Rebel News reporters Keean Bexte and David Menzies have been detained.
The Canadian conservative outlet said in a statement that “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,” the statement continued. “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.”
Rebel Media founder Ezra Levant continued on to note that “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.” He also said that he was manhandled by the police.
The outlet was in town to cover anti-lockdown protests.

Montreal police don’t have their search warrant yet. So they have deemed our Airbnb a crime scene. I’m not sure what they’re searching for — we have obviously uploaded our footage. They’re dragging it out to stop our work. So I shared my thoughts with them directly. pic.twitter.com/BsErpxSJN5

🚨Montreal police have raided our Airbnb and are arresting and handcuffing our journalists. As I told the cops, we will be getting to know each other very well as we sue them. https://t.co/roDg8jvAa1 pic.twitter.com/HB7I9mLlIk

The Montreal Police being very aggressive.
Is this force necessary or acceptable by Canadian standards against independent journalists?
I did not know what to expect coming to the scene, but wow. I am shocked by my local police actions today. pic.twitter.com/KBKtz5CWVN

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
