00:02:30.000 Hello, everybody. Welcome to Shadow at Night. This is Friday, February the 9th, 2024. Police
00:02:39.960 maintain man played significant role in Niagara Falls COVID-19 lockdown protest, putting public
00:02:46.980 at risk, court hears. Who is this man? Who is this common nuisance? Who is this vile individual
00:02:57.400 who put so many people at risk his name is cullen mcdonald and he joins the show tonight
00:03:04.240 and our friend dave freedom you guys may follow him on facebook if you don't you should
00:03:10.240 he i think is one of the most important people in the legal field not in the legal field in this
00:03:16.400 country but he maintains that cullen mcdonald's case is the most important case in canada right
00:03:25.540 now. And there's a reason for that, a specific reason for that, which we'll find out in just a
00:03:31.400 couple of minutes. Guys, I want to go ahead and read a press release that was sent out by
00:03:37.120 Eva Chipiuk today. Wrath and Company launches class action lawsuit against Alberta government
00:03:44.780 for COVID-19 business restrictions. On behalf of business owners in Alberta who faced operational
00:03:52.100 restrictions due to now deemed illegal public health orders. This lawsuit follows the recent
00:03:57.680 Ingram decision by the Calgary Court of King's Bench, which declared that all of Dr. Hinshaw's
00:04:02.560 public health orders were ultra-virus, in other words, illegal and not lawfully enacted. The
00:04:10.260 Ingram decision has opened the door for affected businesses to seek damages for financial loss
00:04:15.700 incurred due to the restrictions imposed by these unlawful public health orders eva chipiuk
00:04:22.160 and jeffrey rath will join the show on monday night to talk more about this and i would imagine
00:04:29.360 right now they're getting a roster of plaintiffs together for this class action lawsuit which will
00:04:34.460 be launched later on this year i assume although we'll find out more again on monday night with
00:04:40.080 Eva Chipiak, who is the co-counsel in this class action, and the lead counsel is Jeffrey R. W.

00:09:14.080 It's absolutely ridiculous, but we are getting some wins here and there, and the momentum is continuing to build.
00:09:20.100 All right, let's go ahead and read this story for you, because it's absolutely ridiculous.
00:09:25.300 This has to do with our guest tonight, Cullen, Cullen MacDonald.
00:09:29.160 This comes from the Niagara Falls Review.
00:09:33.580 Police maintain man played significant role in Niagara Falls COVID-19 lockdown protest, putting public at risk.
00:09:41.140 The court has heard.
00:09:43.280 Let me scroll this down here.
00:09:44.620 All right, so there he is there.
00:09:46.720 Now, kind of an intimidating figure, right?
00:09:49.180 If you look at that, that's Cullen right there.
00:09:51.060 Oh, man, I thought we were going to get one of these guys tonight.
00:09:54.000 He's, rawr.
00:09:55.140 I actually spoke to Cullen about a half hour ago,
00:09:58.640 and he's a really nice, soft-spoken fellow.
00:10:01.700 Anyway, a man who police allege,
00:10:04.600 and then you hear this story about him from the corporate media,
00:10:07.340 the Marxist corporate media.
00:10:08.520 They paint him like the devil here.
00:10:09.780 a man who police allege was one of the organizers of a large lockdown protest in niagara falls in
00:10:16.020 2021 pleaded not guilty to a charge of committing a common nuisance now i know that sounds ridiculous
00:10:23.740 common nuisance that's funny i got a laugh out of it colin tells me it's actually a lot more serious
00:10:29.500 than it sounds again we'll hear it from him in just a couple of minutes niagara regional police
00:10:34.460 arrested cullen mcdonald in april of 2021 for his role in a protest that brought hundreds of
00:10:40.060 people together in defiance of public health measures in place at the time to help prevent
00:10:44.880 the spread of covet 19 it was dangerous especially outdoors
00:10:52.060 under the criminal code a common nuisance is defined as any activity or act that's likely to
00:11:00.960 endanger the lives, safety, or health of the public or cause physical harm to any person.
00:11:07.080 In Ontario Court of Justice in St. Catharines, this is going back to last fall, Dr. Matthew
00:11:12.960 Muller, an infectious diseases physician from Toronto, testified there was a high degree of
00:11:17.380 COVID activity across Ontario at the time of this protest. He said the gathering could have
00:11:22.800 potentially created a risk for coronavirus infections due to the number of people in the
00:11:27.460 crowd who were close together and not wearing masks. I believe, the doctor said, that COVID
00:11:35.580 transmission among some of these individuals would be possible, but the risk would be quite
00:11:40.060 significantly lower compared to if something like this would have happened indoors. Well,
00:11:43.840 at least he admitted that. McDonald, who is self-representing at trial, argued the physician's
00:11:49.920 testimony was irrelevant as it had no bearing on a charge of common nuisance. And guess what?
00:11:54.420 He's absolutely correct. He's expected to cross-examine the doctor when the trial resumes before Judge Richard Blouin in November.
00:12:03.380 All right, never mind any more of this, because it's all painted from the Marxist corporate media's perspective.
00:12:08.840 Let's bring him on right now. Here is Cullen McDonald on the show. Cullen, thank you for joining the show tonight.
00:12:13.800 We really appreciate you taking the time to come on and talk to us.
00:12:18.060 First of all, self-representing in court, how did that go?
00:12:22.180 uh it's actually gone very well and um just want to make sure can you hear me okay absolutely can
00:12:29.220 you hear us yep yep okay we got you yeah it's been a learning experience it's uh i mean not
00:12:36.180 something that i ever thought i would be doing but uh uh unfortunately as many people found out
00:12:41.820 we're we're left with very few options uh when it comes to you know getting a fair trial and
00:12:46.880 and the whole justice system in general.
00:12:49.540 So, yeah, as we'll discuss, I've been working with Dave Freedom,
00:12:53.580 and he's helped me immensely, as well as the group from Stand For Thee and Jane Scarf,
00:12:59.740 all together, who've helped me, because I couldn't do this alone.
00:13:04.240 So, you know what I want to do, Cullen?
00:13:06.340 I want to go back to the beginning, way back at the beginning.
00:13:11.500 I generally ask this of my first-time guests, because I'm very curious to know,
00:13:15.500 because everybody has a different moment where they went, this is all a bunch of crap.
00:13:21.060 So when did that happen for you?
00:13:22.980 When did you first realize this was just a big smokescreen for something else?
00:13:27.700 Well, I'll tell you, this is kind of a little background story, a little personal,
00:13:31.000 but I was vaccine injured as a child.
00:13:34.880 So I spent a large part of my life recovering from that.
00:13:39.600 And that led me to natural medicine and not trusting vaccines.
00:13:43.240 So when Trudeau, I believe it was like April 2020, it was in the very beginning of the pandemic, Trudeau got up at the podium and said, you know, there will be no new normal until there's a vaccine.
00:13:56.960 But for me, I wasn't going to take a vaccine, period.
00:14:00.400 And that was 2020.
00:14:02.100 So this was three years before it was even talked about mRNA vaccines or anything.
00:14:07.060 So that was it for me.
00:14:08.520 I was one of the few who was awake right away.
00:14:13.240 because I had already done so much research in the medical industry and big pharma,
00:14:20.100 so I was awake right away to it.
00:14:22.900 So, knowing what you knew, and being probably one of the only ones at the time,
00:14:29.440 and I know that our group was significantly smaller then than it is today,
00:14:33.660 how difficult was it for you to get more and more people on board with what you were doing?
00:14:38.860 uh well the movement grew i was there in the very beginning and it was it just organically grew
00:14:45.660 um in the beginning you know doug ford in ontario was calling us the yahoos down at queen's park
00:14:52.020 we were there every weekend and uh it actually happened i got i made a post on facebook that
00:14:58.680 got removed by facebook this was the beginning of the censorship and for 10 years of me talking
00:15:04.280 about vaccine vaccine you know education history awareness i had never been banned so i had a post
00:15:11.100 that was banned and i said okay you're gonna you're gonna censor me online i'm gonna take this to the
00:15:16.460 streets and i just figured out where the closest protest was and that was toronto and then we just
00:15:21.540 met as a group and that group just grew and grew and grew and together it became the movement you
00:15:26.600 know how big was that group at its peak oh well we this was in early uh or late 2020 early 2021
00:15:35.300 i mean we were in and a lot of people don't even know this we were in ottawa with uh again these
00:15:41.820 numbers get conflated and sort of misrepresented but i think it was close to 10 000 people this
00:15:48.060 was this was yeah and this was back in 2020 so we had in ottawa the first protest in ottawa um
00:15:54.580 and in toronto we had anywhere from a thousand to five thousand at the peak give or take depending
00:16:01.340 any on any given weekend so when did when did the cops start getting more involved with what you
00:16:07.380 were doing because obviously you guys were in the street you were peaceful there was
00:16:10.760 there may have been one or two yahoos as doug ford said as there are in any large gathering i mean we
00:16:17.340 had them here in winnipeg i know there was some in calgary and edmonton all all the major cities
00:16:21.460 across the country um and and i remember talking to some of these guys and they're like way out
00:16:27.220 there right but they're attracted to any large crowd it doesn't matter what the large crowd has
00:16:32.200 been assembled for they just are attracted to it um so of course the media is going to put those
00:16:39.180 people in your group and maybe some of them get a little loud and maybe some of them look a little
00:16:43.300 funny but it was mostly peaceful right like there was this peaceful people walking on the streets
00:16:48.320 carrying signs maybe yelling a little bit but so what right yeah and at a time when i mean
00:16:53.840 humanity was at attack and and you know they were attacking our our connections uh it was it was
00:17:00.980 beyond happy it was a feeling that we all shared of you know like it was just amazing it was it
00:17:08.960 was truly it was like for some of us it was what kept us going just having that one day to be
00:17:13.420 normal with normal people because remember this was this was in the beginning so everyone
00:17:18.000 everyone was weird at that time so um but yeah we got painted as yahoos and of course they've
00:17:24.480 always you know if there was one person in the bunch the cameras would focus on them
00:17:28.300 but uh that's what they do right so when did the cops start taking an interest in what you guys
00:17:35.020 were doing it was late 2020 so i think it was like december into into january 2021 that's so
00:17:43.580 you guys had been doing this for a few months before the cops ever really came around in a
00:17:47.640 serious way yeah yeah yeah almost a year almost a year yeah okay and uh and no and they were i mean
00:17:54.480 they did their thing they had their surveillance trucks and they were getting our pictures and
00:17:58.080 they were doing all that but they were being helpful and they were blocking the roads for us
00:18:02.800 every weekend and uh with the exception of some little things here and there they were good and
00:18:07.760 then yeah and then the the word came down from up above to start cracking down on people who they
00:18:13.680 decided were organizers. And that's when you saw the rollout of these criminal charges that I got
00:18:20.100 charged with. I got two charges criminally of common nuisance, but a number of people, Lamont
00:18:25.660 Daggle, Kellyanne Wolfe, our friend Dave Freedom, we all got these criminal charges. Basically,
00:18:32.200 anyone who was making a difference, anyone who was an influence in the movement, and especially
00:18:39.320 the ones who are in uh more of the leadership roles we were the ones who got focused on because
00:18:46.320 the cops were there just like they were here undercover probably walking through the crowd
00:18:51.440 taking pictures taking video and noticing exactly who was on the stage who may have been hurting
00:18:57.380 people in a certain direction and all of that and you were one like you said they were they were in
00:19:02.040 our in our groups and in our telegram groups and when you get to see some of this disclosure you
00:19:06.920 see that you see that in reality you see that you know that they were infiltrating our movement and
00:19:12.080 we didn't even understand yeah i saw that as well in my court case last year which was hilarious
00:19:17.820 i'm sitting there by myself and i had two tickets right and i'm sitting there by myself and these
00:19:23.020 four manitoba justice officers walk in and they're getting set to testify like it's some big serious
00:19:29.200 thing and and the plexiglass was still up it was like being in some stupid weird crazy movie
00:19:36.680 it was the dumbest thing i had ever seen and i admitted to everything i said yeah i was there
00:19:42.980 yes i was speaking on the microphone yes i was not wearing a mask and i hugged somebody
00:19:49.080 oh the humanity right right it's absolutely ridiculous but let's get back to your situation
00:19:54.300 you just said that the word came down from up above what do you mean by that um those are you
00:20:02.000 know the the powers that be the the the shadow entities um that i mean just look at what happened
00:20:09.180 with covid never in the history of mankind has the entire world followed in lockstep not only
00:20:16.380 just together we followed china we fall from the world health organization so that that type of
00:20:21.920 stuff never happened before so to think that there aren't shadow entities that are directing what's
00:20:28.840 going on and from every literally every aspect of covid uh you'd be kind of you i'm afraid to say
00:20:35.380 you'd be naive if you didn't see that you know right right but talking about on this level here
00:20:41.020 we're talking about on a local level where the cops are coming around and they're identifying
00:20:44.520 you guys when you say above are we talking about the chief of police are we talking about the mayor
00:20:50.180 are we talking about a an mla are we talking about yeah the premier himself doug ford i'm sure if
00:20:57.800 there are multi-levels. What I saw and what I've seen from talking to other people is coming from
00:21:02.160 the Crown. It seems to be coming from the Crown prosecutors down to, and probably to the chief
00:21:07.060 of police. And then it trickles down, you know, they say hoop rolls downhill, right? So it's
00:21:12.360 starting somewhere. It does seem like the Crown is involved, which they shouldn't be. And we've
00:21:20.100 seen that in some other cases. So you get these charges, common nuisance, which are a lot more
00:21:26.280 serious than it sounds what happened after that uh it began the process i i was i was so just to
00:21:36.100 give you and your viewers a little background i was first charged in niagara falls uh with
00:21:41.500 common nuisance i was invited as a guest at a protest on um i can't remember the date right
00:21:48.980 now april 19th i think 2021 around there one was in april one was in may so i was invited i was uh
00:21:55.960 I was invited as a guest by the organizer. I came, I spoke, I spoke along Maxi alongside Maxine
00:22:01.820 Bernier, uh, some local celebrities. And, uh, it was amazing, patriotic, uh, amazing day. And then
00:22:09.940 I was arrested in my driveway a couple of days later and charged with common nuisance with that
00:22:15.320 charge of common nuisance came, uh, bail conditions because it's a criminal charge. I had to be, uh,
00:22:21.220 released on whatever it's called, a Form 11. I had bail conditions I had to adhere to.
00:22:25.720 This is where it gets funny. The bail conditions they gave me, okay, so the first set, they
00:22:31.500 prevented me from using, possessing a microphone or a megaphone. So I was charged criminally for
00:22:38.080 endangering the lives of the public, and the bail conditions that the Crown and the police gave me
00:22:44.340 essentially prevented me from speaking, which is strange. A week or two, I think it was actually
00:22:50.240 three weeks later i was invited to another protest and i went and i spoke again as a guest
00:22:55.640 and i was charged again i was charged again with with common nuisance and i was given bail
00:23:02.260 conditions a new set of bail conditions they changed one thing they increased the b so i
00:23:07.800 can't possess a microphone to now i couldn't be within 50 meters of amplified sound
00:23:14.840 you can't make this up so that's how they got me you know and they say oh they're trying to
00:23:22.360 silence us yeah what is what is that if not silencing me they didn't allow me to be within
00:23:28.680 50 meters of anything capable of amplifying my voice anything so i couldn't be within 50 meters
00:23:36.060 of a cop car because technically they have you know a pa and this is to show you right okay this
00:23:42.920 just to show you this is and this is this is what they did to me so i couldn't be within 50 meters
00:23:48.480 of amplified sound a few weeks later there was a vaccine pop-up clinic in toronto okay this was
00:23:54.600 something that the toronto public health uh had had rolled out and what they were doing is they
00:24:00.140 were luring and it was they were promoting it they had an advertisement promoting the uh the vaccine
00:24:05.680 the covid vaccine to uh anyone under the age or anyone over the age of 13 with or without their
00:24:12.520 parents' consent. Okay. I went to that vaccine pop-up clinic in, I think it was in 8th and
00:24:17.940 Phillips Square in Toronto. And because there were other people there with megaphones, I got arrested
00:24:24.740 a third time and charged with failing to abide by my bail conditions. Because I went to a vaccine
00:24:31.940 pop-up clinic and there were other people there with megaphones within 50 meters of me. Third
00:24:38.540 criminal charge let me ask you when i mean three arrests and the first one they're waiting for you
00:24:47.420 in your driveway and then this one here what were the cops like were they the same cops or were they
00:24:52.140 different ones every time uh different ones different there were some players that i saw i
00:24:57.420 mean i it was in the niagara region so it's a fairly small region so they were uh they were
00:25:02.860 different arresting officers uh their demeanor i actually i posted a video of it um they wouldn't
00:25:09.960 look me in the eyes they were masked and they were um they weren't able to look me in the eyes
00:25:16.040 which i think says a lot you know what do you think it says i've got my own ideas but what
00:25:22.840 do you think it says i was just doing my job i think that's what it says to me they're ashamed
00:25:30.360 yeah they're doing they're doing i believe they're doing what they're what they're told
00:25:35.220 and they may not like it but uh like so many other people in so many other positions they
00:25:41.100 were put in that position and they had a choice that what you know do i do this or do i quit my
00:25:47.180 job and have to find a new career for my whole family it's it's uh that's what i felt anyways
00:25:53.240 and and especially as this progressed i could see that more with some officers and not at all with
00:25:59.640 others you know it's interesting if we just take a break from the story for a second if we go back
00:26:05.460 to that time and we have the majority of police let's say it's not how it was but let's just say
00:26:13.300 it was like this and the majority of police say i'm not doing that that's it it's over it's game
00:26:20.000 over or if if all of the businesses you know acted and stood up like uh adam skelly is it adam skelly
00:26:28.420 skelly's barbecue yeah i mean if everybody did that what are they going to do arrest everybody
00:26:33.460 exactly and i'll tell you what they they this was actually like three days before the protest in
00:26:38.660 april uh the the that this was in ontario they they they rolled out the what was called the stay
00:26:44.580 at home order so we were literally told to just stay at home and not leave unless you need to
00:26:49.380 eat you know unless there's a couple exceptions where they said you could go outside and uh and
00:26:55.220 And I forget who it was, somebody in the provincial government got on the news and was saying, you know, the police will now have power to stop and basically, you know, show me your papers.
00:27:06.660 Where are you going? What are you doing? And all of the regional police in Ontario, all of them, I think almost every single one of them said we will not do that.
00:27:15.060 So they did. They did show some pushback, you know, and we saw these little glimmers of hope within the police.
00:27:22.040 But by and large, like you said, well, we all know how that rolled out, you know.
00:27:27.780 So let's get to how long did you have to wait, by the way, to get to court your first time between all of the charges that you got in your first court appearance?
00:27:37.080 It was that's another long story.
00:27:39.380 So I was I was charged and then I was I was doing everything at that time during Zoom.
00:27:43.400 and uh because of the because of these bail conditions and the fact that i was
00:27:49.080 criminally charged three times and i couldn't go to protests anymore right without without
00:27:53.960 having to wear a disguise or something i actually did you ever try that like put on a beard and a
00:28:00.940 fake nose and glasses i certainly did i certainly did good for you yeah well you know anyway what
00:28:10.480 happened was i i i took a break i i was basically you know silenced through these bail conditions
00:28:15.820 so i took a break and i went to mexico to mexico where i live now so i went to mexico with the
00:28:21.340 plan of only being here for six months and that was right when the vaccine mandate uh the back
00:28:27.620 the vaccine passports right so because i had this life started here in mexico at that time
00:28:33.140 and i needed to go back for trial uh i and i couldn't because if i ever went back to canada
00:28:38.460 I couldn't leave because, you know, I didn't have a vaccine.
00:28:42.880 So I couldn't come back. Right.
00:28:45.560 And that ended up it ended up me getting a warrant for my arrest because I had a bench warrant because I couldn't I couldn't make it to trial.
00:28:55.140 So I had to basically wait until the vaccine mandate dropped so I could come back, get arrested and resubmitted into the system.
00:29:05.420 so it so that's why it's taken from 2021 until until now did they understand that the authorities
00:29:12.580 or did they add another charge they understood that they didn't they they just left it at that
00:29:19.080 so when i was processed and rearrested i i didn't get any new charges they were nice on that one at
00:29:24.800 least okay so i guess at this point we need to talk about our friend dave freedom and i i have
00:29:32.220 been trying to get dave to come on the show uh had a conversation with him this afternoon great guy
00:29:38.680 you know knows so much about the legal system in canada i don't want to call it the justice system
00:29:45.960 because there's not a lot of justice these days we call it the legal system this guy is is so
00:29:49.900 steeped in knowledge about even the minutia uh of it and has it been how long have you known him
00:29:56.560 first of all uh since those early days in toronto since those early days and he was there he was
00:30:03.100 but you've gotten to know him fairly well uh yeah i mean through the through the movement you know i
00:30:09.500 saw him every weekend and we were uh we were cordial uh but it was really when when i was
00:30:14.660 going through this he reached out to me and um sort of took me under his wing and like i was
00:30:21.060 saying to you earlier before the show like i would not be here without dave uh i absolutely
00:30:26.320 owe everything i owe uh our one not guilty to him i owe everything to him because i wouldn't
00:30:32.040 have been able to do it without him it's uh it's it's really overwhelming uh to when you look at
00:30:39.380 like big picture there's but when you just get and especially with someone that's such a good
00:30:43.540 teacher like he is uh such a so so patient with me and to to explain these things because they're
00:30:50.020 really not that complex. You know, people view self-representing as this. I mean, I heard it
00:30:55.660 from many of my friends and my family. You know, you're crazy. What do you do? This is a criminal
00:30:59.780 trial. You are crazy. But when you get into it and you really, it's like anything, right? You
00:31:06.140 have to follow the instructions, play their game in their sandbox. And it's been great. And I owe
00:31:14.900 it all to Dave. Was Dave allowed to be in the courtroom with you? We never did that. I've just
00:31:21.560 self-represented the whole time and he's been on the back. So when I'm in trial, he's there on my
00:31:27.420 phone and we're corresponding as I'm doing the trial. I thought maybe he's sitting in the back
00:31:32.420 giving you hand signals or something. What about the nerves? And the reason I ask this, I mean,
00:31:39.240 you're self-representing and you're doing it in front of crown attorneys and a judge who's steeped
00:31:44.140 in legal knowledge. It's got to be intimidating. I know I was intimidated when I went to court
00:31:49.380 on two stupid tickets. And so you've got to get up, you've got to cross-examine,
00:31:55.400 you've got to question your own witnesses. How do you even know how to do this? And how do you
00:32:02.820 know when to object? I mean, how is it that you can do this? Well, you look down your phone and
00:32:08.640 you see dave going object object object object object okay i object no it's uh i've learned a
00:32:15.720 lot too i've learned a lot so i think that i've really uh you know pushed myself into this and
00:32:21.080 just i can do it i i for a living i'm i'm a sales rep so i can i can talk and i can deal with
00:32:29.340 pressure fairly well i the biggest part for me was just getting emotional not not necessarily
00:32:34.920 anxiety just just because it's it's such bullshit you know and uh and i was wrong and uh just trying
00:32:42.080 to prove your innocence you know they say you're innocent until proven guilty and then you get put
00:32:47.180 into this justice system and you find out the opposite is the truth you have to defend your
00:32:52.560 innocence tooth and nail you know yeah it's crazy so you got yourself a not guilty take us through
00:33:00.100 this because dave has been saying publicly for the last week or so even made a video about it
00:33:06.020 that your case is this upcoming one now not the ones that you've already been through
00:33:12.160 but the upcoming one this appeal i believe from the the crown is the most important case
00:33:18.780 in canada because they're using this as a test balloon to make common bylaw infractions actual
00:33:25.120 criminal offenses yeah yeah and and you couldn't have said it better that is that is a perfect
00:33:31.940 synopsis of of the gravity of this that's exactly what's going on uh so just just to clarify so you
00:33:38.240 understand i have two so i two trials same charge first one not guilty second one guilty it was the
00:33:46.940 same circumstances two different judges and if you read the um the rulings which are both available
00:33:53.020 uncannily it is a tale of two judges it's it's you can you can see in in plain and black and
00:33:59.100 white the difference between you know an impartial unbiased logical ruling and an opinion piece
00:34:07.000 from someone again who uh is very bold in the way it's it's it's you know and and so for that
00:34:15.000 reason we have excellent grounds for appeal so but what what i have is i have the crown appealing
00:34:20.080 my not guilty verdict and we are appealing my guilty verdict. So now two separate, I just did
00:34:27.640 two trials. Now I have to do two separate appeal trials. Both of them are equally important. And
00:34:32.800 for the reasons that you mentioned earlier, what the Crown's position here is that when anyone
00:34:39.300 breaks a rule, whether that be a bylaw or a provincial regulation, anytime there's a rule
00:34:46.860 for the greater good we stay at home um you know don't drive more than 15 minutes outside your city
00:34:54.260 uh anytime there's anything like that where it's the greater good and you violate that rule this
00:35:00.120 case law will be used by the crown to justify a criminal conviction against you that is so
00:35:10.600 dangerous and it's so insane that that because as as dave said in the video there's case law
00:35:16.380 Supreme Court of Canada, R v. Sharma, 1993, that states they cannot do that. You cannot escalate
00:35:23.800 a bylaw infraction into a criminal charge. And that's what the Crown wants. That's what he wants
00:35:30.100 the law to reflect. And for some people, and I'm sure many of your viewers, I see a lot of them
00:35:35.420 got excited. We were talking about law tonight. I learned a lot throughout this process. And the
00:35:40.080 biggest lesson that I've learned, the biggest realization is how case law changes everything.
00:35:46.440 It is used in these trials. It is used when you say, you know, how's basically case law is what
00:35:54.780 they use to justify their illegally charging you. So when they have case law that they can reference,
00:36:02.240 they're going to go to it right away. And that's why we saw it because in my two trials, my first
00:36:07.360 was not guilty my second was guilty the second one got uploaded into canly immediately we had
00:36:14.580 to request the first one which was from two weeks before to be uploaded to canly the reason they
00:36:19.740 wanted into canly so quickly is because they want this case law that's right that's exactly what's
00:36:26.080 going on here what i wanted to ask you and i think you just answered it but maybe you can elaborate
00:36:30.820 a bit your first case came back not guilty that establishes case law yeah go back to you go back
00:36:38.340 for the second case which is the exact or sorry second trial which is the exact same charges as
00:36:43.360 the first you've got case law in place yeah so you can revert to that unless it was not uploaded
00:36:49.500 to canley in time it went uh we did because well it wasn't on can in canley yet but what we did is
00:36:55.580 we revised our Book of Authorities. It's a factum. So basically, it's like your written
00:37:01.740 submissions, your written arguments. We sent an updated version to the judge with the new
00:37:08.980 case law in it. So basically, we put him on notice that this just happened in case he missed it or
00:37:14.720 in case, you know, for any reason. And essentially, in this judge's verdict, he just says he
00:37:20.180 disagrees. He disagrees with case law. And that's why, again, we have excellent grounds for appeal.
00:37:25.580 Right. So who's got the better chances of, like, what if you win one of these appeals and lose one of these appeals?
00:37:34.760 You've got to win them both. You've got to sweep this, right?
00:37:37.120 I thought about that today, Shadow. I was literally thinking about that.
00:37:40.500 What if they just sweep? I don't know.
00:37:44.400 Dave might even be a better person to answer that question as to, like, the next steps and how that gets sorted.
00:37:50.020 Because you're right, they would just cancel each other out.
00:37:52.220 But this is a perfect, this is like putting a spotlight on our justice system in a nutshell.
00:37:59.280 You know, how could this be?
00:38:00.960 How could this be that two judges come with two different verdicts for the exact same thing?
00:38:06.520 Yeah.
00:38:07.000 Like, what level of court were you in?
00:38:09.200 Was this, like, provincial court?
00:38:11.540 So it goes provincial court, then it goes court of appeal, and then the Supreme Court of the province, right?
00:38:17.120 So the Supreme Court of Ontario will hear this.
00:38:19.420 if i would imagine you will appeal if you lose one of these two cases coming up and then it goes
00:38:25.880 up to the tip top and then maybe to the supreme court like would you be willing to take this to
00:38:31.140 the supreme court of canada if you have that opportunity oh yeah yeah absolutely man absolutely
00:38:36.520 and listen we haven't got to this yet but i could have taken a plea deal i could have the crown
00:38:42.600 tried to scare the daylight out of me. This is what they do. He's saying that they're going to
00:38:51.360 go for full conviction, two years in jail. And he offered me the plea deal. So I could have taken
00:38:56.660 the easy route. I could have at any stage thrown in the towel. And I've said this to other people,
00:39:03.020 and I'll say it again for your viewers. I didn't do all that I did and said all that I did back
00:39:08.060 in the beginning just to take a plea deal right that makes no sense that's not that's not protesting
00:39:14.580 that's not freedom fighting um so no i'm going to take it to the end and for me at this point now
00:39:20.240 like i said i've been living in mexico i have a beautiful life out here this is i'm doing this
00:39:26.480 and dave just like dave freedom we're doing this uh in service of all canadians it's in service of
00:39:32.880 the children the innocent children who are going to inherit this mess you know the adults well
00:39:37.720 we're kind of all part of this you know we could kind of all be blamed for this mess but the kids
00:39:42.420 that are going to inherit this case law that's who i'm doing this for period i don't care about
00:39:49.480 myself i don't care if i'm found guilty i'm oh i'm a common nuisance like you said right it's not
00:39:55.460 about that it's really and it's not about the fine that comes with that i don't care about any of that
00:39:59.660 It's about defending this, defending our right to peaceful assemble, our right to, you know, to to have dissent and and and all of these things that are discussed in, you know, in our movement.
00:40:13.600 That's what I'm doing this for.
00:40:15.660 How has this affected you personally?
00:40:17.740 I mean, you've moved to Mexico, obviously.
00:40:20.400 I know you met somebody.
00:40:21.520 Congratulations on that.
00:40:23.600 But.
00:40:25.400 I mean, what about your friends and family back home?
00:40:28.840 did you lose a lot of them along the way is it the same story because i know that i've heard that
00:40:33.820 story i don't know how many times and i'm i count myself among them uh it's like we're living
00:40:38.720 different lives now completely different from what they were three maybe four years ago
00:40:42.300 yeah uh no i was blessed by god with an amazing family uh and we have remained strong as ever
00:40:51.740 throughout all of this uh we may not all see eye to eye but through love we we stay connected and
00:40:58.060 And in hindsight, now coming through all of it, a lot of my family members are starting to realize, oh, you know, maybe Cullen wasn't so crazy.
00:41:06.540 You know, and now that they're seeing what's happening to me, they're saying, well, this is this is wrong.
00:41:10.500 Right. And even some of my most liberal family members are switching, so to speak.
00:41:17.300 How has it affected me? It's affected me immensely, you know, emotionally, mentally.
00:41:22.760 um okay i i can't even describe it uh it even though even though like i said you know we're
00:41:31.980 going through it step by step and you know i'm not i'm not nervous or anything i'm not scared
00:41:36.340 it's stressful and it's taken so much of my time and just every time now every time i get an email
00:41:42.140 i i assume it's the crown uh you know doing something uh and that's got me on these you know
00:41:49.680 sort of uh walking on eggshells feeling and what what's worse than any of that is i haven't been
00:41:54.980 able to to move on with my life you know i've had this dragging me down i i and you know a lot of
00:42:02.140 people have even within the movement started new you know new adventures in their life and they've
00:42:09.000 been able to just kind of let go of covid and and move forward i've had this shit dragging me down
00:42:13.840 you know so that's been hugely impactful on my life in a negative way how much does it cost you
00:42:19.660 uh well i've been self-representing so just not that much i mean as far as monetary it's it's
00:42:26.800 been a couple flights back and forth a couple trips but you still have to make filings you
00:42:31.880 there's still certain things that you have to do and there's the cost of the court i'm not sure if
00:42:35.800 you've had to bear any of that yet yeah no we we did a fundraiser for the first we had to we had
00:42:41.820 to get transcripts for the first trial and um we had a fundraiser so we got some help from everyone
00:42:47.420 on that and um that's probably a good segue to to bring up we have a fundraiser right now
00:42:52.300 for these two appeals and um and that's going to help for the both the transcripts so when you when
00:42:59.280 you when you when you do an appeal you have to order the transcripts and the transcripts are
00:43:04.800 basically done by a third party it's uh something you have to pay for and also what we're what we
00:43:10.160 need for this for these two appeals although we've been doing it ourselves and we've been doing it
00:43:15.020 we've been doing the best we can. I think, and Dave agrees, we owe it to all of Canada to file
00:43:23.660 professional factums with these two appeals. So we have this fundraiser. We've had it up for a few
00:43:30.540 days. It's not getting too much traction. I was really hoping that this would help because like
00:43:36.920 I just said earlier, this isn't for me. I'm not doing any of this for me. And any donations that
00:43:43.580 anyone can make are going to go directly to benefiting all of canadians you know colin
00:43:49.980 where can we find the fundraiser i'll put it up on the screen uh what is it i i can send it to you
00:43:55.820 in the in the private chat okay i don't know if you can flip back and forth but i can't send it
00:44:01.260 to you yeah all right so and and also just uh check out dave freedom for your viewers check
00:44:06.460 out dave freedom on facebook uh dave freedom pretty easy name to remember uh it'll be a guy
00:44:12.300 wearing a vest, I think pulling a wagon, and he'll also have it posted on his Facebook.
00:44:18.520 Okay, I'm going to throw this up here real quick for the viewers. So here it is. This is on
00:44:23.520 fundraiser. So as you can see, it's spelled F-U-N-D-R-A-Z-R.com. And I noticed, and this
00:44:31.480 is something I hadn't brought up yet, and Dave brought this up on the phone this afternoon,
00:44:36.480 the Crown Attorney or the Assistant Crown Attorney who has been involved in this, his name is Michael
00:44:41.640 lucifora so if we're talking about a battle between good and evil here if we're talking
00:44:48.800 about a battle between right and wrong having that name it's probably pretty symbolic wouldn't
00:44:55.660 you say yeah no it's just a coincidence of course just a big coincidence i know i know uh you can't
00:45:03.900 make this stuff up right you really can't uh what does it cost cullen what is it what does it cost
00:45:08.740 to get these transcripts is it like a thousand dollars is it more than that yeah it's all it
00:45:14.080 they go by by the hour so they get the recordings and they type it out uh for what we need uh it's
00:45:20.520 fourteen hundred dollars and then and uh and then the legal fee so we've actually we've been talking
00:45:28.020 to a few lawyers and uh through through the movement we've been offered some really good uh
00:45:32.760 deals. So typically to do a factum for a criminal appeal, you're looking at minimum like $25,000.
00:45:41.240 And as you can see, our total with the transcriptions and the lawyer fees is $9,500.
00:45:49.480 That's what we're looking to get. That's all we're going to need to file professionally crafted
00:45:54.540 factums. And then I'm going to be self-representing. Again, the reason that we're doing that is because
00:45:59.880 I want to keep control of this, right? And I don't want a lawyer to misrepresent what I want.
00:46:09.180 And we feel that that's probably the best way to go. And a lot of these, really, a lot of these
00:46:14.920 appeals, it's the written submissions that really matter. So it's the written factums that really
00:46:20.940 kind of the judges rule on. So that's the most important part. Basically, I'm just going to be
00:46:26.460 reading the fact of that as in trial that's what it colin do you trust lawyers
00:46:32.540 no i mean no uh i don't trust them in the sense like do i trust doctors no does that mean that
00:46:42.480 doctors or lawyers are untrustworthy no but the the system that they work for
00:46:46.980 unfortunately the legal system uh it's it's set up like any other industry it's set up to keep
00:46:54.520 itself going so every from the judges to the crown to these lawyers the bar all of it they are all
00:47:02.340 an industry working together and you see it through the through the uh just going through
00:47:07.780 the process i had like nine or ten pre-trials nobody knew what was going on it took me a year
00:47:14.240 and a half to get my disclosure they waste time they bring up things last minute they adjourn
00:47:19.740 things. They give you disclosure last minute. So you have to adjourn. The whole system is set up
00:47:25.600 this way. And unfortunately, lawyers cannot, they can't buck the system. They just can't.
00:47:30.900 If they want to keep their jobs, if they want to keep their license, they got to play
00:47:34.060 by the rules. When you self-represent, you don't. And not only don't you have, you don't have to
00:47:39.600 play by the rules. They have to legally give you more time and they have to let, give you that
00:47:44.780 uh grace so to speak what's your opinion what's your opinion on some of on the lawyers who did
00:47:52.300 come out speak out and do some work fighting some of these ridiculous cases we've got
00:47:59.080 you know a handful i could mention right now there's keith wilson out of edmonton there's uh
00:48:04.300 ava chipiak obviously uh leighton gray has done some work and then there was rocco galati but
00:48:09.800 I've heard some things about Rocco in the last month or two that aren't exactly flattering.
00:48:17.640 Yeah, well, to all those lawyers and even Rocco, God bless them and thank them for doing that.
00:48:24.740 And it's the same thing, again, with the correlation with the nurses and doctors who stepped out.
00:48:30.960 Some of them lost everything over it.
00:48:33.660 And I I I really, really do feel that there is good in this world.
00:48:40.400 And we see that even in the in the judges, too.
00:48:43.940 Right. Like, how did I get this good judge in this bad judge?
00:48:46.380 Well, there's good lawyers and bad lawyers.
00:48:49.020 And but what we saw, what we see a lot of is them just playing playing by the rules, taking the plea deals, making these little backdoor deals and not necessarily having the say the best interest of their client.
00:49:02.620 and definitely not the best interest of all of canada you know would you say that you
00:49:08.060 now i don't want to get in get you in trouble here get you any more charges
00:49:13.660 so i'll try and put this delicately but there's only so delicate you can be with this one again
00:49:19.020 have you seen corruption in the court system
00:49:23.340 i i can't say that i can't say that i have personally i haven't seen it like if you're
00:49:33.440 asking about with my with my cases uh no they the the thing is by playing there within their rules
00:49:41.300 there's a lot of wiggle room for you know following the law but still technically you
00:49:46.600 know not following the law but i haven't seen anything like that i could say flat out is you
00:49:51.280 No. Illegal.
00:49:53.320 I haven't seen that, no.
00:49:54.800 Have you had to fight against any judicial notice at all?
00:49:59.900 No.
00:50:01.240 No.
00:50:01.700 That's a good thing.
00:50:03.040 I don't even know what that is, to be honest with you.
00:50:05.400 Well, judicial notice is a point in a court where a judge will liken something to the fact that it simply exists,
00:50:16.600 like the sky is blue or water is wet, right?
00:50:18.940 And so they were they were applying judicial notice to the covid vaccine that it was safe and effective.
00:50:25.380 And that's why. Yeah, you couldn't argue it because.
00:50:29.280 So with that, with that, that definition, I have seen that in my in the ruling that I was found guilty.
00:50:37.520 The judge said that it basically it was it's an irrefutable fact that covid was a virulent, deadly virus that was taking over our world.
00:50:49.200 Basically, that that would be you couldn't that that was a fact, an irrefutable fact of reality.
00:50:57.700 You know, essentially, you couldn't have the view, for example, that viruses don't exist or, you know, the terrain theory, exosomes, these types of things.
00:51:06.980 that's what that's what in the ruling of the judge that i was found guilty he did have that
00:51:11.800 that view so he took the judicial notice it's interesting because i understand that there's
00:51:19.000 an edict that came down right from the supreme court of canada and the minister of justice at
00:51:22.780 the time david lametti through all the courts across the country they were to take judicial
00:51:27.120 notice in matters of covet 19 vaccines masks all of the mandates and i'm surprised that that first
00:51:34.360 judge didn't do that it's interesting he did the opposite so the opposite so when we're talking
00:51:41.220 about judges can you how is it that you get assigned a certain judge i mean you've got a
00:51:49.340 good one or you got a bad one is it just the luck of the draw or is there some sort of uh hearing
00:51:54.760 where you guys can go and pick one or argue about who's going to be overseeing the case or you just
00:51:59.680 get what you get um dave's got uh dave's gotten more experience with that i know uh i i from what
00:52:07.500 i've seen uh there there there definitely appears to be and again this is my assumption but there
00:52:14.080 appears to be a plan so when i for example when i went to trial uh i walked in on the first day
00:52:21.560 and this was in person they forced me to go in person so i went there and i walked in and the
00:52:27.000 first individual that i saw in the courthouse that morning after being there for an hour the first
00:52:32.380 person i saw wearing a mask was the judge and so i was assigned this judge and he's the only judge
00:52:38.400 he's the only person in the building this was just in uh october right so he was the only this past
00:52:44.740 october no one was wearing masks except for him this one so i was like okay you know uh what are
00:52:50.440 the chances of that screwed the judge is wearing a mask we've already lost that's probably what you
00:52:55.260 were thinking. Exactly. And, uh, and, and when, whenever you, especially as a self-rep, whenever
00:53:01.040 you throw a wrench in their, in their plan, they don't like it, but it, it, it really screws up
00:53:06.900 everything. So when I did that, uh, I, uh, because of, uh, particulars in the case, I had to request
00:53:14.180 an adjournment. And what happened was they switched judges the next day. The first day was
00:53:18.960 kind of thrown out and, uh, and everything kind of like unraveled, but you still don't know,
00:53:24.580 uh it it seems like they definitely have a plan though to answer your question
00:53:29.460 and i don't know how that happens i've heard things of you know judge shopping and um
00:53:35.000 you just don't get i don't anyway i don't get to peer into that side of it i can just make
00:53:41.560 assumptions it just sounds like it's unfair like these guys can rig the game yeah yeah yep and you
00:53:49.600 know when when they know each other when they don't you know the judges and the crown um and
00:53:54.540 also just in the fact that they work in the same building summit and you know they see each other
00:53:59.120 every day well they already have that personal bias too colin i'm gonna bring somebody okay so
00:54:04.900 here is dave dave freedom has joined hey dave how's it going can't hear you buddy are you muted
00:54:15.020 he must be muted hey dave
00:54:18.860 perfect timing for dave too yeah no kidding i guess he's probably been watching this
00:54:26.420 his devices let's try him again here hey dave
00:54:32.960 oh this is upsetting
00:54:36.740 yeah i was just about to wrap it up dave so i'm going to give you 60
00:54:42.120 No, I'll give you two minutes to figure this thing out because we're getting close to the end here.
00:54:47.880 When are your dates?
00:54:49.520 You've got two dates coming up.
00:54:51.000 When are they, Colin?
00:54:51.700 Are you going to be able to do them via Zoom or do you have to come back to Canada now?
00:54:56.480 Well, so the first appeal is set for March 28th currently.
00:55:03.720 Wow, that's soon.
00:55:05.640 Are they rushing this through?
00:55:07.100 Are they trying to make it so you can't prepare?
00:55:08.980 uh that's i mean that's a that's a reasonable time it was it was given a couple weeks ago so
00:55:16.680 i don't see that as as being a rush um i think that that's that's an adequate time for us to
00:55:23.340 prepare and then the second trial the second appeal we haven't even set yet so that will be
00:55:28.500 to be determined dave i think i just heard a little audio i heard some squeaking or something
00:55:36.360 on the other end there hey dave oh you're gonna have to bring him back oh i i think he's
00:55:47.200 we heard something there this is the mysterious dave freedom that's one two test test there we go
00:55:56.580 there he is all right i have like six different options i'm just going to test test test test
00:56:01.060 okay you can hear me oh yeah we got you we got you so what is it you wanted to cut in on here
00:56:07.240 because uh were we talking about something that was wrong no no no no i just uh just want to uh
00:56:14.020 you know if you had any questions i know colin uh not to have all the answers of course but
00:56:19.460 if you had additional questions you want to ask before the show ended um you know i i could
00:56:25.140 sorry to interrupt i knew you guys were on a roll here opposite no man that's all right
00:56:29.600 how many different cases dave have you worked on so far in these last three years
00:56:34.960 gosh uh so that's a good question so you're talking about like all the way from beginning
00:56:41.080 to end or just yeah yeah like all of it because i've got dabbles and middles and
00:56:45.860 beginning to end so this it really depends but i don't know if i hit
00:56:49.320 i want to give a conservative number but i don't know probably like 150 200 i mean that many
00:56:58.120 over 100 i would say just involved in cases themselves for sure over 100 and he's not in
00:57:04.580 this daily conversation little conversations he has people talking to him every day asking
00:57:10.460 little questions here's a great comment just to be clear just to be clear not a lawyer i'm not an
00:57:15.860 unlicensed law practitioner, which I've been accused of. I don't give legal advice. And
00:57:22.420 everything I do is free. I don't charge. And, you know, it doesn't pay well, but it's good for the
00:57:29.040 soul. I can at least say that. How have you been able to manage this? I can't really, to be honest
00:57:34.880 with you. You're doing it anyway. You see, this is what I like. This is, you know, I'm going to
00:57:41.440 ask the both of you guys this question i've been asked this question before and my answer to it is
00:57:46.060 because i couldn't sleep so and tucker carlson asked russell brand this last week on an interview
00:57:52.500 when uh tucker asked russell have you thought about stepping away from your podcast with
00:58:00.820 everything you and your family have been through these past six months re all of those
00:58:06.040 accusations that Russell is having to fend off about sexual deviance or whatever it is that
00:58:15.760 he's been fighting. And Russell said, no, I haven't. And he looked rather sheepish and
00:58:21.660 contrite when he said this, which is not Russell Brand's general mode, right? I mean, he's usually
00:58:26.200 pretty bombastic. And he said, I couldn't sleep at night if I stopped. There's something terrible
00:58:34.660 going on in the world and people need to hear about it is that let's start with you colin is
00:58:40.740 that what you've already said but let's go ahead and ask again i mean you're you're willing to take
00:58:44.960 this right to the mat and it's not about you it's about the future generations and it's about the
00:58:50.760 people of canada but is there any way that anybody could convince you to not do this
00:58:56.780 no like if i'm to walk up to you and say hey dude you know what everything that we've done to you
00:59:03.780 like if i'm michael lucifora and i walk up to you and say look you know what everything we've done
00:59:09.220 to you i paul this is quiet you can't tell anybody this but everything we've done to you i apologize
00:59:13.880 for and we're willing to take everything off the table just walk away a free man forget about
00:59:17.360 everything but the only thing is you can't say anything about anything yeah yeah what would you
00:59:24.680 gfy gfy the elon the elon musk response i got you exactly no no no exactly you got the wrong guy
00:59:34.600 you got you got the wrong guy you know right it's very i don't know there's very few people i i
00:59:39.060 recognize that not everyone's like me but i'm in a individual as a personal i i don't have any
00:59:45.320 dependence right i don't have any kids i don't have you can't take nothing from me uh i always
00:59:52.080 say can't stop won't stop what about you dave i mean you've handled so many of these cases for
01:00:00.140 free you've steeped in legal knowledge for a guy who's not a lawyer a guy who doesn't give legal
01:00:05.540 advice what if somebody said all right man look you know you can stop doing all this i'm going
01:00:11.160 to give you 10 million dollars right now just stop half a second to think about it but like
01:00:18.280 uh colin said uh go uh after yourself and i know it's uh it sounds like a cliche but i mean it's
01:00:25.280 to simplify it's good versus evil actually i remember when the crowd had asked uh kelly hale
01:00:30.460 he's the uh former owner of uh jack tuesday and they were trying to well they were maliciously
01:00:36.680 prosecuting this man he's one of the few that stood up for against uh vaccine mandates for
01:00:41.000 restaurants and they and the crowd you know he was playing games this guy was a dick and uh
01:00:46.760 basically said, you know, you say you're in a spiritual war, Mr. Hale.
01:00:53.120 Can you elaborate on that?
01:00:56.140 And, of course, I know the question and the context is being asked to make him appear crazy.
01:01:00.820 And I just remember him saying, I'll never forget that.
01:01:02.380 Well, how much time you got?
01:01:04.760 And it's like, and that's the truth.
01:01:06.500 And it really is a spiritual war.
01:01:09.980 You know, so it's a cliche.
01:01:12.080 It's good against evil.
01:01:14.040 This case is so important.
01:01:15.620 I caught a little bit what you were saying about, there was some confusion about, you know, how does one judge say not guilty and the other one say guilty?
01:01:24.360 You know, so they started off at Ontario Court of Justice.
01:01:27.560 So in the criminal courts, it's the lowest, you know, where you've got traffic ticket, of course, but then you've got Ontario Court of Justice, which is a lower court.
01:01:35.360 So not a huge, huge bearing in terms of, you know, change the world case law.
01:01:42.140 But once it gets to Superior Court and then even, obviously, Ontario Court of Appeals, then it's different.
01:01:48.480 So let's say, you know, they bring back mandates for whatever in, you know, I don't know, climate change or 50-minute cities, new variant disease acts, whatever it is.
01:01:59.140 You know, these people will be maliciously prosecuted through Ontario Court of Justice.
01:02:03.600 So in theory, Michael Lucifora would then have a president set if he gets his way on this appeal in superior court. So automatically, as per common law in this country, that would have more bearing than another lower level Ontario Court of Justice.
01:02:22.060 So it kind of cancels each other out, and that's how that judge could sort of sidestep and say, okay, I don't agree with my friends, so I'm going to say guilty.
01:02:30.780 He wouldn't be able to do that, you know, in theory, with the way the law works in this country if he's going against a higher court.
01:02:38.480 And the rule of thumb is the higher you go, the more significant it is.
01:02:42.980 And basically how it works in the Interior Court of Justice, Superior Court, Interior Court of Appeals, Supreme Court of Canada.
01:02:48.120 and so dave just just chime in so for for clarity for the viewers too and it because this case law
01:02:55.100 is is a criminal matter to the criminal code common nuisance that could be applied to anyone
01:03:00.460 in canada right absolutely any provincial regulation being violated in any province would
01:03:06.800 go ahead because it's because yeah because so the criminal code of canada is a federally regulated
01:03:11.400 instead of codes so it applies to manitoba bc uh ontario quebec whatever so uh it's uh it's it's
01:03:20.180 a criminal charge and it's a completely different ball game than than these you know the rinky dink
01:03:24.400 buy a lot tickets i mean they weren't rinky dink because we'd have people that were called you
01:03:28.020 know they were part of the 880 club and that's how much the tickets cost the time in ontario
01:03:32.180 i think they were different in each province but uh you know it's different because like colin said
01:03:37.560 They can say, okay, well, just like myself, I mean, I was charged with the same thing Colin was, and that's kind of how I kind of got started into this.
01:03:44.860 And I just dove headfirst because I, too, was maliciously prosecuted for a full year and had to go to court like a dozen different times and press you into taking deals.
01:03:55.500 Eventually, they said, okay, just pay us $100 and we'll just go away, right?
01:04:00.000 And I said, no, I can't do it.
01:04:02.060 As much as it was easy just to give them a brownie, I couldn't do it.
01:04:06.400 I couldn't sleep with myself.
01:04:07.560 okay so i'm showing out the 880 club here that's what i was showing you guys there you go you guys
01:04:13.040 got 880 in manitoba it was 1296 you guys got off uh pretty good let me ask you there's people
01:04:18.780 people asking in um micheline by the way says love your guests shadow thank you these are good guys
01:04:26.020 uh i have gotten some some comments tonight from people saying how come i haven't heard of cullen
01:04:31.920 before how come i haven't heard of dave before now i've known about the two of you for a while
01:04:38.040 dave longer than cullen but it's time that we get this story out there to as many people as we
01:04:44.820 possibly can that's why i ask you guys who are watching this right now like and share get it
01:04:50.480 out there that's how these things happen right if they can if we can get enough push behind them
01:04:55.980 they can go viral and we can let the people of canada know what's going on you know and and
01:05:01.200 I know that the coots guys got a lot of attention and that's absolutely deserved because I mean come on you're spending 700 plus days in jail without trial that's absolutely ridiculous but this is equally as frustrating you know in a different way and now what we've got coming up here are two possible precedent setting appeals cases that could affect every single person in this country so that's why I say you guys got to get this out to as many people as possible no matter what platform you're watching
01:05:31.080 on yeah thank you guys and dave as for you i want you on the show uh one of these days just you and
01:05:36.840 me we got to talk about stuff sure yeah and cullen i'm more than willing to have have you back uh
01:05:42.620 anytime man because you're a good guy and you're standing up and we appreciate everything you have
01:05:48.020 done and you too dave you guys are both rock stars as far as i'm concerned thank you well thank you
01:05:53.140 very much for bringing attention to this this matter because it really is important and i can't
01:05:57.260 it i'm not the kind of guy that says oh this is so important and it's just you know this really
01:06:02.160 is important you know and and and uh there's no case like it in fact you know just uh i'll say
01:06:07.920 one more thing when when we had trial just to give you an idea of how new this is this concept
01:06:13.540 of arresting someone for for breaking a bylaw and just saying oh well there was a risk there's so
01:06:19.760 you know again equivalent to if you're speeding one kilometer over on the highway that's technically
01:06:24.740 putting people at risk is it not so it's the same kind of ridiculousness but they would use a case
01:06:28.920 law from the early 90s about a guy who had who was hiv infected and he would intentionally
01:06:34.100 donate his blood for the purpose of harming other human beings how can they can even how can they
01:06:39.620 even think about conflating these two situations they're not at all the same precisely but that's
01:06:44.360 and that was a case i think greenspun worked on in the early 90s it went to supreme court
01:06:49.560 and um they're trying to basically say that colin had the same guilty mind as as this sicko
01:06:56.540 basically back in the night that's all they had and another one they had was a guy that made a
01:07:01.000 plea deal usually you don't see that uses case law plea deals you see usually decisions and rulings
01:07:05.400 but they're so desperate that he used a plea deal of a common use in charge of someone that
01:07:10.340 violated the quarantine act do you think do you guys think that these assistant crown attorneys
01:07:17.340 know what they're really doing here or are they just doing what they're told
01:07:22.000 my my opinion both you uh so the combination of some know exactly what they're doing
01:07:31.720 uh some know what they're doing don't like it and very you know and very few actually just have no
01:07:38.940 idea what they're doing i would say i mean they're setting a setting us on a very dangerous
01:07:42.460 precedent towards a totalitarian
01:07:45.100 authoritarian state
01:07:46.760 here. They must know
01:07:48.680 that.
01:07:50.200 I believe, I mean, for someone to go to law school
01:07:52.860 and be able to
01:07:54.460 run a trial, I would assume that they would
01:07:56.300 obviously have the brain capacity to figure that
01:07:58.600 one out. So yes, to answer your question.
01:08:01.080 And it's a shame. I couldn't do
01:08:02.660 it personally. No, I couldn't do it.
01:08:04.920 None of us. Thank you guys for
01:08:06.520 coming on tonight. We'll talk again soon, okay?
01:08:08.640 Absolutely.
01:08:08.880 Yeah. Shadow, if I could, just before we get off of the remaining guests again, I just want to mention the fundraiser again.
01:08:16.800 We want to get that fundraiser going. We want to get this factum perfected for you guys.
01:08:23.300 And thank you so much, Shadow. Thank you so much. We really appreciate it, man.
01:08:28.560 There it is. They're a fundraiser. So that's F-U-N-D-R-A-Z-R dot com, you guys.
01:08:34.800 And then just look up Colin McDonald in the search. You will find it.
01:08:38.460 and I've left it in the comment section of Facebook.
01:08:41.140 I'll put it as well on Rumble and X tonight
01:08:43.200 so you guys can access it easily with a simple link.
01:08:46.520 Cullen, thank you for coming on tonight, man.
01:08:48.380 Best of luck, and you're welcome back anytime.
01:08:50.760 Thank you. Thank you so much. God bless, guys.
01:08:53.160 All right, brother. Take it easy.
01:08:54.820 I know.
01:08:56.960 There's Cullen McDonald.
01:08:59.460 What a great story.
01:09:00.480 I wish I'd had him on earlier, but it is what it is,
01:09:04.480 and I'm happy to have had him on and Dave tonight.
01:09:07.060 This Dave Freedom character, you guys, is just that.
01:09:11.120 He is a very interesting character,
01:09:12.760 and I really want to get him on for a full episode one night
01:09:17.580 to talk about everything that he has been through,
01:09:19.900 the people he's dealt with, the situations he's seen in court.
01:09:24.420 He knows so much about the ins and outs of our legal system
01:09:29.700 without being a lawyer, and he's able to relate it to people like us
01:09:33.900 who may not understand the high-minded language a lot of the actual lawyers
01:09:38.980 who have attained the bar use.
01:09:42.280 So we'll try and get that happening.
01:09:44.100 Eva Chepiak is coming on Monday night to talk about the class action
01:09:47.620 they're launching in Alberta for all the business owners
01:09:50.000 who were illegally shut down during the COVID restrictions.
01:09:53.720 That's going to be a great show.
01:09:55.540 Make sure you're here on Monday night at 8 o'clock central for Eva Chepiak.
01:10:01.020 and that's it for the show tonight on social media we're going to continue on shadow davis.com

01:10:13.380 carlson um i keep wanting to say boris yeltsin but we know it's not boris yeltsin like why boris
01:10:20.060 why is that coming to my brain vladimir putin we're going to dive into that that interview
01:10:26.460 specifically one part of it where Putin talks about a Nazi in the Canadian Parliament.
01:10:33.000 We're going to hear what Justin Trudeau thinks about the Tucker Carlson, Vladimir Putin interview.
01:10:37.720 Also, what Justin Trudeau thinks about the Bell Media layoffs, like he should have anything to think at all.
01:10:43.360 He's a politician. Keep your nose out of businesses.
01:10:46.180 And there's a couple of other things I want to discuss as well in the extension coming up on ShadowDavis.com.
