00:00:29.600
don't care uh vashi capellas this interview with daniel smith is a frigging train wreck
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
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
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
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
00:09:28.400
