00:00:00.080 This video is likely going to make you mad.
00:00:03.060 It will show you how such a small group of people can have such a large detrimental effect on your life.
00:00:12.680 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel.
00:00:14.940 It is 5 a.m. Sunday, June the 21st.
00:00:18.060 I hope you're having a great start to your Sunday, a great Father's Day, and a great first full day of summer.
00:00:24.880 I do have the big blue mug of coffee.
00:00:26.840 Thanks for being here.
00:00:28.000 And for the people I met in Sundry yesterday, which was fantastic, they asked me, do you actually have coffee in the big blue mug?
00:00:36.020 And yes, I do. There's coffee in there. Let me show you.
00:00:38.040 I don't want to spill it in my lap. Getting a little low.
00:00:40.460 I'm going to have to fill up again, but there is coffee in there.
00:00:43.680 Now, I don't want to spend a lot of time getting to the meat and potatoes of this video today.
00:00:48.820 And it's the part I talked about before you saw the coffee mug at the beginning here.
00:00:53.520 How such a small group of people can have such a detrimental effect on your life.
00:00:57.160 I'm going to get to that, but I have to kind of lead up to it a little bit.
00:01:00.220 Why am I talking about this today?
00:01:02.480 A little different way of going about things here on this channel, I think, sometimes.
00:01:06.120 But this article inspired me to talk about this today.
00:01:08.880 This is a glowing article about what's known as CCUS.
00:01:12.300 For those of you who don't live in Alberta, we're very aware of what this is.
00:01:16.360 It's carbon capture, utilization, and storage.
00:01:19.520 It's carbon sequestration to take carbon dioxide out of the air and bury it in the ground.
00:01:25.180 and it was part of the deal that Mark Carney on the right here signed with Premier Daniel Smith
00:01:30.300 on the left. Here they are grinning about the Memorandum of Understanding and it says Canada
00:01:35.760 still needs the pathway. Glowing article here about carbon sequestration and burying carbon
00:01:40.980 underground. One of the conditions for us to get a pipeline. Another one was an industrial carbon tax
00:01:46.560 and there were other things as well. Now this video is about how that is never going to happen.
00:01:51.480 We're never going to get a pipeline, and that's the meat and potatoes of this story.
00:01:57.320 Now, what does this machine actually look like?
00:01:59.880 Some of you may have seen this before.
00:02:01.580 This is the actual machine they're going to build in northern Alberta sometime soon.
00:02:06.900 Here it is right here, and I'm going to take my face out of there.
00:02:11.640 The actual currency in this picture should be Canadian dollars.
00:02:15.620 As a matter of fact, it should be bills that say your money on it,
00:02:18.440 as Mark Carney and the liberals feel good about changing the weather by burying your money
00:02:23.860 underground. That's what this machine will accomplish. By the way, that's not actually
00:02:28.320 the machine. I just made that up. Okay. But this is an actual and accurate depiction of what this
00:02:34.900 machine will accomplish right here. Okay. I've used these pictures before, but I have to keep
00:02:40.420 going back to them because I think they're rather fun. So there's more and more backlash regarding
00:02:45.900 carbon sequestration. I'm going to get to the meat and potatoes in just a moment. Not very long,
00:02:50.200 okay? Because we're talking about building pipelines and doing all this carbon capture,
00:02:56.140 carbon sequestration, whatever you want to call it, industrial carbon taxes, just to get a pipeline
00:03:01.380 in Alberta. Now, there's an article right here from iPolitics. This just from May 5th of this
00:03:06.880 year. Feds stand firm as oil sands producers ramp up resistance to carbon policy. The Oil Sands
00:03:13.140 Alliance that were supposed to build what's called the Pathways Project, which is interesting.
00:03:18.360 The National Post story said pathway in it. But anyway, the Oil Sands Alliance is the latest
00:03:23.740 industry voice to warn the federal government about the impacts of an uncompetitive carbon
00:03:29.440 price. Industrial carbon pricing, as we've said here before, will raise the price of a barrel of
00:03:34.360 oil from Alberta, probably $10 to $15. You've got the former person who was all about carbon
00:03:40.480 sequestration. Martha Hall Finley is calling for it to be shelved right now. And it does go down
00:03:45.760 here to say about the Oil Sands Alliance. They put out a statement Monday undermining the case
00:03:50.960 for carbon pricing and complicating the future of Pathways. They do not want to fund this. And
00:03:56.700 again, it's $20 billion to God knows how much just to build this stupid machine. Okay. Now, 1.00
00:04:04.240 meanwhile, we're going to hear from Premier Daniel Smith probably within the next 10 days.
00:04:08.220 we can go over to this article right here. Smith promises proposed pipeline to BC Coast
00:04:13.960 will be sent to major projects office by Canada Day. This is an article from just earlier this
00:04:19.880 month. She promises this is going to happen. And as I've said to people in the independence
00:04:25.080 movement, the leaders, we need to get ahead of this because instead of getting shovels in the
00:04:29.520 ground, Premier Smith is going to be shoveling something else if you get my drift. Now, why
00:04:35.180 is this pipeline never going to happen? Now, God forbid, I'm playing this clip again for you. I'm
00:04:41.060 going to play it again, but I'm going to get to the real meat and potatoes of this story in just
00:04:45.140 a moment that will have you seething. Why will we not get a pipeline built? Mark Kearney.
00:04:52.920 We will not impose a project on a province. We need consensus behind these projects,
00:05:00.660 and we need the participation of Indigenous people.
00:05:03.980 I'm sorry to have to play that again.
00:05:05.940 I've likely played that 25 times on this channel,
00:05:08.920 but this effectively gives British Columbia,
00:05:11.020 the province of British Columbia
00:05:12.300 and Indigenous groups in British Columbia
00:05:14.480 a veto over our oil pipeline.
00:05:17.820 And people are going to say they don't get a veto.
00:05:20.780 Well, that's the way it's supposed to work,
00:05:22.740 but that's not the way it actually works
00:05:24.860 because we've got the goods here.
00:05:26.280 And here's a number of stories that have come out.
00:05:28.040 this one right here, just from a couple of days ago, that will make you mad. How such a small
00:05:33.660 group of people, and I'm talking small group of people in this story, it can have such a
00:05:38.600 detrimental effect on the economy of Alberta and of Canada as well, and an effect on your life.
00:05:45.180 Jamie Sarkinak, yet another major project derailed over Indigenous spat. Let me read a bit of this
00:05:50.540 for you. This will blow you away. Earlier this month, the BC court decided to cancel the official
00:05:56.320 go ahead to construct a gold mine in the north of the province because a few dozen Indigenous
00:06:01.540 people weren't, in its view, adequately consulted. It didn't matter that the project Seabridge
00:06:08.800 Gold Kerr Sulphuretz Mitchell KSM Mine, that's a mouthful, had already undergone 15 years of
00:06:17.060 planning and consultations. It didn't matter that $1.2 billion had already been spent on building
00:06:24.280 early components of the mine, like camps, roads, and fish habitat, didn't matter that it had the
00:06:30.400 support of two major indigenous groups whose members would reap jobs, contracts, training,
00:06:35.420 and development support through benefit agreements with the company. It didn't matter that the mine
00:06:40.400 had been put in the province's fast-track list or that it was expected to bring billions of dollars
00:06:46.240 and much-needed revenue. What actually mattered, now here's the real meat and potatoes, folks,
00:06:50.900 What actually mattered to B.C. Supreme Court Justice Emily Burke was the right of a tiny group calling itself a First Nation to provide even more input on the mine than it already had.
00:07:03.620 the Set-Sot-Ski-Kim-The-Bop-Bop-A-Loo-Bop-A-Wop-Bam-Boo tribe, comprised of only 58 known members,
00:07:15.580 according to the court, had projected an Aboriginal title claim onto the area. The group is not
00:07:21.680 recognized in federal law and thus not technically a real First Nation. Nevertheless, it argued that
00:07:28.320 the province hadn't adequately evaluated its claim, tainting any further approvals of the mine.
00:07:35.620 Do you really think we're going to get a pipeline from Alberta out to the British Columbia coast
00:07:40.580 when people like this are going to stand in the way? Now, here's another thing. We've got
00:07:48.080 Indigenous groups in BC stopping projects and getting in the way. Here's an article right here.
00:07:53.700 This was in April, BC Judge Grant's US-based indigenous group, a role in legal fight over
00:08:00.080 Kootenai mine. And folks, that's not the only one. This one here, Alaskan tribes sue BC government
00:08:07.400 over mines in the far Northwest. So not only are Canadian indigenous groups getting in the way of
00:08:12.960 projects, American ones are as well. Here's what I see happening. Danielle Smith announces
00:08:19.380 that there's going to be a pipeline from Alberta to the BC coast and everyone rejoices
00:08:26.120 and it'll likely be announced just before the referendum in October.
00:08:31.060 And here's what's going to happen. They'll never get a shovel in the ground or if they ever do,
00:08:36.900 there will be somebody and it will be an Indigenous person standing in front of that
00:08:41.160 pipeline blocking it and it will never go through because there wouldn't be a single RCMP officer,
00:08:48.280 police officer, or military officer would ever remove an indigenous person from any land in
00:08:55.560 this country. That's why this will never happen. There's this article here as well. Let me get to
00:08:59.960 this. The BC law that can stop Carney's nation building projects. Let me bring myself on screen.
00:09:07.240 I mean, this is from April. Okay. Oh, so here we go. In British Columbia, the NDP government led
00:09:13.520 by Premier David Eby is paralyzed by its own policies. Unable to reverse its decision to
00:09:19.640 embed the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People, UNDRIP,
00:09:24.760 interprovincial law, the province has effectively handed First Nations a veto over development on
00:09:30.220 any claimed territory. Quote, you have a First Nations advocacy organization co-governing a
00:09:37.260 province, unquote, says retired aboriginal law expert Jeffrey Moyes. We saw it pretty clearly
00:09:43.900 yesterday when the First Nations Leadership Council told Eby what was going to happen.
00:09:48.500 They told him he couldn't legislate, couldn't change legislation without their consent.
00:09:55.520 So we go back to Mark Carney once again. Who does he give a veto to? And we need the
00:10:00.680 participation of Indigenous peoples. I think eventually Premier David Eby of British Columbia
00:10:05.640 We'll get on board with a pipeline if one is announced, but there's a lot of indigenous groups between the Alberta border and the B.C. coast.
00:10:13.860 Thanks for watching. If you like this video, give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications.
00:10:19.640 I'll see you in the next one.
00:10:22.140 To make very clear that there's absolutely no support for pipelines to the northwest coast or oil tankers in the waters around Haida Gwaii.
