Ezra Levant exposes Canada’s double standard as pro-Hamas protesters stormed Toronto events with Trudeau cabinet ministers present, chanting "FUCK Canada" and "Allah Akbar," while police ignored them. Despite 450 UNRWA staff linked to Hamas—including October 7th attackers—Canada’s Ahmed Hassan continues funding the agency, enabling terrorist exploitation of aid programs. Liberal MPs like Housefather and Ben-Diane face accusations of selective anti-Semitism responses while supporting Trudeau’s policies. Ireland’s migration crisis and backlash against hate speech laws mirror Canada’s, raising questions about globalist priorities over national security, with Trudeau’s censorship push framed as a preemptive power grab.

When you physically attack people, well, I mean, they called the January 6th meandering.
They call that a riot.
They call that an insurrection.
What do you call it when these pro-Hamas types shut down public events, shut down streets, block Jews from going into Jewish buildings?
I think that's got to be a January 6th insurrection or more.
That's what my show is about today.
I'd like you to see it in video form too.
It's really the footage that counts.

I really want you to see it with your own eyes.
I want you to see the cowardice of the police who just let these guys go.
Rebelnewsplus.com, eight bucks a month.
And you know, we live off that money because we don't take any money from the government.
All right, here's today's podcast.
Pro-Hamas protesters swarm Jewish synagogues and schools and the bizarre self-hating Jews who support the liberals.
it's march 6th and this is the s for la vance show shame on you you censorious bug i don't know uh I think it's mayhem, total mayhem.
Here's an event in Toronto, a fundraiser.
I think it was Yaara Sachs, a Trudeau cabinet minister from Toronto, with Christia Freeland, the deputy prime minister.
They were having a fundraising event at a fancy restaurant, and they were swarmed, not by thousands, not even by hundreds, but I think by dozens of pro-Hamas activists, some of whom, of course, are foreign nationals who I believe should be deported immediately if they're engaging in hate marches in Canada.
I mean, go back and do that where you came from.
That's not the Canadian way.
But if they're Canadian citizens, I think that they should be denounced.
That's just my view, but whatever it is, there were dozens of them.
Just take a look at that.
They were blocking the entrance to people getting in, just like they blocked the entrance when Justin Trudeau and the Italian prime minister, Giorgio Maloney, had a meeting about a week ago, and police were useless.
Take a look.
IOS, you're all the same.
TBS, KKK, IOS, you're all the same.
Excuse me, officer.
I'm going to the restaurant.
Can I get through her?
Can everyone just move to the side?
Just move to the side though, just let him pull.
Okay, just let him pull.
No justice, no peace.
Sorry, no peace.
Shut it down.
Shut it down.
We don't get it.
Shut it down.
The cop.
Hey, guys, can you, Teehee, please move?
And of course, they don't move.
I'm not quite sure where these timid vegetarian police were during the lockdowns, during the pandemic, when they had batons, when they shot our reporter, our reporter, Alexa Lavoisier, with a riot gun and hit her with sticks, when they threw Tamara Leach in jail without a trial for 49 days.
Where were these timid, useless cops back then?
Teehee, can you guys please move?
No?
Okay.
Just absolutely useless.
Here's some more footage from it.
Here's some old Jewish guy who just wanted to get in, but sorry.
No Jews allowed.
My right to go in.
I would like to go in.
Genocide on my starfield.
You don't want to be.
Maybe I'm going to say something to them.
We're going to go to the bathroom.
Here's another guy.
I understand this guy, some senior liberal organizer, wanted to get in.
They pushed him around, and it sounds like they physically assaulted his wife, too, repelled them from the event.
Cops are right there.
Of course, they didn't do a thing.
Take a look.
Don't let him in, don't let him in, don't let him in.
Don't touch my wife.
I don't give a chance.
You're a fucking wife!
Angie, your hands on me.
Get your hand up.
Yeah, so that's Toronto, of course.
I'm just surprised that Toronto police didn't bring the protesters hot coffee like they did when the Hamas protesters blocked that bridge in the Jewish community on the 401 Highway and Avenue Road.
Do you remember this footage?
They're literally blocking a road.
There was no military or political or diplomatic nature to this road.
It was just a Jewish neighborhood.
So Hamas thought they would block the Jews.
Remember this?
The cops bringing them hot coffee?
Take a look.
Okay, I'll just ask them.
Sorry, it's nothing with the jihad.
Yeah, that's Toronto's police.
There's Toronto, and Montreal was even worse, if you can believe it.
Here they are chanting, Allah Akbar, at a Jewish school?
Sure, why not?
I mean, Jewish schools and synagogues in Montreal have been shot at and have had Molotov cocktails, attempted firebombings.
Here's some footage from a Jewish synagogue, just a synagogue.
There's no political aspect to it.
It's a very old synagogue.
It's the site of a protest, a pro-Hamas protest.
You can see some Jews there with the Israeli flags, and I think there's some Canadian flags too.
And they're singing, O Canada.
And then you have the Hamas protesters chanting Free Palestine and FUCK Canada.
Yeah, and this is organized, of course.
This is funded and financed.
Who brings a loudspeaker to a house of worship, a Jewish synagogue, a Christian church, a mosque, whatever, to shout insults at them.
I mean, don't think for a second that this is just about Israel.
It's just raw hatred of Jews.
Take a look.
This continued on from the day into the night.
Here's a Jewish community building in Montreal.
Every single doorway was blocked.
Again, not to a restaurant with a political fundraiser, but just the Jewish community.
That's been going on for days, but really it's been going on for weeks and months.
Now, one Jewish lawyer from a Jewish law firm went to court and managed to get a restraining order.
And here's some Jewish guy on Twitter cheering about it.
Okay, listen, congratulations.
Proudly Keeping People Safe00:05:09
You managed to get a judge to sign a piece of paper saying don't.
It's just a piece of paper.
We have other things in Canada that apparently are just a piece of paper, like our criminal code or city bylaws.
And if the police or prosecutors or judges won't enforce them, they're just a piece of paper.
And that's what's happening.
You have a two-tier justice system more and more evident.
The same laws, the same criminal code is in effect for the truckers and for anti-vaccine mandate protesters as for these pro-Hamas protesters.
And yet the law, which is on paper, is applied how the politicians want it applied.
I don't know if you remember, but a few years ago, by chance, I was on a plane that Omar Cotter, the convicted al-Qaeda terrorist, was on too.
And I don't know if you remember, I wrote a book about Omar Cotter.
Imagine me spotting him on the plane.
Now, as part of his release conditions from Guantanamo Bay, he agreed to be on a no-fly list and never going to America and not doing this and that.
Trudeau, in addition to giving him $10.5 million, obviously took him off the no-fly list because there he was.
He was actually flying first class on the airplane.
I was in economy.
I got off the plane, spotted him, actually managed to catch up with him, was asking him questions, walked outside, and a cop stopped me.
Not Omar Cotter, the terrorist.
The cop stopped me and said if I followed him onto the street, I would be given the jaywalking ticket.
Let me show you that.
This is a few years old.
This was actually right before the pandemic.
The cop said, I'll give you a ticket if you step on the road.
This was at the loading zone at the Halifax airport.
Just take a look.
The terrorist, that's an al-Qaeda terrorist right there.
Al-Qaeda terrorist.
It's an al-Qaeda terrorist right there.
Al-Qaeda terrorist right there.
Okay, go ahead.
Just go on.
Sir?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sir?
Yes.
Yes?
Why are you touching?
You're impeding someone from leaving the building.
You're impeding me from leaving the building.
What's your name and bad?
Give me my card, sir.
Give it to me.
I will give it to you, sir.
You're very close to being arrested.
You understand me?
And you're very close to getting a civil lawsuit for assault and battery.
Jaywalk, sir.
Let's walk back there, okay?
Am I clear?
Okay, what we're sipping on me.
What are you stepping on me for?
Scott.
And what job is that?
Keeping the public safe.
Whose safety was in breach there?
Everyone's safety, sir.
You're a goddamn liar, and you know it.
You're a disgrace to that badge, and you're a disgrace.
I'm proud of what I do, sir.
You're proud of defending a terrorist?
I'm proud of keeping people safe, sir.
Safe from whom?
So you see what I mean?
There's an actual murderer, a murderer and a terrorist.
And the cops are telling me if I step one foot on the road, I'll be given a jaywalking ticket.
Same thing happened during the lockdown.
Our reporters were given fines and they were prosecuted for, in the case of our head of video, Efron Monsanto, I swear, literally shaking hands, he was charged.
He was given $1,000 fines for shaking hands with someone in public.
True story.
So if you're on the freedom side of things, if you're an anti-vax mandate or a pro-trucker or a conservative or Jewish, and you do the most trifling infraction, don't you step on that street, the police will arrest you.
But if you go to a Jewish school and essentially chant death to the Jews, if you protest so much that it breaks up a meeting of two heads of the G7, Trudeau and Maloney, with signs that boast about the armed nature of this, there are signs going up around Toronto and Montreal, resistance by any means, with pictures of guns on them.
That's fine, but don't you dare misgender someone or you'll be hit with Trudeau's new hate speech bill.
Unbelievable.
Speaking of which, yesterday it turns out that the Muslim extremist who shot up the Edmonton City Hall was in fact charged with terrorism.
Did you even hear about that?
I bet you didn't.
Oh, we can't jump to conclusions, even though he did a video in advance where he referred to Gaza as one of his motivations.
Of course he was a terrorist.
We've all known that.
And finally, the police admit it in the form of charges that they've laid.
Evidence Presented: UNRWA's Role00:04:43
But even now, the CBC won't say who did it.
Here's their story that they posted.
They talk about a politically motivated shooting, but I read this article very carefully.
There's no mention of Gaza or Hamas or Islam or Muslims, even though all of these were the factors for this terrorist act.
Imagine writing a story about a guy being charged with terrorism and never saying what terrorism, for whom.
Do you think the CBC would take that same approach if it were, say, a Christian white male who shot up a mosque?
It's all they would talk about.
That's a form of a double standard, too.
That's the government journalist of the CBC state broadcaster.
So in the backdrop of an actual terrorist shooting up City Hall in Edmonton and the media Kono silence on that.
And what we saw over the weekend, Georgia Maloney and Justin Trudeau, Christia Freeland, Yaara Sachs, the synagogues and the schools in Montreal, Toronto.
Today, Ahmed Hassan, a Somali-Canadian who's now the Minister of Foreign Aid, announces he's going to keep on funding the United Nations Relief Works Agency, or UNRWA, which is basically the Hamas UN branch.
Of course, he never really stopped funding it.
It's more money.
But in the last few months, we've learned a lot more about this UN agency.
In fact, various chat groups and various video footage from the October 7th terrorist attack shows that UN Relief Works Agency, UNRWA, UN staff, were not just celebrating the terrorist attacks on Israel, they were participating in them.
450 UN staff at this agency are actually Hamas activists, Hamas members, even Hamas terrorists.
Here, take a look at this video.
I won't show the whole thing, it's too long.
But here's some of this video where the evidence is presented.
Yusuf Zidane was just one.
One out of several UN workers who took part in the Hamas massacre of October 7th.
This evening, we are publishing the names of additional terrorists employed by UNRWA who participated in October 7th massacre.
Bakar Mahmoud Abdallah Darwish, a Hamas terrorist and the school counselor at a UN at a new UNRWA school.
Rassan al-Jah Bari, a Hamas terrorist who works in the Hamas-run Ministry of Health.
Mamdouk Hossein Ahmed Al-Kuk, a Palestinian Islamic geoterrorist and a teacher at the UNRWA Elementary School.
Over 450 UNRWA employees are military operatives in terror groups in Gaza.
Over 450.
This is no mere coincidence.
This is systematic.
There is no claiming we did not know.
Hamas exploits humanitarian organizations and uses them to commit crimes against humanity.
These terrorists are employed by UNRWA.
Of course everyone knows that.
Of course everyone knows that if you want to give money to Hamas, you just give it to the UN and they launder it.
Literally underneath the headquarters of the UN's office in Gaza is a Hamas bunker for two reasons.
First of all, to show how closely tied they are, but second of all, to use the UN as a human shield.
Everybody knows this, including Ahmed Hassan, who wore the Hamas scarf today when he was announcing the funding.
Jamil's Criticism of Liberal Fundraising00:05:56
Canada has gone full pro-terrorist.
Under Stephen Harper, Canada was one of the most principled countries in the world when it came to foreign affairs.
We've done a 108-degree turn.
I think about things politically.
I think about the liberal MPs who are Jewish in Montreal, Anthony House father, who's a junior cabinet minister, Rachel Ben-Diane.
They go out in the Jewish community, because there are pockets of Montreal and Toronto where there's a lot of Jews.
In Toronto, there's a cabinet minister named Yaara Sachs.
They really play up their Jewishness when they're running for office.
But they're completely fine with Trudeau and his pro-Hamas point of view.
They squawk a little bit on Twitter about anti-Semitism, but they don't say a word about Justin Trudeau or Ahmed Hassan or what I call the liberal Hamas caucus.
Incredibly, the chief fundraiser for Justin Trudeau is Jewish himself.
You know, I was thinking a little bit more about Hamas protesting at that fundraiser last night for Christia Freeland and Yaara Sachs.
How gross is that, that they're having a fundraiser, that they're asking for money from the Jewish community on the eve of giving more money to Hamas.
Now, I want to tell you, I don't support violence, and there was violence.
There always is violence.
I showed you the other day that one pro-Hamas activist hit a cop and was just released because the mob demanded it.
I don't support violence.
But you know what?
If violence has to happen somewhere, if these thugs have to be active somewhere, well, I'd prefer it to be at a Christian Freeland, Ya'ara Sachs fundraiser than in the Jewish community at a school or at a synagogue.
I mean, they're the ones who abide it.
They're the ones who okay it.
Shouldn't they be the targets of it?
Let me end with a little flicker of good news.
There was a by-election in the Ontario riding of Durham the other day, and Jamil Giovanni ran as the conservative candidate, and the liberals pulled out all the stops.
Justin Trudeau himself went there to campaign.
So did half a dozen other cabinet ministers.
And look at this.
Jamil Giovanni, the conservative candidate who was personally insulted by Justin Trudeau, who called him a twofer, referring to he's black, and I forget what the other thing is.
I mean, just a phrase that if anyone else had used would be called racist.
In fact, they ran a really crypto-racist campaign.
Oh, he's not from around here.
He's not our kind, because Durham is sort of a, you know, it's a whiter riding than, say, downtown Toronto.
The Liberals didn't hesitate to play the race card very subtly, but Jamil Giovanni absolutely smoked the Liberals.
He got 57.4% of the vote, and the Liberals just got 22 and a half, less than half of that.
It was incredible.
It was hopeful.
And any liberal who thinks they'll just be able to escape through this, well, good luck to them.
I saw the liberals put out a meme on Twitter comparing Pierre Polyev to Donald Trump.
And I thought, boy, they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel, aren't they?
They really run out of ideas when that's their rebuttal.
Canada's GDP is shrinking.
We're in a de facto recession.
Housing prices have never been worse.
Inflation has never been worse.
You've got terrorism, either soft terrorism shouting and screaming death to the Jews or actual terrorism shooting up the city hall.
This country has rarely been in such bad shape.
And Justin Trudeau thinks he'll change the channel by saying he likes Trump.
Not sure if it's going to work.
You know, I'm reminded of when Pierre Trudeau was given sort of a bonus term.
If you remember your history, Joe Clark beat Trudeau in 1979, but Joe Clark screwed it up.
And there was another election less than a year later, and Trudeau came in for sort of a bonus term from 1980 to 1984.
Sort of, it was like a windfall.
And it was in that last term that Pierre Trudeau did some of his craziest radical stuff, including nationalizing the oil and gas sector through the National Energy Program.
They knew that they weren't going to get another term, so they were parting like it was the end of the world.
I mean, why not?
They knew they weren't going to win the 1984 election anyways.
Why not do whatever they could in their final years?
I think that Justin Trudeau is in that same phase.
I think he and his party realize that there's going to be a lot more Jamil Giovanni's.
In fact, week after week, we see polling where the Liberals will practically get wiped out.
Now, you'd be foolish to be complacent, and a poll is a snapshot in a moment of time.
It's not a prediction for the future.
But I think that Justin Trudeau and Ahmed Hassan, who's giving millions of dollars to terrorists, and Arif Virani, by the way, who is Muslim himself and who said we've got to crack down on Islamophobia, by which he means criticism of Islam.
He's bringing in this censorship bill that is the most draconian ever seen in Canada.
I think they're in the burn the place down phase of this government, like Pierre Trudeau was in 1980.
My only hope is that we can get elections soon enough to keep the fire as small as possible.
Stay with us more ahead.
Well, if you were to ask me who my number one favorite independent news site was, I would tell you out of loyalty and belief that it's Rebel News, of course.
Irish Asylum Controversy00:15:06
But a very close second is a great Irish website called GRIPT, G-R-I-P-T dot IE.
That's the Irish country suffix on the internet.
Citizen journalists who take a contrarian view to the dominant narrative, but the quality of their work is amazing.
And what makes me a little bit jealous is they get access to everyone in the Irish cabinet and they put the questions.
And this is very unusual for us Canadians to see.
The Irish politicians actually answer them.
I've never seen that in Canada.
And so we follow Grippt very closely.
And it has been the go-to news site for me to follow the Irish migration crisis.
They use the word asylum seekers where we typically say refugees, but Ireland has been swamped in recent months.
And we have a story today from Grippt.
Taoiseach, that's how they say prime minister in Irish.
Taoiseach says huge numbers of single male asylum seekers still arriving in Ireland.
And the author of that report is Fatima Gunni, and she joins us now from Ireland.
Great to see you again.
Thank you for taking the time.
Congratulations on the increasing growth and success of GRIPT.
I found this article funny because Taoiseach, which is how you say prime minister in Irish, he's the guy who's brought them all in.
He's the guy who's opened the floodgates and now he's expressing his surprise that they're not actually the young, the old, the sick, the poor.
They're not women and children.
They're single military age males claiming to be refugees.
I don't know.
It seems like a bit of a fake shock, like in that scene from Casablanca, gambling, what gambling?
Here's your winning, sir.
Why thank you?
It seems like a fake that he's shocked by this.
I think it is a little bit strange that he is coming out now and saying that he said that 38 to 40% of the asylum claimants have genuine claims, which means that the majority are not genuine.
And he said now that those people need to be kind of processed quickly and removed from the state, which by I think his own government's definition would have been a far-right statement only several weeks ago.
So I'm not too sure what exactly has changed to change Leo Varadkar's feelings about what and what is not far right, in some cases misinformation of what he would have said himself.
So I do think that there has been, just to give a little bit of background for some of your viewers that may not be too familiar with what's been happening in Ireland over the past two years, but since the start of the war in Ukraine, we have taken in over 100,000 people, 100,000 Ukrainians, and then there's another 20-something thousand international protection applicants, asylum seekers, like would-be refugees.
So our small country of five million, we have five million in the Republic of Ireland, has absorbed over 100,000 migrants in the past two years alone.
And as I'm sure your viewers might be able to imagine, that has created somewhat of an accommodation crisis because like, you know, how do you accommodate over 100,000 people, you know, practically speaking overnight?
Yeah.
I mean, a few months ago, there were massive riots in Ireland.
And I know that sometimes when a town is targeted to receive hundreds of migrants and let's say a building or a hotel is basically seconded by the government for that purpose, I know that in some cases they've been torched, which shows the depth of dissatisfaction that people are driven to violence.
I think it goes back to what you said earlier about in the past how this Prime Minister Varadkar would denounce anyone who's critical of mass migration as far-right or misinformation.
I think it's terrified people.
And so if they're afraid to speak out, well, then they go to other less peaceful means.
I don't in any way condone violence, either riots or arson, but I think obviously ordinary Irish people are being driven to the edge by this plan that no one voted for, no one asked for.
I know Leo Varadkar, the prime minister or Taoiseach, as it is in Irish, is one of those World Economic Forum young leaders.
He's very globalist.
He's very hip and fashionable.
It feels like he's trying to punish Ireland for being Irish.
That's a feeling I get.
He reminds me a little bit of, I think his name is Joseph Hamza, the head of the Scottish parliament, who has given a speech showing his contempt for the Scottishness of Scots.
I feel sometimes like Leo Varadkar hates the fact that Ireland is so Irish.
Is that an unfair thing to say, Panama?
I don't know if he does or not.
I mean, he's a mixed race Irish person like myself.
He's half Indian, half Irish.
I'm half Pakistani, half Irish.
So we have that in common.
But I think perhaps, I don't know if the similarities end there.
I look, yeah, there have been a spade of fires at buildings that have been earmarked or even rumored to be earmarked as accommodation centers for asylum seekers.
Obviously, as you said yourself, that's like it's a horrible criminal act.
Like in no way condone people setting fire to buildings.
I mean, somebody could be in there, a life could be lost.
And I don't think this situation is worth lives being lost.
But he said that the, you know, maybe some of the Irish people were doing that out of like a fear of speaking out.
When the Irish people have spoken out and have taken to the streets over the past two years to speak out about their displeasure about what the government is doing in terms of asylum seekers and refugees, they were flatly ignored.
And worse than being ignored, they were labeled far-right, racist, bigot, everything, every single name in the book.
I'm talking about by the Garda Commissioner, or the Garda Commissioner would be either the head of our police force, by almost everybody in government, were calling the Irish people names.
A recent poll carried in a paper called the Sunday Business Post.
It's a Red Sea poll.
It's quite, you know, the kind of the official polling that would be used to gauge political moods in the country showed that 75% of the Irish people feel that the government has taken in too many refugees and asylum seekers.
So are you really reasonably calling 75% of the Irish population far-right?
I mean, that sounds a bit ridiculous to me.
Well, one of the things that we've followed through your website, GRIPT, and we've interviewed some of your colleagues, is the hate speech law that's being proposed by the Irish government.
And it was, frankly, one of the most terrifying laws I've seen until Justin Trudeau in Canada introduced his a week ago.
One of the things in the Irish law, which I did a program and we went through it line by line, is that if you are in possession of an email or a meme on your phone, just merely possessing something that could be offensive, could theoretically be an offense, as if it was child pornography or something.
Something that's politically offensive would be treated that spectacularly, as if it was that toxic.
I thought the Irish censorship law was the worst I'd ever seen until I saw Canada's.
But how is that law coming along?
Has it been bogged down in the parliament?
Is it sailing through?
I know a lot of Irish people were against it.
One of your colleagues counted the public response and it was against.
Is that censorship law?
Is that hate speech law moving forward?
Because the fact that Leo Varadkar, the prime minister, would denounce people as hateful or far-right, I could imagine him using a hate speech law to silence critics with the law, in addition to just shaming them.
How's that law coming along?
Well, for the moment, it seems to have been put somewhat on the back burner.
I know that they were essentially trying to ram it through last year, and that didn't happen.
There was quite some significant opposition to it from senators, especially Senator Sharon Kyogan and Senator Michael McDowell, who was our former Minister for Justice.
They had some very robust objections to it.
So it has been kind of shoved away.
And I think that perhaps the kind of the government that were pushing it through, the government members that were pushing it through, were perhaps taken aback by the level of like public opposition to it.
Will it be scrapped?
I don't think so.
Like, I don't think a bill that has gotten this far through the legislature has ever been scrapped at this stage.
But I think it's so deeply unpopular and they're going into an election right now.
So I don't know if they want to be ramming something down the people's throats that's so like visibly unpopular.
Isn't that interesting?
Hey, I got one more question for you.
I was following the riots in Ireland against these migrants or asylum seekers, and it was fascinating.
And one of the most famous Irish people in the world, I think, would be Conor McGregor, the mixed martial artist, the brawler.
You know, he's in the past, I don't think he's been particularly political.
He's got his opinions and he's got a brash style.
But during that time, I saw him weighing in a lot in social media.
In fact, he even replied to and interacted with a few tweets from you guys from Grippt.
And there was this idea of perhaps that he's going to make a career change into politics.
He would certainly have huge name recognition.
He has a passionate sports following.
I think a lot of Irish people seems like they look up to him as a champion of what it means to be the fighting Irish.
I think he'd be a real contender in that, like Donald Trump, you love him or you hate him, but he would give enthusiasm to people.
He would be very different from Leo Varadkar.
Has anything come from that?
Was that just a passing flight of fancy by Connor McGregor?
Or does it look like he might actually one day enter politics?
Because I think just as a complete outsider, based on his raw personality and following, and the fact that he's on the other side of the migration issue, I think he might actually have a chance like Trump did.
I mean, I think that, you know, if it's not Connor himself, like I have seen some of his more recent tweets, and they do seem to be kind of giving out a more political message than they may have hitherto.
But I think even if it's not himself, like there is a huge, huge appetite for change in this country, because I think the Irish people are just sick of the same old like BS being kind of rearranged on the on the chessboard over and over again, because that's essentially what Irish politics is.
It's kind of like we just were playing musical chairs and every four years, the same members kind of get up and get a different chair and we start back up again.
I think there is huge, huge appetite for change.
I will say though that after the Dublin riots, Connor McGregor was reported to be the subject of a Garda investigation for allegedly inciting hatred, I believe, inciting violence.
He was reported to be part of a Garda investigation.
I haven't seen anything come of that.
I don't know if they're still investigating it.
I don't know if it's fallen by the wayside.
But yeah, he was kind of singled out there a little bit as being one of the causes of what happened.
You know, I don't think that's legitimate.
I followed him pretty closely.
And while he was reacting to it and he was showing his emotions, by no means did I see him actually inciting violence.
And with my earlier analogy that he's sort of Trump-like and that he's this larger than life character, huge name recognition, bit of a media star.
How are they going after Trump with endless specious investigations and prosecutions?
Sounds like they might be taking a page from the anti-Trump folks too.
Well, listen, Fatima, it's great to catch up with you.
I really appreciate you taking the time.
I admire gripped.ie.
And, you know, Ireland's a small country.
I think there's more Irish people living outside of Ireland than in Ireland itself.
But many of the issues that you're dealing with, whether it's mass migration, globalism, problems with your democracy, hate speech laws, those are things that we're going through in Canada too.
So, of course, there are Canadians of Irish descent and Canadians who admire Ireland, but it's also the same reason we find Australia interesting or other countries like that.
What happens in Ireland today might be a template for what happens in Canada tomorrow, especially since our leaders seem to be sort of identical twins on that stuff.
So keep up the great work.
And once again, thanks to you and your team.
I really do love Gript.
And I'm delighted to see that you're going from success to success.
Thank you so much.
Hope to be with you again.
Right on.
There you have it.
Fatima Gunning.
Stay with us.
More ahead.
You know, it's really demoralizing seeing police say, oh, I don't know, when Hamas supporters clearly break the law, when they physically attack people, when they even attack police, when they say, oh, we can't do anything.
And of course, the police could do something.
Remember Adam Skelly and his barbecue when it wouldn't close in Toronto and they sent 100 cops and riot horses?
That's how police can be.
That's why I think that Justin Trudeau actually deliberately allowed his meeting with Georgia Maloney to be a failure.
We know he hates Georgia Maloney.
We know the first time they met, he scolded her for not being LGBT2QSL plus friendly enough.
There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that the RCMP and Toronto police could have, for sure, kept that meeting safe.
I think they chose not to.
I think they're choosing chaos.
I think they want to put Canada into a state of anarchy and fear.
I think they want to do that to justify their Online Harms Act, which will give them power to censor everyone.
So they want to have people afraid.
And I think they want to get, well, the getting's good.
If they had their way, they would bring all of Gaza over here.
Don't you doubt it for a second.
If Justin Trudeau had his way, he would airlift 2 million Gazans to Canada and give them new citizenship and just sort of win the next election on that alone.
That's the burn it all down mode they're in.
They'll do literally anything, violate any laws, steal any money.
And the NDP seems to be going along with it.
It's just incredible that the NDP is blocking parliamentary inquiries into the Chinese stealing of the Ebola virus or whatever they did there.
Just incredible.
But the role for a citizen journalist is more important than ever.
