00:00:00.000 I want to be perfectly clear as you watch this video that it is satire,
00:00:05.420 but that doesn't mean it's not going to happen.
00:00:12.080 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is 6 16 a.m. Wednesday, September the 16th.
00:00:17.720 Hope you're having a great day today. I do have my big blue mug of coffee. I appreciate you being
00:00:21.820 here today. And if you are a subscriber and you're watching this right now, you are part of a world
00:00:27.200 exclusive right here on this channel. As you know, Premier Danielle Smith of Alberta and the
00:00:33.360 Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney, meeting to discuss the future of Alberta when it comes to
00:00:39.000 major projects, and that would be pipelines. You may recall that the Premier gave the government
00:00:45.000 of Canada, regardless of the party that won on April 28th, six months to get rid of regulation
00:00:51.120 that were standing in the way of Alberta's prosperity. And within the next week, that six
00:00:56.520 months will be up. Well, we have it on good authority that Mark Carney, through his major
00:01:02.100 projects office in Calgary, has just approved the Northern Gateway pipeline. As you remember,
00:01:08.860 Northern Gateway was blocked after years of opposition from Indigenous nations, environmental
00:01:14.280 groups, and some provinces. In 2016, the federal government officially rejected it, citing risks to
00:01:20.200 the environment and Indigenous rights, particularly threats to B.C.'s coast, and lack of consent from
00:01:25.440 affected First Nations. So, great news today. Northern... One moment. We're just getting news that 0.62
00:01:32.260 Premier David Eby, the left-wing Premier of British Columbia, is now saying there will be no Northern
00:01:39.740 Gateway pipeline. When asked his reason why, he had a two-word answer. No consensus, is what he said.
00:01:48.020 We also hear that this group here has said that they do not want a pipeline going through British
00:01:52.600 Columbia. So, there will be no Northern Gateway pipeline. But we do have it on good authority that
00:01:58.300 Mark Carney, the Prime Minister of the country, through his major projects office in Calgary, has
00:02:03.060 just approved the Energy East pipeline. As you recall, Energy East was cancelled in 2017, after strong
00:02:10.760 opposition from environmental groups, Indigenous communities, and several provinces over climate,
00:02:15.580 safety, and water concerns. So, good news that Energy... One moment. We have news coming in that the Premier
00:02:23.880 of Manitoba, Wab Canu, is saying there will be no pipeline going through his province. When asked why, he had
00:02:30.660 a two-word answer, and it was no consensus. We're also getting word that Francois Legault, the Premier of Quebec,
00:02:38.080 has said the same thing. Obviously, he's saying it in French. This group of people said they don't want the
00:02:44.180 pipeline going through either. We've had no word from Doug Ford, the Premier of Ontario. He wasn't able
00:02:50.500 for comment. He had other commitments.
00:02:55.420 Prime Minister Mark Carney, an anti-oil, net-zero proponent, has provided himself an easy out by
00:03:01.920 allowing vetoes for provinces and Aboriginal groups of any major Alberta projects. As he has stated many
00:03:08.560 times... We will not impose a project on a province. We need consensus behind these projects,
00:03:16.960 and we need the participation of Indigenous peoples. We will only do that in the case where we have the 1.00
00:03:23.000 support of First Nations. We have the support of all the provinces coming together with consensus.
00:03:30.220 No word from Premier Danielle Smith on these latest developments,
00:03:34.060 but we've just had a response from some Alberta independence groups who say they are preparing
00:03:39.580 for an all-out push to have their province leave a country that wants their riches but denies them
00:03:45.900 prosperity. Thank you very much for watching this video. If you liked it, please give it a thumbs up,
00:03:50.840 subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'll see you in the next one,
00:03:56.340 and I know this was satire, but it could come true.
