Ezra Levant confronts Conservative MP Chris d’Entremont’s sudden 2020 defection to the Liberals, despite his prior warnings about $92B deficits under Mark Carney, calling it a "cowardly" move with no policy rationale. In Kamloops, Mayor Reed Hammer Jack exposes supportive housing failures—four deaths, 95 police files in 2020, and drug-related chaos—demanding audits and recovery-focused reforms. David Menzies reveals theft at Toronto’s LCBO (unreported by staff, ignored by police) as evidence of systemic incompetence, pushing for privatization to restore accountability. The episode underscores betrayal in politics and governance, where empty promises and institutional failures erode public trust. [Automatically generated summary]
Because the local MP there who was elected a Conservative just a few weeks ago, in fact, he was pounding away at Mark Carney and the Liberals just a few weeks ago.
Well, he flip-flopped.
He changed sides.
He defected to the Liberals.
So we wanted to go, see if we could track him down and see what his voters had to say about it.
That's today's show.
I really want you to get the video version, not just the audio version, because I want to show you how lovely Nova Scotia is.
I want to show you what happened when we went to his constituency office.
And I want to show you what the man on the street told us when we asked.

Tonight, we're in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, looking for the member of parliament that flipped from a conservative to a liberal and now is hiding.
It's November 20th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
Shame on you, you censorious thug.
Hi, everybody.
Ezra Levant here in beautiful Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.
Oh, just the drive from Halifax, where we landed at the airport to here, just about three hours.
It's so lovely.
It's a reminder how big Canada is and how once you get out of the ugly big cities, it's so picturesque.
And Yarmouth itself is such easy living.
It's near the water.
Kids Will Pay00:02:39
I'm sort of jealous because, you know, I'm in Toronto these days, but I'm not jealous of their politics.
You know, their local member of parliament here, Chris D'Antremont, ran, as he has for several elections now, as a Conservative.
And he ran loyally as a Pierre Polyev Conservative.
And just a few weeks ago, he was letting a rip in Parliament about why he did not trust Mark Carney's Liberals and why he stood with Pierre Polyev's Conservatives.
Here's a clip of that.
I want to speak in support of the Conservative motion because Canadians are hurting.
Families are being forced to cut deeply into their grocery budgets just to get by.
And frankly, that makes me a little bit angry and a little bit sad.
Canada is a wealthy country, but under this Liberal government, it's being mismanaged.
Taxpayers are being squeezed, and their hard-earned money is being wasted.
In Southwest Nova Scotia, where I have lived my entire life, people work hard.
They want to own a home, feed their children, provide a good education to them, and maybe take a vacation every once in a while.
But you know what?
Since 2015, everything changed.
Since I was first elected here in 2019, the cost of living has skyrocketed.
Even then, families in West Nova, it was called at the time, but in Akidianapolis, were struggling.
We learned that liberals, their out-of-control spending, and massive deficits were irresponsible.
But of course, they didn't listen.
And now, after six months under a new prime minister who promised financial discipline, Canadians are still waiting.
He said they'd be judged by the cost.
He'd be judged by the cost at the grocery store.
Well, Mr. Speaker, Canadians are judging him, and they are not impressed.
Instead of delivering relief, this government delayed its budget.
So we're still waiting for a budget.
We haven't seen a budget in a year and a half.
Why?
Because it's projecting an over $92 billion deficit.
That's a monstrous, irresponsible burden on future generations.
We'll hear it.
We'll hear it, I'm sure, maybe the questions that they're talking about a generational investment.
But, Mr. Speaker, what it really is, is a generational debt that my kids, their kids, and their kids' kids are going to have to try to pay in one way or another.
That causes inflation and extra costs to future generations.
That was literally a couple of weeks ago.
Chris D'Entremont's Rise00:09:22
But then two things changed.
The first is, well, Chris D'Antremont wanted to be the deputy speaker of the House, which is a pretty plum perk.
It means you get more pay, more staff, and you get to go to more ceremonial functions.
It's also often a precursor to one day being the speaker himself, which is a very highly paid position, comes with a special house, even an apartment in the center block of parliament itself.
It's an incredible perk, and it looked like Chris D'Entremont wasn't going to get it.
So he wasn't going to make as much money as he thought he would.
And don't think for a second that wasn't on his mind.
Because as I showed you a moment ago, he said he hates Mark Carney and Carney's spending in debt.
Well, all it took was a friendly phone call from the Liberals.
And Chris D'Entremont, who short months ago ran in this neighborhood as a conservative, well, he followed his pocketbook.
He followed the money and he became a liberal.
Look at him being embraced.
Have you ever seen Mark Carney so joyous before?
Look at Chris Dantriman go and join the liberals.
Now, I don't have anything inherently against people switching parties if there's an important reason to do so.
Many of us have switched parties in our lives, especially where I'm from in Western Canada.
The Conservative Party, remember, used to be the Progressive Conservatives and the Reform Party, which broke off from the Conservatives years before.
I'm not against party switching.
Winston Churchill himself switched parties on at least one occasion.
But there's ideological reasons or practical reasons or political reasons for that, not just personal ambition and frustration and greed.
And that's what Chris D'Entremont did.
We're here in Yarmouth trying to find the guy.
And right over there in Lubbet Plaza is his office.
Let's go in and see if he's there.
I have a hunch he's not going to talk to us, but we may as well try.
let's go take a look.
Chris Dantremont, Member of Parliament for West Nova.
And here's the sign taped to the door.
Office hours, Monday to Thursday, 10 to 4.
Please note, in-person service is available by appointment only.
And it's completely locked.
He's hiding from his own people.
i don't blame them all right well i'm filming hi i'm Andrew LeBan How are you?
How are you?
I'm great.
I was just looking at the sign.
It says it's closed with no appointment.
Is Mr. Dr. Martin not doing any...
Is he in Ottawa?
Yes.
How's it been these last couple of weeks?
Yeah.
What do people say?
Well, just go on social media and see what you're doing.
Is it tough?
Is it a little?
It's tough.
I'm sorry to hear that.
How would you say it's going?
Like about 50-50?
I think she ran away.
And she closed the door.
I think I scared her off.
Huh.
She seemed pretty friendly, though.
That's that Nova Scotia way.
Well, as you can see, I went in to see Chris D'Entremont.
The office was locked, and there was a sign saying, by appointment only.
I had a brief but friendly chat with the lady in there who says it's been a hassle.
Look, obviously, I don't blame the staff for the decision obviously done by the boss.
I'm sure that Chris D'Antremont did not consult anybody other than maybe his close family and his investment manager.
There's no way he would have talked to the local people here.
They voted for him several times as a conservative.
And as I said before, there was no compelling reason for him to switch parties.
There was no great betrayal by Pierre Paldiev.
There was no important change by the Liberals.
Like I say, just a few weeks ago, Chris D'Antremont was smashing the Liberals in parliament.
All that changed was his own greed.
Doesn't surprise me.
His lovely staff don't want to take the flack for it on TV, and I'm going to leave them alone.
It's not them I'm looking for.
It's Chris D'Antremont who's in hiding.
Have you heard that the local MP for these parts, Chris D'Antremont, switched from liberals to conserve to liberal?
Yeah, he did.
And what do you make of that?
What a coward.
I don't know.
Like, how do you switch sides that easily and that quickly?
I don't know.
It doesn't make sense to me, especially when the vote was so close here, but now the entire province is pretty much liberal.
So, I don't know.
I think it was a coward-week move.
Just doesn't seem sensible to me.
I think that he already had that in mind.
So, for the people that were supporting him, I don't think that was right.
No.
As a young person who's kind of started to pay a little bit closer attention just due to certain living circumstances, I think that him switching over to red just kind of paints something in the same color, if you know what I mean.
Is it frustrating in the democracy?
Like, it was so quick after the election.
It was kind of funny.
Like, you kind of think, well, how long have you been thinking about doing that?
So, have you been, how many terms with Trudeau were you thinking, oh, I think I want to switch over there, but you're still fighting the blue fight?
Doesn't make sense.
You know what?
I love that you said that.
It makes me feel so welcome.
I mean, Nova Scotia is one of the friendliest places anyways, but I've had so many friendly people here saying hello to me.
It feels great.
Well, I'm back in Toronto now.
It was a whistle-stop one-day adventure.
We got up at 4 a.m. to catch a 6 a.m. flight out to Nova Scotia.
Then we rented a car.
It was three and a half hours out to Yarmouth.
We only had about an hour or so on the ground before we had to turn around and come home.
We did stop super quickly in Digby for a quick bite.
But I had so much fun meeting the people of Yarmouth.
Oh my gosh, they were friendly.
And there were a number of rebel fans there too.
But most of the people we talked to did not support the, in fact, we didn't find anyone who supported, I don't think we saw anyone who supported Chris Dantremont switching sides.
Now, a number of people were wearing some sort of uniform that day, some sort of a corporate lanyard or hat, and they said they didn't want to talk to us on the record because they didn't want to appear partisan when they were dressed in their corporate gear.
So we only spoke to about three or four people on the record before we had to skedaddle.
But look, it is clear.
Everyone knows exactly what happened here.
A conservative MP who didn't get the boost in pay that he wanted realized he could be treated like a star and he'll get some reward by crossing the floor.
He put himself above his constituents.
I thought it was pretty gross.
By the way, we've set up a little website called firechris.ca.
And if you think that Chris D'Antremont has done the wrong thing and that he should quit, and if he wants to run again in a by-election, do it.
Where his crossing the floor is the issue.
You can't run for public office and then weeks later switch sides.
I think that's a betrayal of democracy.
Anyways, it's great to be back, but I sure loved the visit and talk about friendly people.
One last anecdote before I go.
You know, we do streeters or man-on-the-street bids.
Sometimes they're called Vox Pop or Vox Populi.
And in places like Toronto, they're tough to do.
You know, you go to Young Dundas Square, which is like the Times Square of Toronto, and you try and get people to stop and talk to you.
And maybe one in five people will stop.
Most other people actually brush you off or even swear at you.
They say F off when you try and talk to them.
I mean, sure, they're busy and Toronto is a busy place.
But in Yarmouth, not a single person did that.
Every one of them was happy to talk.
And if they couldn't stop to talk, they'd say, oh, I don't want to talk about that or I don't know about that.
But none of them said F off.
It was sort of a fun step back in time to a politer, I don't know, more old-fashioned Canada.
I know that's a lot to say based on just one day's visit, but I really liked it.
Anyway, that was our show.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks to the friendly people of Nova Scotia.
Thanks to my colleague, Lincoln Jay, who got up early with me and did the long journey.
I really think that Chris D'Entremont has to go.
I see a lot of gross things in politics, but this felt pretty bad.
Crime in Housing Buildings00:15:44
you can go to firechrist.ca are they safe in Jackson sites or drug houses The mayor of Kamloops, Reed Hammer Jack, says the latter, and he's got some compelling reasons for doing so.
My name is Drea Humphrey with Rebel News, and I'm standing on Victoria Drive West in Kamloops, where I've traveled here and spoken to the mayor about how businesses are being negatively impacted by the so-called safe houses for people who are struggling.
Businesses, including his own, which has been completely ransacked.
Let's go take a look.
So we've got a shelter and a supportive housing right across the street.
And we've got people all over the lot right over here.
I could probably go wake them up because they should probably move them along anyways.
Well, it's okay.
We won't disturb them, but tell me what's going on here.
We're going to talk about what happened to your actual business here, but tell us what's changed and what's caused the change.
What's caused the change is BC Housing, CMHA, Past Wellness.
They came into town.
Well, this was probably 12 years ago now.
They said it was going to be a shelter for women and children sleeping violence, and we all supported that.
And then in 2018, they stepped it up and Celine Robinson came into town.
And she was the housing minister at the time and said they're going to have wraparound services.
And they don't.
They haven't.
They've put 40 people in a building and they get two people to look after them.
They're all struggling with mental health and addictions.
And then they add one down the road there with another 40 or 50 people.
And then, you know, we've got another one down here.
So they just continue to add these facilities and they're not getting the people service.
We need an audit, and I believe for the residents and clients, for the staff.
I mean, you don't, I mean, two staff, and you got people all struggling with mental health and addictions, and nobody's looking after them, you know?
And they're just, I mean, we just had four deaths here just in the last little while.
And we got to get a handle on it, you know?
Well, and you said BC Housing said this was going to be primarily for women and children.
You guys were behind that, but it's been nothing of the sort.
So what exactly is it?
Well, it's to me, it's a drug house.
It's had nothing but crime.
Even back in 2020, I had 95 police files here.
95.
95.
Well, I've got a lot more now.
A lot more now, yeah.
But they, and then they opened another building and they say there's gonna be wraparound services are people and I supported that also.
People are trying to move on with their lives.
They at that time paid $375 a month, two free meals a day, and it's been a nightmare.
I don't know probably most of the people in there that start in there, which is January of 2020.
I know once that have been hit by trains, overdosed and died.
They're on the streets today.
Matter of fact, one guy that originally there, I think he just died here the other day, gentleman in the wheelchair.
So we just keep building them and we do the same thing over.
And I think we really got to start on a recovery-focused facilities.
So you said over this way that tell us what happened over here.
Well, I wasn't here, but it was, I came down, I had two files within 24 hours.
My gas meter's on the other side of the building and somebody was vandalizing it and then it got broke loose and I guess there was a serious gas leak so they had to shut the gas off here and then they lit a fire down here.
If you look, I got steel doors so it didn't get into the building, but it burnt the steel doors and it's just ongoing.
Not that long ago, there's a fire here.
I burnt my fence all the way.
You can see where the fire started there.
Burnt my fence all the way there.
Yeah, so this whole area over here used to be fenced up.
Yes.
Yeah.
Wow.
And they sold it.
And the power, see the power there?
They cut the power from this building to this building.
Right here.
So there's this big, yeah, that there ran from here to that building there.
And they've cut that power off there too.
This is crazy.
But you told us your specific business here.
We're going to walk over to that.
Tell us what your business was or is, how long it's been here before we go look and see what's happened to it.
Well, my business was a good business.
We could stock anywhere from 30 to 50 late model vehicles.
I've been here for almost 30 years.
And now I can't even keep burnt cars on my lot.
The last two vehicles that they left a lot, one was burnt twice.
They told it away, said it was a fire hazard.
I still don't know how a vehicle that's twice burned is a fire hazard.
It's tarped up and everything.
And then I had a bucket truck that was parked here that was a fire in it too, and they vandalized it also.
Julie, it gets in the right position.
Okay.
That's barricaded now, but they kicked that door in.
And then they went through the drywall and through the office area.
And then you'll see what they did on the inside.
All right, this is horrible.
Imagine trying to operate any business in an area where this can happen not once, not twice, but three times.
We're going to have a look in the back room.
I'm a little scared.
Let's take a look.
Oh my gosh, take a look in this first room here.
This and look at the amount of Starbucks.
Where is the money for the Starbucks cups coming from?
Like that much.
Look at that.
Disgusting.
Oh, that's Tim Hortons.
Oh, is it Tim Hortons?
Oh, my gosh.
That's you.
Okay.
But they weren't here.
They are.
This is horrendous.
There's no lights because there's no gas, right?
And look at this.
Look at all of the broken glass here.
Like, they just smashed everything.
And they took your couches.
Okay, here's where the blood is.
Yeah.
But safety first, of course, there's a nice mask there.
You said this used to be a thriving business.
Yes, yeah, it was.
Yeah, like I said, until they said it was going to be a shelter for women, children, fleeing violence, and then they just kept adding to it.
And they don't seem to care, you know, and that's not just here.
I'm talking as a citizen here, as a businessman, right?
But this is happening all over our city now.
I was going to ask you, what on earth is that smell?
It's horrible in here.
Yeah, it's the sewer.
They ripped the toilet out of the out of the floor.
Yeah.
Okay, so this happened a couple of weeks ago?
No, this, well, there were three different break-ins, but this happened a couple months ago originally.
And they, like you said, they smashed every picture.
They've smashed a photo of your family here.
Looks like they've been eating, drinking.
There's a credit card.
Are the police looking into the name on that or you think that's stolen?
Well, it's probably stolen, but police have been in.
The ident team was in.
They've got some blood from one of the door switches there.
They also got a hammer that I think they got some stuff off of.
And yeah, they just smashed everything.
They didn't hardly take anything.
I just found out not that long ago that they stole checks because somebody was trying to cash a check out of an account that wasn't used.
But yeah, they smashed everything.
They smashed the doors.
They smashed everything in the offices, tipped all the computers and all the screens.
And like you see, all the memorabilia pictures.
I've got pictures of the Stanley Cup there with Mark Recce and Shane Doan and Jerome McGinla and their pictures of what we did raise money for the hospital on golf terms and things like that.
Well, we've seen this issue pop up.
I must admit, never have I seen it like so in your face, smelt it so in my face, but I have done coverage on, you know, what we're being promised with these safe injection sites.
They don't seem so safe when they're this close to businesses and things like that.
You said the provincial government needs to do more.
What more do you think they need to do?
Well, they need to do an audit on them.
They need to, again, these safe injection sites, they don't use them.
There's one across the street.
It's probably hardly ever used.
They're all they used there, right there.
You can see right there.
They said all I'm asking for is them to do what they said they were going to do, have wraparound services.
I supported all these.
And what has the response been from your efforts?
Well, before I was the mayor in 2020, I've been working on it for a long time.
Like I said, in 2020, I had about 95 police files.
We actually reached out, our whole block here reached out to Todd Stone and Peter Milbar, our two MLAs at the time, and they went down to the legislature and they argued in the legislature in June of 2020 with Celina Robinson, who's the housing minister.
She said she was going to do a review.
Six months later, nothing happened.
They moved her into finance and moved David Eby into housing.
And still, nothing's happened.
They did one little review called the BC Housing Research Center review.
And that was for this Rose Thorne building and this beer house on the North Shore.
And it was the residents and clients doing a survey on themselves with the staff.
So we need some help here in council.
We've got probably 15, and I'm going to be blunt, I'm going to call them drug houses.
That's what they call them.
That's what the people that I knew that passed away and overdosed, and that's what they called them.
And that's what the ones that hang out here now call them.
Tax paid for drug houses.
Tax paid for.
That's exactly.
Yeah.
If you agree with the mayor of Cam Loops that something has to be changed, you can take action demanding more safe measures and recovery options for people in need at our special website called fixourcities.com.
David Menzies for Rebel News here in West End Toronto, literally at the scene of the crime.
Now you might recall back on September 8th, I was at this LCBO store just minding my own business off the clock and who should come in but a small gang of thieves who cleared out some shelves and well they made their way to their getaway card and I decided I better film this here.
Check out the video.
Are you guys paying for that?
Hey.
Are you punch paying for that?
hey what is that yeah so why am i back here some two and a half months later folks Well here's the reason.
Actually there's three reasons.
First of all last week it was reported that the L CBO will be returning less than $2 billion to the Ontario government.
That is the first time in 10 years that the LCBO has not returned at least $2 billion.
Now why would that be?
Well certainly new competition is a factor.
Convenience stores and grocery stores can now sell beer and wine.
Not the hard stuff mind you.
Ontarians aren't mature enough for that yet.
So that probably took a kick out of the LCBO store network.
But what about the issue of theft?
Now we know going back to 2018 the union that represents the workers here said then that 77 million was going out the door unpaid for.
I will bet you a bottle of fine scotch that that number has increased dramatically given the economic conditions of Canada in 2025.
And this is part of the reason why we're here.
As you saw in the video, the employees just stood around gawking.
They didn't do anything.
I think that's what they've been told to do by head office.
But this is not private sector money being stolen.
It is the money coming out of the pockets of Ontarians.
The LCBO is a crown corporation.
It's not their money.
It's not their stock.
It's ours.
But they don't care because literally they have no skin in the game.
That shameful.
The second reason why we're here is the crime reporting angle.
If you can believe it, we're here in mid-November.
The crime took place on September 8th.
And I still have yet to get through to a law enforcement agency to report it.
If you phone the non-emergency number, you are put on hold for hours and then your call is simply not answered.
That's not just my experience.
I've spoken to other people who have experienced the exact same thing as well.
So it is that we went to a Peel Region police office last month because through a little detective work, we discovered the house where the getaway car, which was a van, was registered to.
It was in beautiful Brampton, Ontario.
But when we went to Peel, the police there weren't interested because the crime was not committed in Peel.
Rather, it was committed in the city of Toronto.
So they just shrugged their shoulders and said, move on.
So it was I went to 22 Division, which is very close to this LCBO, and I tried to report the crime there, folks.
And the person behind the desk said, nobody was able to take my report.
Yeah, that's right.
I was at an entire police department and there was not a single cop that could come out and take a simple report.
And it wasn't just me they were saying that too.
The fellow in front of me tried to report theft over $10,000.
He was told that nobody was available for him as well to take his report.
Now, one of the cops told me there is an online portal that you can report the crime.
So I took that information down.
I reported it online and miraculously the police got back to me very, very quickly.
But get a load of this.
Because there was a weapon brandishing the crime, you cannot report that crime to an online portal.
So what was I told?
Either go on that phone, the non-emergency line that nobody ever seems to pick up, or go back to 22 Division.
We will be doing that a little later today.
But talk about a vicious circle.
It's insane.
And it makes me wonder when the liberals say, oh, look at the recent stats, crime is down.
Do you believe that, folks?
Do you think crime is down?
Or do you think there is a big proportion of crime not being reported because it's impossible to report the crime?
And that brings me to the third and final point of our mission today, which is this.
I did get information from the police that the September 8th crime that occurred at this LCBO store, there is no record of it being reported.
Why Reporting Matters00:05:54
So just imagine that.
I followed the thieves out.
I filmed the thieves taking away hundreds, perhaps thousands of dollars of alcohol.
I got the license plate number.
I had a vial of pepper spray trained upon me.
He didn't fire it, thank goodness.
And all they have to do after I give them this information, the video, the license plate number, the eyewitness account, is phone it in to 911.
They didn't even do that.
They could not even be bothered to make a phone call to law enforcement.
So I'm going to go in.
I'm going to try to get the manager Joe to answer that.
Last time I phoned him, he hung up on me.
But again, it speaks volumes.
I think if this was a private liquor store, and by the way, there's no role in government running liquor stores.
Government's role is to regulate and tax liquor, not retail and warehouse it.
But do you think somebody who had to pay the mortgage would be so laissez-faire, so uncaring, that millions and millions of dollars worth of liquor is flying out the stores for free because they can't stop the thievery?
And really, there are some methods, isn't there, folks?
Why not hire off-duty police officers?
Why not go back to the way the LCBO used to sell liquor, which is to say, you had to pay for the product in full before you got your hands on the bottle?
But like I said, they don't care because at the end of the day, it's not their money.
Let's see if we can get some answers as to why they didn't even bother to report this thievery.
I found out from police it was never reported.
I was here.
I remember you came in a couple of weeks ago, we talked.
Right.
Yeah.
I have received no update since then, unfortunately.
I have no new information.
Is that standard procedure just not to report a theft?
I have received no information about the airplane points.
I have no new information about that.
I haven't seen it.
You can see the concern because this is the money of the Ontario taxpayer going out the door.
Okay.
I can get you cards for our immediate relations department.
I can get you a card for our store.
I appreciate that.
I have reached out to them.
They do not even acknowledge our email.
So this is the problem I'm in.
I wanted to ask Joe, the manager, why I never- Joe is not in today.
Yes, I understand that.
Yeah.
So, again, my only question is, when you're given information about a theft, is it reported to the police?
I was not given that information.
I can't tell you.
No, but in general, I'm saying, sir.
I would believe they would.
I cannot tell you what the information you provided.
I don't know who you spoke to.
No, but if, say, a theft happened right now, and I ran out and I filmed it, and I got the license plate number of the getaway card, would you or one of your colleagues report that theft?
You would do an incident report.
You would do an in-store report.
Incident report.
Incident, but that doesn't necessarily mean contacting the police.
If that's what our procedure was involved, yes.
You can contact the media relations if you want the actual direct step.
I can't give you any information.
I would love to entertain an interview with the media relations department.
I don't even know who the names are.
They don't respond to us.
But an incident report internally is not the same as phoning 911 and making a police report.
Okay.
And you don't have a problem with that.
I, like I said, I wasn't here when the incident happened.
I can't tell you anything about it.
I have no updated info about that.
Okay.
I just, you know, I'm not talking about you personally, but it's a bit of ungratefulness here.
I mean, I put my life at risk potentially to get that information.
And your manager, Joe, can't even be bothered to phone in a police report.
I don't know what Joe did with that information, unfortunately.
If you've provided it, I'm sure he submitted it to the relevant departments, but I don't know.
Not according to the police.
They had no report of a theft.
I haven't had any contact with the police.
I don't know what information they have.
Okay, no, I'm telling you what the police told me, though, right?
Well, I haven't heard that, unfortunately, from them, so I don't know what they have or don't have.
And again, we all have skin in the game.
This is a crown corporation.
We're all shareholders.
Shouldn't we be concerned?
Yep, sure.
Okay.
Well, folks, my cameraman Maurizio and I, we returned to 22 Division.
I decided I'd roll the dice.
Maybe there would be an officer available to take my report.
And lo and behold, there was, but I wasn't able to make that report.
You are not going to believe this.
Even though I was an eyewitness, even though I have video footage for evidence, even though I have a license plate, and even though I tracked the getaway car to a house in Brampton, the police at 22 Division will not take that report.
They will only take the report from the victim, air quotes, that would be the L C B O and when I told them that the L C B O has not phoned in this report and have no intention on doing so, the officer told me then there is absolutely nothing they can do.
So a few phrases spring to mind.
I think one is, as I say in Alabama, this dog don't hunt.
What's that other one?
If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, did it make a sound?
In other words, if an L C B O was robbed, but the robbery was never reported, was it indeed robbed in the first place?
Can't Emphasize Enough: Ontario's Outrage00:01:41
And again, I can't emphasize the real outrage to this, folks.
If you are a resident of Ontario, you are a shareholder in the LCBO.
This is your money flying out the door.
And the booze bureaucrats who are in charge of this outrageous liquor bureaucracy, they don't give a rodent's rectum.
Welcome to Doug Ford's Ontario.
How you enjoying it?
For Rebel News, I'm David Demenzoid Menzies.
Well, folks, as if we needed yet another reason to privatize the bloated bureaucracy that is the LCBO, well, we get another reason, don't we?
They don't care about tens of millions of dollars of bottles going out the door because they have no skin in the game.
It's not their personal assets being robbed.
It is those of the people of Ontario.
Can you do me a favor?
Can you go to sellthelcbo.com?
That's selltheelcbo.com.
Please put your name to our petition to get rid of this ridiculous organization.
Government has a role in liquor.
It's to tax it and regulate it.
It's not to retail it and warehouse it.
Please, sellthelcbo.com.
Put your name on that petition.
And if you're able to, kindly make a donation.
That's our show for the day.
Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night.
