00:02:00.320 i love pig roast it's been a long long time since i've been at a big roast so i'm excited about that
00:02:05.900 so the idea is to hit a bunch of different places on the way before we actually tally up the
00:02:11.040 signatures when we get to our final destination correct exactly we've got uh there's lists on
00:02:17.480 cruise to alberta independence facebook page you'll probably put show them on your on your
00:02:22.400 screen as well i will show all the details and all the stops and everything that we'll be doing
00:02:26.820 along the way there's four stops along the way for each team that have to be hit for one hour
00:02:32.700 all of these stops were located because they don't have permanent signing stations right now
00:02:37.880 and they're kind of just like small little holes in the wall where we would have never got to during
00:02:42.700 the campaign right so yeah these people some of them are elderly some of them are just they don't
00:02:47.060 like leaving town so we're going to come to those towns we're going to bring it to them and give
00:02:51.100 them the opportunity to sign before we have to wrap this up outstanding now just tell people
00:02:55.300 where they'll meet in their respective towns here in calgary we'll be at deerfoot city which is
00:03:01.340 just kind of north in the city right along deerfoot trail but what about the other the other cities
00:03:06.000 The other cities are all on that last sheet that I just put out on the page that we've got on Facebook.
00:03:14.640 But generally, we tried to find sites that are center of town or high traffic areas.
00:03:20.600 But he's asking where is the meetup point at the beginning?
00:03:23.900 Where are you leaving?
00:03:24.640 Edmonton.
00:03:25.120 Yeah, yeah.
00:03:26.060 The beginning will be in Calgary's going to be meeting where we always do at iFly in Deerfoot City.
00:03:32.200 Right.
00:03:33.100 Edmonton's going to be meeting at Bonnie Dune Mall, where they always meet.
00:03:36.320 And then Red Deer, they're going to be meeting at Peter's Drive-In,
00:03:39.780 where we joined forces last time when we all cruised up to Red Deer.
00:03:44.400 We've got there that we're going to have a signing station at those three locations
00:03:47.820 from 9 till 10 on Saturday morning.
00:03:50.980 At 10 o'clock, we're all going to be on the phone together.
00:03:53.900 We're going to have a conference call, the three leaders.
00:03:57.020 We're going to be on the phone together, and we're going to drop the hammer.
00:03:59.040 we're going to blow the horn at 10 o'clock we all saddle up and roll out so rolling at 10 o'clock
00:04:03.920 and all you need is a car walking would be rather labor laborious i think if you went on you went on
00:04:10.000 this thing but you need a car so if you got a car grab a friend hop in the car and you want to
00:04:13.920 basically get a long um convoy of vehicles heading in each direction right that's right the more cars
00:04:20.560 each team have the better their chances because like i said you have to stay at each location you
00:04:25.120 have to have somebody at the signing station for one hour in each town okay okay go to the state
00:04:30.080 free or the statefreealberta.com uh site where it says where can i sign the top three listings
00:04:36.080 you'll see that it's the 21 on 20 or the 21st on 21 road rally listings you'll see where we're
00:04:41.840 going to be and what times you're going to be there okay okay if your team has enough people
00:04:47.520 and enough canvassers enough cars you don't have to only be in that town you could be in all four
00:04:52.480 towns at once if you want as long as you're there for that one time slot there's a strategy here
00:04:57.280 there's a strategy to win yeah yeah and and you want to have your canvassers ready you do not want
00:05:04.960 to leave one canvasser alone so have your canvassers ready in one car they set up when you
00:05:10.800 get there and the rest of the crew wrangles up signatures what i'll do is i'll put i'll put all
