00:02:00.000welcome to the shadow davis show folks you guys it's uh what is it thursday may the 27th 2027
00:02:10.940and uh there's tamara there's our girl hi how you doing i'm doing great shadow it's so good
00:02:17.140to see you again it's nice to see you too it's been a long time since the last time we saw each
00:02:21.920other was at the ostrich farm last year yes you guys played a set or two i think and then before
00:02:29.260that you were here on your way to ottawa driving from alberta to ottawa for the court dates and
00:02:35.300yes then you got your then you got your sentence and people were upset and frustrated but you know
00:02:42.440what i want to go back and i want to ask you i mean we got all kinds of things we can talk about
00:02:46.800tonight you and i but i i want to ask you in that moment because this is something i've never asked
00:02:53.340you before and all the time in the moment and i'm going to play the moment right here before i put
00:02:58.040well, I'll put your give, send, go up right now. There it is. This is the give, send, go created
00:03:04.480by Tamera, you guys to fight, to sue. And you've got a long list here. I guess it would be easier
00:03:11.640to mention the people you're not suing, but we'll get to the, my stand against malicious prosecution
00:03:18.620in a second, because people, you know, those who haven't seen this yet, they're going to need to
00:03:23.040know what this is all about and you're already at 75 154 dollars of 100 000 and i believe that's
00:03:30.740only just to start with right because if this is a successful lawsuit you're going to need more
00:03:37.500and it's going to stretch over a period of time these two photos that are up here on your give
00:03:43.040send go this one here was with you incarcerated the one wearing the mask am i right yeah that's
00:03:48.700a court sketch actually uh that's a court sketch from uh no that's not even a real one the one
00:03:54.520where i'm sitting there with the mask on that was a court sketch for one of my actually my hearings
00:03:58.920for the bail or for the breach the alleged breach that i was in there for oh right when they came
00:04:05.320all the way from ottawa the ottawa police came all the way from ottawa to medicine hat to get you
00:04:10.900or yeah and then drag you back on the plane right yeah but this other you know i gotta say just i
00:04:18.380I just I've got to say that I'm so I'm so thrilled that that I love Canadian oil and gas hoodie is going to be in court sketchbooks for all time.
00:04:30.080This other picture, this one of you being arrested.
00:05:15.140i i have to compliment you on your calmness in that situation you were being cut had you ever
00:05:22.640had an interaction like that with police before no i've never been arrested before never so they
00:05:30.300walk up to you in the street and you're walking with danny bulford and and was it barber uh no
00:05:36.040tom already in jail he had already been arrested so i was with um danny bulford uh one of the road
00:05:44.020captain sean tyson and johnny the fuel guy johnny scooby scooby and so they didn't go for any of
00:05:51.440the others in that moment they just came for you and i remember watching that live i was watching
00:05:56.740that live i think there was i'm not exactly sure whose feed that is that we just watched because
00:06:01.940there were so many people with so many devices down there but that was johnny that was johnny
00:06:08.360yeah it was Joni's footage yep and I'm yeah I'm watching that tomorrow and I'm like whoa
00:06:13.880and there's like the comments were going crazy you were calm it was such a surreal moment and
00:06:20.260that was the beginning for you was it not well the beginning of the next chapter for sure the
00:06:27.600beginning of a chapter of lawfare that I never could have foreseen now we were we were anticipating
00:06:33.980that we could be arrested and of course Chris Barber had already been arrested um but we'd
00:06:39.700been we'd had meetings about this with with everyone too and are the law enforcement former
00:06:44.000law enforcement people that were with us there in Ottawa you know explain the process um you know
00:06:49.420you're gonna you'll be arrested don't resist you know give them your name and um you know you'll
00:06:54.540sign a recog and be out you know in a few hours you know that's actually how it works you saw you
00:07:01.880just go in and you sign a promise to appear or a recognizance and um and off you go because it
00:07:07.160was mischief it was as a recog i like what you're using the terminology now because you've been
00:07:12.220immersed in it for so long i'm going recog what the hell is a recog a recognizance yes um uh where
00:07:20.120was i with that anyways uh you were talking about signing something and they let you go but in this
00:07:25.320case that wasn't yes that's right and then in my case obviously that didn't happen i ended up
00:07:30.620spending 18 days in jail that time yeah so so this is the beginnings of the malicious
00:07:36.060you can't really say prosecution at that point because you weren't being prosecuted yet but
00:07:42.920to me like that moment was the beginning for you yes and probably for for many others as well
00:07:49.620because there were a lot of people arrested i'm not as high profile as you mentioned chris was
00:07:54.160already arrested and you've been fighting it ever since now you're paying this ridiculous price
00:08:00.060you're under house arrest this has been going on how long has this been now because i my timeline
00:08:05.540is all screwed up of course so how could it not be because it's been forever um this is going on
00:08:11.060four and a half years since the freedom convoy and since my arrest in ottawa so four and a half
00:08:17.460years later we're stealing still dealing with mischief which is actually unheard of anywhere
00:08:22.900a mischief is a is a summary offense a misdemeanor they would call it in the united states
00:08:28.300it's not a it's not a crime of moral turpitude so that means even with a even with this on my
00:08:34.860criminal record I'll still be able to cross the border because it's really it's not a big deal
00:08:38.720it's like spray painting your neighbor's fence basically or a public fence so I never could
00:08:45.220have anticipated in that moment that you know they were going to put me in solitary confinement
00:08:51.840that i was going to be repeatedly strip searched that i was going to um well when i when they did
00:08:58.100my intake that night i actually had one moment where i i felt afraid and that was when the nurses
00:09:03.840came during the intake and asked if i was vaccinated and of course i said no and i thought
00:09:11.260they were going to force vaccinate me because here i am in a government-run facility um you know all
00:09:16.300of that and i and i actually had a moment where i thought they're gonna they're gonna make me get
00:09:19.760vaccinated and then the nurse said do you want to be and I said no and then they asked if I wanted
00:09:26.880to take a test and I said no thank you I'm not sick and the girl beside me said I thought you
00:09:30.940might say that and she had kind of a little smile on her face it's unbelievable to me that
00:09:37.860could they have done that would that have been something legal have you looked into that at all
00:09:42.760I haven't I don't know if they could do that but I mean they did a lot of things in my opinion
00:09:47.680during those those times uh and the previous two years that should be considered illegal for sure
00:09:53.200yeah well that's what i'm saying right like so i mean they didn't care whether anything was legal
00:09:57.600or not back and they just did it and thought well we'll just pay the piper later and of course they
00:10:02.160never have to pay any pipers right exactly yeah and that's the whole thing the onus is always on
00:10:08.080us to go back on them which leads me to uh i guess i could call it your current project
00:10:14.160you know what before we get to that because i want to get to that later on and by the way you
00:10:21.680guys give send go.com and then it's my stand against malicious prosecution we'll put that
00:10:26.580up in all the comment sections of all the platforms that we're on tonight so you guys can go ahead and
00:10:30.660make a contribution to help tamara get this thing going but uh going back you know i said to you0.99
00:10:38.200last week tamara aren't you sick of all the court stuff i mean you've been involved in the courts
00:10:43.400in one way or another off and on for the last four and a half years and when you weren't in
00:10:48.660court you were at some hearing you know you went to ottawa specific specifically to go to the uh
00:10:55.400the the commission on the emergencies act i mean haven't you had enough of this stuff don't you
00:11:01.920want to go back to a semi-charmed kind of life at some point well i mean ideally obviously that
00:11:09.780would be great but uh the reality of my situation is that with all the lawsuits um and right
00:11:17.080everything you know i'm really looking at spending the majority of the rest of my life
00:11:21.860in in a courtroom in some fashion when you think about i'm 53 years old i'll be 54 this this fall
00:11:28.540and um you know these things take a lot of time a lot a lot of time and so you know chris and i
00:11:34.800have both kind of resigned ourselves to the fact that that we will be in courtrooms for years and
00:11:39.020years to come at least for the next decade at a bare minimum this whole uh zexy lee thing this
00:11:45.720whole lawsuit i thought that was going to be thrown out because paul champ made a mistake
00:11:49.560i think it probably will be at some point i mean obviously they're going to fight it and and i
00:11:55.340guess the thing the troubling thing about this shadow is that we're not dealing with a we're
00:12:01.940dealing with a justice system that is not um unbiased uh we know that there's a lot of judges
00:12:09.120in the east specifically in ottawa and toronto that really despise anything to do with the freedom
00:12:15.140convoy um but because of the way that that broke down it was a secret agreement uh that was signed
00:12:20.800between paul champs uh his plaintiffs and one of the defendants um in order to have him removed
00:12:26.960from the lawsuit now typically speaking the precedent for this is that you know as soon as
00:12:31.720you sign a settlement agreement like that you would have to disclose it immediately to all
00:12:36.280parties because if we didn't know this person could have been sitting in on our meetings and
00:12:40.720taking intel back to the other team and all of that sort of stuff so I think there's a really
00:12:46.460good chance that it's going to get knocked out and honestly that that lawsuit has never caused
00:12:51.260me a minute of stress I just thought from the day that we found out about it on the streets of
00:12:56.580ottawa that it was just a bunch of nonsense and i'll tell you why because it was the we had 10
00:13:02.500million dollars in donations in the bank all of a sudden we're getting faced with a 10 million
00:13:06.860dollar lawsuit okay well now it's 290 million and like in there's no realm of possibility like come
00:13:15.140at me for 290 million like i don't i have nothing i have nothing that these people can take from me
00:13:20.820So, you know, I think it's all nonsense. And I think $290 million for nuisance is a bit over the top. So I think he got a bit too greedy. Yeah. And don't forget, he still has a whole donor class that he's trying to have certified.
00:13:35.920So in this particular case, Paul Champ is trying to have a donor class added to the
00:13:41.700bank account or to the lawsuit so that he can go after the donors too.
00:13:45.940So regardless of what you think about the Freedom Convoy, imagine the precedent that
00:13:51.000that's going to set going forward for anything, any type of crowdfunding, anything that you
00:13:55.340donate to, basically saying that if you donated $50 to the convoy, then you contributed to
00:14:01.740the nuisance and therefore you're liable.
00:14:03.360so that sets a very dangerous precedent for people going forward that want to donate their
00:14:08.680own money to causes that they wish to support freedom convoy was never found to be illegal
00:14:13.700though i mean this is the whole thing that people seem to forget i want to look at your
00:14:19.180the give send go here and you use give send go and you give the reason why at the bottom of this
00:14:25.000which i thought was absolutely beautiful oh and by the way i haven't said yet happy anniversary
00:14:29.740oh thank you thank you and happy birthday to your uh is it your grandson or your granddaughter
00:14:35.820today for sierra yeah my middle daughter's seat today and yesterday was my oldest daughter so
00:14:41.740yeah it's birthday season here all right here it is my stand against malicious prosecutions by
00:14:47.440tamara leach over four years have passed since my participation in the most peaceful and polite
00:14:52.360protest of all time the canadian freedom convoy it's been over four years since chris barber and
00:14:58.320i were arrested on the streets of ottawa mere days following the unconstitutional yep and
00:15:03.840unlawful invocation of the emergencies act by the liberal government the invocation saw bank
00:15:08.360accounts frozen insurance policies suspended the forceful violent removal of peaceful canadians
00:15:13.760and truckers and supporters arrested for our part chris and i endured the longest mischief trial in
00:15:20.400the history of the commonwealth the crown prosecutor and i love one of the people you're
00:15:25.880suing here, by the way. We're going to get to that. I think it's hilarious. The Crown prosecutor
00:15:30.660made repeated attempts to charge me with a breach of conditions violation and remanded to custody
00:15:36.400until trial. And on one occasion, he was successful. Chris and I convicted in April of 2025 of mischief
00:15:44.300and sentenced October 7th, 2025 to 18 months of house arrest. Granted some time served, my sentence
00:15:50.500will conclude January 21st of next year.
00:16:16.080Like, how is it for you in that regard?
00:16:18.500uh it was difficult and it just so happens that i have a lot of lawyers in my life now that know
00:16:24.800other lawyers otherwise i don't know um this gentleman was very highly recommended to me
00:16:30.600and so we had a meeting of course and it went really well however even his firm it
00:16:36.420oh no she's frozen up take my case oh no hang on hang on you froze up for a second like five
00:16:44.000seconds ago so go back five seconds and start from there sorry sorry I was I was just saying
00:16:49.020I met uh I met with the lawyer and the team and we we it was it was going to work out great but
00:16:55.160it still took his firm three weeks to give an answer as to whether or not they would let him
00:16:59.720take my case their concerns were what that they would get bad press uh the no the political nature
00:17:08.480of this case which is really a terrible thing to even say but it's true I mean they were they were
00:17:13.240I actually, in the retainer letter that I signed, had to agree that if they needed to hire a PR person to manage any backlash, that I would be responsible for those costs.
00:28:54.540Well, part of part of the process will be disclosure. So we will be seeking disclosure to find out who made these decisions and the timeline that they were made in, obviously, and the conversations that were happening behind the scenes. Remember, a Canada wide arrest warrant was issued for my arrest over a potential breach of a mischief. There's more than one person that makes that decision.
00:29:18.960so and and these are now when we talk about crown prosecutors a lot of people assume that it's
00:29:25.700federal right that you guys were in federal court you were in ontario court which is different
00:29:29.860it's not federal so um you know ontario court is there ever any chance that you could have gone to
00:29:42.060the the supreme court of canada to continue fighting this before we talk about your lawsuit
00:29:46.360here i mean this this particular sentence that you're serving right now did you feel like maybe
00:29:53.180we can go and challenge this this ruling well we did i'm appealing my conviction uh chris is
00:29:59.460appealing i believe his conviction also and the crown prosecutors are appealing both our
00:30:04.740our acquittals because we were acquitted on the intimidation charges um and they're also
00:30:10.120appealing our sentence because they want chris in jail for eight years and me in jail for seven
00:30:15.200years and as a matter of fact i believe pat just had his hearing a couple weeks ago and they want
00:30:19.760him in jail for five years so they still want this so that proves the malicious intent right there
00:30:27.360obviously if it's the same people making these decisions too that's the other thing the chain
00:30:32.400needs to be unbroken from then to now right so i i wonder i mean you've probably done some
00:30:38.180investigation on this would it be uh cabinet ministers ontario cabinet ministers making
00:30:44.440these decisions in consultation with federal cabinet ministers? Would it be just through the
00:30:51.220Department of Justice? I mean, how do you even begin to search for who was making
00:30:56.480the final call on all of these things? Well, that's what we're going to find out. And that's
00:31:01.660what we're going to find out through disclosure. And that's also why the Attorney General of Ontario
00:31:06.160is included in this case. And without a doubt, they were getting pressured from the Canadian
00:31:11.740government whether that was um you know members of parliament or whether that was the department
00:31:17.480of justice itself i would assume it had something to do with the attorney general of canada also
00:31:21.940who was david labetti at that time don't forget right um so i would be surprised if there wasn't
00:31:28.780some pressure coming down from the federal government on this um there was definitely
00:31:32.740pressure coming from the attorney general's office of ontario don't forget they're the
00:31:36.840ones that seized all the donations that are still sitting in an escrow account and they are going
00:31:41.660to probably take that money so yeah yeah basically what we found out um is that the deal is if paul
00:31:55.060champ wins his civil suit then he'll probably get that money but if he doesn't win that then it's
00:32:00.100going to go to the attorney general of ontario basically all they needed to get their hands on
00:32:05.420it the attorney general was one conviction which they got you know months before even christen0.98
00:32:11.640And I the first conviction was probably probably enough to like over a stupid over a stupid conviction like the one you got, like the mischief that makes absolutely zero sense to me that they could take 10 million dollars in donations.0.95
00:32:26.080But then again, I mean, what if it was returned, let's just say to the organizers, what could you possibly do with that money?0.97
00:32:33.160Would you return it to the people or would you charity or like what?
00:32:37.420Pray to God that I never see it, honestly. I can't even imagine. Now, I have all the registration forms. I still have all the registration forms that we collected in Ottawa, just in case, because it was donated money for a specific purpose.
00:32:52.660So you can't, you know, I would have to talk to Gibson Go if that ever happened to find out, you know, if we could just donate it to a veterans organization or something like that, because, I mean, it'll have been years and years.
00:33:05.800So but I honestly don't think we'll ever see it.
00:33:08.500And I hope I never have to touch it, honestly.
00:33:12.060I can't even imagine because I know that people have been screaming about it for the last few years.
00:33:16.260And there was allegations that you would somehow you you and Chris had somehow absconded with this money.
00:33:22.000but no it's been in that escrow account ever since yeah yes yeah 3.4 million of the donations
00:33:28.380for our campaign are in there um there's bitcoin in there i believe too they seized and then also
00:33:34.280the adopt the trucker money i think that was four or five hundred thousand dollars so there was about
00:33:38.300just over five million all told um that they seized as you remember gofundme ended up refunding all
00:33:45.060of those donations the 10 million and then give send go refunded all of the donations except the
00:33:50.760ones that were coming through the payment processor stripe right right so you know to me it's like
00:33:56.420how is this not stealing like what the government it's completely stealing right i mean like they're
00:34:01.920just taking people's money it's outrageous anyway let's continue on with your your give send go here
00:34:08.620i was facing a non-violent mischief charge mischief is a summary offense in canada generally dealt
00:34:14.440with through fines or probation, especially for a first time offender in a move reserved. I love
00:34:20.840this line in a move reserved for violent murderers, sexual offenders and drug traffickers.
00:34:26.940The Ottawa Crown prosecutor issued a Canada wide warrant for my arrest, the first of its kind for
00:34:32.500allegations of breach of conditions for a mischief charge. I was taken into custody. Now, this is
00:34:38.700where you spent it was it 48 days this time uh 30 days in jail yeah right yeah there was the
00:34:44.900combined i'm combining them yeah no you were taken into custody flown back to ottawa in leg shackles
00:34:51.200you were in leg shackles on the plane yes i was actually they wheeled me in the cop needed to do
00:34:59.020that to you right five feet tall but the funniest part shadow is that they get me to the airport
00:35:33.800to preserve my dignity thank you for thinking about me sir preserve your dignity while wearing
00:35:41.520leg shackles that's ridiculous i mean that's what's it a two and a half three hour flight
00:35:47.860calgary to ottawa three hours yeah three three and a half hours yep in leg shackles were you
00:35:54.020sitting next like did you have any interaction with these cops on the aircraft were they sitting
00:35:58.100like were you in the middle of the three seats that one on either side did you talk sports like
00:36:03.040what were you guys talking about well i mean it's the typical good cop bad cop scenario
00:36:08.800detective benson's really big and burly and not very talkative and not very friendly which is
00:36:13.500fine and i didn't really talk to him anyways because i don't really care much for that man
00:36:16.760but sergeant hassan was actually a lovely lovely man um now i'm not stupid i used to work for a
00:36:22.160police service remember so i mean i understand what's going on i know that you know what we
00:36:25.900can and can't talk about or whatever and um but sergeant hassan you know was actually fairly
00:36:31.040cheerful and he let me have coffee which i was so grateful for because i knew that i wasn't going to
00:36:35.680have any real coffee for a very very long time um but yeah it was uh yeah they were sitting next to
00:36:42.160me and they yeah had leg shackles on the entire time denied bail by a justice of the peace
00:36:51.260piece held in remand for 30 days dark days pretty dark right unpleasant what's it like in there i've
00:37:04.540i have never been in a remand scenario not that i'm bragging about that because it's quite possible
00:37:11.220i may end up you know me i'm a there's lots of time there's lots of hope for you left
00:37:15.120just one i just want to measure up finally um 30 days in in a place like this combined with 18
00:37:26.500before like what is your day-to-day routine like like do they wake you up in the morning do you
00:37:31.800have to be up at a certain time is there a dress code is like behavioral things that you don't
00:37:36.900know about like do they give you a list of rules that you have to follow before your incarceration
00:37:42.800begins what's it like well the second time that i was in jail i still can't believe i have to say
00:37:48.440that actually but the second time i went i was very grateful for the first time that i went because i
00:37:53.340had a bit of an idea of how this this stuff goes you don't get a handbook when you go to jail
00:37:58.920and so you know i i had to sort of learn a lot of things as i went it is deeply unpleasant
00:38:05.820place to be that particular remand center is known throughout canada for having some pretty
00:38:12.820wild human rights violations which i can certainly attest to as i saw um i saw some things in there
00:38:19.640that were unpleasant and say what they are or no i uh well there's a methadone program there's a0.99
00:38:27.440methadone program so every day the girls would light up to go down and get their drugs from the
00:38:32.200government and there was occasions where it was late or i watched one girl out that didn't get
00:38:40.060hers one day and you know i give this girl credit because i mean i've never done meth i don't know
00:38:45.380but i i hear it's really terrible and the withdrawals are awful and she sat on the top
00:38:49.840of her bed and just did it took everything in her to not lose her mind because she didn't get her
00:38:54.200methadone um um you know there's just the searches they'll come into your dorm i mean i kept the
00:39:01.380diary the second time I was in jail, but I was very careful about what I wrote because they'll
00:39:05.160come into the dorms at any time, search all of your things under your mattresses, all of your
00:39:09.780belongings. And not only that, but the girls could do that too. So, and I tried the second time to
00:39:15.800not go to dorms. So the first time I was arrested, I was put in solitary confinement, went to cell
00:39:21.680block, then went to dorms. Then I went home. This time there was no solitary confinement. I went
00:39:26.920went straight to cell block um and i was in cells and then i moved to dorms so you got to remember1.00
00:39:32.060dorms is like being in a great big room with 12 to 14 women um but these women are like some of
00:39:39.780them violent offenders or some of the men for pretty hard stuff right yes i was put in cell1.00
00:39:45.400block with a haitian uh quebecer a french lady sorry she's from ottawa but she'd moved from0.53
00:39:53.260haiti to quebec and then to ottawa she was six months pregnant she was a drug addict she was a1.00
00:39:58.320schizophrenic um she made advances at me one day when we got back from court and the other girl
00:40:06.240that was in our cell hadn't come back yet into the into our cell let me explain this to you better
00:40:11.940yes um so i'm put in cells i get there i'm put in cells i think it was canada day i'm put in cells
00:40:19.380with this girl the next day they throw another girl into our cell because this this place is
00:40:24.120overcrowded so this third girl comes in and has a little mat on the floor with a blanket in a tiny
00:40:30.420little cell and so and she was also a schizophrenic and had some serious problems and one example i'll
00:40:38.240give you is that after you eat every meal 20 minutes later the guards come and you put your
00:40:42.260garbage out the door out the little window because if you keep it in there obviously you're going to0.97
00:40:46.380get bugs well she would never throw her garbage out because she thought she was getting energy0.94
00:40:50.920and messages from her garbage from her food garbage um so that got a little bit dicey because0.92
00:40:57.240we had to get it out of there but you know they would have epic meltdowns they would be screaming
00:41:02.320um and in this particular instance uh we had a court date so christy and i went to court
00:41:09.280and it's not a pleasant day when you go to court you go up you go early with everyone and you can
00:41:13.720sit there all day if your appearance is at three o'clock in the afternoon you're there at 7 30 in
00:41:17.940the morning and you sit in a bullpen or a cell all day no books nothing what's the bullpen like
00:41:25.040it's just a yeah it's just a great it's just a great big cell for like a lot of people
00:41:30.560um it's called the bullpen i don't know yeah look at all the terminology i'm picking up i mean if i
00:41:36.660go back a third time i've got this licked like for me a bullpen is like baseball right so yeah
00:41:42.140right of course you get jail bullpen anyway please so anyways we had court that day um i got i walked
00:41:48.540back into the cell they kept christy back for whatever reason and and every time we come back
00:41:52.640in i have to be strip searched i got to go through an x-ray machine they have to strip search me um
00:41:57.960like lift up your hair stick your tongue out lift up your breasts bend down and squat um with a mask
00:42:03.940on of course because uh you know that's how that goes that was the first time anyhow and then i1.00
00:42:09.020walk back into my cell and then she just started saying things to me like you know she was pregnant1.00
00:42:13.600and if the other cellmate doesn't come back she started alluding to things that she was going to
00:42:19.160do and it was just it was awful so thankfully to go to sleep at night well sometimes it was a bit
00:42:29.560dicey they were um very mentally unstable ladies um for sure and yeah it was it was dicey
00:42:38.820sometimes were you recognized in there i mean you weren't in isolation all the time as you pointed0.58
00:42:44.540out so you were in i guess a general population scenario um were you recognized or the freedom
00:42:53.160convoy did people know who you were or were you able to keep a lower profile well when i was in
00:42:59.180there the first time uh when i finally got into dorms it was funny because i was sitting on top
00:43:04.360of my bunk and i heard these girls talking about it and actually what they said what they were
00:43:08.200talking about the freedom convoy and i heard them say something about oh yeah and i heard her
00:43:12.760boyfriend flew out on a private jet and i started laughing because then i knew that they were
00:43:16.720talking about me um anyways they they did shortly figure out who i was and they were extremely
00:43:22.900supportive two of the girls that were in there were actually at the freedom convoy one of them
00:43:27.500was picked up on a warrant outside of a canadian tire because she'd stopped there to go buy jerry
00:43:32.080cans and supplies to take down to the to the truckers yeah right wow but i did have a lot
00:43:37.780of support from that from a lot of the staff there too which um which was pretty good you see i find
00:43:43.600that surprising because generally speaking there's a group think amongst whatever population of
00:43:50.100people are working in the same place right and if one person speaks out freedom convoy is just
00:43:55.020nothing but a bunch of hooligans and thugs from all across the country then you know and if that
00:43:59.580person happens to be recognized as a leadership symbol then they're all going to have to fall
00:44:04.320into line because they all want to be you know included in the in the group right so i'm happy
00:44:10.780to hear that you got support in there what about the second time though was it was it the same or
00:44:16.200different it was longer uh there was no solitary confinement that time which i was actually begging
00:44:23.160for like i was saying earlier when it was time for me to move to dorms i actually asked how i could
00:44:28.060to stay in my cell because i didn't want to go in there and be with you know it's not that i just0.61
00:44:31.960just 14 women in one room uh drug addicts prostitutes uh violent criminals repeat offenders
00:44:41.120um you know so were you ever faced in a situation where one of them threatened you over like even if0.74
00:44:49.040it was the smallest kind of a threat no nothing like that no if they never tried to take your
00:44:55.880I was pretty lucky that way. No, but I mean, the first time I was like literally bunking beside a lady that had stabbed her boyfriend to death. I mean, I'm like, what am I doing here? You know, so, you know, but you know, they have a lot of sad stories and they're just people. And there was, you know, there was times where it was really, you know, something to behold, but you know, they're just human beings and they're, they're not getting the resources and the help that they need.
00:45:22.840And some of the things, like I said, that really were the worst was when, in particular, one case, and this happened more than once, but there was a lady that comes in frequently and she's got mental health problems, lots of drug problems.
00:45:38.200And so they put her in the padded room next to our cell and she was yelling and screaming and kicking at the walls.
00:45:48.280And I just about started crying because the guards were taunting her.
00:45:52.840saying things like well you know we'll get you some if you stop this or you know you want to
00:45:58.460hit this you just have to stop yelling and i was just thinking like that is torture they were
00:46:03.460torturing this person um in my opinion that's mental torture you know um when you have someone
00:46:09.200that's that addicted to drugs and you are you know using something like that as a negotiating
00:46:14.100mechanism or they were yelling back at her through the door and making fun of her you know it was uh
00:46:20.660there's good people in there and there's bad people in there and I will tell you
00:46:24.520one thing that I learned about corrections is that two types of people get into it the ones
00:46:30.580that think that they're going to really make a difference to society and help people and ones
00:46:34.540that were picked on in high school right revenge of the nerds on steroids yes yeah I had Wycliffe
00:46:43.320on a couple of months ago and we were talking about the woke movement you know and yes that's
00:46:48.660what i said i said that this is just revenge of the nerds on steroids i want to go back to your
00:46:54.000well i mean it is right i mean that's what these people are all about you know they're not getting
00:46:58.660their way they're the victim class and and now they've finally got some power and they're going
00:47:02.740to use it they're going to put people like you and i uh on house arrest this lawsuit has my name on
00:47:10.160it you say here on the give send go but it's about so much more than me this is one thing i admire
00:47:15.800about you Tamara among the other you know everything is the fact that you've always
00:47:21.120maintained always maintained that it's not just about you you are defending Canadians like where
00:47:31.180does that come from inside of you and have you ever thought okay you know what I've done my bit
00:47:36.620somebody else can step up now well I'm in it now shadow oh I know you are and we're gonna keep
00:47:44.020But I mean, I just like to have those thoughts and I'll tell you why I ask, because, you know, you know, I'm not nowhere near as as well known as you are.
00:47:54.280Let's just say I've been doing this for a long time and some people know me and there's a lot of pressure.
00:47:58.540There is a lot of pressure to keep going all the time, you know, to find out what's going on and then to be able to relate it.
00:48:06.360You've lived this. I mean, this has been since 2022, four and a half years now.
00:48:11.820and you've given so much, I mean, and not just for you, like, like I've been saying, you know,
00:48:16.660you helped, uh, the ostrich farm last year, for example, we talked about earlier and you also
00:48:22.120helped, uh, Dan Hartman, you know, and you've helped so many people in so many parts of the
00:48:27.660country because of that heart of yours. And you must have times where you're just sitting there
00:48:34.360going, okay, you know what? I've, I've done everything I can do here aside from what you're
00:48:39.800doing now and that's why i was so surprised when i saw this um like do you hope and pray that more
00:48:47.240and more people start to realize and and start standing up and speaking up because i'll tell you
00:48:51.800it elates me when i see that oh definitely um and i think there's a lot of people that do want to
00:48:59.420shadow i don't think it's a fact that people aren't standing up it's that they don't know how
00:49:04.340they don't know what they can do anymore and that was really i was just in ottawa a couple weeks ago
00:49:08.800at a conservative networking convention and like the the air in my opinion has really come out of
00:49:14.520the conservative balloon it was not a great atmosphere i didn't feel whatsoever and even
00:49:19.540in talking to people on the plane or in the airport or at the convention itself you know
00:49:24.620we have a government that has a stolen majority and okay let me put it to you this way chris and
00:49:31.920i had a talk about this lawsuit and i said like it's really it's really surreal that i have to
00:49:39.160seek justice through the very institution that's perverting it is which is the justice system so i
00:49:46.500have to go into their system to try and fight for justice right and make sure that this doesn't ever
00:49:51.480happen to another canadian again and it's exactly the same thing i said to chris like what else am
00:49:56.440i going to do like am i going to organize a protest or am i going to call my mp or send him
00:50:01.220a letter like people are feeling once again that they um don't have any recourse to try and hold
00:50:08.680these politicians to account you know like Pierre Polyev's speech was was really uninspiring we know
00:50:15.220that Trudeau is bad we know that Carney's bad we know the liberals are bad and we know that the
00:50:19.220conservatives are going to fight fight fight but number one how are you going to fight what are
00:50:24.500you going to do they have a stolen majority so you can have all the committees and all the meetings
00:50:28.640and all the votes in the whole entire world that you want but what's your option um and what was
00:50:34.520my second point my second point is maybe people are just tired of fighting maybe we just want to
00:50:41.060live our lives and wish that stuff would stop and be rectified so that we didn't have to fight
00:50:46.520it takes a lot of energy to fight yeah you know so i mean i it's just there's people want
00:50:54.780accountability and i think that's one reason why people have supported this campaign so much because
00:50:59.380people are still feeling hopeless we have the emergencies act still being under uh appealed
00:51:05.200right so that's got kicked down the road again um and people were anxious they just want some
00:51:10.040justice they just want some accountability whether it's for the invocation of the emergencies act
00:51:15.120whether it's for a liberal government that's cozying up to communist china you know whether
00:51:20.560it's for what happened during the pandemic now any any sort of situation like the pandemic
00:51:26.720especially a global one following that there would normally be inquiries and you know um
00:51:34.260investigations because you would think they would really want to know hey guys like what did we do
00:51:39.040right what did we do wrong and what are we going to do better next time and they haven't even gotten
00:51:43.360that yet i they're not ever going to i mean there's there's no way because if there was an
00:51:49.240actual inquiry or investigation these people would all be found to be complicit i mean they're trying
00:51:56.180to get closer in the united states which i find amazing right like you know they found out now
00:52:02.500that well actually it was made in a lab and they did arrest one of fauci's associates or advisors
00:52:07.440somewhere down there down the line and they had a cia whistleblower in a senate committee a couple
00:52:13.900of weeks ago and you know so they're inching closer to maybe some half truths in the united
00:52:19.120states but here in canada somehow people are still in the dark you know i was talking about
00:52:24.360this on the show last night to mary you know there's there's people who still are going for
00:52:29.100their their booster shots who believe that mark carney came from the bank of england or the united
00:52:36.680nations or brookfield or wherever he was working uh the last job he was i think it was brookfield
00:52:41.860and the un as a matter of fact is their special climate envoy he came back to canada because he
00:52:48.560need he felt like he wanted to fix it so he gives up millions and millions of dollars leaves that
00:52:54.420on the table to go be the prime minister of canada for four hundred thousand dollars a year
00:52:58.620like right seriously yeah right exactly so getting back to this conservative convention
00:53:05.580you said the air wasn't great were people like depressed did they feel like oh no you can't
00:53:11.860they were really happy to be there um i didn't think that was my first time what other people
00:53:18.200told me is the attendance was way down um there were mps that came out of course but they didn't
00:53:23.840really stay that long like i just sort of thought you know there'd be quite a few more
00:53:27.620members conservative members of parliament sort of hanging around there it's a networking
00:53:31.180conference um there was you know very few vendors there um i mean the panels were great i i really
00:53:38.340like the panels um this danielle smith's speech was for me the highlight of the entire thing
00:53:44.200um you know pierre polyev came out and and he gave us just a typical a typical speech like fight
00:53:50.500fight fight um but you know it was it was just really i just thought the atmosphere was felt a
00:53:56.500little bit dejected now i guess last year's was pre-election because it's normally held in april
00:54:02.700so you know they said that's probably part of the reason why last year's was so successful too
00:54:07.300because they were getting ready for an election and there was lots of excitement but um all in
00:54:12.640all it was just a really uh it was quite it was a different atmosphere had they already had the
00:54:18.340floor crosses the liberals yes yeah yeah well you know that that's too i mean like when we see that
00:54:24.080happen you know it's it's such a kick in the gut right like you go wow man like five of our people
00:54:28.540left us is it because of poly ever what were they enticed with to go over to the liberals like
00:54:33.460people like maryland gladu you never would have thought that somebody like that would ever cross
00:54:38.480the floor how can they even look in the mirror right like can you imagine tomorrow morning
00:54:42.360waking up and going you want to know what i think that the freedom convoy was a complete scam and
00:54:49.160everybody there was a criminal like all of a sudden you've completely changed your world view
00:54:53.900from one night to the next morning i don't think so right so so how does that happen yet it did and
00:55:00.800I can totally understand the mood of every conservative-minded person in the country
00:55:05.320would have been in the toilet after something like that.
00:55:09.140So when you say people don't know how to fight,
00:55:11.920is it like they don't know what to do next?
01:47:37.200My stand against malicious prosecution.
01:47:41.100One more time, if you guys could go ahead and share that in comments on whatever platform you're watching on right now, that would be absolutely awesome.
01:48:17.920I don't think they were particularly pleased with the fact that I was being publicly vocal in my disagreement with the government on some of those issues.
01:48:28.360So I think it's, I respect the Prime Minister, I respect the team and cabinet and my colleagues.
01:48:38.180It's just time for me, I came into, and people come into politics for different reasons.
01:52:50.980Right now, under their current administration, they don't share information with Canadian alphabet agencies, if you will, because they don't trust them, because they believe they're all infiltrated by, you guessed it, China.
01:53:07.880wednesday's report by the montreal institute for global security comes a day before canada
01:53:16.080is set to welcome china's foreign minister to ottawa for the first time in a decade
01:53:21.140speaking alongside the report's authors on parliament hill former member of parliament
01:53:26.340john mckay urged foreign affairs minister anita anon to raise the issue of foreign
01:53:31.020interference with her counterpart wang yi during her visit and here he is saying it and i i want
01:53:37.520to take this opportunity as well to note that the Minister of Foreign Affairs is apparently
01:53:43.660for the first time in 10 years making a visit to Canada from China. As this is an opportunity
01:53:51.420for a reset of our relationships between Canada and China, I hope that both ministers will
01:54:00.560will take the opportunity to operationalize that reset so that this level of interference ceases.
01:54:13.560That both countries have an expectation that the other country will not involve itself
01:54:21.560in the items that have outlined very capably by Maria and Kyle in their report.
01:54:28.560So I'm rather hoping that in the event that there is a press conference
01:54:34.080that that question will be put to both ministers to A, see whether it's been discussed
01:54:41.220and B, to see whether there's been any commitments made on the issue of foreign interference
01:54:46.860by the Chinese government in the affairs of Canada.
01:54:52.120Well, John, I think that's a little bit naive.0.84
01:54:58.560And comical as well. I was talking about this on last night's show.
01:55:04.160We're going to ask you to not interfere in our society because it's not just elections.
01:55:11.380It's not just the federal government. If you understand how deep the Chinese infiltration is in Canada,
01:55:18.920you would understand that the justice system is compromised. Provincial governments are compromised.
01:55:23.540municipal governments are compromised bureaucracies are compromised police forces0.99
01:55:29.240are compromised obviously the court system is compromised by china and mark carney just goes0.99
01:55:37.200along with it do you think that donald trump is going to put up with china north on his doorstep0.90
01:55:44.160of course not especially especially well he's got the don row doctrine just cruising along0.72
02:04:03.100Tim Hortons, by the way, you guys know Dunkin' Donuts is coming back to Canada.
02:04:07.400I think it's already back in some areas.
02:04:09.980I could have sworn I saw Mario for the North or from the North.
02:04:12.400you know mario from instagram and and x he was holding the dunkin donuts today so i think that
02:04:19.300dunkin donuts is all man that was fast already opened in some southern ontario locations that
02:04:24.660fantastic and you know they say we're gonna be hiring canadian it's an american company where's
02:04:30.800all the elbows up people where's all the i can't have american company here do they understand that
02:04:37.680tim hortons is an american company was bought by american american company 12 or 13 years ago and
02:04:44.320they hire temporary foreign workers well now tim hortons has said look at this from left-wing
02:04:51.400corporate taxpayer funded cbc they've committed to hiring 10 000 local employees and scale back
02:04:58.440on temporary foreign workers move move comes as company announces 80 news to tim hortons 80 new
02:05:04.600stores nationwide ahead of American chain Dunkin returning to Canada. Isn't that fascinating?
02:05:11.620They're trying to head it off at the pass. So let me ask you a question. Would you be willing to
02:05:17.980forgive Tim Hortons for doing what they've done for the past few years and completely foregoing1.00
02:05:23.020Canadian teenagers and hiring temporary foreign workers who barely speak the language, who make0.97
02:05:30.580bad coffee, apparently, and bad pastries and give us bad service. Would you be willing to forgive1.00
02:05:37.700Tim Hortons for that? Because they say they're hiring 10,000 local employees. And by the way,
02:05:43.920they say local employees. These temporary foreign workers could be local, I suppose,
02:05:49.540for a while, temporarily. So why not hire them? They didn't say Canadians. They said local1.00
02:05:59.440employees, food for thought. If I ever do go out for coffee, it will be to Dunkin' Donuts,
02:06:07.540provided they keep their word as well and hire Canadian and only Canadian.1.00
02:06:15.060You guys know about Bill C-22. This is a bill that will give lawful access to the police,0.86
02:06:20.420not just to possibly your home, your car, but all of your electronics, everything you do online.
02:06:29.440Companies will be ordered to hold on to all metadata for 12 months and create back doors so the government can get in to look at your stuff if they suspect you of something.
02:06:42.620Executives from Apple and Google have urged the federal government to tighten rules in its proposed lawful access legislation to avoid creating vulnerabilities in their products, arguing so-called back doors into encrypted data systems could be exploited by cyber criminals.
02:06:58.400Oh, and by the way, this legislation also means that they can do all of this anonymously.
02:07:22.060Bill C-22 would lead to the creation of regulations requiring core telecommunications providers to create capabilities for law enforcement to access information and for the retention of user metadata for up to one year, like I just said.
02:07:37.000Ministerial orders could then be given to other providers without judicial oversight.
02:07:44.620And we had some Google and Apple executives in federal committees the last few days, and here's what they said.
02:07:50.820You said that you consider Bill C-22 more intrusive than American laws. Am I correct?
02:08:03.420Yes, ma'am. The unbounded, essentially, nature of the powers that are afforded to direct product changes by companies in secrecy and without judicial oversight in the case of the ministerial orders goes beyond any regime that I'm familiar with.
02:08:28.420Were you consulted before the bill was drafted?
02:08:37.740Have you already expressed your reservations to the government as part of the drafting
02:08:43.820We have provided a submission with some specific recommendations, but I will pass
02:08:50.360this to my colleague Jeanette on your broader question.
02:08:53.660So we have shared these concerns with the government. I don't believe we were in a consultation process prior to tabling, but we welcome the opportunity to engage with this committee to find workable solutions here that can support law enforcement in their legitimate need to conduct investigations, while also preserving user privacy and maintaining the security of our products and services.
02:09:22.060So thank you for the constructive engagement.
02:09:25.500Good afternoon, Mr. Chair, Vice Chairs, and members of the committee.
02:09:29.020My name is Eric Neunschvander, and I'm the Senior Director of User Privacy and Child Safety at Apple, where I've been a software engineer for 19 years.
02:09:35.700I worked as the first data analysis engineer on the first iPhone and founded Apple's privacy engineering team.
02:09:42.380Today, my job is to make sure that Apple's products and services keep our users' information safe.
02:09:47.600Thank you for the opportunity to speak with you today.
02:09:49.860As you know, this may be one of the last times we're permitted to discuss the consequences of this legislation publicly.
02:09:56.860That's because of the bill's secrecy provisions, which forbid companies like Apple from even discussing the orders we receive with our users or the public.
02:10:04.860So today, I want to be clear about how we approach privacy at Apple.
02:10:08.860And I want to be clear on why encryption is so important to defending the privacy and security of people in Canada and around the world.
02:10:19.860so from what we understand just before we went live for the show tonight the government has said
02:10:27.440okay uh there's a lot of pressure coming in so we're going to take this bill which is already
02:10:33.800in senate by the way no wait a minute that's not that's c9 sorry about that c22 still being
02:10:39.860bumped around in the house of commons we're going to take this bill and we're going to amend it
02:10:43.740we'll make some changes to it to make it more palatable maybe more acceptable because there's
02:10:48.700a lot of ambiguous language in there that the government is so famous for using. That doesn't
02:10:53.940necessarily say that they want a backdoor into somebody's personal information, but they create
02:11:01.420the conditions for the companies to make that door on their behalf. And if they suspect somebody of
02:11:08.620something, they just go to Apple or Google or whichever your internet service provider is,
02:11:13.240and they say, yeah, we want this guy's information, and they can go ahead and get it.
02:11:16.560there's also a lot of vpn services that are threatening to pull out of canada signal
02:11:21.980because their whole thing is about your personal security right that's how they've sold themselves
02:11:31.180to the public for the past five to ten years hey man you've got us you've got personal security
02:11:36.660so they're not really excited about creating government back doors into your personal
02:11:41.100information that the government wants. And that could be another factor why the liberals are
02:11:46.520saying, you know what, we got to pull back on this thing. We have got to pull back on this thing.
02:11:50.580Today marks five years since it was announced that they found the bodies of 215 children at
02:11:57.520a residential school in Kamloops. Of course, we know that's a lie. No bodies have ever been
02:12:02.780discovered there. All they ever had was anomalies found through ground penetrating radar. From
02:12:08.180Juno News, the Globe and Mail deletes post alleging Kamloops children's remains were found.
02:12:15.180Five years ago, radar technology located the remains of 215 former residential school students,
02:12:22.520reads the Globe and Mail LinkedIn post. There it is right there, but not there anymore. Despite
02:12:28.860misleading claims widely spread by the media, the 215 graves of children were uncovered at the site
02:12:35.440of the former Kamloops Residential School.
02:14:15.380Because no excavations have ever happened.
02:14:19.120The federal government took $13 million of our dollars,
02:14:22.700gave it to the Kamloops Indian Band for excavation purposes.
02:14:27.760three or four years ago no excavation has ever been done but the money was spent somehow
02:14:34.600interesting don't you think property rights is another big one people in british columbia are
02:14:41.400very concerned because of all of these first nations uh property claims that they're going
02:14:47.620to lose their home the government says well we're fighting it in court but they're not not really
02:14:52.940they've instructed their lawyers, according to the Conservative Party of Canada, to not
02:14:56.960fight this so hard. Appeal it, but not really. Because they actually believe the Liberal
02:15:07.500Government of Canada, and of course the NDP government in British Columbia, that a piece
02:15:12.900of land can have two owners. I don't know if that's really true. What about a hockey team?
02:15:20.860let's just say a professional sports franchise NFL team you've got one owner Bob Jones who owns
02:15:27.980the Las Vegas Raiders and then you've got another owner let's call him Harry Highfeather
02:15:34.260they both legally own the team but they make contrary decisions to each other
02:15:42.340how's that going to work really now one entity one owner but they're trying to make you it's
02:15:50.560amazing. They're trying to make you believe, no, no, we can have two owners. It's all right. You
02:15:54.800can have, you know, First Nations own it and you can own it as well. And the city and, you know,
02:15:59.540the province as well. So they were talking about it in committee today. Aaron Gunn is a conservative
02:16:06.160MP from Vancouver Island. He was asking some questions of the housing minister, Gregor
02:16:11.100Robertson today. But what I want you guys to see more than anything in this clip is the final 15
02:16:18.540or 20 seconds. This is about a two minute clip. The look on Aaron Gunn's face is priceless when
02:16:24.920you know who pipes up with a point of order. Watch this. Do you believe the right to private
02:16:31.200property is a fundamental human right? Through the chair. Well, first and foremost, I do believe
02:16:39.060that housing is a human right. And here in Canada, private property has been, I think,
02:16:46.920protected for generations and that that is what obviously a topic that's come
02:16:52.260up a lot in in these recent months. Of course especially in British Columbia as
02:16:56.400I'm sure you know. Do you believe Aboriginal title should and can exist on
02:17:00.600top of or in conjunction with existing fee simple title of individual home
02:17:05.880owners? Through the chair I think we've seen to date no challenge to private
02:17:12.520property as a result of Aboriginal rights and title and I think there's
02:17:17.760been a lot of fear-mongering lately that is saying that... Minister, do you believe
02:17:22.000that Aboriginal title should and can exist in conjunction with the fee simple
02:17:26.740title of individual homeowners? Through the chair. I think that they have0.93
02:17:31.700coexisted to date here in Canada without issue. They have coexisted.
02:17:37.720aboriginal title so why are you on what basis are you appealing the couch and decision then
02:17:42.460through the chair i am not appealing the couch and decision personally the government of canada
02:17:49.540is appealing alongside the province of bc and the city of richmond and several first nations
02:17:54.000was that not the part of the decision that uh that these word games make me want to vomit
02:18:01.220that these politicians play man we're the ones paying them to do it that was made
02:18:07.200But was the part of the decision that led to the appeal not the fact that the judge ruled that aboriginal title is existing in conjunction with fee simple title on the private property of homeowners?
02:18:19.740Through the chair. So to be very clear, I'm here to talk about the budget estimates.
02:18:25.240Then why are you appealing the Couchin decision if it's not a big deal?
02:18:28.580Again, through the chair. I am not appealing the Couchin decision.
02:18:31.140Why is your government appealing the Couchin decision?
02:18:32.680The government of Canada is appealing, and you can ask the Minister of Justice if you want a rationale.
02:46:26.920And that opens up several cans of worms, doesn't it?
02:46:34.040So I guess the only thing I can advise you to do right now is don't ever sign up for any kind of digital ID, whether it's government or corporate, because it's all the same thing now.
02:46:48.400That was the World Economic Forum, right?
