00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 541 AM. It is Friday, May the 1st. Hope you're having a
00:00:08.720 great start to your Friday with the big blue mug of coffee, which I tip to you today. Pleasure to
00:00:14.800 have you here. And no doubt you are aware of what Donald Trump has done with his pen. Something good
00:00:22.640 for my country here in Alberta. A lot of people talking about that, but no doubt you're here
00:00:27.940 because of the thumbnail I put up.
00:00:30.140 I'm going to read you the letter I wrote to President Trump in just a moment.
00:00:33.900 But I want to take you back.
00:00:35.540 I want to take you back to a little over a year ago
00:00:38.280 when this channel was in its infancy.
00:00:40.320 I put a video up.
00:00:41.620 Hasn't been seen by a lot of people, 4,000 or 5,000 people, I think.
00:00:44.960 Trump, Canada's greatest economic ally.
00:00:47.760 And at that point, Donald Trump was talking about Canada becoming the 51st state.
00:00:52.580 I think he first floated that out to Justin Trudeau
00:00:55.680 when Trudeau visited Mar-a-Lago early December, I think it was, of 2024. I think I've got a picture
00:01:02.140 of that. I'll put it up on the screen. So Trump was talking about Canada becoming the 51st state
00:01:08.260 and it woke people up. Oh my God, look what Donald Trump is doing. He wants to make Canada
00:01:14.380 the 51st state. Now, there are still elbows up people who think that Donald Trump wants to do
00:01:20.160 that. But the country got woken from its slumber. Look how bad Canada has become. 10 years of liberal
00:01:29.000 rule under Trudeau. We've got to do something because Trump is going to take us over if we
00:01:34.020 don't act now. Unfortunately, Mark Carney and the Liberal Party have dithered and pissed away
00:01:41.640 any opportunity. And Donald Trump has done more for Alberta in the last 24 hours than Carney has
00:01:48.880 done in the last year. This is what happened in the White House, and he did this with his pen.
00:01:54.600 Okay, let's go. This is a presidential permit authorizing the Bridger Pipeline, sir. This is
00:02:00.300 a transporter pipeline similar to the old Keystone XL pipeline. It will significantly expand our
00:02:06.140 ability to move oil around North America, oil and gas around North America. It's a huge deal
00:02:11.900 in terms of long-term energy dominance and energy security. Slightly different than the last
00:02:16.700 administration. They wouldn't sign a pipeline deal. We have pipelines going up. And by the way,
00:02:23.820 they're way underground. They're not a problem. Nobody even knows they're there. It's so crazy,
00:02:28.700 but they wouldn't approve anything having to do with the pipeline. And they're great
00:02:33.180 as opposed to trucking it or training it. It was they're great.
00:02:38.620 This is going to drive people crazy who hate Donald Trump. But Mr. President, thank you.
00:02:44.380 from the bottom of my heart and from the bottom of tens of thousands of Albertans' hearts as well.
00:02:52.300 Thank you, Mr. President. Mark Carney, what has he done? Nothing. Mr. Do-Nothing Carney. We get
00:03:00.300 memorandums of understanding for a perhaps, maybe, possibly a pipeline in the future. If Mark Carney
00:03:06.960 and the Liberal Party in Ottawa, in the East, that rules over us here in Alberta, wanted us to have
00:03:13.300 a pipeline. He would have got rid of the rules and the regulations and the laws like the pipeline
00:03:18.360 ban and the tanker ban, and we'd have a pipeline, but he does not want that to happen. And now
00:03:23.580 Donald Trump has showed up Mark Carney once again. So what did I do? I wrote a letter to
00:03:29.640 the president, and this is what I wrote this morning. This is what I wrote to the president
00:03:36.400 of the United States at the White House website. Mr. President, I run a YouTube channel in Alberta
00:03:43.720 where I discuss politics and Alberta independence. This morning, I woke up to news that you signed
00:03:49.660 a permit for a cross-border pipeline project that would move Alberta oil through the United States.
00:03:55.880 For this, I want to say thank you. Albertans are hard-working people who want what is best
00:04:02.020 for our province. And as you know, it has been difficult for us to get our resources to market
00:04:07.160 over the last decade. I don't speak for all Albertans, but I know many of us appreciate
00:04:12.520 your efforts. I would also like to ask if I could speak with you for a few minutes on my YouTube
00:04:17.500 channel so I can thank you. I know you are busy, but it never hurts to ask. And I signed it.
00:04:23.800 Thank you, John R. Bolton. I know, same name as that other guy, Calgary, Alberta. And I'm going
00:04:30.920 to send it to him right now. And boy, is that going to piss people off. But folks, you need
00:04:47.960 to understand your government is failing you. And I'm afraid you're not going to wake up until
00:04:53.900 it's too late. Donald Trump is Alberta's greatest economic ally right now as we're going to be
00:05:01.240 pumping our oil south of the border and we can't get it east and west. I'll let you know what
00:05:06.840 happens. I'll probably get back a polite letter saying thank you John for your letter but wouldn't
00:05:12.140 it be something if I got to talk to President Trump to thank him on this channel. Thank you
00:05:19.240 very much for watching. I'll let you know what happens. If you like the video give it a thumbs
00:05:23.220 up, subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I will see you in the next one.
