WATCH: Here’s How Joe Rogan Feels About Trudeau’s Anti-Gun Stance

Podcast host Joe Rogan said he was “disgusted” by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s recent comments on gun rights on last week’s episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” with guest Colion Noir.

“Did you see what Trudeau said today?” Rogan asked Noir, a guns rights activist, during a discussion on the push for gun control after the mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.

Rogan read comments the left-wing Canadian prime minister made on a podcast on June 14, when Trudeau said that Canadians do “not have a right” to use guns for “self-protection.”

“We have a culture where the difference is guns can be used for hunting or for sport shooting in Canada, and there are lots of gun owners and they’re mostly law respecting and law abiding, but you can’t use a gun for self-protection in Canada,” Trudeau said.

“That’s not a right that you have, either in the Constitution or anywhere else,” he continued. “If you try and buy a gun and say it’s for self-protection, no, you don’t get that, you can get it for hunting, you can get it for sport shooting, you can take it to the range, no problem, as long as you go through our rigorous background checks.”

Canada’s Trudeau Revoking ‘Use’ of Emergencies Act

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Wednesday that the Emergencies Act, invoked in response to truckers protesting COVID-19 restrictions and vaccine mandates, would no longer be in use.

“The situation is no longer an emergency, therefore the federal government will be ending the use of the Emergencies Act,” Trudeau told reporters during a press conference. “We are confident that existing laws and bylaws are sufficient.”

The decision follows the violent clearing of the Freedom Convoy and other protesters from the Canadian capital city of Ottawa by local and federal police that injured several civilians.

Trudeau first invoked the Emergencies Act on Monday of last week, citing economic disruptions caused by the presence of the truckers as well as the alleged threat to “public safety” posed by the protesters. The act vastly expanded the powers of Canadian authorities to crack down on protesters, allowing them to direct banks to freeze accounts, impose fines and prison sentences, and cordon off certain areas of the city.

Our Mortal Enemy Trudeau

Some people have been astonished by dictator Justin Trudeau’s seizure of emergency powers in order to suppress the heroic truckers who are protesting Covid dictatorship. They shouldn’t be. In order to understand Trudeau, we need to look at his background.

According to a persistent rumor, Justin Trudeau is the “love child” of Cuban tyrant and mass murderer Fidel Castro. The Canadian government took this rumor seriously enough to issue a denial, but the denial itself raises some interesting questions. According to Douglas Perry, writing in The Oregonian, “A persistent internet rumor has led Canada’s government to officially deny that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the love child of the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. The Associated Press reported the denial Sunday and added that Cuba has never claimed it and Trudeau’s parents never visited Cuba until several years after Justin Trudeau was born.’”

As Perry pointed out, though, “At the time of the social-media post, Justin Trudeau was being heavily criticized for praising Castro in the wake of the communist tyrant’s death. Pierre Trudeau and Castro had had a friendship in the 1970s and ’80s, and Pierre and Margaret visited Cuba in 1976. . . Margaret Trudeau, nearly three decades younger than her husband, made tabloid headlines in the 1970s for dancing nights away at New York discos such as Studio 54 while her husband was busy with affairs of state in Ottawa. She infamously had dalliances with celebrities such as actors Ryan O’Neal and Jack Nicholson.”

One thing is certain. There’s a strange affinity between the Trudeaus, father and son, and the monster Castro. After Fidel made a beeline to Hell in 2016, Justin, already Prime Minister, issued this statement: “It is with deep sorrow that I learned today of the death of Cuba’s longest serving President.

Fidel Castro was a larger than life leader who served his people for almost half a century. A legendary revolutionary and orator, Mr. Castro made significant improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation.

While a controversial figure, both Mr. Castro’s supporters and detractors recognized his tremendous dedication and love for the Cuban people who had a deep and lasting affection for “el Comandante”.

I know my father was very proud to call him a friend and I had the opportunity to meet Fidel when my father passed away. It was also a real honour to meet his three sons and his brother President Raúl Castro during my recent visit to Cuba.

On behalf of all Canadians, Sophie and I offer our deepest condolences to the family, friends and many, many supporters of Mr. Castro. We join the people of Cuba today in mourning the loss of this remarkable leader.”

You can imagine what Justin would have said had he been around for the death of Mao.

After Trudeau became Prime Minister, he showed right away that he wanted to be a dictator. As Paul A. Nuttall points out, “With the possible exception of New Zealand’s PM, Jacinda Ardern, Trudeau must be the wokest leader on the planet. Indeed, I actually think that he revels in his own wokeness and enjoys being provocative.

I often hear wokeness being described as just having good manners and not wanting to offend people, and it might have started out that way. But as with everything, it always gets taken too far and ends up being used for more sinister purposes.

Woke is now being deployed by people like Trudeau to alter language, and in some cases, cancel people who have not signed up to the new ideology. But, in the end, it generally just gets on most people’s nerves.

And there can be no doubt that when it comes to world leaders, Trudeau is the commander-in-chief of woke. There are plenty of examples of his silly wokeness, and I’ll give you two examples that made me laugh.

In 2018, Trudeau told a woman not to refer to ‘mankind,’ but instead to use ‘peoplekind,’ because ‘it’s more inclusive.’ He later claimed it was a joke, but the reality is that he got carried away with his own politically correct waffle. And earlier this year, Trudeau could not even bring himself to wish Canadians a happy Easter – no doubt afraid that any reference to the Christian holiday would offend non-Christians and non-believers. Instead he wished everyone a happy ‘long weekend,’ to widespread derision.” See this.

Trudeau doesn’t do much to conceal his aims. If you talk about freedom, that makes you an enemy, according to an official of a “Centre on Hate” that has government backing. “As demonstrations against COVID-19 restrictions continue across Canada, the word freedom is on the lips and placards of many protesters.

Often associated with protests and rallies in the United States, the term has taken hold among protesters who are part of the Freedom Convoy, which rolled into Ottawa in late January and has become entrenched in the city’s downtown.

For many, freedom is a malleable term — one that’s open to interpretation.

That flexibility, in part, has fuelled its growth among certain groups, said Barbara Perry, director of the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism at the Oshawa-based Ontario Tech University.

‘It is a term that has resonated…. You can define it and understand it and sort of manipulate it in a way that makes sense to you and is useful to you, depending on your perspective,’ she told Cross Country Checkup. It’s also a term that has thrived among far-right groups, said Perry.”

Trudeau has acted ruthlessly against the heroic truckers to seize dictatorial power. “As expected, Canadian PM Trudeau invoked sweeping emergency police powers Monday in his latest attempt to stamp out dissent from citizens protesting vaccine mandates and other COVID restrictions.

“This is not a peaceful protest,” the Canadian leader told reporters in Ottawa alongside top cabinet officials. “The federal government is stepping in because local police authorities have had difficulty enforcing the law,” he said.

“This is about keeping Canadians safe, protecting people’s jobs and restoring confidence in our institutions.”

Enacting the new never-before-used law gives Trudeau, in effect, martial law control over everything and everyone; and not all of Canada is behind him… Premiers of Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, and Saskatchewan oppose Trudeau decision to invoke the Emergencies Act on the truckers.

His first act, it appears, was to choke off any funding for the protesters by broadening its anti-money-laundering rules to cover crowdsourcing sites, threatening them with financing ‘terrorism’.

‘We are broadening the scope of Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover Crowd Funding Platforms and the payment service providers they use,’ Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said.

‘This is about following the money. This is about stopping the financing of these illegal blockades.’

Canada authorizes banks and financial institutions to ‘temporarily cease providing financial services where the institution suspects that an account is being used to further the illegal blockades and occupations. . . This new law applies to personal and corporate accounts and covers all forms of transactions including cryptocurrencies:

A bank or other financial service provider will be able to immediately freeze or suspend an account without a court order’”

The “justification” that the tinpot dictator gave for invoking emergency powers was ridiculous: he charged the leader of the truckers’ campaign with “mischief”! “The need for control is a reaction to fear. What does the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fear so much that he invoked the first ever declaration of the Emergency War Measures Act? A group of middle class Canadians who challenged him. That’s it. That’s the sum total of the Trudeau justification.

Need proof? Well, here’s the lead organizer of the Trucker rebellion, Tamara Lich, who triggered the declaration of a national emergency and invocation of the federal Emergency Act. What heinous crime against the state was she charged with? ‘Counseling to Commit the Offense of Mischief’.

Think about it. . . The Canadian Parliament is currently debating whether or not the members within government will support the use of the Emergency Act.

The members of Parliament are spending hours waxing philosophically, with tremendous seriousness, about the need to support the same declaration that is used when Canada would decide to go to war with another country. And they are doing this because blue collar workers have infiltrated the capital city with a demand to remove COVID mandates.

The crimes against the truckers are so serious, they require the invocation of the most massive weapon that can be deployed to remove the constitutional freedoms of Canadian citizens, in an effort to protect them from grave and serious harm stemming from…

…. people charged with “MISCHIEF

And in this fashion, true to his communist roots, dictator Trudeau has responded to a peaceful protest with an unprecedented grasp for power. (For more from the author of “Our Mortal Enemy Trudeau” please click HERE)

Tyranny! Canadian Parliament Votes for Emergencies Act Motion

The Canadian Parliament voted Monday night to approve Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s motion to invoke the Emergencies Act by a vote of 185 for and 151 against.

Trudeau invoked the Act, an unprecedented move, last week claiming it necessary to dispel peaceful protests linked to the Freedom Convoy movement, which is demanding an end to civil rights violations by the Trudeau government allegedly necessary to fight the Chinese coronavirus. At press time on Monday, no active Freedom Convoy protests exist anywhere in Canada.

The motion to uphold the invocation of emergency powers by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau passed in a vote in the Canadian House of Commons on Monday, with the Liberal Party and the NDP and other allies garnering 181 votes for the motion.

The motion was opposed by the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) and the separatist Bloc Quebecois (BQ) and their allies, who voted against it with 151 votes, broadcaster CBC reports.

The passing of the measure in the House of Commons is the first step toward confirming the use of the act, which allows the government significant powers. (Read more from “Tyranny! Canadian Parliament Votes for Emergencies Act Motion” HERE)

Canada Now a Dictatorship? Trudeau Grabs Powers Under Never-Before Used Emergencies Act to Stomp Out Trucker Protests

By Breitbart. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time to squash the ongoing Freedom Convoy protests against Wuhan coronavirus restrictions, potentially giving the Canadian leader sweeping emergency powers.

Trudeau annoucned the use of the Emergencies Act for the first time in its history on Monday afternoon, stating that the federal government has invoked the act to aid law enforcement to stop border blockades as well as the Freedom Convoy demonstration in downtown Ottawa.

He went on to claim the act would be used in a time-limited and geographically narrow way and would not be used to bring in the military or suspend the rights of Canadians in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The Emergencies Act replaced the prior War Measures Act that was used by Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, the current prime minister’s father, during the October crisis of 1970 when members of the far-left terrorist Front de libération du Québec (FLQ) kidnapped and murdered Quebec Deputy Premier Pierre Laporte.

The act, which came into law in 1988, allows Trudeau to invoke various measures that could include banning people from gathering in certain areas as well as restricting their travel across the country.

Trudeau Threatens to Freeze Assets, Suspend Insurance of Freedom Convoy Truckers

By Breitbart. After invoking emergency powers, far-left Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau threatened to freeze assets and suspend insurance of those involved in the Freedom Convoy trucker protests.

“This is about following the money. This is about stopping the financing of these illegal blockades,” Trudeau’s Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said at a press conference on Monday. “We are today serving notice if your truck is being used in these illegal blockades your corporate accounts will be frozen.”

After threatening to freeze truckers’ corporate accounts, Freeland then warned that truckers’ vehicle insurance would also be suspended.

“The insurance on your vehicle will be suspended,” she said. “Send your semi trailers home, the Canadian economy needs them to be doing legitimate work, not to be illegally making us all poor.” (Read more from “Trudeau Threatens to Freeze Assets, Suspend Insurance of Freedom Convoy Truckers” HERE)

Justin Trudeau Invoked ‘Emergency’ Act Only After Biden Urged Canada to Use ‘Federal Powers’

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time in the country’s history to crack down on protests against his vaccine mandate — just days after the Biden administration urged him to use “federal powers.”

Last Thursday, several Biden administration officials, including Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, spoke to their counterparts in Canada as protesters closed the Ambassador Bridge.

The protests are part of nationwide demonstrations against the government’s imposition of vaccine mandates on truckers — a year after Trudeau called mandates ““extreme measures that could have real divisive impacts on community and country.” (Read more from “Justin Trudeau Invoked ‘Emergency’ Act Only After Biden Urged Canada to Use ‘Federal Powers’” HERE)

Justin Trudeau, Family Moved to Secret Location During Canadian Anti-Mandate Protests

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family members were reportedly moved to a secret location Saturday over security concerns during countrywide protests against COVID-19 mandates in Ottawa.

The country’s officials transported the prime minister, along with his wife and kids to an undisclosed location somewhere in the Canadian capital, sources familiar with the matter told CBC.

Trudeau’s itinerary for the day reported his Saturday location as “National Capital Region,” whereas usually it stated that the prime minister was in his Ottawa home.

Trudeau had been working remotely, as he was quarantining after one of his children tested positive for COVID-19, CBC reported. (Read more from “Justin Trudeau, Family Moved to Secret Location During Canadian Anti-mandate Protests” HERE)

The Results Are in for Canada’s Election. Did Trudeau Survive?

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau is still the prime minister of Canada after winning his third straight electoral victory Tuesday. His party did not win a majority of seats in Canada’s parliament.

Trudeau clung to power late Tuesday morning, winning or leading in 157 seats. The Conservative Party will remain the official opposition, winning or leading in 122 seats. The results are almost identical to those of the 2019 election.

“I hear you when you say you just want to get back to the things you love and not worry about this pandemic or about an election,” Trudeau told supporters in Montreal in his victory speech. “Your members of Parliament of all stripes will have your back in this crisis and beyond. Canadians are able to get around any obstacle and that is exactly what we will continue to do.”

Conservative leader Erin O’Toole ran a moderate campaign and only added one more seat to the party’s tally in the Canadian House of Commons. He vowed to stay on as Conservative leader and challenge Trudeau again in the next federal election.

Under Canadian electoral statutes, a prime minister is authorized to call an election at any time with the approval of the governor general, the Queen’s representative. When Trudeau called the election in August, two years ahead of schedule, he was confident of winning a majority government. (Read more from “The Results Are in for Canada’s Election.

Canada PM Gives up on Keystone XL Pipeline, Says Biden ‘Administration Has Made Its Decision’

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Sunday that he won’t be fighting to restart the Keystone XL pipeline because the Biden administration “has made its decision on that.”

Trudeau was asked by NBC’s “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd, “Are are you going to stop advocating for it here? Do you feel as though the Keystone pipeline is now dead?”

“I think it’s fairly clear that the U.S. administration has made its decision on that,” Trudeau responded. “We’re much more interested in ensuring that we’re moving forward in ways that are good for both of our countries. I think there’s so much we can do together that I don’t spend too much time worrying about the tension points.”

On his first day in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive order cancelling a federal permit that was crucial to the Keystone XL pipeline’s completion. The pipeline was designed to transport crude oil from Alberta to U.S. refineries. Scrapping the pipeline immediately eliminated thousands of high-paying jobs on both sides of the border.

Canadian PM Faces Third Corruption Scandal

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologized on Monday for granting a federal aid program to a private organization that has paid his family at least $220,000, Canadian newspaper the Globe and Mail reported on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, Trudeau faced increasing calls from both sides of the aisle for him to testify before parliament over his involvement in the federal government’s decision to grant a now-canceled $664 million federal contract to We Charity, an organization that has paid his family members on multiple occasions for speaking engagements.

“I made a mistake in not recusing myself immediately from the discussions, given our family’s history, and I’m sincerely sorry about not having done that,” Trudeau said at a press conference.

Both Trudeau and Canadian Finance Minister Bill Morneau apologized on Monday “for not recusing themselves from a cabinet decision about [the We] contract despite their personal and family ties to the organization. Mr. Trudeau’s family members, including his wife, mother, and brother, have been paid to take part in WE Charity events and Bill Morneau’s daughter is a contract employee there,” the Globe and Mail reported.
