The Montreal police had never seen journalists out and about because they're so incurious and so obedient in the regime media that they would never think to report on this absurd curfew. So we had a great night out. We did curfew reporting late at night. Then we all go to our Airbnb houseboat, and then we get up the next morning, and there's going to be a protest.
Well, wouldn't you know it, but the old Port of Montreal just happens to be the staging area for the police. So 50 police cars show up, and they find out that's where the Rebel News people are. So they seal off our houseboat with yellow police tape, and they come on our little houseboat and say, we're searching this place.

Well, and I was off the boat at that time, but our youngsters— Had you flushed the cocaine by then? Our youngsters know to say, where's your warrant? I'm so proud of our young people, and they all said, get a warrant. And the cops said, you're going to play that way. They sealed off our boat, and for the next 10 hours, no one was—they wanted to search every person and every room. For what?

It's not yet clear. I think they just wanted to... Yeah, yeah, of course. And we said, come back with a warrant. And I don't think they're used to being talked to that way. For 10 hours, they shopped this around Quebec to try and find a judge. And God bless it, they couldn't find a judge to give them a search warrant.

That's the miracle of the story. That's for sure. Thank God. Now, we sued them, and they actually settled. They settled because they harassed a bunch of our people. They paid a bunch of our different journalists a certain sum of money. And then they wrote a letter, sort of a grudging, ironic apology. But it basically said, well, we didn't know who you were.

And you always had your journalistic rights. And we sued the Montreal police. They paid our people. The people who were roughed up, they arrested Menzies. Yeah, of course. And it took him to a crappy jail. Seems like his fate. Yeah, you know, Menzies, he's stubborn in a good way. And you don't want everyone in the world to be stubborn in a good way, but you want a few.

He's actually a national treasure. There's only a handful of journalists... who are on the street. A lot of journalists just sit at their desk and Google. How about get out into the world? You never know what you're going to see. And that's the rebel style. We love to travel also. We're from Canada. We got a fella in Melbourne, Australia, Abiyamini. That was a real lockdown center too.
