Canadian journalist tries to ask Trudeau's deputy PM a question, police accuse him of assault and arrest him
ยท Jan 9, 2024 ยท NottheBee.com

What happens in Canada when you make an attempt at journalism?

Well, you get attacked by police and then arrested. No joke, that's actually what happened to Rebel News reporter David Menzies yesterday when he tried to ask Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland a few questions.

This happened at a memorial service for those killed when the Iranian military shot down Flight PS752 on January 8, 2020. Menzies was asking simple questions regarding pro-Hamas protests that are being treated much more fairly than the trucker protests of 2022. He also noted that the Canadian government has yet to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization.

Watch as a police officer assaults Menzies and then arrests him for assault:

 

 

REALLY?!?

That's how we treat journalists in Canada?

In case you missed it:

So they aren't exaggerating when they say they live under fascist rule in Canada. Good to know.

This isn't the first time Mr. Menzies has been attacked by police either.

I had more questions ... but then I was interrupted โ€” by police! The Lantsman campaign called the cops on me. But there is no crime of asking prickly questions, so they lied to the police, making accusations that I assaulted people. It was the other way around. They were purposely bumping into me and trying to block me. They knocked my hat off. They threw water on me. And for what? Asking questions.

Man, what a shame it must be to be a Canadian.

Here's the full video of Menzies exchange with police:
