The violent Ottawa police chief says he’s branching out and now his officers will combat “misinformation”. That starts with spying on journalists (he calls it “monitoring”). And in our case, it involved beating our reporter with a bat and shooting her.

12 hours after leaving Toronto, I have arrived at the UK court of appeal. Tommy Robinson is appealing his prison sentence for contempt of court. I’ll live-tweet the proceedings and post videos. To see my work and help crowdfund my journey, please visit . TommyReports.com
I am now inside Courtroom 4 at the Royal Courts of Justice, which is the court of appeal. It's a fairly large courtroom. There are about 20 people in the public gallery. There are also nine people (including myself) in the seats reserved for the press.
I see a large screen with views of the judges' seats, and the lawyers' benches. I presume that is the video feed that Tommy Robinson will see from prison. Tommy himself is not visible yet.

Canada sells 4.3 million barrels of ethical oil to the U.S. every day, from oil companies largely owned by U.S. shareholders.

Who would you rather buy oil from? It would take years for the U.S. to ramp up its own production that much.

And: who would you rather us sell it to?
I can understand Trump’s disdain for Trudeau — most Canadians share that view. But there are better ways to shoot at Trudeau without hitting Canadians, particularly Canadians who love the U.S.
Canada — really Alberta, the Texas of Canada — has 170+ billion barrels of oil. No need to spend $50B/year patrolling the Persian gulf to protect Saudi tankers — it’s right here. Alberta has proposed doubling production. That would completely displace U.S. imports of OPEC oil.

Jeremy MacKenzie a fed.

No real Canadian conservative would be like this.

He’s like Grant Bristow, the leader of the racist Heritage Front who was really a CSIS agent.

Diagolon’s purpose is to discredit conservatives, give fodder to the media and provide an excuse to censors.
It’s funny & pitiful to see him blame the Jews for a fraud alert in his banking. No bank in Canada has a Jewish CEO; all are widely held in the stock market. I bet he blames the Jews when he hits his thumb with a hammer.

This isn’t authentic. No-one is this stupid. It’s an op.
I should disclose that this bigoted fed is actually suing me for calling him a bigoted fed. That’s obviously part of the op, too. Everyone calls him racist; he is. But he’s only suing Rebel News. Like I say: he’s a fed.

1. I'm back in Ottawa for the trial of Tamara Lich & Chris Barber, the leaders of the 2022 trucker convoy.

It's now the longest-running mischief trial in history. The prosecution are turning the process into the punishment.

I'll be live-tweeting and filming some videos, too.
2. Mark Joseph, senior litigation counsel from The Democracy Fund is also live-tweeting. I'll try to interview him today.

@TDF_Can is crowdfunding the legal bills for Tamara. If you can help, please go to . You'll get a charitable tax receipt.HelpTamara.com
3. The court has just convened. I'm not sure why the slow start. The trial is in the phase of closing arguments. On her feet now is Diane Magas, one of the two lawyers for Tamara's co-accused, Chris Barber. She describing some of the requirements for mens rea -- a guilty mind.

1. Here’s an 11-minute phone message from Tommy Robinson explaining how police arrested him under the Terrorism Act for the express purpose of forcing him to answer political, personal and business questions — nothing to do with terrorism.
2. You can see that this was a malicious, arbitrary and illegal use of the Terrorism Act. They knew Tommy had committed no terrorism, never has, never will. They just wanted to grab his phone and all of its contents without a search warrant. And do the same with their questions.
3. There's a Kafkaesque nature to the Terrorism Act. It requires you to answer questions and give documents to the police. If you don't, that's a crime. So they can arrest you with no crime; but if you don't want to tell them everything they can think of, that's the crime.

1. Why would Tommy Robinson be detained under the Terrorism Act? He's not a terrorist and has never been accused of being one.

The answer is the powers granted to police under Schedule 7 of that law: you do not have the right to remain silent under it: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a7f63b9…
2. Click the link to read it for yourself -- it's a long document: Here's a screenshot of a key passage. If you're arrested under the law, you cannot remain silent. You must hand over anything (without a search warrant). assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a7f63b9…

3. You do have a right to consult a lawyer. But police can delay your right to consult one.

This is an astonishing law, designed for extremely rare instances where, for example, a terrorist knows about a ticking bomb that's about to go off.

They're using it illegally on Tommy. Image
