Lots of big news happening this morning, Corey.
00:00:02.780
The biggest is actually south of the border, where, as expected, the U.S. Supreme Court
00:00:07.800
overruled Roe v. Wade, making it illegal to have an abortion now in 26 separate U.S. states.
00:00:20.180
Expect huge protests on both sides of this issue.
00:00:24.300
Prime Minister Trudeau has jumped in already, calling it a horrific decision,
00:00:30.480
and he says he'll protect Canadian women's rights to be able to access abortion.
00:00:37.120
We've got another good story from Jonathan Bradley in Ontario,
00:00:40.860
where a top Canadian Hindu official has been caught on camera,
00:00:46.820
basically calling for the murder of Muslim terrorists in and around Canada
00:00:58.280
And you go on there, and you can watch them make them not live, but in video.
00:01:05.700
Block leader Blanchette has jumped in on the passport crisis, we'll call it,
00:01:11.920
across the country, lineups that go on for days.
00:01:17.040
And he was apparently told that security officials in Quebec offices
00:01:21.980
aren't even allowing people in the lineup to talk to the media.
00:01:25.960
And he said, quote, what the hell is that, and what is this country coming to?
00:01:30.280
Speaking of Quebec, it's St. John Baptiste Day down there,
00:01:34.640
so we do have some viewers in Quebec, so I'll wish them a happy day.
00:01:38.680
Their premier, Legault, held a press conference yesterday
00:01:43.940
saying that multiculturalism is a threat to his province,
00:01:48.400
and people need to, you know, he doesn't mind immigrants coming in
00:02:02.020
not very happy with the actions of Michelle Rempel-Garner.
00:02:05.580
Apparently there's talk about trying to remove her from caucus.
00:02:16.900
We've got an interview with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau,
00:02:20.460
in which he says the unvaccinated got exactly what they deserved in the country,
00:02:25.160
and that they didn't have the right to put lives of co-workers
00:02:30.920
And he would bring in those type of restrictions again in a heartbeat.
00:02:37.560
And work on the Trans Mountain expansion has been shut down again
00:02:42.420
because they found a woodpecker nest somewhere nearby.
00:02:49.600
Got to let the hummingbirds nest in peace, Corey.
00:02:53.080
Yeah, well, with any luck, our great-great-grandchildren may see that line reach completion,
00:03:05.940
Well, I'm sure the woodpeckers are happy for it.
00:03:08.440
You know, I mean, it would be tragic, tragic if they had to move that nest 10 feet.
00:03:14.860
My parents' backyard in B.C. gets them quite often,
00:03:21.580
But, yeah, pick up the nest, move it 10 feet, all is good.
00:03:29.060
But thanks for giving us the update on it, Dave,
00:03:31.840
and looking forward to seeing what else comes out of there.
