We are here because we were called. I'm not going to play that game with you. I'm going to detain you. You're recording me. You're going to put this on Facebook. You're detained right here. If you refuse to identify yourself. Yes. Then you will be arrested for obstruction. Go investigate. I'll find out. The first thing Find out first. I'm not going to play this game with you. Okay. Is there a reason why you won't identify yourself? Being difficult for nothing. I have no pleasure in harassing you. Welcome back to the Lackluster channel. Michael, yeah, there's kids around here and the word the first word of that while I agree with it is inappropriate for children that are here. Do you not agree with that statement? They're young kids. Look, young kids don't need to see that word. In August of 2024, Minister Leblanc gave a speech at Point Duchen Warf in New Brunswick, Canada, announcing plans to fund repairs to the Yacht Club and Harbor Authority following Hurricane Fiona, which had caused substantial damage 2 years prior. Hurricane Fiona caused millions in damages to the warf in the fall of 2022. Heavy rain, 100 km an hour winds, roughly 12,000 customers in the Shediak Cap area without power. The feds and the province promised over 10 million to restore and protect it from future catastrophes. A viewer named Dustin attended the announcement of the plan. Dustin carried a flag with him that read [ __ ] Trudeau with the word [ __ ] being censored. The public walkway was directly behind and under the speaker's podium, allowing the flag to be seen in the background on several broadcasts. You know what you would probably be amazed to see? It's now pretty common that we see bumper sticker driving around everywhere in the country and flags in the city everywhere that say F Trudeau. It says [ __ ] Trudeau. This to me isn't politics. Uh this is personal. People are mad. You must have seen them. It has to bother you. Um this is so common in Canada that we just don't even really I don't even think to mention it. an unidentified person believed to be associated with the organization of the event called the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to attempt having Dustin removed. Several constables arrived and attempted initially to shame Dustin into leaving or lowering his flag. They see it all the time. That's No, but we don't need to encourage it. And you're better than that. You're better than that. You don't There's a lot of things Trudeau doesn't have to encourage. You don't have to encourage foul language in the presence of I'm not encouraging anything. Well, by by putting up a I'm encouraging people not to vote for somebody that's uh destroying our country. Understand that. And that's your right to do that. I know. Thank you. I'll carry on. Why do you call me Michael? Is that not your name? What's it to you? I don't know. You just give me a name. It's kind of weird. Mr. You say you were at my house. Call for me to call you Mr. Rogers. Call me anything. Call me good citizen. That'll work. Dustin continues walking and stops to film the officers as bystanders voiced their approval of the flag. They're conspiring to arrest me. Uh them. Why? I don't know. It's a free country. We're allowed to say what we want. Similar to the First Amendment in the United States, Canada enshrines freedom of expression in section 2B of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, guaranteeing freedom of thought, belief, opinion, and expression, including freedom of the press, and other media. The Supreme Court of Canada has historically interpreted freedom of expression to include any act intended to convey meaning such as speech, written work, art, clothing, and flags. So, we did get a complaint about your presence here. Okay. So, we are here on lawful authority. Okay, that's fine. So, because you're the subject of that complaint and you you seem to say that your name is not Michael, do you mind identifying yourself for me, please? Why would I identify?

It was only visible on a few occasions, revealing that the first few letters were worn out. They got no right to do that. No, they don't. They just have to follow them. And now I can make a complaint against them. Good. Dustin went on to file a complaint and was promised a call from a supervisor, but they never followed up. Dustin attempted to obtain the records for the incident, including the initial complaint, call number, and incident reports, but was told that none of the items existed. The agency would then refuse to investigate any further. I'm really happy to be here uh with so many friends in front of me and maybe one behind me as well. You better get it.
