Ezra Levant highlights Justin Trudeau’s February 24th ceasefire remarks in Kiev, where he pledged Canadian troops without parliamentary approval, amid $5B in military aid from frozen Russian assets. Ukraine faces Russia’s 3x population, 10x artillery, and nuclear threats, yet Western leaders like Trudeau and Boris Johnson avoid defining victory clearly, calling support "cruel." Meanwhile, Toronto’s Bathurst-Shepard protests normalize anti-Semitism, with police allegedly enabling pro-Hamas extremists—arresting Jewish counter-protesters while ignoring Hamas-linked violence. Boardman’s legal battles and Officer Ibrahim’s alleged bias expose systemic failures, raising concerns over democracy’s erosion under activist courts and unchecked ideological policing.

Tonight, Justin Trudeau only has a couple more weeks as prime minister, but he's decided he might send Canadian troops to Ukraine.
It's February 24th, and this is the Azer Levant show.
Third World War?00:10:59
It's the third anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Donald Trump is correct to focus on the bloodshed.
The deadliest and most destructive conflict that one can imagine.
I've seen the pictures, I've seen the satellite photos, and lots of other photos, and it's a horrible thing that's happening.
Thousands of people are dying a week.
This very day is the third anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine, which would never have happened if I was president.
That was not going to happen.
The horrors of this gruesome and bloody war can scarcely be overestimated.
Hundreds of thousands of people, Russians and Ukrainians in particular, have needlessly died.
An entire generation of Ukrainians and Russian men has been decimated.
1,000-year-old cities have been turned into rubble.
Those beautiful spires that you used to see there, they were most beautiful in the world, they say, are lying in heaps of rubble, blasted to smithereens.
And it's time to end this bloodletting and restore peace, and I think we're going to do it.
We've had some great conversations, including with Russia.
Since my return to the White House, we've made more progress toward that goal in one month than occurred in the past three years.
And I've spoken with both President Putin and President Zelensky.
And again, a lot of good things toward peace are happening, moving it, I think, pretty quickly.
Many other NATO country leaders talk about victory, Trudeau included, but they never quite explain what victory means in the case of Ukraine other than continuing to fight.
What would victory look like in Ukraine, recapturing all of the land Ukraine has lost to Russia in the past three years, or perhaps retaking the Crimea as well?
That's land that Russia invaded and annexed in 2014.
How would that be done, given that Russia has three times the population and 10 times the artillery?
And if things for Russia actually went really wrong, if they were starting to lose, of course they have nuclear weapons too.
How do you have victory if you're a smaller non-nuclear country against really one of the only nuclear superpowers?
I think the key is never actually answering what the word victory means.
They just say they're for victory.
Now, Trudeau was an expert at that.
He had no idea.
He has no idea about anything, but he sure was enthusiastic.
Yes, it is incredibly hard for Ukraine to continue to stand against Russian aggression.
And let's be honest, it's hard for the democracies around the world who are there to support their citizens, who are investing for the future, who are challenged with a challenging economy around the world to continue to step up as Canada has with close to $9 billion in aid for Ukraine.
But we will, because the cost on Canadians, on our lives, on our world will be so much greater if Putin wins this war that we will and have to stand every single day until Ukraine wins this war.
There's a terrible phrase that some critics of this war have used to describe people in the West with no skin in the game, egging on a conflict that ought to be peacefully resolved.
They call it fighting until the last Ukrainian.
As in someone else can do the dying.
But it's not just critics who say that.
Sometimes the advocates of the war, or keeping the war going, I mean, they say it too, more or less.
Here's Boris Johnson, the former UK prime minister, who said as much, saying it was a proxy war by the West against Russia.
He used the word proxy war.
Ukraine, they just have to do the fighting.
Take a look at this.
Let's face it, we're waging a proxy war.
We're waging a proxy war, but we're not giving our proxies the ability to do the job.
And for years and years now, we've been allowing them to fight with one hand tied behind their backs.
And it has been cruel.
It has been cruel.
And we need now to give them what they need.
That's a pretty astonishing thing for Boris Johnson to say.
First of all, to call it a proxy war is a kind of confession or admission.
A proxy, it means an agent, a delegate, a subordinate, an errand boy.
Is that something Vladimir Zelensky would agree with?
Is that what Zelensky would say to his own people, that we are proxies for the UK and the U.S.?
Our country in this war is for them?
I mean, the U.S. was behind it, just like Boris Johnson was when Joe Biden was president.
But we saw that on other occasions too.
I mean, not just Boris Johnson.
Here's, I mean, shortly after the invasion in 2022, there was a genuine effort to stop the war.
And a peace deal was more or less done.
But then Johnson himself was deployed and practically ordered Zelensky to walk away from the deal.
And for years, if anyone even mentioned a ceasefire, let alone a permanent peace treaty, the Biden administration would rage against them, essentially vetoing it.
Even though it was Ukrainians who were doing the dying, Americans were saying no ceasefire allowed.
Here's an example of that.
This is from 2023.
If, coming out of this meeting, there's some sort of call for a ceasefire, well, that's just going to be unacceptable because all that's going to do, Mike, is ratify Russia's conquest to date.
All that's going to do is give Mr. Putin more time to refit, retrain, reman, and try to plan for renewed offensives at a time of his choosing.
Since then, hundreds of thousands of men have been killed or wounded on both sides.
Is Ukraine further ahead than a year ago, than two years ago, than three years ago?
More of it is destroyed.
Now, they briefly repulsed Russia, but Russia has now moved on inexorably, devouring a few miles here and there every day.
The deadliest war in Europe since the Second World War, of course, it's in some ways reminiscent of Stalingrad.
Cities just turned to rubble.
And did you know there are North Korean troops fighting as mercenaries with Russia?
In a way, it has become a third world war.
Trump is right when he says about this turning into World War III.
This is the right time.
It may be the only time.
You know, that's a very interesting and horrible situation.
And that could evolve into a third world war.
We're not going to let that happen.
Should have never started, but it did.
And what a mess.
What a horrible, bloody mess.
For three years, there has been no meaningful attempts at peace since that meeting that was scuppered by Boris Johnson.
Now Trump wants to end the war.
He campaigned on that.
He's pretty much said that if it just comes down to it, America will stop funding it and it'll end that way.
So can he get a better deal?
And that's been sort of a wake-up call for Europe.
I've mentioned before a woman named Kaya Kallas.
She used to be the prime minister of Estonia.
Now she's a foreign affairs leader for the European Union.
She wasn't really elected by the people, but that's her position.
As I mentioned, Estonia has about 1.3 million people in the whole country.
It's the size of Calgary, Alberta.
Here she is meeting with our own Melanie Joli.
We've got 40 million people, but not much more of an army than Estonia has, I'm afraid.
That's the thing.
You can play dress up all you like, but without the U.S. to pay the bills and provide the weapons, it's just a costume party.
There's something very odd, I think, about tiny European countries with no real armed forces of their own talking so tough about war, especially if it's young women who probably have never held a firearm in their lives.
The idea of them knowing about war is so disconnected from what war is like.
I'll add Trudeau to that list, of course.
And Germany, too, actually.
Remember the German official who was in tears after U.S. Vice President JD Vance said America wanted Europe to grow up and to start taking responsibility for themselves and not relying on America so much anymore.
And by the way, they should stop censoring.
Here's that German leader of the Munich Security Conference in tears.
This is why I cannot just ignore what we heard before.
I cannot not comment on the speech we heard about the U.S. Vice President.
We fight for your right to be against us.
That is the motto, one of the mottos of the Bundeswehr, and it stands for our democracy.
Democracy that was just called into question by the U.S. vice president, not just the German democracy, but Europe as a whole.
He spoke of the annulment of democracy, and if I understood him correctly, he compares the condition of Europe with the condition that prevails in some authoritarian regimes.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is not acceptable.
Trump has essentially said to these folks: you can have your press releases and your podcasts and your meetings and you can play dress up, but America's out.
Now, they're appalled and claiming that America is pro-Russian.
I don't know.
I think Trump just doesn't want to inherit someone else's war, especially a war that's only getting worse every day for Ukraine.
Yeah, it's getting worse for Russia too, but it's Ukraine that's losing.
How can you call yourself a friend of Ukraine if you preside over its destruction at the hands of the Russian army meat grinder?
Didn't Boris Johnson just give the game away there?
Trump wants peace.
Now, peace at any price?
Probably not.
I hope not.
But you do make peace with your enemies, by the way.
You generally don't make peace with friends you don't need to.
And given that Russia is winning the war, at least in terms of territory, the terms of the peace will likely be distasteful to the West.
But what is the alternative?
It is a terrible business.
Trump never talks about Ukraine without mentioning that the war would not have started on his watch.
And I think we all know that to be the truth.
Trump On Peace Terms00:04:26
In fact, Justin Trudeau acknowledged that in his weekend phone call with Trump.
And we know that's true because war didn't start on Trump's watch.
It happened before Trump was president when Obama was president in 2014.
And it happened after Trump was president in 2022.
Now Trump is coming in and trying to fix the thing.
Anyways, Trudeau has what?
Two weeks left as prime minister, March 9th, if I'm being precise.
But boy, he loves jetting around on his private jet, our jet, acting very important.
He has no democratic mandate.
He has no democratic legitimacy.
He prorogued parliament because he was about to be fired by the MPs and sent to an election.
He's hiding from his own MPs.
He's hiding from Canadians.
He is hated.
But there he is, swatting around the world, first-class private jets, five-star hotels.
Oh, and throwing more bales of $1,000 bills on the fire.
Look at this.
But I know, we all know, there is more work to do.
That is why I am announcing Canada will be providing 25 more LAV-3 infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine.
We will be delivering two armored combat support vehicles, which Ukrainian forces will be trained on shortly in Germany.
Landing systems for F-16s were delivered just two months ago, and four F-16 flight simulators will be provided in the coming months.
And that's on top of the millions of additional rounds of ammunition, components for drone cameras, and first aid kits.
We're also dispersing the first installment of the $5 billion in assistance to Ukraine funded through revenues from frozen Russian assets, along with providing a grant to help Ukraine maintain its energy security in the wake of consistent, reckless attacks by Russia on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
At least in this case, he claims he's paying for the $5 billion from seized Russian assets.
Normally, he just takes our tax dollars.
What's so weird, though, is that he's sending state-of-the-art military equipment to Ukraine, equipment that is more advanced than anything we have here in Canada.
F-16s?
We don't have those in Canada.
We have 40-year-old F-18s, many of which don't work.
And then this, I don't know if you saw this headline.
It was in the Canadian press.
Here's the verse on CTB.
Sending Canadian troops to Ukraine on the table under a possible peace deal.
Trudeau.
So we would send Canadian troops to be a buffer between Russia and Ukraine?
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did not rule out sending Canadian troops to Ukraine as part of a possible ceasefire deal when asked about the prospect during a peace and security summit Monday in Kiev.
We will work with our neighbors on it, but everything is on the table, Trudeau said at a joint media conference with other leaders.
You know, I've learned that when Trudeau or Melanie Jolie or any of his people say everything's on the table, that's actually just code for we have no idea and we're afraid to say yes or no.
But still, he's not ruling it out.
So no parliamentary debate, no vote.
Just send troops to be human shields in the middle of these two brutal warring countries.
You know, maybe that's a good idea.
I don't know.
Maybe that's in our national interest.
I can see an argument that it could be.
Stay in good with NATO, make sure Kaya Kallis likes us and Kirstarmer and the new German chancellor.
I don't know.
Maybe Canadians want that.
Maybe we can afford that.
I'm skeptical, but to do all this on the back of a napkin in the final weeks of his term of office with parliament dissolved, that's outrageous.
That's undemocratic.
I've got to just share one more headline with you.
Take a look at this one from the Globe and Mail.
Trudeau presses Trump for Ukraine's security guarantees.
I'll read it from the Globe.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed U.S. President Donald Trump in a phone call Saturday to ensure that any peace deal for Ukraine offers security guarantees and prevents Russia from using military force to further expand its territorial reach.
Yeah, I think the Brits are in this peace conversation.
And I think the French are too.
I don't know.
Germany's new leader seems to be having a bit of a meltdown.
Rebel News Update00:03:19
He was just elected yesterday.
I don't think anyone takes Germany too seriously as a military force, though.
Obviously, the U.S. is going to be at that negotiation, Ukraine and Russia.
But Trudeau?
Telling Trump how to do it.
Telling Trump how to negotiate.
Yeah, I'm sure Trump was hanging on Trudeau's every word.
Hey, what's your advice for how I should negotiate, Justin?
I can't wait until March 9th to be done with that little clown Trudeau.
Can you?
Stay with us for more.

You know, I'm no longer worried about Israel in the Middle East.
I think Israel handily dispatched Hezbollah in Lebanon without barely firing a shot.
They paged them all and blew them up and then took out the head of Hezbollah with a well-placed missile strike.
Hamas has been largely decapitated, and Donald Trump says he wants to bulldoze it and build a Riviera.
I don't know exactly what that means, but I don't think he's much interested in giving Hamas control over it.
Other countries in the region are reluctant to go along with Trump, but he has his persuasive ways.
We saw the King of Jordan visiting the White House the other day, and he seemed to go along with it.
More importantly, the Saudis and other Sunni states in the Persian Gulf region seem to want to get back on track for Donald Trump's Abraham Accords.
I see even the president of Lebanon, despite having a massive funeral for the Hezbollah leader over the weekend, said Lebanon is tired of fighting and dying in a war for Palestinians.
I think the whole region is ready to move on.
And because Donald Trump won, I think Israel will be strong.
Had Kamala Harris won, I think it is true what Trump predicted: that Israel would have been denormalized, it would have had sanctions put on it, it would have become a pariah at the UN.
I think there's a real chance that Israel could have crumbled.
But I am now quite optimistic about Israel.
I'm not the only one I noticed that Air Canada has announced that they are going to start their flights directly again from Canada to Israel, which is a sign not only that they think it's safe again, but they think it's commercially viable.
Officer Ibrahim's Incident00:15:20
They wouldn't do that trip if they didn't think they could fill it.
So the world is moving on.
But what the October 7th, 2023 attacks revealed was not just Israel's weaknesses and strengths, but ours here in Canada.
And I think I'm much more concerned, and I always have been much more concerned about what's going on in Canada than in Israel, where I think they can take care of themselves.
I'll give you the example of the neighborhood in North Toronto, the intersection of two streets, Bathurst and Shepard, where innocuously enough, for the first year, a group of Jews and allies of the Jews would wave Israeli and Canadian flags at the street corner, and honkers would honk their horn in support.
And they said they were doing that to remember the hostages.
Remember, Hamas took more than 200 hostages, including two young babies.
Well, in the last few months, pro-Hamas extremists have driven into Toronto from miles away and have set up a pro-Hamas counter-demonstration right across the street, where they shout obscenities, call up for a genocide from the river to the sea.
And most recently, they have bizarre reenactments of Hamas.
You might recall, I went there when they were reliving the final moments of the Hamas leader, Yahya Sinware.
They had someone wearing a mask in a chair covered with fake blood.
It was so astonishing.
I went there to see it for myself.
And I was arrested, you might recall, because police said my mere presence there was upsetting to the Hamas protesters because I was Jewish.
Here's a flashback of that using to leave.
I'm refusing to leave.
Why?
Because I'm a Jew.
I'm a citizen.
And I'm your boss.
And I don't leave if you say Jews are the man on the street.
In the interest of keeping peace here and public safety, you're under arrest for breach of the peace.
Take it.
I'm good.
I'm being arrested because I'm standing on the sidewalk in my city.
I'm a Jew who lives in this neighborhood, and I'm being arrested because the police say that's the path of least resistance.
Well, that was my arrest.
My friend David Menzies was arrested in the same place again for doing journalism.
And the reason I mention that is that police, instead of removing these protesters who are blocking the sidewalk at a minimum, but they do much more.
They engage in assault.
They utter threats.
I'm not a big believer in hate crimes, but they absolutely, if they haven't committed hate crimes, there's no such thing.
They've come into a Jewish residential neighborhood and they're shouting on amplified Laospeakers anti-Semitism. at passersby.
If that's not a hate crime, I don't think there is one.
But what's frustrating me is how the police have gone from keeping the peace to being concierges for the Hamas terrorists.
They not only protect them and they're, I would call it part of a crime wave, but they arrest anyone who gets too uppity about it.
And again, that happened yesterday.
Take a look at this video and see for yourself.
I'm going to just go say hi to Officer Abrian.
Peacefully respectful.
Keep it!
Small portion Okay, no talk, okay?
Get out of my face and talk.
Thank you.
Get out of my face and I'll talk.
Get out of my face and I'll talk to you.
What are you doing?
Oh!
Go back to your side.
I'm not Jewish.
I'll stay with you guys.
That's up every time with you!
I'm done with you.
What are you doing here?
I just come to say that hi to you.
I am not a violent.
I am peaceful.
I am vile.
I don't do anything wrong.
What's wrong with you?
What's the problem with your mental health?
Please don't block.
Control your anger, please.
Just over here for me, guys.
Please control your anger.
You're probably not alone.
What's wrong with you?
I just came to say hi to you, Officer Ibrahim.
Out of the driveway, right here.
That's all I'm asking you.
Out of the driveway.
I'm here.
I just came peacefully to say hi to Officer Ibrahim, okay?
Okay.
And I am respectful to you as well.
Come on, guys.
Thank you for keeping jihadis safe.
That man is our friend Salman Sima, who is a Persian ally of the Jews.
He's carrying the traditional Iranian flag, the one of the Shah, and he has a sign, you could say, saying Hamas are terrorists.
He walked over from the side with the Jewish protesters to the other side.
And I think he walked up to an officer, Ibrahim, who's a DEI hire in the Toronto Police Force, who didn't seem to like Salman Sima and immediately pushed him and pushed him again, pushed him back on the road.
I'm not sure why he did that, other than he feels comfortable doing that.
He feels comfortable protecting the Hamas protesters and shoving Jewish or Persian counter, you know, supporters of Israel because he knows they won't riot and he knows the mayor doesn't have their back.
What's so incredible is, and what was not shown in that video, is that yesterday the pro-Hamas protesters were carrying little fake baby dolls with them, symbolizing those Jewish babies that were murdered, strangled by Hamas and whose bodies were finally returned to Israel last week.
Imagine that.
Imagine reenacting the strangulation of little baby children on the street, having a police escort for that.
And when a Persian critic comes forward, the Persian is shut back.
Joining me now to talk about that is the man who filmed that footage, as far as I know, Daniel Bortman, citizen journalist who joins us now by Scribe.
Daniel, good to see you again.
Thanks for having me back.
Yes, for the record, yes, I was the one filming that particular video.
So I was there that day.
And that wasn't the first sort of incident we had with Officer Ibrahim.
Like, again, he doesn't like Solomon and I because Salman went to go counter-protest the regime's big, it's a big terrorist march for like the Ashura march, which is, you know, sponsored and created by the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Solomon went there with a sign that said, like, respect human rights in Iran and got attacked by the crowd.
Then we went to the officers to report the assault.
And then we were assaulted by Officer Ibrahim while trying to report an assault.
And then we were screamed at and whatever.
So this is like the beginning of Officer Ibrahim and our relationship.
I know his badge number by heart now is 65697, I believe.
We were assaulted.
It's on video.
They pushed it through the wood and we came in.
You're disturbing the peace.
What did we do?
I didn't say I leave.
Please, leave, Red.
Leave me.
Go somewhere else.
I let someone in.
We have the right to be here.
It's Canada.
What happened before this is Officer Ibrahim himself, and I have it posted on my Twitter.
I quote tweeted that video showing him having a friendly conversation with Farah Ansari, who was arrested at Bathus and Shepherd a few weeks ago for assaulting a police officer.
So I have him at the tail end of a friendly conversation.
Now, you will have to take my word for this particular incident, but I was looking over across the street and I said, is that Officer Ibrahim?
And it was.
And he came up with a big smile on his face and he approached Farah Ansari and they approached each other and they gave each other a big hug.
They embraced and then they were having this cordial chat for a while.
And Farah Ansari, I noticed Herbie's.
I didn't, again, I was in India when that happened.
So I just noticed Herbie's.
I had filmed her.
That's also my Twitter.
She was dancing with some stuffed animals, mocking the Bibis children.
So she was one of the jihadis who was very happy the Bibis children was murdered, mocking the community over the Bibis children quite, you know, publicly, let's say.
And then I saw Officer Ibrahim come up, give her a big hug, and he's talking with her.
So he's willing to have a conversation, a friendly conversation, with someone who's been charged with assaulting one of his literal colleagues, right?
This is his police division.
But if Salman Seema, a political prisoner, refugee, pro-Canada, comes up politely, respectfully, doesn't get in his face, says, hello, Officer Ibrahim, attacked before even the second word gets out.
He put his hands on Salmon and assaulted him.
He put his hands on me.
Like, I didn't say anything to him.
He just started immediately grabbing me and shoving me and throwing me.
This is, I mean, it's very unstable.
Either he's mentally unstable or he has a proclivity to side with the ideology of Hamas.
These are the only two possible explanations for him.
So why is he having a friendly conversation, smiling and hugging someone mocking the dead Bibis children who's been charged with assaulting an officer?
And why is he so violent with a citizen journalist and a former refugee?
You know, if this were happening 50 years ago, if there were some anti-Semites who were coming down to pick fights in a civilian residential Jewish neighborhood, I think the cops would sort of give them a bums rush.
And if the cops didn't, I think local Jewish men would probably come out with their fists and sort of move.
You know, 50, 100 years ago, there actually were sort of gangs.
There was riots in Christie Pits where there was Jews and others rioting against anti-Semites.
50 years ago, the idea that you could have foreign nationals come into the heart of a residential area of Toronto and shriek violent anti-Semitism and reenact the murder of babies with little dolls is unthinkable.
It would be unthinkable.
But what's so astonishing is that the police are there to protect those foreign nationals and their anti-Semitism.
And one of the cops, as you pointed out, Officer Ibrahim, seems to be on friendly terms with them.
This is happening every single week.
And I don't think the Hamas side is trying to persuade anyone.
They're so gross.
They're so abhorrent.
They're celebrating the murder of children.
They're diabolical.
I don't think they're trying to persuade anyone.
I think they're doing something different.
I think they're trying to plant the flag and say, we're the bosses here now.
We can come right into the heart of a Jewish residential neighborhood week after week and say the most astonishingly gross things.
You can't touch us.
If you even come close to us, we'll have you arrested.
And if you bring a Persian ally of the Jews, he'll be arrested just for saying hello to the police.
This is the new rules now.
There's a new sheriff in town.
Your country does not belong to you now.
And be demoralized because it's only going to get worse when every day more refugees from Gaza are shipped in, etc.
I think the police presence there is actually the worst part of it.
Everything you said is correct.
You're one of the very few people in the Jewish community at least who understands this.
Often in the last year and a half, they would do something horribly obscene, like, you know, march with armed resistance is the only way to, you know, something, something, death to Canada.
And a lot of Jews would say, oh, now people see who they are and we'll see them for their don't say anything.
Just let people see this.
Yeah, people see it.
They don't like them, but they're not going to do anything because they're scared.
You're 100% right.
This is not about, they're not trying to convince anyone to come to their side.
They're trying to assert dominance.
It's a dominance culture, right?
And then they're trying to recruit from their own.
And yeah, maybe they're trying to pick up some ragtag communist 20-year-olds here and there.
But it's a pure dominance thing.
It's showing that your neighborhoods are our neighborhoods and you are powerless to stop us.
And this is what the police have learned, right?
So it's a combination of a lot of things, like the depolicing and the fact that even the good cops know that if they see a terrorist supporter beating up a Jew and they tackle the terrorist supporter and he scrapes his elbow and they put handcuffs on him, Olivia Chow will come out and start talking about police brutality.
So the thing for the cops on that thing is just, okay, the safest thing is to do nothing.
But then they're also taught conflict de-escalation and they want to just de-escalate at all terms, right?
Never enforce the law or do the wrong thing.
It's always de-escalate in a situation.
But what that ends up happening is the groups that are the most violent and radical end up gaining the power here because they have the threat of violence.
So in order to avoid the threat of violence, the police to de-escalate capitulate to the most violent group on the streets.
So if you're the Jewish side or the Hindu side or the Christian side, you're out there.
People, the cops know, okay, they're not going to burn down my house if anything goes wrong.
But if you're a jihadi, a Khalestani, or a Marxist, the cops know all these people start smashing and breaking things so they get to get their way because then it would escalate if I possibly enforce the law.
I mean, that's what the cops said when they arrested me a little while ago.
They said your mere presence here could cause them to breach the peace.
You're not going to, they knew I wasn't going to breach the peace, and they didn't claim I would.
They said just being there was a problem because the other guys are excitable.
That's just not the Canadian law.
In fact, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that's not how it is.
Let me ask you a question.
I mean, I saw what happened to Salman Seema.
He was pushed and shoved by that officer, Ibrahim, who didn't have to.
He could have just ignored him.
I mean, cops are taunted all the time.
Part of the training of police is: can you control your emotions?
One of the reasons drill sergeants shout at recruits when they're practicing with their firearms is to add a level of stress to firearms management.
I mean, if you are a cop with a gun and people are screaming and swearing and shouting around you, are you going to freak out and just shoot them, or can you keep your wits when those around you are losing theirs?
And it's clear to me that Officer Ibrahim there could have just ignored Solomon or laughed at him or said, Sorry, not interested.
Instead, he was provoked by him, went up to him, pushed him, frog-marched him into the street.
Systemic Failures00:05:07
That's bad policing.
That's a guy who can't handle himself.
But it's actually assault as well.
There's no reason for that.
Are you or Salman considering suing the police in civil court for assault?
I mean, considering I can talk to Salmon, I mean, my thoughts on the system is why would I spend all this?
Like, I know the system isn't fair.
They're going to take a look at me, say I'm white.
He's going to look at his name, say Ibrahim, and they're going to rule against me.
Like, I know I have the law on my side.
I know it was assault.
I know I have rights, but I know I also don't really have rights in Canada, right?
According to whatever intersectional matrix of law, I'm wrong, he's right, because my name is Boardman, his name is Ibrahim.
So he wins.
And it would be like, listen, in a fair country with laws that actually mattered and were respected by the judicial system, yeah, I take my shot for what's right.
But I mean, the way I see it is, yeah, he's a bad cop.
Yeah, he's a danger to society and all that.
But if I were to file any official legal complaint against him, like why waste my time with a judge and a corrupt legal system who's just going to be filled with more officer Ibrahims than they would be with.
And if they're not Officer Ibrahims, they're going to be radical leftists who will just read Ibrahim versus Boardman and throw it out.
So why waste time?
It's very depressing.
Well, we'll keep an eye on things.
I mean, that showdown happens every single Sunday.
And it's really, it's astonishing how many resources the city of Toronto puts into defending Hamas protesters and arresting Jews who don't like it.
It's quite astonishing to me.
Thanks for taking the time with us.
Thank you.
All right, that's Daniel Boardman, citizen journalist.
Stay with us.
more ahead.
Hey, welcome back.
Your letters to me, Red Island Photographer says, I love how Mark Carney tries to talk like he's going to deal with Trump properly, but every time I see him speak of it, I generally fall asleep after the third sentence or so.
Mark Carney has some skills.
Obviously, he does.
You can't have a CB like his, Bank of Canada, Bank of England, chairman of Brookfield, without having some skills.
And I think he is skilled at working within large organizations.
He was on the board of the World Economic Forum.
I think he does well in that kind of schmoozy, who do you know, let me make a call kind of work.
I don't know if he's ever gone head-to-head with anyone like Donald Trump.
Very few have.
And I don't think he's actually run anything like a business.
He's just been part of huge NGOs.
Brookfield is not an NGO, but he's not a get-his-hands dirty businessman.
He's more, you know, a high priest above everything.
I don't know how he's going to do.
He will be prime minister.
Mark that.
He will be prime minister for whether it's days, weeks, or months.
And we'll see how he does.
Completely democratically illegitimate, by the way.
Iron Maiden says, I've yet to hear one Mainer back their governor over this issue.
By Mainer, you mean someone from Maine.
You're talking about the governor of Maine saying to Donald Trump at the White House the other day that she's not going to implement his new rules on kicking men out of women's sports.
That is such a terrible hill to die on for the Democrats.
I don't know why I'm giving advice to Democrats.
It's not that they would listen to me and take it.
But this is an issue, as Scott Jennings says, it's an 80-20 issue.
Maybe at most 20% of the people support it, but 80% don't.
It's much bigger than just Republicans.
It's moms mainly.
It's non-political people who are scared and look to Trump to fight back against the thing they're scared of.
Guys, you know, physically harming girls in sports or in changing groups.
And that's such a weird thing for a Democrat feminist from a liberal state to fight over.
And I think Trump is right.
She's offside with her own people.
And by the way, Trump has a hammer now, about $4 billion worth of transfers every year to that state.
RF78 says, is it even possible for the Prime Minister of Canada to do good stuff like Trump is doing for the USA?
On the one hand, I think the answer is yes, because Canada's prime minister has more powers than the U.S. President in certain ways.
The power to make appointments, the power to, is greater.
There's less restrictions.
As you know, Trump has had to send some of his picks for Senate confirmation.
That really doesn't happen in Canada.
I think that if Polyev wanted to, he could do a lot of these things.
Trouble is, I think our courts are so activist and so left-wing they might stop it.
