Good morning. Good afternoon. It's Sunday. I'm getting baptized today. It's a rest day on Sunday. No interviews today. We're going to go check out Street Church, though. Archer Paplowski's Street Church, where he feeds the homeless outside City Hall in Calgary.
00:00:23.520
And we're going to film some B-roll. Might capture some interviews, I guess. I'll be ready for that. Those would be kind of off the cuff, just running gun. I would do it on my phone. But yeah, getting baptized later. Might have time for breakfast before that. We'll see. We'll see if there's anything near City Hall that I can snack on or get a coffee.
00:00:53.520
But yeah, let's get her. Calgary's one of those cities with a lot of one-ways. One way, the other way, one way, the other way. Also, what the heck is that?
00:01:12.220
I kind of like that it's like a baby face, but it's also like it looks like a digital, you know? Something creepy about it. Something creepy about it!
00:01:20.960
Feels great to be traveling light today. Just one backpack. One light backpack. It feels so light.
00:01:28.680
Last night, I was coming back from the interview, lugging all the equipment in one go, and it was just so heavy.
00:01:37.180
I got a new tripod from a friend. He knows who he is.
00:01:48.700
And it's really nice, but it's heavy. It is a heavy, sturdy tripod.
00:02:00.280
In 400 meters, turn left onto 9th Avenue Southeast.
00:02:21.320
This reminds me so much of the satanic statues in Ottawa.
00:02:42.460
I mean, does this stuff remind you of anything other than, like...
00:03:07.640
Anyway, you know it's some godless person who made this, you know what I mean?
00:03:26.420
It's somewhat provocative and interesting, I guess.
00:03:29.180
But it's not really, like, a beautiful thing of, like,
00:03:59.080
And as I was kind of, like, spieling about it like I am now,
00:04:33.560
if we're up to me and I can make a stroke of the pen,
00:04:48.520
I found my people for Street Church just outside there.
00:05:05.240
Anyway, I need to go out there and start filming
00:05:54.480
Want to document some of this while I'm out here.
00:05:59.980
Oh, I've known about Street Church since I moved here.
00:06:02.900
I was traveling on the C train going to work with my wife.
00:06:20.560
And then a bunch of homosexuals didn't like what he was doing.
00:06:44.880
Yeah, we started coming to his church there about maybe four times.
00:06:51.280
Because we never believed in the BS that was going on.
00:07:00.180
The most people that didn't fall for the narrative,
00:07:11.240
Because, yeah, like, I totally don't agree with any of what they say or anything.
00:07:19.940
Apparently, there's, like, lots of money going through our reservation.
00:07:24.200
I'll hold that for you if you want to take a sip.
00:07:32.800
And we had to change our name from Gitsen Wet'suwet'en to Witsen.
00:07:36.140
And that was because you didn't want to be, like, associated with these protesters?
00:07:42.620
The Tide Foundation was using our name as, oh, the Indians are against the pipeline,
00:07:48.820
We're 83% were for it because we wanted to get out of poverty.
00:07:52.200
We wanted to excel and have our own businesses.
00:07:59.860
What we are doing here, we are fighting for their lives.
00:08:05.180
Because, statistically, around seven people a week are dying on these streets.
00:08:18.320
How many we don't know about ODing, being thrown into the freezing river, stabbed, shot,
00:08:27.200
So seven people, imagine, and you don't know who you're not going to see next week.
00:08:34.080
And the question is, are they going to heaven or hell?
00:08:40.100
And so, the fight is real, it is intense, and their chains can only, at the end of the day,
00:08:50.600
be broken through the words of truth, which is the gospel.
00:08:54.620
You know, I'm getting baptized today by Archer.
00:09:04.900
Ask for the baptism of the fire right after you get baptized in water.
00:09:21.040
I'm going to perfect myself as a Christian, and then I'm going to do something for Jesus.
00:09:32.100
And God, when you go out, when you do God's will, He will sanctify you.
00:09:39.460
Sometimes it takes a whole life of sanctification.
00:09:54.980
My heart will make sure you stay there for at least a minute, minute and a half.
00:10:09.920
What do you think of, uh, Arthur Pawlowski's character?
00:10:12.900
Because they say a lot of things about him in the media.
00:10:21.560
I've taken him out hunting, and I've got to know him.
00:10:24.140
If you want to know somebody, take him out hunting or fishing.
00:10:51.920
But, uh, during my teenage years, I was misguided, and I didn't have a dad,
00:10:56.180
and I just went off to the, to the left, to the bad side.
00:11:00.300
But then I had a revelation when I was 21, and, uh, I seen the light, and I came back.
00:11:06.940
Did you want to, uh, comment on the residential schools and the arm-marked graves?
00:11:27.040
Um, but you gotta think, that was a long time ago.
00:11:35.400
And, you know, there could be people there from pioneer days.
00:11:44.300
So, the CBC was just blowing that out of proportion.
00:11:54.520
Don't be a victim, and always, poor me, me, poor me.
00:12:09.160
Hey, if you guys are enjoying this content, then consider making a donation to help me
00:12:13.720
create this documentary about free speech in Canada.
00:12:17.120
I'm interviewing the most persecuted Canadians in the country.
00:12:33.860
It's, uh, I think it's because they're, uh, helping the less fortunate in our city.
00:12:54.980
And not many people do that today, so I come here for that.
00:13:01.000
I know he's been, uh, doing this for over 20 years now.
00:13:12.200
And I think that's, that's the importance of everything.
00:13:16.500
Is help, like I said, helping the less fortunate in, you know, just necessity of, like, food,
00:13:30.960
And it's been always, from what I've now researched, a backlash for some reason.
00:13:52.380
There has to be an accountability in this government.
00:14:11.980
They fly to London for three days and spend $120,000 just to accommodate themselves.
00:14:24.180
You'll be in jail for the rest of your life, probably, right?
00:14:31.900
And this guy's doing it out of the goodness of his heart.
00:14:50.040
We're on Archer's truck or van to go and get baptized.
00:14:57.060
My new friend Max is also getting baptized today.
00:15:20.020
Is there a place to not change or go to the bathroom?
00:15:33.860
Like, I'm going straight into the water, right?
00:15:55.740
These are the shorts I'm going to be wearing when I get baptized.
00:16:01.600
Nice river, real river, you know, to be baptized in.
00:16:06.040
You know, you're connecting with the whole planet there, really.
00:16:35.580
The Bow River, you know, like the Bow and Arrow sort of thing.
00:16:49.120
That's a Celtic name, Calgary, means clear water.
00:17:52.040
Have you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
00:17:56.040
Have you repented, turned away from your wicked ways, from your sins?
00:18:02.040
Do you believe he died for you, rose from the grave and is coming back to judge the living and the dead?
00:18:08.040
In the confession I baptize you today in the name of the Father, the Son and of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
00:19:02.040
Max is actually another guy who's like a filmmaker
00:19:08.040
um yeah so that was special that was definitely special and yeah archer gave a it was funny
00:19:15.560
archer gave a specific prayer of like he was praying over us after we got baptized
00:19:20.160
and he talked about you know give he he was basically he was basically i'm not this isn't
00:19:29.320
what he said but like he was basically saying hey when this guy's editing the long interview we did
00:19:34.780
together give him the like super powered wisdom to know use this don't use this use this don't use
00:19:42.340
this and i appreciated the personalized uh prayer from arthur there um and yeah i mean i mean what
00:19:52.220
better than being baptized in a real river by a real man of christ he was literally feeding the
00:20:01.780
homeless right before he baptized me i don't know to me that just feels reassuring that uh
00:20:08.900
and and you know i haven't really talked about this much on my channel or whatever but
00:20:13.340
i i have wanted to get baptized for a little while in 300 meters turn left on 16th avenue northwest i've
00:20:21.460
wanted to always get baptized for a little while now and it's like i want archer to be the man to do it
00:20:28.300
because i feel like archer has a relationship has a close relationship with god and it's like that
00:20:35.720
just kind of gives me a lot of confidence you know but um right now i'm headed to grab a quick bite
00:20:43.220
to eat and then we're going to be going to the remand center in calgary to do a demonstration for
00:20:48.940
reimer derrick reimer uh he's been thrown in jail for protesting drag time story hour
00:20:56.100
um he's got a wife in i think one one kid two kids i'm not sure but he's you know he's been
00:21:02.880
thrown in jail for just protesting this drag time story hour stuff so yeah archer's going to be there
00:21:09.900
of course so we're going to capture some content there i'm kind of excited to change out of these
00:21:15.080
damp clothes and yeah got got batteries to charge hard drives to transfer i got a hard
00:21:22.620
like i want to back up everything on the hard drive to the cloud now so i might be going to
00:21:27.800
someone else's place who has better internet um just to make sure i can clean up all the cards and
00:21:33.620
i also gotta uh get in touch with people to schedule in these interviews um might be going to lethbridge
00:21:42.020
by the sounds of it hopefully um so yeah hopefully i can figure that out but it's been nice this has
00:21:49.340
definitely been a day off in terms of you know a lot more chill turn left on 16th avenue northwest
00:21:54.980
i'm gonna let you go for now and we'll talk later just headed to the uh calgary remand center
00:22:03.240
to do the uh demonstration for derrick reimer but you know i'm honestly reflecting on uh
00:22:09.500
archer paulowski and how you know over the past few days i interviewed him i went to his church
00:22:16.520
service i got baptized turn left onto john laurie boulevard northwest west i i went to uh street
00:22:23.620
church he's been feeding the homeless you know now he's doing this demonstration and uh
00:22:30.700
this is like a typical week for him this is like a typical weekend uh feeding the homeless baptizing
00:22:41.620
like he's always on you know what i mean like where does he get that strength from god obviously
00:22:50.860
but uh you know it's just something that's very inspiring when you see a man like archer who is
00:22:58.680
who truly is like i don't want to say selfless because that's sort of a loaded buzzword potentially
00:23:07.920
but someone who is clearly like letting god use him every single day to do god's work
00:23:16.640
um i don't know i'm i'm 35 years old and my gut tells me is like you know getting to meet and
00:23:27.280
witness someone like archer like being his element is uh something very special uh and it's not to put
00:23:36.120
him on a pedestal but it's um it's it's very humbling and also inspiring to like see some be among
00:23:44.480
somebody like that who who gets a lot done who gets a lot done doesn't complain has a great sense
00:23:51.400
humor you know continues to get mud slung at him and all sorts of bullshit to deal with
00:23:58.480
and just to see that in action to see that sort of like faith that he has
00:24:08.400
it's it's something to behold it's something to
00:24:18.120
and yeah it's like god is real you can see him you can see him working through archer that's how i see
00:24:26.920
it maybe that sounds crazy to some of y'all but
00:24:29.120
yeah i got uh the official burda hat i've been told that this is the official
00:24:36.440
burda outfit i'm gonna blend right in uh so yeah i'm not visiting i've always lived here guys
00:24:46.020
always lived here i'm excited to see what's going to be at the remand center
00:24:49.920
but i'll see you there in a minute the next right then turn left
00:25:02.040
father god today you reminded me that daniel prayed
00:25:14.900
for a few weeks he prayed and the answer was not coming because it was a war
00:25:21.200
it was a fight out there but he kept praying he kept clawing he kept putting the seed into
00:25:29.580
the ground and father god you have given him a mighty victory
00:25:33.440
so today in the name of jesus we pray for a mighty victory
00:25:36.760
father god a mighty victory for your church in canada
00:25:41.080
the church that it's now under the boots of a totalitarian regime
00:25:47.080
father god we break its powers we break the neck
00:25:52.360
of dictatorship in the name of jesus christ of nazis
00:25:56.160

00:26:02.760

00:26:20.500
in this province in the name of jesus father god may your perfect will manifest in this life

00:26:36.620

00:26:50.500
you know we have been doing this together for a few years now and i've never seen him upset
00:27:16.360
or angry or that's it i'm i'm fed up i'm done actually quite opposite another one oh yeah
00:27:25.500
let's do it okay always smiling always joyful i would call himself like well there is this
00:27:32.020
situation what we do are we doing it okay let's do it flash says no yeah flash says i'm tired
00:27:39.860
i don't want to do it i want to watch netflix that's what the flash is saying i want to order pizza
00:27:45.620
and just put my feet up and forget about this craziness but the spirit says if you don't do
00:27:51.660
it and who is going to do it if we don't do it this girl mona would be lost like a baby
00:27:58.740
without the support like what would she do she would be terrified she would be unable
00:28:05.160
to do anything because those people are corrupted they're scary they're dangerous so you need a
00:28:12.840
community to come and that's what we do we provide community
00:28:16.480
look at that's a giant slave yeah this woman actually believe it or not she took down are
00:28:24.020
you ready you will not believe this this is a story that you cannot believe this is the lady
00:28:28.640
that uh when we were running uh when our party was running in the last election
00:28:34.000
um i was asking the church members who wants to represent the party uh on a ballot and she comes
00:28:41.820
to me you know she's fast so it took a while but finally she she came to me and she said
00:28:47.820
god spoke to me and he said that i am to throw my name on the ballot but i have no idea what to do
00:28:58.120
i've never done it so i prayed and i said god i don't know anything about politics what am i to
00:29:04.620
do and he said but i know just put your name there you know that this lady took down the minister of
00:29:10.580
justice in the last election yeah that's that's the lady took her took her down by splitting votes
00:29:17.580
by splitting votes she took down the minister of justice chandra they were so mad piece of cake right
00:29:25.280
it's it's just what she does if she's not drumming she's taking down the justice minister i mean think
00:29:31.180
about it a lady that had no clue just put her name on the ballot because god told her to do it
00:29:37.180
and there was over 100 votes that was good enough to take the minister of justice that arrested us all
00:29:43.440
that's the man that arrested us she took down is that god cool yeah i think it's cool and god do the
00:29:51.420
glory and i just want to say because there's a lot of people who i'm sure you've encountered
00:29:55.060
there is no political solution voting is silly blah blah blah like what would you say to
00:29:59.580
in response to that if wicked people rule you the country the city the province is in trouble
00:30:06.800
when good people rule people are blessed why would why would you want to have a evil corrupted man
00:30:14.440
that has power over your children it's beyond me i want a godly man a man that doesn't want to rape me
00:30:21.960
i don't like being raped maybe maybe you're different that's up to you i don't like being robbed i don't
00:30:27.300
like being raped i don't like being slowly murdered i actually like life i love my children i love my
00:30:34.720
community i want to bless them i don't want to steal from them i want to give them that's why we feed the
00:30:40.180
poor so why would you want to have a evil man at the realm on the top instead of good man godly man
00:30:49.480
that loves you and cares for you and actually wants to serve you not to rob you right and that's the
00:30:56.700
problem is that we have a sleepy dead that's the problem country they're they're dead to god you
00:31:02.300
know when i was young we used to we used to do the prayer in school you know we did the lord's prayer
00:31:07.300
and then we did a pledge to the queen and a couple other things and then they came along and it was
00:31:14.020
about 1972 or something and they said to me and i was old enough to remember they said you know you
00:31:19.800
have so many other people from different countries coming in and they have different religions so it's
00:31:23.880
really unfair if we continue to do the lord's prayer because that's a christian and i wasn't i was young
00:31:30.300
and dumb enough to go yeah you know what that sounds reasonable to me i guess we shouldn't do that
00:31:34.500
because we'll make our friends uncomfortable and uh so that's where canada came from right we were
00:31:39.480
friendly inviting come on in and then all of a sudden they're taking out the prayers then we moved
00:31:45.320
away from god and here we are we have evil wicked men running the country and they are killing us
00:31:50.200
literally killing us so here's the thing if you keep doing revolving door what i mean is by if you're
00:31:56.540
going to keep voting for the same players the same actors then i agree with you vote will change
00:32:02.000
nothing you've got one devil and you will replace him with another devil that's why we have to change
00:32:07.140
completely and stop voting for the same actors the bad actors and start voting for neighbors for people
00:32:14.940
that actually know what we are but this is facing i find myself identifying with a lot of lamentations
00:32:21.420
right now yeah oh yeah yeah no it's it's true because the nation is groaning people are hurting
00:32:28.260
children are hurting i can hear their crying they're hurting because they have no leadership
00:32:34.460
they have no godly parents they are kind of let go without real hope and there is zero accountability
00:32:43.040
there are no checks and balances so the whole nation is crying literally is crying for someone
00:32:50.120
to rise up a lot of a lot of work to do a lot of work to do but hey again arthur god bless you
00:32:56.200
absolutely i'm on this trip out west to interview persecuted canadians like arthur pavlowski for an
00:33:04.860
