Comfort Sakoma, the former Vice-Chair of the Vancouver Police Board, who resigned under political pressure after sharing pro-Canadian statements on social media now faces a concerning escalation in the fallout from her public exile.

This is a really super interview by Drea w Comfort Sakoma. It really shows that @RebelNewsOnline fills a unique niche in the media world. I don't think any of the news outlets that have critiqued @avunzesakoma have the capacity for an interview like this.
Well done by both women. https://t.co/U0rzlox6vT

Sakoma’s troubles first began after former MLA and CKNW radio host Jas Johal shared a series of Sakoma’s Instagram stories, which raised concerns about parental rights, the erosion of Christian and traditional values in society, and the impact mass immigration is having on Canada’s “changing identity.”

BC NDP MLA Garry Begg condemned Sakoma’s centrist views as “hateful,” and BC Conservative MLA Eleanor Sturko claimed they were “offensive” against the transgender community and served to erode public trust in law enforcement, despite Sakoma’s statements doing nothing of the sort.

According to Sakoma, since the public exile from the board, she’s received much love and support but also disturbing threats of violence and even bizarre claims made since Tuesday that someone had been hired to assassinate her.

“My first thought was: my son is at daycare. Is he safe? I didn’t want to call the daycare and give them any cause for alarm because I didn’t want that to affect his continued enrolment,” Sakoma shared with Rebel News. “But I immediately just thought, especially because the person said, ‘I’ve been watching you,’ is my child safe?”

In researching the incident, Rebel News learned that the Prince George RCMP had issued a public warning in July about a“hitman scam” targeting Canadians. The scam follows a similar pattern, where victims receive assassination threats via text or phone after gleaning information from online, and are then extorted for money to “call off” the hit.

When informed of this finding, Sakoma felt relief but also frustration that the public vilification of her name likely contributed to her becoming a target for such threats.

“It does make me very reflective on the state of our province and our country, especially when it comes to just freedom of speech. Over the past week, I've had an opportunity to really reflect on what exactly happened to me and how an individual was able to mischaracterize everything that I said,” expressed Sakoma.

"It's been a roller coaster of a week. In between managing all of the craziness and all the blessings that have come from the internet, I still have to be a mom. I still have to fulfill my mom duties. I still have to figure out what's next for me in terms of jobs. There's a lot of concern in my mind just around, will I ever be employable again in the province?"

BACKFIRED: A fine example of what often happens when the radical left who pretend that black lives matter when politically convenient—try to put a black life that disagrees with them back in their place. https://t.co/73njtspndw

Despite these challenges, Sakoma refuses to be silenced. She has announced plans to launch a podcast called Freedom over Fear to inspire other Canadians to speak boldly for their Conservative beliefs.

The Liberals still say they’re committed to bringing in censorship. Bill C-63 would create unprecedented censorship agencies, investigate your online posts, and even impose hate speech restraining orders before words are spoken. Rebel News has fought Trudeau’s censorship in courts across Canada, spending over $500,000 on free speech lawyers this year alone. To protect freedom of speech, we’re ready to challenge this law the moment it passes. If you believe in standing up to this censorship, please chip in to our legal defence fund and join the 75,000+ Canadians who have signed our petition. We have to fight this — if we don’t, the law will be used to silence us, and to silence you, too.
