John Bolton - Danielle Smith slaughters CLUELESS national news broadcaster

00:00:00.320 uh you know healthcare transfers how does your system work without them like they're

00:00:03.840 you know is it responsible to to leave that door open in any way how does that woman have a job 1.00

00:00:10.240 on a national news broadcast good morning it's john welcome to the channel great to have you

00:00:16.560 along today 4 37 a.m i've been up since 2 getting these clips together today it's may the 9th i've

00:00:24.080 got my big blue mug of coffee and yeah this this is going to be maybe a little controversial but i

00:00:29.600 don't care uh vashi capellas this interview with daniel smith is a frigging train wreck 0.61

00:00:37.200 totally unprepared i just don't get it i saw clips of this yesterday and i just shook my head in

00:00:43.040 disbelief that she is so freaking clueless she even says in this interview she's lived in alberta for

00:00:48.320 five years and she doesn't understand anything that's going on i don't even think she watched

00:00:52.400 daniel smith's speech the other day because a lot of the answers to what she asked here were in her

00:00:58.880 speech she should know better now you're going to say john who are you to critique this woman 0.64

00:01:03.920 who's worked her way up to the top of news broadcasting at ctv in canada well i used to do

00:01:09.840 this for a job for 35 years i did it all i did i was a disc jockey i was a news person i was a sports

00:01:18.240 broadcaster i did it all i had my own radio program where i spoke to musicians i spoke to astronauts i spoke

00:01:25.760 to politicians dalton mcginty stephen harper jack layton elizabeth may justin trudeau there's an

00:01:32.560 interview with trudeau on my channel if you want to go back and watch it so i have a little bit of

00:01:37.040 experience here it just is it's disgraceful and here's the thing the things that capellas vashi

00:01:43.200 says get echoed on x but you don't hear the actual answer one of which popped up this morning how

00:01:49.600 can alberta be so ungrateful to the rest of canada oil production is up

00:01:57.200 how how dare you want to leave the country didn't listen to daniel smith's answer i'm going to play

00:02:01.760 that for you so this interview is about 14 minutes long i think she's i was she was awful in this

00:02:08.080 and she seems condescending at times which is ridiculous watch the whole thing i'll put a link

00:02:12.560 in the description give them some hits so she talks a little bit about dealing with carny so she's so

00:02:20.480 daniel smith is asked about that they talk about how daniel smith explains it this way albertans are

00:02:25.360 fearful of canada like canada is fearful of the united states interesting way of putting it she says

00:02:30.720 the citizens initial initiative will allow citizens to have a voice in our province which could include

00:02:36.720 separation and then she's asked about pursuing separation if there is a yes vote here so this

00:02:43.440 is what vashe says to danielle smith she's asked a couple of times and then that she gets her breaking

00:02:48.880 news it pops up along the bottom she asks her would you allow separation if there is a yes vote and this

00:02:55.200 is what danielle smith had to say just to be clear to canadians who are watching in alberta and outside

00:03:00.080 alberta if you're either the citizens of your province vote to separate are you going to pursue that

00:03:06.560 what i have said is that i will respect the outcome of citizen initiated referenda and that's why it's

00:03:11.760 my job to make sure it doesn't get to that point i want i want canada to be strong and united and for

00:03:16.640 provincial jurisdiction to be respected and that's what i'll be working towards you see vashi there's

00:03:21.520 this thing called the clarity act you might want to read it sometime it's not up to the premier to

00:03:26.480 decide whether she will allow a separation if there is a vote for separation in alberta the clarity act

00:03:33.760 kind of lays out the ground rules basically you need a clear question and a clear majority

00:03:39.600 unfortunately the federal government has far too much control in this situation but the clarity act

00:03:44.480 does exist and you have to understand if this happens the federal government provincial governments

00:03:50.160 and native groups aboriginal groups have to by law negotiate with the province that chooses to

00:03:56.400 separate then she goes on and this is the thing that really blew me away was she asks about social

00:04:02.000 services and health care and you know basically says don't you think you should be more open with

00:04:07.200 albertans what's going to happen if you leave and now just keep in mind i have edited this into two

00:04:14.400 little clips i haven't taken out any of the context feel free to watch the video judge for yourself link

00:04:20.080 in the description but shouldn't you be honest with them about what it would mean if they were to vote yes

00:04:25.280 and now that you've opened the door to following their instruction what that would mean for their for

00:04:29.520 their social services for their health care for a whole host of things i didn't include the premier's

00:04:33.840 answer because basically it is and not in these words vashi you're getting ahead of your skis here

00:04:39.280 it hasn't happened yet and that was her answer but you've seen this map on the screen have you not

00:04:44.400 a hundred times i have alberta sends so much money out east if we could keep it

00:04:51.280 that would be great we're running a five billion dollar deficit in alberta this year and we still

00:04:55.280 have to ship money out to big provinces out east most of it goes to quebec

00:04:59.840 and it's like vashi didn't even watch danielle smith's speech the other day it was near the

00:05:06.320 beginning when daniel smith had this to say our provinces contributed hundreds of billions of

00:05:13.440 dollars more to the federal treasury for use in other parts of the country than will ever

00:05:18.160 receive back in benefits just imagine how great things would be if we could just keep our money here

00:05:24.080 in alberta instead of shipping it off to ungrateful canada and quebec that doesn't want our pipelines 0.98

00:05:29.680 and here's a little bit of a tidbit for you canada spends over a billion dollars a week servicing our

00:05:36.160 debt which is more than is spent on health care for the whole country

00:05:42.320 that's what government and the government of canada has done so up next vashi clueless as can be

00:05:48.720 starts going on about how can you be so ungrateful how can you be so upset at the federal government

00:05:54.960 oil production is up and danielle smith has to straighten her out on that one as well 1.00

00:06:00.640 from march 2025 to march 2024 alberta produced 20.6 million cubic meters of oil 3.6 percent higher

00:06:08.080 year over year the regulator's website in 2023 the most recent finding they could produce said crude oil

00:06:13.920 production continued to rise in that year reaching an eight-year high how is that evidence of destructive

00:06:20.640 policy well i can tell you that we've had at least 175 billion dollars worth of projects that have

00:06:26.720 been cancelled be because of the actions of the federal government some some direct like their

00:06:31.680 direct cancellation of northern gateway which had been fully permitted some because of interference

00:06:36.160 like energy east which couldn't see the way through their new process to a completion same with

00:06:42.000 tex frontier mine and it's been case after case after case of the federal government creating

00:06:46.880 uncertainty imagine where we would be if we had all of those lng projects that have been proposed and

00:06:52.720 all of those energy projects that have been proposed constructed over the past 10 years now we actually

00:06:57.840 would have access to international markets we really would be able to be less reliant on a single customer

00:07:04.160 imagine vashi if alberta could have had 175 billion dollars of investment over the last 10 years that's

00:07:11.440 been lost because of the liberal government the question you need to be asking if alberta leaves

00:07:16.720 how is canada going to survive without us and here's the other thing you need to understand if you

00:07:22.400 watched her speech the other day she laid it out quite clearly that your country of canada has lost

00:07:28.080 out in a big way as well listen to this this onslaught of anti-energy anti-agriculture and anti-resource

00:07:35.600 development policies have scared away global investments to the tune of a half a trillion dollars

00:07:41.600 driving those investments and jobs out of alberta and canada to much more attractive investment

00:07:46.880 climates in the united states asia and the middle east so it's been pretty embarrassing all the way

00:07:52.960 through this interview and then vashi brings out this one and this is the kind of stuff and the kind

00:07:58.800 of nonsense that she and other people who work in media in canada spread around and i see it on x all

00:08:04.880 the time alberta you're a bunch of ungrateful traders canada bought you a pipeline watch they

00:08:12.000 did build tmx with 34 billion dollars of taxpayer money from across the country which does greatly

00:08:17.360 benefit your province so again like is it fair to frame it as everything they've done has hurt alberta

00:08:22.080 when production is up and there is a pipeline to tidewater that a trans mountain pipeline could have

00:08:27.200 been built for a fraction of the cost if it had been in the private sector i don't think it's a victory

00:08:31.920 that um that taxpayers had to fork over five times the amount because the federal government had

00:08:36.880 created so much uncertainty that was the only way to get it built i'm glad it's built but you know

00:08:40.880 what we could get a whole lot more built if they would just create the kind of an investment

00:08:45.040 environment that would attract those private sector dollars a great answer from the premier keith

00:08:50.080 wilson the lawyer you've probably seen him a number of times he talks about the separatist movement

00:08:54.560 here in alberta he puts it quite bluntly tmx should have cost taxpayers zero dollars but because of

00:09:00.800 incompetence of the liberal party cost overrun after cost overrun it's now what at 34 billion

00:09:07.520 of your money and think ahead here folks this is mark carney's housing program this is what's going

00:09:12.640 to happen with it it won't solve the housing crisis it's going to cost you way too much money

00:09:17.360 and mark carney and his friends are going to get rich on your tax dollars just think about that

00:09:21.760 an absolute slaughter of ashley capellis by danielle smith master class by her she's the best at this 0.98

00:09:28.400 i have ever seen but vashi capellis how the hell is she heading up a national news program i just 0.87

00:09:36.320 don't get it she's seeing totally unprepared just so bad thanks a lot for watching i hope you like the
