Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault still hasn’t paid Rebel News founder Ezra Levant $20,000 in court-ordered damages.
After Guilbeault blocks Levant two years ago, Levant sued him, arguing he had a right to see Guilbeault’s government account, as “it was a government service like any other.”
“Hey deadbeat. Yeah, you Steven Guilbeault. A month ago the Federal Court ordered you to pay me $20,000 and you still haven’t. Pay up or I’ll have your salary garnisheed or maybe your limo seized. I see you didn’t pay your taxes, either. Once a crook always a crook, I guess,” Levant posted on X.
On September 11, Judge Russel W. Zinn ordered Guilbeault to unblock Levant’s X account any time while serving as a Member of Parliament.
“Cost of the application shall be payable by the Respondents to the Applicants in the total fixed amount of $20,000 (all inclusive), payable within 90 days of this order,” Zinn stated.
Guilbeault still has until December 10 to pay Levant.
