00:03:53.000 hello everybody welcome to shadow at night this is thursday august the 7th 2025 the guest on the

00:04:05.920 show tonight he was just here it seems like yesterday but it's actually been three weeks

00:04:10.400 john carpe is the president and founder of the justice center for constitutional freedoms and

00:04:17.020 he's also author of the book called Corrupted by Fear, and John joins the show in just a couple

00:04:23.020 of seconds. Since we last had John on the show, the JCCF has become involved in even more cases

00:04:29.340 that are happening across the country, and we're going to talk about those tonight.

00:04:33.560 Sean Foyt, the U.S. gospel evangelist, performer, Christian rocker, whatever you want to call him,

00:04:39.720 he's been banned in seven Canadian cities, and the JCCF has issued a warning letter to one city

00:04:45.940 in particular. We'll cover that. Also, this ridiculous ban on hiking in the woods in Nova

00:04:50.920 Scotia because it's dangerous. You're going to start a fire. Jeff Ebley from Veterans for Freedom

00:04:57.020 released a video on that last night, which I made a reel today, and we're going to play again

00:05:02.320 tonight. Also, Corey Morgan, he's our friend with the Western Standard based in Calgary,

00:05:08.120 and he's been slapped with a couple of tickets. And these tickets come from Siksika First Nation.

00:05:15.940 After Corey released a video criticizing the reserve system, and let's not forget Bill C-2,

00:05:21.240 this is the Strong Border Act, where the government of Canada can crack down on anybody

00:05:26.540 who's transacting cash deals of over $10,000.

00:05:32.740 That's true.

00:05:34.760 So we're going to get into all of that in just a second with John Carpe of the Justice

00:05:39.300 Center for Constitutional Freedoms.

00:06:36.460 dabbles in many, many things involving governments all over the world, whether you know it or not.

00:06:44.360 And some of the stuff that you're going to find out tonight on the extension will chill you to

00:06:49.660 the bone. So hang on for that in the extension tonight, starting around nine o'clock central.

00:06:56.480 The Shadow at Night livestream with John Carpe of the JCCF begins right after this.

00:07:06.460 Hello, John. Welcome back to the show. Thanks for coming on tonight.

00:07:35.680 Hey, glad to be with you.

00:07:37.240 Hey, listen, I hope you had a great vacation.

00:07:39.280 I know you had a vacation between now and the last time you were on the show.

00:07:42.180 I hope you found some time to relax and chill out, at least for a while.

00:07:47.080 I did. Recharge my batteries and get back to work.

00:07:51.060 And all of a sudden, we got Sean Feucht, and he's getting banned from cities.

00:07:55.160 And we've got Nova Scotia banning hiking in the woods.

00:07:58.800 And yeah, no rest for the wicked, as the old saying goes.

00:08:02.280 We have a lot of ground to cover tonight.

00:08:04.000 uh john i'm not sure if you've seen this video it's on the justice center's x page it's jeff

00:08:09.300 evely our friend jeff evely from the veterans for freedom uh he's in nova scotia and he put

00:08:14.320 this video out last night let's let's watch this and you guys pay attention it's actually pretty

00:08:18.580 funny hey jeff evely here i'm in petersfield provincial park in the most tyrannical province

00:08:24.880 of canada which is nova scotia with my fuzzy friend axel where we walk pretty much every

00:08:31.100 single morning and here you can see that this area is taped off because that trail is the woods

00:08:41.900 but this area is not taped off because that's not the woods this area is taped off because

00:08:51.500 that's the woods and there is a sign here that says trail closed due to extreme

00:08:58.540 fire hazards so that is the woods this area is not the woods this area is the woods

00:09:08.780 this area is not the woods this area is the woods this area is not the woods

00:09:20.880 this area is the woods this area is not the woods

00:09:30.400 this area is the woods

00:09:34.480 this area is not the woods

00:09:39.960 this is the woods if we go in there fires will start axel come on come on buddy you're gonna

00:09:50.660 to start a fire. I love that he said that. If we go in there, fires will start. John,

00:09:59.000 how are governments getting away with this nonsense? Well, we'll have to wait and see

00:10:03.240 if there's enough of a public outcry. If the provincial elected representatives, I don't

00:10:10.700 know if they're called MLAs or members of the House of Assembly, I don't know what their title

00:10:16.140 is. But if the voters in Nova Scotia contact their elected representatives and say, this is

00:10:22.160 unacceptable, it's ridiculous, it's stupid, then it could get reversed quite quickly and quite 0.99

00:10:29.280 easily, as opposed to a court action, which, you know, by the time you get an outcome, you're lucky 1.00

00:10:35.720 if it's a year, a year and a half, you're probably looking at two years, two and a half, three years

00:10:40.000 before you get a court ruling. So people in Nova Scotia should contact their elected representatives

00:10:45.540 And, um, but I don't, you know, it's so stupid that it makes me wonder if the premier just 0.99

00:10:53.260 gets a psychological pleasure from being on a power trip and taking away people's rights 0.99

00:10:58.840 and freedoms.

00:10:59.920 And it's, uh, there's no rational connection there, right?

00:11:03.460 I mean, if they said there is a province wide fire ban, no campfires anywhere, uh, okay.

00:11:08.900 You know, you can see how there's a relationship between that edict and no forest fires.

00:11:14.180 or if they say there's a province-wide ban on smoking anywhere in the woods or you know you can

00:11:20.040 only smoke inside a city or town but you know again there would be a rational connection but

00:11:27.080 this like as if somebody walking down a trail in the woods is going to cause a fire i mean it's

00:11:32.140 just no no relationship well i think jeff was pointing out the ridiculousness of it as well

00:11:38.880 right like he's on the trails and some of the trails are blocked off with the yellow tape

00:11:43.380 like we all remember from the COVID response and other trails are not and that's just as much

00:11:51.020 the woods quote unquote as the trails that were blocked off so where are they getting their

00:11:56.080 rationale from here? Well where did they get rationale for a lot of these COVID rules where

00:12:01.580 you know four years ago there's a 17 year old teenager in Ottawa gets a $700 ticket for playing

00:12:09.060 basketball alone outside, like as if he's somehow threatening anybody with, with spreading COVID by

00:12:16.140 being outside alone, people getting fined for sitting on a park bench. They closed off trails

00:12:21.820 in, in BC and Alberta. I'm sure they did in Manitoba, Nova Scotia, everywhere. You can't

00:12:27.240 go hiking outside as if that's somehow going to save the life of some poor vulnerable senior in

00:12:34.020 a nursing home who's, you know, got, who's in really poor health, who's could actually be

00:12:39.300 threatened by COVID, you know, somehow we had edicts then to not go hiking in the woods as if

00:12:45.940 that's going to save, prevent people from dying from COVID. If, if you and I don't go hiking in

00:12:52.140 the woods, just as stupid, but there was a power trip. I just hope it doesn't catch on for, for 0.99

00:12:59.320 this issue you know you know i'll tell you smart enough to see through it the premier of of nova

00:13:05.760 scotia tim houston he was on tv a couple of days ago and boy i'll tell you that that tv appearance

00:13:11.880 reminded me a lot of the premiers all getting on tv during the covid response and looking so sad

00:13:18.720 and rumpled right like their sleeves are rolled up and their tie is half tied and oh i gotta tell

00:13:24.240 you know, I really hate to do this because we have a beautiful province and it's summertime and

00:13:30.220 I don't know what else to do. We're going to have to close down hiking in public areas. I mean,

00:13:37.640 but it also looked to me a little bit like he didn't really want to be doing that.

00:13:44.460 So I surmise from that. And this is just my own observation. I'm not talking about anything

00:13:49.360 factual here just my observation that maybe somebody else came up with this decision i don't

00:13:55.280 know it just seemed to me that he didn't want to be there doing that i you know it's it's so hard

00:14:02.240 to say um i i can't imagine what kind of of of pressure uh but even if there's a lot of pressure

00:14:11.520 you still choose to go along with something or not so uh politicians for the most part are

00:14:17.760 followers, not leaders. And if they sense, uh, if he gets the impression that this is wildly

00:14:23.500 unpopular and I haven't been following what the leader of the opposition is saying, if the leader

00:14:29.260 of the opposition is coming out, swinging against this and is touring the province, uh, you know,

00:14:35.920 talking about, you know, our party, we support your freedom to hike and camp, uh, in the woods.

00:14:42.640 Yeah. Well, here's the problem. There's a political dynamic. Houston is the conservative

00:14:46.840 there right and so the you know the liberals or the ndp aren't going to come out and say you know

00:14:52.340 what we support freedom we know they're not going to do that and i know you don't know political but

00:14:59.340 please go ahead well in the house of commons when they brought in bill c2 uh the the strong borders

00:15:05.760 act which should be called the strong surveillance act uh there's an ndp member of parliament jenny

00:15:10.740 kwan represents one of the vancouver uh ridings and came out swinging against it and said it was

00:15:16.340 terrible legislation and violating canadian's privacy and and taking us towards the surveillance

00:15:22.320 state i i don't remember the exact words but i remember it was it was good stuff the same kind

00:15:27.240 of stuff that a lot of other people myself included have been saying so you know i hear you

00:15:33.600 i mean there's a bit of a stereotype that that conservatives are going to be more pro-freedom

00:15:37.320 than liberals and new democrats but it's uh during those years of lockdowns it was every political

00:15:44.580 Party, the Conservatives in Alberta and Manitoba and Ontario, and the Sask Party in Saskatchewan,

00:15:53.420 which is right of centre, and the NDP in British Columbia, and the Coalition Avenir Quebec

00:16:00.960 in Quebec, it was every party in Canada was violating freedoms.

00:16:07.900 And, you know, the conservative-liberal divide, there wasn't much to it in those dark times.

00:16:16.660 I hope there's more of a divide in these dark times.

00:16:22.580 But getting back to this, this is a charter violation, is it not?

00:16:28.640 Well, the Charter Section 6 allows freedom of movement, freedom of entry into Canada and out of Canada.

00:16:37.160 and freedom of movement within Canada.

00:16:39.800 So freedom of movement within Canada,

00:16:41.480 that should include me being able to go for a hike in the mountains

00:16:46.480 as part of my freedom of movement within Canada.

00:16:49.700 It stands to reason.

00:16:51.060 I mean, I'm not aware of a court ruling on this.

00:16:54.240 I don't, you know, I'd be surprised if one existed

00:16:58.220 on this particular point of making it illegal to go hiking on trails.

00:17:03.960 Yeah, you know, it seemed to me that during the COVID response

00:17:07.020 and now you know um they come up with these ridiculous bylaws or laws or mandates or whatever

00:17:13.900 it is and they completely flout the charter of rights and freedoms and because no case exists

00:17:19.720 to fight against it they feel as though they can just go ahead and do this but but again i mean why

00:17:26.140 why is that i mean we've got this document you know that says this is what we can do and unless

00:17:34.400 they invoke the notwithstanding clause or somehow try to invoke section one of that charter they

00:17:40.440 can't do this legally speaking well it's it's a rotten culture it's cultural rot uh you see this

00:17:49.540 with the uneven application of the law where you see for example tamara leach and chris barber

00:17:55.360 in ottawa getting convicted of mischief because of their participation in a peaceful protest

00:18:01.080 uh mischief is the criminal code offense uh of blocking or obstructing or interfering with

00:18:08.980 somebody else's lawful use and enjoyment of property so because some ottawa residents had

00:18:16.000 had a difficulty getting into and out of their places of residence because the streets were

00:18:21.500 clogged up and and they did make great efforts to to always keep one lane open for emergency vehicles

00:18:26.840 But nevertheless, so we got this, you know, people prosecuted and convicted of criminal mischief. But then I saw a video clip just the other day. This happened in March of 2025, a bunch of Muslims praying, shutting down streets in Toronto, not a single one of them charged or arrested.

00:18:43.840 You know, that's also if you block a highway or block a city street, unless you've got, you know, permission from the, you know, you've got a permit, you're going to have a parade or whatever, unless you're, you know, you've got a special exemption. 0.97

00:18:56.720 But if you just block a street in a city, that's criminal behavior, right? 0.95

00:19:04.140 So if you're a Muslim praying in Toronto, you know, it seems to be there's no enforcement against that. 0.91

00:19:13.000 But if you're protesting in Ottawa against lockdowns, you're going to get criminal charges.

00:19:19.120 If you're an Aboriginal in Manitoba, you remember this, July 2021, they tore down a statue of Queen Victoria. 0.93

00:19:26.120 A bunch of Aboriginal protesters who were protesting against residential schools, which, by the way, they have every right to do that.

00:19:33.660 I'm for peaceful protest.

00:19:35.760 We have no issues with that.

00:19:37.060 So they came to the legislature.

00:19:38.460 They're protesting.

00:19:39.160 Okay, thumbs up.

00:19:39.980 So far, so good.

00:19:40.780 and they took some chains and vandalized the statue it could have killed somebody on the way

00:19:46.220 down it looked like it was very heavy nevertheless it crime in broad daylight police stand there

00:19:51.740 watching and then a few months later the crown prosecutors in manitoba announced that nobody is

00:19:56.180 going to be charged or or prosecuted over what is blatantly criminal conduct in broad daylight

00:20:02.000 so where's all that coming from it's a rotten culture it's a breakdown in the rule of law the

00:20:07.280 rule of law says, if you behave badly, you're going to get prosecuted. I don't care what your

00:20:12.920 cause is, pro-Israel, anti-Israel, whatever. If you behave badly, you get prosecuted. If you don't

00:20:20.500 behave badly, you don't get prosecuted. And we don't care what your cause is. That's the way it

00:20:24.400 should be. John, you've been an attorney for a long time. How long has this taken, this culture

00:20:31.940 to degenerate into what it is today.

00:20:34.820 Did you notice it 20 years ago?

00:20:37.180 I noticed bits and pieces of it.

00:20:39.660 There is a bit of woke ideology

00:20:41.300 starting to creep into the courts already

00:20:43.480 where if you're fighting a charter case,

00:20:47.100 if you are female or gay or aboriginal,

00:20:52.420 or if you're deemed to be part of an oppressed minority,

00:20:55.180 your chance of winning is a lot higher

00:20:56.880 than if you're part of the oppressor class.

00:20:59.460 So this is a neo-Marxist ideology. Call it wokeism. Call it equity, diversity, inclusion. And it's the notion that society is group conflict between oppressors and oppressed. And they will be forever at war. And that this is, you understand all of society, culture, politics, everything is seen through this lens of oppression.

00:21:26.060 and either you're an oppressor or you're the oppressed and there's no room in that worldview

00:21:30.440 for respecting and appreciating the inherent dignity of every human being that's sort of

00:21:36.480 you know not a priority it's all about group conflict so I saw some of that infiltration

00:21:42.680 of the ideology was coming into the legal profession and the courts already but it really

00:21:48.860 went berserk in 2020 when you had the Regina chief of police participating in anti-racism

00:21:56.920 protest, public protest that violated the COVID rules. And at the same time, his police officers

00:22:03.120 are handing out tickets to other people who had protested against lockdowns or had, you know,

00:22:10.460 broken lockdown rules because they're attending church or whatever, you know, having Christmas

00:22:15.700 dinner with their parents and they're handing out tickets right if you're breaking the covet rules

00:22:20.580 you're handing out tickets except if you're protesting against racism you can just flaunt

00:22:24.940 the covet rules and have these massive protests where hundreds of people are gathering together

00:22:31.060 outside not a problem in my view but it was contrary to the covet rules and the chief of 0.96

00:22:36.240 police of vagina actually speaks at the rally participates in the rally a total breakdown in

00:22:42.120 the rule of law yeah i i fear that many people especially in the past five years have been

00:22:47.760 losing faith in our institutions not just the justice system the courts but police medical

00:22:53.600 system all of that stuff and government especially so you would think the government would sense that

00:22:59.440 and work to try and correct that problem to gain public favor back but they they only seem to want

00:23:07.160 to make it worse for example if a government decides they want to any government right a

00:23:12.880 municipal government makes a bylaw that violates the charter of rights and freedoms they don't

00:23:17.020 care if a provincial government makes a law that violates the charter they don't care can we talk

00:23:23.240 about maybe changing the system where they have to prove the law they want to input to the system

00:23:28.680 is constitutional before they do it or why is the onus always on the public to have to prove that

00:23:34.540 it's not. Well, that's the way it's always worked with the charter is that it's up to citizens who

00:23:41.380 disagree with the law and believe that it's an unjustified violation of charter rights and

00:23:47.760 freedoms. Look, it's a cultural thing. Again, I mean, Canadians are often electing people

00:23:54.760 or failing to oppose, prevent people from getting elected. There's people at the school board level

00:24:02.000 who are wild-eyed, blue-haired radicals

00:24:06.600 that want to push transgender ideology on children

00:24:09.860 and they want the school board policy. 0.86

00:24:12.440 They want everybody to be waving the rainbow flag

00:24:14.660 and they want everybody to celebrate this ideology

00:24:18.580 and they want the teachers to be telling little Johnny

00:24:22.840 who's five years old in kindergarten

00:24:24.680 that he's not really a boy and he might be a girl

00:24:27.920 and he could become a girl

00:24:29.160 and messing with the minds of children.

00:24:31.360 they want to and and and then people have this victim mentality like oh you know and we're the

00:24:37.100 victim of this horrible school board no you're not the victim it's like why did you allow these

00:24:41.000 people to win the election and why don't you run some good people and and you know tune back in

00:24:46.260 because people say oh school board elections nobody cares well you know we bring it on ourselves

00:24:51.360 and so the same thing municipally federally provincially uh we elect people um i don't

00:24:57.760 think there's a lot of canadian voters asking the candidates you know where do you stand on

00:25:02.760 charter rights and freedoms and and asking pointed questions and making that an election issue i don't

00:25:07.760 think we have a lot of that going on in canada sadly and especially at the municipal level i you

00:25:13.360 know i've heard stories from people who are organizers at the grassroots level and they say

00:25:17.600 that uh the marxist politicians those that run for the liberal parties the green party the ndp

00:25:23.940 they it's almost like a minor league municipal politics to them right it's like the ahl where

00:25:30.080 they get their chops at the lower levels of politics and then maybe they graduate to

00:25:35.280 provincial or federal politics and so it's a training ground for them but people on the

00:25:40.760 opposite side of the ideology don't even think about that not nearly as uh as organized as the

00:25:48.060 people on the left and that is alarming to me very alarming it's partially understandable i mean the

00:25:55.060 oftentimes this is not this is a vague generality it's not always true but but oftentimes it's the

00:26:01.380 it's the people who most cherish their charter rights and freedoms of conscience and religion

00:26:06.880 and the right of parents to be able to raise and educate their own children as the parents deem

00:26:11.640 best not as some you know political activist might want the kids to be indoctrinated it's

00:26:16.860 often these people who are the busiest with uh raising a family paying off a mortgage they have

00:26:22.420 less free time working um and and they're yeah they're working and raising kids and and so on

00:26:29.160 and they have very busy lives and and sometimes it's the people who you know really don't care

00:26:35.560 about charter rights and freedoms and they're just they they worship government statolity you

00:26:40.020 know government is all good government's all wise they want government to control speech

00:26:43.440 they want government to decide what's hateful what's not hateful what's misinformation what's

00:26:47.740 not misinformation what we should be allowed to say what we should not be allowed to say

00:26:51.440 which musicians we should be able to listen to is these people uh they're often they don't have kids

00:26:57.460 and they don't have uh you know or they might not be working as many hours or they just have

00:27:04.360 more free time so those are vague generalities that's not always true but it's um you know and

00:27:11.080 i would say if if you are really busy with work and family you still can carve out an hour or two

00:27:17.240 a month for being involved in politics yeah it's not a spectator sport anymore speaking about

00:27:22.320 musicians and which ones we can listen to and which ones we can't you guys have issued a warning

00:27:27.440 to the city of abbotsford after sean foyte the u.s to quote the left-wing corporate media here

00:27:33.780 mega loving evangelistic christian rocker has been banned from several locations in canada

00:27:44.040 quebec city i believe he did get to play in montreal he did get to play in toronto winnipeg

00:27:49.900 has canceled his permit i hear he's working with the government of alberta to play at the

00:27:54.840 legislature in edmonton i'm not quite sure about that but how and and they're stating that they've

00:28:00.680 got danger concerns here yeah so what i'm what i'm wondering is how and they never explain what

00:28:09.820 the danger is exactly now i i'm going to assume here that they think that well maybe there's going

00:28:15.800 to be some violence from people who oppose this man or maybe they think that his rhetoric about

00:28:22.020 being anti-abortion and believing in jesus christ is dangerous somehow thoughts they have kind of

00:28:30.200 tipped their hats they've talked about the safety and security thing and i'll get into that in a

00:28:34.200 minute but we have statements from uh the the city of montreal i think it was the mayor said

00:28:39.800 you know we believe in uh equity diversity inclusion and tolerance and respect and these

00:28:46.280 are fundamental values and sean feucht uh does not adhere to our fundamental values and so

00:28:53.100 you know we don't we're not going to allow him to uh to to to to do his music here i'm paraphrasing

00:29:01.700 but there was a definite ideological statement saying we don't like the guy's opinions and by

00:29:07.860 the way the cbc it's just uh their smear job is backfiring he's he's a christian singer who does

00:29:15.160 praise and worship songs he happens to also have uh like conservative republican politics political

00:29:22.220 views uh but that his concerts he's primarily he's just uh uh singing songs and talking about

00:29:30.420 religious stuff he's spreading the word man he's he's spreading the word of jesus is what he's

00:29:35.620 doing from everything that i've seen and he's been doing it he's tossing in but what what the cbc does

00:29:41.480 that is so slimy and sleazy but it is backfiring is they say maga musician it makes it sound like

00:29:49.680 he is touring canada preaching the virtues of donald trump yes which and if he was doing that

00:29:56.060 he's got freedom of speech like anybody else the charter replies to everybody on canadian soil

00:30:00.280 not just canadian citizens so um so it's very misleading what the cbc is doing they're trying

00:30:06.760 to portray him as uh uh like he's preaching trump when he's actually he's preaching christ

00:30:12.220 he happens to be a trump supporter you know but anyway the cities have said monckton said you

00:30:19.160 You know, this is contrary to our values and Charlottetown has said it's contrary to our values.

00:30:23.380 So they've made it pretty clear why.

00:30:25.280 But then they throw in this, you know, security stuff, which is also not a valid reason because he and his people are peaceful.

00:30:33.920 There's no record of violence.

00:30:35.120 He gets up there on stage.

00:30:36.260 He sings.

00:30:36.820 People sing.

00:30:37.740 People pray.

00:30:38.680 There's no violence.

00:30:39.440 If there is a security threat, the city should target the people that are causing that security threat and tell them, well, you guys got to pay an invoice for extra policing.

00:30:50.680 That'll make them go away pretty quick.

00:30:52.800 Well, you guys issued a warning letter to the city of Abbotsford, didn't you?

00:30:57.160 Yeah, absolutely.

00:30:58.500 The Abbotsford said there might be safety concerns.

00:31:01.020 And the lawyer who wrote the letter clarified that there are no safety concerns.

00:31:06.380 but you know even if they were you have to if you want to be honest and and uh uh if you want

00:31:14.280 to play fair you have to ask the question where specifically is that threat to security coming

00:31:20.000 from is it coming from antifa is it coming from guys with baseball bats is it coming from guys

00:31:24.100 that are maybe carrying megaphones that are disrupting somebody else's performance which

00:31:29.060 would be criminal code mischief right if you disrupt and interfere with what somebody else

00:31:34.680 is doing lawfully that's criminal code offense so you know if we want to be fair and treat people

00:31:41.100 fairly and if we want to be honest and and you know you have to look at where is the threat to

00:31:47.680 safety coming from is it coming from the people going to listen to a christian music artist or

00:31:55.840 is it coming from other sources is there a constitutional breach involved because you know

00:32:01.860 I mean, the city can use their own best judgment to grant permits or not grant permits, right?

00:32:08.180 And they can pull permits, too, if they come up with a valid reason.

00:32:12.940 Is there any constitutional breach in not allowing this guy to do his thing?

00:32:18.880 Well, absolutely.

00:32:19.680 So you're correct.

00:32:21.660 They could have a valid reason for pulling a concert.

00:32:25.020 So they, um, let's say there was a musician who was always promoting magic mushrooms and, and other drugs and there were any rap artists, man. I mean, like, come on, there's all kinds of violence in those lyrics, if you can call them that. Right. And, and you could think that, wow, that guy's promoting drugs. He's promoting fighting. He's promoting guns. He's promoting hate, but those licenses never get pulled.

00:32:50.900 No, but I'm just coming up with a hypothetical example, like a valid reason for pulling a, pulling a license would be if a, uh, if some musician was, uh, if they were selling drugs at his concert and if he was well known for the fact that whenever you go to this guy's concerts, you can buy illegal drugs, uh, you could buy magic mushrooms.

00:33:14.580 okay i'm just making that up maybe it's not a good example but that would be an example or if

00:33:20.540 if they are always uh people going to that concert they're always carrying baseball bats

00:33:26.380 and they're uh shouting hateful slogans towards visible minorities and threatening to beat people

00:33:32.220 up you know there could be a criminal code hate speech thing so there could be um there could be

00:33:38.580 valid reasons, or maybe they want to have

00:33:40.460 a lion

00:33:42.840 or a tiger on

00:33:44.500 stage that's a dangerous animal. 0.99

00:33:46.580 Again, probably a stupid example, but what I'm trying 0.99

00:33:48.660 to say is there could be valid reasons to cancel 0.99

00:33:50.600 a concert. For

00:33:52.400 the musician in question to

00:33:54.500 be a Donald Trump supporter

00:33:56.220 is not a valid reason

00:33:58.620 for canceling a concert.

00:34:00.780 So the city of Abbotsford

00:34:02.700 has no

00:34:04.620 legal basis for what it's done.

00:34:06.780 Have they responded to your letter?

00:34:09.280 Not yet.

00:34:10.000 It's only been a day and a half.

00:34:11.600 I see.

00:34:12.200 Okay.

00:34:12.480 How long does it usually take?

00:34:13.660 Because, I mean, it's a city.

00:34:14.940 I get that they've got a lot to do.

00:34:17.020 But how long do you expect to wait for this one?

00:34:20.100 Probably until after the concert date is supposed to be, right?

00:34:23.880 Well, I would anticipate, you know, if we're not getting a response within three, four, or five business days,

00:34:33.760 it's time to go to court and make an application.

00:34:36.140 Because the concert's scheduled for the 24th.

00:34:38.580 And we can't wait until after the fact. And, you know, because then you get into the situation where the city of Abbotsford will go into court and say, well, it's moot. It's already been denied. So, you know, we'll, I haven't talked to the lawyer recently, but I would think that if, if there's not movement within a reasonable amount of time, then we'll file court papers and seek to get a declaration on an urgent basis.

00:35:08.580 to, uh, reverse the city's, uh, uh, decision to, to ban the concert.

00:35:15.140 Could you hit him with a civil suit?

00:35:18.120 I mean, you hit him in the wallet. That's a, that's a big deal.

00:35:22.600 That's something that they'll feel for sure. Right.

00:35:25.020 Well, that's true. In, in this situation,

00:35:26.900 I think Sean Feucht runs on donations and I don't know what their revenue

00:35:33.060 loss would be if they had to change venues. I mean,

00:35:36.680 so far in the places where they've been canceled,

00:35:38.700 they have found other venues and I have no idea how much or how little money

00:35:43.580 they've raised, or if they've raised more money or less money because of this.

00:35:46.760 What about reputationally, John? I mean, he's,

00:35:48.880 he's taken a beating up here's reputation from people who read,

00:35:52.000 who read and watch the left-wing corporate media, right?

00:35:54.520 They think he's a demon or something.

00:35:57.020 Well, I, I think, yeah, that would be, well,

00:36:02.940 that'd be up to him of course. I mean, uh,

00:36:04.720 the lawsuits in Canada are a lot harder to start than in the United States, because in Canada,

00:36:11.780 if you sue somebody and lose, you're on the hook for $20,000, $40,000, $30,000, $60,000

00:36:18.440 for the other size legal costs. That's whether you're the plaintiff or the defendant. Either

00:36:22.500 way, if you lose a court case, you're on the hook for tens of thousands of dollars.

00:36:27.200 In the US, generally speaking, there are exceptions, but generally speaking, if you

00:36:31.200 sue somebody and lose, you just walk away from it and you've only spent your own legal dollars.

00:36:37.320 So that's a huge difference. So, you know, if, if, uh, if Sean Feucht was coming to a Canadian

00:36:43.140 lawyer for legal advice, they might tell him, uh, to be cautious about, uh, suing for defamation.

00:36:51.900 And some of the stuff is not really defamatory. It's just more, you know, uh, if they say,

00:36:58.800 Mega loving, right? I mean, all of that. And yeah, it's not, it's such a slippery slope that, isn't it?

00:37:07.500 Well, some of it's accurate. I mean, I spent a few hours looking up Sean Feucht's stuff and I

00:37:14.340 looked at the Wikipedia page, I looked at Sean Feucht's page, I looked at other websites.

00:37:19.740 And, you know, my sense of it is, yes, he is against abortion. Yes, he is pro-Trump. Yes,

00:37:26.760 he is against the transgender ideology he thinks it's bad for children um he's got these generally

00:37:32.360 conservative views on issues that are shared by tens of millions of americans and also shared by

00:37:39.080 millions of canadians so if the media say that he's got these opinions you know if that's to

00:37:46.320 the extent that that's accurate you don't have a cause of action and defamation you just make it

00:37:51.440 sound evil but they make it sound you know but they're pandering to their base right who listens

00:37:57.180 to the cbc i mean not not many canadians do and the ones that do are typically liberal ndp supporters

00:38:03.860 who would be horrified to to think that there is an american loose in our country

00:38:10.280 an american who's who's not you know not in handcuffs who's going around from city to city

00:38:17.780 and he's actually against abortion and he's pro-Trump

00:38:21.160 and thinks that transgender ideology is bad for children,

00:38:25.300 they are horrified by this.

00:38:27.020 So the CBC is pandering to its own base

00:38:29.000 and they got their own echo chamber

00:38:30.780 and they call these opinions, it's hilarious,

00:38:33.440 because they're in their own echo chamber,

00:38:35.760 any conservative or Christian or libertarian viewpoint,

00:38:39.800 they call it controversial.

00:38:42.080 Yes.

00:38:42.720 Because for them it's controversial

00:38:43.960 because they've never met somebody

00:38:45.580 who who has opinions other than their own right that's amazing to me that they just and they look 0.57

00:38:51.860 at us like aliens it's fun there's a mega loving american redneck running loose he's on the loose 0.60

00:38:58.360 he's running amok in canada i want to get to uh bill c2 in just a second but this one i found

00:39:08.320 interesting because he's a friend first of all and you know i've had him on the show a few times

00:39:13.720 cory uh cory morgan and he's such a good guy and he speaks right from the hip the justice center is

00:39:21.100 providing lawyers to calgary journalist cory morgan who's been served with these two tickets

00:39:25.220 these two thousand dollar tickets from six sick of first nation after releasing a video criticizing

00:39:30.240 the reserve system john what's happened there well i saw the video it's probably on the western

00:39:37.060 standard website it's uh i don't know if it's a five minute maybe it's like 10 minutes give or

00:39:43.000 take longer shorter i put it on 1.5 speed to get through it a bit faster but it's it's cory morgan

00:39:48.780 drives on to this aboriginal reserve and just kind of narrates you know he says here you've got

00:39:56.960 you know here's here's some this and that and like not everything was was run down and you know some

00:40:02.680 of it was in good shape but he also uh points to some you know dilapidated you know buildings in

00:40:08.200 disrepair and just kind of a video all of it's public he doesn't go into he doesn't zoom into

00:40:14.820 people's homes he doesn't violate you know the individual privacy of anybody and so he posts

00:40:20.380 this 10 minute video then he gets a ticket in the mail for trespassing and so the in our view

00:40:28.160 it wasn't a trespass because there's no there's no law there's no sign that you can't just drive

00:40:36.160 onto the reserve on, on public roads. It would be like driving around in a neighborhood in,

00:40:41.480 in Winnipeg or Calgary or Montreal. So, um, we're fighting this in court, but he's, he's got the

00:40:48.020 ticket, he thinks, because they don't like that. He went onto the reserve and just made this video

00:40:55.140 of conditions on the reserve, including, you know, the, some negative aspects. And, uh,

00:41:01.940 So, yeah, I think that's it in a nutshell.

00:41:04.120 So it's a reputational damage ticket, then.

00:41:07.220 They're calling trespass.

00:41:09.940 Yeah, I think it's just totally political.

00:41:12.340 You know, they don't like somebody going on to talk about conditions on reserves.

00:41:20.480 And Corey throws in some of his own opinions.

00:41:22.520 You know, I could be off.

00:41:25.140 It was a few months ago that I saw it.

00:41:26.960 But he may have said something like, is current aboriginal policy really helping aboriginal people?

00:41:33.020 You know, maybe the problem is not the lack of money.

00:41:35.800 Maybe it's something else.

00:41:37.360 Maybe, you know, whatever.

00:41:38.780 He's got his political angle to it as well.

00:41:41.540 But, you know, I can understand that they don't want their reserve to be painted in a negative light.

00:41:47.400 I wouldn't like it if somebody, you know, painted my neighborhood in a negative light.

00:41:52.660 however if somebody drove through my neighborhood and did a video and if there if there was something

00:41:58.020 ugly if there was a lot of garbage lying around well if that's reality so be it i can't really

00:42:03.720 complain about that yeah exactly how do you deny it i mean look right there it's not like you 0.71

00:42:08.140 superimposed anything on the video interesting case i'm going to follow that one and uh lastly

00:42:12.880 here this is a big one i think uh bill c2 it's the strong border act here is conservative mp

00:42:19.180 Andrew Lawton talking about it in the House this past May.

00:42:23.760 When we look at part 11 of the bill, which bans cash transactions over $10,000.

00:42:30.120 Every person or entity that is engaged in a business, a profession,

00:42:33.660 or the solicitation of charitable financial donations from the public

00:42:37.160 commits an offense if the person or entity accepts a cash payment,

00:42:41.980 donation, or deposit of $10,000 or more in a single transaction

00:42:46.600 or in a prescribed series of related transactions that total $10,000 or more.

00:42:52.680 And you may say, as the Liberals do, well, why would anyone need to do that?

00:42:56.520 Well, we live in a free society where we do not need to justify our decision

00:43:00.200 to engage in transactions with legal tender to the government.

00:43:04.740 And I'm very aware of the fact that as I speak, the Federal Government,

00:43:08.160 the Liberal Government is actively fighting in court against a Federal Court decision

00:43:14.840 that found its use of the Emergencies Act was illegal in 2022.

00:43:19.840 This is a government that unlawfully and unconstitutionally

00:43:23.000 froze people's bank accounts without due process and without oversight.

00:43:28.280 Now, that sent a chill throughout the country

00:43:30.880 as people realized that this is a government

00:43:32.800 that would use its power without regard for the law.

00:43:37.300 So I do not accept that this government is permitted to say

00:43:40.080 just trust us with putting a further restriction in place

00:43:44.680 on how canadians transact i noticed that you put a video up on the website the jccf.ca website

00:43:55.100 talking about that what are your thoughts well to ban cash transactions i mean yes it's true that

00:44:02.820 um you know we there are not many canadians that will use cash in those amounts right

00:44:08.740 maybe occasionally for a car purchase in some situations if you don't want to do an e-transfer

00:44:13.420 or you don't trust the transfer protest, or you don't process rather, or you don't want to mess

00:44:20.840 around with checks, right? Because people often are, you're buying a car from strangers. So

00:44:25.120 people will use cash for cars. But once this is criminal to use $10,000 cash or in a series too,

00:44:37.620 That's interesting, right?

00:44:39.000 So if somebody was donating $1,000 a month cash to a charity, by November, actually by

00:44:49.280 October, they'd be committing a crime because it's a series of $1,000 a month, and now they've

00:44:55.700 donated $10,000 cash to a charity.

00:44:58.080 The problem is once that's on the books and it becomes criminal to use cash, which is

00:45:02.920 very clearly is in bill c2 they can lower the amount to 5 000 then uh 1 000 and then 500 and

00:45:09.740 then 100 you know because you don't need more than 100 you know you're going to a garage sale uh you

00:45:15.760 know you're not going to be spending that much money and before you know it cash is illegal and

00:45:21.020 this is how it happens it's step by step by step so if you if we acquiesce to criminalizing

00:45:27.120 legitimate purchases, donations, whatever, donations to charities, if we acquiesce to that

00:45:38.500 and it's on the books, it's going to be very easy to lower that to $5,000, $1,000, and then zero.

00:45:44.640 And cash becomes illegal. And now you've got the government, central bank, digital currency

00:45:49.020 controlling everything. So this is step one for that, possibly. And Quebec's Bill 54,

00:45:55.480 now empowers police officers to assume that people carrying over $2,000 are connected to

00:46:02.640 illegal activities and they can seize that cash. That's crazy. Well, that's Quebec right now. It's

00:46:10.500 on Charter Rights and Freedoms, possibly the worst province in Canada. They're the only ones,

00:46:17.740 to my knowledge, that had a nighttime curfew, even though the chief medical officer and the

00:46:21.740 premier admitted that, that there's no relationship between a curfew and stopping COVID. They had no

00:46:26.940 idea, but you know, well, it might help. So we'll just violate people's right to go for a walk,

00:46:31.780 you know, after 8 PM or whatever the cutoff time was just absolutely outrageous. So yeah,

00:46:36.980 in Quebec, if you've got $2,000 cash, you know, and I, I don't have a problem and it's, it's already

00:46:43.000 been, you know, part of our legal system for a long time. If, if, if police, you know, find you,

00:46:50.260 Maybe they pull you over for a speeding ticket, but I don't know.

00:46:53.000 They see who you are and, you know, if they have reasonable grounds to suspect that these

00:47:00.820 are proceeds of crime, they could seize it temporarily and that's fine.

00:47:04.960 I don't have a problem with that.

00:47:06.000 If they have reasonable grounds to suspect it, they could seize it.

00:47:08.700 But what does reasonable suspicion even mean, though?

00:47:11.600 I mean, you get some corrupt cop who says, yeah.

00:47:13.720 But it's the onus.

00:47:14.560 It's the onus, right?

00:47:15.580 So if the police said, you've got $2,000 cash, we think that you're a drug dealer.

00:47:20.260 uh, we're going to take that into our possession, but then the police have to prosecute you for

00:47:27.100 whatever the crime is. And if the police don't prosecute you, then, um, sorry, if they don't

00:47:34.200 get a conviction, like the onus is on the police to prove that those are the proceeds of crime.

00:47:38.920 That's the way it should be. Okay. And if they fail to prove that you get the money back in

00:47:43.480 Quebec, the onus is on the citizen. If I was maybe at a church bingo or something, and I happened

00:47:50.160 to have you know or some other charity fundraiser and there's the that you know we're selling 50 50

00:47:55.940 tickets or this or that or whatever and and i happen to have uh you know two and a half thousand

00:48:01.380 dollars cash that's not impossible to to have that as part of a fundraiser if i get pulled over by

00:48:07.200 police for a speeding ticket uh they can assume that this is the uh the onus is on me to prove

00:48:14.940 that it's not crime that's the wrong part it's the onus yeah you know i ever seen those videos

00:48:20.580 of the auditors in the united states these guys who go and they actually try to provoke a cop

00:48:25.980 into breaking the constitution down there by filming on a public sidewalk or something some

00:48:30.880 big fat cop walks up to the guy and says what are you doing well i'm filming well show me some id

00:48:37.160 the guy says i don't have to show you id this is not a stop and show state get out of here

00:48:42.680 Right. And then the cop says, yeah, you do. Because we suspect you of a crime. Well, can you articulate what the crime is? And the cop never can. But things are different here in Canada than they are in the United States. And I totally understand that police do need certain latitude to be able to do their job up here. But what is too much? I mean, if a cop says, I suspect you of being a drug dealer and you've got two thousand and one dollars on you, then they can seize it.

00:49:09.840 Now, when do they have to prove that you're a bad guy?

00:49:14.440 Is it before the thing ever reaches court or is it during court, which means you got to be dragged through a long legal process?

00:49:24.480 Well, the standard in place in criminal law is that a policeman needs reasonable and probable grounds to, you know, to charge, to investigate and so on.

00:49:38.840 reasonable and probable grounds so it's a fairly high standard it can't just be a mirror

00:49:42.920 oh you know my spidey sense uh was that you know this guy was up to no good that's not good enough

00:49:49.280 so how do we explain check stops then i mean like police just randomly pull over cars thinking well

00:49:54.900 you know there's drinking and driving going on it's for your safety they have no reasonable

00:49:59.460 articulable suspicion there do they well they need reasonable and probable grounds to demand a

00:50:07.600 breath sample so at least that's what something going on a few years back and i've forgotten the

00:50:15.360 the nuances of it where they were uh i'm glad they stopped doing this but they were doing

00:50:19.620 breathalyzer tests on everybody that they pulled over for uh for speeding tickets and i i think

00:50:24.520 they've stopped doing that because that was just wicked that even if they had no grounds to suspect

00:50:29.660 somebody was drinking it just became this par for the course i'm pulling over for speed ticket

00:50:33.500 Oh, by the way, you've got to blow into this device. So they've stopped doing that. But for a check stop, they need reasonable and probable grounds to demand a breath sample. So, you know, that's a standard there.

00:50:50.280 But with the provincial law in Quebec, it's just, you know, onus on the citizen to prove that the $2,000 are not the proceeds of crime.

00:51:00.440 And to hire a lawyer to get the money back, you're going to be spending probably more than $2,000 by the time you figure that out.

00:51:09.220 Or, you know, for the rest of us, it's $10,000.

00:51:12.660 What is the government's right?

00:51:14.140 Have you read the bill?

00:51:16.480 Does Carney, I haven't, I don't recall him even speaking.

00:51:19.200 fighting crime we got to fight crime don't you know it is we got to stop the we got to stop the

00:51:24.880 money laundering and so but what what Andrew Lawton uh mentioned in the House of Commons

00:51:31.600 the member of parliament and uh it's this whole need thing right it's man we're going to be living

00:51:39.640 in a in a fascist hellhole if if the politicians get to determine our rights and freedoms based on

00:51:46.760 need. I mean, when you get right down to it, what do you really need? You need food, water,

00:51:51.980 shelter, so you don't freeze to death in a Canadian winter. You don't really need anything

00:51:55.720 else. So if need is going to be the standard for the laws, and then everybody can just get

00:52:01.260 locked up in a prison cell, because what do you really need other than food, water, and shelter?

00:52:07.160 You know, maybe a pair of underwear when you're in prison, so you're not naked. But this is really

00:52:12.200 creepy. In a free country, you know, we don't need to listen to classical music. Like I wouldn't die

00:52:18.320 if I, you know, if I couldn't listen to classical music, we don't need to go downhill skiing. We

00:52:22.720 don't need to fly to Mexico in the winter. We don't really need to fly across the country to

00:52:27.960 see our grandkids because, you know, we can see them by Zoom. Like the list of what you don't

00:52:32.940 need is endless, right? So we have to be vigilant when a politician says, well, you don't need

00:52:37.100 ten thousand dollars because you can use a check or credit card e-transfer it's like that's not

00:52:42.820 the point if i want to use ten thousand dollars cash to buy a car uh that's that's my right

00:52:48.640 yeah you know that's part of being in a free country the premier of nova scotia was saying

00:52:53.060 a couple of days ago he said well you know uh you know this is going to affect very few people i

00:52:57.200 mean who really needs he said i was taking notes on this i saw the clip not necessary it's not

00:53:02.920 necessary to go hiking and camping and he's entirely correct it's not necessary i mean you

00:53:09.420 can you can enjoy the great outdoors in your backyard and you can appreciate natural beauty

00:53:14.500 on your screen you know there's there's great youtube videos of of the most astounding you know

00:53:20.800 the the amazon in south america and and their deserts and mountains i mean you know you don't

00:53:27.240 need to go into the woods by yourself no no scary it's uh i i love doing it there's one more thing

00:53:35.480 uh before we let you go tonight john and that is the case of jessica yaniv slash jessica simpson

00:53:41.400 who uh simpson yeah miss simpson who uh who was told that no she can't enter the beauty pagets

00:53:51.820 in ontario i thought that was a bit of good news but this person keeps coming back for more doesn't

00:53:56.620 he slash she. Yeah. Well, Jessica Simpson, formerly Jonathan Yaniv, became quite famous

00:54:04.880 around 2018 when Yaniv would phone these women in BC who provided a Brazilian bikini wax

00:54:12.920 service to women. And Yaniv would phone up and say, I'd like to book an appointment.

00:54:18.860 And the woman, and a lot of these were immigrant women. English was their second language. They

00:54:23.200 worked from home some of them had small children at home so they're serving a female clientele

00:54:28.020 to do the brazilian bikini wax so um the woman would say to yaniv uh would hear a male voice

00:54:36.640 and say you know uh sorry we don't do men and yaniv would say well i'm a woman and he would

00:54:43.920 then file a human rights complaint because the human rights legislation protects against

00:54:49.200 discrimination based on gender identity, gender expression. So, you know, there you go. And in

00:54:54.860 some cases he extorted thousands of dollars from some of these women where he said, well, you know,

00:55:00.220 you pay me $2,000 and I'll withdraw the complaint. One of the women that we represented,

00:55:06.760 she had gone to 13 different law firms, all of whom had turned her down because they were scared

00:55:11.760 of being called transphobic. So rotten culture. This is not the good old days where the lawyer

00:55:18.240 would you know take on the case just on a as a matter of principle no matter how unpopular

00:55:24.580 you know he'd provide criminal defense for some accused you know child kidnapper rapist murderer

00:55:30.500 bad guy just on the principle that the guy is entitled to a fair trial whatever right so um

00:55:37.460 gone are those days so now the lawyers are scared of being called transphobic anyway we we uh we

00:55:43.560 were successful in defeating Yaniv's claims. In 2019, Yaniv applied to participate in a beauty

00:55:52.100 pageant, galaxy pageants based in Toronto. They have girls as young as six. They have

00:55:57.840 change rooms where no men are allowed. No fathers, no male guardians, no older brothers,

00:56:05.500 no men in the change room females only they did allow if a guy had fully transitioned and had all

00:56:15.560 of his male parts removed then that person could participate in the beauty pageant

00:56:21.640 including going into the change room still not a woman Yaniv at that time I don't know

00:56:27.640 where things are at now but but at that time Yaniv had not had the surgery Yaniv had male parts

00:56:34.400 and was denied admission into the Galaxy pageants,

00:56:42.020 filed a human rights complaint,

00:56:43.800 and this was ultimately dismissed about a week,

00:56:48.560 just within the past week or 10 days.

00:56:50.920 Five years?

00:56:51.580 How long has this case been going?

00:56:53.320 Six years.

00:56:53.820 Six years.

00:56:54.540 Five and a half, six years has been going on.

00:56:56.760 And it was dismissed on technical grounds

00:56:59.040 because he had repeatedly missed filing deadlines.

00:57:04.220 If it had actually gone to a hearing, I sure hope that our side would have won, but I can't

00:57:09.420 even guarantee it because these human rights commissions and tribunals are running amok

00:57:14.460 so much, straighting away from their original intention.

00:57:17.920 Yeah, well, I was just about to ask these human rights commissions in each province

00:57:21.960 in Manitoba, they've now got a regulation that says if you intentionally misgender somebody,

00:57:27.880 you can be fined $20,000.

00:57:29.500 dollars. I find that outrageous considering the fact that we do have freedom of speech and freedom

00:57:34.440 of thought in this country. People got to get on the phone, contact their MLA and say, this is not

00:57:41.060 right. Whether I, it's one thing for people to ask. It's another thing for people to demand,

00:57:49.180 right? So transgender guy who believes that he's a woman, feels like a woman, dresses like a woman, 1.00

00:57:55.220 you know could ask that that other people refer to her and she okay and most people will be we're

00:58:05.920 all canadians are very polite most most of us the vast majority of people would would go along with

00:58:10.700 that i think it's time to get rid of that politeness uh thing for now but it's different

00:58:15.340 if you're demanding it and if you're saying well if you refuse to do that you're going to get fined

00:58:18.700 twenty thousand dollars and i'm going to launch a human rights prosecution against you yeah like

00:58:22.880 This is the law against rudeness, essentially.

00:58:26.100 I mean, if you want to call it that, I'm calling it reality.

00:58:29.980 I mean, it's, yeah.

00:58:32.000 So this is up to, you know, blame the politicians.

00:58:35.460 This is not some accident, okay?

00:58:37.820 So in Manitoba, the government could amend the Manitoba Human Rights Act

00:58:44.620 or Human Rights Code, whatever it's called.

00:58:46.560 Every province has one.

00:58:47.500 amend that and and and bring some clarity to um to say that you know no you're not going to get

00:58:54.820 in trouble but it sounds like this particular government's doing the opposite and uh have they

00:59:00.500 changed the legislation in manitoba to now make it they introduced it back in april and i'm not

00:59:08.180 sure if it's passed through yet but if it hasn't it's going to soon so here we are and i'm not sure

00:59:13.480 if it's going to happen in other provinces probably with left-leaning governments you can expect that

00:59:18.400 kind of thing how's the book going john corrupted by fear how the charter was betrayed and what

00:59:22.760 canadians can do about it well sold over 3 000 copies and it's available in audiobook as well as

00:59:30.760 the um the paperback and the uh the kindle electronic version so three different ways

00:59:38.280 to get it and uh i'm getting a lot of positive feedback it's it's got some interesting history

00:59:44.660 of fascism in europe in the 1930s and then goes through the uh covid and lockdown years in canada

00:59:52.800 and how some of the uh court provides examples about how some of the courts are just writing

00:59:59.040 the media narrative into their judgments and it's not supported by evidence so interesting read

01:00:05.480 yeah absolutely and amazon.ca you guys if you want to go pick it up john thank you very much

01:00:11.000 and also you can make donations to the jccf at the website jccf.ca help them continue fighting

01:00:17.920 these ridiculous cases that are happening more and more and more it seems i want you to come

01:00:22.280 back soon so we can talk about more of these ridiculous cases in the not too distant future

01:00:27.600 thank you john for joining the show tonight really appreciate it thanks so much have a great rest of

01:00:32.200 the night. You too. John Carpe is the president and the founder of the Justice Center for

01:00:38.480 Constitutional Freedoms. And now here's four minutes of Pierre Paliyev telling us how much

01:00:44.380 tax we pay. One, congratulations, you're spending more money on taxes than on food, clothing and

01:00:50.100 shelter combined. That is the finding of the Fraser Institute's July 22nd, 2025 report.

01:00:56.440 And it reports on last year, which shows that the tax burden of Canadians is up

01:01:02.200 2,784% since 1961, so just over 60 years ago. And that bill is vastly outstripping the bills that

01:01:13.500 you pay for everything else. I'm going to quote directly from my laptop on this report. Taxes

01:01:17.860 have grown much more rapidly than any other single expenditure for average Canadian families.

01:01:22.360 Expenditures on shelter are up 2,100%. Food up 927%. Clothing up 460%. But the tax bill is up

01:01:32.020 to 2,784%. So an absolutely staggering amount of money that is going to taxes. So the average

01:01:40.900 family is spending 42% now on taxes. That is compared to 35% on food, clothing, and shelter.

01:01:48.780 So you have to ask yourself, are you getting more from the government than you're getting

01:01:52.240 from your private expenditures on food, clothing, and shelter? I have a hard time believing it.

01:01:57.280 There are so many different taxes. We've got income tax, payroll tax, health tax,

01:02:01.600 sales tax, property tax, profit tax, liquor, tobacco, amusement, and other excise taxes,

01:02:07.660 fuel, motor, vehicle, license fees, and then other taxes. Then you've got natural resource taxes.

01:02:14.740 These are the royalties that are paid when companies extract resources from the ground.

01:02:20.360 And then, of course, there are import duties that you pay when you buy things from abroad.

01:02:26.260 All of those fees, charges, and other levies amounting to a tax bill that is far greater than anything you spend on anything else.

01:02:36.060 In fact, the report goes even further.

01:02:38.800 On page six, they show the overall tax bill that includes the deficit.

01:02:44.680 Now, the reason they do that is that deficits are taxes.

01:02:48.240 You're taxed two ways through government deficit spending.

01:02:51.460 One is through the deferred bill that you'll get later on, because, of course, deficits do have to be paid back one way or the other, and that bill does come to you.

01:03:00.700 And the second way the deficits charge you is they increase the money supply, which causes inflation, and that inflation does charge you its tax as well.

01:03:09.220 And they show here that since 1961, that bill has grown dramatically as well to the point where it is now higher than in any year except for the 2020 COVID year, which is, of course, a very unusual year indeed.

01:03:26.420 But the point is that government's insatiable appetite is causing you a tremendous burden.

01:03:33.500 It's like the private sector is a skinny man and the government is a fat man on his back.

01:03:39.980 And the private sector is carrying that increasingly fat man up an increasingly steep hill. 0.83

01:03:45.320 It's time to put him on the diet.

01:03:47.220 It's time to reduce the cost of government.

01:03:49.180 We need to cut bureaucracy, consultants, foreign aid, corporate welfare, and countless other things to bring down the cost of government.

01:03:57.140 We also need a dollar-for-dollar law, a law that will require government to find a dollar of savings for every new dollar of spending.

01:04:03.040 so that there's an imposed discipline, an either-or trade-off required.

01:04:07.840 So you spend more here, you have to spend less there.

01:04:10.100 That's what you do in your household budget.

01:04:12.400 And only then will we be able to reduce this insane bill

01:04:16.360 that is falling on your shoulders and crippling your family's ability to succeed.

01:04:22.260 Low taxes mean that you get rewards for your work,

01:04:25.140 that your investments pay off, that people are incentivized to create more,

01:04:29.960 to grow more food, produce more energy, build more homes.

01:04:33.040 invent new life-changing technologies. All of these things should be rewarded and we should

01:04:38.960 aim to make us ourselves one of the lowest tax nations in the world. That would free up a lot

01:04:44.700 of money for you to do great things for yourself and for your family. And that is what we are

01:04:49.240 fighting for as conservatives, smaller governments with big citizens. Thank you very much.

01:04:54.420 right so Pierre Polyev's got a big by-election he absolutely has to win coming up in a week

01:05:03.380 and a half in Battle River Crowfoot now it shouldn't be too big a deal for him to win it

01:05:08.960 even though they're doing it differently in that riding this time around because of all of the

01:05:14.780 longest ballot participants over 200 of them so there will not be a ballot per se the traditional

01:05:22.280 ballot that we see in most elections, this is going to be a ballot where you have to write in

01:05:28.760 your candidate's name as well as you can. I mean, Pierre Polyev is not easy to spell for a lot of

01:05:36.340 people, but Elections Canada says, well, as long as we know who you intend to vote for, you can't

01:05:41.800 just write down the name of the party that you intend to vote for. You have to write down the

01:05:47.860 name of the candidate and the party that you have to vote for. So this could screw things up a little

01:05:54.820 bit. So even though the conservatives in the last election won that riding with 85 percent of the

01:06:00.540 vote, it's possible, I suppose, with this glitch, that Polyev could actually lose this election.

01:06:10.680 He's running up against Grant Abraham and 225 others. Grant Abraham, the leader of the United

01:06:17.540 party of canada who's going to come on the show next monday night i like grant he's got a lot of

01:06:21.380 great ideas he's full of integrity shoots from the hip and you're going to enjoy in case you

01:06:26.080 haven't seen grant before but anyway if polyev loses in this by-election and many of you right

01:06:33.920 now are saying he's not going to lose there's no way he's going to lose but what if what if he does

01:06:37.980 if polyev loses he would have to resign as the leader of the conservative party of canada right

01:06:44.520 He would have to. I mean, you lose your own seat that you've held for 20 years, and then you go

01:06:50.600 ahead and lose a riding that's been automatic for your party. Come on. You've lost the confidence

01:06:58.640 of the people. You've got to go. And so naturally, he would step down. Who would replace him?

01:07:07.640 If you've been watching the show for the past couple of weeks, you know my theory.

01:07:11.080 there's a guy in Ontario who's the premier there now

01:07:14.880 who's been making a pretty big noise on the national

01:07:18.660 and international stage regarding these tariffs and Donald Trump

01:07:22.660 in the last few months. And here he is, Doug Ford

01:07:27.020 here he is again this morning with Wolf Blitzer on CNN

01:07:30.600 piping off at the worst possible time. Watch.

01:07:35.060 General impression of Trump in Canada.

01:07:37.180 he's probably the most disliked politician in the world in canada because he's attacked his

01:07:44.740 closest uh family member and that's the way we look upon it and when i talk to the governors

01:07:49.340 and senators and congress uh people uh even republicans totally disagree but they're too

01:07:55.140 scared to come out and say anything uh because the president will go after them outside of a

01:08:00.020 few senators and i want to thank them for for coming out and stand standing with not just

01:08:05.860 american people but their closest friends and and allies which is canada and again we we love

01:08:12.380 the americans it's unfortunate president trump decided to go down this road i mean could you

01:08:19.080 make it any worse doug are you trying to do that is that what you're trying to do you're trying to

01:08:25.520 sabotage any possible hope of of deal to get rid of these 35 percent tariffs i don't think the

01:08:32.340 liberals will be able to do much about it regardless, but you don't need somebody like

01:08:37.060 that sticking a stone in the spokes. But I believe that he will be, if Polyev loses

01:08:50.560 in this by-election, that Doug Ford is going to throw his big fat hat in the ring

01:08:56.380 to be the leader of the conservative party of canada and that way it's truly a unit party

01:09:03.740 system if it's not already and i believe it is to some point but i also believe that pierre

01:09:08.760 paliev is truly at heart a true blue conservative but they got something on him because there's no

01:09:16.700 way that the conservatives would have lost this last election i think it was amrit bearing

01:09:27.580 from last week it was outstanding this guy amrit he and he'll be back on the show as well he has

01:09:34.140 been thinking about this long and hard for quite some time you can absolutely tell so go back and

01:09:39.400 watch that show in case you missed it um tonight on the extension un secrets from a high level

01:09:44.920 insider exactly what goes on in that big building in new york anyway mark carney plans to spend

01:09:55.800 millions propagandizing young canadians about climate emergencies a story from the calgary sun

01:10:03.840 in a recent announcement the carney government detailed more than 14.4 million in new spending

01:10:10.400 for 17 projects to empower young Canadians

01:10:13.080 to address climate change.

01:10:18.700 The 14.4...

01:10:20.060 I want all of the taxes I've ever paid

01:10:22.440 back with interest.

01:10:27.060 The 14.4 million

01:10:28.920 is just the latest round of funding

01:10:31.360 out of a plan,

01:10:32.300 $206 million over five years.

01:10:34.740 The purpose of the Climate Action

01:10:36.860 and Awareness Fund,

01:10:37.860 as the government calls it,

01:10:39.020 is essentially to increase public concern about climate change.

01:10:44.880 You can bet directly from Impact Canada through the Privy Council office.

01:10:50.140 To justify this $14.4 million in spending,

01:10:52.980 Liberal MP Talib Nur-Muhammad said at this critical juncture,

01:10:58.940 when our planet is facing a climate emergency,

01:11:01.420 environmental literacy for young people is essential.

01:11:03.740 I cannot continue.

01:11:06.300 So I'm not going to take that story any further.

01:11:09.020 because it's all nonsense, as you know.

01:11:10.620 But here's another one that's equally chilling.

01:11:13.500 From DigWatch, dig.watch,

01:11:18.780 EU proposal to scan private messages gains support.

01:11:24.020 You know the fondness that Mark Carney has for the European Union.

01:11:29.100 19 EU states back a proposal to scan private messages on encrypted apps

01:11:34.900 before encryption, raising major privacy concerns.

01:11:39.020 the european union's chat control proposal is gaining traction 19 member states now support

01:11:47.040 this plan to scan all private messages from october apps like whatsapp signal telegram

01:11:52.820 must scan all messages photos and videos on users devices before encryption

01:11:58.720 france denmark belgium hungary sweden italy and spain all back the measure while germany has yet

01:12:06.180 to decide. I'm surprised that Hungary is backing this. The proposal could pass by mid-October under

01:12:12.360 the EU's qualified majority voting system if Germany joins. The initiative aims to prevent

01:12:17.840 child sex abuse material. Right. But it sparked concerns over mass surveillance and the erosion

01:12:24.940 of digital privacy. In addition to scanning, the proposal would introduce mandatory age

01:12:29.280 verification, which could remove anonymity on messaging platforms. Critics argue the plan

01:12:35.120 amounts to real-time surveillance of private conversations and threatens fundamental freedoms.

01:12:40.420 Telegram founder Pavel Durov recently warned of a societal collapse in France due to censorship

01:12:46.340 and regulatory pressure. He disclosed attempts by French officials to censor political content

01:12:51.900 on his platform, which he refused to comply with. And don't think for one second that Mark Carney

01:12:59.540 doesn't want to do that very same thing here in Canada. We'll keep our eyes open for any movement

01:13:04.020 on anything like that that comes from our government.

01:13:07.060 You can expect when Parliament resumes next month

01:13:10.380 that they're going to be trying to bring back Bill C-63,

01:13:13.260 and maybe they'll throw something like that in there as well.

01:13:18.160 That's it for the show tonight, you guys.

01:13:20.460 I love you all, and I appreciate you all,

01:13:23.140 and I will talk to you again on Monday night at 8 o'clock Central.

01:13:26.540 For all of you all-access Nighthawks,

01:13:30.500 secrets of the un from a high level insider coming up in two minutes we'll be right back

01:14:00.500 We'll be right back.

01:14:30.500 Thank you.
