The Highwire with Del Bigtree - TRUDEAU LIFTS EMERGENCY ORDERS

Episode Date: March 6, 2022

Trudeau has revoked the Canadian Emergencies Act just as both the public and political press hit a fever pitch. Yet he’s not off the hook as several legal challenges are still active seeking the public disclosure of the evidence he used to justify this never-before-used authoritarian overreach.#Trudeau #CanadianEmergenciesAct #OverReachBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.

As I was preparing this segment, last night, suddenly something happened in Canada that really shocked a lot of people following this. Take a look. All right. Dogs and cats, living together. We were very clear that the use of the Emergencies Act would be limited in time. When we invoked it, it would be in place for up to 30 days. But we said that we would lift it as soon as possible. We've held updates and briefs with ministers and officials every day, often multiple times a day.

And today, after careful consideration, we're ready to confirm that the situation is no longer an emergency. Therefore, the federal government will be ending the use of the Emergencies Act. We are confident that existing laws and bylaws are now sufficient to keep people in the United States. keep people safe. Of course, we'll continue to be there to support provincial and local authorities if and when needed. That dude's cadence, man. I'm sorry.

Does anyone feel like you can trust him farther? You can throw him right now. And now that I couldn't get anyone in my government to agree with my Emergency Powers Act and every single civil rights group in Canada is suing me, I've decided to withdraw it for your own good. an incredible moment. It truly is dogs and cats living together. I mean, we are living in insane times. By the way, as I said before, we have a brand new system. So there's a couple things that they're still working out. But I know it's going to be rocking once we get it all

together. But go ahead. Continue on. He was defending. Trudeau was defending this emergency act just days before this statement. And the convoy and the protests and the blockades of the borders. Those were mostly over last week. So he was defending at the beginning of this week and he comes out and says this. And, you know, people are saying, well, he, a lot of people were saying this was for politics. He made this emergency act and made it go forward because of politics. And he's ending it because of politics. Right. And I started looking. Is there any evidence of this? Has he ever played politics before? And I found this, this blog from 2015 that the Huffington Post ran. Listen to this. Why Canada will become a dictatorship under Trudeau.

This wasn't written this week. This was written in 2015. It says here, this is when he was the liberal party leader. It says the liberal party under Justin Trudeau has become a dictatorship. The leader of that party does what he wants, does what he wants, when he wants, and no one dares question him. Now that we know that Trudeau runs his party like a dictatorship, we must ask ourselves, is there any indication he wouldn't do the same as the leader of Canada? It goes on to say, could Prime Minister Trudeau be trusted to make decisions for the good of the country, not just for his personal self-worth? Would Trudeau call in the police to enforce his vision?

Let's hope we never have the opportunity to ask those questions. And of course, those questions were asked, and we saw how they were answered. And just after our show last week, the police moved in and they cracked down hard as we saw from those videos on the protesters in Ottawa. And the headline here, interestingly enough, the parliament was supposed to vote on this emergency acts. Police crackdown forces Canada Parliament to cancel itself. So this act was declared dictatorially by Trudeau. It wasn't even voted upon democratically. So they reconvened on Monday this past Monday here, and they did vote this through.

So this is kind of a couple days ago. Seriously, I mean, I'm glad they signed their name to that document. So we will never forget who was a guy. against the citizens and siding with what appeared to be a dictator all along. Yeah. And so here's the headline. As this Emergency Act passed on Monday, it says vote on Trudeau's Use of Emergencies Act passes with NDP support.

It was voted on passed by 185 in favor 151 against. But notice on that headline it said, NDP, that's the new Democratic Party in Canada. One of their major planks of that political platform is, defund the police and stopping police brutality and violence. And I can't help but laugh because when the chips were down, I guess, they did the exact opposite. They brought in the most militarized police to literally run people over with horses, beat them with batons, knee them while they're on the ground. And we saw all the rest of it. So like you said, it's really great that these people show their true colors when when peaceful protests were upon their front door. Now, finishing off here,

one of the protest heads, I guess, or rally heads, this was Tamara Lynch. She headed up the GoFundMe page. She was detained, arrested. And this is the headline here, key convoy organizer, Tamara Lynch denied bail. So in the article here, the court judge said, your detention is necessary for the protection and safety of the public. Now, she's being held without bail on something called counseling to commit mischief. So mischief is this big catch-all term with interfering with, you know, everyday life, with government actions, with people's everyday goings. She was counseling people to commit it. She didn't commit herself. She was denied bail. This can be basically anytime for a first time offense is just a fine. It can hold up to 10 years. But since she was denied

bail, she is going to sit in a provincial court until the judge rules on a decision. This could be months. So she is essentially detained as a political prisoner of Trudeau, I guess at this point is what we're looking at. And what this this, this emergencies act did in Canada is it caused a lot of people to, you know, I'm seeing post all over the place, people are pulling their money from the banks. It's atrocious for bank commerce. They're bringing it into smaller local federal credit unions. But a lot of. Well, what do you expect when you freeze people's accounts, right, for simply donating. I saw a story of, yeah, I think it was an ice cream shop owner that her entire business was destroyed because they printed that she had given $250 to try and feed some of the

truckers. She said, I didn't really even know what I was, you know, donating to yet they opened up their accounts. I mean, all of this, they froze their accounts. I mean, just really, really crazy things. And I think, too, we talked about this last week, those people that keep saying, you know, Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies of the future, I mean, it just feels like at any moment these governments can just turn all these things. I don't know. I mean, it's not my area of a specialty. We'll bring in someone to talk about that. But boy, when they just want to shut you down, they certainly have no problem doing it and freedoms just right out the door. Right. And yeah, we did see that. And so there are court cases now going on. They're not being

dropped since this Emergency Act has been revoked. We have the Canadian Constitutional Foundation and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association are asking for a hearing Canadian federal court. And then even a birdist premier, Jason Kinney announced that he's going to do a challenge. And this isn't so much, obviously, to revoke the act because it's already revoked. They're looking for justification from Chaudot for this decision. So they want publicly accessible information on why the government decided to do this act. The only way the Canadian government can get out of this is if they call for national security or cabinet secrecy on this information, which, you know, is very likely. But that's still ongoing now, these court proceedings and holdings. So that's really what we're going to

keep an eye on at this point to see if they come forward to give the evidence because we still don't understand what evidence besides some truckers honking their horn outside. Well, we know what that means now. That's right.
