Hey Canada, my fellow Albertans, shit just got real.
00:00:09.040
Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. Wednesday, January the 7th. Hope you're having
00:00:13.160
a great start to your Wednesday morning, 3.33 a.m. with my big blue mug of coffee. And you know,
00:00:19.660
just when I thought I couldn't get happier about what's going on here in Alberta,
00:00:25.140
people are starting to take notice of what's happening here in Alberta. The rest of the
00:00:29.640
country is taking note of what's happening here in Alberta and they're getting nervous.
00:00:35.820
But I'm telling you, I'm on cloud nine this morning because, you know, we went from just
00:00:41.720
before Christmas finding out that the question we had had been accepted and that we were going
00:00:49.560
to be moving ahead with a petition campaign to having that campaign get underway about five
00:00:55.820
days ago to having our first signature last night. And lo and behold, who was the first
00:01:02.120
signature? Here's Marty up north. I'm just going to get in touch with Jeff Rath later today. I want
00:01:07.140
to talk to him. I want to, I want to see what he was feeling when he actually did this. This is
00:01:14.640
historic. Jeff Rath is the first person to sign the petition to get an Alberta independence referendum
00:01:21.560
in 2026. Packed house in Water Valley. It makes me grin seeing Jeff sign that petition. Congratulations
00:01:38.900
to Jeff. I hope to be signing a petition myself on Saturday night at an event here in Calgary. And I
00:01:45.000
know you're getting impatient. I'll tell you how you can do it in just a moment, including a big event
00:01:49.040
coming up late January here in Calgary. But this video isn't so much a video about celebrating this
00:01:56.400
signature signing campaign, which we knew was coming. This is a warning video because you have
00:02:02.300
to ask the question to what lengths will the other side go to try to stop this process from going
00:02:09.300
forward and to stop us from getting independence. And it's going to be everything. They're going to
00:02:14.360
throw the whole kitchen sink at us with this. They've already started off by calling us
00:02:18.600
traitors, suggesting we should be unalived if we're in favor of this. They've called us seditionists.
00:02:24.300
We're not traitors. This isn't treason. Right now for the people of Alberta and the people who want
00:02:28.660
independence and the people who want better for their families, this is self-preservation at this
00:02:33.920
point for Alberta. If you're the person in the middle and aren't really convinced about this,
00:02:39.960
first off, go to an event and hear what people have to say. But ask yourself the question,
00:02:44.940
if Alberta was not a province right now, would you join Canada the way it is right now? You would
00:02:50.800
probably say no. And that's probably a great reason to vote for independence. The other side
00:02:55.940
right now, all they've got is patriotism. They can't give you valid reasons why we should stay
00:03:02.040
in Canada. We have got dozens of reasons why we should leave.
00:03:07.140
So they're going to resort to shenanigans. I'll show you that in a moment. And they're going to
00:03:12.420
resort to fear, to scare you away from this. And folks, they're going to the same playbook they used
00:03:19.260
last year in the federal election. No doubt the people on the other side of this who are saying
00:03:25.340
we won't get enough signatures, who are saying we can't win this, are scared when they see hundreds
00:03:31.080
of people show up in small town Alberta to these events night after night after night. Don't listen
00:03:38.240
to them. People said Brexit wouldn't win. Donald Trump was not going to win the presidency. He has
00:03:44.020
won twice. And then you see this kind of stuff that's happening right now. Alberta radio breaking
00:03:52.960
forever Canadian volunteers and staff plan to sabotage the Alberta independence petition.
00:03:58.000
Open calls to sign up to the volunteering, to manipulate the petitions and signature gathering.
00:04:04.440
Again, an initiative by Thomas and the NDP unions. These people are openly discussing fraud
00:04:10.380
and political interference. And you can see people here. I think we should all sign up as canvassers,
00:04:15.620
but not collect signatures. Somebody says, better yet, collect signatures and then not hand them in.
00:04:20.840
If you go out to sign somewhere, ask the person who is behind the desk why they want Alberta
00:04:27.000
independence. Somebody who doesn't want Alberta independence won't be able to answer it. So find
00:04:32.300
another place to sign. A legit place. Like an event by the Alberta Prosperity Project. But then you get
00:04:38.960
stuff like this from Thomas Lukasik, Mr. Captain Canada, Mr. Forever Canadian. This is the fear campaign
00:04:45.960
and it's the same fear campaign that the liberals used in the election. Don't let this frighten you.
00:04:53.460
I have no doubt. You got to think this is happening. I have no doubt that Ottawa, I'm meaning the
00:04:59.720
Liberal Party, I'm meaning the Canadian government will be feeding stories like this to left-wing media
00:05:04.640
like the Globe and Mail to try to scare people away from Alberta independence. Don't buy it.
00:05:11.580
Listen, if you're in Alberta right now and you voted conservative in the federal election,
00:05:15.860
don't let them scare you with this narrative. Now here is Thomas Lukasik,
00:05:20.360
Albertans. This no longer is fun and games. It never was. What seemed unreal was separatist aid
00:05:26.520
is now reality. In this context, Canadians must acknowledge the real risk that Mr. Trump will
00:05:31.640
use military coercion against our country. Now he wants you to support his forever Canadian. All he's
00:05:37.260
got is patriotism. He's got nothing when it comes to why Alberta should stay in Canada and what is this
00:05:44.200
story about? Read this. This is the same thing, folks, as the liberals used to win the election.
00:05:50.940
Connecting these dots, a plausible scenario for U.S. application of military force against Canada
00:05:56.800
to seize our oil resources goes something like this. An independence referendum in Alberta during
00:06:03.080
which separatists receive a huge infusion of gray MAGA money sees a majority vote to remain part of Canada.
00:06:10.100
But with 30 percent or more voting for separation, Mr. Trump declares the result is fake and that
00:06:16.080
actual support for separation was well over 50 percent. Alberta separatists then appeal to the
00:06:21.100
U.S. for help, claiming various kinds of oppression. The U.S. moves troops to the northern Montana border
00:06:26.620
and tells the rest of Canada that Alberta must be allowed to join America as the 51st state.
00:06:31.920
The campaign of fear is on, folks. This is nonsense. It's garbage. The Alberta Prosperity Project,
00:06:38.740
Mitch Sylvester, who is the CEO, is doing this legit.
00:06:45.140
If we lose the referendum fair and square, we lose. But if we win, we win. This is a campaign of
00:06:52.080
fear. This is nonsense. You're going to see a lot more of this. Don't buy it. Don't buy it like the
00:06:58.380
elbows up folks who did in the election last year. You know the people you laugh at as you were voting
00:07:04.220
conservative here in Alberta and your provinces getting screwed over by the East who constantly
00:07:09.040
put liberals in power in Ottawa. Keep that in mind. This is just going to get worse and worse
00:07:17.660
all the time. There's so much for them to lose. There is so much for us to gain. Go to an event.
00:07:25.040
Sign the petition. Let's get our vote on independence. Now, I will be out on Saturday night.
00:07:30.380
I'm excited about this. I'm going to be sort of a moderator, MC at this event.
00:07:37.460
And this is happening. Let me give you the details down at the bottom. The Queensland Community
00:07:40.960
Center. I expect a petition to be here. I can hardly wait. I'm going to get somebody to video me
00:07:44.920
signing the petition. I'm so excited. I'm so excited for this event because we've got great
00:07:50.500
guests out at this event. I'll bring this up so you can see their faces. Corey Morgan will be there.
00:07:57.520
Corey's been on my channel. I respect this man. In fact, over there in behind me, underneath that
00:08:03.580
flag, you can see his book. The Sovereignty's Handbook. Go to Amazon and buy Corey's book and
00:08:08.560
read it. I listened to it a couple of years ago. I'm in the process of reading it again. Go buy his
00:08:13.360
book. Corey from the Western Standard, The Corey Morgan Show. He'll be talking about treaties and the
00:08:17.980
nonsense you're hearing about that. Earlier this week, apparently, some native group in Alberta was
00:08:23.660
blocking the independence movement. Not happening, folks. They can't do it.
00:08:29.140
Eva Chippyuk will be there as well. She works with Jeff Rath. She'll be talking about what happens
00:08:33.680
the day after we vote in favor of independence. Really, it's just a couple of words she'll be
00:08:39.600
saying, but she'll explain everything to you. And Dennis Kalma will be there, who I had on here
00:08:44.640
a short while ago. Let me reach over here. Dennis wrote this. If you've got any questions about
00:08:50.380
your economics and how this will benefit your family economically, Dennis can answer the questions.
00:08:55.540
He co-wrote this with Jeff Rath. And then you can see my face there as well. Now, the great thing
00:09:00.380
about this is we're going to have microphones there. I'll be moderating. You can ask these people
00:09:05.420
questions if you've got any concerns. They've got the answers. And it's not fear. It's hope.
00:09:13.400
Now, if you're wanting to go to an event, go to albertaprosperity.com. And you can see there are
00:09:21.520
all these events coming up. And there's going to be a lot more of them. They expect to do hundreds
00:09:25.500
of these events where you can sign up and sign your name on a petition. But there's this big event
00:09:32.920
coming up, which I will be at. I'm excited about it. This is at the BMO Center, January 26,
00:09:40.140
7 o'clock. I assume they're going to have dozens of tables set up. And they're going to have 6,000
00:09:45.920
to 6,500 people in the BMO Center on that date talking about this movement. So make sure you put
00:09:53.100
that on your calendar. And if you want to sign up, go over to the Alberta Prosperity Project website,
00:09:58.520
go to the 26th of January on their events page and RSVP. You have to do that to be at that event.
00:10:04.280
But do not accept the campaign of fear that is coming. It's the same thing that liberals used.
00:10:11.820
And here's one more plea I've got for you. I haven't heard too many people say this.
00:10:16.480
Back in 2021, I believe it was, there was a referendum already here in Alberta.
00:10:22.140
And 61% of the people in that referendum said they want to end transfer or equalization payments
00:10:33.120
to the East. 61%. Because we give way too much money to the East and very little of it comes back
00:10:42.000
to Alberta. One of the reasons why we want independence. We could do far better with that
00:10:46.240
money ourself than having Ottawa filter it back to us. 61% voted in favor of ending equalization
00:10:55.060
payments. And it has never happened. Why? Because it never will. Because all the steps you have to go
00:11:00.980
through to have that happen. The only way that is going to happen, folks, is if we vote to leave.
00:11:07.160
So if you're one of the 61% and you want to end up giving welfare to the East, you need to vote in
00:11:13.780
favor of Alberta independence. Thank you very much. So excited. Go to an event. If you're not sure
00:11:21.320
about what's going on and you're not sure about independence, ask the questions. There are plenty
00:11:26.660
of answers. All the other side has is patriotism and it's just not good enough anymore. I still have
00:11:34.020
lots of family in Canada. They all live out in Ontario. They'll still be there when we leave.
00:11:38.960
We'll just have a different relationship, but we'll have our independence. Thanks for watching.
