22 minutes - for ALL Canadians
"Watch the first 22 minutes"
This is likely the most IMPORTANT VIDEO that you will VIEW this YEAR!
Can you spend 22 minutes watching the analysis of our current end result of 12+ years of failing, bad political decisions?
Victor Davis Hanson, is a world wide respected analyst, that the wise listen and learn from, and the others choose something completely different.
Freedom of choice is a two lane road, one side wins for the wise, and everybody's situation has a chance to get better and better.
The other side not only loses, but drags down all others with them.
The 22 minute video verifies all I have stated.
Always in His service,
Fred
Wake up Canada, and elect experts to lead us.
For all who love "Freedom of Choice"...
"Too soon, we grow old, and too late smart" - need not be the case .. if the "already saved" readers of this email, watch the entire 1hr and 15 minute video below. And who, but God knows, perhaps some others might want to learn about the real truth, and not be incorrectly influenced by our current collective media.
This long time learning believer (me) was joyfully enriched in knowledge about "what is to come" on our beloved earth, by the back and forth extremely knowledgeable content of this video.
I pray you will enjoy it as well.
Always in His service,
Fred
Thank you, Fred... for two very insightful VIDEOs

Canada-EU deal ruining U.S. relations, Carney approval rating, Tamara Lich update
David Menzies and Tamara Lich are LIVE for the Rebel Roundup Roundtable with special guest Jasmin Laine!
Today, we're looking at how the rumoured deal that could see Canada become an "associate member" of the European Union is creating another rift in Canada-U.S. negotiations after President Trump said it could be a "hostile" action.
Plus, despite a struggling economy and little to show in terms of development, a new poll found Prime Minister Mark Carney has the highest approval rating ever.
Trump pushed back on the EU proposal
And finally, Tamara Lich's case was back in an Ottawa courtroom on Thursday, where a judge rejected her request to travel internationally for work as part of her duties with Rebel News.
Short Summary [ChatGPT]
Prime Minister Mark Carney has welcomed a proposal for Canada to develop an unprecedented “associate member” relationship with the European Union, while stressing that Canada is not seeking full EU membership. The proposed status does not yet legally exist and would have to be negotiated and defined.
The broader “Alliance for the Future” could deepen Canada-EU cooperation in trade, defence, critical minerals, energy, AI, space, research, digital trade and financial services. Carney argues that diversifying Canada's partnerships would make the country less vulnerable to economic pressure and strengthen its sovereignty.
The initiative comes amid serious Canada-U.S. trade tensions under President Trump and Ottawa's effort to reduce its heavy dependence on the American market. But there are important uncertainties: EU “associate membership” has no established legal framework, agreement among European governments would be needed, and significant economic and security ties between Canada and the United States would remain.
The next major step is the Canada-EU summit in Montreal in late October, where the two sides are expected to start putting substance behind the proposal. Any eventual arrangement would also face debate and a final vote in Canada's Parliament.
Bottom line: This is potentially a major reorientation of Canada's international relationships—but right now it is a proposal for much deeper integration, not Canadian membership in the EU and not yet a completed agreement.

Trump Says CNN, MS NOW, Politico Barred From White House Access
Newsweek reached out to the White House Correspondents Association, CNN, MS NOW, and Politico for comment.
Speaking on CNN Friday afternoon, the outlet's media correspondent Brian Stelter said there was "no indication that he's actually followed through," and that they should give it a few hours to see what happens.
"Certainly, if there is an attempt to remove journalists from the White House, well, our cameras are rolling," he said. "I think viewers will see it happen."
The president's announcement sparked criticism, including Seth Stern, the chief of advocacy at the Freedom of the Press Foundation, who said in a statement shared with Newsweek that it was "difficult to imagine a more blatant violation of the First Amendment than Trump banning news outlets from the People’s House for reporting critically on the government.
"It’s also hard to imagine a dumber move. The historically unpopular president has been retaliating against the press for years, but it hasn’t helped him," Stern said. "Journalists keep exposing his corruption and his failures. These outrageous attacks only demonstrate how scared he is of an informed public."

Trump's Long-Running Campaign Against 'Fake News'
The president has long railed against legacy media, particularly the outlets which are more left-leaning, and has frequently branded stories he disagrees with as "fake news." While that messaging dominated his 2016 campaign and first term, focusing on what Trump viewed as fabricated stories, the slogan has somewhat transformed to focus on outlets Trump disagrees with.
In August 2025, Trump did call for "fake news" outlets to lose their FCC licenses, seeking to cut off their broadcasting altogether. He has also targeted specific reporters in recent years, including CNN's Kaitlan Collins during the White House correspondents' dinner, and ABC's Rachel Scott during a press gaggle on the tarmac on September 11.
Media experts and press freedom advocates have argued that Trump's strategy does more than criticize individual stories; by repeatedly branding established journalism as "fake news," he is encouraging his supporters to distrust institutions that have long upheld the values of independent verification.
Trump and his supporters, meanwhile, have argued the phrase highlights genuine media bias, selective reporting, and inaccurate journalism. The second Trump White House has also sought to publicly shame reporters and outlets through a dedicated webpage called "media offenders."
What Happens Next
Debate will likely center on whether the president is legally allowed to make this move, with the potential for legal action.
"If the administration actually implements this announcement by stripping credentials or categorically barring CNN, MS NOW and Politico from press events because of their reporting, I would expect immediate First Amendment challenges and requests for emergency injunctive relief," former Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg told Newsweek.
Stern said the press needed to keep fighting to protect their rights, not just to access the White House, but also to access public records.
Is This Article Fair?
This sounds more like a Child’s TANTRUM!!!
"In the meantime, though, they can take a break from getting lied to and insulted at the White House," he said. "There are plenty of places to find news, and reporters will continue to do just that no matter how many tantrums Trump throws on Truth Social. Just like he can’t keep his name on the Kennedy Center, he can’t keep it out of the headlines."

BARNES & NOBLE – Grand Comeback!
[ChatGPT]
Barnes & Noble has opened nearly 30 new bookstores in 2026, bringing its national store count to more than 720 and signaling a striking turnaround for the once-embattled bookseller.
This surge in openings covers 15 states and Washington, D.C., with Barnes & Noble launching about 28 new locations so far this year. The company now operates more than 720 bookstores nationwide and says it has plans for dozens more by year’s end. After years of contraction and fierce competition from Amazon and e-readers, Barnes & Noble credits its growth to strong sales and a shift toward giving local booksellers greater control over their stores.
In the past, Barnes & Noble was often cited as another casualty of the digital age, closing stores and losing ground to online retailers. But by 2026, the company has reversed course, rolling out new locations from California and Texas to Illinois and Florida. Specific sites include San Antonio’s Huebner Oaks, Chicago’s State Street and Hyde Park, Costa Mesa’s South Coast Plaza Mall, and a high-profile return to the historic Woodward & Lothrop building in Washington, D.C.
These new stores are not just clustered in major coastal cities. Openings span suburban shopping centers, urban downtowns, and even smaller cities like Stillwater, Oklahoma and Casper, Wyoming. This geographic spread suggests a deliberate strategy to reach both urban readers and families in heartland communities who value physical bookstores over impersonal digital platforms.
While Barnes & Noble has not released exact sales figures, the company’s leadership has pointed to “strong sales and a strategy that gives local booksellers greater control of their stores” as the driving force behind the expansion. That approach stands in contrast to the one-size-fits-all, top-down model that many large chains have pursued in the past, and which often failed to connect with local communities. Dozens more store openings are planned through the end of 2026, according to the company.
Local control and physical presence buck industry trends
The story of Barnes & Noble’s comeback is a lesson in the power of local autonomy and the enduring appeal of brick-and-mortar stores. By empowering local managers to tailor their stores to the preferences of nearby shoppers, the company has reportedly created environments that feel less corporate and more like community gathering places.
In a retail landscape where online giants and digital devices were expected to make bookstores obsolete, Barnes & Noble’s recent growth is a clear rebuke to the defeatist narrative pushed by many in the media and tech circles. The company’s openings in places like Knightdale, North Carolina; Oak Park, Illinois; and Farmington, Connecticut show that Americans still want to browse shelves, foster conversation, and support businesses rooted in their neighborhoods.
Competition from Amazon and e-readers spurred hard choices
The article notes that Barnes & Noble previously struggled against Amazon’s dominance and the rapid spread of e-readers. This pressure forced the company to close stores and retrench. But rather than surrendering, Barnes & Noble adapted, cutting bureaucracy and letting local employees shape the customer experience. The results speak for themselves in the form of new openings and a growing national footprint. USA TODAY reported the list of new stores, showing a wide variety of locations and communities served.
Questions remain as expansion continues
Despite the revival, some questions linger. Barnes & Noble has not released detailed sales numbers, nor has it provided precise opening dates for every new store or the full list of future sites planned for the rest of 2026. The company’s store count before this expansion, as well as the specific 15 states hosting new locations, were not detailed in the coverage.
Still, the pace and scope of the current openings suggest that the company sees unmet demand for physical bookstores and community-centered retail. Barnes & Noble’s willingness to invest in new stores, even as many retailers pull back, stands as a challenge to the notion that Main Street is doomed to be replaced by online-only giants.
It’s a reminder that when businesses trust their employees, listen to their customers, and commit to serving real communities, they can thrive, even in the face of long odds.

LA driver charged with murder after drug-fueled bus crash triggered fatal helicopter disaster
Short Summary [ChatGPT]
A 36-year-old Los Angeles woman, Bailee Lynn Rios, has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder after prosecutors allege she drove while impaired, went the wrong way, ran a red light and crashed into a city bus in Chatsworth.
The collision killed bus passengers Daniel Castillo, 46, and Gage Weida, 31, and injured six others. Authorities reportedly found suspected methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia following the crash. Rios is being held on $4.1 million bail.
About two hours later, a news helicopter covering the crash went down nearby, killing pilot George Marciniw, reporter Eliana Moreno, and Edy Gutierrez Mejia, 29, who was on the ground. The NTSB is investigating the helicopter crash; cockpit audio reportedly captured an alarm, but investigators have not yet determined its cause.
The result was five deaths from two connected tragedies. Hundreds gathered at a candlelight vigil in Chatsworth to remember the victims.
Key distinction: Rios faces murder charges stemming from the two bus deaths. According to the article, no charges have been announced concerning the three helicopter deaths, and the helicopter's cause remains under investigation.

Socialists turning on Carney?
"a set of tax incentives will cut Canada’s marginal effective tax rate on new business investment from 13 per cent to 6.4 per cent, less than half the U.S. rate and the lowest among major economies." (National Post Sept 17)
Is Carney doing this to make the Liberals look less like Communists?
Is Carney benefiting investors to get IOU's from friends?

Pearson airport gold heist - charges dropped!?
Five of the accused were arrested in Canada and four more were listed as fugitives, although one, the driver of the truck that carted the gold out of the airport, is in custody in the United States, where he was arrested after police stopped a car in Pennsylvania and found 65 handguns in the trunk being smuggled to Canada. He has pleaded guilty to firearms charges. Authorities said a portion of proceeds from the stolen gold was used to fund a cross-border gun-running plot.
A small portion of gold from the heist was recovered, police said. It had been forged into six crudely made gold bracelets but with the purity of the gold they were worth about $90,000.
Arsalan Chaudhary, a 43-year-old man formerly of Mississauga, Ont., was found to be the mastermind, or, as Vlacic called him Wednesday, “the principal organizer and benefactor of the heist.” He was given a four-year sentence in April, along with an order to pay $22 million in restitution to Brink’s, which was moving the cargo on behalf of two clients, the TD Bank in Toronto and a foreign exchange in Vancouver.

Did Trump just buy Greenland?!!!
This new deal allows the U.S. government to build whenever and whatever it wants for defense purposes, and to do so in perpetuity.
It also bans non-NATO countries, notably Russia and China, from access to the island. America also gets new veto powers to prevent those nations from mining, laying undersea cables, or building communications outposts in Greenland.
