Update: Rebel News Face-off in Montreal
Rebel News ^ | April 10, 2021 | Ezra Levant

Posted on 04/10/2021 4:11:44 PM PDT by george76

50 heavily armed police just raided the hotel where our Rebel News reporters were staying in Montreal.

I told them they couldn’t come in without a search warrant. So instead they manhandled me. They handcuffed Keean Bexte. And They just put David Menzies in the back of a police car..

Police have sealed off the AirBnb we were staying in with police tape — they say it’s a “crime scene”.

Of course it’s not. In fact, when we asked them what the “crime” was, all they could come up with was that our staying in the hotel was an illegal “gathering," contrary to Quebec’s lockdown laws.

That’s obviously not true. It is a registered, legal hotel rental on Airbnb. In fact, we had fewer guests than the facility is built for.

This is the same Montreal police who have harassed and assaulted our reporters for weeks. This is their revenge. Because we report on their misconduct.

I’m very upset by this. And I remember that, several times, Montreal police have pulled our reporters over and called us “Jew Media” or asked if we’re “Jews”. I can’t help but think that’s a bizarre anti-semitic motivation. That sure isn’t professional policing.

David is still in the back of the police car. Our lawyer is on the scene. I’m mad as hell.

I need your help. We have to defend David. And we have to sue the police. Enough is enough. I’m sick of them assaulting our people.

Montreal police detain and search group of journalists in town to cover lockdown policing..

The Montreal police (SPVM), whose agents are seen on video calling journalist Yaakov Pollak from Rebel News a part of the “Jew media”, detained and searched the property of numerous Rebel journalists who were in Montreal to cover a protest.

For hours, police tried to obtain a search warrant for the property. While attempting to obtain the warrant they established a perimeter and refused to let the journalists head back to their temporary residence...

When reaching out to a SPVM communication officer, the officer said the journalists had been detained in virtue of the law on Public health (s-2.2). When asked which specific clause was violated, the SPVM spokesperson could not answer.

Workplace gatherings are still permissible under s-2.2.

“Coming to a location near you?”

Depends. If you elected a pro-2nd amendment, constitutional sheriff in your county, then no, the fat, stupid gestapo cops won’t come anywhere near.

How do I know that? Because we have a constitutional sheriff, and he’s thrown two police chiefs out of the county for abusing citizens.

How about the 3-400 people sitting in jail with no due process and no bail for trespassing on Jan 6th?

TPTB don’t care WHO does the shooting or WHAT it’s about.

They just want the shooting to start.....meanwhile the stupid LEOs have no clue as to how they are being used as mere expendables by the politicians.

They’re being used as bait and their devotion to paychecks and pensions blinds them to that fact.

It’s a “global reset” we’re facing FRiend.
Remember when this new fatal virus was just an Italian problem?
TPTB do not reside solely in the US.

I’m less than an hour from Quebec, and provided the skies are clear, can see it from a vantage point about 10 minutes down the road.

Quebec is Quebec.

Cheap beer yes, rule of law, no.
