Western Standard - CORY MORGAN SHOW： Unions in Alberta have declared war on direct democracy

00:00:00.000 good day welcome to the cory morgan show

00:00:30.000 getting towards the end of november and winter finally bloody arrived you know i like to

00:00:34.480 complain and piss and moan about all sorts of things and winter is one of them it's nothing

00:00:38.160 that can be changed despite the climate change clowns claiming otherwise but it's still something

00:00:42.960 i can't stand but whatever just got to get over it and deal with it so guys for those watching

00:00:47.680 live i see wild rose there you know get in there use the comments sends questions my way comments

00:00:52.880 if you're watching this on cowboy channel or rfd tv well this is recently recorded and you can

00:00:59.200 come in if you like but we're not there anymore thanks for watching uh let's see we've got warren

00:01:04.400 kinsella coming on in a little while he's going to talk about a book he's got upcoming it'll be

00:01:09.120 an interesting conversation about more of the organized misinformation campaign going on with

00:01:14.880 regards to that whole mess in the middle east and israel

00:01:18.160 now let's see what else we got going on the agm i'll talk a little bit about that for those in

00:01:22.960 alberta with the wild rose party wild rose holy cow i'm out of date united conservative party

00:01:28.400 we change parties all the time one way or another try to be conservative and you know this ties into

00:01:32.720 a bit of what i'm going to go on about right now and that's uh our recall act and citizens initiated

00:01:39.200 referenda that sort of thing it's been a long road for albertans to get legislation for direct

00:01:43.440 democracy allowing city assistance to initiate referenda and to recall elected officials

00:01:48.560 get some history here guys in 1936 the social credit government at the time brought in recall

00:01:53.280 legislation only to repeal it once it was used against their own leader in 2021 the ucp under

00:01:58.080 jason canney brought in recall and referendum legislation to keep a promise but he purposely

00:02:02.480 set the bar so high it could never be realistically used so early this year the ucp government under

00:02:08.160 daniel smith amended the legislation to set realistic bars for initiatives now alberta's organized

00:02:13.920 labor movements trying to blow the legislation up recall legislation for elected officials is a

00:02:18.960 great concept but setting the bar for initiating it is tough i mean has to be high enough to avoid

00:02:23.840 frivolous recalls but low enough to be accomplished if an elected official has managed to upset enough of

00:02:29.760 their constituents that there's just no other way to get rid of them it is intended to be a legislation

00:02:34.160 of last resort i mean if a person who's in elected positions gone so off far off the rails done

00:02:39.680 something so terrible that most of their local constituents want them out of office before the next

00:02:43.360 election at least recall becomes a choice if you want an example search dar hetherington it's a

00:02:50.000 really interesting case from lethbridge a few years back because she stayed in as crazy as she was and

00:02:54.960 those poor voters could not get rid of her it's not meant to be used every time an elected person

00:02:59.280 votes away that local activists still care for however and that's what's happening right now so

00:03:04.000 despite being offered a generous settlement alberta's teachers union was insisted on staying on strike

00:03:08.080 while never clearly expressing their demands alberta's children were suffering due to lost classes and

00:03:13.040 negotiations were in a stalemate so the ucp was forced to legislate the teachers back to work

00:03:18.240 well alberta unions through their activist swings the alberta federation of labor and public interest

00:03:23.360 alberta decided to push back on this for abusing the recall legislation they're initiating recall

00:03:28.400 petitions against numerous ucp mlas and may eventually try it against them all most if not all of these

00:03:35.600 petitions are going to fail and i'll explain why the union backed recall initiatives were inspired by

00:03:41.440 disgraced former redford mla thomas lukasic's referendum petition he garnered over 400 000

00:03:47.520 signatures quite a feat from people asking to hold a referendum about nothing lukasic's initiative was

00:03:53.440 asking for albertans to spend the money and time to go to the polls to ask whether we want to keep

00:03:57.040 things exactly how they are today it's a pointless question and amounts to a little more than a very

00:04:01.280 expensive opinion poll lukasic thought he was scoring points by using the system this way but it might

00:04:06.160 have backfired on because with the rephrasing of his proposed question he might have inadvertently

00:04:10.960 initiated a separate separation referendum in alberta now referendum legislation's in place to

00:04:15.920 allow albertans the chance to vote on issues when they become so important or contentious that it's

00:04:20.960 best to put it to everybody rather than just legislators lukasic's initiative ignored the spirit

00:04:26.400 of that that said it was an impressive feat to gather somebody's signatures well let's not pretend

00:04:30.720 he didn't accomplish that without a great deal of help from alberta's unions uh when petitioning for a

00:04:35.040 referendum the petitioners can come from anywhere in alberta and the signatories can be from anywhere

00:04:40.080 in alberta that allow lukasic to focus in highly unionized areas and zones where discontent with the

00:04:44.880 ucp was evident in the polls recall legislation's different with recall legislation not only must the

00:04:50.880 people signing the petition live in the constituency of the person being targeted by the recall but

00:04:55.920 everybody working on the campaign must live in the constituency as well it's supposed to be a local

00:05:00.960 effort now petitioning appears to have been funded or operate operated by outside help the recall can

00:05:06.160 be declared void petitioners must register with elections alberta nobody should be found without

00:05:11.040 an id badge proving they are registered and local unions can't bust people or money into the targeted

00:05:16.560 constituencies and some of the constituencies they're simply wasting time you've targeted alberta

00:05:21.840 highwood for example conservatives always finish with a report around 70 or higher there and it's not

00:05:26.400 going to be changing there's no way a recall campaign will succeed there and it amounts to

00:05:30.800 nothing more than waste of time and basically harassment what these initiatives do accomplish

00:05:35.680 though is overload elections alberta the head of elections alberta asked for 14 million to deal with

00:05:39.920 this now we should have some questions about that too because that sounds rather high when you

00:05:43.360 consider the gondec recall effort cost under hundred thousand dollars for the city of calgary to deal with

00:05:47.680 but still these initiatives will be a pain in the ass for elections alberta to deal with even if they

00:05:51.200 greatly exaggerated the cost of them it has to be up to citizens in the end guys that's what it's

00:05:56.800 about so watch closely and report if you see a person petitioning in your area without an id badge

00:06:01.280 don't sign petitions out of politeness this is serious business of course if you really think

00:06:05.280 it's critical your mla must be recalled well it's your right to pursue it just stay within the rules

00:06:09.760 your direct democracy can be great it works fantastically in switzerland but the process must be

00:06:14.400 respected respected got to stand up and ensure unions don't kill the legislation as it's just getting

00:06:20.160 out of the gate guys it's uh sad but one thing unions hate democracy and it shows all right

00:06:26.240 well it's got me wound up today what else is happening out there we got our new senator dave

00:06:29.680 nailer to turn us up today yeah you got a little i'm sorry it's too long i know holy cow

00:06:34.320 eat the segment right up uh speaking of elections i hear you were one of the top issues at a recent

00:06:39.360 election uh on the six second reserve yeah i've been getting word about that from a fellow who lives

00:06:44.000 on there they're they're still quite upset with my trespassing uh case going on out there which now

00:06:49.520 the next core hearing is in january sometime it's just going to go on and on and on uh but uh yeah

00:06:55.600 the the chief uh on his reelection apparently uh has spoken on how he's going to crack down on fellows

00:07:00.320 like that cory morgan guy and keep them from exposing whatever happened with the 1.2 billion

00:07:04.800 dollars that they got recently exactly and where can people see your video again uh it's on youtube if

00:07:09.200 you search out cory morgan and then i got a lot of videos i put on there so if you just kind of scroll

00:07:13.280 through them you'll find one of them i think i called it a critical tour of the six second reserve or

00:07:16.960 a prairie reserve something like that yeah it's a good watch i've seen it yeah and you're welcome

00:07:20.960 for the plug i do appreciate it do you mind if i get on with the news now well sorry i don't mean to

00:07:25.760 distract there we go let's start in all places hong kong uh where there's a real life towering

00:07:31.120 inferno going on it's uh erupted involving like up to seven high-rise buildings uh saying 36 people

00:07:37.920 dead already and hundreds up to 300 missing so it's a real terrible scenes uh there in hong kong

00:07:44.560 uh the quebec government has introduced a bill to ban religious symbols and no more prayer rooms in

00:07:51.280 universities and uh restrictions on uh halal food and that pesky little thing called the notwithstanding

00:07:58.240 clause that's what they're going to use to uh to push it through yeah but it's a right when quebec does

00:08:03.120 it whenever it does it we're our species exactly exactly uh the big celebration of light fireworks

00:08:09.440 festival in vancouver is being cancelled uh hundreds of thousands of people go to that on a nightly

00:08:14.720 basis but apparently uh they're out of money so uh vancouver is now the city that fun forgot well yeah

00:08:22.080 people uh want to see it back reach into their pockets i guess there you go uh speaking of bc the

00:08:27.280 one bc leader dallas brody introduced a bill into the legislature yesterday banning all pride flags and

00:08:35.520 flags of all nations from bc public buildings uh kind of like what jeremy focus wants to do in calgary

00:08:42.000 uh but that that didn't pass uh first reading uh melanie joly remember this big stelantis deal 15

00:08:49.680 billion dollars from the liberals melanie joly the industry minister has been uh revealed she didn't

00:08:55.840 even read the contract well could she i mean there'd be really isn't really yeah there'd be some big words

00:09:01.840 in there but yeah i mean she's out out there defending the contract i mean 3 000 jobs gonna

00:09:07.680 be lost now but she's out there defending the contract and she hasn't even read it yeah uh

00:09:13.920 speaking of fake you remember that big uh press conference mark carney did in front of a

00:09:18.560 look like a home that was under construction uh to announce the canada homes building project turns out

00:09:24.080 that was uh all a scam fraud uh the home was fake it was just put up like the night before and right

00:09:30.960 after the press conference was over it was taken down at a cost of 30 000 uh dollars and uh our

00:09:38.160 energy expert dave winnick uh he's taking a look at the you know time's running out on venezuela and

00:09:43.680 maduro and he's going one way or the other as trump says the the easy way or the hard way uh but when

00:09:50.000 he goes that's going to be very bad news for alberta uh and the specifically the oil industry because all of

00:09:56.480 venezuela's heavy oil will be flowing into those uh refineries in the southern states and alberta

00:10:04.080 could be left on the outside looking in well it would seem one of the better ways to avoid that

00:10:08.240 trouble would be if we got a pipeline to a coast somewhere and we can actually send it to another

00:10:12.320 refinery i don't know if that's that's just radical thinking corey yeah i guess sorry it'll never happen

00:10:19.760 because the uh the natives are using yeah well i'm going to talk a little bit about that later too

00:10:24.000 but i'll admit you do it's a sad state of affairs and that sorry go ahead oh nothing are you all

00:10:30.800 packed for edmonton well that's i was gonna mention yeah we're carpooling together we are are you

00:12:08.720 things have really changed in alberta as far as involved politics go like agms even with the

00:12:15.680 governing party you know when we're talking back in the progressive conservative days i think big

00:12:19.440 ones were about 800 to a thousand people and that whole bar now is as i said five six thousand

00:12:25.760 showing up in red deer three thousand showing up in edmonton next year's is in calgary and it's

00:12:31.680 great to see people getting in and taking part but you know it's good to see people if they're going for

00:12:36.800 their first time too if they haven't gone to one because they don't necessarily know what they're

00:12:39.760 in for day one there's going to be a bit of speeches from some folks uh uh pursuing board

00:12:46.320 positions that's one of the things you as a member will get to vote on pick who's going to

00:12:49.600 sit on certain board positions in the party itself then that night that's where the western

00:12:54.320 standard has their big thing uh at the expo center there will be a hospitality suite derek really

00:12:59.840 blew the doors off it and red deer last year people get together it's just one big party

00:13:04.080 there's often a fair amount of cheap or free liquor for those who do indulge and then i get

00:13:09.280 to sit back and drink my diet coke and watch people over indulge but it's a good time part of it is the

00:13:13.520 social network and getting together with people face to face chatting working on those things then

00:13:18.320 the bleary-eyed hungover souls will get together on the saturday and sit through policy and constitutional

00:13:25.040 debates which can be pretty rough but it needs to be done the other thing you know as people go to

00:13:30.240 these agms you should keep in mind that it's still you're making your mark but the um the caucus

00:13:37.680 isn't bound by your policy decisions you know if it's in the party policy that's great but

00:13:42.560 caucus might vote otherwise later still it's the time for you as a member if you're a member of a

00:13:47.040 party i'm not but to get in there and uh let them know how you feel the party should be going

00:13:53.280 and what they should be doing when they're in there and it's your chance to meet some of the

00:13:56.560 mlas and other movers and shakers so uh be sure to come to the western standard hospitality suite

00:14:00.560 or wherever we are come say hi to dave and the rest of us we're going to be there for the weekend

00:14:05.040 and chances are there'll be a drink or two for those as i said who do indulge it's going to be a

00:14:09.440 lively one if nothing else so um let's see what else we were talking about yeah talking with uh

00:14:16.240 indigenous rights getting stuff to the coast getting pipelines you know that keeps coming up

00:14:20.160 tomorrow is supposed to be the the big announce announcement from premier smith and mark carney

00:14:25.520 of a memorandum of understanding to potentially possibly maybe kind of sorta get a pipeline

00:14:33.440 from alberta to the west coast and uh well it's kind of everybody's more into an i believe it when

00:14:40.240 i'll see it sort of situation with that one see carney's talking out of both sides of his mouth i guess

00:14:46.080 that's typical for a liberal i mean he's saying he's supportive of uh infrastructure he's saying he's

00:14:50.640 supportive of making canada less dependent on the united states in the future yet he won't

00:14:55.440 stand up and do his job as a prime minister and get these things done now this memorandum of

00:15:02.560 understanding if it doesn't at least clarify whether or not indigenous people have a veto or

00:15:09.680 david eb can stop this infrastructure i mean the consultation and respect in these negotiations is of

00:15:14.880 course important but if they can't clarify that guys it's not getting through it's just spinning

00:15:21.120 wheels and going through the motions either way i'll talk a little bit about that in uh more in

00:15:25.440 a little while i see our guest in the lobby there i've been looking forward to this this is warren

00:15:29.600 kinsella he's been a voice in canadian politics for a long time uh quite active back when the liberal

00:15:35.680 party was a different sort of party uh i saw it as a respectable liberal party i was a conservative at

00:15:41.360 the time but it was much different than what we look at today and he's been very outspoken on the

00:15:45.760 misinformation coming out from uh well just the world in general when it comes to the israel

00:15:51.280 conflict going on in the middle east and he's got a book coming up pretty soon called the hidden hand

00:15:56.080 the information war and the rise of anti-semitic propaganda so let's bring him in and have a

00:16:00.720 conversation on that hi uh warren thank you very much for joining us today thanks cory thanks for

00:16:04.960 having me so uh i mean i i guess i'll just start with the obvious question you know what what inspired

00:16:11.600 you to get this book in the works and and what do you feel really needs to be uh explained to people

00:16:16.960 and exposed and in what really is a much bigger information war than a lot of people seem to

00:16:21.120 realize well as you pointed out to um your audience just a moment ago you know my background i've worked

00:16:27.840 in politics for many years when the liberal party was a liberal party and um worked for chretien and ran his

00:16:36.800 war rooms so i know a little bit i think about um campaigns and how to how to spot one maybe that's

00:16:44.400 one of the only things i i learned from politics is how to spot a campaign so that the third week of

00:16:50.880 october 2023 after the terrible and horrific events of october 7th what i started to observe and this was

00:16:59.600 quarry this was before even israel entered gaza began their ground incursion into gaza so before

00:17:07.040 israel had done anything in respect of hamas um there were 2500 protests around the world using uh

00:17:17.520 identical signage using a identical chance and language um very organized organizers who clearly knew what

00:17:25.840 they were doing and it looked to me like a professional political campaign and i spoke to

00:17:32.160 friends i have on both the left and the right and all of them had the same view and say absolutely this

00:17:37.520 is a campaign so the the book i've written for random house called the hidden hand which you kindly

00:17:43.200 pointed out is about that campaign i've got a documentary coming out about the same subject called

00:17:49.440 the campaign and it's both of them are coming out in february and um the events of the past few days

00:17:55.920 have you know reaffirmed my belief that this is absolutely not organic this is not a coincidence

00:18:02.640 this is an organized global campaign against israel against jews and against western democracy

00:18:10.240 and i guess something to cover with a lot of people we hear uh you know speaking up on social media

00:18:14.880 and saying you know this isn't our problem this is over there this is israel we don't need to concern

00:18:20.320 ourselves with it but this is spilling over here even if a person doesn't care and i mean i was

00:18:25.520 mortified with what i saw when i went over there and mortified with what i saw before i went over

00:18:29.440 there but we can't afford to ignore this this is infiltrating our colleges this is infiltrating our

00:18:35.040 urban streets in canada the united states europe like this is a much broader thing than just

00:18:39.920 where we're seeing the the worst of the war in israel absolutely absolutely you know the

00:18:44.720 old cliche and like a lot of cliches is true first they come from the saturday people and then they

00:18:50.240 come for the sunday people and i'm an irish catholic i'm a church-going catholic and but i'm a zionist

00:18:57.520 because i believe that israel like taiwan like ukraine play a critical role in holding back the tide of

00:19:06.960 autocrats and dictatorship and oppression around the world so to me strategically it's critically

00:19:14.240 important that israel remains strong and remains a beacon of democracy in a seer sea of tyranny in the

00:19:21.520 middle east but you know what's become evident since october 7th is um there has been a confluence of

00:19:31.600 uh far left and marxist elements who are extreme and in some cases violent and also islamist uh jihadist

00:19:40.320 pro-hamas elements and they've come together in a bit of an unholy alliance to destabilize and to

00:19:48.400 delegitimize israel but also to destabilize western democracy i think a lot of people as you point out

00:19:55.600 have lulled themselves into thinking oh it's just about the jews it's just about them i don't need to

00:20:00.160 worry about it and that is not so that is not the case and what's become quite evident is that these

00:20:06.240 people are organizing against all of us and it's incumbent upon all of us to stand shoulder to

00:20:12.000 shoulder with our jewish brothers and sisters and protect them against what is a anti-semitic wave

00:20:18.480 but also protect western democracy and our way of life well and that that thinly veiled anti-semitism

00:20:25.040 you know i'd like to cloak the amount of hate even though it's so thinly veiled it's hard to hide but

00:20:29.040 to use the word zionist as a substitute for jew a lot of people i think don't necessarily even

00:20:33.520 understand what zionism sounds what it means i mean you know they've turned it into a term as if

00:20:38.000 it's some sort of extreme position i mean at its very core the bottom line is do you support israel's

00:20:43.120 right to exist if that's the case then to a degree you're a zionist and people have to understand the

00:20:47.760 opponents in this case want israel wiped off the map they don't want a state to state solution they

00:20:52.320 don't want to see actual peace they want nothing less than than the complete elimination of israel as

00:20:57.840 an independent state and now you raise an important point you know let's examine that word zionist

00:21:03.440 why am i a zionist um my daughter's indigenous my daughter is a citizen of the car cross target

00:21:10.880 first nation in the yukon and i believe that she has an she and uh the other members of that that band

00:21:19.600 have an inalienable right to the land that has been theirs you know for millennia um and she's

00:21:28.240 indigenous to that place and i support her uh in that just as i support jews you know that that's

00:21:35.600 what it means to be zionist it's believing the people who are indigenous to a certain place deserve

00:21:41.920 to be indigenous to that place and you know what the far left and what these jihadist elements have

00:21:49.920 done very successfully is equate zionism with racism and you know no less an authority than dr

00:21:57.760 martha luther king pointed out because he was a zionist as well is when you're talking about

00:22:02.960 anti-zionism you're really talking about racism when you say that you oppose zionism you're really an

00:22:10.080 anti-semite and that's no less an authority than dr king so you know i think that people really need to

00:22:16.480 look at what these terms mean it just simply means the jews have a homeland like everybody else does

00:22:23.840 and they're entitled to this tiny tiny piece of the binel east um and and that they deserve to be

00:22:30.640 able to defend themselves and you know that's all that it means to be a zionist so with this

00:22:37.120 misinformation and it's impacting elected officials i mean this is a big battle going on i i watched a

00:22:42.800 while back actually a documentary on the yom kippur war and it was funny how you could basically just

00:22:48.000 change the dates and see the international reaction to israel defending itself was exactly the same

00:22:53.360 within days of them being attacked israel defending itself and then the world all screaming you've got

00:22:58.400 to stop you've got to stop you've got to stop uh how how do you counter that that's what you're

00:23:04.560 working on that kind of getting to the soul of your book how do we counter the misinformation or

00:23:08.640 counter the narrative that that's really so so broken right now with this issue well golda meir

00:23:14.480 who was the original iron lady of politics who was uh the prime minister of israel at the time of the

00:23:20.000 yom kippur war you know said most memorably i'm not quoting her exactly but you know it's much better to

00:23:26.800 be a jew who is isolated and vilified than to be somebody who's dead and admired and you know i think that

00:23:34.560 is both of us have been to israel on missions for the media and we've seen that that they they regret

00:23:41.520 they are sad about the fact that so much of the world has turned against them for all kinds of

00:23:47.440 reasons that you and i can discuss but they are determined to survive and you know that is they're

00:23:54.480 right that that's enshrined in the the charter of the united nations no less is that a nation that is

00:24:00.400 under attack in the way that israel was on october 7th 2023 is entitled to defend themselves and you

00:24:07.680 know israel did not start that war the ceasefire that was in place was broken by hamas which is a

00:24:14.480 designated terrorist entity around the world they did that they killed 1200 men women children and babies

00:24:21.600 they kidnapped 251 people they sexually violated 200 israeli women and girls and they they injured

00:24:32.640 in some cases seriously grievously hundreds of other israelis and non-israelis on that day so israel

00:24:42.000 was entitled to respond to that in a measured way and i believe i'm not a military analyst but i believe

00:24:48.160 that they have responded in a measured and careful way uh against a urban warfare warfare is very

00:24:55.120 difficult as you know and i believe that israel has conducted itself with restraint and care yeah

00:25:02.000 and something that's very difficult in this both in the the war on the ground in israel and the war

00:25:07.280 i guess you could say in the airwaves with with communications which is what you're working on

00:25:12.320 because the enemy melds in with regular population whether it's on the ground in gaza

00:25:17.680 or whether it's in universities or in mosques throughout canada we do understand that most

00:25:22.560 people muslim people in canada have no interest in taking up terrorist acts and things

00:25:27.760 such as that but some among them are supporting this we're seeing fundraising charitable groups and

00:25:33.920 i'll put that in quotes things that are going over there uh which also gives well ammunition to

00:25:39.200 people who truly are very intolerant of everybody who's a darker than they prefer to see how you

00:25:44.800 carefully try to extract the extreme element from the moderates that exist i mean it's a very complicated

00:25:50.240 problem and the the you know the the constituencies that they um you raise an important point the

00:25:56.720 constituencies that they've been most successful with obviously uh unions uh so public unions uh not the

00:26:05.280 private ones uh academia um but most particularly the two demographics that they've been most successful

00:26:12.720 in getting over to this global anti-semitic anti-israel campaign has been young people uh gen z from about

00:26:22.400 18 to 24 and millennials from about the age of 25 to 38 and those two constituencies in canada in the united

00:26:31.920 states and in europe have been the target of this global propaganda campaign against jews and the jewish state

00:26:39.120 and the west and they've been very successful in bringing young people over to their side um really

00:26:46.720 by uh focusing on one theme you know for about 60 years the anti-defamation league of b'nai bryth has been

00:26:53.760 doing polling mainly in the united states but not exclusively and what it's the polling has always shown that if you

00:27:01.120 were concerned about racism you would also be concerned about anti-semitism and so they kind of moved on the

00:27:09.120 same track and about five or six years ago what we started to see is um concern and sympathy about

00:27:19.440 anti-semitism started to go like that with young people so they still professed to be concerned about

00:27:26.560 racism but on anti-semitism they started to articulate points of view that were frankly horrifying for

00:27:34.960 example 41 of young canadians state that they support hamas around the same figures state that they don't care

00:27:45.520 if jews either in israel or in canada are attacked for being jewish and so when i've done focus groups for our

00:27:55.680 documentary we've done and also for the book that i've written lay head in hand and you know i've

00:28:01.280 said to these kids like some of the things you're saying and doing are anti-semitic don't you don't

00:28:08.560 you see that and they'll say to you cory well no i'm not being anti-semitic i'm being opposed to racism

00:28:15.360 i'm fighting racism they truly believe and those of us been to israel you know just shake our heads

00:28:22.080 when we hear this they truly believe that israel is a fascist white supremacist apartheid state in the

00:28:29.200 way that apartheid south africa once was and you know those of us who have been there know you have

00:28:35.280 black kids are in the idf and women in positions of authority and and arabs in the knesset in the

00:28:41.440 judiciary and the idf and muslims as well but the the bad guys with this propaganda campaign

00:28:49.600 have been most successful for one reason they have depicted israel as an apartheid white supremacist

00:28:56.720 state when it is not it is not but that's what's convinced so many of these young people to come out

00:29:03.120 and do what they say is opposing racism yeah and it just astounds me because so many young people today

00:29:09.120 are very socially liberal uh one of the things that was most striking to me one night in tel aviv was

00:29:14.240 going out and people were out and having a good time and there was a couple of men getting quite

00:29:17.920 affectionate with each other on a bench and good for them i almost would want to take a picture but

00:29:22.080 that'd be quite a violation of privacy but that's the last bastion the only bastion of that sort of

00:29:28.160 freedom in the entire middle east like maybe if some of our north american young people would

00:29:32.000 understand it if you want to protect some rights that that's a a spot that really needs it it's the

00:29:37.520 only liberal democracy out there but it seems to be lost on them but this is the problem this is the

00:29:42.640 problem they because if you dig down into the data why do they think so you know south africa and israel

00:29:50.560 are the same thing why do they think that they're not being anti-semitic it's because of this if you

00:29:56.880 look at the data in canada in the united states and in europe young people so gen z and millennials

00:30:03.680 are not receiving information from magazines like yours or newspapers like mine they're receiving it from

00:30:10.560 online sources and that's where the bad guys have gone that's where this pro-hamas anti-israel

00:30:16.880 anti-semitic campaign has gone is they like cory they absolutely dominate online for every pro-israel

00:30:26.000 message that's out there qualitatively quantitatively rather there's about 90 messages opposing that we

00:30:34.480 are those of us who support israel and support the jewish people are being absolutely massacred

00:30:41.360 online and frankly some of it we're to blame for we've allowed this to happen we've not been fighting

00:30:48.080 back and the bad guys backed by money from qatar and as you pointed out a minute ago from these far-left

00:30:56.080 ngos and non-profits and charities there's this real alphabet soup of menace that's out there they

00:31:05.120 are financing this online effort where on tick tock on x on meta on all of the platforms we are getting

00:31:13.280 absolutely massacred and israel has you know even though israel is the most technologically advanced

00:31:18.400 nation in the world in many respects israel has been terrible about telling its own story you know you

00:31:24.320 saw a young gay couple in in tel aviv i've seen the same thing and i had the same reaction is you know

00:31:30.320 we're both canadian guys and israel going geez i got to show this to the world and the question you

00:31:35.760 got to ask yourself is why isn't israel showing this to the world and so you know part of the the war

00:31:43.440 that we're in here and this is going to go on for some time is israel needs to a better job of telling

00:31:49.120 its story and not just rely on guys like you and me no true enough and uh hopefully they can start

00:31:55.200 moving in that direction well the time's gone quickly it's just so much it can be covered in it

00:31:58.800 i'm really looking forward to your documentary and your book before i let you go where can people

00:32:02.800 pre-order and where are they going to find these when they come out the book is called the hidden

00:32:06.720 hands published by random house and you can get it indigo and chapters and all of that it's on my

00:32:11.920 social media if you want to click there and the documentary uh we are i'm not allowed to say which

00:32:17.520 film festival is going to be releasing it but it'll be in europe and also in the month of february

00:32:23.280 so both the documentary called the campaign and the book called the hidden hand will be out and

00:32:27.760 available in february but you can pre-order the book now excellent well thank you for your work on

00:32:33.040 that and for coming on to talk about it today and well just for being a few of us pushing back

00:32:36.960 against what you've identified properly as an actual organized information campaign going on i mean

00:32:41.840 if we don't push back they will win my pleasure thanks so much for having me on right thank you

00:32:47.520 so yes guys check it out one more time you know you can pre-order and that helps with these things

00:32:51.920 when a book is coming out it is the hidden hand the information war and the rise of anti-semitic

00:32:57.440 propaganda and warren kinsella and uh this uh it really was eye-opening as i said when i'm over there i i i

00:33:06.160 still can't wrap my head around a lot of it i mean again israel's imperfect i understand that but uh it's uh

00:33:14.560 if you're looking to be uh civilized if you're looking at democracy if you're looking at freedoms

00:33:19.760 if you're looking at rights they are a world ahead of every country that surrounds them and i look at

00:33:25.920 these far left it's the usual ones protesting for trans rights and this and that and everything

00:33:32.400 yet they support wiping out the one and only little spot in the whole middle east

00:33:37.600 that provides the rights to minorities and people uh that they claim to support uh as warren said then

00:33:45.520 that that's really the result of a very effective information campaign and you know what i i wanted

00:33:51.440 to talk more because this campaign's been going on well before october 7th it's just that really brought

00:33:56.480 it to a head and what is interesting as he said was look how quickly the anti-israel protests sprung up

00:34:03.440 after october 7th i mean a lot of people are making the excuse to say well it's because of

00:34:07.840 israel's heavy-handed response guys within two weeks they were still barely responding yet to the

00:34:12.720 terror attack they were just warming up yet the protests were already out there screaming and

00:34:17.360 yelling and demanding death to israel and that israel stand down and israel surrender and israel just

00:34:22.240 leave their hostages in the hands of those monsters i don't understand it uh if you're on social

00:34:28.800 media and you need to look at those things and i gotta admit i've seen less and less because i'm on x

00:34:32.400 you know that's one of the prominent areas i communicate on online and i would put things

00:34:37.440 up anything even pro-israel and oh i get the barrage of people going bananas on me and uh the

00:34:44.000 interesting thing is how many and i block like crazy because i i don't have time for them i mean

00:34:48.320 you know it's hard what's them i guess operate uncountered i don't know but i can't have them

00:34:52.480 polluting my discussion all the time but the amount that have a little hammer and sickle in their

00:34:57.840 profile they really do we're not even talking about the guys who say oh i just support marxism the

00:35:02.000 classic idea of communism that sort of thing not the actual messed up evil social uh or soviet system

00:35:08.160 no they are supporting even the soviet system these are hardcore extremists and they're tied in as warren

00:35:14.800 said with anti-western that's what's got to be clear clarified in this i mean the ones in qatar

00:35:22.320 the ones funding this the extreme is limits they just want to disrupt they want to see this spread

00:35:29.120 uh you know i put a video on my own channel recently just of stuff that i saw when i was over

00:35:35.280 at the nova festival site and things like that what i also wanted to point out to people was just that

00:35:38.560 clearly all of the stuff the kibbutz in the nova music festival all that stuff they targeted none of

00:35:44.400 it was military like this isn't a regular war they didn't go after military bases they didn't go after

00:35:49.440 military members they targeted the most vulnerable citizens they could and they did the most horrific

00:35:55.760 things they possibly could do to them they did you know murder the children rape the women as warren

00:36:00.800 was pointing out and and and launch thousands of rockets into residential areas but why i mean

00:36:06.960 they aren't completely stupid they're crazy they're extreme they're murderous but they aren't stupid

00:36:11.040 what did they have in mind the reality is they wanted to make a larger war they were hoping that israel's

00:36:19.280 response would be harsh enough that suddenly saudi egypt jordan syria all the rest would jump in and

00:36:26.800 finally come in and eliminate israel from the world and it's uh not not gonna happen there's something

00:36:35.040 some people got to realize too israel's not going anywhere not leaving get over it and i know there's

00:36:39.360 some right-wing lunatics conspiracy theorists and anti-jewish nut bars and some of them follow my

00:36:45.120 stuff and they comment in it but they're just a loud minority as are the islamists it's funny

00:36:53.520 with uh what was it a great uh uh what is that babylon b i believe it was but it showed a you

00:37:00.880 know a cartoon and it's satire of course but it was a story saying you know uh neo-nazi and uh you know

00:37:08.080 pro-palestine person get together and can't find anything to argue about they really are just opposite

00:37:13.760 sides of the same coin but they do have an outsized influence on social media they do have a large

00:37:21.120 voice uh as as warren said israel sort of let him take over the narrative and it's got to be pushed

00:37:27.840 back by them not just us this is my perspective uh pointing out they screamed death to canada and

00:37:33.040 the usa too yes yes that's part of the point that you know we kind of started this out don't think

00:37:37.840 they're gonna stop there if israel was gone do you think those guys are gonna stop no they hate the

00:37:45.440 western world they're insane they're extreme they're they're islamist nutcases how do we deal

00:37:52.240 with that i don't know but we can't pretend it's problem that only impacts things over there it will

00:38:00.560 come over here it already is and it's in our universities and such and it's it's it's uh frightening

00:38:07.360 now you know we're gonna see some interesting stuff we'll go a little more broad though with

00:38:10.640 quebec of course uh they're expanding you know dave mentioned that their secularism law and they're

00:38:16.080 gonna use the uh and notwithstanding yet again and uh you know this is interesting i'm kind of mixed on

00:38:23.760 it right but it's only in public areas like publicly owned okay not uh out in general and so on but

00:38:30.400 they're gonna ban prayer rooms and public institutions and colleges and universities they're gonna ban

00:38:35.600 full face coverings like the niqab now see this is hard right because if people have rights and even

00:38:42.080 if let's face it forcing a woman to dress all in black with a little eye slit there and live like that

00:38:49.440 is vile it's disgusting it's it's it's it's a thousand year old crap it's medieval but if a woman

00:39:00.480 willingly does so she has the right to do it where's the government's role in telling somebody

00:39:05.120 what they can wear what they can't you see that's hard and the woman of course she's gonna say oh

00:39:09.360 i'm willing well you know why because they'll beat the hell out of her if she takes it off

00:39:13.680 we have honor killings that happen in north america with extremists

00:39:17.520 and quebec isn't stopping uh women to be covered up in bed sheets and all that crap you know that

00:39:22.720 primitive junk that they do uh with islam uh in general but they're doing it in their own

00:39:28.320 institutions government-owned institutions universities colleges saying you know what

00:39:32.080 you want to practice that extreme stuff you're not doing it on government property or on the

00:39:35.040 government payroll uh the islamists are gonna be upset with that things i'll give to quebec quebec

00:39:42.720 doesn't beat around the bush quebec drives us nuts quite often as as westerners that's for sure but

00:39:48.000 you know what they just say we're gonna do this and what are you gonna do about it and alberta really

00:39:52.720 us to be doing a lot more of that themselves ourselves and uh it's uh gonna be quite something

00:40:00.960 to see their response to that but the funny thing is the canadian double standard too you you can bet

00:40:04.720 they're not going to talk about repealing the notwithstanding clause when quebec uses it for

00:40:08.000 its what umpteenth time but boy they sure all go bananas when alberta does right but speaking of

00:40:13.520 double standard hypocrisy it's funny watching david eby going bananas right so he's saying absolutely

00:40:18.400 there's no way a pipeline is ever coming through bc to the coast not another one nope but he's

00:40:22.560 also having a temper tantrum that's the best way to put it watch this guy's press conferences he's

00:40:26.560 like a six-year-old a big he's tall too you know six foot something so it's like a giant overgrown

00:40:31.440 six-year-old but he's furious because saskatchewan is going to be exporting its potash which is a huge

00:40:38.400 resource from western canada through a shipping terminal in washington well yeah we've got a premier

00:40:45.920 on the west coast who fights every bit of a resource development coming from his east side

00:40:50.080 why would he be shocked he'd be shocked when provinces start bypassing him and getting back

00:40:56.800 to authority see canada is supposed to be a federation and uh you know uh here's a commenter

00:41:05.440 maverro saying uh you know i think carney's relying on eb to get in the way well that's fine but we got

00:41:10.640 to hold carney's feet to the fire then because if we are a federation that's the point of the whole

00:41:18.000 thing right it's an agreement a contract the constitution it means there has to be some degree

00:41:25.360 of centralized authority on some things one of which is interprovincial infrastructure

00:41:32.400 a province can't block a highway can't block a railroad and can't block a pipeline that's federal

00:41:39.600 jurisdiction because if you can't have the federal government say that's just the way it goes it's

00:41:45.520 going through then you aren't a federation anymore so carney grow some testes and be a prime minister

00:41:54.880 and lay down the law and say this thing is getting done or well we know the option i want to see

00:42:02.400 it's independence time you know we're looking at a referendum coming up one way or another

00:42:07.920 and if we are blockaded still with mealy mouth weasel words from carney and gang

00:42:14.000 then what's the point of staying you know people say you'd be landlocked we already are

00:42:20.880 have a look uh you know dj darkrobe commenter again saying alberto never get a pipeline under

00:42:26.880 the current federation well yeah probably not so let's change the deal and then if we're out of

00:42:34.320 the federation you want to know how fast you get the pipeline because then you say you know what

00:42:38.880 we're gonna put a very uh oppressive border crossing with bc with your products coming

00:42:44.960 across us to the rest of canada or the united states through that rail line and through those roads

00:42:48.960 there so let's talk and i don't think we'd have to talk too long because we would realize that we have

00:42:55.840 to allow each other's goods to get back and forth across our jurisdictions to get things done we

00:43:00.640 would do what the federal government's refusing to do but it's not going to happen overnight uh eight

00:43:06.800 six because yeah some other people saying you know smith needs to jump on independence and i am with this

00:43:10.720 commenter it's not smith's job to jump on the independence bandwagon if we split the vote we get

00:43:13.920 mayor ninchi we need to support her okay so yes no i'm kind of in a way i think it's alberton's job to

00:43:20.720 get on the independence bandwagon yes fully smith's no she wasn't elected on that

00:43:26.160 and it is too divisive a subject for her to take on as a premier her job is to give us the mechanism

00:43:33.600 give us the referendum leave it to albertans let's have that discussion for a year let's have an

00:43:38.320 independence campaign let's have the campaign going on while these negotiations go on as to whether or

00:43:45.920 not we're allowed to actually be a federation or not but yeah that's one of the things i wanted to
