Summary

Join us as we take a look at the events taking place in the streets of Calgary, Alberta on the day of the General Strike. Dr. Vipond is joined by counter-protester with a bullhorn, and a group of anti-police protesters.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Well, my first hit from the general strike that Dr. Vipond has been trying to bring together.
00:00:15.020 50, 60 people so far, perhaps one counter-processor, a few sheriffs.
00:00:20.200 Something that's refreshing, not as much of the mainstream media.
00:00:23.300 Perhaps they realize that they won't be able to make much of this,
00:00:27.800 so they probably just won't report on it.
00:00:29.480 They'll take Dr. Vipond's word that there have been hundreds and hundreds of people here.
00:00:33.840 They're making noise.
00:00:35.180 They're trying to shout down a counter-protester who's here with a loudspeaker right now.
00:00:42.400 And now there's some people from Antifa here, it appears.
00:00:46.500 Let's see what we got.
00:00:47.480 So why Antifa has anything to do with this gathering is interesting to know.
00:00:59.740 And it appears that Antifa shops at Safeway.
00:01:10.420 I'm not quite sure what the fella's saying on the loudspeaker,
00:01:15.000 but they're trying their very hardest to drown him out, and the sheriff is watching him.
00:01:18.520 Again, Dr. Vipond in his scrubs, as this is indeed political theater.
00:01:28.980 Okay, we're going to put the mask on now,
00:01:30.820 though he's been talking two feet from a person for some time already.
00:01:33.860 He's very flexible with that mask when he's going to wear it and when he's not going to.
00:01:39.680 But, well, we'll see how this goes.
00:01:42.060 I think we've got some more counter-protesters sitting up.
00:01:45.040 Either way, the general strike doesn't seem to be coming along.
00:01:48.120 It just seems to be more of a general gong show.
00:01:52.420 The sheriffs, again, are watching the gentleman who has the bullhorn,
00:01:57.600 and the Antifa guys are trying to follow him around.
00:02:04.120 Lively days in Calgary.
00:02:05.440 Either way, I don't think this is the sort of thing we're going to see
00:02:07.400 the Kenney government brought to its knees by any time soon.
00:02:16.600 Looks like Kent Hare is making an appearance.
00:02:18.980 Perhaps he's got some political aspirations still.
00:02:22.780 He's been unemployed for some time, I guess, as far as that goes.
00:02:28.140 Dressed in his liberal red, though.
00:02:30.440 So we'll see what he has to say.
00:02:33.300 I think there's been some municipal candidates coming around as well.
00:02:36.800 You know, everybody's got to try and show how much they care.
00:02:40.000 Virtue signal at a large gathering.
00:02:41.780 Now there's other noises being made by the union protesters.
00:02:53.440 The Antifa guys, I guess, have a siren speaker now.
00:02:57.260 And I believe these guys are setting up a speaker to disrupt the proceedings as well.
00:03:08.960 This might turn interesting.
00:03:11.040 Again, I don't think it's a good organized event going on here,
00:03:15.200 or, you know, seeing some groundswell of public opposition to health measures from Dr. Hinshaw.
00:03:21.420 But we're seeing the fringe certainly coming out in droves today.
00:03:26.000 So it should be noted, this is, as Dr. Vipond is saying, the seventh protest.
00:03:53.440 I wonder if they'll note that nobody has died of COVID in Alberta in seven days now.
00:04:02.080 We've acknowledged that he's a colonial.
00:04:05.340 Oh, we have Black Lives Matter here with their fuck the police sign, it appears she has.
00:04:11.600 So that's adding some class and quality to the people supporting Dr. Vipond today.
00:04:16.940 That flag there, of course, I believe that's QP or AUPE.
00:04:20.180 This is just a union gathering of a handful of people.
00:04:24.560 More of the same.
00:04:26.040 But I'm glad we can be here to report on it so there's no confusion about what this really was.
00:04:31.440 Of course, we've got a Protect Alberta Education signs out there too,
00:04:36.080 which has absolutely nothing to do with this.
00:04:39.080 But, of course, solidarity forever, as this is really just a union gathering.
00:04:43.240 You know, take your stock signs from home and try and make it look like a larger turnout.
00:04:52.520 And Dr. Vipond telling people to wear masks.
00:04:56.720 Actually, it's one of the Black Lives Matters representatives that he's calling out.
00:05:00.840 There's some of the irony when the far left starts biting at each other.
00:05:05.220 Okay, now we're getting a physical altercation.
00:05:19.320 Looks like the Antifa people have attacked the gentleman who had the bullhorn.
00:05:23.860 The police are now intervening.
00:05:25.720 I'll remind people that on Tuesday, we could have called out of society.
00:05:32.280 They're trying to separate the individuals.
00:05:40.800 They're trying to block counter-protesters.
00:05:44.300 Antifa is coming up on him.
00:05:46.160 Okay, one of the counter-protesters is hooking up a microphone.
00:05:55.280 I don't imagine this is going to go well.
00:05:57.060 I'm providing you with this platform.
00:05:59.500 So, please come up.
00:06:01.300 Patric over here has a cookbook.
00:06:03.340 He's taking me.
00:06:05.260 One, two.
00:06:06.180 Yeah, the wire.
00:06:07.980 Yeah, we know what you're talking about.
00:06:09.900 We've got the statistics.
00:06:12.220 We know how many people are dying from the vaccine.
00:06:14.680 We've got the numbers.
00:06:17.500 All over the world, the doctors are being suppressed.
00:06:20.940 Doctors are being suppressed.
00:06:22.960 Black Lives Matter is speaking.
00:06:24.520 We're killing people around the world.
00:06:26.920 We're killing people around the world.
00:06:31.360 We're killing people around the world.
00:06:33.840 I also used to work for Progress Alberta.
00:06:36.260 I was in this city begging you to not work, to not vote for people.
00:06:44.680 But here we are.
00:06:45.540 They're being lied to.
00:06:46.660 You can just look out.
00:06:47.500 You can just look out.
00:06:47.620 You can just look out.
00:06:48.120 You can just look out.
00:06:48.500 You can just look out.
00:06:49.060 That's important.
00:06:49.940 Make noise.
00:06:53.540 If we're going to be here about health,
00:06:55.120 and we're going to talk about air,
00:06:56.480 and that means really good ventilation systems are coming in.
00:07:00.640 In some places, it's as simple as opening a window or door.
00:07:03.140 But we believe it or not, some of our schools actually have the windows sealed shut with screws.
00:07:09.120 We can't actually get in there.
00:07:10.700 So we need to have measures in place to protect not only our schools,
00:07:15.300 but all of our public buildings.
00:07:16.900 We need to take the reasons we're going to go to places that do not have adequate victimization.
00:07:21.440 We need to keep the same measures.
00:07:23.060 I can't hear anything with all the lunatics around.
00:07:26.960 Who's she yelling liar at?
00:07:28.280 Everybody, I think.
00:07:29.240 I want a little bit of a school series here.
00:07:33.320 Because Craig wants to talk about this.
00:07:36.800 Go let them wear masks.
00:07:38.200 It's going to kill them.
00:07:39.840 Please, kids, take off your masks.
00:07:41.920 Be smart.
00:07:42.640 Don't let your parents lie you.
00:07:44.500 Let them make them do the research.
00:07:46.920 Don't believe the teachers.
00:07:48.400 The teachers don't know science.
00:07:50.500 They're words.
00:07:52.260 They're regurgitators.
00:07:53.460 There.
00:07:53.800 There is a guy with a lot of info.
00:07:55.560 Anybody who wants them.
00:07:57.560 Come on up.
00:07:59.000 Here are vegetarians with an indoctrination program that they're living from the entire
00:08:03.860 medical community.
00:08:05.240 Some scientists put your own time to complain, and I ask you a simple question.
00:08:09.360 How big is the size of the virus, and how big is the core of her mouth?
00:08:12.900 She couldn't answer that question.
00:08:14.820 You can not stop a 100 nanometer-sized particle wearing a face duct with a 30,000 nanometer-sized
00:08:21.100 hole.
00:08:21.820 Any hundred boxes go right through that face duct.
00:08:24.060 They won't even touch on the mix.
00:08:25.320 If you guys think that this Delta variant is real, you're unscientific, you're unknowledgeable.
00:08:36.240 The most face mask country in the world has been Japan.
00:08:41.020 They had an outbreak just before the Olympics, and they've been wearing face masks for 10
00:08:46.600 to 20 years.
00:08:47.520 Guys, think about it.
00:08:48.440 Okay, things seem to be winding up here.
00:08:51.980 The anti-vax gang are tireless.
00:08:55.840 They're just hollering on their loudspeakers.
00:08:58.820 They won't give up.
00:08:59.580 The rest of Vipon's small group have left.
00:09:03.740 Police are escorting them out.
00:09:05.480 It seems to be there's two groups of anti-vaxxers here trying to disrupt things.
00:09:08.940 There was a few tussles here and there.
00:09:11.180 It really shows what this has devolved to, though.
00:09:14.080 It's a waste of time.
00:09:15.880 It's the extremists on each side.
00:09:17.580 Dr. Vipon's supposed general strike supposedly bringing out the public.
00:09:21.660 This is day seven of this.
00:09:23.180 He had perhaps 100 people here.
00:09:25.340 I guess it's something, but it's not the groundswell.
00:09:28.020 After seven days, you'd expect to see a little more of that.
00:09:30.640 With these guys coming out with their loudspeakers to try and shout them down and, you know,
00:09:35.960 infringe on Vipon's ability to demonstrate, I can't support that either.
00:09:39.560 But it brings memories of back when the anti-racist action group and, you know,
00:09:46.420 Sons of Odin or whatever used to clash every year on the streets.
00:09:48.980 You'd just look at all of them yelling at each other and really had little use for any of them.
00:09:55.340 They're all still shouting at each other in the background.
00:09:58.060 But, you know, we're going to see what happens with the reopening.
00:10:01.200 We're going to see what happens with time passing.
00:10:05.220 Kenny doesn't seem to be ready to back down.
00:10:06.700 There's definitely not a groundswell of people coming out in opposition,
00:10:10.020 even though the media is constantly reporting on that.
00:10:11.720 They're constantly saying there's protests every day.
00:10:14.440 Well, this is what the protests are.
00:10:15.880 This is the extreme.
00:10:17.080 This is a handful of them on both sides.
00:10:19.780 They've got feedback issues now going on.
00:10:21.960 And there's as many police here as protesters, I believe.
00:10:26.820 So, either way, we'll see what resolves itself.
00:10:31.060 You know, Dr. Vipon, they had Black Lives Matter down here,
00:10:34.720 and they were holding a sign up saying, fuck the police.
00:10:37.300 Quite classy.
00:10:38.360 And she delivered, as she was a speaker, a profanity-laced rant.
00:10:42.600 Hey, I'm not beyond profanities as well.
00:10:44.680 But when public speaking in front of a large crowd full of children, I'm not prone to it.
00:10:47.540 But, again, it's a demonstration of how extreme the individuals we're dealing with are here.
00:10:52.940 This isn't run-of-the-mill people.
00:10:54.480 This isn't Albertans standing up.
00:10:55.900 This isn't a groundswell.
00:10:57.240 This is all the extremists collecting on one spot.
00:11:00.020 Day after day, we'll see.
00:11:01.420 I mean, Vipon says he's going to keep doing this.
00:11:03.420 I've got a feeling he won't be doing it much longer.
00:11:05.120 With two groups of counter-protesters yelling on bullhorns and speakers,
00:11:09.180 and I couldn't make out most of what the speakers were saying, though most of it was B.S.
00:11:14.140 The union folks will go back, I guess, to their collective unions and work on things from there.
00:11:20.160 But, again, you know, contrary to reports from the news and everything,
00:11:22.620 there's no groundswell of protest against the reopening.
00:11:27.060 There's no public will to get out to the streets.
00:11:30.240 There's no general strike on the way.
00:11:31.780 There's just the usual suspects on the far left and the usual anti-vax suspects hollering back there,
00:11:38.680 and really nothing is being accomplished out of it.
00:11:41.280 I guess at least, you know, aside from some scuffles, it looks like one guy might have been charged.
00:11:45.580 No serious violence or problems.
