00:01:30.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Shadow Davis Show.
00:01:44.900 This is Wednesday, June the 3rd, 2026.
00:01:47.480 We're out again in all of the social media.
00:01:50.980 So we're on Facebook.
00:01:51.920 We're on YouTube tonight.
00:01:53.180 We're on Twitch even.
00:01:55.000 I know, right?
00:01:55.860 We're on X.
00:01:56.760 We're on Telegram.
00:01:58.300 As we are every single night.
00:01:59.840 the shadow at night community on telegram all those awesome all-access night hawks there
00:02:04.160 very welcoming crew don't forget to go ahead and join that group we're on rumble tonight and of
00:02:10.220 course the home page shadow davis.com and the reason for that is we have a special guest on
00:02:15.320 the show tonight i always assume when i start a show every single night that there's at least
00:02:21.540 one person out there who may not know everything everything that we know and i also assume
00:02:29.420 that there are different people out there watching with different levels of knowledge about what's
00:02:34.840 actually going on in the world. Some people think it's a government problem. Some people think that
00:02:40.540 it goes all the way to hell. Some people think it's aliens. Other people think it's the royalty.
00:02:47.320 Some people say it's the Knights Templar, the Illuminati. Everybody's got their own opinions.
00:02:54.800 so when we talk about universal ostrich farm and there's going to be some people right now
00:03:01.020 saying to themselves yeah we know everything that happened i know for a fact that there's
00:03:05.620 going to be some people who are unclear on what happened there we're going to talk a little bit
00:03:10.200 about that tonight with our guest ali turnbull but we're also going to talk about something that
00:03:17.380 has been bothering me for quite some time and i understand the destruction of over 300 ostriches
00:03:24.800 was incredibly harmful, not just to the family,
00:03:29.720 even though to them it would be the most harmful,
00:03:32.480 to people all across the country who witnessed this
00:03:35.960 and watched this happen over the course of a month and a half,
00:03:41.120 late last year, near Edgewood, British Columbia.
00:03:44.300 But when an armed force comes onto your property
00:03:51.200 and just takes it over that is cause for alarm not just concern that's cause for alarm
00:03:59.520 that's something i've been trying to point out for the last few months
00:04:04.540 people were not alarmed enough about that as they were about the ostriches and i totally like i said
00:04:11.800 i totally understand that you guys were alarmed that cfia could order the rcmp and whatever hired
00:04:18.640 goon squad to come in and kill over 300 ostriches in the course of one night using over 1000 shots
00:04:24.320 i get that that is completely upsetting but what about your home actually being taken over by an
00:04:33.040 armed force in canada listen to the words of our national anthem true north strong and free
00:04:43.440 really look what they're doing or trying to do right now with free speech in this country
00:04:48.000 We've got news on that coming up later on.
00:04:50.480 So we're going to bring on our guest, Allie Turnbull,
00:04:53.460 who's cousins, actually, with Katie Pisidney.
00:04:55.960 Of course, you guys know Katie.
00:04:58.260 And she's going to tell everything that happened from her perspective
00:05:02.220 because she and her parents own property directly adjacent.
00:05:07.940 We're going to show you two on a map,
00:05:09.700 directly adjacent to Universal Ostrich Farm,
00:05:12.100 and they had their property occupied as well.
00:05:14.940 We're coming right back with Allie Turnbull here on the Shadow Davis Show right after this.
00:05:44.940 We'll be right back.
00:06:14.940 hello Allie thanks for coming on tonight hi so how are you after all of this is it still
00:06:36.400 PTSD? Oh, yeah, still PTSD. I'm not very good, actually. I am having a hard time
00:06:46.260 readjusting to life after what happened. I'm having a hard time just sort of navigating the
00:06:55.600 world, knowing that that could happen. And I have a lot of anxiety now, a lot of fear
00:07:02.380 that i didn't really have um necessarily the same way as i do now and i have a lot of nightmares
00:07:08.640 as well um it's just been a tough grieving period can you you know you seem pretty
00:07:18.720 emotional right now and i don't want to go too deep if you're not ready to do it are you okay
00:07:22.680 with all of this okay um you know we heard a lot of different perspectives about what happened at
00:07:29.720 the farm last year live as it was happening in many cases. But your perspective is a unique one
00:07:39.340 because, you know, while you are family, you know, Katie and Karen, all of that, your cousin and your
00:07:45.440 aunt. And, you know, I spent significant time with your mom and your stepdad as well. I mean,
00:07:51.280 I think they're great people. And that place that you guys have there, really cool little getaway
00:07:57.600 from all of the activity, right? You're behind that big, huge tree line right next to the creek
00:08:01.820 that flows through the property. But your property was taken over by the RCMP and the CFIA. And you
00:08:13.220 didn't even know about this, did you? We had no idea. Yeah. We had never spoken to the CFIA
00:08:18.540 ever until well after they had already seized everything. So were you there when this happened
00:08:25.840 or did you just kind of come in a couple of days later to find out in that moment like can you
00:08:30.320 please go ahead and and give us everything that happened to you and Margaret and Trevor right from
00:08:36.620 the beginning of your experience yeah um so I had actually just left a few days before they seized
00:08:43.600 everything we weren't sure we knew they were they were going to come at some point but we weren't
00:08:48.560 sure exactly when so I had just left days before and then we thought that they were coming when I
00:08:56.740 had I was driving and I almost turned around but then we thought there was a little bit more time
00:09:02.180 so when they seized everything we just watched it on live stream we were watching five different
00:09:10.260 people's live streams at all times we were in a family group chat with everybody updating by the
00:09:16.440 minute on what was going on, where at all times we were really, really tuned in because it affected
00:09:23.840 our family. And we have been sort of waiting to see what would happen to them. We had no idea that
00:09:31.880 anything was really going to happen to us beyond, you know, like needing to be there to support our
00:09:38.040 family. I want to throw this map up that you sent me earlier today. And thank you for doing that,
00:09:42.700 the way because it would have completely slipped my mind but this is an overview of the property
00:09:47.740 here so can you take us through this i mean this is the highway here that's right and then the
00:09:54.620 junction is just to the right yeah so you guys follow my cursor here okay so this is the highway
00:09:59.180 we're coming down through the mountains and right here is the turn off onto land yule road right
00:10:05.420 here yeah that's where the mailboxes are and everything then we come through here and we're
00:10:12.920 coming along this road where is the neighbor that one neighbor that was you're right pretty much
00:10:19.160 there you're pretty much this is her here in the fire hall that old fire hall is around here as
00:10:23.980 well yeah the fire hall is kind of closer to the the junction up on that corner but yeah that
00:10:29.180 property down there is that neighbor okay and then we're moving up here and so especially above
00:10:35.840 your cursor is where the ostriches were right in here yep and here's the house and then down here
00:10:45.240 is where we had the big party last year the big concert um yeah okay so this is the property here
00:10:52.000 if you guys can follow my cursor right here this is where you and your mom and dad have have your
00:10:57.340 your property right there am i correct yep that's right that's exactly right well it goes
00:11:01.220 from that road like basically that little corner that you were on there on langel road right where
00:11:07.860 it splits from ostrich to us from there directly up to the highway is ours all the way up to here
00:11:15.600 and across onto the to the right side okay and it goes just to not all the way to that corner but
00:11:22.800 almost all the way to the corner it's 28 acres i didn't realize you guys had so much space up
00:11:28.480 there that's cool yeah rcmp take all of it they took all of it yeah yeah and actually this is
00:11:34.980 the apple maps satellite map which they updated while they had while they were occupying it which
00:11:40.620 is kind of crazy timing so are you trying to say if we zoom in on this we're going to see the rcmp
00:11:46.340 in there yeah yeah wow yeah it's a little bit blurry but they're on that lower part there and
00:11:56.740 that'll be the ostrich pens above so this this was where they did the kill box here yeah if you keep
00:12:04.260 going you're going to see the kill box actually the kill pen if you keep going straight up and keep
00:12:09.300 going a little further and then you start to see um that's where their motorhome was and to the
00:12:17.060 left a bit is the kill pen right over here yeah wow you know what this is terrible to see this
00:12:26.500 it's actually sick yeah it's it it really freaked me out when i first started looking at it because
00:12:31.840 you can see how their motorhome is set up their vehicles they had a little tent right right that
00:12:37.980 had access to the ostriches, they could just divert them out if they wanted to directly into
00:12:43.720 their little tent. Um, they were set up really conveniently to have full-time access to those
00:12:50.160 ostriches. And so what was the premise of the RCMP expropriating your property? Because,
00:12:57.760 you know, I mean, first of all, there's a lawsuit that you guys have launched against RCMP and CFIA.
00:13:04.060 Am I correct in saying that? Yes, that's right. Okay. And that's for illegal takeover of your
00:13:08.880 property? Oh, it's for all sorts of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Illegal takeover. The warrant didn't even
00:13:14.360 have my parents' names on it, which was kind of the craziest part. It was written and said,
00:13:20.260 Universal Ostrich Farm's secondary quarantine property. And it was in Karen and Dave's name.
00:13:25.800 It had nothing to do with my parents. The offenses listed were not anything that would have been any
00:13:31.560 of our responsibilities either and also we were not even in the province at the time of those
00:13:36.440 offenses so this warrant just made no sense to us at all and in my opinion i just feel like they
00:13:42.060 didn't check who owned this property they just assumed it was owned by karen and dave
00:13:46.280 so why do you think they took it aside like do you think they made a mistake i mean seriously
00:13:54.460 anybody can do a quick property check any like anybody you and i can do it on google we can just
00:14:00.400 go and see, all right, who owns this property here? How many properties are there on this
00:14:04.260 particular piece of land? Right. I mean, you would think they would have done that for something,
00:14:09.420 for an operation this big with so many officers and so many cameras. So there must have been a
00:14:17.600 reason that they took your place, especially. And I think I know what it might be, but if you go
00:14:24.980 ahead and say it, I'll probably have to agree with you. Yeah, it was for operational logistics.
00:14:29.800 they didn't want to have to drive past the protesters so the protesters were going to be
00:14:35.220 on that road Langell Road they were set up sort of in front of and and blocking access to the
00:14:43.000 ostriches and they knew that that was going to be a bit of a problem for them so they seized our
00:14:48.060 place as well so that they could cut in from the highway and they could truck in all their hay
00:14:54.680 unveils, all of their material, their equipment, and then they could truck it back out and they
00:15:01.360 could just divert all the way around the protesters. They didn't have to really deal with
00:15:05.860 them. They ended up with a better sort of like stronghold of the property. And they had
00:15:12.360 some privacy initially until we got there. They had some privacy over there and they just,
00:15:19.260 it was a good operational sort of landmark and also if we had been there i think they knew there
00:15:25.440 was a residence there so they didn't want anybody really to have access to the next door neighbor
00:15:30.540 property and they seized the one on the left of the ostriches as well so i think they actually i
00:15:36.180 mean we talked about this on the phone but i want you to be able to tell everybody who's watching
00:15:40.380 right now again guys don't forget to like and share this get this out to as many people as you
00:15:45.180 possibly can it's important for people to hear this stuff and if you don't share it it goes quiet
00:15:50.380 because they are suppressing certain members of social media myself included right lately it's
00:15:56.560 been like woo unless you guys start sharing so please get it out there you were your property
00:16:04.320 and the residents on the property had a pretty good viewpoint of the kill pin right i mean you
00:16:12.140 guys were closer to it than anybody else in the area yeah we could see it from our yard
00:16:19.420 did you know that they were setting that up there i mean like first of all let's go back to
00:16:25.920 you being allowed onto your own property and then off your own property again how many times did
00:16:31.560 you have to go through that uh hoop with different rcmp offices i mean like it's it seems like you
00:16:38.140 from the video I've seen every single time you wanted to leave oh yeah well anytime that we
00:16:45.140 wanted to leave or enter we were not allowed to touch the carabiner that had the police tape
00:16:50.520 across the gate so we would have to ask for them to come and they could unclip that carabiner for
00:16:57.400 us so that we could get through um so yeah we had to ask them every time initially we had to give
00:17:02.240 them id we had to stand there and wait for 40 minutes while they figured out if they were going
00:17:06.480 let us in and then they escorted us to the residence then um i got banned from the property
00:17:14.220 on the 10th we got there on october 7th i got banned on the 10th after wait a minute wait a
00:17:19.260 minute hold on you got you got banned from your own house not just banned threatened with arrest
00:17:25.420 yeah i they threatened to arrest me if i didn't get cfia permission to access the property again
00:17:31.680 which they had already given me permission we stood there we gave id they approved us they
00:17:36.760 escorted us in the following day the cfia finally contacted my mom for the first time ever and
00:17:42.920 approved us all and then uh yeah they they a police liaison sent sent me a text that said
00:17:49.740 and remember if you don't get cfia permission each time you enter your mom's property
00:17:55.180 uh you will be your arrest will be authorized so how how i understand the communications between
00:18:02.820 cfia and anybody on the outside of it was sketchy at best i mean i heard from karen and from katie
00:18:09.260 that you know we were supposed to be in touch with cfia through email it was email only
00:18:13.540 and they never ever ever got back when you sent them a message right oh they would they would get
00:18:20.740 back sometimes but they would dodge your questions or whatever we had only i think we had three total
00:18:28.100 emails ever sent back to us one was because i when i got banned i had to then request permission to
00:18:35.220 enter the property again i had to send an email in front of the rcmp and they took my phone to
00:18:40.340 to check that i had sent it and then they sent me back in an approval the following morning
00:18:47.060 that said okay now uh approved for margaret grieba trevor cluck and ali turnbull but
00:18:54.180 now no dogs you can't have any dogs on your property they had to flex their muscles again
00:19:00.020 somehow so so it was just arbitrary like whatever they decided yeah at any given time like so one
00:19:06.020 permission no dogs this time you can go ahead and have dogs but next time no and you'd never know
00:19:10.420 they were trying to keep you on your toes i suppose they were trying to keep you uncomfortable
00:19:15.060 and make sure that we didn't uh overstep whatever their imaginary boundaries like
00:19:22.420 they had never told us what we could or couldn't do until they would just decide suddenly and
00:19:28.260 change the rules we talked about this last week on the phone and was the rcmp on your property
00:19:40.740 because what i want you guys to understand you guys watching this is that this property
00:19:46.780 you know there's a tree line between the road where the ostriches were
00:19:52.520 were and the property where the residence is and it's very quiet very relaxing very calming place
00:20:01.320 um you can feel like you're not near anything really when you're there sitting on that deck
00:20:08.240 were they on your property using your like were they eating meals were they cooking on your stove
00:20:17.760 do you know um we don't know i i feel like initially they may have been it's a you're
00:20:25.320 right it's a really nice spot it's very very private and at the time they didn't have um
00:20:30.160 all of their access yet so i think probably first couple of days it would have been a nice spot to
00:20:35.840 get away from the anger and the protesters to go have that little secluded spot. But once we were
00:20:44.780 there, they couldn't have that. And they had seized the property on the other side. Initially,
00:20:48.400 when they set up their motor home, it wasn't where we just saw on that map. It was on the other side
00:20:55.000 near the other property that they had seized. And there was no residence there. So it was a pretty
00:21:01.060 good secluded spot over there as well but they were camped out on top of the hottest part of
00:21:09.080 the quarantine zone they were literally over top of the burials so when people started commenting
00:21:14.880 on the fact that they were in their street clothes they were drinking water bottles they were acting
00:21:20.440 like there was no biosecurity issue literally camping on top of the burials they moved so I
00:21:27.640 think it wasn't what they wanted to be where they were in the end um you know within sight lines of
00:21:34.160 us but it's sort of they had to because otherwise it would have been a worse spectacle than it
00:21:39.540 already was were you restricted from things you could and couldn't do on the property oh yeah
00:21:44.620 and those rules changed as well um and i want you guys to understand like imagine you're sitting in
00:21:50.560 your backyard and the rcmp is there saying oh you can't go to your garden i'm sorry you can't you
00:21:56.620 can't go to your well you cannot go to your shed and then the rules change every day so the next
00:22:02.320 day you can get your shovel out of the shed but you can't use it i mean explain that please yeah
00:22:07.200 so they we have uh a patch of garlic we grow garlic um we were not allowed initially we're
00:22:15.000 told we were would be allowed to go harvest the garlic then we were told uh we were not allowed
00:22:20.280 to because we were seen i had a camera out at all times so i would be just filming and they hated
00:22:27.700 that so then we were no longer allowed to um go to the garlic which had another good sight line
00:22:33.000 on everything um we had another garden were they watching you ellie i mean you're in your yard
00:22:40.980 right and and they say you can't go to your garlic it's my house i'm going to the garlic
00:22:46.620 that's why you've got an rcmp officer watching you get up from the deck to go to the garlic garden
00:22:54.260 oh they were parked at the garlic they that the garlic was really it was tactical garlic they
00:22:59.700 were parked they had a tactical vehicle in front of the garlic um they were full-time on the garlic
00:23:04.540 which meant that they had um sight lines from the ground to us at all times and they would also send
00:23:10.340 a drone or two or three drones um and follow us at all times too which it's not a big area and
00:23:16.160 we were literally the only people in that area and so they were just watching us with drones
00:23:20.180 following us constantly watching us from the ground i could hear them cough from where i was
00:23:25.560 day or night too they were following you with these drones day and night they were following
00:23:30.920 us with drones they were they were there constantly um they had a generator running
00:23:35.940 for their tactical truck just on the other side of the tree line from us if you go to that map
00:23:39.760 again you can literally see them parked there um just through the trees from us it's a it's actually
00:23:44.960 really short. Daisy's watching the tactical garlic he puts down on his YouTube. I want to play this
00:23:51.620 video. So before we begin, can you please set the stage for us? This is the nighttime one
00:23:59.220 where you're talking to that obstinate RCMP officer. I know you're there. I know Daisy's
00:24:05.260 there. It's your mom and stepdad, right? Also? Yeah. So this is in November at this point. So
00:24:13.220 we had already had weeks and weeks of RCMP control of the property. And every once in a while,
00:24:20.360 basically there was a new shift every six days. And each time the new shift would never be kind
00:24:26.460 of warned about us at all. So we would then have to deescalate the tension between RCMP and us
00:24:33.600 each time. Just for going in the property, they would always say, well, it's very weird that you
00:24:38.240 would even be allowed in here because it's a search warrant. And we would say, yes, it's weird
00:24:42.380 for us too we don't understand so a search warrant that lasted how many days 48 52 yeah like it's a
00:24:50.660 search warrant for 52 days first of all that's not a search warrant and they didn't search
00:24:55.040 no that's that's a different kind of word that's a seizure not search but seizure so i'm going to
00:25:02.100 put this video on you guys you guys are going to find this really alarming like what what is the
00:25:06.880 medical condition that margaret has um she has epilepsy so she has seizures and it can be
00:25:11.300 triggered by light okay so you guys watch this and ally if you need to stop and tell us exactly
00:25:18.920 what's going on as we continue through this video please just let me know just go ahead and say oh
00:25:23.860 can you stop so you can explain it okay yeah all right here we go you guys you're just trying to
00:25:28.660 Let your gate out for safety.
00:25:34.180 Let's just go into our gate.
00:25:40.880 Okay.
00:25:45.680 Had you seen this officer before?
00:25:49.220 He arrived the night before, and we had a little bit of tension with him already.
00:25:53.560 um just because i don't know this guy if you look at videos of of it of him during the call night
00:26:01.940 he was smiling in in that lineup of rcmp he was i think he was one of the more rude and aggressive
00:26:09.680 police that they sent to us and it was of course right before the call it just seemed like they
00:26:14.460 were sending more and more aggressive uh shifts towards us as things were you know it's interesting
00:26:21.100 that you say that because it was a lot the same at uh freedom convoy from what i hear from people
00:26:26.840 who were there right like what kind of officers would you send to something like that you would
00:26:32.340 want to send the most aggressive people because you know that they're going to get the job done
00:26:37.140 even if it's gleefully yeah we had a lot of good rapport with a lot of the rcmp over the weeks we
00:26:43.300 had you know gotten to know quite a few of them because we had to talk to them 10 times a day so
00:26:48.340 we had good relationship with a few of them and then as soon as we would build that rapport they
00:26:53.260 would not be approved to return for another shift yeah i also know that i think it was maybe the
00:27:00.280 final day or the final night where there was video of the officers who were forming that line in front
00:27:07.080 of the pen that some of them maybe some of the younger ones some of the female rcmp officers as
00:27:14.540 well were very very emotional like they almost looked like they were coming to tears knowing
00:27:22.380 what was coming next did you see that yourself i i didn't i there was one officer that i did have
00:27:30.120 a bit of a more of a rapport with that they sent back i think probably to calm us and he was a
00:27:37.140 little bit emotional um but if if they were emotional i mean i didn't see it they were still
00:27:43.540 standing in a human shield for the cfia so okay most of them were were super rude or
00:27:51.460 or just totally trying to ignore us interesting how they would deploy that i guess maybe the ones
00:27:56.420 further back would have been the ones that were more aggressive which is where your residence is
00:28:02.260 like as we go further back towards the kill pen yeah okay let's continue on with this
00:28:07.140 Our Milwaukee light is brighter than that, right?
00:28:13.940 The Milwaukee light that's usually there is brighter than what's on my police car.
00:28:18.060 Your alley light.
00:28:21.660 No, we're not moving the light.
00:28:25.160 We're not going to move the light.
00:28:26.180 No.
00:28:27.340 A further response to paragraph 25C when the plaintiff Klug approached RCMP.
00:28:32.940 I'm sorry, say again?
00:28:34.000 Trevor Klug, yeah, that's my last stepdad's last name.
00:28:36.100 That's your stepdad, okay.
00:28:37.140 approached rcmp members and informed them the plaintiff uh your mom had a medical condition
00:28:42.620 triggered by flashing or bright light rcmp members worked with the plaintiffs
00:28:46.120 to turn off the lights when she was passing through the area so that's the response from
00:28:52.300 cfia that's what they say yeah yeah and this does it look like it clearly not you know what i want
00:28:59.700 to go through this as well once the video is over here this is six minutes long you guys we're going
00:29:04.260 to be stopping and starting but you know ali was also telling me on the phone last week that
00:29:08.620 there was so many lies in the response from cfia uh when it comes to the lawsuit and the legal
00:29:14.460 papers and the back and forth and all of that i want to get to to some of that as well um but
00:29:19.500 first let's get through this here you don't sleep here it's you're literally chopping by
00:29:24.540 he doesn't sleep here dude he lives there over there there's a light shining into your window
00:29:31.380 say again that on the right there that's from the residence like he said it doesn't shine into your
00:29:44.820 light does it or into your window does it that's when we are leaving the residence on the right
00:29:49.920 there that little is that a split screen or is that actually going on right behind him no it's
00:29:54.340 a split screen that's just showing what it looks like okay for us just seeing the lights on your
00:29:58.840 truck they're way better than my light okay i can hear daisy dude like try to be a human being
00:30:12.640 right like i can understand how upset okay so what would you like me to do
00:30:20.280 how about be a human that's not gonna happen then it should be pointed not directly where
00:30:25.740 I'm telling you the light cannot come down.
00:30:29.820 Okay, I understand your guys' concerns.
00:30:33.440 Well, unfortunately, I cannot do anything with the light.
00:30:36.740 Okay.
00:30:38.320 Well, I don't know if there's ways that she can either close her eyes or wear sunglasses.
00:30:45.060 Are you?
00:30:45.600 Close her eyes or wear sunglasses.
00:30:50.020 Just close them up.
00:30:51.560 Do you need to drive?
00:30:54.420 Well, she can't now.
00:30:55.740 because she has to close her eyes or wear sunglasses at night.
00:30:59.940 Unbelievable.
00:31:01.140 Does this guy actually, like, you're standing right there.
00:31:04.440 I see you standing right there.
00:31:05.540 Like, you must be going like, dude, you're not even really human, are you?
00:31:10.240 I was really stunned.
00:31:12.240 I mean, I couldn't believe that he was saying the things he was.
00:31:14.340 They were so rude and disrespectful, and he was literally on our property.
00:31:19.520 I kind of knew that we were going to have this interaction because we they had set up the light so that it beamed down towards Karen's house.
00:31:29.820 So even just walking from the driveway or driving from the driveway to our place, like it was dangerous for even pedestrians.
00:31:38.900 So we were we knew we were going to talk to him about it.
00:31:43.280 But this was really shocking, his response.
00:31:46.700 Is this the only guy that you had a conversation with about the lights?
00:31:51.060 The previous RCMP never shined the lights that way down the road directly.
00:31:56.700 They would angle them if they used them.
00:31:59.320 Sometimes they wouldn't even have the lights on.
00:32:01.400 The lights kind of popped up as a, I called it my punishment light, and they call it an alley light, which is kind of rude, but it's a different alley.
00:32:12.160 and then uh they they would shine it angled so that it it would just illuminate me if i left
00:32:19.600 the property in the dark at all uh they wanted to see me because i guess i startled them a couple
00:32:25.320 times just walking accidentally um so this was a new direction though to point it directly down
00:32:32.480 the driveway and pointed where people would be driving it was dangerous at that point it was a
00:32:39.180 it was a shift. It was a change. Wow. All right, let's continue.
00:32:43.320 I'm trying, I'm trying to give you guys ways.
00:32:49.600 I understand that. And we're trying to keep the peace.
00:32:53.740 And at the same time,
00:32:54.520 we're also doing security measures because certain individuals are causing a
00:32:58.460 lot of issues for us.
00:33:00.080 And so we're trying to keep the peace during this period of time,
00:33:03.800 during this period of time. And so we need the light so we can see whose
00:33:08.420 individual okay so i see your eyes kind of going back and forth here like obviously this guy's
00:33:13.140 lying you're asking him who's causing the problems and i do know that there were maybe a couple of
00:33:22.020 problems that happened during the entire occupation and i believe we're correct to call it an
00:33:26.120 occupation um i know that jim kerr jumped a fence and i know that one time and he got arrested for
00:33:34.560 that he was taken off the property well he didn't jump a fence he kind of i think he went under or
00:33:39.860 he went uh he didn't fully jump a fence and he was still kind of within a barrier but yeah he
00:33:44.980 crossed the line he crossed the line he got arrested he was not allowed back on the property
00:33:48.880 right yeah yeah so so no more jim kerr so you don't have to worry about that this guy yeah he's
00:33:53.500 gone yeah and the other one the only one that i could think of would have been the incident with
00:34:00.600 the neighbor on the other side yeah which happened uh happened 17 minutes after the police arrived
00:34:07.480 like yeah so so that was already long in the past yes and i mean i i don't know i know godry
00:34:17.500 had his megaphone out and he was doing a lot of yelling back and forth with the cops every now
00:34:22.580 and again but yeah the cops would tell us that they they didn't get into that job to have everybody
00:34:28.620 love them you know they know how to deal with people who are emotional and they deal with
00:34:32.860 people who are you know having the worst day of their lives all the time so if they can't handle
00:34:37.040 people being emotional and just that's what they're supposed to do that's their jobs yeah
00:34:41.720 you have to wonder too like this guy here who's saying well you know we can't do anything about
00:34:45.680 the light even though the other rcmp officers clearly could yeah um this guy here you got to
00:34:51.040 wonder like does he understand does he have empathy meaning that if he owns property wherever
00:34:56.020 he comes from how would he like it if there were a bunch of armed strangers and we talk about a
00:35:01.680 bunch like you'd mentioned the number 36 to me last week I've heard other estimates that were
00:35:07.260 considerably higher than that especially as we got towards the end of it I mean yeah on the call
00:35:12.480 night I'd say there was probably a hundred yeah like imagine what that must be like to have all
00:35:19.380 of these essentially an army a regiment yeah keeping an eye on you because you're the bad one
00:35:27.120 your property is occupied by us because you've got infected ostriches here like give me a break
00:35:34.180 right i mean i was like the biggest problem for them just because sometimes i would walk around
00:35:40.440 and and i didn't even walk around the property i'd walk you know i'd exit the gate but if i'm
00:35:46.320 on foot. I didn't have to wait for them to open the tape. I could just duck under and I would
00:35:50.920 startle them, I guess if. Startle them? Yeah. Here's what I want. I want to ask you, Allie,
00:35:57.160 how tall are you? I'm five, six. You're five, six. You're a woman who's five, six. Yeah. And
00:36:03.980 you know, these guys are trained in, in tactical maneuvers. They're armed. I don't think that
00:36:10.120 you're a problem for them. No, I'm pretty friendly. I'm always polite. I'm, I would
00:36:14.720 introduce myself to them first at the beginning of their shifts on the shift change just so that
00:36:19.680 we wouldn't have issues i tell them sometimes i like to walk around like um i i know i'm not
00:36:25.260 allowed to walk around within our property so i sometimes i'll walk out of the property so like
00:36:30.080 what would a startling incident look like would they go oh my god it's a five foot six woman
00:36:34.740 yeah well because of the way they're parked um at our property the way that they were angled
00:36:40.620 sometimes I would come out I think through their peripheral view so there was this cat that would
00:36:46.660 run around um the property sometimes and he's this white cat and he would sometimes just come
00:36:52.900 up in the peripheral view and I I joked that I was probably kind of like that because it would
00:36:56.600 just startle you in the dark and I'm pretty sure that that's what it was like for them I would even
00:37:00.880 have a flashlight pointed at myself so that I was fully illuminated I wasn't going to startle them
00:37:05.700 i'm scared they all have guns and you know what they're out in the country yeah what do they think
00:37:11.580 you're going to hear owls hooting every now and again you're going to hear coyotes sometimes and
00:37:17.520 they were very startled by that they did not understand the coyote howling at all wow really
00:37:23.840 freaked out that night all right let's get let's get through this here as painful as it is
00:37:28.460 are coming up to our up to our so the light the lights are coming on that's the end of the
00:37:33.740 discussion feel free to pull into your property okay do you want to go in or do you want me to
00:37:41.260 close the gate or to what go in or close the gate okay well you don't have to go in that's
00:37:48.460 your choice okay then you can back up and you can leave oh well again i'm sorry this is on
00:37:55.900 circumstances we're at at this point so you can like you think you're probably going to head to
00:38:02.160 bed for the night it's up to you what do you know like are you the same guy i want to stop this in
00:38:08.140 further response to paragraph 23 and in response to paragraph 30c of the claim at all material
00:38:13.520 time cfia and rcmp officers interacted respectfully with the plaintiffs told her she could sleep in
00:38:20.640 car outside no are you serious like you're going to sit on our property you're going to mess up our
00:38:28.560 property and then you're going to tell us go in there and sleep and talk with your lights
00:38:33.360 turn here close your eyes no the light's not coming off put sunglasses on at night
00:38:38.320 you guys can argue with me all you want the bottom line the light is staying on
00:38:42.160 well does it have to be right there where where would you like us to park our police cars
00:38:48.240 you got an rcmp car exiting the driveway like that's just their light for us when we're
00:38:57.900 right behind him as we walk out there's be another one pointed up at us like there's
00:39:02.920 where would you like as he's asking to park our police cars dude you've got how many acres
00:39:07.160 yeah like anywhere else or even still there but just point your light differently like what
00:39:13.720 yeah i
00:39:15.640 i have to be able to see i have to be able to see onto the road in the month i've been here

00:40:22.820 plate on your truck it's an alberta truck oh are you okay fair enough i didn't see the rear plate
00:40:28.000 okay that's not what you're saying you piece of shit i'm not threatening anything no yeah you
00:40:35.220 You're addressing down anything you perceive as a crime right now to protect the CFIOs.
00:40:43.220 We're here to keep the peace. We're protecting both sides of the parties.
00:40:49.220 No, you're not.
00:40:50.220 Keep the peace, right? All you're doing is disturbing the peace.
00:40:53.220 We are impartial.
00:40:54.220 No, you're not impartial.
00:40:58.220 Okay.
00:40:59.220 And again, I apologize. I understand.
00:41:01.220 You're condescending bullshit doesn't mean it's a health risk. It's a health risk. It's not an inconvenience.
00:41:08.220 You might not agree with it, but unfortunately that's the circumstances that we're at.
00:41:12.220 It's a health risk. It's not an inconvenience.
00:41:15.220 Now you're being apologetic and diminutive when you're just talking shit.
00:41:20.220 At the end of the day, I understand this is an inconvenience to you guys. It's an inconvenience for everybody. I understand that.
00:41:26.220 It's a health hazard.
00:41:28.220 understand that and unfortunately there's nothing there's no perfect scenario there this is not
00:41:34.300 okay no it's not universal ostrich farm property this warrant is not in their names and you're
00:41:41.720 terrorizing them and again i apologize to your wife it's like i said it's not a perfect scenario
00:41:49.780 But I do need security.
00:41:51.780 Unfortunately, when it comes to the scenario, the majority of people here are peaceful protesters
00:41:59.780 and I absolutely love it, absolutely love it.
00:42:02.780 People can come out here and voice their opinions in a safe and productive manner,
00:42:06.780 but unfortunately, there are some individuals here who have other motives in mind.
00:42:10.780 Who? Who has other motives in mind?
00:42:13.780 Please.
00:42:14.780 You never allowed anybody but for us.
00:42:16.780 there's people here who take a little mole hill and try and build it into a mountain excuse me
00:42:26.900 but you've just seized private property that is not a little mole hill it's kind of a mountain to
00:42:36.760 me huge yeah yeah so do you know this guy's name i don't know his name actually that one
00:42:44.820 i mean there's there's all sorts we got i think it's we have his badge number
00:42:49.680 this lawsuit ali is it name certain members of the rcmp or is it against the organization as a
00:43:00.020 whole and the same with the cfia um it doesn't name certain members it's just uh the organizations
00:43:05.680 as a whole and then we're i've put in a complaint against one rcmp and kind of they're just
00:43:11.600 going to continue on until we're was it against that rcmp or another one a different one yeah
00:43:18.820 can you explain what happened in that incident oh well there's an rcmp um sort of the i would
00:43:26.080 say he's the would have been my family's liaison rcmp he's he's from the cusp and wait a minute
00:43:32.840 wait a minute hold on he's he's a liaison officer i don't think he's a liaison he's actually a
00:43:38.080 detachment commander um oh i know who you mean okay yeah he was the one that that interacted
00:43:44.700 the most with my family and so i had met with him on september 9th um which is well before they had
00:43:52.000 seized anything and i had given him a lot of documents on people being ominous and threatening
00:43:58.380 and and violent and harassing rcmp officers and not people who were at the farm right oh no people
00:44:04.940 on people just people uh in the town or online right right and so I had given him a ton of
00:44:12.500 proof of that and he said that he would file a report for me that he would um request preservation
00:44:22.080 of it all and he would interview some people and then he just completely ghosted me and like never
00:44:29.480 spoke to me again he looked at my LinkedIn right before he seized my parents property but he
00:44:34.900 still never responded to anything ever again about our fears and concerns about that you know it's
00:44:42.260 it's interesting because i know that those fears and concerns were going on for as long as the
00:44:50.420 situation was being publicized so we can go back a year and a half right well i mean if we go back
00:44:58.820 to even february of last year when or january when this first became a thing when the cfia said
00:45:05.640 at the beginning all right sorry man but you know what we're gonna have to call your birds
00:45:08.980 uh even after all the back and forth and then you know katie started becoming more and more public
00:45:13.960 about it and uh the thing became blown up all over the world not just canada but you know at some
00:45:21.460 point in the very early goings there were some local social media groups that formed from the
00:45:28.240 edgewood area who were talking about you know coming in there in the middle of the night and
00:45:33.100 just shooting them themselves oh yeah they made edgewood sniper club stickers and t-shirts and
00:45:39.100 birds did did get shot a bird got shot in march and in may as well they were shot dead in the
00:45:46.040 night so it's pretty scary what was what was the the locals reaction now i was there for
00:45:52.220 a couple of weeks maybe three weeks i think all together and i did see some of it but i don't
00:45:57.080 think i was there long enough to really absorb all of it i do know i had one episode where i was at
00:46:04.580 the town store there and there was some drunken asshole with a boat who was talking about catching
00:46:10.940 he said he caught the avian flu from the ostriches right and i went like did you go to the ostrich
00:46:17.680 farm because i'm standing right there and he's yelling all this stuff to people who were on the
00:46:22.300 street and i said did you go to the ostrich farm he goes no no man like it's in the air
00:46:27.040 i said oh yeah there's they say all sorts of stuff i think there was a the the group facebook
00:46:33.600 group that originally started started june 4th um and it was called edgewood uncensored and they
00:46:40.880 they i mean if anybody ever spoke positively towards the ostrich farm they would get removed
00:46:48.240 or or people would just dogpile on them and harass them and and I mean they would say if
00:46:55.200 somebody spoke up and said do you not have anything nice to say they would then throw the
00:46:59.720 worst thing that they know about that person any gossip at all they would throw it out publicly
00:47:05.180 to shame them so that they would never do it again and then it got to the point where some
00:47:10.060 locals would would approach us and say just want you to know that we support you but we can't
00:47:15.700 publicly because the people that are involved in those groups they will just pile on them
00:47:22.980 so hard and it will just become this public um assault basically this this is the problem with
00:47:28.980 people is they just won't stand up for what they know to be right you know this is what we've been
00:47:34.100 going through for years yeah but still i mean like you you could stand up and say exactly what did
00:47:39.860 they do to you and you know i remember sitting down with your aunt one day we're having coffee
00:47:45.220 we're in the kitchen of the house there and she said uh she knew some of the people who were in
00:47:51.480 this group she was upset and she was saying this guy here i remember giving him a job when he was
00:47:58.760 17 years old and helping him through a very very difficult situation she didn't go into it
00:48:04.400 well she did but i'm not going to go into into it here anyway i mean you know your aunt is pretty
00:48:10.680 famous around that area for helping people you know feeding people i know yeah and and for the
00:48:18.340 town and the whole region to turn on her like this to me was reprehensible but it was it was
00:48:26.260 planned that way they wanted that i i think it was organized honestly i it the way it's it popped
00:48:32.120 up it wasn't really natural it's not how people naturally gather which you know we have a
00:48:37.160 grassroots cause we're familiar with how people sort of gather and support a cause this was not
00:48:42.640 natural it it are you talking about the social media groups are you talking about just the way
00:48:47.600 the the town the social media groups it was um i mean they they first started this group
00:48:54.920 on June 4th and they were immediately um sort of hyping up their their authority which they said
00:49:02.760 was a forensic investigator and he had all this information and dirt on the farm and then he just
00:49:09.300 spread tons of disinformation there was YouTube videos and and podcasts that he went on where he
00:49:15.440 just slandered and and said so much disinformation about my family and these locals watched it and
00:49:23.380 they have said uh on the same podcast they've said oh that first youtube video was really
00:49:28.920 informative for me and he just he grabbed onto them they they took all the people who are the
00:49:36.480 town negative gossip types and they accumulated all of their gossip and then they spread it out
00:49:45.880 and it was really organized and it was just relentless every day many times a day they
00:49:53.100 would just be spreading disinformation to the locals and i think they just radicalized the
00:49:58.360 town they they wanted to eliminate public support and that's they they used a playbook for it it's
00:50:05.540 literally like a propaganda it's called astroturf campaign i've learned absolutely totally is it's
00:50:11.420 you know and your family was under threat from so many different entities all at one time yeah
00:50:19.120 And then they riled up the people in the town who are that way, that would jump to conclusions and could potentially become a violent problem for us.
00:50:31.320 So it became really, really scary very fast.
00:50:33.580 So back at the beginning of the show tonight, you were saying you were going through some hard times.
00:50:37.560 You're not exactly back to where you would like to be emotionally and whatnot.
00:50:43.300 Well, especially since it's still happening, these groups.
00:50:46.660 yeah still happen like a man was charged with criminal harassment just like a week and a half
00:50:52.560 ago if what uh yeah like i don't know this story what tell us there's a a man that that frequents
00:51:01.280 the groups he's constantly in these groups um and they kind of encourage and and rile him up
00:51:06.700 and he's oh this is the the loop-de-loop guy he's not well and he's got some addiction issues
00:51:14.440 i i think and um he's yeah so he recently posted a lot of threats where he said
00:51:22.260 we should get some uh save on dumpsters for the to put the grifters bodies in and he was just
00:51:30.100 saying it probably about 10 times he would say it in different groups and um and they are laughing
00:51:36.660 at his posts they're kind of encouraging and hyping it up and so he got picked up and arrested
00:51:43.880 it good is he still in custody is what is he charged he's uh released on conditions but now
00:51:50.080 he's breached his conditions so he'll be back um emotionally speaking uh i i'm not sure how often
00:51:58.140 you talk to karen katie uh but if you do and i know you're a close family okay every day how is
00:52:07.980 everybody doing i i we're all i think everybody that was there like everybody that was there for
00:52:15.000 that is is not the same and i'm probably i don't know if they they will be ever again but i know
00:52:21.660 for karen and katie and and me and my mom especially um it actually seems to get harder
00:52:27.740 the longer it goes without any accountability and any anybody taking responsibility for what was
00:52:34.520 done the longer that that goes um the harder it gets because it's just really shocking to have
00:52:41.300 this happen and to know that so many things were done so wrong and and just nothing happens i guess
00:52:49.000 to them they don't have to even apologize they don't even have to say that they did anything
00:52:54.720 wrong and in fact they can continue on egging egging on these groups and and just destroy
00:53:02.120 public support as best they can continuously tell us the the response because you you were suing
00:53:09.420 cfia rcmp and they've had to respond to you through this lawsuit everything they said is a
00:53:17.140 lie right oh well lots of it is is a lie and a lot of it is just i i it just doesn't even make
00:53:25.560 sense like they said that there's no proof that we have had any anxiety or distress over what
00:53:31.440 happened and no proof that this has actually affected us in any way I think that's typical
00:53:37.920 my lawyer warned me that they obviously weren't going to send a defense that said okay we did it
00:53:42.820 like they will that's not how that works either but I mean it was offensive the way that they
00:53:47.860 denied everything so what's next in the process I mean how long is this going to go on do you think
00:53:54.340 i don't know i'm i'm hoping that we can move through this process um when did you first file
00:54:02.480 this was it like recently filed february 10th and then they responded may 1st and then we've
00:54:08.780 just filed a reply um at the end of may to their response where we just say like that's not true
00:54:15.060 and that's not true and that's not true and now we go into disclosure so we so you're going to
00:54:21.060 get all of the stuff well hopefully you'll get all of the stuff i mean you're going up against
00:54:25.660 a very powerful well-funded government agency right and yeah it's probably daunting you know
00:54:32.580 go ahead the difference is like for them this is their job for us this is our life
00:54:38.180 so i have energy for this at this point like we want justice
00:54:43.320 what was your life like before all of this oh not you even remember
00:54:50.660 I don't I I don't I'm having a hard time with that um I don't know who I am now that this
00:54:58.860 happened to me my life before was um nothing to do with this I didn't follow political anything
00:55:07.060 I was just trying to get through life and through my my day you know I'm um I'm a mother and I um
00:55:15.420 you know I just tried to get through life normally and I didn't really bother myself
00:55:24.680 with the rest of it I didn't follow anything I was naive I didn't know the government could do
00:55:30.820 this kind of harm to people and I didn't know that the media could even lie I thought there
00:55:35.380 were rules against that so I was just living ignorant bliss and then I watched the media
00:55:41.200 start to lie about my life right in front of me and it was truly the most shocking part of it was
00:55:48.340 when they started to actually deceive the public I was really changed by that that CBC special they
00:55:57.060 did yeah yeah I mean that's that's one of them one of the shocking things that's one of the
00:56:05.840 the ones that got a lot of play in these last couple of months because it was so
00:56:09.820 absolutely garbage yeah yeah that was just crazy the fact that they didn't even ask the cfia
00:56:17.040 a thing about the violence or that whether they had tested any of them or they didn't ask any of
00:56:24.540 the actual questions that canadians wanted asked that was just a hit job it was ridiculous
00:56:30.700 have you been back recently to the farm yeah what was it like going back there
00:56:38.800 for the first time like first time you went back I know I know that you're in Alberta and it's it's
00:56:43.520 a bit of a drive to get back to the farm and I've been back after I'm sorry to interrupt you again
00:56:48.560 but I wanted to make a I want to get your first experience back at the farm after everything
00:56:56.740 yeah um I think that the most recent time that I was back was was maybe the toughest one the first
00:57:04.260 time that I got back it was snowing there was a massive storm so everything was covered in snow
00:57:10.020 you couldn't really go around and see everything um it was when the fifth estate came actually to
00:57:16.780 to interview there was a few different things going on at that time so it just it it was weird
00:57:23.820 to have it be so quiet and not hear the booming is is for me the hardest part because like we are
00:57:33.160 used to having ostriches through our yard we can see them and we hear them all the time and now
00:57:38.160 it's unbelievably quiet but the more recent time that I went it's springtime it's the time where
00:57:49.640 it would it's normal to walk around and I just kept finding myself as I was walking I would find
00:57:55.000 myself at that kill pen I didn't plan on ever going there but I kept finding myself there and
00:58:02.140 that I went in and it was really really tough we went in with metal detectors and we found
00:58:12.680 a lot of bullet casings um it was I mean it's just truly shocking and disturbing that they
00:58:23.460 did that and in that tiny little corral they shot them all running for their lives and they did it
00:58:32.420 from these hay bales that then they cut the twine and they tipped the hay bales over so that it would
00:58:38.320 be really hard for people to clean up and now it's a fire hazard and they have found three live
00:58:44.320 rounds in those hay bales so it's yeah just it's a real fire hazard it's really hard to clean up
00:58:52.760 and we found the smallest rounds I've ever seen that were used. There's some renderings left
00:58:59.040 behind too weren't there after the initial killing culling whatever I mean this was supposed to be
00:59:07.440 a hazardous area and they they left blood they they left a lot of possible infectious things
00:59:17.620 behind well and they picked up a lot of that hay and they took it over to my parents property and
00:59:23.260 they spread it into their roadways so that they could get traction in their vehicles because
00:59:27.920 they were all stuck so they they contaminated my parents property as well with all of that
00:59:33.980 i mean it's a true contamination because they spread bloody hay on the property um i mean it's
00:59:41.000 just gross there was no biosecurity followed there really wasn't it's so offensive that they did this
00:59:48.300 and they would say that it's for biosecurity when they disrespected biosecurity at every turn and
00:59:54.000 then they would just put out statements to all of canada and say no we're doing perfect biosecurity
00:59:58.820 don't worry we're doing great biosecurity everyone it's going great like it was a lie they lied to
01:00:03.760 canadians it's no surprise that they lied i mean they're a government agency we know what these
01:00:10.440 people do um it's funny the way you were describing yourself the alley before and now the alley after
01:00:19.900 um learned a lot i'll bet it's a whole different world isn't it yeah it really is and just having
01:00:29.800 talked to so many people too like supporters and people who've reached out and and the people who
01:00:34.520 really get it are the people who have been harmed by the government and and that's really a tough
01:00:40.840 thing to um to take in when you didn't realize it is what about your friends before and and after
01:00:48.280 now have you you know because this is not a question i've had the opportunity to ask anybody
01:00:53.160 really for quite some time um it usually was asked a lot during freedom convoy and even before that
01:01:00.940 when the when the shots first came out or even when you know covid came out you know this show's
01:01:05.680 been on for six years and i've had the opportunity to to ask people what was your moment where you
01:01:11.800 realized how did your life change and you are a more recent addition to our freedom family now
01:01:21.700 welcome it's nice to have you um and i'm sorry you had to be uh dragged in in such a horrible way
01:01:30.560 but uh you're here and you've got a family i hope you understand that that that there's people all
01:01:37.660 across this country who are supporting uh and caring about you guys you and the entire family
01:01:44.460 thank you um have you lost friends have people kind of turned away from you since all of this
01:01:53.400 um i don't know if i'm not sure who turned away honestly i'm i'm different and now i've had a
01:02:05.400 really hard time talking to anyone, really. I've become really isolated. And part of it is because
01:02:16.060 I don't know how to talk to people. And now it feels like every conversation I'm going to have
01:02:23.180 with anyone from my life before will be like a reunion, which feels like a lot of pressure,
01:02:28.560 because I don't know how to talk to people about what happened because it's so crazy.
01:02:35.880 You know what? I'm going to tell you right now that you can't do that. There's no way that you
01:02:42.740 can. So let me, let me please say to you that it's okay that you don't, you know, and if you
01:02:49.920 want to go back to the people from before, that's all right too. I mean, like, I think everybody
01:02:55.060 does that we go back to that but it's different it's different now you know when you go like for
01:03:01.860 example you know i'll go out and see buddies of mine that i've known since high school and we'll
01:03:06.640 play around a golf or something whatever we don't ever talk about this stuff because if we talk
01:03:12.720 about this stuff they're they're going to start calling names and that's where the division comes
01:03:18.360 but it is a different dynamic and that's something that you can't expect when you see people from
01:03:25.800 back in the day you know in your case it's not even that long ago right
01:03:29.500 it's a completely different thing they are people who are still sleeping and you'll notice that
01:03:37.300 you'll definitely notice that by the the way they act the things they say they think everything is
01:03:42.220 perfectly fine it's not that's the tough one for me it's just because i don't feel like everything
01:03:48.640 is fine at all and and a lot you know a lot of people are really supportive of our family and
01:03:55.480 and and my friends they are too i think where they were they would you know send support it
01:04:02.540 i think for me it was really hard that um people were living their normal life while we were
01:04:08.580 fighting for our lives while they were shooting a thousand bullets um it just feels like such a
01:04:14.840 disconnect now and and i've had a couple people just say that i'm really different now when i
01:04:21.820 see them and and i think that's really giving me a lot of anxiety about talking to people is because
01:04:26.500 i think they'll be able to measure before and after ally better than me so what i mean like
01:04:34.420 if they say you're different now, I mean, you've grown, your eyes have opened, you can see what's
01:04:39.740 going on now. And that gives you everything you need to be able to fight back. Those, those other
01:04:46.060 people, they're still sleepwalking through. And, you know, so I don't like saying this, but I also
01:04:55.320 do, again, here you are, you're awake now, right? And, and you see it. And as things go on, Allie,
01:05:04.520 you're going to see more and more and more. I know that's my experience. And so, you know,
01:05:11.220 with the people that we do have, and that number is growing as well, we're going to be able to
01:05:15.460 continue fighting back, um, as opposed to getting steamrolled. And you could see that too, with the
01:05:22.440 ostrich farm you know as time went on more and more people started to take notice of it
01:05:27.340 and wanted to know at the very least wanted to know exactly what was going on and they weren't
01:05:32.800 satisfied with the left-wing corporate media story so they started listening yeah so they
01:05:38.740 started listening to people like me and others who were who were telling more of the truth
01:05:43.060 all sides it's clearly i mean the stuff that they put out on it it's just it's not they had a hard
01:05:50.840 job to convince canadians to allow healthy animals be gunned down like people are it's not an easy
01:05:58.980 sell and so i think you know what though they they didn't that's the problem because people
01:06:04.260 have become so conditioned to believing whatever they say not everybody like i say you know like
01:06:10.160 that that number is getting smaller ours is getting larger i have another question for you
01:06:14.140 and that is that night because we've been kind of skirting around it a little bit the night that
01:06:18.700 had happened were you on the property were you on your property were you able to see through the
01:06:23.760 trees yeah yeah well they they beamed us with lights so um we saw them setting up their lights
01:06:32.560 on top of the kill pen that morning to shine out at us we were on the property when it when it
01:06:39.620 happened and well and it must have been loud too right is it very loud it was sudden and i actually
01:06:47.160 i didn't realize what it was until the screaming um and i heard um one of our
01:06:56.160 close friends and supporters um she was screaming she has a gun trauma we never thought it would be
01:07:02.900 guns we never thought they would be just start shooting them that was really shocking um and
01:07:07.620 and so she was screaming and then um katie came out and and i knew they were shooting at that
01:07:14.220 point I was just trying to beg her to go inside the house and to be with Karen and when she
01:07:20.480 realized that it was gunfire I mean it just all was so bad and my stepdad was was in our property
01:07:31.380 and and and I we couldn't like contact each other our phones kept going down we had really bad
01:07:38.920 service at the time and um i think they probably put up yeah lockers right oh yeah just at the best
01:07:47.280 best times that they could for for us um so yeah the the gunfire was happening um it was it was
01:07:55.200 really really disturbing and and fast and then um within the property um i had a drone illuminate me
01:08:04.740 from the sky which I didn't even know they could do that and it turned on on me and my stepdad
01:08:10.940 and I just started freaking out like I thought that it could shoot me and there was gunfire
01:08:17.660 happening and I already have PTSD about gun violence and a gun violence incident from before
01:08:23.740 so I was just I thought I was about to die this drone illuminated me and as I was screaming for
01:08:31.080 to stop it just shone brighter it turned up brighter and my stepdad called the liaison on
01:08:38.620 the phone and and left him a voicemail which they could hear him doing because they could
01:08:42.800 they were right on the other side of the trees from us and as soon as he hung up that voicemail
01:08:48.360 because that liaison had already said that they would get the drones to back off us as soon as he
01:08:53.700 got off the phone um it powered off and it was the most shocking thing for me um to to be
01:09:04.920 illuminated from the sky I was frozen I couldn't I couldn't figure out what to do it's all on video
01:09:12.900 it was just like the most jarring thing at at the most disturbing time um and it just felt
01:09:21.140 like harassment and like they were probably just laughing at us you grew up with these ostriches
01:09:27.100 i'm sure yeah yeah like katie too right like i remember having this conversation with katie
01:09:31.580 and i you know i said you were a little kid when this ostrich was born this ostrich whichever
01:09:39.060 ostrich it was you know like i mean you grew up with this with this ostrich this one particular
01:09:44.740 never mind all of the other ones this one here yeah so you get to know their behaviors pretty
01:09:50.360 well and then individually too you can tell them apart i i always thought that was interesting you
01:09:56.520 know when i first arrived at the farm and you know i i got to see them up as close as i could because
01:10:02.080 they had that stupid yellow tape there in front of the fence it's just the stupidest thing um but
01:10:09.500 you get as close as you can and you look at them and they look back at you right you go wow man
01:10:13.780 like these are the coolest of creatures and you could just sit there with them for hours and just
01:10:20.260 you know they're so magnetic they are and you
01:10:24.620 you you you were right there i mean do ostriches scream did you did you hear them that night like
01:10:34.660 when they were people have said that they were screaming and i'm i'm really sorry to say this i
01:10:40.000 think it might have been me because i i've seen the live stream um that was done um by this lady
01:10:46.580 named erica um she she recorded from start to finish and they people were counting the bullets
01:10:53.580 um being fired and she was out on the highway like locked out and she just recorded the whole night
01:10:59.740 and and there was a time where i don't even i don't remember what led up to it for me screaming
01:11:04.940 but i just i couldn't stop screaming and people people thought that they were screaming i'm thinking
01:11:12.880 when it might have been me and I'm just was the closest one to them but I just lost my mind in
01:11:17.860 there I don't know it was everything was just happening and I thought I was going to die and
01:11:22.060 we were fighting for their lives I don't know why but up until probably about halfway through the
01:11:27.000 shooting I really truly thought we could stop them still like I thought that there was some way
01:11:31.320 that we could get them to we pull off another miracle or something I just fought as if we
01:11:38.100 could save them i want people to understand as well this was not the rcmp that killed
01:11:42.340 the ostriches this was a trained marksman yeah a hired trained marksman did you ever
01:11:48.860 get a look at any of these people um no they we saw them drive their vehicles in people were
01:11:56.720 saying that they were they were coming in um they were really really cautious to like stay
01:12:03.660 away from uh view but the following day i mean they were started to clean up process and i think
01:12:10.380 there was a bunch of them that were just like cutting bales and cutting the twine and making
01:12:15.180 a mess and whatever i don't know if they were the marks yeah some some of the photos of some of
01:12:21.540 these guys uh some of them with full-on face masks on some of them not um i i don't know if there was
01:12:30.300 any uh requisite gear that they had to wear but if if there was there definitely some of them
01:12:37.260 weren't wearing it oh yeah has anybody figured like where would they find people like this like
01:12:42.940 are these just random um hunters like looking well they tried to recruit people from the town
01:12:50.600 from the gun club um there was a time where uh the cfia person sort of in command of the of this
01:12:59.000 had tried to recruit people from the town um to be the shooters and people you know the
01:13:06.720 the hate group facebook group they were eager um so i don't know but i do know now a lot more about
01:13:15.520 who they hire for calls because i have read through um animal justice is a they're an
01:13:23.280 organization they released thousands of files on avian influenza response by cfia and so now i've
01:13:30.880 read all of them and i've read how much they spend on calls and how how they do it they have to do a
01:13:37.980 full report afterwards of how it was done and all of it their destruction compensation they're just
01:13:47.380 everything to do with their avian flu response. And they have actually hired companies that are
01:13:54.260 convicted of animal abuse, horrific, disgusting. I don't even want to say it in case my aunt is
01:13:59.940 watching. Horrific, disgusting animal abuse towards birds as they are killing them. And
01:14:08.040 they were actually convicted of it. This company is, they were called a Tegra or they are called
01:14:14.180 integra now they were sentenced to three years probation um and increased audits by the cfia
01:14:22.000 where they failed those audits the biosecurity portion of it um by failed by the same commander
01:14:28.980 of our our um area so she failed them and told them you know you guys are messing up your
01:14:37.740 biosecurity and if you keep doing that we are not going to hire you anymore so and that's the
01:14:43.780 All of the rules that they failed, they broke them all in front of us.
01:14:47.940 Everything that they had failed, that company.
01:14:50.260 So that is a company that was actually convicted,
01:14:52.380 and they just continued on paying them.
01:14:53.860 I think they paid them $780,000 or something the next year
01:14:57.320 after their conviction to do these calls.
01:15:01.320 What's the ultimate goal of this lawsuit, your family's lawsuit, Ellie?
01:15:08.060 I just want to start making things right.
01:15:10.680 I want balance back restored for what happened here.
01:15:14.480 And I think that this is just the first domino or second domino, I guess, because they've
01:15:19.280 already lost a tribunal for failing to issue that quarantine notice to my family correctly.
01:15:27.620 And if they failed to issue a quarantine notice correctly to Karen, because they just simply
01:15:32.720 emailed it and they were supposed to give it by hand, if they failed it and they didn't
01:15:37.880 serve that properly, then they definitely didn't serve us properly because we never got
01:15:42.040 a quarantine notice at all. And I would just like any CFIA who did anything to break the rules here
01:15:49.800 or bend the rules or anything like that. They all need to be held accountable for that.
01:15:55.360 Would it take an admission, just an apology? Like what exactly? I mean, obviously to go through,
01:16:04.440 especially somebody who's suffering from ptsd right now and your entire family is
01:16:09.440 to have to go through this prolonged court battle just for balance and i totally understand how
01:16:17.380 important balance is but would an apology from them some kind of a written statement publicly
01:16:24.220 would that help that would help it would help it would be a starting point they need to make
01:16:29.600 things right um they need to make things right with my aunt they need to make things right
01:16:34.120 in compensating her for what they took from her and the people who broke the rules the people
01:16:41.800 I mean they have ethical rules that are listed on their website of how their employees are
01:16:47.420 supposed to behave and their conflicts of interest they say that even the perception
01:16:53.960 of a conflict of interest is enough to be a conflict of interest and there were many there
01:16:58.700 i want all of that to be recognized and i want it to be acknowledged and i want anybody that
01:17:05.260 that broke these rules i mean i don't think that they should be in public service
01:17:09.480 they should you know something that you you guys probably don't know about ali that she's told me
01:17:14.940 and and i think i knew this from before is that you're a meticulous note taker uh and a taker of
01:17:21.120 video and you've got hours maybe even days of video that that will prove everything that you
01:17:29.720 were saying have you gone through all of it yeah yeah yeah unfortunately I did I re-watched and
01:17:36.940 relived all of it yeah in organizing it and because it was happening all too fast as things
01:17:42.260 were happening it was every day something absolutely crazy would happen and so it was
01:17:48.020 really hard to keep up with it all. I noticed that even before we got there, just from watching it
01:17:55.120 all online, it was really hard to just like take notes on what was happening. So I was doing as
01:18:00.220 much as I could. I was recording everything. I was recording video diaries of what was going on for
01:18:06.440 me, what my feelings were, what my parents were going through, what everybody was. I was just
01:18:11.540 recording everything possible because I thought this is like a natural disaster and we have to
01:18:17.400 prepare this for insurance purposes so yeah i have it all do you guys need support from the people
01:18:27.560 or are you not asking for that at this point like what's the situation there uh we're we're not
01:18:33.460 really i'm i i don't know how to how to do that especially with all of the the aggression online
01:18:40.680 it it people offer to support and um we're really really grateful for that i i am especially because
01:18:50.300 i mean it's really hard to function now so i am grateful when people are supportive i don't i
01:18:59.700 don't know how to really ask for that though so we just what what do you need like is there anything
01:19:06.320 that people can do even if it's just a message or something on on social media just to say hi and
01:19:12.240 um i i really need therapy um that that's what i've asked for i really need therapy and my
01:19:20.760 therapist is really expensive and out of my budget so um if anybody wanted to help the cost
01:19:26.320 of therapy i'd love that but other than that i think we need to keep spreading the message and
01:19:32.960 telling people what happened here and demanding accountability from our officials i think we need
01:19:39.800 to be still contacting everybody that we can contact we need to contact the mps we need to
01:19:44.460 contact everybody and just keep this in the focus uh i i can suggest something and and please
01:19:52.800 your your therapist yeah you know i mean your therapist might be able to help you with
01:19:59.000 symptoms of PTSD and whatnot, because they're professionals. But what I can say is that
01:20:03.560 you got to talk to people who are in the way of understanding, you know, like, and I'm not just
01:20:10.300 talking about that one particular incident. I'm talking about, you know, everybody right now,
01:20:16.280 who's, who's in this camp, who's in this wide awake and, and freedom and liberty camp.
01:20:22.840 We've all had something happen to us. We've all had that moment. Right. And so we,
01:20:29.000 and totally understand even though we may not have been there that one night
01:20:33.080 that you you've talked about this evening we can totally understand it because we're fully aware of
01:20:39.640 it and we've got our own feelings about it and i'm thinking maybe it would be a good idea
01:20:43.700 or and i think there might even be uh social media groups out there that actually do get together
01:20:51.040 on certain nights via video and they talk about their experiences through this and they
01:20:55.580 come to the understanding that I'm not alone, which I think is probably the most important
01:21:01.700 thing for people to be able to feel right now. And I know that you've got a great support group
01:21:06.180 as well. But to hear that from strangers that you've never met before, but you know that they're
01:21:15.000 going through the same kind of thing, it's very, very calming for the inside. And I can tell you
01:21:25.060 that because i've been through it myself again years and years and years ago so i i do find the
01:21:30.260 people that i i i do connect well with people who followed what was happening when it happened you
01:21:37.100 know when you say like if if you weren't there that night there was a lot of people who were
01:21:41.260 there virtually who who held on and and sat through it and listened to all of it and followed
01:21:49.420 it all um so i find that when i talk to people who who knew what really happened um it is really
01:21:57.860 comforting when they when they talk to us um we did put out um a form for people after it happened
01:22:07.380 like do you feel deeply affected by this for people to fill out and and got 700 submissions
01:22:13.660 of people of all different walks of life of all different professions you know therapists and
01:22:20.180 and firefighters and just everybody who had been deeply affected by it just all around the world
01:22:26.460 by what happened and how horrific it was wow 700 and i'll bet you that more
01:22:33.540 more would come uh you know if you made that a point of getting it out there again right like
01:22:41.620 because people are now they're wondering they're going like well what what happens next so thank
01:22:46.500 you for letting us know tonight Allie what happens next I want to stay in touch with you and and the
01:22:50.780 family and I think your your aunt was saying I talked to her on her birthday so maybe a month
01:22:56.060 ago a month and a half I messaged her and said happy birthday to her and and uh you know thought
01:23:02.520 about maybe coming back out again and doing something you know like just bring some people
01:23:08.780 and let's try and have a party or something but i know that it's different now it is it's it is
01:23:14.940 different it's i mean it's it's different langel road separates the ostriches were on the top and
01:23:24.220 and the house and everything is on the bottom and once you cross up into that ostrich land it is
01:23:30.460 very very different and very sad and which sucks for us because we're on that same side of langel
01:23:35.260 road but my aunt's house is still as warm as it was before and all of that like it's that part's
01:23:42.600 still really nice do you think that if we brought a couple hundred people out for a weekend it would
01:23:48.160 be a fun time or would it be more of a it would be fun yeah yeah well then maybe we'll start
01:23:55.000 thinking about that we've got a whole summer in front of us right exactly it'll be fun ali thank
01:24:00.260 you for coming on tonight. And we're going to stay in touch and maybe come up with something
01:24:05.020 that we can do to help out. And you guys can go ahead and find her on Facebook right there. You
01:24:09.980 see, that's how it's spelled. Allie with one L. That's right. Find her on Facebook and make
01:24:15.780 friends with her. Thank you, Allie. And we'll talk again soon. And don't forget to say hi to
01:24:20.420 the family from all of us. I will. I will. Thank you. Okay. All right. Good night. Allie Turnbull.
01:24:27.480 hadn't had her on before remarkable guest i want to thank you guys for being here tonight now what
01:24:34.620 i was going to do is the rest of the show i'm just going to blow through this if you guys don't mind
01:24:41.120 because there is some news that we do have to cover uh starting with this this is good news
01:24:47.680 the senate has voted down c9 amendments to criminalize residential school denialism what
01:24:54.740 you may not know is that a few days ago when this bill went to the senate human rights committee
01:25:03.240 there was one indigenous senator i believe from the northwest territories who said you know
01:25:09.240 um we need to make some amendments to this bill and c9 is already bad enough this is the hate
01:25:15.860 speech bill this is the bill that can get you in trouble in jail time or heavy fines for quoting
01:25:23.000 the Bible, in case you guys were completely unaware of that. Well, this one senator wanted
01:25:30.040 to make an amendment for residential school denialism, and that passed the Senate Human
01:25:36.280 Rights Committee a couple of days ago. Well, today, the Senate has voted down those C9 amendments to
01:25:43.280 criminalize residential school denialism. The Senate voted down the amendments after the Senate's
01:25:49.400 Human Rights Committee voted nearly unanimously to amend the bill to criminalize residential
01:25:53.860 school denialism. The final count of that vote, by the way, was seven to one. And I want you to
01:25:58.940 understand that if this had passed and they sent this bill back through the Senate for third
01:26:06.120 reading, then back to the House of Commons, and then finally for royal assent, that would have
01:26:11.140 been law in this country. Had you gone online or even said something privately to somebody else,
01:26:18.500 and they reported you, you could have been arrested for questioning the authenticity of
01:26:25.800 the claims about residential schools, no matter what part of the residential school lie they've
01:26:32.160 been telling. Like the 215 bodies found near that former residential school in Kamloops,
01:26:39.360 which is a lie. Even the Globe and Mail finally came out after five years last Friday and said
01:26:46.320 that they were wrong. Five years later, the CBC still perpetuating that lie.
01:26:58.460 You could have been criminalized. I could have been thrown in jail. Anybody could have been
01:27:03.340 thrown in jail for questioning a lie. That's what our country is coming down to at this stage of the
01:27:12.500 game. The sole conservative senator on the committee who voted on the motion, Senator
01:27:18.120 David Wells, defended his choice to support the amendments to Juneau News, but later noted that
01:27:23.460 he voted against the committee's report, which struck them down. The Senate of Canada announced
01:27:28.800 on X today the Senate had voted down the committee's third report, which attempted to
01:27:33.320 criminalize residential school denialism and ban symbols of nooses and white pointy hoods
01:27:40.220 with 41 nays against 32 yeas and two senators abstaining from voting.
01:27:48.440 Indeed, freedom of expression is under attack.
01:27:51.240 So here's where it is right now.
01:27:52.900 Again, this is the progress, and you can do this with any bill that's in progress,
01:27:57.800 like maybe C-22, which is also a problem for anybody who believes in free speech and privacy.
01:28:04.140 So this is where we're at right now.
01:28:05.560 The report stage completed today.
01:28:07.860 committee report defeated and now it goes back to the house of commons
01:28:14.340 actually no it goes back to a full vote in the senate and then it goes back to the house of
01:28:20.820 commons so we'll see what happens and by the way during this final third reading in the senate they
01:28:27.200 can make more amendments they can go ahead and say well wait a minute hold on before we go any
01:28:31.100 further maybe we could go ahead and tweak this and change that don't know if they will but they can't
01:28:38.700 From left-wing corporate CTV, ultimately fall on Canadian consumers through higher prices,
01:28:45.220 government orders review of the CRTC decision.
01:28:48.040 The CRTC decision to go ahead and multiply by three the amount of money paid by big-time streamers
01:28:56.260 to work in Canada, to be allowed to operate in Canada.
01:28:59.820 So we're talking about YouTube, which is owned by Google.
01:29:02.820 We're talking about Netflix.
01:29:04.180 We're talking about Amazon.
01:29:05.260 we are talking about big time streamers you probably watch them at home you want to i want
01:29:11.620 to do a what's it called netflix and chill well the crtc through the liberal government had decided
01:29:20.300 that you know five percent wasn't enough five percent of their canadian earnings in tax wasn't
01:29:28.960 enough so they were going to make it 15 and the conservatives of course spoke up and said that's
01:29:34.680 absolutely ridiculous, but also the big streaming companies as well. And so the liberals walked that
01:29:41.360 back today. They walked it back. They actually admitted. Now, I do have some video here
01:29:45.760 from one of the CPC MPs, Rachel Thomas, who was very adamant about fighting back against this
01:29:53.200 particular move by the CRTC in committee. Here she is talking to media today.
01:29:59.600 After nearly two weeks of excuses and trying to mislead the Canadian public,
01:30:04.680 The Liberals are now backpedaling and admitting that the Conservatives were, in fact, correct.
01:30:09.900 The CRTC made a decision to triple the streaming tax from 5% to 15%,
01:30:14.200 thereby making services like Disney+, Netflix, and Spotify more expensive to the Canadian consumer.
01:30:20.800 The Liberals tried to mislead Canadians by claiming that it was out of their control.
01:30:24.420 They could do nothing about it.
01:30:26.320 Meanwhile, Conservatives continued to fight.
01:30:29.480 We were told that we were making up a, quote, imaginary tax.
01:30:32.680 The Liberals were content to sit back and do nothing, as Canadians were burdened with
01:30:37.500 yet another cost, until Conservatives drew attention to the issue and pressure was applied
01:30:43.800 and thanks to our friends in the media, the message was out.
01:30:46.780 But today, thanks to Conservatives holding them accountable, they are finally willing
01:30:50.460 to admit their flaw.
01:30:51.960 In fact, I brought a little show and tell.
01:30:56.600 First one here, May 28th, the title reads, Liberals say they can't overturn decision
01:31:00.680 tripling streamers can contributions and then an update on june 3rd the title reads ottawa calls
01:31:07.620 for review of crtc decision on streamers can con contributions complete change in a news release
01:31:16.360 from the department of canadian heritage the government stated that the minister of canadian
01:31:20.440 identity and culture would direct the crtc to review its recent decision they gave this instruction
01:31:26.860 because, quote, the CRTC's new requirements would impose new costs on the companies providing these
01:31:33.040 services, which could ultimately fall on Canadian consumers through their higher prices, end quote.
01:31:39.500 Only after immense pressure from Conservatives have the Liberals finally decided to do something.
01:31:46.260 Well, in my opinion, that's not completely true, but we're going to get to that. Now,
01:31:52.700 she did say that the liberals said the tax was absolutely invisible it's not there i don't even
01:31:57.620 know what you guys are talking about it she's right this is government house leader steve
01:32:02.480 mckinnon on the floor of the house of commons last week clear canadians deserve to have production
01:32:09.440 creation and their stories told by canadians for canadians in canada by these global giant
01:32:18.900 platforms there is no tax there is no tax period it is imaginary it is fake and this is the same
01:32:28.200 people mr speaker who want to defund the cbc who want to kill our cultural industries who want to
01:32:34.560 take canada out of every single piece of there is no tax
01:32:42.840 and just today they say you know what uh we're getting rid of this tax
01:32:50.600 i'm confused these liberals they don't stand for anything nothing at all it's very interesting
01:33:01.480 why they did this the conservatives are going to try and take credit for it and say after
01:33:05.520 relentless pressure the liberals finally decided to cape that's not what happened
01:33:09.960 that's not even close to what happened you want to know what really happened i'll tell you what
01:33:14.320 happened dominic leblanc our u.s trade representative went down to washington last night
01:33:20.680 and i'm certain that he was told in no uncertain terms by jameson greer who is the lead u.s
01:33:29.200 negotiator of trade when it comes to all countries that he was told unless you get rid of this
01:33:35.060 ridiculous streaming tax? We are going to make your life absolutely brutal. More and more and
01:33:42.860 more and more and more tariffs. And by the way, there was another tariff added this morning,
01:33:46.440 Carney addressed, and we'll get to that. But then he probably said, we're not even going to bother
01:33:52.840 renegotiating the USMCA. And if that happens, then Canada, it's over. There is no Canada anymore.
01:34:01.620 so dominic leblanc was questioned by reporters last night and this morning and uh i don't even
01:34:11.860 know what he's talking about here watch maybe you can figure it out optimistic uh you acknowledge
01:34:16.400 that the road ahead is going to have curves in it it's not straightforward but there is concern
01:34:20.480 at homes in terms of like getting to uh maybe a more formal round of negotiation how soon are we
01:34:27.720 going to start having these more sort of formal USMCA discussions with Mexico
01:34:33.540 concluding one formal round of talks and two more scheduled in Canada as far as I
01:34:38.180 yet know not having any formal talk scheduled how are we not behind have the
01:34:42.540 Americans giving you any indication of any obstacles before they're willing to
01:34:47.700 say hey we're now in formal talks this trip has not been without some turbulence
01:34:55.720 um we've all been in context where there's turbulence i do not underestimate the potential
01:35:03.240 moments of turbulence that could occur in the next few weeks and months don't take your seat belt off
01:35:09.000 and run up and down the aisle and kick in the cockpit door um you remain focused on the work
01:35:15.080 that you need to do and you come through the turbulence very much focused on the outcome
01:35:21.080 I go back to my answer. That's part of the turbulence of our process here in Washington.
01:35:29.680 Sometimes you can have a very smooth ride with no turbulence, so I remain optimistic that we'll focus on the latter.
01:35:39.000 What is he even talking about?
01:35:42.220 Is it turbulence? Sometimes you have a rough ride, sometimes it's smooth.
01:35:47.180 dude why don't you just come across and say uh look you know what we're working on negotiations
01:35:52.420 we hope to have a deal in place we hope to be able to go to the table with the united states
01:35:57.260 and mexico and get this whole kuzma thing sorted out we'd love that instead he's speaking in
01:36:04.060 euphemisms in both official languages he was dressed down last night absolutely dressed down
01:36:11.460 And he was told, like I say, in no uncertain terms, that tax that you're putting on our
01:36:17.340 business, our tech businesses, our streaming businesses up there, get rid of it.
01:36:21.860 It's a massive trade irritant.
01:36:23.500 And if you don't, then we're not going to make a deal.
01:36:26.460 There won't even be discussions, the beginnings of discussions to make a deal.
01:36:31.280 And the Americans won't be done there either, because you want to know what?
01:36:34.680 They hate censorship.
01:36:37.280 They hate bills like C9.
01:36:38.800 They hate bills like C22.
01:36:41.460 which is being debated and questioned in committee this week for the last couple of days.
01:36:48.440 I give you Alex Surgeoner, who is an attorney with the Canadian Constitution Foundation,
01:36:53.820 and he was talking in committee today about this ridiculous bill,
01:36:58.020 which grants the government and police agencies a backdoor into your personal data, no matter who you are.
01:37:06.220 Our concern with this bill is long-standing, and it dates back to, really, the progenitor bill, Bill C-2.
01:37:14.880 And while we're pleased with the evolution there and the modest amendments and changes that followed,
01:37:23.280 we remain concerned, even more concerned, in fact, about Bill C-22, and that's why I'm here.
01:37:28.840 The concern really is this, and I don't mean to be hyperbolic,
01:37:32.180 But truly, it's difficult to escape the inference that Bill C-22 would establish a pretty powerful regime of surveillance
01:37:42.220 and would constitute a pretty severe invasion into the privacy of everyday Canadians.
01:37:48.220 Our concerns fundamentally are about the intrusiveness, the vulnerability, and the overall secrecy that this bill envisions.
01:37:56.080 So allow me to identify exactly what I understand this bill requires.
01:37:59.700 So-called core providers may be ordered to develop, test, and maintain technical capabilities for extracting information, and in particular, computer data.
01:38:12.080 I'll get to that in a moment.
01:38:13.520 This would be achieved in part by installing, using, and maintaining a prolonged and continued access, perhaps, to any given device.
01:38:23.420 now the concern here of course is that it's not just so-called core providers it's the fact that
01:38:31.700 electronic service providers which is an enormously which carries with it an enormously
01:38:37.860 broad definition could following a ministerial order also be required to undertake those same
01:38:45.380 acts that the so-called core providers are so very quickly an electronic service provider and
01:38:49.880 I'll define that in about five seconds, could also become a core, excuse me, yes, a core provider.
01:38:57.000 So, again, there's no reassurance to be had in really defining those two terms differently.
01:39:02.880 They're one and the same and would be quite quickly.
01:39:07.160 Now, what is an electronic service provider?
01:39:10.760 It is any entity that provides business in this country or conducts a portion of its business in this country
01:39:16.100 through electronic channels, be it through the internet or through perhaps software that's
01:39:22.980 installed and kept locally on a device. So internet connectivity is relevant in that case.
01:39:29.000 Now at heart here, and this is really the pith of this, is the concern about metadata. Metadata is
01:39:34.840 information about information. And so while the context of a text message might not be accessible,
01:39:41.280 The fact that a text message, as an example, was sent could be accessed.
01:39:46.980 To whom, when, how, all of that is fair game.
01:39:50.480 The fact that a phone was used on the Hill in Ottawa and then two days later is in a library in Cornerbrook
01:39:56.480 and another day later finds itself in a hotel room in Saskatoon, all of that's fair game.
01:40:01.500 We can, with this bill, monitor that, keep track of that, follow that.
01:40:05.920 In other words, the entirely innocuous and inherently private comings and goings of ordinary citizens
01:40:10.860 is up for grabs, up to a year's worth of movement, communication, work, and ordinary life
01:40:16.740 would be preserved for review, while the private citizen, of course, is kept completely oblivious
01:40:21.860 as to this occurring or not. And though the bill says that no such order would be made if it would
01:40:28.140 introduce a systemic vulnerability, I'm not particularly sanguine about that. The notion
01:40:34.080 that only the bad guys, excuse me, that only the good guys will have access to this, flies in the
01:40:39.280 face of examples from our peer nations in the Five Eyes who have suffered data breaches of exactly
01:40:45.900 the sort that would constitute a systemic vulnerability. If the aim is to better
01:40:51.980 investigate criminal activity, and I have some knowledge of this having worked as a criminal
01:40:55.240 defense lawyer, so I've seen both sides of this, it's unclear to me why the proposed powers have
01:40:59.240 to be so broad so as to capture basically every device in this country. The CCF would gently
01:41:04.220 remind everyone of the terms public official and private citizen and the key distinction
01:41:09.120 there the importance of privacy cannot be overstated privacy is about dignity and autonomy
01:41:14.400 and these are the predicates of a free society to have a truly free society we must be free to make
01:41:19.280 our choices without the sense of being monitored and of course not even knowing that we're being
01:41:23.760 monitored i see that i'm at time so once again i thank you for hearing our concerns
01:41:28.400 and inviting me to participate in this critically important discussion
01:41:31.200 alex surgeoner of the canadian constitution foundation now when we talk about walk around
01:41:40.900 without the feeling of being monitored wait till you hear what's going on at brampton
01:41:46.460 that's that's insane but we've got signal now if you got signal on your phone signal
01:41:53.940 a lot of people communicate through signal because it's encrypted and nobody can read
01:42:00.420 what your messages are well if c22 passes that means signal is going to have to build a backdoor
01:42:07.080 so the government can go and see what you've been doing through their app for at least the last year
01:42:12.080 all that metadata and signal says well that flies in the face of how we market ourselves we are about
01:42:19.500 privacy so they're going to leave they're going to leave canada if c22 passes watch this i just
01:42:26.080 have two brief questions for you, which should probably just be brief in response. Is it fair
01:42:33.900 to say that Signal's position, which you've laid out very clearly today, is not about resisting
01:42:39.240 lawful access generally? No. Signal's position is that laws should not compel service providers
01:42:50.060 to start collecting information that they do not already collect. Perfect. Thank you. So when
01:42:55.540 signal says it would exit canada rather than comply is that a decision triggered only by
01:43:01.220 direct access to messages or would metadata retention and system redesign requirements
01:43:06.980 alone be enough to make compliance impossible the last two examples that you just stated
01:43:14.340 would also be enough to make us not serve the market as they would fundamentally change our
01:43:19.140 product and you can bet other services you know like any vpn they'll all leave every single
01:43:29.120 privacy tech that you can get for your computer they're all going to go because it flies in the
01:43:36.660 face of the service they offer right no more privacy not for you not for any canadian
01:43:41.280 and no more freedom of speech either let's get back to that for a second shall we
01:43:46.860 carrie lynn findley as you know was recently like this past weekend elected as the conservative
01:43:55.340 leader of the british columbia and she was having a conversation with kian bexty of juno news i
01:44:02.180 think it was yesterday or maybe the day before he's releasing segments of it online now and he
01:44:08.320 asked her about bill c9 he just talked about this that hate speech bill where they wanted to
01:44:13.900 criminalize residential school denialism now that amendment didn't pass but who knows they might
01:44:18.980 try and bring it back here's what findley says about censorship one of the things you just
01:44:23.360 mentioned was censorship and just a few hours before we sat down for this interview the senate
01:44:29.220 in ottawa uh committee voted 7-1 to support uh the criminalization up to two years in prison
01:44:36.980 for anything the government deems to be denialism about residential schools whatever that means it's
01:44:42.660 not super clear. And one of the things that you've made pretty central in your platform is
01:44:47.980 repealing DRIPA and sort of going back and looking at what has built this country and what are the
01:44:54.360 issues for treaty people, for everyone else. And I'm wondering, how do you balance all this when
01:44:59.720 Ottawa seems to be focused on flooding the airs and just deciding?
01:45:04.860 if a government feels they can only move forward by censoring their own citizens we have a huge
01:45:17.940 problem and i think we do have a huge problem here in canada but in bc i'm now the leader of
01:45:25.700 the conservative party of british columbia i intend to take these issues to british columbians and
01:45:31.840 to win in an election with clarity and focus on these issues.
01:45:39.620 I'm a negotiator by training and by nature,
01:45:43.060 and I am hoping that we can have principled, accountable negotiations
01:45:51.140 on these sensitive, multilayered issues and get to progress.
01:45:56.320 I'm imagining mostly through economic partnerships, that sort of thing,
01:46:00.740 that benefit all british colombians but a government approach that is shutting down
01:46:09.160 opposition through legislation to me that's coercion and i simply don't agree with it i'll fight it
01:46:18.460 okay so we're getting good we're getting more common sense not necessarily conservative because
01:46:25.440 i don't want to use that word anymore man like conservative liberal democrat whatever
01:46:29.840 there's common sense versus crazy at this stage of the game there's good versus evil and it seems
01:46:36.000 to me we're getting more and more good people in the positions they need to be in to beat this
01:46:41.620 nonsense back i'm not suggesting for one second that we're going to be able to vote our way out
01:46:46.700 of this completely because the entire system has been infiltrated by the loonies and the
01:46:51.060 and the and the evil quackadoos but it's a start it's a start in the meantime we still got this
01:46:58.720 ridiculous government in power, federally speaking. Now, there's new tariffs in play here
01:47:04.960 from the Americans. It was just announced this morning. They've announced new tariffs over forced
01:47:09.560 labor concerns. This was Trump's way of getting around that court ruling that stopped him from
01:47:14.480 enforcing these tariffs a couple of months ago. I think the Supreme Court ruled on that. And so he
01:47:19.360 said, well, OK, we're just going to do it like this. Then any country that imports products from
01:47:24.400 other countries through forced labor meaning those products are made using forced labor then we can
01:47:31.020 go ahead and put tariffs on them so what country in the world that you know of comes right to mind
01:47:36.120 immediately uses forced labor to manufacture their products i would say china and their uyghur
01:47:45.180 population and canada is now importing we've got a deal with china a deal right 49 000 evs are
01:47:55.280 coming or already here from china and there's going to be other products from china coming soon
01:47:59.420 what do what do we get to do with them sell them some canola awesome is that worth more u.s tariffs
01:48:07.880 I would say probably not. The U.S. has announced new tariffs of 10 to 12.5 percent on dozens of
01:48:15.660 countries, accounting for almost all its imports over concerns they're not doing enough to tackle
01:48:21.020 forced labor. It's the second time Donald Trump's administration has announced new import taxes
01:48:26.640 since the U.S. Supreme Court struck down many of his previous duties in February. The U.S. Trade
01:48:33.200 Department said these countries will face the tariffs because of their failure to address the
01:48:37.320 importing of goods made with forced labor. Mark Carney was asked about that very thing this
01:48:44.320 morning. Minister LeBlanc had very constructive discussions with his counterpart, Ambassador
01:48:53.240 Greer, yesterday in Washington, along with our chief negotiator, Janet Charette. Secondly,
01:48:58.940 with respect to these 301 tariffs, this is not a surprise. It's something that the U.S. has been
01:49:05.220 planning for a few months. I think very importantly is
01:49:09.420 that two things. One is that the tariffs are consulted
01:49:12.780 for 30 days or 30 plus days. Secondly,
01:49:17.380 explicitly in the decision, Canada, the carve-out
01:49:21.380 for Kuzma is referenced and maintained. So that puts us
01:49:25.420 in a position where, again, we would still have
01:49:28.840 the best trade deal of any of the U.S. trade
01:49:33.280 counterparts. I want to say as well that the issue, the motivation of the U.S. action,
01:49:40.360 the 301 tariffs against or proposed tariffs against a variety of countries is something
01:49:45.600 that we share. Canada has a very strong legislative regime against forced labor
01:49:50.960 in supply chains. We don't want any element of forced labor coming in.
01:49:56.800 Except, of course, for those Chinese EVs, 49,000 of them.
01:50:02.680 We'll take those, even if they were made with forced labor by Uyghur slaves.
01:50:09.120 He's lying.
01:50:10.240 We want to use our influence to eliminate this practice of forced labor and child labor.
01:50:18.160 We have been preparing ways to reinforce the regime that we have.
01:50:23.520 We made some changes earlier this year on things that, candidly, were not as effective.
01:50:27.660 So there's ways we can change things legislatively.
01:50:30.380 We'll be proposing that to the House in the coming weeks before the House rises,
01:50:35.480 which is our intention, and then taking steps to move forward on that.
01:50:38.840 So when you boil down the action, we support the overall objective, the U.S. action, I should say.
01:50:45.600 i would note that in effect how it's drafted um for the vast vast vast majority of canadian trade
01:50:53.940 it will not have an impact um but um now he's i'm sorry for the audio you guys it's terrible
01:51:01.420 it sucks but what he's talking about is well you know most of canada's because we've got the best
01:51:06.000 deal with the united states in the world anyway we got kuzma right so what he's talking about is
01:51:11.080 that most of the products that we send to the U.S. won't be affected anyway because of USMCA,
01:51:17.500 because of Kuzma. But here's the problem. Kuzma, we don't know what the Americans are going to do.
01:51:24.140 Like they're already, you know, through stage one of a bilateral deal with Mexico, and they haven't
01:51:29.460 even started talking to Canada yet. Well, maybe they started yesterday when they told LeBlanc,
01:51:34.200 get rid of those taxes on the streamers, or we're never going to talk. Maybe.
01:51:39.140 But what if the Americans decide to come to the table?
01:51:42.920 Because, you know, Kuzma, USMCA, is being renegotiated in less than a month.
01:51:48.600 So what if the Americans come to the table and say, you know what?
01:51:53.560 We're giving you notice, guys.
01:51:55.740 We're giving you six months notice and then we're out.
01:51:58.480 And everything that you send to us from that point forward is going to be subject to whatever tariff I see fit.
01:52:06.400 And then Canada's screwed.
01:52:08.020 So Carney is standing there talking to these reporters and saying, well, don't worry about anything because we've got Kuzma.
01:52:13.740 We might not.
01:52:18.340 However, it's nice to see that, you know, there's some sense in the Canadian negotiating team because they did reverse those those taxes on the streamers today after I'm sure LeBlanc was told to do that last night.
01:52:32.460 if the americans play hardball finally then maybe we'll start getting some stuff going on what i
01:52:41.300 was talking about earlier getting rid of all of this censorship nonsense okay trump is going to
01:52:46.540 say and it's not even trump it's jd vance who's handling this particular area right he's going to
01:52:51.520 say all right so you've got bill c11 you got bill c18 you got bill c22 you got c9 all of these bills
01:52:57.480 need to go. No censorship, nothing, or we're not going to do business. I'm sorry,
01:53:03.500 we can't do business with an authoritarian regime, Mark. So get rid of all of this censorship
01:53:09.580 nonsense because we believe in freedom of speech. I mean, he's already given the Europeans that
01:53:16.800 spiel. It would not surprise me one bit if he starts giving Canadians that spiel in the next
01:53:23.160 month or so as it relates to renegotiating the USMCA. So we'll see what happens. In the meantime,
01:53:30.480 are we in a recession? Yes, we're in a technical recession. Pierre Polyev and
01:53:38.120 Mark Carney had it out today. And here's what happened in the House of Commons. And this is
01:53:44.040 actually quite telling about Mark Carney. Watch this. The multinational corporations that he is
01:53:49.260 profiting are very pleased with the way things are going. As for the Canadian people who are
01:53:54.780 living under his recession, it's another story. They don't have $200,000 meals on three private
01:54:02.380 flights, Mr. Speaker. They don't have tax havens so that they can shelter from the high tax burden
01:54:07.700 he imposes on everyone else. He can't even bring himself to utter the word recession,
01:54:13.380 even though the textbook definition tells us that he's the only prime minister, the only leader in
01:54:18.320 the G20, who's created one? So will he stand in the House and answer the question, are
01:54:22.780 we in a recession or a technical recession?
01:54:26.520 Mr. Speaker, we are in an economy that is fundamentally being transformed by a government
01:54:35.920 that has a plan, that has a plan to create a stronger, more independent, more resilient
01:54:41.760 economy, a sustainable economy, an economy that moves from reliance to resilience.
01:54:48.320 And Mr. Speaker, we are already seeing business investment.
01:54:51.400 Canadian business investment up 10% in machinery and equipment.
01:54:54.980 We are seeing our non-U.S. exports up on course to double.
01:54:59.560 We are seeing the strongest inbound investment in Canada.
01:55:05.660 My question for the Prime Minister is about the human cost of Canada being the only G20 country in the recession.
01:55:16.740 Zahra from Toronto lost her administrative job at a real estate business.
01:55:20.980 She can't find a new job and now has to sleep on a friend's couch.
01:55:27.780 What's the Prime Minister going to tell her if he cares enough to stand up and answer?
01:55:32.660 Is he going to tell her that she's just technically homeless and technically jobless?
01:55:40.420 The Right Honourable Prime Minister.
01:55:42.500 Mr. Speaker, I'd like to wish the chief of the opposition, leader of the opposition,
01:55:51.360 a happy birthday. I hope his day improves. This is not a joke. This is a woman's life.
01:55:57.180 This prime minister gave us the only recession in the G20 and he stands up and starts joking
01:56:03.620 about. Now, you see, this is very interesting. Polyev, you can tell that he's been put off by
01:56:08.200 that remark by carney sloughing off that woman's situation because normally
01:56:15.060 these guys they refer to the speaker not just by name like they're actually looking at the speaker
01:56:24.900 they they don't look at each other it's kind of a house breach it's unparliamentary they say
01:56:31.880 and poly have has already been warned once or twice this week that his language was a little
01:56:38.300 bit i touch maybe over the line now there's nobody in the house of commons that maybe andrew sheer
01:56:44.240 other than andrew sheer there's nobody in the house of commons who knows the rules
01:56:48.420 better than pierre poly have he's been there for over 20 years so to see him do this
01:56:54.740 shows you in my opinion that he is very passionate about the story that he just told
01:57:02.440 and he is scolding the prime minister for responding as he did watch mr speaker i'd like
01:57:11.020 to wish the chief of the opposition uh leader of the opposition a happy birthday i hope his day
01:57:17.780 improves this is not a joke this is a woman's life this prime minister gave us the only
01:57:24.580 recession in the g20 and he stands up and starts joking about her state of affairs
01:57:29.620 she's sleeping on someone's couch mr speaker will the prime minister so listen to all the other
01:57:35.540 liberals too right yelling and screaming they have absolutely zero respect for the people of this
01:57:46.020 country or care polyeth gets up and tells a canadian story now it may or may not be true i
01:57:55.660 don't know maybe it is maybe it's not it could be and if it is you'd better not as a politician
01:58:03.800 stand there and call it down in parliament are you kidding me right now what kind of person does
01:58:12.200 that. Here's a person that works a full-time job. She's making $80,000 a year. She's sleeping
01:58:19.560 on a friend's couch. She's in her 40s. Maybe she's got kids. Who knows? You don't know all
01:58:25.780 of her circumstances. She can't get by on the money she's making. All the liberals yelling.
01:58:36.720 that's not cool at all stop being so flippant about the suffering that he's caused in the
01:58:45.740 lives of canadian and tell zara is her homelessness and joblessness just a technicality
01:58:52.660 you can see mckinnon sitting across the way there the government house leader the one that
01:59:09.720 lied about the fact there's no taxes on streamers or no new tax whatever it was you can he's sitting
01:59:15.520 there smiling smirking what's the matter with these people how out of touch how tone deaf do
01:59:22.580 you have to be. And even with all of the nonsense that's going on in our country right now, the
01:59:27.760 crime, the gun grab, the climate change BS, the money laundering for Brookfield, all of it.
01:59:39.120 There's a poll out there. There's a new poll came out today. Now, this is one of the reasons that
01:59:45.840 i no longer believe in them there's no way unless most canadians are completely idiots
01:59:52.740 or just not paying attention that this could be that's a big number carney's liberals hit record
02:00:00.400 high 50 support 50 you guys got to understand that a strong number for any one political party
02:00:09.400 in canada is 40 very strong 50 almost unheard of the carny liberals even with everything
02:00:18.680 the floor crossing nonsense the backroom deals now have the support of half of all canadians
02:00:27.680 according to a new post media legere poll the first time any governing party has hit that
02:00:32.600 benchmark in popular support in more than two decades the poll conducted over the last week
02:00:38.840 found that 50% of decided voters said that they would most likely support the liberals if federal
02:00:45.020 elections were held today. The poll found that the conservatives have the support of 34% of
02:00:50.320 Canadians down three from April. Both the NDP and the bloc are at 6% support, even though there's a
02:00:56.640 different poll that came out earlier this week that says the NDP is at 13. Another poll says
02:01:01.500 they're at 15 because of Abby Lewis. Why? I don't know. The Green Party, 3% up one percentage point.
02:01:08.840 The percentage of Canadians who now say they'd likely support one of the two major parties is almost identical to the historically high 85.1% who did so during the last federal election when the dominant issue was how Canada should respond to the trade and sovereignty threats of Donald Trump.
02:01:25.820 that's the state of our country right now that's why the west especially alberta and saskatchewan
02:01:32.580 feel so alienated because there's nothing that they can do to get back to common sense
02:01:39.900 you can go ahead and vote conservative all you want federally speaking as a matter of fact almost
02:01:45.380 every mp from alberta is a conservative same with saskatchewan and what does that get you
02:01:51.160 opposition
02:01:52.800 what are you going to do now pierre polyev says well you know what when there's conservatives
02:02:01.200 in power we really stabilize the country bring it back together again look at what stephen harper
02:02:05.560 did yeah okay that's great when's the last time you're in power oh 11 years ago awesome
02:02:11.500 are you ever going to be back in power again no what's mark carney doing celebrating pride day
02:02:19.300 making us build carbon capture devices that nobody else in the world is building at a cost
02:02:25.920 of 30 billion dollars just so we can have a pipeline just so we can sell our product to
02:02:32.780 the world and make everybody money and we got to go through regulatory nonsense and we got to go
02:02:42.380 through the indians and we got to go through this and we got to go through that oh and by the way
02:02:46.180 Property is a problem in B.C. right now.
02:02:49.740 You might not own it, even though you have technically owned it for the last 30 or 40 years.
02:02:55.060 Now, the court decision might change everything.
02:02:59.280 We don't know.
02:03:00.720 What are the liberals doing about it?
02:03:02.220 Not much.
02:03:05.260 And if they truly do hold 50% of the popular vote in this country, then Alberta needs to go.
02:03:12.620 This country needs to separate.
02:03:16.180 it does because it just can't continue like this
02:03:24.180 the west cannot be subservient to subservient to the east anymore it's just
02:03:31.780 the west has outgrown that relationship that's how this relationship was started
02:03:36.660 but it's long since past due so either alberta becomes independent
02:03:46.220 or joins another country maybe i don't know something like china
02:03:55.680 not china you you guys know who i'm talking about got a couple more things here before
02:04:03.640 we wrap it up for the night and that is this story here new 360 degree cameras in Brampton
02:04:12.580 and apparently they're helping police solve crimes according to the mayor Patrick Brown here's a CBC
02:04:19.340 piece on it a very clear goal in Brampton and that is to make our city and Peel region the most
02:04:25.640 inconvenient place in the country to commit a crime in a new collaborative effort between the
02:04:31.120 City and Peel Police, 50 of these security cameras have been installed across Brampton with a goal
02:04:36.420 of reducing crime. The cameras show a 360 view of an area through the use of four omnidirectional
02:04:42.540 lenses, getting a full picture of a spot like an intersection to capture scenes of crimes in real
02:04:47.680 time. It isn't brand new technology, but what's different is the integration of live monitoring
02:04:52.980 from police. These pieces of technology transmit right into our community safety operation center
02:05:00.080 in real time. That is, we have a human in the loop monitoring what is happening when they are
02:05:06.800 notified of an incident. The mayor says the community was consulted through a telephone
02:05:11.480 town hall with just under 8,000 participants and had a very positive response. He says the
02:05:17.280 only people who should be concerned about the technology are the ones committing crimes.
02:05:22.000 We've heard loud and clear that the vast, vast majority of the city wants us to use new technology,
02:05:28.500 wants us to use cameras in the case of these cameras over 84 percent said absolutely they
02:05:34.900 wanted to see cameras rolled out in the city there was very little opposition to this understanding
02:05:41.060 that any privacy that is lost is only for those committing criminal criminal acts and if they
02:05:48.580 want to protect their privacy don't commit a crime in Brampton. Peel police say the cameras have
02:05:52.880 already assisted in over 200 investigations, including two homicide cases leading to arrests.
02:05:59.200 Some community members say the trade-off of higher surveillance for better public safety
02:06:03.280 is worth it. Crime is not something anyone really wants, so to sort of combat this,
02:06:08.280 something has to be implemented, and this is just one of them. It will feel me safer,
02:06:13.100 like, okay, I'm being washed, it's here, and if something's going to happen, everything's
02:06:18.880 being recorded. With growing population, with sophisticated crime, all this is necessary now.
02:06:25.600 The hope is that this technology can help improve investigative efforts. The city also
02:06:30.640 mentioned devices like drones that can immediately go to scenes and show footage of what's happening
02:06:36.000 in real time before officers arrive. The hope is that the improvement of this technology will help
02:06:41.220 keep people safe. Yeah, of course. Let's have a look at what's going on in Brampton these days.
02:06:48.880 It's recently seen a surge in extortion, organized crime, targeting local business owners, largely within the South Asian diaspora, India.
02:07:00.280 In a coordinated 2026 crackdown, police arrested 17 men with 12 from Brampton linked to a gang known as Four Brothers, which was responsible for shootings and arson.
02:07:11.000 Many of the accused are temporary residents.
02:07:13.380 Oh, they've got an extortion task force and everything.
02:07:19.680 Recent crime incidents, gang activity, and the immigration status of suspects in Brampton
02:07:24.220 involve, okay, so the extortion task force, what else did we get here?
02:07:29.820 Immigration status of suspects, substantial number of those arrested are non-citizens
02:07:34.000 who arrived in Canada on temporary visas.
02:07:36.080 Okay, so, you know, before we get, you know, too far down that road, all I'm saying is
02:07:41.900 you bring in the third world, you become the third world, and then you put everybody under
02:07:48.700 360 surveillance boom isn't this exactly what we've been talking about for the past five years
02:07:57.540 you create the problem and you've already got the solution in hand and this solution
02:08:04.220 is for your safety just like every other one don't worry we've got it covered we're going
02:08:10.700 to be monitoring everybody everywhere all the time so getting back to the americans
02:08:21.680 are they doing the same thing oh yeah sure ai data centers going up everywhere

02:09:16.740 So in the United States,
02:09:18.840 Scott Besant is the Secretary of the Treasury.
02:09:22.020 And he was asked today,
02:09:24.680 Mr. Secretary,
02:09:27.020 people are very concerned about digital ID
02:09:30.380 and digital currency.
02:09:32.720 Are we going to do that here?
02:09:34.020 A lot of our viewers are increasingly worried that digital currency could one day be used to track people's spending or limit personal freedom.
02:09:42.560 What's your philosophy on that, and what safeguards is the Treasury and its administration putting in place to make sure new digital payment systems protect Americans' privacy and freedoms in the future?
02:09:52.840 So this administration has been very clear there will be no central bank digital currency, which I think would be the first step toward tracking.
02:10:01.980 So we have taken that off the table. We passed stable coin legislation with bipartisan and the Clarity Act is now up on the hill.
02:10:09.860 I think it has bipartisan support. And the most important thing we can do is to make digital assets come into the United States,
02:10:19.260 make the U.S. the home, our regulation, our best practices, what will ensure good standards for these.
02:10:27.420 When you look at digital assets, all the nonsense that happens, all the things you read about, that's because it's the wild, wild west offshore.
02:10:35.040 So we got to bring it on shore.
02:10:36.400 So I would encourage the House and the Senate to get clarity done.
02:10:41.420 Public private partnerships.
02:10:47.420 Remember.
02:10:49.340 So if the American government says we're not doing that, watch out for Apple.
02:10:55.040 Watch out for Google.
02:10:56.120 watch out for the big techs who are going to be doing it for you the apple wallet the google
02:11:02.020 wallet you start paying like that and they team up with the banks and the credit card companies
02:11:09.740 and next thing you know you've got a digital id it's not a government issued digital id at least
02:11:15.460 not yet but then maybe in two or three years time they say you know what we're partnering with the
02:11:20.360 government for your safety and we've got all of this information this digital information on you
02:11:25.860 anyway. We're just going to team up with the government, put it all together, and really make
02:11:30.040 things safe out there. Boom! It's over. No digital ID ever from anybody. Never accept it, because if
02:11:37.720 you do, they're going to have everything. Everything. That's it for tonight, you guys. I love you all. I
02:11:44.880 appreciate you all. I thank you for your support. You have a great sleep tonight. Have a great day
02:11:50.260 tomorrow at All Access Nighthawks. I will catch you again tomorrow night at eight o'clock central
02:11:55.460 for another one.
02:11:57.920 Bye for now.
02:12:25.460 We'll be right back.
