1. Erin O'Toole is panicking, asking grassroots, populist conservatives (and lockdown skeptics) to back him.

This, after expelling them from the @CPC_HQ, and refusing to talk to conservative media (and having one of our reporters arrested).

What's the sales pitch exactly?
2. Even though O'Toole had one of our reporters arrested and banned our other reporters from his events, we still offered to run ads for the @CPC_HQ and even sent them a beautiful proposal.

They refused -- it's not just me or Rebel News; they truly hate grassroots conservatives.
3. We sent a similar proposal to Maxime Bernier and the PPC, who accepted it. I see a massive sponsored email just went out to our huge Canadian audience. Subject line: "we cannot trust these Conservative politicians". Image
4. I really don't know what's going to happen tomorrow (and, given Trudeau's desperation, I expect it will be quite a while before the harvested mail-in ballots are counted). But I know the disdain and snobbery shown by O'Toole to grassroots conservatives will cost him seats.
5. Maybe O'Toole honestly has no sales pitch for real conservatives. He cancelled Derek Sloan & silenced the caucus; he loves the carbon tax; he's for mass immigration; he'd ban guns; give Quebec a veto over pipelines; and he's not against lockdowns or vaccine passports.
6. Even so, O'Toole might have sent a message to prospective PPC voters this weekend, on a pragmatic, strategic-voting level. But he really is what he appears to be: an a lockdownist globalist who will do anything for the approval of the CBC and the rest of the Laurentian elite.
7. A thoughtful email, sent to hundreds of thousands of Rebel News viewers who really would have read it, might have made a real difference. But the Media Party is on our list too and they'd have seen it and they'd have been mean to him in the last day.

He chose them over you.
8. Some Rebel News viewers will vote Conservative and some will vote PPC. In the west, some will vote for the Maverick Party. And there will even be some who vote for the Liberals, NDP and Greens.

Many see how the parties treat Rebel News as a proxy for how they feel about them.

Just before the election, Trudeau made an emergency payment of $61M to select news media — but he kept the names of the reporters secret. Of course they wouldn’t name themselves — it was supposed to stay secret till after the election. We’ve got them: RebelInvestigates.com
It won't surprise you that Chatham Asset Management's Postmedia was the biggest pig at the trough. They literally took 48 secret grants from Trudeau last month. Source: RebelInvestigates.com
I'd normally chalk up pro-Trudeau propaganda like this to the fact that Maclean's are just low-information leftists. But our exclusive documents show Trudeau made a secret payment of $313,000 to Maclean's right before the election: RebelInvestigates.com

Trudeau’s debates included the fringe NDP, Bloc & Green parties to give the simulation of a range of opinion. But they’re not viable parties & don’t present meaningful disagreement to the status quo. It was a fake debate with controlled opposition who just say: “more government”.
It was a fake debate with fake issues. Civil liberties and vaccine passports were never mentioned. Because the five establishment parties all agree. Instead, they brought in a child actor to talk about global warming. And they debated who would phase out oilsands fastest.
They kept out @MaximeBernier because he actually disagreed with the Official Narrative. And you can’t have that in a debate. That’s why they fought so hard to keep our reporters out, too — all it takes is one dissenter, and the simulated unanimity is shattered.

Trudeau's @debates_can refuses to put through questions from our ten journalists.

This is in defiance of the court's orders.

Trudeau hated that he lost in court. He hated that we asked him embarrassing questions. So he ordered the commission to refuse to put us through.
Tomorrow I will instruct our lawyers to seek a contempt order against Trudeau's corrupt @debates_can. They are violating the letter and the spirit of the Federal Court's orders.
Trudeau made it clear yesterday that he doesn't respect any court that defies him. And his minions at the corrupt @debates_can do whatever he tells them.

What a disgrace they are. Shame on David Johnston -- and my old friend Deborah Grey.

UPDATE: The case management hearing is over. Trudeau's commission has agreed to accept Alexa's PCR test.

Trudeau has spent more than a million dollars trying to keep us out, and even stooped to a desperate "Covid" excuse. But in the end, they have bent their will to the court.
Our lawyer also asked if Trudeau's commission would play any dirty tricks in terms of selecting which journalists get questions. Trudeau's lawyer said they wouldn't. But that's a Trudeau promise -- worth nothing. We'll see.
We have eleven accredited journalists now -- as many as the CBC state broadcaster. Alexa will indeed be there in person; the rest of us will be in using the phone system.

If they discriminate against us, which I suspect they will, we will sue them again.

And again.

And again.

BREAKING: Right now the Federal Court is holding ANOTHER emergency hearing (by phone) to deal with Trudeau’s debate commission refusing entry to our reporter despite this morning’s court order. Trudeau’s lawyer is citing “Covid”.
This morning the Federal Court ordered them to let in our reporters. But then they said our lead reporter needed a Covid test. We immediately sent them one. (See below.) But then they said it wasn’t enough.
They said we have to take a PCR test that takes 24 to 48 hours to get back. (The debate is tonight.). But guess what — we got one in time. See below.

🚨🚨🚨WE WON!

Rebel News 2, Trudeau 0.

The Federal Court has AGAIN struck down Trudeau’s illegal ban on our journalists. Trudeau had seven government lawyers go to court to fight us. We had one lawyer — and the truth. For more info, go to LetUsReport.com! 👇
All eleven of our journalists are accredited — the same number as the CBC has accredited. Like other media, for Covid reasons some of our journalists will put their questions to the leaders by phone. Our Quebec reporter, @ThevoiceAlexa, will lead the charge for us in person!
You can read the ruling in full at LetUsReport.com. I estimate Trudeau has now spent $1.5 million of taxpayer money fighting to keep us from asking him questions. We’re completely viewer-supported. Please help crowdfund the fees for our great lawyer Chad Williamson.
