Tamara Ugalini and Lise Merrell critique Mark Carney’s NATO spending pledge—boosting Canada’s defense budget from 2% to 5% of GDP via 18-year mining projects—while exposing CSIS’s DEI focus, like land acknowledgements, amid unprecedented foreign interference threats. They highlight CBSA’s 66 suspected Iranian entries and 200K–500K undocumented refugees, questioning how identity-driven policies align with border security. Meanwhile, the Truckers Convoy lawsuit drags on for three years, unlike COVID or Canada Day protests, as youth unemployment hits 11.2%. PHAC’s new president, Nancy Hamzawi ($296K salary), lacks transparency, fueling skepticism over Winnipeg lab allegations and climate claims, suggesting federal agencies prioritize DEI and greenwashing over accountability—undermining trust in governance.

Welcome to Rebel Roundup, our daily news and opinion live stream, where we give you raw, unfiltered news items of the day, provide some commentary, and also give our audience an opportunity to engage with us directly through a few different ways.
I am hosting and filling in today for our regular host, Chief Editor Sheila Gunread.
I'm Tamara Ugalini, and I'm joined today by our regular Rebel correspondent and friend, Lise Merrell from Saskatchewan.
How are you doing over there, Lise?
Well, hello, my darling, Tamara Ugalini.
I'm doing great.
It is a beautiful day in Saskatchewan.
And yes, our beloved Sheila Gunread is taking some well-deserved time away from the show today.
So I'm just so delighted, though, to be here with you.
And we have a jam-packed, action-packed show for our viewers today.
Yoel, the news never stops and neither do we at Rebel News.
So it's great to be here with you, Dolph.
Yeah, the wheels, they say the wheels of justice are slow turning and the wheels of news and media are fast turning.
So fast that oftentimes I'm like, I'm in this business and I can't even keep up.
But today we're going to talk about the convoy lawsuit, you know, with all the people who are extremely triggered by phantom honking.
We'll get an update from that liberals 25% immigrant labor goal and carnives NATO spending and some revised targets.
So you can join us on a few different platforms.
We are streaming on Rumble, which many of our supporters like to support because it was the free speech platform throughout the COVID hysteria and the unprecedented censorship and silencing of any sort of dissident voices.
So you can give us what's called a Rumble rant over there.
NATO and Critical Minerals00:16:26

We will read your Rumble rant here live on air.
And it's a great way for us to get some feedback from our viewers, hear from you directly.
And of course, have your voice heard and shared on a larger platform on YouTube, where we have been remonetized.
And I won't say anything further because I don't want to jinx it.

So again, $5 or more and we will read your comment on air.
And I believe we are also streaming on X.
So without further ado, I think we'll hit right into the Carney topic because he, so as our fairly newly minted prime minister, hailed himself as a liberal outsider when really he's been on the inside this entire time.
He is now saying that Canada will be able to meet new NATO spending targets.
And we will do that, apparently, by developing critical minerals.
Something that people have been saying for, well, probably decades.
Remove the bureaucracy, get the red tape out of the way.
Have a vast array of minerals and resources to drive and develop from, so let's get into, get into them.
But anyway uh, NATO has asked basically, for um its members to commit even higher defense spendings and, given the global political situation, I can see why um, but previously it had been a two percent and now it's being requested that we boost that spending up to five percent.
Um, so Mark Carney just said at the annual leaders summit uh, that happened in the Netherlands that um, he's going to to utilize our critical minerals by doing so.
But I wanted to point out a fun little tweet, or post, I should say um, that was in response to so this originally comes from the National POST that uh, Carney will develop critical minerals to pay for our NATO defense spending.
And friends of science bless their little hearts.
Um, they said yeah, in 18 years, Carney.
Carney at that point will be 78 years old, because the average lead time for mining and to get them off the ground and to start them is 18 years right, and that's a very it's a very long and complicated process.
Yeah, these are, these aren't projects that can turn over overnight.
Right, we're not turning new mines over on a dime.
This takes years of development to even hit the attempt to break ground.
And we have the liberals with all of their you know climate alarmism and red tape standing in the way that I mean he's committing us to billions of dollars in in new spending when we potentially won't even reap the benefits of that for another you know decade or two.
This um, as somebody who claims to be a um, a banker, you would think you'd have the wherewithal to recognize that.
Well, and I, and I just wonder um, if the provinces have been consulted because, as it pertains to critical minerals, all critical minerals under the ground in Canada are natural resources and natural resources.
Natural resources are firmly in the purview of the provinces.
The natural resources that are underground in any given province are the property of that province.
So, have the provinces signed on?
Are the people, are the residents of the provinces, okay with their natural resources?
These are resources that should benefit the people of the individual provinces.
Are people okay with their resources being mined and exploited to benefit NATO, or would they rather their natural resources be developed and sold and then benefit the people of the individual provinces?
Because I know that, coming from a very, very resource rich province Saspatchuan, we are absolutely full of uranium.
We are absolutely full of potash and critical minerals that that uh, The world needs right now.
Are we okay with exploiting all of those resources and then just giving all the money to NATO?
Like, is this going to be a net benefit for the provinces?
And I'm not sure that that question is being asked or answered by the federal government.
Well, he kind of loosely, in a roundabout way, which is typical political speak, addressed some of that.
And so, in this, and I have it pulled up as the CTV news article that about, I don't know, I'm going to say about a third of the way down in the article, Carney says that some of this spending counts toward the 5%.
So, this is NATO wants Canada to commit $150 billion this year, which would be 5% of Canada's GDP.
Whereas last year, we spent $41 billion on defense.
And Carney says that some of the spending for that counts towards the 5%.
In fact, a lot of it would count toward that 5% because of infrastructure spending.
It's ports and railroads and other ways to get these minerals out.
So, he's like selling it to Canadians as though we'll help by developing the infrastructure at the same time as we extract these minerals and then use it to fund NATO defense targets.
He says that's something that benefits the Canadian economy, but is also side part of our NATO, our new NATO responsibilities.
So, he's trying to quell those concerns right out of the gate, it seems.
Let's do we have a video of Mark Carney talking about this that we want to watch?
Of course, we do.
Let's go.
Here's Sharney saying how hard we're working to ensure this spending takes place.
Canada is already beginning working towards a target of 3.5% of GDP by 2035 by expanding our plan to invest in the Canadian Armed Forces, to modernize our military equipment and technology, to help build up our own defense and security industries, as well as to diversify our defense partnerships.
We're also working to ensure that we are spending 1.5% of our GDP in defense and security-related infrastructure.
So, that means ports, airports, infrastructure to support the development and exportation of critical minerals, telecommunications, and emergency preparedness systems.
These investments serve our defense as well as protecting the readiness and resilience to protect Canadians.
Yeah, I don't hear anything really about actually investing.
Oh, do you have one of those ankle biters, Lise?
I thought she was out of the room.
I'm so sorry, guys.
Meet Thunder.
Meet Thunder, the barkiest dog on planet Earth.
Dog is a fitting name.
Going back to Mark Carney, you know, it'd be really great if the government of Canada and the Liberal Party of Canada wouldn't have underspent on defense, on military, on critical resource development and on infrastructure for the past 10 years.
You know, there are a million ways that we could have saved money or could be saving money by eviscerating DEI programs, by eviscerating climate programs, by saving all of the money that we're throwing, that we're throwing hand over fist at all of these pointless federal government programs.
And now we're behind the eight ball and having to rush to make up for the lack of funding that we have.
Like I see this nothing as nothing but a but a, you know, throwing, throwing money that we have elsewhere after making 10 years of mistakes.
Like this is craziness that we would be rushing to make up for our shortfall in NATO funding.
If this was a priority, it should have been a priority 10 years ago.
Like this isn't, this isn't rocket science.
We shouldn't have, we shouldn't have neglected our defense spending, our military spending, our infrastructure spending.
We'd be in a lot better position had we not wasted all of this money over the last 10 years.
Not to mention all of the billions of dollars that we've funneled into proxy wars.
Oh, just crazy.
We should neglect our own defense system.
So nearly half of our military equipment is unavailable and unserviceable.
Right.
Nearly half.
Not ready, not ready for any sort of, not ready for any sort of active situation where the military would be needed.
And yet, are we to assume that Canada has no other issues that real Canadians need addressed right now?
Our homelessness problem, our health care issues, our education issues.
Are we assuming that this is the best use of taxpayer money?
No, what Mark Carney is saying is Canadians be damned.
We're going to spend our money on rearming Europe and going into funding other proxy wars.
This is patent insanity.
And nowhere in this discussion have I heard anything about boosting military capacity, like our actual troops on the ground military, with only 58% of the armed forces, the Canadian Armed Forces members available to mobilize.
So that is just a little bit more than half.
Less than half of our equipment is actually usable.
So I'd say Canada's in pretty dire straits heading into any sort of geopolitical conflict that, I mean, is already happening across the pond.
And this is very unsettling times, especially as Kearney commits billions out of and will fund that with projects that haven't even broken ground and likely won't break ground for at least five to 10 years, whose rewards we can't reap the benefits of for another roughly two decades.
This is crazy talk.
Yeah, Canada is in a disaster situation and we're in no position to offer help to other nations.
But like to just put a fine point on it, we're in no position to offer help to other nations when we're not even taking care of ourselves.
So.
Yeah, and meanwhile, we have Prime Minister Carney up here on the global stage saying basically that Canada identifies as European.
Let's show this little clip.
Most European and non-European nations.
That's not necessarily a comment about the historical makeup of the country, but it's the relative value set, the value on liberty, the value on democracy, the importance of solidarity.
We have similar social welfare systems, the importance we put on sustainability, our ability to mutualize, in other words, to work with others and protect our belief in a rules-based international system, which the footprint of that is shrinking, but it's not immaterial.
And we're helping to build that with Europe.
So, and the way we see it, if I could frame it, final comment, and this can be a bigger discussion at the right point.
Part of what Europe is focused on as members of the European Union is the so-called ever-closer union.
We're looking for a closer partnership with that union.
So yes, we cooperate much more clearly and broadly to our mutual benefit, but not as a member, but along that continuum.
That starts dance.
Not as a member, but we'll get there.
We'll get there.
That might be the stupidest thing I've ever heard, to be completely honest, Tamara, because not only are we not European, okay, we're not anywhere close to being the most non-European European nation.
We are North Americans.
That is what makes us different from Europeans.
And for old stock Canadians, like you and I, so many of our ancestors left Europe because of their issues back in the day.
So whether it be war, whether it be famine, whether it be religious persecution, whatever it was to bring your people to North America from Europe, we escaped that.
We don't want to rejoin Europe in some sort of partnership.
Their problems, European problems are distinctly European problems.
We have our own issues that we need to deal with.
And as long as we have an eye with Mark Carney with his three passports concentrating on the issues of Europe, we're not going to be able to take care of our people here.
And so this should be real concerning to Canadians that we're sidling up to the Europeans and also and also absorbing their issues as our issues.
They are not.
Yeah, exactly.
And this is so unsurprising coming from Carney, who just back earlier this year basically addressed global leaders and said, speaking as a European, I'm not sure if we can pull up that clip, but a few times, several times now, Carney has gotten up on the global stage and said, well, you know, as a European or I identify as a European, and now he's taking that rhetoric,
speaking on behalf of the whole country and aligning Canada more with Europe than is our traditional partnership with the United States, you know, as he's campaigned on that wedge here.
Yeah, let's just play this quick clip of Carney saying that he is a European.
Mark, you look like you were about to.
Yeah, I was a telling.
As a European, you know, as a European European, actually.
Oh, you are an Irish citizen.
Yeah.
So there you go.
Speaking as a European, I like to say falling.
Mark, you look like you were.
Yeah, there he is at the World Economic Forum speaking as a European ahead of his bid for prime minister, which of course, you know, that he currently sits as.
But what I was going to say is that Carney campaigned on the wedge issue of driving that wedge between us and the United States and saying things like the relationship that as we know it with the United States is effectively and officially over and completely disregarding that close partnership and allyship that we used to have with the United States since our inception.
And geographically speaking, it would make most logical sense that we would continue to have that strong tie and that mutual kind of defense agreement in place instead of relying on Europeans for, especially, again, from a geographical standpoint, it just, it doesn't make any sense.
And ideologically, I would say that many Canadians are more aligned with the United States than they are the European Union.
Without question, we have culture, we have language, we have history together.
Who are we more closely aligned to?
Of course, it's the United States of America.
And yet we have this guy who's in bed literally and figuratively with the Europeans dragging us into a cultural situation that I'm not sure Canadians would be comfortable with.
Why Canada Chooses America00:05:21
Well, nobody voted to become European.
Like, how is this being allowed to happen?
Especially as, you know, Trump's rhetoric with Canada becoming the 51st state and all of this thing.
Carney's response was, you know, Canada's sovereign and we will never become the 51st state.
There are some things that just aren't for sale.
And now he like, whatever happened to Canada as a sovereign nation if we're just going to be, you know, included just unofficially with the European Union under his leadership.
I mean, all of that now just goes out the window, I guess, because Mark Carney said so.
Yeah, yep.
And this is a real concern for Canada.
It should be.
It should be.
We should not be dragged into European issues, European conflicts or European shortfalls.
Because as we know, Europe has gone through a couple of the same decade as Canada has with their far left extremist governments.
And do we want to follow in the footsteps of Great Britain, for instance, that is imprisoning people for social media posts, that is being overtaken by mass migration, that has seen corruption, the likes that the world has never, ever seen?
Do we want to follow?
Like, are those the best arbiters of Western society?
I would argue not.
I would argue the United States with its defense mechanisms and with its culture is much more closely aligned to Canada than Europe ever will be.
Well, and it seems like that's the disconnect between the people and the government.
The government wants this, you know, as Carney was said, and I think it was just, you guys discussed it on the live stream yesterday, the new world order.
And then it just all those things.
That's the censorship.
That's the world government.
And it means an erosion of democracy, an erosion of hearing from the people and their voices.
And so you need the censorship.
You need the mass migration.
And you need the government to tell you and dictate what you can and cannot do.
And yet we have the people who are saying, no, we don't want any of these things.
And you have the United States that has a much louder freedom-minded population who Canadians are increasingly aligning closer with while the government tries to say, no, no, no, we're going over to Europe and I'm going to make it my priority to head over there on my first tour as prime minister, which Mark Carney did, rather than go down south and meet with President Trump.
So the government, yes, is trying to align us in that way.
Well, the actual people on the ground are saying, no, hold on a minute.
This isn't the direction that we want to go.
Yeah, well, I do not want foreign elitists to be able to dictate what we do here in Canada.
And nor do any of us.
But that's exactly what we're walking into here.
That's exactly what they're walking us into here is a new world order of top-down governance from internet.
You think it's bad trying to get a hold of your government and make them listen to you now?
Wait until they're European based.
Wait until they're European based.
I mean, how are the people ever, ever going to be able to hold their governments to account when they're unreachable, when they're on such a high pedestal that you can never, ever get in contact with them?
This sounds like a nightmare to me.
Like this is just, this is, we're walking into a nightmare situation.
And absolutely.
We have a couple super chats.
I'll just get to before we move on.
Nana, a week gives $10.
Thank you very much.
Why is the government planning on developing our resources and related infrastructure?
Have the liberals had any success in their taxpayer-funded bankruptcy schemes like funding cricket farms or electric vehicles?
Yeah, that is a really great point.
History is any indication.
Anything the government touches just crumbles.
Well, it's three times more expensive and mired in controversy.
Like, oh, we don't have a successful federal infrastructure project yet.
What makes us think that they're going to start now?
They're just going to spend our money at three times the pace of the private sector and screw us in the end.
Oh, good.
Exactly.
Thanks, Central Banker Mark Carney, Outsider.
Snow 181 gives $5.
Thank you very much.
We need more doggo makes hearing the crapgasm that is the feds easier to hear.
Yeah, at least more thunder on the stream, please.
Moonglow gives $2.
He has no idea or concept of history, just lies.
And I assume that is in reference to Mark Carney.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, they've lived up in their ivory towers, right?
He's been an ivory tower dwelling his entire life.
So I would imagine that the things that plague the little the little people are of no relevance to someone.
No concept.
Absolutely no concept of how terrible our quality of life in Canada has plummeted over the last 10 years because they're largely untouchable.
These are an untouchable elite class of people who are completely untethered from the reality of the rest of us.
And this is a problem.
This is a real problem.
CSIS Warns of Vulnerability00:15:50
There you have it.
At least nails it.
We're going to hit a quick ad break and then we'll come back for some more.
Do you agree with me?
It is time to make Canada great again.
And that is why we at Rebel News have teamed up with MCGA Hats to introduce, well, the fashion sensation of 2025.
Oh, and by the way, these beautiful hats, they are made in Canada.
We don't rely on cheap imports coming over from China.
So what are you waiting for, folks?
Show your pride.
This is the perfect thing for a patriot to wear, or maybe there's a patriot in your life that you would like to gift such a hat.
Please go to mcgahats.ca.
That's mcgahats.ca.
Don't be shy about it.
Wear this cap.
Let everybody know you want to make Canada great again.
Canadians know the national anthem.
They stand in silence to remember those who died for this country.
But not every Canadian knows their rights and freedoms.
The Freedom Passport will change that.
It looks and feels like a Canadian passport, but contains the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in a portable, easy to read format.
The Freedom Passport.

All right.
So next up, we have a post here from yesterday from CSIS, Canada's security intelligence, that despite increased public awareness of foreign interference and espionage activities in Canada, hostile states continued advancing their interests in ways that are injurious to Canada in 2024.
And so this comes from the CSIS public report.
Of course, it's based or it's from last year, just published.
And I just wanted to pull and highlight from that report.
It's kind of expanding on what they wrote there.
So in 2024, and maybe I just have to share this link here so that we can pull it up on the screen.
Sorry, just give me a moment to organize myself.
That's okay.
All right.
In 2024, CSIS actively investigated espionage, foreign interference, and terrorist threats.
And for the first time in many years, also made concerted efforts to counter sabotage.
Overall threats to Canada's national security have increased and are intensified.
Most significantly, CSIS agrees with U.S. and UK intelligence agency statements that never in our combined histories have we faced threats of such magnitude simultaneously.
So this is really unprecedented and highlights the concerted effort of the foreign threats, interference and espionage that is hitting all three of these countries simultaneously at the same time.
Yeah, they sure are.
But then at the same time, who is supposed to be taking care of this?
CESIS, I do believe this is you.
And from the city, looking at you.
Yeah, from the CSIS diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy of 2022, they say through programs and policies, DEI initiatives address systemic barriers, which prevent some employees from excelling.
And it goes on and on and on and on and on.
So here we have CSIS telling us that we are in an unprecedented and vulnerable position.
Okay, that's what they're saying.
And on the other hand, they are saying, but we are absolutely committed to DEI.
This is what we are going to concentrate on on the ground in the CSIS community in Canada.
And everybody, we are going to ensure equity and fairness and safety and to ensure that DEI policies become a reality for every CSIS employee.
So are we sensing the disconnect, Canada?
Are we understanding what's gone wrong here?
What we have here is a federal agency that is wholly committed to initiatives, DEI initiatives that fall completely outside of the mandate of their agency.
And as long as we're concentrating on DEI initiatives within CESIS proper, we are going to keep being in a vulnerable position, Canada.
The reason why we have foreign bad actors operating within Canada's borders, interfering in our elections and putting Canadians in danger is because our public institutions have been so captured by these crazy woke initiatives that the federal government rolled in and funded PS and gave permission to undertake.
And there is going to be no end to the craziness as long as they're as long as they're committed to this.
CSIS, CSIS, CSIS undertakes land acknowledgements.
I'm not joking.
This is on their website.
This is from the CSIS website.
CSIS offices in Canada are located on various ancestral and traditional lands.
In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that all Indigenous people have crossed Canada and their connection to these lands.
And then they give the rolling list of regions, why we need diversity to succeed, CESIS says.
And then it gives this great big long explanation.
So we have at the very head of CSIS, like the director of CSIS is a DEI hire.
And what they're telling us is nothing could be worse.
Canada is in an extraordinarily vulnerable position and everything is on fire and burning.
Well, I wonder why.
Yeah, that's a really great point.
And I think that Canada has been vulnerable for a long time.
And we've seen that continued erosion over the last 10 years of liberal rule and reign of terror.
And as evidenced by those ridiculous policies that hire people based on their self-identifying self-ID politics rather than the actual merits of who's best for the job and no matter what their skin color may be.
And so now we're at a point where we're no longer actually just vulnerable, that these are real instituted, implemented threats that need to be immediately addressed.
I mean, or worse.
And so we've left that vulnerability open for the better part of 10 years, a decade, maybe even longer.
And now it's reaching an unignorable head.
Yep.
So how can you pay attention or concentrate on hostile foreign actors within the country and outside the country when you are dedicated to, and I quote, creating a safe and inclusive work environment where values of DEI are embraced.
Serve as a role model by encouraging employee participation in DEI initiatives.
Support employees who are victims of discrimination, harassment, and disrespectful behaviors.
This is what our Canadian intelligence agency says is their priority, not keeping a thumb on the bad guys, but protecting employees from disrespectful behaviors.
Well, and it also prioritizes the hiring of people from these very states that are being flagged by our security intelligence as interferers in our democracy.
So what is it going to be here?
Exactly that.
They've been 2007 marks the inception of CSIS's first DEI committee.
So they've been at this.
Okay.
They've been at the DEI crazy train since 2007.
And now you're telling us in 2024, 2025, that things are awful and nobody is able to do that.
Everybody is stressed.
Nobody's able to do.
And P.S., the bad guys are running roughshod over the country.
Well, no kidding.
No kidding.
Just wild.
Who thought we would be except for all of us?
All of the normals who are saying, we don't want our intelligence agencies to be focused on DEI.
We want you to get the bad guys and keep them out of the country.
Make sure that we have fair elections and make sure that they don't influence what the rest of us normal people want for the country.
We want you guys to keep us safe.
And here's, here comes CSIS with their DEI committees.
Like, my God, just like, stop, like, send the meteor.
Just send it.
Meanwhile, we also have the Canadian Border Agency.
So another failed federal agency that prioritizes DEI hires and really loves having drag events.
There's been multiple footage releases over the last few years during this pride season that we all are so joyously forced to partake in.
Oh, sure.
30% of Canada border service agents getting lap dances from drag queens.
But anyway, I digress.
CBSA, this comes from the Global Mail, is now investigating whether suspected senior Iranian officials were allowed entry into Canada.
I mean, you don't say.
Canadian border authorities say they're investigating or taking or taking enforcement action in 66 cases involving suspected senior Iranian officials who may have been allowed into Canada despite a law.
Of course, there's a law that has not been upheld that bars them from entering the country or remaining in it.
And so of those 66, they say that 20 have been identified as inadmissible.
And then the rest of them, I think, are just kind of expected to leave based on good faith.
Okay.
Yeah.
Well, we know from also from CBSA official numbers, which, I mean, they're official, but they really have no idea.
It's anywhere from 200 to 500,000, half a million refugees who are not eligible to stay in the country that are supposed to leave and have been given deportation orders that they just lost track of.
We just don't know where they are.
Yep.
But when we, not to sound too much like a broken record, but when the CBSA, this is a quote, welcomes applications from all equity and diversity groups and takes concrete actions to end racism and discrimination by indebted by embedding equality into our culture programs and policies, what do you think is going to happen?
You think that the people that belong to all of these ID groups are going to kick out people also from their same ID group?
Like what happened to prioritizing Canadians to work at CBSA?
If we had people with dogs in the race, perhaps 200,000 to 500,000 people wouldn't have even made it past our front door.
And yet, this is what we've got with another federal government agency that's wholly committed to DEI and crazy and crazy woke initiatives.
They have gender-based analysis plus indigenous advisory circles, LGBTQ2 plus advisory committees, the next generation network, persons with disabilities and advisory committee, visible minorities advisory committee, and women's advisory committee.
What does this have to do with protecting our border, CBSA?
What exactly does this have to do with protecting our border?
This sounds like public sector unions just running amok going, well, we need to make work for all of our people that can't work, but are dedicated to DEI.
Either you're dedicated to safeguarding Canada's borders or you're dedicated to DEI.
You can't have both.
Well, and it says join a team that listens.
I'd like to join the team that's like the voice of reason and rational, logical thinking.
Like, do we have one of those?
Is there anybody out there at the CBSA that has a logic, rational thinking group or board?
Because I'd like to be part of it.
The Common Sense Committee?
Yeah.
The CSC?
How many people have joined that?
Oh, that's right.
They don't have a common sense committee.
They have a, what was the best one here?
Well, the women's, the women.
So the next generation network, the gender-based analysis plus committee.
That's what CBSA has.
I mean, Canada, that like not to say that every single public institution that's funded by federal dollars is an absolute complete laughing joke, but they are, but they are.
And they're wondering.
And then CBSA will be like, how come how come public trust in our institution has dropped this much?
Well, because you tell us what you're doing on the internet and then expect this to you.
You expect the borders while you're all in your, in your struggle sessions and in your uh Lgbt, QIA committees.
You expect the border to police itself.
This is why public's, the public's trust in you has plummeted to unprecedented levels.
May as well, just do yourself a flavor favor and flush.
Okay CBSA, just flush, start again.
What did you say?
It's the next, it's a next generation committee, a next generation network.
Yeah, they have seven committees and networks led by senior level champions.
Okay, so their senior, their most experienced people are are leading these committees and networks and this is a quote to ensure that all voices are heard.
How listen to the bad guys on the border?
Yeah well, how about listening to the bad guys on the border who say they're going to do us dirty in Canada?
How about that?
How about start listening to those guys instead?
CBSA, just wild.
Well, and speaking of this next generation network, which I mean, I guess if you can infer anything from people who don't have the ability to vote or buy alcohol, Canada's youngest adults, this comes from the National Post, are more likely to trust Iran and its current regime, according to a poll.
They seem to have a much softer view on Iran's intentions and the intentions of the Iranian regime.
Why Trust Iran's Regime?00:05:17
says Association FOR Canadian Studies, Jack Jedwab.
Um, which?
So this is just absolute crazy craziness here.
Um, and I want to just pull back, go back to that CBSA, the article that we're just referring to because um, so the federal government expanded this measure to not allow, which obviously hasn't worked, because now they're saying that there are a bunch of senior level um Iranian officials that were allowed entry into Canada, so they attempted to expand the measure to not allow them into the country.
Um, for anyone that served in the Iranian government from june 2003, which was the date that that Iranian Canadian photojournalist, Zahra Kazami, was arrested while taking pictures outside of a prison in Tehran, she was tortured while in detention and died a few weeks later, and so I was like who was this?
And so I was looking her up this morning and that story, what that woman endured um, I think it was 19, almost 20 days total that she was detained by the regime was absolutely horrific, and for us to have young Canadians more likely to trust this same regime is absolutely a failure of our education system to teach history and what actually happens in these countries.
Girl, it's horrible.
Horrible.
This is absolutely the predictable result of Canadian education, the entire industry, the education industry in Canada, indoctrinating children for an entire generation.
So you give kids 12 years of left-wing indoctrination, of struggle sessions, of left-wing activism.
And this is the predictable result.
We have kids who are sympathetic to Iran.
This is a terrorist state.
These are bad guys who do nothing good for the world.
These are militant, militant bad guys.
And yet our kids are being shoveled through an education system where they're told, oh, but they're just oppressed.
Those the Iranian people are just the country of Iran has been so maligned and so, you know, so downtrodden.
We must join the resistance and we must support them in their resistance.
This is what we're getting, Canada.
It is, it's actually, I know I sound like a broken record, but this should be of real concern.
This should be a real concern to Canada that we've got a bunch of little left-wing activists being churned out by our public education systems.
Well, and just look, look no further than and maybe take up some Googling than the Red Guard and Maoism.
And that will give you a good indication of the trajectory that many of our publicly funded students are currently on.
I was shocked.
And the story of that photojournalist who used her Iranian government issued ID.
So she was a dual citizen.
So that's how she was able to get back into the country.
And she was photographing.
And I forget what the conflict was at the time, but the horrific treatment that she suffered while she died in their care.
And how many, show of hands, everybody.
Show of hands, everybody.
How many people heard of this story before this moment?
Because I certainly didn't.
I certainly didn't.
Oh, this would be a great story to dig into.
Tamira, thanks so much.
And some of the things like the autopsy report, it's horrible.
So any young Canadians or young adults who may think that they can trust this regime should probably just have a look at her story and see how things end up.
For anyone who even tries to take photos, she was only taking photos outside of a prison and documenting the families kind of as they were coming and going and people, because there it's illegal to photograph prisons.
So she said, I'm not photographing the prison itself.
I'm just documenting the families coming and going with some of the prisoners at the time.
She was following their stories and their families.
And yeah, so they framed her as a spy that got in illegally on the guise of being a journalist, which she was a photojournalist.
She was not a spy.
And she even, when she was approached about taking photos of the prison, she was, they demanded her film.
And she was really nervous that that was going to put a target on the backs of the families that she was photographing, coming and going from the prison.
So she said, you can have my camera pulled out, exposed her film to the light.
So it was no longer usable.
And she said, but the film is mine and I've exposed it to the light.
It's no longer good.
Take my camera.
And they detained her.
And then she died 19 days later after being suffering severe torture and absolutely horrific treatment.
Well, that's how they treat women in Iran, though, mind you.
Okay, this is how this is how they still treat women in Iran.
You show your hair, you're punished.
You fall outside of the approved narrative, you're tortured.
You're thrown in, you're imprisoned and tortured.
Why Judges Matter00:09:13
And yet this is what our young people in Canada have been trained to embrace.
Yeah.
It's unconscionable.
It's unforgivable.
Where are, again, education is the purview of our provincial governments.
Where are our provincial governments intervening while the left, while the left undertakes a mass campaign of childhood indoctrination?
Where are they?
Yeah, especially here in Ontario.
Well, and you also in Saskatchewan claims to have conservative provincial governments.
Well, I don't think we're anything close to being that, especially in Ontario under Doug Ford's reign.
Well, even in so-called conservative provinces, our governments have been so slow on the eight ball.
I think the only person who's done anything really meaningful to combat this plague on our kids, and really it is a plague on our kids, is the province of Alberta, who's been on the forefront of education reform.
They have to follow the child funding in Alberta.
So your child in Alberta, if you pull them out of the public indoctrination center and put them in a private charter school, the funding from the province follows your child the day they leave the public school experience.
And that should be law across the country of Canada, because this is just, it's just, it's just unhinged what's happening in public education in Canada.
Completely agree.
Random, small tidbit, just a personal tangent on that one.
I tried to bring that to the attention of my local MPP and why.
It's not even pushing necessarily for school choice, but asking why we don't have that option here in Ontario.
And they quite literally have no, like they cannot answer it, but they also don't care to look into why that may be.
They're just, there's straight up no response.
They do not care.
They don't want to look into it further.
They're happy to just go along to get along.
So that's the responses that you get from your provincial officials if you try to simply ask, why don't we have this option here in Ontario?
Well, it's going to come back to bite them because what they're doing is letting a whole generation of children be wasted on leftist activism.
And in one generation, those little indoctrinated children will be voters.
And guess who they won't be voting for?
Conservative politicians, you.
Yeah.
There you go.
Heed the warning, please.
Anyway, we got to hit some of these headlines before we wrap things up.
So I want to throw to this Ottawa citizen report, the lawsuit against the Truckers Convoy to proceed in Ottawa, Toronto judge rules.
So for anybody who isn't aware, there is a lawsuit, a class action lawsuit against some of the main names in the trucker convoy from 2022, including Tamara Leach, Chris Barber, oh, I can't Tom, Tom Arazo, and a few other of the kind of the biggest names of the organization aspect of the truckers convoy.
And so they're seeking millions in damages for, you know, as I mentioned at the beginning, basically phantom honking, like these, the noise that was generated.
And I think diesel fumes also is part of their claim against the truckers.
But they were trying to get the court in Toronto to hear the case because they thought that Ottawa judges would have would somehow be compromised.
So here the subheading reads, lawyers for the truckers argued that everyone who worked at the Ottawa courthouse, including its judges, witnessed the occupation of downtown.
And so this Toronto judge ruled that the proceedings in this proposed class action lawsuit against the truckers convoy will actually be held in Ottawa, which was the city most affected, and they call it its mayhem.
So that comes from Justice Benjamin Glustein dismissed a change of venue motion filed by the defendants who wanted the proceedings transferred to ensure procedural fairness, of course.
Yeah, well, this is what happens when liberal donors are appointed judges.
And according to the National Post, this was done by the National Post last year.
The overwhelming majority of judges who were appointed by the Liberal Liberal government or Liberal Party of Canada, excuse me, are also donors to the Liberal Party of Canada.
So add judicial reform to the long, long, long list of issues that need to be fixed in Canada.
Because are we under any illusions that the people that are appointed judges in Canada are going to take the side of the government when it comes to issues like this?
I'd be really interested to know if the judge in this case has donated to the Liberal Party of Canada.
I'd be real interested to know.
Because if not him, if not him, then his friends.
And if not, you know what I mean?
Like it's just such a closed, incestuous group that how can you ever get a fair shake if the judges that are presiding over these cases are agents of the Liberal Party of Canada?
And the truth is you can't.
And we're seeing this play out in real time.
In a fair and just world, Tamara Leach, Chris Barber, Tom Morazzo would not be having to defend themselves in this way.
Like, of course not.
The people of Ottawa, if you're living in Ottawa proper, you should know that living in the nation's capital is going to give you experiences that are sort of outside the norm.
Do you see these people suing people that participate in Canada Day celebrations?
No, no, you don't.
And yet Canada Day celebrations would upset the downtown Ottawa area for at least the amount of time as the Freedom Convoy did.
And it's just crazy that this is still being wielded against our freedom fighters from the West.
Just crazy.
This is a laptop class taking a stand against protesters in our nation's capital, quite literally the place where you go to protest government overreach, which is exactly what the truckers were doing.
And this class action is seeking damages for personal harm, financial loss, experienced by residents, businesses, and workers in downtown during the noisy, disruptive protests in February 2022.
I'm sorry, but what about all the personal harm and financial losses that people suffered in COVID?
The hands of public health diktats, forced closures of your business, forced restrictions of social gatherings.
The list of infringements into people's personal lives that were unjustified, unnecessary, and unscientific has never been addressed here.
So where's the class action seeking damages for all of that?
That's what I'd like to know.
Well, sure.
And especially since it was deemed the invocation of the Emergencies Act, I mean, deemed a violation of charter rights in Canada.
How is this lawsuit being allowed to go forward?
Well, so it hasn't actually yet.
And sorry if I made that mistake, but it is still only, and it's three years later.
So like, what is going on?
Get your stuff together.
It's a proposed class action.
It has yet to be certified, which is a necessary step for it to proceed.
And if it does go ahead, the lawsuit unnaturally promises to be complex.
So I think this was like a way for them to try to get that certification happening faster.
Because as I said, it's been three years in the making now.
Your lawsuit still isn't even certified.
They were trying to get it changed over to Toronto.
The Toronto judge said, nope, send it back to Ottawa.
And so now here they are back, you know, two steps forward or one step forward, two steps back.
Get yourself together here, guys, and proceed with the lawsuit or drop it.
Well, I suppose my point was, why hasn't this thing been thrown out?
Why hasn't it stopped and been thrown out?
I mean, I think they worry that it will be.
That's why it hasn't been certified yet, because they're like, oh, wait, as the law, the judicial starts to shift and you see some of these people winning their cases and things being thrown out and some of this stuff ruled as being unconstitutional, unjustified.
They're probably reeling now going, oh, wait a minute.
Do we even have a leg to stand on anymore?
Well, they know the answer to that, don't they?
They know the answer to that.
We're just going to waste a couple million trying to figure it out.
No big deal.
Sure.
Why not?
Clog up our judicial system with another frivolous thing.
Even more so than it already is.
I'm just going to hit a couple of these super chats.
We have Sweet One Lou 1968 gives $10.
Thanks very much.
Leftist Policies Cringing Me00:13:57
So tired of liberal double speak, say one thing, do opposite.
Everything they address gets absolutely worse.
Alberta referendum vote.
Yes.
Oh, buddy.
Yeah.
Yes, buddy.
Yeah.
I think that'll be a strong precedent to set what is happening in Alberta.
We have JP Power gives $10.
The leftist policy making me cringe most is this nonsense of putting food in kids' bellies.
Ew, school food programs are communism.
In Canada, we don't have extreme poverty like other places.
Shame.
Correction, though, we used to not have extreme poverty like other places, but after 10 years of liberal destruction, we're there.
There are families who are struggling to put food on the table and in their kids' bellies.
But I don't think that that's, you know, the government obviously disagrees, but I don't think that is a place where the government needs to swoop in and save the day.
No, you can just deal with your failed policies and spending sprees, rein it all in and let Canadians make money again.
Yeah, school food programs are not the answer to this issue.
If the government was truly interested in addressing childhood hunger, and it is a concern, the majority of people accessing food banks in Canada are children.
But if the government of Canada was at all interested in alleviating childhood hunger, they would top up the child tax benefit that hits every parent's bank account with a food subsidy.
I'm just so happy that this topic came up because a little over a year and a half ago, I started bringing my kids home for lunch and I just call it home for lunch.
You're coming home for lunch.
This is what we used to do in Canada.
If you weren't being bused in, okay, if it was, if it was close enough to walk, you left school.
And the ways that it has benefited my kids, you guys, I can't even tell you.
Just peripherally, the reason why I started bringing them home for lunch was because I found out that one of my kids was in therapy for over two years at lunchtime at school without me knowing.
So this is another.
So listen, when a government says we're going to unroll a nationwide school program, you know what they're going to do to your kids over that lunch hour?
Indoctrinate them more.
Bring your kids home for lunch from school.
They do better for the break.
They do better with a little bit of exercise and you can check in with them midday.
So that is my advice to all Canadian parents.
Well, and what kind of food are they feeding these kids?
Is it just cheap gruel and grit?
Well, I don't know.
the same meals that they feed prisoners to Barra.
You want your kids to eat prison food?
By all means, sign them up for lunch at school.
But if you want to, if you want your kids to do better and if you want to spend honestly quality time with your kids, check in with them during the day, have a midday check-in, bring them home for lunch.
You can start out by taking them out for lunch once a week.
That's something else that we do.
Three of them have to stay home.
Well, I take one of them out for a special one-on-one lunch.
And it really does make a difference.
It really does make a difference.
Yeah.
Or you could pull them out of the indoctrination centers when you try to bring all of your concerns to your elected officials supposed to be responsible for delivering education and listening to their constituents' concerns.
They repeatedly just ignore you.
So you can all say, I'm done with this system.
And here in Ontario, pulling three kids out of the publicly funded system, that costs the school board roughly $33,000, so roughly $95,000 every year.
That must have felt good.
They're going to feel that one.
But they actually don't care.
They're like, you know what?
We just don't care.
We're just moving right along, full steam ahead.
What's 90 grand at this point?
We'll just continue the engine.
Yeah, in the hundreds of millions.
It doesn't make a drop in the bucket.
But if provinces opened up education for parental choice and education, you would see a mass exodus out of public education, unlike anything else.
And they would have to change what they were doing.
They would have to change what they were doing.
But no, going back to going back to our super chat there, thanks so much for bringing that up so we could go off on this little tier.
On our education rant, because that is what initially brought us together.
Unacceptable fringe also gives $10.
Has anyone noticed all political YouTube channels have taken a view hit ever since the day CBC had Real Talk politics removed from the platform?
Government censorship already without the Harms Act.
Yeah, I haven't noticed myself, but I mean, government censorship, you know, they're working hand in hand with Google, ABC.
With big tech.
Sure.
Sure.
YouTube.
Big tech, big tech, big government, big indoctrination.
It's all working together on the censorship, on the censorship strategy, I guess.
I haven't noticed that either, but now that you've said that, I'll pay attention.
Thanks.
They've definitely loosened the noose, so to speak.
But it's, you know, nothing's in place to prevent it from happening again, right?
You can now question a little bit the, you know, the safe and effective narrative.
You can say certain things depending on how you word them.
YouTube took out, completely scrapped its DEI policy.
So you can criticize gender theory and these sorts of things kind of at the same time that the Tavistock clinic in the UK was being shut down.
So, you know, they have loosened the guidelines and loosened the noose, but the misinformation mongers are all still alive and well.
And, you know, it's only, they're only waiting for the next time to be able to tighten that one back up again.
Yeah, cancel culture is alive and well in Canada, whereas I think that its grip is loosened in the United States.
But my friend Melanie Bennett, who is a researcher in Ontario, who works for Juno News, exposed the Waterloo District School Division of getting teacher training that described family as harmful.
Okay, can you imagine your school division describing you parents as harmful to your own kids?
So she exposed this.
And next thing you know, her Twitter account got blitzed.
Well, maybe the Waterloo School Division had something to say to the government of Canada that then got in touch with X or who knows how that works.
But anyway, they put a, I want to say what they did was claim copyright.
So she published, she published the slides or whatever, whatever teacher training she got her hands on.
And they claimed copyright and then blitzed her account.
So the censorship and PS, I think she's still fighting to get that back.
So everybody, please pray for our friend Melanie Bennett, who does wonderful, wonderful research.
She works for Juno News, but the censorship, the censorship mechanism is alive as well as Canada.
That's not a new tactic by the Waterloo Catholic District School Board, by the way.
They tried to do that to another dad I've interviewed about all the gender nonsense and especially the inappropriate books they have in their libraries for children depicting pretty, what's what, how can I worry about here's here's safe on YouTube.
Well, depicting pretty detailed acts of various adults in varying positions in their school library in full view of very young children.
And they tried to do a similar thing to him.
I don't think they got away with it because of if something was blurred or anyway, I'd have to go back and revisit how exactly they didn't quite snag him on the copyright thing.
But that is not a new tactic that they have that they've used there if that's what actually happened.
So I would love to chat with her more about that.
Like zero transparency in education in Canada, zero transparency.
What these public educators want is what they get.
And there is no end to the devious nature of the way that they work.
There just isn't.
Like it is, it is absolutely crazy.
Canada, if you knew what was happening behind the scenes in public education in Canada, you would lose your minds.
It's gross.
And yet, this is where we find ourselves.
All right, hitting our last headliner here, we have Ottawa setting targets to keep the Canada labor force 25% immigrant.
This comes from Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada, where they've instructed, they're instructed to ensure that one quarter of the labor force is made up of immigrants and refugees.
This comes from the National Post.
You can see there's a screenshot here of the department result indicators.
And so their target is 25% or more, you know, just casually, maybe more, of the Canadian labor force must be made up of immigrants and refugees.
And so this is in the middle of, you know, Canada being in, as they put it here in the article, in a labor crunch.
And now you have the government unveiling these new targets to keep at least a quarter of our country's force filled by immigrants.
It's contained in this new departmental plan that was released last week.
And it's a reduction, apparently, from the extreme highs charted in the immediate aftermath of the COVID pandemic, right?
Because it was just a free-for-all then.
You could just do whatever the heck you wanted, except for meet your friends outside to have a coffee.
It still fixes Canada to a labor market comprised of historically high rates of immigrant and refugee workers.
I mean, I guess I would be delighted if only 25% of our labor force was refugees and new immigrants, okay, delighted.
And yet, Canadian, Canadian youth are unable to find jobs, entry-level jobs, because they are all being taken up by immigrants and refugees.
I would be delighted with only 25%, but like you said, that's just the bare minimum.
If you have eyeballs, okay, and can look around you, you will understand that a great many more than 25% of our labor force is being, especially for entry-level jobs, first sort of first jobs that would help you get your feet wet.
These are taken up by unskilled immigrants and refugees to the country when those jobs belong and should have first right of refusal to Canadians first.
So how about that?
How about if we put a role in where Canadians can be like, you know, we put this out for public tender and no single Canadian applied for it.
So then it's going to go to the refugee and immigration immigrant pool, but we don't, we don't have a government that would stand up for us.
Like well, and there are there are job and companies that do have to do that, but they put the wages so low that no Canadian who has skill or who has an education or who sees how much you need to make to get by in today's economy would apply for that job.
So they do things in a sneaky way to make sure that they don't hire Canadians and they can go for the lower paid unskilled laborer.
Well then add in the temporary foreign worker grants that businesses get.
So it costs them more money to employ actual Canadians than it does to employ refugees or immigrants.
So of course they're going to hire those people first.
They're getting a kickback from the government to do it.
That program has to get scrapped in its entirety.
And I would venture to say that we should be boycotting every company that takes advantage of that program after we've seen how disastrous it's been to the Canadian jobs numbers.
Absolutely.
And I do like that the National Post points out here, it's about halfway through the article, that the unemployment rate and the growth of unemployment has been most noticeable for Canadians under the age of 25.
These are kids just coming out of school, just getting started, just coming into the labor force in a more full-time capacity after completing school, many of whom are facing a summer job market that is one of the worst on record ever.
Youth unemployment is sitting at 11.2%.
And aside from COVID lockdowns, that's the highest it's been since the mid-90s.
Yep.
And typically, you know, typically by the age of 25, you have between five and 10 years of work experience under your belt, whether it be part-time in high school or just after high school with a couple of gigs, side gigs.
Well, young Canadians don't have that opportunity in today's job climate in Canada because all of their jobs have been taken up by immigrants and refugees, courtesy of the government of Canada.
And I belong to a bunch of moms groups online, and one of the most pervasive posts is, I have a teenager or early 20s child looking for work.
Does anybody know of anything?
They've put out hundreds of applications, have had absolutely no luck in securing even an interview.
Or kids that are, and this is really showing the entrepreneurial spirit of young people who are putting together their own small businesses simply because there isn't an opportunity for them to work outside of their own purview right now.
There just are no jobs available to them.
So it's really quite sad.
Yeah, it's really quite sad.
And doesn't instill the elbows up confidence that our current prime minister campaigned on at in the least.
Confidence in Canada's Health Agency Leadership?00:06:39
We have another super chat here to get through.
Bobby underscore S87 gives $20.
It's always nice to see what elbows up actually looks like.
Laugh out loud.
Keep killing it, guys.
Talk to you later.
Thanks, Bobby.
Yeah, elbows up.
Let's get our youth back into the workforce and give them jobs that aren't being thieved away from immigrants and refugees who are coming into the country at record numbers in a way like our social systems cannot tangibly support this.
It's just absolute craziness and chaos that it is creating.
Now let's hit our daily dose of cringe.
Oh gosh, yes.
I wrote this one up yesterday.
Oh, it's so bad.
I actually saw this clip and I was like, oh, I should turn this written piece into a video.
And then it was just such a crazy day that I didn't do it.
And now I'm so regretting that decision to write it up instead of putting this as a video because we have a new president of the public health agency of Canada, Nancy Hamzawi.
I hope I pronounced that correctly.
She is, you know, she's a seasoned bureaucrat.
And so she is replacing, she's the fifth president of the public health agency in five years.
There is a massive turnover at the Public Health Agency of Canada.
And some people were conflating that with Teresa Tam, who's our chief medical officer of health, how she's, you know, her contract is up.
So she's leaving that role.
This is not replacing her.
I don't know who will replace Tam.
If you know, I'd love to hear from you and get the inside scoop on who that will be.
You can send me an email to Mara at rebelnews.com if you know who's going to replace Tam, because I want that name.
But this person works alongside whoever will be the next Tam.
Yay for us.
And so she's coming from the climate change sector of the bureaucracy.
But here, so Ryan Garrison shares this clip of her talking about how the climate is, you know, we're headed for a climate catastrophe, basically.
But the reason why I didn't use this clip is because, and maybe it was a reason why I should have used this clip.
She says um and ah so many times that I couldn't even listen to it.
So I apologize in advance to our viewers who are going to have to endure this alongside Lise for the first time and myself for the second time.
But here, let's listen to Nancy in her uh-um glory.
Survey at this point in time.
How many people have heard the sentence, Canada's climate has changed at twice the rate, the global rate, three times in the north?
How many people have heard that?
So typically, and this is a typical audience, about 90% of people have heard that sentence that has come from Canada's Changing Climate Report.
But that's an indicator of the extent to which others have deemed that to be the truth.
Earlier, we were, someone was asking me, do you face skeptics in your role?
And we do.
So despite the fact that we find 90% on average of people believing that and having the confidence in the science, there's not quite 90%, but a significant proportion of Canadians and global citizens who do not believe that.
And inform us of that view based on the number of doctors.
I sign off in a day.
I can't do it anymore.
This is so cringe.
I can't do it.
I can't even listen.
It's to pick apart what she is even trying to say between all of her ramblings.
How does this person make?
And I just want to throw to the written piece I put up there yesterday.
Yeah.
She is stepping into a $296,000 a year paid for by you and I, the Canadian taxpayer.
That is what her salary and remuneration is every single year.
And that's what we're getting Canada for that almost, you know, over a quarter of a million dollars a year salary.
Yep.
This is a person that whose only experience is participating in struggle sessions where you get to hold the talking stick, right?
Well, I'm just going to hold my talking stick and keep droning on about then having everybody in the room listen to her.
This is a crazy DEI hire.
If we, okay, do we have any confidence in the head of the Canadian Health Agency who says things like, you know, the amount of people who deemed that to be the truth.
So we have a person here who operates on the expertise consensus of her experts, her expert class, okay, of consultants to tell her what they deem to be the truth.
This is what we're going to get at the top of Health Canada.
Ooh, hang on, buddies.
Like, hang on.
With this woman, with this woman in the leader's chair, I think that we could be very, very close to maybe seeing another COVID-like situation.
Like, this is a person who is not going to leave any health crisis go to waste.
That's right.
Well, they say that climate change is going to be the next health crisis.
And so, of course, naturally, we would promote someone who was previously the climate manager at Environment Canada into the president role of the Public Health Agency of Canada.
And I mean, the Public Health Agency of Canada is such a scandal-clad organization of bureaucracy.
Yes.
And they don't speak or answer to any of it.
There's no transparency at the Public Health Agency of Canada.
There's no answering to things like what actually happened at the Winnipeg lab.
Bioabby.
The Chinese spies were frog marched out of there in 2021 after sharing secrets and pathogens with the Chinese Republic.
FedExing pathogens out of the Winnipeg bio lab to the Wuhan lab.
And they're like, there's nothing to see here.
We didn't actually see that.
We didn't know.
The lady was off on a DEI training schedule that day and didn't see that package leave the facility.
Like, this is who is in control.
Again, another federal agency that's so committed to crazy DEI initiatives and climate initiatives and greenwashing initiatives that they don't see the forest for the trees.
Rumble Rants and Rumors00:00:48
I mean, welcome.
Welcome.
Yeah, welcome.
Welcome to Canada.
Just come on in.
You can get all of our jobs.
The companies will be subsidized to hire you and have a look at our manager of public health because she looks really healthy.
Anyway, okay.
Well, I think that concludes our Wednesday stream.
Thanks, everybody, for joining in and for giving us some super chats and super thanks and rumble rants and all of the things.
Everybody behind the scenes who make sure that the stream runs smoothly.
And of course, Elise for joining.
It's always fun to chat, go off on little rants.
We'll be back here, myself and someone else, a rotating cast of hosts tomorrow from 1 to 2 p.m. Eastern.
