00:13:07.960And my wife and friends all call me Brent, and somebody calls me Richard, which my wife often does, that's when I'm in trouble.
00:13:16.660But anyway, so I was raised in a union household.
00:13:22.660My dad was a teamster, and I always believed in unions because if you go back to how they started, they started at a time when they were needed.
00:13:29.880That's how we got the eight-hour workday, the five-day work week, got the children out of the mines, that sort of thing, right?
00:13:37.180and so I always was a firm believer in that but I was always also a classic liberal who did a lot0.74
00:13:42.660of reading and believed in freedom of speech and freedom of association I was an anti-war activist
00:13:47.860and a civil rights activist all my life I marched against the Iraq war and even gave a speech out
00:13:52.180in front of two MLA and MP's office here in Saskatoon when the Iraq war happened saying that
00:13:57.160how working the working class has to be against this war because this war is being you know like
00:14:02.860all wall wars are banker's wars right stuff to make money military industrial complex blah blah
00:14:07.620blah so anyway i was a firm believer in that and uh at the time that covid happened although i had
00:14:13.780been a truck driver most of my life i'd become a caretaker in the elementary school system here
00:14:17.900in saskatoon and i was working at a school and i saw what they were doing to the kids during this
00:14:23.060thing they were destroying them they were they were they were making them behave like robots
00:14:28.660with the masks on they took away their music programs and their sports programs and even by
00:14:33.200then in march of april of 2020 we knew that kids were the least susceptible to this virus even then
00:14:39.600we knew but they were going overboard and it was all to save granny well we're in we're we're in
00:14:45.180society in the past have you sacrificed the children to save the grandparents and if you
00:14:49.520talk to any grandparent they'd say this is wrong and and you know what they're doing to us in the1.00
00:14:54.560old folks homes is wrong and what they're doing to the kids in the elementary school is wrong so1.00
00:14:57.960I firmly believe that and in July of 2020 I started protesting with a group of people here0.87
00:15:03.300in Saskatoon nothing but a bullhorn and me screaming to people driving by with my bullhorn
00:15:09.640your immune system is not a conspiracy theory epidemiology 101 right we can beat this we've
00:15:15.320had pandemics in the past the Hong Kong flu in 1969 killed a million people but Woodstock still
00:15:20.160happened and so anyway I ran into Mark Friesen out there and he heard me speaking to pastors
00:15:26.240by he's arguing with the crowd and he came up and he said i i hear what you're saying that's
00:15:30.420fantastic but i also he says and we introduce each other and he turns out he's a right winger
00:15:35.260and i'm a left winger but there we were in the same common cause and i realized that labels are
00:15:41.320no longer sufficient there is something deeper going on this is not right versus left anymore
00:15:46.720this is good versus evil and even though me and mark have some disagreements on the role of
00:15:51.720government we also realize that you need a balance you need free market enterprise for incentives and
00:15:57.760to get people to take care of themselves and for social responsibility you need to first worry
00:16:04.780about individual responsibility on the other hand you have this foreign entity the world or health
00:16:10.300organization the world economic forum the un agenda 2030 21 infiltrating our civic politics
00:16:17.500and funding people to do crazy things like advocate for trans rights when nobody it was0.72
00:16:25.060the craziest thing our very first rally we had in saskatoon there was a girl a university student
00:16:30.140came out wearing a mask with trans rights our human rights on it and that had nothing to do
00:16:35.360with what we were talking about of course we've had trans people all throughout history if you
00:16:40.640go back to the greek times there was trans people right um it wasn't the biggest deal in the world1.00
00:16:47.100when we had much other things to talk about and I realized that this is a way of distracting people1.00
00:16:51.140the divide and conquer method right they get a hold of our young people they indoctrinate into
00:16:54.840these crazy beliefs and they get them fighting against the parents the Maoist you know example
00:17:00.440you separate the parents from the children then you can exploit it and I so I saw this and I
00:17:06.280recognize that Mark Friesen saw this so even though I'm coming from the left labor side he's
00:17:10.780coming from the right entrepreneurship side,
00:17:15.660we were talking about the same things and understanding the same things.
00:17:38.420and then we had the h1n1 and then the zika virus and every time they talked about taking more
00:17:43.420taking more and more control of our local health through um top-down means so we got here in0.69
00:17:50.540saskatchewan the guy who was our public health minister was a guy named sadiq shahab who is from
00:17:54.880pakistan he was a plastic surgeon in pakistan how did he become our health minister here in
00:18:00.100saskatchewan i mean our health top doctor when he's not even a real doctor and he's implementing
00:18:06.860to be fair he is a real doctor he's just not an epidemiologist and he's certainly not probably
00:18:12.720very well versed in communicable disease but he's a doctor let's to be fair i mean like in order to
00:18:19.200do surgery on somebody you have to have at least that license yeah but anyway i don't want to get
00:18:26.040you sued either right oh yeah yeah anyway so um and then you look at theresa tam where she come
00:18:31.680from the world health organization is where she was coming where she came from let me ask you a
00:18:35.840question let me ask you a question about theresa tam because this has gone unexplored since derek
00:18:40.300sloan brought it up a few years ago do you believe that she is a a plant that she's a world health
00:18:49.120organization that she's a world economic forum operative oh absolutely i mean that's her it's a0.55
00:18:54.940it's in her history too because she worked for the world health organization and she was called the
00:18:59.780she was called the queen of vaccines while she was working for the world health organization
00:19:05.160and when she left the world health organization to somehow magically just be given the top doctor
00:19:10.400spot in canada to be our top public health official everything that she's done at the
00:19:14.820world health organization is under a gag order she wrote a non-disclosure agreement of what
00:19:18.740she was doing at the world health organization well how can that be how can she be considered
00:19:22.640working in canada's best interest so right from there and and i don't want to get into the
00:19:28.280the discussion about whether she's actually born a man that's always fun to talk about but who
00:19:33.980cares the point is she is she is taking orders from uh people in a foreign entity with a different
00:19:42.060agenda than what's best for Canadians yeah so let me ask you this uh when you were a leftist and
00:19:48.500I'm going to probably say that you still are one in terms of philosophy I'm not talking about
00:19:53.720political allegiance here I'm not talking about any of that because uh I don't think this is
00:19:59.180applicable to politics anymore as as you pointed out i think this is good versus evil common sense
00:20:05.520versus crazy right and whichever party represents the most that first of all that has a chance to
00:20:11.480at least win that represents the most common sense elements from the way i think i'm going to vote for
00:20:18.500i don't think it really matters at this point we're not going to get out of this politically
00:20:22.260there has to be something else but well okay go ahead okay what's interesting is i was a lifelong
00:20:31.560ndp-er and then when the cova things started happening i i was protesting and eventually got0.52
00:20:36.740fired for it my union threw me under the bus they were all ndp-ers and when i talked about this being0.96
00:20:42.620a political thing they said oh it's not political because we're with the ndp because scott moe of0.98
00:20:48.020course with the sass party which is the conservatives here so she figured but she
00:20:51.860didn't understand what i was talking about this it's a top-down political um uh agenda that
00:20:58.800embraces all the top political parties in our country look what doug ford was following world
00:21:04.100health organization rules remember that thing he said that you don't go against these things you
00:21:08.060might as well throw a rope over a bridge and hang yourself was he meaning that metaphorically or
00:21:12.940literally like how deep do the are the hooks into these people they have in power because uh i can
00:21:19.060tell you right now that one of scottmo's actions proved that this was all political because when
00:21:24.660the that's when the freedom convoy happened and finally people felt brave enough to get off the
00:21:29.460couch and start screaming about it he reversed all the mandates and restrictions here in saskatchewan
00:21:34.780like that he didn't go and ask dr shahab or the health minister mary merriman whether it was okay
00:21:40.740to do it he just did it with a stroke of a pen which proved it was all political to start with
00:21:45.640because we went from mandates and restrictions of only five people in the park to everything's
00:21:51.220open again sorry guys oops right and we had a big huge convoy down to regina and i spoke in front of
00:21:57.140the saskatchewan legislature that thanking him and i should never i should have i should have
00:22:02.700qualified it at the time i did the reason i went down there was because uh that was when mark was
00:22:06.860in the hospital just recovered from the hospital he was back home but he couldn't come with us and
00:22:11.320he missed the Canadian Freedom Convoy and he was so mad that he didn't get to go but I brought I
00:22:17.480I went down there and spoke and I made sure that he spoke to the crowd over the phone because the
00:22:21.500Grizzly Patriots loved by the people here in Saskatchewan and uh that's the reason I did it
00:22:26.480and I thanked Scott Moe the time but ever since then Scott Moe has not had our backs as far as
00:22:30.880the courts go because we've been convicted of all our COVID tickets and everything they're still
00:22:34.640under appeal it's gone to saskatchewan supreme court they've convicted us all i got eight tickets
00:22:39.240mark got 10 a lot of normal regular good people had their faces put in the newspaper and and
00:22:45.200called and having public squealing on them because they went to rallies without the approval but so
00:22:51.940anyway the point is it was all political written off of the stroke of a pen and that's uh that's
00:23:00.040what people have to realize i mean there this is always right now what we're facing uh the ndp
00:23:07.220the peak the the the liberals and the conservatives all are associated with the agenda if you look
00:23:13.880into the conservative leadership the people who are in power of the conservative party they're
00:23:18.120very they're like liberal light they never go too far you ever notice unless it's unless their
00:23:23.060approval rating says it's okay it's like they well no no wait wait wait wait since pauliev took over
00:23:27.960I do have to disagree with you on that. Having said that, they have not backpedaled at all
00:23:33.560from their position on the vaccines. You don't hear that very often from very many members of
00:23:39.460that party. I think that you have to take this, as we pointed out earlier, we have to take this
00:23:44.560on a person-by-person-by-person basis through every single party. I think that there's a lot
00:23:50.860of liberal MPs who do not believe with this, are not down with this agenda. They're just shutting
00:23:57.180up and taking the money and hoping to get reelected. Yeah, I believe the same goes with
00:24:01.920the NDP, even though there's 24 NDP MPs. I think that there's a few of them who don't believe this
00:24:08.660nonsense and they're just going along with it. And I believe that there are more conservative MPs
00:24:14.820who really don't believe this stuff. I mean, you've seen the stuff Leslyn Lewis has come out
00:24:19.820with and there's a bunch of the other ones. Leslyn Lewis and definitely a few other of the CPC
00:24:26.320mps have been stepping up and fighting back against this and notably danielle smith as well
00:24:31.780in alberta probably and i wish she would be more bold and vocal about the things that she's hoping
00:24:38.060to accomplish and uh she can do this because she wasn't in power during the during the uh
00:24:44.100covet restrictions right so she can go ahead and look back and say hey you know what i wasn't doing0.71
00:24:50.040this to you it was them yeah same party different guy though wasn't me so she can legitimately say
00:24:55.840that well she wasn't even with she was uh working as a journalist when all that started so she was
00:25:00.700right she came in from the outside and had a great hope in her but uh and a lot of like even mark
00:25:05.980is mark's a little upset with her other people in the movement are a little upset with her that
00:25:10.640she hasn't gone far enough but maybe she can only go so far i mean you're the you're the premier of
00:25:16.500the province you have to do certain things you might not want to do like stand for a picture
00:25:20.800with christie freeland because you know she's visiting you got to do it you do but the thing
00:25:27.200about danielle smith she's got three years left that's right as as the premier she can do whatever
00:25:32.520she wants and three years is a lot of time to change minds especially if you run a public
00:25:37.620relations program like they uh jammed down our throats during the covet years and you know you
00:25:42.700got me thinking as we talk about all of these premiers what the hell ever happened to brian
00:25:47.100pallister in manitoba i don't know it's like he it's like the the one b the one before uh
00:25:54.060scott moe here in saskatoon too in saskatchewan too i forget his name now brad wall brad wall
00:25:59.280and pallister were were really really good um conservative leaders with common sense policies
00:26:06.860that just before all this happened they kind of took they kind of said well i'm done and i'll just
00:26:11.620get out of here and it's like they knew it was coming they didn't want to get caught up in it
00:26:15.300But Pallister was the premier. Pallister was the premier in power when all of this happened. And then he announced during his term, I mean, he had just been elected again, I think a year and a half before, that he was stepping down. And he said previously he had no intention of stepping down. He was going to fulfill that final term and then step down.
