00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel, 449 AM, Tuesday, February the 17th. I hope
00:00:08.860 you're having a great start to your Tuesday with the big blue mug of coffee. Calgary right
00:00:13.440 now getting snow. It's minus nine Celsius. It's been mild almost since the beginning
00:00:18.400 of the year. But, you know, just when you think you're out, it pulls you back in. And
00:00:23.100 I'm talking about winter. So we're getting a blast of winter right now. Hope you're getting
00:00:27.000 good weather wherever you may live. And I want to start off this video by saying I made
00:00:32.920 a mistake. I need to admit to that. And my mistake is this, that I got up this morning
00:00:37.520 and I went on X. I've said before, I don't spend a lot of time on social media. As a matter
00:00:43.080 of fact, I did in a video the other day, I said that the world would be a better place
00:00:47.360 without smartphones and social media. Somebody commented on that and said that then we'd
00:00:53.000 only have the mainstream media. And I responded, well, you know, there's a lot of misinformation
00:00:58.300 on the internet as well. So you have to keep that in mind. The great thing about the internet
00:01:03.160 is it has given a voice to people who never had one. The bad thing about the internet,
00:01:08.940 it has given the voice to people who have never had one. Okay. So it's a double-edged sword
00:01:13.640 here because there were a lot of lunatics online. I'm going to talk about that today.
00:01:17.380 I did a video. I think it was probably back in November. It's been several months where it was
00:01:23.300 called, I'm not supposed to say this. I'm going to expand on that to the next level in just a moment.
00:01:30.760 And here's what I had to say. Here's my controversial words for today. I've been told I should not say
00:01:38.040 this, but I don't like Canada anymore. I don't hate Canada. I have family and friends that live in
00:01:52.080 Canada, but I don't like Canada anymore. Is it wrong for me to think that or to say that?
00:01:58.420 If I liked Canada, I wouldn't want to leave it. So let me expand on that. You don't like Canada?
00:02:06.780 No. Like I said in that clip, I don't like Canada. If I did, I'd want to stay in Canada.
00:02:11.940 I like Canada like I like Norway. I'm sure Norwegians are fine people. It's a great country.
00:02:16.920 I don't want to live there. I want to live in my own country. People say, John, all you're going
00:02:21.140 to do is rile people up by saying you don't like Canada. Are you kidding me?
00:02:27.940 Here's how I'm expanding on what I said back in November. I don't like a lot of the people in
00:02:32.420 the country anymore. Now I know there's an echo chamber on X. There's an echo
00:02:36.700 chamber on social media. It's where people go to rant and rave, but these people are insane.
00:02:42.480 Do you hear what they're saying about us now? Did a video yesterday, people jumping out of cars,
00:02:46.380 screaming, attacking people for going through a democratic process.
00:02:52.080 You got people like this nut. This woman is insane. Look at the eyes on this woman,
00:02:58.400 Laura Babcock. Watch this video. Listen to what she says. We're a bunch of traitors here.
00:03:03.480 She hates us. Now that we have an active treason happening in Alberta, meeting with the regime
00:03:12.220 that would take our country and asking for $500 billion in a line of credit. This is not a joke.
00:03:19.420 This is serious AF. And Canadians are rightfully furious about not just the situation, but the
00:03:26.000 lack of courage of Pierre Polyev to denounce it, of him to get his security clearance to prove that he's
00:03:30.980 not part of it, of Danielle Smith to not be able to denounce it. Either you denounce the treason that
00:03:36.500 is happening with some of the leaders of the Alberta separatist movement, or you look as though
00:03:40.620 you're in line with them. And I don't think any Canadian is going to tolerate any more of this
00:03:45.200 crap. This woman not only hates people in the Alberta independence movement, she hates you if
00:03:50.520 you're a conservative. She hates you if you support Pierre Polyev. She hates you if you're not on Team
00:03:55.720 Kearney. She hates you if you're not on Team Canada. And there's millions of these people now
00:04:00.460 in this country. And they rant and rave about people who just want something better for themselves
00:04:05.980 and think things aren't going the way they should be in this country. Do you speak this woman's
00:04:10.980 language? I don't. It's becoming increasingly obvious that I don't speak the language of a lot
00:04:17.420 of people who live in the country known as Canada. And I'm going to go back to it again.
00:04:20.880 The polite, tolerant Canadians. Well, there it is right there, folks. Look at her eyes. She's nuts.
00:04:29.400 And you get people like this guy. I'm just going to go through a couple of this guy right here.
00:04:35.140 Ryan Soray. I'm going to play a little bit of his clip as he sits in a car with his filthy mouth.
00:04:42.620 Buddy, fucking Alberta separation? I can't believe I have to say this, but that is the stupidest
00:04:47.380 fucking shit in the entire world. Alberta separatists sound like a teenager trying to
00:04:52.160 declare themselves independent from the rest of the family, but while still living in the house.
00:04:57.260 I don't need you, dad. I'm leaving. You're still going to use dad's Wi-Fi and the bathroom,
00:05:03.160 borrow the car, but your bedroom is a separate and independent nation from the rest of the
00:05:08.020 fucking house? What are you fucking talking about? No, Ryan, we're not like the child you
00:05:12.160 described there, but I'll use a similar analogy. Alberta is like a child in an abusive household,
00:05:18.340 Canada. And we've finally decided it's time to get out. And if you do a bit of studying,
00:05:25.380 you might understand that if Alberta could keep the money it earns in Alberta, if we could get what's
00:05:30.720 under our feet out of the ground, we could be one of the richest countries on the planet.
00:05:35.380 And if you live in Alberta, that would benefit you as well. Something else, you have a filthy mouth.
00:05:43.080 Grow up. I did respond to Ryan, some advice for you. It is better to remain silent and be thought
00:05:50.080 the fool than to speak and remove all doubt. And then we move on to people like this.
00:05:56.120 Jamil Giovanni. I did a video on this. Mr. Giovanni goes to Washington. He goes down there because he's
00:06:02.040 got a connection with the Trump administration and he thinks he can help. He knows J.D. Vance.
00:06:09.540 Canada's in a tough situation still. We've got issues when it comes to trade with the United
00:06:13.760 States of America, whether you like Donald Trump or not, it needs to be resolved. And that's what
00:06:18.060 Jamil Giovanni wants to do. But you get people like this. He's like best friends with J.D. Vance and
00:06:25.320 he's a shit disturber. He's a rampant homophobe, transphobe, wants to be Charlie Kirk. And he on his
00:06:33.940 own went down to like hold meetings with the Trump administration, with Trump. What the fuck is this
00:06:41.320 guy doing? I think people are like dancing around this a bit to see what's going on, but like he
00:06:46.060 shouldn't be doing this shit. At the conference, he's like, well, I've offered my services and
00:06:49.560 everyone knows that I'm friends with them and I didn't get a reply. Yeah, that doesn't mean you go and do
00:06:54.860 it. He's not in power. The ball boy doesn't try and tell an NBA player, you know what? I think I
00:07:02.640 could help. Put me in the game. No, this guy is only doing this shit for PR, for clicks. But it's
00:07:09.780 showing the Trump administration who is actively trying to break up our country through Alberta
00:07:15.700 that he can just sidestep the governing party and do backroom deals with his like bigot Canada
00:07:22.800 counterparts. These young people with their analogies. No, it's not like a ball boy wanting
00:07:28.020 to get into an NBA game. It's like maybe a politician who could help. That's what he's
00:07:34.580 trying to do. Help. He's not looking for clicks and he might be able to help. The liberals are
00:07:39.640 ignoring him because they want the situation with Trump to continue because it'll win them
00:07:45.920 the next election whenever that may come. So the pain will continue in Canada. People like
00:07:50.600 you, young man, you hate Donald Trump in the United States more than you love your country.
00:07:56.540 And of course, you have to throw the phobes in there because you have to resort to insults.
00:08:02.400 I'm surprised you didn't throw a few ists and isms in there. But this is just a young kid. You get
00:08:07.520 people like this. This guy actually has some influence. Warren Kinsella. Liberal stooge. No
00:08:15.560 doubt angling for a job as senator just like Andrew Coyne. I don't give a damn if you're a liberal or
00:08:21.280 conservative. You don't go to the U.S. as Giovanni did and ass on your country. You particularly don't
00:08:26.280 do so when your country is under attack by the U.S. Now, Giovanni went there to try to help.
00:08:30.660 But you don't want him to help. God forbid he should be successful and allow a conservative to do
00:08:36.200 something good because you want the liberals to get a majority. Liberal stooge.
00:08:40.900 Liberals didn't want Giovanni to help. They need Donald Trump. He's the greatest gift they've ever
00:08:46.640 had. I can't see Paglia being happy about any of this. He's clever enough to know that Giovanni
00:08:51.200 will feature prominently in liberal attack ads, ads that may be coming sooner than later. Yeah,
00:08:55.400 they're already made, I'm sure. Do you have anything in common with Warren Kinsella? If you live in
00:08:59.940 Alberta and you want Alberta independence? Or if you just live in Alberta? Do you have anything in
00:09:04.980 common with the other nutcases I showed you? And Laura Babcock, crazy eyes lady? I don't. I don't
00:09:09.860 speak their language. And you may say, John, for every Warren Kinsella and those other people you
00:09:14.060 showed today, there's thousands of other Canadians who are just fine. Yeah, I'm sure I could get along
00:09:19.700 with a lot of them. But this is the disease that's spreading through the country. They call me
00:09:23.380 Maple MAGA because I'm a conservative. They call me a traitor because I want something better for my
00:09:28.860 family, for my province, for my soon-to-be country. I don't have anything in common with these
00:09:33.580 people. I don't like these people. What do you think? If you like the video, give it a thumbs up,
00:09:41.500 subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'm going upstairs to get another
00:09:45.640 big blue mug of coffee. I'll see you in the next one.
