1. Prosecutors asked a judge to throw Pastor Artur Pawlowski in prison for 21 days.

Instead, the judge fined him $42,000, forbade him from travelling till 2023, and ordered him to say the government's political rebuttal to himself anytime he talks about the pandemic.
2. In a 40-minute rant, the judge raged against Pastor Artur going on a church speaking tour to talk about civil liberties. That's why he has banned Pastor Artur from travelling. He doesn't want any more church meetings.
3. The judge is obsessed with media coverage of his case. He specifically raged against Pastor Artur appearing on Fox News. So to stop that, he has now ordered Pastor Artur to self-denounce after every statement against the lockdowns -- rendering any TV interviews impossible.
4. The judge is Adam Germain, a failed Liberal Party politician who was given a soft landing by Jean Chretien who appointed him to the bench. Germain was rejected by Albertans; and now in return he rejects Albertans' belief in freedom. It really is an atrocious ruling.
5. Recall that @CalgaryPolice arrested Pastor Artur in a SWAT-style take down, forcing him to kneel in a busy highway. Today judge Germain said Pastor Artur “revelled” in that “spectacle”, as if he orchestrated his own abuse. Germain blamed the victim.
@CalgaryPolice 6. I spoke with Pastor Artur's lawyer, Sarah Miller. She is already working on the appeal. If you want to help crowdfund his legal fees, please visit SaveArtur.com -- thanks.

Andrew Neil is the best journalist in the Anglosphere. I was thrilled when he debuted @GBNEWS.

But I regret that his war with the suits has turned his fellow journalists -- who he helped recruit -- into collateral damage.
His list of complaints about technical glitches are old news, and par for the course for live TV. I've never heard of a start-up that didn't make mistakes.
.@afneil can have his feud with the suits, but surely he can take pride in the talent that he himself helped assemble. He would have been the brightest star; but there's still a constellation of journalists who are not only excellent, they're ratings hits.

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

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.
