more kind of optimistic side,

00:02:22.020 the thing that makes me feel confident and happy, is that 67 percent of Canadians say,

00:02:26.020 I don't think so. They say, we will only accept this claim if further information is publicly

00:02:31.680 available through verified and verified through an excavation. So we will not believe that there

00:02:36.940 are mass graves at residential schools unless we find human reins and evidence. So let's treat

00:02:41.800 these as a criminal investigation rather than just a political claim, which is basically what's

00:02:46.600 happened so far. When you take a closer look at the regional breakdown, you can see that the number

00:02:51.740 of people who are skeptical and want more evidence is highest in the prairies, 74 percent in Alberta,

00:02:55.980 72 percent in Saskatchewan, 75 percent in Manitoba. In British Columbia, I guess it's just pretty much

00:03:02.000 a Canadian average. 64 percent say that they want more evidence. 36 percent say believe the claims.

00:03:06.700 And interestingly, out in Quebec, you see the highest number of people saying just accept the

00:03:13.480 claim without evidence. 45 percent and 55 percent say that they want more. Not surprisingly, the gender 0.99

00:03:20.040 breakdown here is such that women are more likely to believe a claim without evidence and just say, 0.64

00:03:25.620 like, it's my truth or it's their truth. Let's just believe their truth, basically. So you can see

00:03:29.740 young women in particularly. This is the only demographic in the country that the people who just say believe

00:03:35.580 their truth, 56 percent, whereas only 44 percent want more evidence. With older women, you get a little 0.75

00:03:41.840 bit more sensibility. And you can see with the men, it's really lopsided. Even young men, 37 percent

00:03:48.720 want to believe their truth. And 67 percent want more evidence. For 35 to 54, it's only 27 percent versus

00:03:57.120 73 percent say we want more evidence. And the same for older men. Now, interestingly, the next question

00:04:04.560 they asked, three in five Canadians, 62 percent, opposed making residential school denialism a

00:04:09.540 criminal offense. And basically, it's even more damning. Look, the idea that you would criminalize

00:04:17.680 speech. So just asking questions about residential school, doing the kind of journalism that we do

00:04:21.500 here at Journal News RA that I do on the Candace Malcolm Show frequently, or someone like Professor

00:04:25.900 Frances Whittowson and their book that they put together, Grave Error, she's been going, and just

00:04:30.860 basically telling the truth and talking about what evidence actually exists, giving a historical

00:04:36.200 recount of what the Indian residential schools were actually like. Basically, this new law that's

00:04:41.280 being proposed by the NDP banning residential school denialism would make what she's doing a crime, 1.00

00:04:46.620 would make what I'm doing a crime. Our book, Grave Error, they specifically cite this book as an

00:04:51.640 example of so-called residential school denialism. And so whether Canadians actually support this,

00:04:58.200 you know, the way that the survey says, it says 62 percent opposed. But it's actually much more than

00:05:02.920 that, because you always have 15 percent or so of people that just don't know, they're not familiar

00:05:06.480 enough with the issue. And so if you look at the actual number of people who would be in favor of,

00:05:12.700 you know, making something like this illegal, saying you cannot talk about this kind of thing,

00:05:18.320 you get like 8 percent, 10 percent of Canadians, again, plus 16. So maybe like 25 percent of Canadians,

00:05:24.480 which, again, is still too high. It's still too high. One in four Canadians want to ban speech,

00:05:28.400 basically. But the fact that the majority of the country is saying the other thing, I think it's

00:05:33.000 good news. This is why Juneau News exists, folks. We exist in part because of stories like the unmarked

00:05:38.460 grave. I think it's a hoax. I know Francis Whittowson just thinks it's media deception, that it's not

00:05:43.440 necessarily a hoax because there's no one necessarily behind it pushing it. I do think that a lot of the

00:05:48.360 bans that came out and claimed to have discovered unmarked graves and bodies, they knew that they

00:05:53.740 didn't actually have evidence and they went with it anyway. So I would consider that a hoax and

00:05:58.300 certainly a lot of members in the media that continue to push this story without the facts.

00:06:02.380 We exposed Jordan Tucker of the CBC doing exactly that. And Francis Whittowson had it on tape. I

00:06:08.120 encourage you to go check out that episode and go listen to that. I want to respond to something

00:06:13.380 from our show yesterday. So yesterday we talked about this absolute bombshell BC Supreme Court case

00:06:19.100 that ruled that 800 acres of land in Richmond, British Columbia belongs to the Cowichan First

00:06:26.760 Nations. Basically this land, which is industrial land, it's partially crown land, partially owned by

00:06:30.780 the government, and also some private property that the land titles are invalid. This is what the

00:06:36.660 judge ruled, that the land titles invalid and defective. And therefore it actually rightfully

00:06:43.540 belongs to the Cowichan tribe just based on oral history. The tribe said that they went there

00:06:48.240 and they did fishing expositions and that's where they caught salmon in the summer. And the court

00:06:52.740 case was going on for five years, the longest court case in Canadian history. And the judge ruled that

00:06:58.440 the land actually belongs to the First Nations. Now I did my show about it. I talked about how this is

00:07:03.160 an absolute threat to everything that we believe in our country, right? Our country is founded on

00:07:09.160 private properties. I tend to believe that private property and freedom are intrinsically linked. You

00:07:14.420 cannot be free if you don't have the right to your property fundamentally. I think that's part of the

00:07:19.140 biggest problem with First Nations. In Canada, they don't have the same level of prosperity that you and

00:07:24.460 I can achieve because they don't have the same private property rights. Private property is so

00:07:28.780 important. And so when you have a judge ruling, as this judge did in British Columbia, Judge Barbara

00:07:34.540 Young, who, by the way, one of my viewers pointed out, was appointed by Stephen Harper. Stephen Harper,

00:07:39.040 the conservative prime minister, one of his biggest failings as a prime minister is his

00:07:42.700 appointments, his legal appointments. I'm a fan of Stephen Harper. I used to work at his government.

00:07:47.020 I think he did a lot right. But his judicial appointments were atrocious. And so this is

00:07:52.280 one example of that Barbara Young. Now, I will note that there are a couple of, there's been a couple 0.67

00:07:57.520 of pieces and people pushing back against what I claimed in my show yesterday. Notably, Terry Glavin

00:08:04.360 in the National Post, his highlight says a better response to B.C.'s Cowichan land ruling calmed down. So he

00:08:09.940 basically says this isn't really about private property. I know that the folks over at Northern

00:08:13.980 Perspective likewise did a fact check. Fact check, did B.C. Supreme Court steal private land and give

00:08:19.400 it to First Nations? Here's the truth. Look, I disagree with Ryan and Tanya on this one, and I'm happy to 1.00

00:08:24.260 have them on my show. So Ryan, if you're watching, come on the Candace Malcolm show and we will debate

00:08:27.980 this because I think that this is an absolutely dangerous precedent. And it says right here in the

00:08:34.200 judge's ruling that this will only affect private property when the property is sold. So here,

00:08:43.060 right here from the Globe Mail story, there are some privately held properties, but lawyers involved

00:08:46.100 in the case say that if the ruling stands, that land would not be affected until it was sold. So

00:08:51.960 until it's sold. I never said that they're going to get kicked off their land today or that's going

00:08:56.100 to happen now. But obviously, if you own a property and the government suddenly says that your title

00:09:01.000 is invalid and effective, and when you sell it, you're not going to have the title anymore or the

00:09:07.260 person who's buying it from you. I mean, the value is gone. So you've lost your nest egg. You've lost

00:09:11.160 your whatever you're planning for retirement or to give to your children as inheritance. You've lost

00:09:16.340 the value of your private property is incredibly dangerous precedent. It is incredibly dangerous that

00:09:21.160 a judge can do this based on oral history. Again, Justice Young wrote in her declaration that this will

00:09:28.300 change a long established status quo and have significant impact for those involved with the

00:09:35.220 lands. So not saying that anyone's going to get kicked off their lands. I'm not saying that this

00:09:39.320 is like a South African situation where someone is going to come and kick you off your land and take

00:09:44.220 it. But that is the direction that we're headed. That is definitely the direction that we're headed.

00:09:48.520 And it's a bit complicated. I'm from British Columbia. I still have many family members over there.

00:09:53.300 And so I know that there are lots of places in British Columbia that are on what they call 99

00:09:57.760 year leases, right? So it's a leasehold property, not a freehold property. If it's a freehold property,

00:10:01.600 you own it for unclear. If it's a leasehold, there's a set 99 year lease. And then you have

00:10:05.880 however much time is left on that lease. And ultimately would be up to the band to decide

00:10:10.500 whether they would renew it or not at the end of that. And so if you bought something as a freehold,

00:10:15.480 and then suddenly the government changes it to a leasehold, obviously that impacts the value

00:10:19.240 of your property. And it is a scary, scary concept. The idea that a judge can determine

00:10:23.720 to take away your property in a free and democratic society means that that country isn't very free

00:10:28.180 and very democratic anymore. Okay, folks, I want to bring on Key and Bexie. But before I do,

00:10:33.600 I would like to thank the sponsor of today's show. This is a new sponsor. Very excited to have them

00:10:37.640 express VPN. So Justin Trudeau laid the groundwork, but now with Carney in charge,

00:10:42.500 it feels like the government's getting bolder about deciding what you're allowed to see online.

00:10:46.520 News stories disappear from social media, content gets blocked, and it's all framed

00:10:50.460 as safety and regulation. But really, it's about control. You and I both know that. That's why

00:10:55.420 I use ExpressVPN. It lets me get around those blocks and access the internet like a free person,

00:11:00.540 not just whatever Ottawa decides is acceptable for me to see. You can do the same. So go visit

00:11:22.840 Kian Bexie. Kian, welcome to the show.

00:11:26.040 Thanks for having me.

00:11:27.080 And happy anniversary, man. It's been six months. I didn't get you any chocolate or any flowers,

00:11:31.140 but it's been a fun ride so far. So what stands out for you so far six months in?

00:11:36.060 Well, I would be remiss to not mention the election. Any of our viewers will remember the impact that we

00:11:45.340 had. We covered, I think, tons of really, really interesting content back then. And I think that

00:11:53.040 was our first or second month of operation. And we had close to 8 million views in the month of the

00:12:02.880 election, which is just insane numbers. Like that, that eclipses a lot of the mainstream media in

00:12:09.600 terms of what they're able to get. But it speaks to why we do this. One, because we are having a huge

00:12:15.400 impact. We're able to inform Canadians when the mainstream media fails to do so. When they try to

00:12:21.400 sweep things under the rug or lie about them, worst case scenario, we come in with the truth.

00:12:27.280 It's uncensored, unfiltered, and it's honest. And sometimes it doesn't, you know, it doesn't make people

00:12:33.080 feel good. It doesn't, it doesn't hold any punches. And we always like to punch up here. But it's got to be

00:12:41.500 done. And people, I mean, the numbers speak for themselves. When, when people are, when, you know, I think we are

00:12:48.720 the largest independent news network in the country now, we're growing so quickly. And it speaks to

00:12:55.220 how valuable of a service Juno News is providing to Canadians right now.

00:13:01.620 Well, a hundred percent. And I remember, I agree with you, 8 million was incredible during the

00:13:05.660 election. But Kian, I looked at it just this morning to see what our views were like on our

00:13:09.940 website. And, you know, you think it's the summer, it's kind of slow. Most people are kind of not as

00:13:14.360 engaged in political news as they might be when the House is in session or during election.

00:13:19.340 In just the last 30 days, so the second half of July, first half of August, we've had 10.2 million

00:13:24.900 visitors on our, on our website. So Juno has continued to grow, continue to have a big influence.

00:13:31.780 I think we are the biggest in terms of subscription. And it's kind of funny, Kian, because I know that when

00:13:36.700 you and I first started discussing the possibility of a merger or working together, we were kind of

00:13:41.460 imagining that there would be a Pierre Polly of government and that potentially he would be

00:13:46.220 defunding the CBC. And we were talking about how Canadians need an alternative, right? If CBC is

00:13:50.400 going to get defunded, they'll probably disappear or at least get very diminished because they don't

00:13:54.900 really have a good business case. And so where are Canadians going to get their news? Where are they

00:13:58.560 going to get their fact-based journalism from? And that's what we wanted to provide. Things have

00:14:02.680 obviously changed. I mean, I think that President Donald Trump, with the tariffs and the 51st state

00:14:07.460 rhetoric really threw a curveball into the Canadian election. The election did not go the way that I

00:14:12.780 wanted it. I don't think you were happy with the results. And so here we are, you know, we live to

00:14:18.160 fight another day. And I think that independent media is even more important when we are facing sort of

00:14:24.540 the liberal tyranny that we live under, where we just have, you know, governments that believe in

00:14:30.220 censoring the internet, governments believe in government-funded journalism, like totally the

00:14:36.300 antithesis of what Canada is supposed to stand for, right? We still have mass migration. We still 0.99

00:14:42.520 have deception around First Nations and the history of our country being rewritten. You know, there's so 1.00

00:14:48.680 many problems that were created under Trudeau, and we sort of see a continuation under Mark Carney.

00:14:55.860 How do you think that changes the job that you and I do on a daily basis?

00:15:00.220 Well, when I was imagining a peer government, I was looking at it from the perspective of pulling

00:15:06.960 him to the right and making sure that he didn't think that he could just go. Sorry, I'm about to

00:15:12.720 sneeze. I was worried that he was going to think that he could govern to the center. My goodness.

00:15:21.280 And it was our goal to pull him to the right, to make sure that he was held accountable to a

00:15:26.500 conservative audience, to the conservative base that elected him. Now that that hasn't happened,

00:15:31.060 I don't know if my goal has really changed. I want to make sure that Mark Carney isn't allowed

00:15:36.160 to run wild with the leftists that propped up Justin Trudeau over the last 10 years.

00:15:43.180 Our job is to hold him accountable from every direction, to make sure that his conflicts of 0.99

00:15:49.300 interests are exposed, to make sure that the bogus and garbage legislation that the morons that were 0.99

00:15:55.940 propping up Trudeau are still pushing forward is exposed and that Canadians understand exactly 0.99

00:16:01.100 the situation that our country is in. And it's not just Mark Carney that we need to focus on. It's not

00:16:06.640 just Pierre Polyev that we need to focus on. These activist judges that are rewriting the foundation

00:16:12.680 of what it means to be Canadian and to live in Canada, uh, by handing private property to radical,

00:16:19.880 uh, and, uh, you know, to, to these radical Indian bands is wrong and Canadians will not stand by it.

00:16:29.800 The CBC will though. And that means that we need to be there to explain to Canadians what is happening,

00:16:36.700 to read through the court rulings, read through the facts, digest it and share it and inform Canadians so

00:16:42.120 that they know what's going on so that they have the information that they need to stand up and fight

00:16:47.200 back themselves. Uh, and it's, that's a job that I take deeply personally. Uh, and I think that it's

00:16:54.640 extremely important that we do so because when it comes to protecting Canadians rights, private property,

00:17:01.020 that's one thing, but we're also on the front lines of protecting free speech. Uh, we're on the front

00:17:06.900 lines of protecting the rights, uh, of people to be journalists and to be media in this country,

00:17:12.880 which the sands are shifting under our feet. As we speak, Justin, it started, you said it about this

00:17:19.420 express VPN thing just a few minutes ago. It started with Justin Trudeau. Uh, but Mark Carney hasn't changed

00:17:26.140 the tune of the liberal government, the government of Canada, when it comes to, uh, attacking journalists,

00:17:32.060 attacking free speech and changing the rules that we've except expected to be true for the last,

00:17:39.820 you know, century and a half of Canada existing. We thought that this was a free country. We thought

00:17:45.200 that the, the media had inalienable rights, uh, that the government couldn't interfere with, uh,

00:17:52.040 that's turning out to not be true. And Mark Carney has to be held accountable for that.

00:17:56.980 Well, a hundred percent. And it's not just the federal government. It's not just the liberals.

00:18:01.900 There, there is a problem in our media landscape and with a lot of the other voices in media,

00:18:06.880 right? So basically what happened in this country is that the CBC was always kind of left leaning.

00:18:11.820 And I don't know, sometime around the first Trump administration, they just went hard left,

00:18:16.920 hard left. It became sort of a post-truth world where they didn't even care about facts. They only

00:18:21.320 cared about narratives. And the rest of the legacy media kind of went along with it. Like you had to,

00:18:26.100 it was kind of like a cultural revolution in China. Like you, you kind of had to like browbeat

00:18:31.040 anyone who had dissenting views and, and basically they purged conservative or just common sense

00:18:37.280 voices from the legacy media or previously common sense people like Charles Adler used to be kind

00:18:43.740 of more on the political right. He shifted hard to the political left, right? And so the media

00:18:48.640 took a marked step to the left. They went more and more left wing and they've removed conservative,

00:18:54.740 even centrist voices from their platforms. A couple of notable examples, Andrew Lawton,

00:19:00.340 who was a long-time radio host in London, Ontario got removed because they just didn't want pro-life

00:19:04.380 voice on their airwaves. I was eventually removed from my column. I'd written a column for eight

00:19:09.200 years, almost a decade in the Toronto Sun. It was syndicated across Post Media and I got removed from

00:19:15.420 that in 2021. And so they basically just decided that they didn't want any conservative voices in media.

00:19:20.580 And what did that do? That created a market space, right? It's like half the country is kind of

00:19:26.260 conservative or at least maybe skeptical of the legacy media narrative. The legacy media really

00:19:30.480 stopped doing journalism and started just doing pure activism, pushing out agendas, pushing out a

00:19:35.440 narrative. And they left this opening, right? And so there were a bunch of little upstart conservative

00:19:40.560 media outlets or just sort of centrist media outlets, center-right media outlets. And what the legacy

00:19:45.180 media then did is they turned around and started calling those groups far-right. And you and I get this

00:19:49.460 quite a bit, Kian, where they try to discredit us by just saying, well, they're far-right. And it's

00:19:54.100 like, okay, like what makes us far-right, right? Like when we first launched Juno News, Andrew Coyne

00:19:59.760 wrote a column in the Globe and Mail calling Juno News far-right. And I got into an argument with his

00:20:04.700 editor and I was like, what about Juno News is far-right? Like explain to me how I personally

00:20:10.440 am far-right. And she couldn't. And she just said, look, our columnists get a degree of latitude. 0.63

00:20:15.320 And also he didn't call you far-right. He called Juno News far-right. I just, I bring this up because

00:20:20.760 I wanted to specifically ask you about this piece. There's an organization called Anti-Hate Network,

00:20:27.160 the Anti-Hate Network, anti-hatenetwork.ca. And they wrote an article about us after the debate. So

00:20:32.700 just to provide clarity for folks, the Anti-Hate Network is a government-funded organization. They

00:20:38.000 get, they exist because of grants from the Trudeau government. And now I believe from the Kearney

00:20:42.720 government. And their whole mandate is what they say to expose hate on the far-right. They don't

00:20:47.760 focus on radical Islam. They don't focus on like the Hamasniks dominating the streets. They only 1.00

00:20:53.300 focus on what they call right-wing, far-right, white supremacist, neo-Nazi movements. And they kind

00:20:59.840 of like conflate all those things together, right? So on their website, many times they describe the

00:21:04.560 far-right and they use terms like neo-Nazi and white supremacist. And then here they had an article

00:21:09.340 about Juno News after the debates, the leaders debate scrums. The headline says far-right media

00:21:16.480 outlets dominate post-debate scrum. Six in the 17 reporters who asked questions came from Rebel News,

00:21:22.660 True North, and Juno News, okay? So in one breath, they say the far-right is an extreme problem to do

00:21:29.000 with all of these crazy like Nazi ideology. And then they're also like, oh yeah, and True North,

00:21:33.960 Juno News, and the Rebel are all also far-right. The article is just ridiculous. Like, 0.88

00:21:39.200 they basically just complain that you and Alex Zoltan managed to get to the front of the line

00:21:44.020 to ask your questions to Mark Carney before other journalists. And somehow that's like a government

00:21:49.440 problem or something like that. Like, to me, it's just like, these journalists aren't very good

00:21:53.260 at like, you know, if you, part of being a journalist and the skill is getting a question to the leader.

00:21:59.220 So figuring out how to get your question in. And it just seems like they, I mean, it's totally over the

00:22:04.060 top. I don't take a lot from Anti-Hate Network. I think it's a totally disgraced organization that

00:22:09.840 should not exist. And hopefully if Pierre Polyev does win an election, he will defund this organization.

00:22:14.320 But I just wanted to get your thoughts on that specific article.

00:22:20.120 Yeah. You know, the Anti-Hate Network is this band of basement dwelling neckbeards that have

00:22:27.960 nothing going for them in their lives outside of government grants that fuel their ability to,

00:22:34.820 to smear and lie about anyone who thinks that the government should tax people less so that

00:22:44.160 we're, you know, they have less, less, the government has less agency to give grants to 1.00

00:22:49.840 morons like these people. Like if they, if you think the taxes should be lower, you're a white 1.00

00:22:54.000 supremacist to them. If you think that, if you think, if you've ever had a conservative idea,

00:23:00.200 cross your mind, you are a white supremacist Nazi. You are, you might as well have a membership to 0.98

00:23:05.560 Hitler's Nazi party in the third Reich. That is, that's what goes through these morons head. 1.00

00:23:10.800 And then they pontificate it on this website domain that they're only able to afford because 1.00

00:23:16.360 of government grants. They actually wouldn't be able to afford it without it. Um, and maybe they

00:23:20.320 get some private donor funding from, you know, some, I, I, I, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna guess

00:23:26.800 where they might get other money from, but, um, it's a joke. And, you know, they've been following

00:23:31.840 me since I was a student in university, uh, saying that I am these terrible things, which I'm obviously

00:23:37.880 not. Um, you, you know, you, you and I have become friends over the last several years. And I think that,

00:23:43.520 you know, as well as anyone that I'm the furthest thing from a white supremacist, I'm very much a

00:23:48.400 conservative. And I might even say that I'm like a very much a right wing person, like more than most

00:23:54.240 people. But does that make me, uh, you know, does that make me a Nazi? No. Does that make anyone a

00:24:00.160 Nazi? If they think that, you know, if they think that immigration should be lower, for example,

00:24:04.240 which is one of the things that just ticks them off, they'll call you a Nazi real quick.

00:24:07.920 If you think immigration should be reduced, let alone eliminated or net zero or net negative, 0.78

00:24:14.640 even, uh, they, they will just call you the most harshest crude things in the world.

00:24:19.240 Once a sensible government. And I, I might even say that Mark Carney is slightly more sensible than

00:24:24.880 Justin Trudeau. I think if I were them, I'd be sweating bullets right now that their grant funding

00:24:30.880 might not last. And they're going to be grasping at straws to create this boogeyman, this ghost, uh,

00:24:36.960 this, this thing for Canadians and the government and MPs to be worried about that. There's this like

00:24:42.320 surge of racism, Nazism and right, like white supremacy in Canada so that they can justify 0.51

00:24:49.160 the grants that they get that pays, uh, their mother basement rent. So, uh, they're going to

00:24:55.860 pretend like there's this big issue. There's not. It's obvious. Uh, when you look at the issues in

00:25:01.420 terms of hate in this country, uh, it, it, it is the hate marchers on the street that are attacking,

00:25:08.080 attacking Jewish fathers on the street. These, the, we, the government of Canada literally shipped in

00:25:15.480 ISIS women, uh, families, uh, ISIS families from Syria and gave them candy and, and room service. 0.97

00:25:23.940 Uh, when ISIS was a huge issue, they're like, no, no, no, you should come to Canada and we'll keep

00:25:28.980 you safe. This is your home. And they, they think that that is not a problem, but we are, we are the

00:25:33.920 big boogeyman in the room, which really tells you something. I think that they, they're willing to

00:25:38.160 ignore Hamas agents of Hamas, uh, agents of, uh, the, the Iranian national guard in Canada.

00:25:47.020 And they think that that's not an issue. That's not, that's not what they're going to spend their

00:25:50.360 precious grant money on. No, they're going to focus on us. It's a joke. These people are despicable,

00:25:53.980 uh, and, uh, they're not going to last long because they don't have trio around anymore to coddle them 1.00

00:26:00.560 and pretend like there is this big white supremacist boogeyman in the room. Well, a hundred percent, 0.74

00:26:04.820 there are actual real national security issues. There are real security threats. You mentioned

00:26:08.580 the Iranian, um, coups force, like, like Canada has the largest number of Iranian regime officials

00:26:14.540 living in our country, thanks to the territorial government and the anti-hate network just doesn't

00:26:18.680 care. And actually they, they exposed it. We have the receipts right here. Ariella Kimmel,

00:26:22.380 who I actually used to work with in the federal government. Um, she was talking about how,

00:26:26.020 so, so basically after the October 7th attack, anti-hate network didn't say anything. They didn't

00:26:30.380 condemn it. They didn't say anything. And then like a month later, they finally put something out

00:26:34.700 and it said how Canada's far right is spinning the war to its advantage. So they finally found a way

00:26:40.600 to tie it to the far right. So Ariel Kimmel just says it's almost comical months after the massacres

00:26:45.220 in Israel. Um, she goes on to just say the anti-hate network finally put something out and it's

00:26:49.460 somehow blaming the right. Bernie Farber, who is, I believe he's like the founder or was the former

00:26:54.600 executive director of this organization says, um, not just the right, but the far right,

00:26:58.700 white supremacists, neo-Nazis and the like are actively, especially now targeting both Jews 0.73

00:27:03.400 and Muslims. So again, they found a way to spit it. And notice how he says the far right, right? 1.00

00:27:07.300 So he's like, Oh, it's not just the right. It's the far right. But just remember in that news article,

00:27:11.500 they called you and I have far right. So when they're talking about far right, they just mean

00:27:14.900 conservatives. They mean mainstream conservatives. Anyway, Ariella and Bernie go back and forth.

00:27:19.180 And finally, um, at the end of this thread, Bernie lets cat out of the bag. He says,

00:27:23.980 Ariella, the anti-hate.ca focuses on the extreme right. That is what it does. I wish that we had

00:27:30.120 the resources to do more. We just don't. So there it is. They don't care about extremisms and radical

00:27:35.240 Islam. They don't care about foreign regime officials in the country. They don't care about 1.00

00:27:39.500 the far left Antifa. Hey, a church in Montreal was firebombed last week on camera by Antifa while

00:27:45.360 they were flying a flag. That's outside their purview. They only focus on the far right and they get

00:27:49.940 government funds to do it. Of course, there is no equivalent on the other side, right? There never

00:27:53.260 is. And, uh, you know, you mentioned that you consider yourself right wing. Uh, when I was

00:27:57.700 going back and forth with the editor of the global mail about whether or not it's fair to call me

00:28:02.060 far right, I said, look, like I'm a mother. I have four kids. I'm married. I'm a Christian. Like I was

00:28:08.540 part of the conservative party. I worked for Jason Kenney. I've worked for Danielle Smith. I wrote for the

00:28:12.900 Toronto Sun for almost a decade. I'm mainstream. I interviewed Pierre Polyev. Like, like, how is it that you

00:28:18.600 can call me far right? I'm like a mainstream normal Canadian. And again, she just had to say, well,

00:28:23.460 it's not just you, it's your organization, which, you know, when you, when you start an organization,

00:28:28.200 there, there isn't really much of a difference. Like calling my organization far, far right,

00:28:31.720 but saying that I'm not is just, it's, it's just total like mental gymnastics, um, basically. Uh,

00:28:39.260 well, I, I want to end on a positive note, um, Kian, not just talking about some of our detractors.

00:28:43.920 And so I noticed that we were named as one of the top 20 sub stack influencers in the world. Um,

00:28:51.280 so this was an article, um, written by a platform called favicon, the top 20 sub stack influencers

00:28:58.040 in world politics in 2025. And we are ranked number four in the entire world. All of the other ones in

00:29:04.180 the top, um, 10, I believe are all Americans. There's a couple other Canadians on the list. Paul

00:29:08.480 Wells was number 13. Jen Gerson line was 15 and all the way near the top, uh, number four is Juno 0.81

00:29:16.220 news. So I think it's really exciting, um, just to be having, I guess that influence on a global stage

00:29:22.420 even, um, to see our small little Canadian media company grow so much. Um, it's really exciting.

00:29:28.040 Why don't you tell the audience a little bit about what we have in store for the rest of the year and

00:29:33.120 for the future? Yeah. I mean, that's, that's such great news and it's so rewarding to actually see

00:29:39.960 real results. I'll, I'll say it right now. The, the anti-hate network is never going to rank

00:29:44.860 on a global list of influence like that. Uh, and as I said earlier, the reason why we have grown so

00:29:51.680 quickly is because we're brutally honest. We punch hard, we punch up, uh, and, and we have a national

00:30:01.140 network that we've quickly grown across the country where we can cover any story, uh, low from,

00:30:07.900 from a local political issue to a national issue in Ottawa and everywhere in between. Uh, we have

00:30:15.360 create, we have exposed why the mainstream media is failing because they haven't been able to be as

00:30:20.400 nimble as us. They haven't been able to be as honest as us. Uh, we, uh, we are so lucky that we do not

00:30:28.100 like the anti-hate network rely on a grant from a political benefactor to continue our operations.

00:30:36.660 We don't need to lie through our teeth or create some fake boogeyman in order to continue doing what

00:30:43.360 we do to continue sharing the truth, to continue our research and deep dives and documentaries that

00:30:50.120 we're working on. We don't rely on any of that. We rely on our viewers, not even through, uh, the

00:30:55.760 donation model that the counter signal used to, uh, rely quite heavily on. Um, which, you know, I,

00:31:02.560 I'm glad we did because that helped the counter signal grow really quickly as well. Uh, and it

00:31:06.820 was a really important part of our business model. And we still do take donations here at junior news.

00:31:11.900 We're not going to say no because it helps us hire more. It helps us do more. It helps us,

00:31:15.780 uh, let create these documentaries that we're talking about. I don't know if you've shared that

00:31:19.580 with your audience yet that we're working on these longer form content pieces now, but what we do is we

00:31:25.040 rely on the subscriptions of people. It's a, it's a marketplace, uh, people can subscribe where they

00:31:30.640 don't have to subscribe. Uh, and more often than not people decide, yeah, I want to see the news that

00:31:36.180 junior news is producing because they're the only ones that I can trust. I can't trust the CBC. I can't

00:31:41.020 trust the Toronto star to tell me what is honestly going on in Richmond where people's houses are being

00:31:47.500 confiscated by the state not being confiscated. I shouldn't say that, but their land is the title is

00:31:52.560 being taken away. The value is zero. Who's going to buy that property now? And the CBC is not saying

00:31:59.760 that they're talking about how it's a win for global indigenous rights because allegedly these people

00:32:07.000 fished on a river nearby once. So let's just invalidate tens of millions, if not hundreds of

00:32:13.260 millions of dollars in private property value, let alone the crown land value that every Canadian

00:32:18.780 should, uh, you know, has a God-given right to enjoy the, the benefits and beauty of crown land

00:32:25.460 should not be given to random groups of people who, who have no legal claim to it. It's, it's,

00:32:33.660 it's, it's this made up idea. Anyways, the CBC is lying about it.

00:32:37.300 Just to add one more layer on top of that, Kian, then we see like the Adams Lake band in Northern

00:32:42.280 British Columbia up past Kamloops where they put signs up saying no settlers. And I interviewed

00:32:46.780 John Rodstad, leader of the BC Conservative Party yesterday. He says that that exists all over the

00:32:50.560 province where they, not only did they take the land that used to be accessible to all Canadians

00:32:54.620 and say, this is private, this is now indigenous land, but then they also say no white people allowed,

00:32:59.080 which is incredibly racist. And it goes against the entire spirit of our country, uh, which is a

00:33:05.240 partnership between the French to English. Let's talk about what's happening to Corey Morgan

00:33:09.300 with the Western standard who went to the Siksika nation, which is, it is, I, I live right off the 0.96

00:33:16.760 Siksika nation. That's where I grew up. Um, and Corey Morgan went to go expose the decrepit third world 1.00

00:33:25.780 situation that many people, many of my friends who I went to school with, uh, have to live in because

00:33:33.200 they don't have private property rights, because there's no accountability with band structure and

00:33:37.780 leadership like Stephen Harper tried to put in and then Trudeau just repealed it. Uh, they're living

00:33:42.560 in squalor and the most decrepit unsafe conditions. Their houses burned down every second week over

00:33:48.960 there because there's no safety standards. No, it's terrible. And, and Corey Morgan goes there to

00:33:54.060 explain to the average Canadian who probably has never stepped foot on a reserve, uh, to show what it

00:33:59.940 looks like. And retroactively that band says, no, you are a colonial settler. Uh, and we're going to 0.53

00:34:06.200 charge you with trespass retroactively, which is not just attack an attack on his mobility rights and

00:34:12.020 his, his rights to be somewhere in Canada and his journalistic rights. It's a, it's a huge attack on

00:34:18.360 his free speech, retroactively charging someone a fine because you said something that an Indian band

00:34:24.660 disagrees with is a joke. It's a, it's a total disgrace. And it's one example of many that we've

00:34:31.040 talked about, uh, of this, the very fabric of our country being redefined in real time over the course

00:34:39.000 of the last five years. I don't even think that Mark Carney is the, the, the focus of what we need

00:34:44.480 to be looking at right now. Uh, it is the judges. It is, it is the manipulators. It is the liars.

00:34:51.200 Uh, and it is just, it is the un unraveling of our Canadian identity and core belief structure

00:34:58.020 and values and freedoms on the basis of the lies of these mass graves. Uh, which is really what I

00:35:04.580 think kickstarted this, this UN drip, uh, UN drop garbage. Um, that's, that's going to be my focus.

00:35:11.580 And I think hopefully our focus as we try to defend the rights of Canadians by exposing the 0.99

00:35:17.460 truth about what's going on. It's funny. Cause I increasingly believe that that is the

00:35:21.740 biggest issue in the country. Look, it's hard to go around Toronto. Like even just you, the mall by

00:35:26.240 my house, Vaughn Mills mall, it does not feel like Canada. Like it really feels like a third world

00:35:30.320 country. It's unbelievable. Um, how much Toronto specifically has changed over the last five to

00:35:35.240 10 years because of mass migration, the demographics is totally different. And it's easy to see those as

00:35:41.300 being the biggest, related to the biggest issues in the country to do with crime. And of course,

00:35:46.200 a liberal revolving door prison system, catch and release policies, all of that. Um, but when you

00:35:51.160 take a step back and you think about like what it means to be Canadian, what we're teaching next

00:35:54.780 generation, um, just our belief in our country, uh, I think the issue that you were just talking

00:35:59.280 about, um, it, it sort of goes against the very core of whether or not Canada can be a country,

00:36:04.620 whether we're a legitimate country or whether they see us as invalid settlers and Canada needs to be

00:36:10.000 disintegrated and that private property needs to be given to other groups. So, uh, these are all

00:36:15.340 issues. This idea of truth and reconciliation, which is just like this set that this idea of truth and

00:36:23.420 reconciliation, it implies that at some point we must be reconciled, right? Like at some point we

00:36:29.100 must move past this, this idea that, that Canada was stolen. Okay. What is it going to take? Right.

00:36:35.880 You know, in Siksika, Justin Trudeau came over there and he gave them like $1.23 billion. He just

00:36:42.940 handed them a blank check. He said, here you go. There's a big ceremony. It was an insane amount

00:36:47.820 of money per person there. It's the, these people should all be rich, but they're not. They still

00:36:52.920 live in these decrepit situations, which makes you think, Hmm, maybe it's the Indian band leadership 1.00

00:36:58.140 that needs to be held accountable. Maybe something's going on here that the average indigenous 1.00

00:37:02.140 person, uh, is not actually benefiting from this Indian industry scam of it. It, it, it, it, same 0.98

00:37:10.120 thing happens up in Northern BC up where they were putting the Northern gateway pipeline through the

00:37:14.580 average indigenous person there was working on the pipeline, wanted it to go through was seeing the

00:37:20.500 benefits of, of industry and building and, and the growth of the country. But the Indian band and 0.88

00:37:27.360 these, these hereditary leaders of the Indian band, they were the ones that were trying to pocket more

00:37:33.060 money. They were the ones that were trying to, um, take a, seize more control. And it's just not

00:37:39.420 going to work. Something is going to explode in this country and not in a good way. It's not the

00:37:44.640 economy. It's going to some, there's the, the social fabric of this country is disintegrating before

00:37:49.440 our eyes. And it is the most important thing to be talking about right now.

00:37:53.880 Well, 100% key. I really appreciate your time today. We have a special clip, um, that we are

00:37:58.780 going to show you. This is the highlights of our time so far June is six months. And we have, um,

00:38:03.620 so much more plans to just, we're just getting started. This is the very beginning. We are on

00:38:07.000 a mission to replace the CBC. We want to become the biggest, most important, most influential news

00:38:11.840 company in the country. And so if you haven't already head on over to juneonews.com, join us,

00:38:17.040 become a premium subscriber that helps us fuel our journalism. And to end the show, we are going to

00:38:22.060 share this montage of some of our best moments here at Juno News. Um, thank you so much. I'm

00:38:27.160 Candice Malcolm. That's Kim Bexley, the founders of Juno News. Thank you. And God bless.

00:38:30.960 Today, we're announcing that we're joining forces to change the media landscape in Canada.

00:38:36.940 We are announcing the launch of Juno News.

00:38:41.040 What is your position on the right number in terms of the levels for permanent residents?

00:38:46.160 Bring in a simple mathematical formula that says we cannot bring in people faster than we add houses.

00:38:52.400 Carney's doing exactly the same thing. He's looking like Trudeau 2.0 all over again,

00:38:58.760 except this time on steroids.

00:39:00.920 Your entire campaign does seem to be predicated on putting you in the front and hiding the people

00:39:05.200 that stood in lockstep with Justin Trudeau for the last 10 years. I'm wondering how you reconcile

00:39:09.920 this and how you can trust their judgment.

00:39:11.780 Do you believe that women, biological women, have the right to their own spaces? 0.93

00:39:15.820 This has been a three-year culmination for us. And to think that it was our last rally and being

00:39:28.400 with all of the people, they share their stories, their pains, their struggles, and we're doing it

00:39:35.060 for them.

00:39:36.060 I'm really excited and really proud of what we have built together. I say together because

00:39:40.940 we would not be here without the audience, without viewers like you, without the people

00:39:44.440 who are subscribers to Juno News.

00:39:46.400 Do you really think that Western Canada is at the point where it won't last another four

00:39:51.020 years, it won't stand for it, and that that is perhaps how Mark Cartier will go down?

00:39:54.860 What's most worrisome in Western Canada is the utter indifference of the central Canadian 0.90

00:40:00.860 elites and media to this phenomenon. And even the misreporting on it, they keep thinking it's just

00:40:09.020 an Alberta phenomenon.

00:40:10.160 If a clear independence referendum landed on the ballot, how would you vote?

00:40:14.620 I'm prepared to put that to Albertans and I'll let them decide.

00:40:17.860 How do you see that movement playing out?

00:40:19.700 My job is to see this very legitimate concern that Albertans have, that Canada is just not

00:40:26.420 working for Alberta. We are on Team Canada, but Team Canada is not on Team Alberta.
