Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Here's Rebel News. Sheila gun Read gets Pierre Polyev to
- 0:06Speaker 1: publicly commit to securing an independent press and ensuring public
- 0:10Speaker 1: access to information. Well, the mainstream media, the journalists of
- 0:14Speaker 1: the mainstream media aren't gonna like that. What are you
- 0:16Speaker 1: talking about independent press, securing public access to information? What
- 0:22Speaker 1: they're not in favor of that. They hate free speech.
- 0:24Speaker 1: That's the weirdest thing now, journalists hate free speech. It's
- 0:28Speaker 1: so weird. So this is from Okay, this is a
- 0:31Speaker 1: question from.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Last night, Sheila gun Read for Rebel News. Yeah, we've
- 0:37Speaker 2: seen the NDP tonight refuse to take questions from independent journalists.
- 0:41Speaker 2: The liberals have gone one step further. The Carni campaign
- 0:44Speaker 2: has called the police on independent journalists. Trudeau before that,
- 0:48Speaker 2: brought in C eighteen C eleven. The Liberals are promising
- 0:51Speaker 2: a revamped version of the Online's Harms Act. What would
- 0:55Speaker 2: a conservative government do to ensure the independence of the
- 0:59Speaker 2: press and protect Canadians right to have access to information
- 1:04Speaker 2: and hold their politicians to account.
- 1:06Speaker 3: We will. We are the only party that's willing to
- 1:08Speaker 3: protect freedom of the press, of all the media, and
- 1:12Speaker 3: we will for extent. We will also repeal C eleven
- 1:15Speaker 3: the censorship law. We will remove the censorship of Canadian
- 1:19Speaker 3: news on web platforms like Facebook and Instagram, and we
- 1:28Speaker 3: will fight back against any kind of Orwellian online censorship
- 1:35Speaker 3: law like the one that the previous Liberal government instituted.
- 1:42Speaker 3: It was designed to create the possibility of preemptive arrests
- 1:47Speaker 3: of people, where you could be arrested if you were
- 1:52Speaker 3: suspected of sometime in the future planning to say something
- 1:57Speaker 3: harmful online. You could be under peace, Bawn. I mean
- 2:01Speaker 3: that is it really is Ourwellian And I note that
- 2:05Speaker 3: many people across the spectrum have spoken out against this censorship.
- 2:09Speaker 3: Even someone like Margaret at would not known to be
- 2:13Speaker 3: a conservative, has said that this kind of censorship is
- 2:16Speaker 3: not only bad for democracy, but inhibits artistic expression. So
- 2:21Speaker 3: I stand for free speech and we will respect the
- 2:24Speaker 3: right of Canadians to have access to the media that
- 2:29Speaker 3: they choose.
- 2:31Speaker 1: You know, I'm glad that he uses the word Orwellian
- 2:35Speaker 1: because it shows for all the same it shows he
- 2:37Speaker 1: understands the magnitude of this is how dystopian, the censorship
- 2:44Speaker 1: that the Liberal Party had in store and has in
- 2:47Speaker 1: store for Canada. Because we're hearing from Mark Kearney that
- 2:50Speaker 1: he's all in on censorship now, censoring social media. He
- 2:54Speaker 1: wants to resurrect Bill C sixty three. Where was the
- 2:58Speaker 1: question in the like Tonight watching, Where was a question
- 3:02Speaker 1: about free speech in Canada?
- 3:04Speaker 2: Right?
- 3:04Speaker 1: We had a bill literally it didn't go through, but
- 3:07Speaker 1: a bill that would have that had pre crime in it.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Pre crime. Okay, this is a liberal bill. You haven't
- 3:14Speaker 1: done anything, but some activist judge can say, well, you
- 3:17Speaker 1: might do a hatonline, So now you've got a year
- 3:20Speaker 1: of house arrest. You haven't done anything. I mean, that's astoundingly,
- 3:25Speaker 1: astoundingly dystopian. So I think that should have had a
- 3:30Speaker 1: place in the debate. I mean, you have to be
- 3:32Speaker 1: able to stay true to your own conscience and express that,
- 3:36Speaker 1: so that should be in the debate. I mean, you
- 3:39Speaker 1: could make an argument that that was the most that's
- 3:41Speaker 1: the most important issue of all of them, because without it,
- 3:44Speaker 1: you've really got nothing. You certainly don't have a democracy.
- 3:48Speaker 1: And of course, when you've got Mark Carney not threatening
- 3:52Speaker 1: saying he's going to revive censorship laws, Okay, it's an issue.
- 3:57Speaker 1: It's an important issue, it's a real urgent issue. Right now,
- 4:02Speaker 1: This is why you need this is why you need
- 4:05Speaker 1: independent media because otherwise this question isn't gonna get asked,
- 4:10Speaker 1: and it's a crucial one. Sheila gonna read from Rebel News.
- 4:14Speaker 1: None of the media that's on the government teat is
- 4:17Speaker 1: going to ask that question she is. That's why it's important.
- 4:21Speaker 1: And this is also why there's no media scrum tonight.
- 4:25Speaker 1: This is why the CBC, this is why Rosemary Barton
- 4:27Speaker 1: freaked out and started spreading misinformation while accusing them of
- 4:31Speaker 1: spreading misinformation. And we will get to that. Too much truth.
- 4:36Speaker 1: That's why the scrum was canceled. Anyway, That's all I'm
- 4:40Speaker 1: gonna say about that. Please like, share, and subscribe. Subscribing
- 4:43Speaker 1: really helps me out. I thank you for that. I
- 4:46Speaker 1: will see you next time.
