00:00:00.000Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has long been accused of winking and nodding and quietly courting radical Islamists and Jew-haters in Canada.
00:00:07.820He took that to a whole new level on Tuesday when he scolded Israel sternly, sternly accusing our ally of doing the things that Hamas is guilty of.
00:00:16.640Trudeau is an embarrassment, a fool, and now he's firmly come out on Hamas's side of the conflict.

00:01:48.020Today on the program, we're going to talk about Justin Trudeau, his foolhardy lecture to Israel, and how Israel has responded.
00:01:54.700Later in the program, I'll be joined by my colleague, Harrison Faulkner, to talk about his reporting on the Israel conflict and the truth.
00:02:01.420We're going to discuss the truth about the government-funded anti-hate network in Canada.
00:02:05.840So, Justin Trudeau has been walking a fine line since the start of the war in Israel on October 7th.
00:02:13.100You will remember that a few weeks ago, he blamed Israel for bombing a hospital, even though Canada's own intelligence showed that that was a rocket that was misfired by a Palestinian terrorist group, and that it actually hit the parking lot.
00:02:25.920The hospital remains intact and relatively unscathed.
00:02:29.340As acts of violence against Jewish Canadians increased to alarming levels, with synagogues being firebombed, shots being fired at Jewish elementary schools, Jews being beat up at protests, intimidated at universities, threatened across the country, having their businesses harassed and protested, and boycotted, Justin Trudeau, throughout this all, has played the moral equivalence game.
00:02:49.420Every time he condemns anti-Semitism, he makes sure to also equally condemn so-called Islamophobia and all forms of hate.
00:02:56.720He can't really bring himself to just calling out the evils of anti-Semitism.
00:03:01.140He's been seen groveling to supporters at pro-Hamas mosques.
00:03:05.160He's been having private closed-door meetings with Palestinian activists.
00:03:08.120And his completely incompetent sidekick, Canada's foreign affairs minister, Melanie Jolie, I have no idea how she found herself in that role, but there she is.
00:03:16.820She actually said out loud that she looks forward to negotiations between Israel and Hamas.
00:03:22.900Yes, Jolie said that she hoped for a detente and even more negotiations where she imagined a negotiating table with the Israelis, with Hamas, and with Qatar present.
00:03:32.700So, I guess, according to our foreign affairs minister, Israel's supposed to sit down with the evil, sadistic terrorists who gleefully massacred entire villages in the most barbaric ways imaginable,
00:03:43.940who have kidnapped and continue to hold hundreds of civilian hostages, including children, little kids, and babies in unknown conditions,
00:03:51.500and a group that calls for the genocide against the Jews and a holy war at every opportunity.
00:03:57.060Israel's supposed to actually sit down and negotiate with these people.
00:03:59.640Imagine how ignorant and uninformed you have to be to call for Hamas to have a seat at any future negotiations.
00:04:45.320It rewards them for hiding behind civilians and below civilians in Gaza, which, by the way, is a war crime.
00:04:50.900And it lets things go back to exactly the way they were before the massacre on October 7th.
00:04:56.320So Trudeau has been talking out of both sides of his mouth, and he's quietly been winking and nodding at the pro-Hamas side.
00:05:02.600Or at least he was until yesterday, Tuesday, November 14th, when Trudeau dropped the mask and came out firmly on the side of Hamas.
00:05:10.420Trudeau stood up at the podium and shamelessly parroted Hamas' talking points.
00:05:14.420He accused Israel of doing all the things that Hamas does, targeting civilians, murdering children and babies, and failing to use restraint.
00:05:48.280All innocent life is equal in worth, Israeli and Palestinian.
00:05:54.920As the world is watching, on TV, on social media, we're hearing the testimonies of doctors, family members, survivors, kids who've lost their parents.
00:06:15.920The world is witnessing this, the killing of women and children, of babies.
00:07:08.680Instead, Trudeau became the punching bag for far more serious leaders who know a thing or two about the difference between Hamas and Israel.
00:07:17.500So first off, we see Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, quickly responded to Justin Trudeau on X.
00:07:25.040Justin Trudeau, it is not Israel that is deliberately targeting civilians, but Hamas that beheaded, burned and massacred civilians in the worst horrors perpetrated on Jews since the Holocaust.
00:07:34.440While Israel is doing everything to keep civilians out of harm's way, Hamas is doing everything to keep them in harm's way.
00:07:42.320Israel provides civilians in Gaza humanitarian corridors and safe zones.
00:07:46.380Hamas prevents them from leaving at gunpoint.
00:07:49.040It is Hamas, not Israel, that should be held accountable for committing a double war crime, targeting civilians while also hiding behind civilians.
00:07:56.760The forces of civilization must back Israel in defeating Hamas's barbarism.
00:08:01.920It wasn't just Benjamin Netanyahu, Yair Lapid, who is the leader of the opposition in Israel.
00:08:37.160Someone please get community note checks on this ignorant man.
00:08:39.980He asks, did Hamas use minimal restraint on October 7th?
00:08:43.980Is Israel deliberately targeting civilians and babies?
00:08:46.660Is Israel blocking civilians from leaving a theater of conflict?
00:08:49.980Is the IDF hiding in ambulances and underneath hospitals?
00:08:53.200Is Israel rounding up Arab civilians to use as human shields and barking chips?
00:08:57.240Are the attacks against Jews in Canada motivated by Islamophobia?
00:09:02.000Next, we have the Center for Israel and Jewish Affairs that wrote this.
00:09:05.720The blood of dead babies, Israeli and Palestinians, is on Hamas.
00:09:10.100Rhetoric like Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's today enables Hamas to continue to cynically and criminally use the Palestinian civilian population as human shields to advance its genocidal goal.
00:09:20.900And while surely not his intent, such assertions also fuel anti-Semitism at home here in Canada.
00:09:27.720David Frum, who is a political commenter, also wrote,
00:09:30.880Justin Trudeau's public reprimand of Israel tonight will have zero effect on the region.
00:09:51.040What should we make of Justin Trudeau and his decision to basically take the side of Hamas or at least parrot Hamas's talking points in his remarks on Tuesday?
00:10:00.440Well, I wrote about this in a column for True North this week called Can We Finally Have a Discussion About Canadian Values?
00:10:08.520Justin Trudeau is beholden to the extreme left and Canada's growing Muslim population.
00:10:12.500Most Muslims in Canada oppose terrorism and loathe groups like Hamas.
00:10:16.940Many of them, after all, are here in Canada because of the destabilizing forces of radical Islamists and jihadist movements in the Middle East and North Africa.
00:10:25.200But among Canada's 1.7 million Muslims, approximately half a million of which came to Canada under Trudeau's immigration policies,
00:10:32.020there are a noisy, powerful few who subscribe to an extremist religious ideology and have brought their hatred of Israel and the Jews with them to Canada.
00:10:39.600Trudeau, it seems, doesn't want to risk offending them by showing too much support for Israel.
00:10:45.260This is just Justin Trudeau's latest moral failing.
00:10:47.660It seems the man is not capable of uniting Canadians and bringing out the better nature of newcomers who are holding on to tribal feuds from faraway lands.
00:10:55.120Trudeau is unwilling and unable to articulate Canadian values.
00:10:58.260In fact, he infamously told the New York Times magazine that Canada was the first post-national state and that there was no uniting culture and no mainstream.
00:11:08.440Trudeau doesn't really seem to believe in anything like Canadian values.
00:11:14.120He was wrong to scold Israel for doing the things that Hamas does.
00:11:17.560Justin Trudeau needs to stop playing with fire, stop catering to the most extreme radicals in our society, and stop embarrassing Canada by using Hamas's talking points.
00:11:26.820Now, I'm excited to be joined by my next guest.
00:11:29.600I'm going to bring in True North's Harrison Faulkner.
00:11:37.160Yeah, I think it's fitting that you're my first guest, my first show back after doing maternity leave because you and I were on the show together when I announced that it was my last show before going on leave.
00:11:46.320And I just want to tell the audience a quick little story.
00:11:49.160So Harrison started out at our network as, I think, an intern.
00:11:53.320Searchlight Pictures presents In the Blink of an Eye on Hulu on Disney+, a sweeping science fiction drama spanning the Stone Age, the present day, and the distant future.
00:12:04.480About the essence of what it means to be human, regardless of our place in history.
00:12:08.880The film is directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton and stars Rashida Jones, Kate McKinnon, and Daveed Diggs.
00:12:15.520Stream In the Blink of an Eye now only on Hulu on Disney+.
00:12:27.120Yeah, so he started out as an intern just fresh out of university.
00:12:30.780He got promoted to become a producer here on my show, and so he was helping out with the Candice Malcolm Show.
00:12:35.740So we obviously spotted some talent, and we had you on first as a guest and then eventually as a co-host of Fake News Fridays here at the Candice Malcolm Show.
00:12:45.400And then when we were talking about what we were going to do when I went on maternity leave and how we were going to fill up some content, we decided to give you your own show.
00:12:52.600And Harrison, you've just really knocked it out of the park.
00:12:55.360It's been so tremendous to see your growth over the past few years and to see how popular a show is, how much you're connecting with the audience, and how good you are at reporting and doing commentary and putting it all out in podcast form.
00:13:07.340So I just wanted to let you know how proud I am and congratulate you for all your success here at True North.
00:13:12.400Oh, well, thank you for the opportunity.
00:13:14.120It's never – there's never been a dull moment since I've started this show.
00:13:17.100We keep getting material to talk about, so it's not been the most difficult task, but it's really been a lot of fun.
00:13:24.180Now, I want to talk about some reporting that you've done recently.
00:13:26.960You were invited to see a private briefing at the Israeli consulate in Toronto.
00:13:32.140You had to view some pretty gruesome footage from GoPros and cell phone videos and really a snuff film of the massacre that happened on October 7th.
00:13:41.380So I want you to, first of all, tell us a little bit about the briefing.
00:17:27.020It's of a father who is desperately trying to save his two sons' lives.
00:17:32.280These are two little kids, and they're obviously woken up in the morning, and he rushes to grab them.
00:17:38.320And they're, you know, trying to just find any place they can get shelter.
00:17:42.060It looks as though they have some sort of shelter or bomb shelter in their backyard.
00:17:46.160I'm guessing that's just the kind of situation that these people have to live in every day.
00:17:52.060They have bomb shelters in their backyards.
00:17:53.740This father grabs his two kids and rushes into their shelter in their backyard.
00:17:59.540And a Hamas terrorist spots them, walks up, and throws a grenade into the shelter.
00:18:04.660And all you see are these two kids run out, and the decapitated body of the father who absorbed the blast to save his two children.
00:18:12.680Then you see these Hamas terrorists enter the home and just eat the food and drink what's in the fridge of this man they've just killed in front of these two kids.
00:18:26.000These two kids are watching these terrorists in their kitchen eating their food after they've just killed his father.
00:18:31.140You then see this, you then see the mother, who was, thank God for her safety, away from the kibbutz at this time.
00:18:41.800She comes back with IDF soldiers to see what's happened to her husband.
00:18:46.480And we don't know what's happened to the kids.
00:18:50.560All of that, Candace, is just the first five minutes.
00:18:55.100It's unbelievable that everything was filmed, everything was celebrated.
00:19:00.600It was obviously not just filmed for promotion, for Hamas promotional material, but for these people's, for their own enjoyment, which is just so sick.
00:19:13.900But really, it's that opening scene of the desperation of a father trying to save his own children and sacrificing his life to do so that I can't, I haven't been able to get out of my head.
00:19:27.160Journalists all over the world in these private closed-door screenings have seen the rest of the film.
00:19:32.100And some of the footage I've noticed has been trickling out onto social media.
00:19:35.760As I wrote in my opinion piece, I think, although that's horrible and it's difficult for people to see, it's really what needs to happen.
00:19:44.360The world needs to see what these people did.
00:19:46.560If, if there's going to ever really be, I think, I think a true understanding of what happened on October 7th.
00:19:54.280The reality is people don't, a lot of people as we see on our streets and in this country, either don't believe what we're told about October 7th.
00:20:03.640Don't believe it's as bad as, as, as the media has made it out to be.
00:20:07.220And at worst think that it didn't actually happen.
00:20:11.100And that's just the world we live in there.
00:20:12.900People, people need to see the evidence in front of their own eyes.
00:20:15.740They can't just accept the word of, of handpicked journalists.
00:20:18.560As I wrote, the evidence needs to be there.
00:20:50.400It's almost like we're all watching something, a different play out when I listened to Justin Trudeau
00:20:54.600and hear his words, uh, scolding Israel, you know, basically accusing them of doing all the things that we know that Hamas is doing.
00:21:00.820It's like, it's like, it's a different universe.
00:21:02.600And I, I commend you for sitting through that film.
00:21:05.300I, I know I wouldn't be able to, you talk about how those images keep you up at night.
00:21:09.300You know, I forced myself to watch pieces here and there, you know, as a journalist, you kind of have to, in some ways it's your obligation.
00:21:15.260Even, I remember when ISIS was carrying out its, its gruesome attacks and I would read the details and I would watch those videos.
00:21:21.220Not because I wanted to, I really don't want to, but I think you're right.
00:21:24.760It's important to see it, to bear witness to the truth and what happened and those images get burnt into your eyelids.
00:21:31.860I mean, I've got three little kids and, you know, the idea of it does keep me up at night, how those families felt in that moment of terror.
00:21:39.140And, and most of them didn't make it out.
00:21:41.840And, and it's horrific and, you know, it's all the backstory to the conflict right now.
00:21:47.380Just to push back a little bit, ever so slightly, you know, people are denying the events in real time, even though there is evidence out there, even though it, it has been confirmed.
00:21:56.960And, and, you know, the IDF and the Israelis have, have done as much as they can to try to convince the public there's always going to be people out there on social media saying that it's fake, saying that it's a psych op, saying that, you know, maybe these are, these are crisis actors or, or maybe it was produced, you know, in a, in a studio or something like that.
00:22:13.460I think even if they do release the videos, they'll, they'll still be hateful people who, you know, don't, don't want to believe it, refuse to believe it, convince themselves it's not true.
00:22:23.020And all that you're really doing at that point is, is just violating what very little privacy some of these families have left.
00:22:30.820And, and, and again, disgracing the sanctity of the life that was taken.
00:22:37.660Well, I think you raise a good point that ultimately there are always going to be people who will refuse to believe even what's in front of their own eyes, even if they have evidence right in front of them, they either won't believe it.
00:22:48.800And that will, that will be the case for a number of reasons.
00:22:51.460I think there is, as we've all seen clearly amongst the people that are protesting against Israel, there is a large amount of just general antisemitism involved here.
00:23:01.140There is this, there is this hatred that we're seeing, which is clouding everyone's judgment.
00:23:05.500I think, however, I don't want to just immediately assume that those who believe Israel is somehow in the wrong here are all, would all think the same if they saw the footage that I saw.
00:23:17.380I think there is still a level of humanity among a number of people.
00:23:20.600That being said, of course, there are, there are people that will never accept what, what is in front of them.
00:23:24.700And that's just a reality we have to, I think, accept in society.
00:23:28.820But I do believe that if this footage was out there, a lot of people would change their minds.
00:23:34.280I think that there is, there's so much, there's so much that when you watch this footage that really tests your, your boundaries of what you think humans are capable of.
00:23:43.920The way that these people celebrate their actions that leaves you, leaves you realizing just how bad these people really are.
00:23:51.800And just what, and the real situation Israel faces on a day-to-day basis.
00:23:56.680These people live, in some cases, in very close to their country.
00:24:01.860They, they attack their country all the time.
00:24:04.500These people are constantly under attack by a group of people who take pride and celebration in the, in the barbarity of their actions.
00:24:12.380That is the part that I think will really test people's, people's limits and make them, make them question whether or not what they're hearing, all the negativity that they're hearing about Israel, whether or not it's actually legitimate if they see this footage.
00:24:51.540I wanted to discuss with you an organization in Canada that you and I are both familiar with, the so-called Anti-Hate Network in Canada.
00:24:58.480So, you know, this story really is fit for Fake News Friday.
00:25:01.440Maybe we should bring back Fake News Friday just to talk about this.
00:25:04.160But look, for years, the legacy media has quoted and run stories based on this group's reports.
00:25:09.500But all of that has really been undermined in recent weeks.
00:25:13.080So, you know, you think that the Anti-Hate Network, true to its name, would start in the wake of everything that we've seen over the past few weeks.
00:25:19.980It would really start focusing on the immense hatred that we see at the pro-Palestinian rallies, really just pro-Hamas rallies.
00:25:30.460We see hateful messages on signs and hateful people bullying Jewish businesses, attacking Jewish people.
00:25:35.780So you would expect a group called the Anti-Hate Network to be, you know, front and center condemning all of this.
00:25:41.620But instead, there was radio silence from this group.
00:25:44.260We didn't hear anything, anything from this group, other than there was one blog post that I saw posted that was trying to blame this all on some obscure far-right individual,
00:25:53.840even though everyone knows that it's woke leftists and Islamists that are marching at these rallies.
00:25:59.380But then we had Bernie Farber, who is one of the founders of this organization.
