Creeping Tyranny In Canada - And The West | Josh & Nick Alexander | EP 399

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with Save Canada organizers Josh and Nick Alexander. They discuss the resurgence of activism for christian ideals and family values, the abhorrent response from administrative bodies, mainstream media, and law enforcement, the threats and physical violence levied against their family and organization, and what their battle really means for Canada and the world at large.
Josh Alexander is a 17-year-old Christian student activist. Josh has been denied an education at the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board since November 2022, after speaking out against the radical left-wing gender ideology in schools. After three arrests since February, one having been at his high school, Josh has continued to publicly uphold his convictions in the face of the rapidly developing censorious state.
Nick Alexander is the older brother of Josh Alexander. He has been arrested 3 times and removed from his fire department for exercising his rights to oppose the mainstream narrative. Nick recently made headlines after being assaulted with an edged weapon by union supported counter protestors and then arrested.
Together Josh and Nick lead the Save Canada movement as it sweeps the country bringing the message of truth to our youth and providing a rallying point for concerned citizens.

I’m sorry if you lost loved ones from divoc 91. My mother suffered severely, recovered from divoc 91 and was ready to run out of the hospital. The doctors had the brilliant idea to give her the “supplement “ AFTER a full recovery! Within 3 days she was AGAIN on death’s doorstep and it took 3 weeks to recover. They then gave her a “booster” after that and THAT almost killed her. She eventually succumbed to the 2nd booster. The cure is far worse than the disease!

I think the parents of these two young men need to start a private school recruiting teachers who also have these values and teach the upcoming generation. It's desperately needed in our society today.

What inspiration these two young individuals are, there is hope.

I’m friends with Josh in real life and his parents have unfortunately suffered a lot as a result of his story. They were both teachers for the same school board we’d attended until he left for catholic and they both got silently let go with everything going on with Josh. They had to sell their house sadly and what’s worse is that his dad wasn’t even allowed back into the army because of Josh. Pretty sad situation seeing as all he did was take an opportunity to speak the truth.

“Man” they worship?

[@joemendiuk]

Well I am a Christian and am rather knowledgeable in scripture. I will comment that although I understand the conviction which these young men have and their zeal for the gospel, their behavior being provocative in such circumstances by trying to evangelize these mobs which are clearly not receptive to their efforts is foolishness! Jesus instructs that His apostles in carrying the gospel should deliver that message, and if received then stay there and provide greater revelation of the gospel, but if it is rejected, as it is in the circumstances described, they should depart from there shaking the dust from their feet as a testimony against those having rejected it. Moving on to other places and persons whom may receive it. As a young man I engaged in similar foolish behaviors defending righteousness and freedom against corrupt authority with identical results, expecting anything other is equally as foolish. Christians are to be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves. Furthermore, it does appear that these present social developments are essentially the rising of the beast in it's early stages. Scripture prophetically indicates that this shall happen and that additionally these circumstances comprise but a portion of the Mosaic curse consequences which God imposes to induce repentance. To attempt thwarting that in effort to bring about the kingdom of God here upon the earth prior to Christ's return when He shall institute it is going against the will of God. So if anyone desires to place themselves into the path of that, bringing about persecution upon themselves, that is unwise, imprudent, and unbiblical.

​@@joemendiuk No. These young men organized a group of believers, who had a desire to learn the Gospel. They had a legal & moral right to gather. They did nothing wrong. They had earnest intentions, shared vital information, which is obvious, after witnessing the disgusting response of the woke mob, RCMP, their schools & government institutions in Canada. The tyranny is terrifying; it's purely evil. But somehow, these young men have the courage to face down the mob, to share the most important message of all time. I sing their praises, because it's RIGHT & a GOOD & LOVING thing. I offer up the biblical interpretations & judgement to God Almighty to sort out. Where the love of Christ is rejected, it is most necessary.

These amazing young men are EXACTLY what happens when parenting goes right! They're a prime example of true disciples of Christ and exactly what the establishment is afraid of.... TRUTH, passion, hard work, drive, DIGNITY, and the one they're most afraid of, the only answer..... Jesus Christ! I'm so blessed to see such encouraging young movements rising up. It's about time! Save our children, freedom, and Make Jesus Known Again!

[@patriciaulicki6037]

OMG These young men are incredible. We need many many more just like them They seem to have tons of integrity and morals. What beautiful parents they must have.May God bless and keep them.

One last comment, at 1:10-1:13 these young men are SO WORTH listening to regarding young men. I'm proud to have these youth to speak for most in Canada. God bless

Thank you Dr. Peterson for interviewing these remarkable young men. As a Canadian living in the U. S. it is heartbreaking to see how Canada is being destroyed by the government. This interview gives hope that there are good people still fighting for the truth.

Wow, spectacular interview. I am so impressed with how it was conducted and how these young men Josh and Nick were so professional and the integrity they displayed. I could've watched two more hours. I'm praying that more and more young people will follow their leads

[@rebeccagill8670]

Great interview! I can't believe what these young men have been put through for basically standing up for ALL of us! I forgot how young they were as the interview progressed. Very well spoken, mature young leaders that we should all be proud of. I'm not a Canadian but you have my support as well. Thank you Jordan for always bringing truth to the forefront ❤

Dr. Peterson I wanted to to say that I’ve been following you on DW and I saw your lecture in Kelowna BC this summer, but this was a session that gave me hope and a sense of renewed belief in my country. This interview was such a blessing to all who watch it, these two young men have renewed my confidence in living in a free Country 🇨🇦 and I will be praying for them. I will pass this interview on to all my children and grandchildren 🙏🏽❤️God Bless you guys

[@ingridbergman-vz7go]

That was a fascinating conversation. Thank you for allowing these young men to speak and share their experience. Hard to believe they're still teens. Already developing wisdom, which is something we all need. Would be good to see JP continue to have interraction with them.

I went to school with Josh for many years and worked with him, when he started all of this i told him i was happy he was standing up for what he believed in. its amazing to see how far this passion he has for this has brought him. I am happy to see him do what he believes is right and blocks out the negativity.

Thankfully I left Calgary at 19. My mother & siblings still reside there & are all happily jabbed. I am so proud of these young men, and they do give me hope for the future of our country.

I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation! I'm a parent that stood up to school boards against the mandates, in 2020/21. The following year I wrote a letter to my first grader's school requesting he no longer be taught "lmnop" ideologies or given its paraphernalia. An important note to make when highlighting the Catholic school aspect is that public schools have students of many religious backgrounds, some absolutely intolerant to this ideology. It is my opinion that the blatten disregard (or oblivion) to this fact is not only uninclusive but catering to the very few to the detriment of the masses. These two made this mama's heart smile! As a parent, I'd love nothing more than to pass this strength and level-headness on to my children.

Are you kidding right now? Jordan Peterson ran away from Canada! And Canadians do not have the same rights as the United States citizens and to think you do is absolutely ridiculous! If Jordan Peterson was the one to save Canada why did he have to run away to America? He didn't stay and fight he ran away! You need to put your trust in the Creator God not some loser in straight leg pants

These two young men are amazing. I don't think that most Canadians understand how far down the slippery slope of not speaking out had gotten. Now that you're waking up to that fact, let me say Kudos to you. And Kudos to the couple of young American men that roused you from your slumber. I hope that Canadians stand up, and speak out against the tyranny that is snaking through your country. Y'all deserve better government, and more freedoms not less.

They're thugs using religion to make themselves look like decent citizens. What does a 17 and 16 year old know about the world, diversity, acceptance of others especially when they've been homeschooled by their religious zealot, racist, bigoted parents. Absolutely nothing.

[@ashton.m]

Too much being read into all this, me thinks. Public education has to comply with public health directives. If you participate in public education, you simply have to abide by health directives coming down from the province. You dont get to pick which health directives you want to follow. If you choose to take matters into your own hands, they kick you out. Standing up for your beliefs, great, I agree with Josh and his bro on the content of their argument, but the school system also has a duty to kick you out for contravening public health and safety guidelines. As for the protests and police behaviour... policing that antagonizes one protest group in favor of another group... that's just bad policing

[@miriamcroucher5079]

@ashton.m I do not agree with you. Whether public education authorities need to comply with all public health directives or not, those in public education should not blindly follow the directives of those in authority. Obedience to authority is dependent upon whether or not that authority is valid. It may be lawful but, when it contravenes the laws of nature and of God, it is not valid.
