for with good, what are you doing with canadian police? go in heavy at the anti vaccine mandate protests and also up as prime minister trudeau tries to belittle the demonstrators. a few people shouting and waving swastikas does not define who can the there were thousands of people coming down here, showing support. there was why, you know, there was music. we report from the canadian capital where despite the government pushed back the protest surpassing all peacefully. also this our i'll teach german language channel appeals berlin's broadcast band in foreign ministry. spokeswoman maria's, however, talks to us exclusively on this, on the world's other help button topics right now. the general government said i

have nothing to do with the conflict, but they did not hide the irritable reaction to the work of our team. and the german union of journalists pay to pay grow. you can say as much as you like that the employees of our t, i know this, you need to have some criteria. state funding is not an indicator cuts. universal credit and soaring bills are taking its toll and families just getting by resulting in them doing something they never imagined. like using a food bank. and there's millions in birth and experience, food insecurity and a spike in the cost of living. i'll te visits a food bank to hear how it's hitting household with other intimate weaknesses are to international. i'm calling bray with the news recovering for you in the moscow news room. this our 1st then with the canadian capital still in the grip of mass cobra vaccine. monday, protests 2 provinces appear to have relented announcing an end to their proof of

vaccination policies. but also where police are instead clamping down making forceful arrests of anyone they find supplying fuel to the protesting truckers. or what are you doing? what do you do? what do i do? oh, lots a. so i got it all on video i i, i believe yes you did. i thought you were running in the canadian prime minister's accused vaccine mandate protest as of trying to derail the country's economy. and democracy going so far as to label them as a small group shouting and waving swastikas. this is a story of a country that got through this pandemic, by being united and a few people shouting and waving. swastikas does not define who canadian

or to the government of canada. and to mr. judo. your plan for this pandemic has been dismal. you need to come back and talk to these people. they're not scary people. there's a saying that i'm sure you're familiar with and that's lead, follow or get out of the way. and mr shadow, you've proven that you're not a leader, protested, say the federal government's response to the movement has only added fuel to the fire. i've been vaccinated my whole life, so i wasn't scared of the vaccine. what, what made me want to come here was when i saw the prime minister and get up and call these people racist. like i said, i'm a truck mechanic by trade. i've been working with these guys for 20 years. and i've never once met people that you would call racist in the trucking trade. when they prose or economy, they didn't raise any loans. there was no legislature that caused them to raise any

of our loans. and they didn't lower taxes respectively. though people are losing their homes are losing their business, they have no income, and they're being stored to get the bath seen in order to just stay employed. so they don't lose their houses. the mass don't make sense. no, no laws that they've come up with a little rules and mandates makes sense. there. mandates have been way out of and and we need to go back to freedom. we need to go back to the way we were before. well, there were thousands of people coming down here showing support. there was live, you know, there was music there were bouncy, castle, their families range children. well that's really calm down. it's a much wider atmosphere, not necessarily here, but in other parts of the city is really rad. sure enough, there in horseman measures they issued more vehicles, they're basically trying to cut off the fuel supplies to the truckers can also find have increase. so this is all part of the effort, the basically shut this process down. however,

the police chief here in the city said, i need an additional $1800.00 officers to do so. they called on the federal government to help the government official the call to see an insurrection, mostly from what we saw and talking approach answers is very peaceful over the weekend. but there is some volatility now that being requiring down yesterday, we are talking to some of the protesters and supporters. residents of the area walking by calling them to go home, making sure your residents file that class. she watched the jug grant in a temporary injunction and tried to shut this boy down. but at this point in the middle of the protest, not only here but elsewhere, continued and really a lot of support coming and internationally as well. the federal, the federal government get lady and officials wanted to stop. now the question is, how much longer will this go on and will it really be a battle of political will if it's a weighing into more than a dozen canadian politicians and campaign groups, according on the government and associate with the protest as they published an

open letter, which also appeals to the demonstrators, to refrain from violence or humming local businesses. one of the signatories is a leading lawyer who told artsy, she believes there's no legal basis for detaining peaceful protest as all people providing them with supplies. i can't speak for prime minister's intentions, but there hasn't been any sign that he's willing to negotiate and we're hopeful that going forward. when he sees that the protesters are not going to leave without some sort of negotiation, there has been seizure of fuel which the truckers need to keep warm as you know in canada right now. it's the middle of the winter time. the temperatures are minus 20 degrees celsius overnight and they need that fuel to keep warm because they're sleeping inside of their trucks. and of course there's, there's no legal basis to arrest anyone for giving truckers fuel. i mean, if there's a charge of mischief, mischief relates to criminal intent and the protesters are not engaging in criminal activity. they're engaging in peaceful protest,

which is protected under the canadian charter of rights and freedoms. so absolutely, this, this governmental overreach and you know, we have serious issues with these actions and we've got to hold up in court. a convoy protest against vaccine mandates of spreading beyond canada all the way to new zealand trucks and vans in the capital. wellington of block street for a 2nd day surrounding the parliament building hundreds also turned out to support the protest, the demands of the same as in canada to lift vaccine last monday. in the midst of a 10th standoff with russia, the us says it sees no need for immediate sanctions against the old stream to gas pipeline that links russia to germany. president biden earlier threatened to shut the project of russia in bay to cry. ot southgate taylor takes up the story, no string to as now front and center in the ukraine crisis because while both nato until now agree. but the imminent rush invasion they've been waiting for for months

is unlikely to happen. the u. s. president disagrees and has decided to take the pipeline out for a final politicized right. there will be no longer a nor stream to we will bring it in. how will you, how will you do that? exactly. since the product and control of the product is worth in germany's control, we will, i promise you will be able to do for europe fake one can only hope that this incredibly detailed plan of biden's to stop a sovereign countries economic dealings with another sovereign country will be asked for town as his plan for the afghanistan with torrell, but white doesn't bite and want berlin is cooking dinner over russian gas. well, some accused president putin, unlike bite, of course of using gas as a political weapon would have he flicks the switch and hundreds of millions a hit by the great frees like that time back in. oh no, wait, never,

president biden has made clear that nordstrom, too, is a bad deal to bad deal because it divides europe. it exposes ukraine and central europe to russian russian manipulation and because it goes against europe's own stated energy and security goals. so thought of occasion of the project is on hold . and moscow for it's part thinks that brussels has failed to do the mass that the surely for this is also senseless. for those who don't let the system work, because additional gas supply to the european market would unquestionably lower the stock and spot price. okay, so biden's worried about poor europeans being at the kremlin. marcy makes much more sense to pay more for american liquefied natural gas. and i have the privilege of being on washington's marcy, but that's not the only concern. another big issue crane won't get a cut. now at the moment, keith gets more than a $1000000000.00 a year for allowing russia to pipe gas through it. nordstrom to would bypass

ukraine and for some in brussels. that's unacceptable. these is unseen ones and the sanctions are unprecedented and have been coordinated and prepared with old partners. i would like to add that due to the close economic interdependence of all the partners involved, especially my country. yes, we are prepared to pay a high konami price when ukraine securities at stake, highness london, and a high price. it will be if moscow retaliates to any potential western sanctions. europe may have just 6 weeks of gas in the tank and then watts, because for washington's promises to find its allies, alternative energy sources. so far, nothing cattle said no can do, don't have the resources. you s company said we're max out in any way. we can't match the russian numbers. in fact, for all the threats and master pounds of biden. that's a real consensus. no, russian gas, no warm and cozy europe a global mass. europe has no alternative to russian gas. you have to divert half of

the liquefied natural gas that asia concerns that would mean massive energy shortages all across asia. this idea that we will fill the gap with liquefied natural gas. no, you can't little one to than that. the german chancellor has been less keen on publicly promising to turn off the tap, especially since he knows that even if they did decide to care about ukrainians, secure 10th brave the cold by hitting the old way by woods. well, even then there's a bit of a catch. there shouldn't be much of what you go to with guess. your developing nuclear energy will see you going to do burn firewood, which you don't even have that, that the with side barriers to get firewood. and yes, nordstrom to dead in the water, wouldn't be great for russia either, but then again, must go, didn't just sign a 30 year castiel with beijing, and just the fun they decided to settle the bell in euro, 70 political analysts. rayner ra 1st believes that despite american prussia nord stream too is too important for berlin to drop. germany understands that it is too

dependent on the north stream to project. we need the gas supplies for our domestic market in under circumstances when the gas prices are storing. many users of gas now are really, really under economic pressure through a soaring gas prices. and so i'm pretty confident that the german government will turn to a full certification off the pipeline project and will not sacrifice this joined to german russian gas supply project in the ongoing ukraine. conflict of these german language channel has appealed broadcast by imposed by berlin. the control the c surrounding r t d was one of the topics on the table for our exclusive talk with russian

foreign ministry spokeswoman maria, a car of a you renew persona think you should look at such conditions. i said that when our arguments are not accepted, janessa doubt, a direct blow. the german government said had nothing to do with the conflict, but they did not hide the irritable reaction to the work of r t. and the german union of journalists played a big role. you can say as much as you like that the employees of r t are not journalists. but for this you need to have some criteria for state funding is not an indicator. there are statements such as that german structures were supposed issue a license, but did not. therefore, broadcasting is prohibited in good. this is a classic trick of propagandist when a fact is taken from lies are added to it. all this is mixed up and offered to the consumer through your money, little garage only needs this gas, not because they love russia, but because they need it in principle to live, not as an extra resource. it is a vital thing. they invested their own money efforts, technologies,

then the americans came and said, we don't like all this take liquefied gas from us, but it will cost you dearly when the previous german government asked and how will people pay. they said, well. * if you think that german citizen should not pay a larger cost than just take more taxes from them. what kind of conversation is this machine is a politic norwood you me because i just don't movie tomorrow. we have been running the anti fake section for a long time. we give the most striking examples of fakes about our country. we give a detailed description of the lie before the started the olympics. the media, right, the russia is about to attack. then the bloomberg material comes out that it will not attack now because according to dubious bloomberg data, she ging ping co, putin announced not to attack during the olympics. then the opening of the games begins. when the media combine information for some reason,

a picture of the president of the russian federal sitting on the podium with ukrainian team, that's perhaps the west is already got used to the fact that this is a fantasy world. this invented stage picture is there, known pushing or not there is no need to is a military organization. they have no outlined as zone of influence or borders which would be the logical thing to do. there is no collective thought in nature. there is a desire to use a collective potential to realize u. s. sam bishan, c. a nate. her bosses are everywhere, appearing like mushrooms go to sleep and they're not located where there is a threat of terrorism. drug trafficking of kidnapping. they're concentrating closer and closer to russia. can you show me at least one effective nato operation everywhere, only destruction chaos and disorganization in the mid ideology, a mentality, a completely geared towards aggression. but he's a leading

u. k. charity has revealed that millions in britain are living on the bride line and are increasingly turning to food banks this winter. struggling households are also facing a triple threat right now. as inflation pushes up, grocery prices, energy bills are about to saw by over 50 percent. and government welfare payouts face big cuts. arti shoddy edwards dashti reports next from a food bank in london. well, touching suit on the table is the most important thing a parent should do for their kids. last month, a 1000000 adults in the u. k went at least a whole day without eating anything because they simply couldn't afford it as a familiar story that we come across in london in different burrows. many, many parents are doing that. they literally reduce nutritional intake. in order for the children to have a decent meal. and then if you look at what are decent meal is that in itself is awfully well balanced meal. rumbling tanny's and belly aches, are not uncommon as the cost of living source. 3 emergency food passes are handed out to families and need every minutes. energy prices, sky, high,

grocery prices are inflating, while government handouts are low forcing many people to rely on charity and food banks like this one to make ends meet. we've seen over the last 4 fortnight, an increase in 35 percent of all uses. the rise in inflation and the cost of living has affected impact at every single household. so it's come home to people. and you know, you've got a real choice of either your home or literally putting a full play of food on your plate. and it's the same pitch across the whole of the capitol. it's all about policies. it's all about policies, local policies, and, and how that trickle down to the end user, which is the local citizen in the community and how that impacts their daily life. the already harrowing di lemme of eating or heating is reaching a breaking point where households may be unable to do either one in 10 households have been skipping meals or going hungry, while about 2000000 children have been left without access to a healthy diet. the government says it will help alleviate the financial pressures

. we know this has been a challenging time for many people, which is why we're providing support, wealth around 12000000 pounds is financial year and next to help households. the cost of living, including putting an average of $1000.00 pounds more per year into the pockets of working families. we have announced a further 9000000000 pounds to protect against the impact of rising global energy prices. but it's not just those below the bread line seeking, people like taxes help financial difficulties. the pandemic cuts universal credit and soaring bills are taking its toll on families just getting by resulting in them doing something they never imagined. like using a food bank, the poverty affects everyone in a different way. it doesn't mean that you're out on the home homeless on the street with no money, no food. that's not the case. no more. you got working households lobbying efforts . if you all single parents, you got a whole different group of people that are affected in one way or another. and it's

kind of like putting an onion. i look in all the different layers you got to under some food and security is a lot more complex than they used to be. researched by food campaign is on supermarket. basic ranges shows an increase on the lowest cost items is way beyond average for incense, the cheapest generic pass to, for example, has risen a 141 percent and a year. and tesco a leading supermarket in the u. k. ones, it's only going to get worse. in some ways the west is still to come because although food price inflation in tesco last quarter was only one percent, we are impacted by rising energy prices. and it's not just brits bearing the brunt global food prices, sword by 1 point, one percent last month. as in closer to 2011, all time high. a whopping 22 percent of the population, or 14500000 people were living in poverty before the pandemic. 2.4000000 on the brink. that number is surely going to balloon in size is the cost of living souls

yet again. and while food banks are a lifeline, they can only go so far. shut, edwards dusty, haughty, london. can you in this out of the russian government moving forward? withdraw flores on the recognition of crypto currencies, where the focus protecting the rights of investors from financial crime, russian business, newspaper, commerce, sand reports, the crypto money will be class to standard currencies, not as digital assets or transactions will be checked, the possible connection with illegal activities and some access thing that regulating the crypto currency market could bring in over $40000000.00 to the russian budget within 5 years. right, let's see where this is heading that we've talked patrick young block chain and digital currency expo. good to have you back on our t rush is going to have a go. we're trying to regulate crypto currencies. how practical is that given that it's been after the wall for more than a decade? oh look, ultimately, all financial assets end up being regulated to some degree. it's going to be

a challenge. it oversee requires a great deal of technological skills, but at the same time, look at the russian financial marketplace as a whole. it was actually built by rocket scientist. i mean things like the moscow exchange originally r t f, my sex, quite literally programmed by a rocket scientist to come out of the saw your program. so therefore, it's going to be a challenge. but it's a very, very pragmatic, insensible move for russia at this juncture, to move forward by embracing crypt to turn seats, turning it into a currency, and therefore making it acceptable alongside the rebel. because russia, again to march on a vast number of other countries, not just in the local area region around russia, but in fact the world. and the whole point of digital currency is to go beyond the traditional banking system though doesn't. it's somewhat new to crypto currencies. let's separate that out for a 2nd. it's a great question, collins. there is a traditional banking system. the traditional banking system is in a 500 year super cycles i discussed to my latest spoken victory or death that is

ultimately coming to an end, but oversee 500 year cycles. take a long time to work their way. our banks are of course, yesterdays thing. the new era of money involves different forms of payment, rails different forms of digital transactions. but that doesn't necessarily mean that it should be beyond the regulatory system. full stop. it also doesn't mean that it's going to be habitually part of the banking system because we're already seeing alternatives to banking coming along through the new innovations of crypto currency. as a step towards a digital ruble. i think it's quite feasible. i mean, look at what's happening in the winter olympics, this week we're seeing that the wind of the chinese digital currency is accepted and all the stores for the spectators on the events. and also the competitors. makes every sense to me that ultimately you're going to see russia taking strong digital background and using that in order to give us a digital ruble, which will operate alongside a power play of all their digital currencies. the regulations that are being

proposed in this draw floor that it can only be dealt with through banks and through financial intermediaries in many ways that makes it less portable than a suitcase full of notes, doesn't it? well, it's going to be a different thing because don't forget, i mean we need to see the absolute detail in this regulation. but ultimately there's going to be some form of digital wallet. when people get the currency into their digital wallet, they are going to have a certain degree of flexibility about how they dispose of it in the same way. we need to go to a bank in order to manage to get that suitcase full of notes and the 1st place. so obviously there are restrictions. what the russian government is trying to do here is pragmatically ensure that snake oil salesmen, or sales women are not in the front line of promoting crypt occurrences. so therefore, you're going to tend to be buying it from a regulated financial intermediary. that in many ways makes a great deal of common sense because we've seen far too many ponzi schemes we've seen far too many dubious factors in the crypt currency business. we've even seen

crept the currency exchanges as we all know which have been going bust because they weren't actually properly well organized from the very start of this whole for rocco, might got 10 years ago. so therefore it's logical. the people are going to be able to trust the place that they initially buy their crypto currency. after that, there's every reason why they'll be able to deal with it peer to peer with people around the world and across the russian continent. up until now russia central bank wanted to ban crypto mining in russia. so what do you think there is the shift now? is it kind of a recognition of giving it the jets in the see the just economic opportunities to be hired here or bowing to the inevitable government opportunism. i don't mean to say that the government is overly opportunistic, but it's an opportunity for russia. and i think that you've seen from the kremlin dawn, but they understand that there's a huge potential here. the russian central bank, they're charged with one thing which is essentially keep the ruble as credible as

possible. so therefore introducing and embracing lots of competitors isn't in their mandate. their need, they need to be told by their bosses what they're going to be doing going forward. so it's understandable. they followed the global practice, which was essentially 2 s to the whole concept of prep the currency. whereas the government sees a huge opportunity look at the amount of sheep power, hydro, electric power, all sorts of other sources that you have in regions such as yak foods. air could a really to name but 3 in russia, which are all going to be encouraged to be used for crypto mining. that's very pragmatic because a lot of people are complaining about the, the footprint for mining of the currency. but yet, there you have buying p s resources of energy, very, very low cost as well, and they can be exploited. it's a huge business opportunity. russia has talked often about wanting to have a great financial center to the east of the country. what could be a better opportunity than the potential for a massive crypto currency center? what, what about for normal people just possibly wanting to invest a little bit in,

in it would use it for payments. can crypto currency ever replace real currency or at least give it some severe competition? look, we're going to live through an era where we're going to see these things increasingly existing in parallel lines. the issue for essentially old fashioned government fee of currency is high. well, it compares high, well, it offers the value over the long term, and we all know that there are some currencies in the world that have been subject to savage depreciation over the course of the last 10205070 years. therefore, crypto currencies. they've got to prove themselves that they're actually a reasonable store value or a better way in which you can make transactions more cheaply. and that's going to be very exciting because the one thing we know is certainly competition in free markets tends to drive innovation and a better cost. a better standard of living for the citizens of the world. will know that anybody nursing some pitiful savings rates on their cash savings accounts are looking at i watering inflation i'm sure they'll now give crypto currencies

a 2nd look. ok, patrick, gun block 10 and digital currency. extra good to talk to you. thank you. okay, that's it. that's all we got, so i for, for that, he's blocked this hour. thanks for checking in with all the international. i'm calling probably back with you with another update and around 33 minutes focusing with algorithms and neural networks have been following us everywhere. we look online because our relationships are what matters most us and that's how we find meeting and how we make sense of our place in the silicon valley. see, don't mention in that slick presentations. however, all the ghost workers who train the software humans are involved in every step of

the process. when you're using anything online. what we're sold, as is, miracle of automation behind your screen. it's a long rouble workforce that feeds algorithms for next to nothing. on a very good day, i could do $5.00 now. a really bad day. i could do 10 since he's workers or him, isabel, by design. it's about labor costs, but it's also about creating layers of western responsibility between those who solicit this kind of work and need it. and those who do it with wild sanctions remain high over ukraine. one thing has abundantly been made clear. russia and nato have fundamentally different ideas about playing european security. and neither side appears to be in the mood to compromise. is this why the propaganda war is reaching new heights?

algorithm, so neural networks have been following us everywhere. we look online. our relationships are what matters most to us, and that's how we find meeting and how we make sense of our place in the world. what silicon valley see, don't mention in that slick presentations. however, on the ghost workers who train the software, humans are involved in every step of the process when you're using anything online . but we're sold, as is miracle of automation behind your screen. it's a long rouble workforce that feeds algorithm. it's fun next to nothing. on a very good day, i can do $5.00 now. a really bad day. i can do $0.10. these workers are invisible by design. it's about labor costs, but it's also about creating layers of lessening responsibility between those who solicit this kind of work and need it. and those who do it with

with this is them bud bowen? business. yeah, you can't afford to miss, i'm rachel was in washington.
