00:00:00.160 Hold on to your hats, my Canadian and Albertan friends.
00:00:05.360 It's going to be a bumpy ride.
00:00:10.340 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel for 18 a.m. Saturday, October the 3rd.
00:00:15.380 I hope you're having a great Saturday, a great start to your weekend as well.
00:00:19.000 Thank you so much for being here today.
00:00:20.620 And this is a message to my friends, my family who live in Canada,
00:00:24.360 as much as it is a message to my friends and family here in my country of Alberta.
00:00:30.960 And I want to talk to the people in Canada to start this off.
00:00:34.400 There's a message for you here today.
00:00:37.360 There's a message for my Albertan friends here today.
00:00:39.960 And it's pretty grim.
00:00:41.540 But there's an opportunity for people in Alberta.
00:00:43.780 I have no doubt the people in Canada watching this, many of you, wish you could vote your way out of this thing.
00:00:49.240 Alberta has a chance to vote its way out of this thing.
00:00:53.100 And we can't blow this opportunity, ladies and gentlemen.
00:00:55.620 But it's pretty grim in Canada.
00:00:57.820 Now, I just want to say this to you.
00:00:59.200 No disrespect to your country. All right. No disrespect to your country. I have no ill will
00:01:06.080 against Canada. And I'm not supposed to say this, but I do not like Canada. John, don't say that.
00:01:13.500 You're not supposed to say that. I don't like Canada. If I liked it, I'd want to stay.
00:01:18.900 There's nothing wrong with saying that. That's why I want an independent Alberta. So let's talk
00:01:23.760 about what's going on right now. The other day, you know, I did a live stream in my car the other
00:01:28.300 day. And I don't do that. Like I said in my live stream, if you didn't see it, I used to be a radio
00:01:32.740 announcer. I used to get up at three o'clock every morning, go to the radio station and do a show for
00:01:38.020 three hours or four hours, depending on what radio station I was on. I don't like going live. Why?
00:01:43.280 Because it seems too much like work. So I get in my car the other day to talk about this new pipeline
00:01:49.800 that Carney and Danielle Smith announced from Fort McMurray the other day. And it's nothing.
00:01:55.540 it. So it gets a nothing burger. It's an announcement about an announcement about an
00:02:02.100 announcement about an announcement. Stay with me here, folks. So here's the article that's
00:02:06.120 running today, folks. See, people are starting to catch on. You've caught on. That's why
00:02:12.140 you're watching this video. Kearney pipeline boosting hasn't yet convinced investors that
00:02:17.220 Canada has changed. To this point, a private sector has been virtually absent from both
00:02:23.320 the Pacific Link and the Link Pathways Alliance Carbon Capture Plan. So the Pacific Link is the
00:02:28.740 new fancy name for this so-called, maybe perhaps, pipeline. Pathways Alliance is carbon capture,
00:02:34.040 as it says there. So what they do is they bury the carbon under the ground, which raises the
00:02:38.200 price of Alberta oil by $5 to $15 for every barrel. Now, let me ask you a question. It's a rhetorical
00:02:44.120 question. You don't have to answer it. If you had to buy millions of barrels of oil, who would you
00:02:49.900 buy it from? The one that's selling it for $15 more per barrel? Of course not. That's why nobody
00:02:55.900 wants to invest. In fact, I've had a chance to speak to some very high level executives in the
00:03:01.000 oil and gas industry. They want nothing to do with this. So you're on the hook for this pipeline.
00:03:05.820 So this is the latest here. So the other day, the other day in my car,
00:03:11.800 I was just pontificating off the top of my head. So it was a nine o'clock in the morning. I'm
00:03:17.780 sitting in my car here in southern Alberta, southeast of Calgary, out in the middle of this
00:03:22.620 beautiful prairie land where I did the video with Tanya Clemens the other day, and I said this.
00:03:29.000 At nine o'clock today, mountain time, here in Alberta, from Fort Saskatchewan, I think is where
00:03:34.040 they were today, there was an announcement made about a possible, perhaps maybe pipeline, an
00:03:38.040 announcement on an announcement. By nine o'clock tomorrow, the Indigenous groups in BC will walk
00:03:42.320 out and say, we haven't agreed to this. You can see it coming. Now, would you expect to happen 0.58
00:03:50.660 next? So about 24 hours later, you get this story. This is from yesterday. About 24 hours after I
00:03:57.400 said that. Separatist environment and some First Nations groups speak out against New Alberta,
00:04:03.000 DC pipeline. Am I brilliant? Am I clairvoyant? Or am I just reading the tea leaves? You saw this 0.93
00:04:10.660 coming. I saw this coming. This is not a cakewalk. This is not a gimme, BC Grand Chief Stuart Phillips
00:04:17.280 said of the planned Pacific Link Pipeline. There's just a little bit more of this story. In a
00:04:22.920 statement posted Thursday, about 24 hours after I'm sitting in my car, in a statement posted
00:04:28.900 Thursday, Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation called the announcement a foregone conclusion and challenged
00:04:34.720 that any meaningful consultation could or would happen.
00:04:38.400 This is treaty land, and that free, prior, and informed consent is not achieved through
00:04:43.740 loan guarantees or conditions.
00:04:45.940 We are governments and nations, not investors or stakeholders at Reed.
00:04:49.600 So there you go, folks, less than 24 hours later.
00:04:52.440 Now, you're saying, John, this is about a pipeline from Alberta.
00:04:55.380 Folks, this is a Canadian pipeline.
00:04:57.040 You're on the hook for this.
00:05:00.600 $35 to $43 billion, and I have no doubt.
00:05:04.000 you need to understand what's going on here. What's at stake here? What is going on in Alberta
00:05:08.640 is the most significant thing that's ever happened in this country. This is bigger than federal
00:05:15.080 elections. There's trillions, trillions of dollars at stake. People like Mark Carney,
00:05:22.000 the Liberal Party, and the establishment, and the elites in Ottawa will try to keep us here,
00:05:27.080 and they'll do anything to stop us. I haven't seen the personal attacks yet, but we still got
00:05:33.320 almost three weeks to go. And they might be coming after me. God knows. They'll do anything. I have
00:05:39.220 no doubt that Danielle Smith and Carney will walk out just prior to the referendum on October 19th
00:05:44.700 and say, we found an investor. They'll get anybody to say that. And I wouldn't believe them
00:05:50.100 because they'll do anything to stop us. But folks, you need to understand if you live in Canada,
00:05:55.820 you won't be able to vote your way out of this. It's pretty bleak. And that's coming up in just
00:06:00.980 a moment. So this was tweeted out. Now we've got all the politicians coming out, ladies and
00:06:05.780 gentlemen, to stop us. This article's being thrown all over social media right now. Jason Kenney
00:06:11.480 tweeted this out. Must read column from one of modern Canada's greatest prime ministers,
00:06:16.160 Stephen Harper. Separatism poses significant risk for Alberta. This is the guy that's standing with
00:06:21.040 Mark Carney a couple of weeks ago, kissing his ass because they're all the same folks. 0.99
00:06:25.180 Do you see my tweet at the bottom? This is known as a pithy comment. Stephen Harper lost to Justin 0.99
00:06:32.320 Trudeau. Enough said. I've updated my poster. I've added Harper to this. These people are all the
00:06:39.920 same. These people are trying to enrich themselves on your back. That's what these people do. They're
00:06:46.560 the establishment. They're all the same. They're unfair. They disregard Western Canada. They're
00:06:52.700 the status quo, vote option two, send these a message, ladies and gentlemen. We need to go
00:06:59.760 after these people because these people are going to do anything to keep Alberta in Canada.
00:07:04.560 Now, as far as the rest of you people in Canada, things are not looking good for you right now.
00:07:10.280 And this is a message to you. Here's an article right here that's running today. Now, you need
00:07:15.960 to think about this. Stephen Harper lost to Justin Trudeau. Trudeau sucks. An absolute
00:07:22.060 blithering idiot who dresses up in blackface was prime minister of this country for 10 years. At 1.00
00:07:28.260 least Carney has a hint of respectability, even though you don't have to respect him.
00:07:34.860 How long is he going to be around? This article is running today.
00:07:39.400 Conservatives have work to do to unseat Carney. This guy could be around for a very long time.
00:07:45.960 time. Conservatives in Canada, you wish you could be in a place like Alberta right now to vote your
00:07:51.640 way out. Now, I saw this. Here it is right here. And I said this, this is the end of this video.
00:08:00.800 You can vote Alberta out of this nuthouse, folks. Sox was PM for 10 years. Now we have slick, 0.85
00:08:07.840 elitist, globalist, Chairman Mark running the country into the ground. How long will he be
00:08:14.000 around while the impotent conservatives shoot blanks. Vote option two. To my friends in Canada,
00:08:20.680 I feel sorry for you. And you got Pierre Polyev running your party?
00:08:29.540 He blew the biggest lead in history. He's out here campaigning. He says he's an Albertan. He's
00:08:34.180 lived in Ottawa for 20 years. Out here campaigning against the independence movement. He's just
00:08:38.280 trying to save his job. Because if Alberta leaves, the Conservatives will never be in power in Canada
00:08:44.960 ever again. They've got 33, 34 seats out here. I don't dislike Canada. Well, no, I don't like
00:08:56.700 Canada. I don't dislike the people there. I have family and friends there. I feel for you. I really
00:09:01.340 do. Thanks for watching this video. If you liked it, give it a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel.
00:09:05.400 ring the bell for notifications. Have a great weekend. I'll see you in the next one.
