00:00:00.080 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel, 555 a.m. on Tuesday, March the 25th, with the big blue mug of coffee.
00:00:06.760 I hope you're having a great day today.
00:00:10.760 And I don't like to go over the same ground too often, and I mentioned this the other day, but I felt compelled to do this video today.
00:00:20.060 And I'm doing a video in defense of my premier, Danielle Smith.
00:00:24.440 I stand behind her 100%.
00:00:27.440 She is taking it pretty hard right now when it comes to the media, and on X.
00:00:33.920 On X, Danielle Smith is a traitor. 0.98
00:00:36.280 Danielle Smith is unfit to lead.
00:00:37.840 Danielle Smith must resign.
00:00:39.760 I've been trending this morning on X.
00:00:41.800 I've seen columns from Dawn Braid saying that she's done damage to the Polly Ev campaign because she had the audacity to tell the Trump administration to lay off the tariffs because it was helping the liberals in the polls. 0.99
00:00:56.900 I support her 100% on that decision.
00:01:00.020 Now, she has come out in her defense, which I'll get to in just a moment, but Danielle Smith has been very clear where the threat is in this country.
00:01:07.400 She is not downplaying the threat, which you'll see in this clip I'm about to play for you, which is tariffs from Donald Trump.
00:01:13.120 But she knows where a bigger threat is coming from, and she's quite clear, and she has been quite clear about this.
00:01:19.320 And people like Dawn Braid and the Globe and Mail, who've been running articles about this particular story, just don't get it.
00:01:26.020 And a lot of people in this country just don't get it.
00:01:31.800 They're the 51st state people I talked about in my video the other day.
00:01:35.520 Millions of them are going to vote liberal again.
00:01:37.500 Listen to what Danielle Smith said in a press conference within the last week.
00:01:41.300 People seem to have very short memories in this country.
00:01:43.560 But why this?
00:01:45.440 I mean, you know, the threats are coming from, you know, the tariffs, right?
00:01:49.380 That is the biggest threat.
00:01:50.420 That's what a lot of people are worried about.
00:01:51.760 Yet you're focusing some of your energies on the federal government.
00:01:55.000 So why is that?
00:01:56.240 Well, because the biggest threat to the Alberta economy has been the past 10 years of liberal government.
00:01:59.800 They canceled $176 billion worth of investment.
00:02:03.360 We continue to face threats, whether it's the tanker ban off the West Coast, Bill C-69, which has still not been passed, net zero power rigs, net zero cars, net zero buildings, methane caps, emissions caps.
00:02:17.640 If they continue doing that, it'll crush our economy.
00:02:19.640 So I would say that we'd face a dual threat.
00:02:22.480 Yes, we have to deal with the tariffs, but we also equally have to deal with a federal liberal government that has tried to crush our economy for the past 10 years.
00:02:30.180 And we're just not going to let them do that anymore.
00:02:31.780 Danielle Smith gets it.
00:02:34.360 She sees the threat from south of the border, but she knows the biggest threat to Alberta, she is the premier of Alberta after all, is the federal government under the Liberal Party.
00:02:46.200 She's said there will be a national unity crisis here.
00:02:49.500 She's not talking about the conservatives and Pierre Polyev.
00:02:52.640 She's mentioned the word referendum.
00:02:54.980 Never heard that word come out of her mouth, but now she's talking about it.
00:02:59.020 That's why I was doing an interview earlier today with the Wild Rose Independence Party.
00:03:04.160 The separatist movement is growing here.
00:03:07.840 And they're unifying.
00:03:11.920 And the destruction of Canada is getting closer by the moment.
00:03:16.480 Folks, the call's coming from inside the house.
00:03:19.440 It's red and it says Liberal on it.
00:03:21.580 And Danielle Smith gets it.
00:03:23.120 I support her 100%.
00:03:26.840 And here's the thing.
00:03:29.740 Pierre Polyev needs to do something to shake this country to its core.
00:03:34.540 Perhaps that's what he should tell people.
00:03:37.540 Donald Trump is a threat to you.
00:03:40.160 But voting for the Liberal Party is a bigger threat to the country.
00:03:44.700 Because look what's happening in Alberta.
00:03:47.340 Look what the premier is saying.
00:03:48.740 She's telling you what is coming.
00:03:53.000 So I support Danielle Smith.
00:03:55.520 I hope she stays clear in her message and she doesn't back down.
00:04:00.800 She has come out to say why she said that.
00:04:03.440 She thinks the tariffs are meddling in our election. 1.00
00:04:07.560 That's why she said it.
00:04:09.420 But I also think it was a warning.
00:04:12.480 The Liberals are the threat, folks.
00:04:15.560 Mark Carney is the threat.
00:04:16.980 We know who he is.
00:04:19.400 It's all on record.
00:04:21.260 But now he's lying to you.
00:04:24.700 If you're voting Liberal, you're being lied to.
00:04:28.220 Misled. 0.55
00:04:28.900 It's what Liberals do. 0.97
00:04:31.280 Anyhow, that's my video for today.
00:04:34.440 Thank you so much for watching.
00:04:36.300 We're very close to 17,000 here.
