00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 825 a.m. Wednesday, June the 25th with my big blue mug of
00:00:06.080 coffee. I hope you're having a great day today and I'd like to say I am, but at this point I'm
00:00:14.000 not and the reason is because of something I did and I almost feel like I owe you an apology. You
00:00:20.480 know, I sit here in my basement, I'm in my basement, I'm the guy in my basement, I'm in my 60s, I don't
00:00:26.340 follow news all day like a lot of the younger people are doing. I come on here with maybe a
00:00:32.000 little different point of view, that's why you come to my videos. I comment on Canadian politics
00:00:38.260 but I also like to think I'm helping out a little bit when it comes to the independence movement here
00:00:44.440 in Alberta. You know, I've had Cory Morgan on here, Jeevan Mangad on here, I had Mitch Sylvester from
00:00:52.760 the Alberta Prosperity Project on here talking about independence, I cover independence. I did a
00:00:57.420 video last night talking about the Republican Party of Alberta and that nightmare that they had at the
00:01:03.660 by-election on Monday night here and what they should be doing as far as helping and not being
00:01:10.600 detrimental to the independence movement. But I did something really stupid yesterday. A little over
00:01:16.620 a week ago I RSVP'd to be at an Alberta Prosperity Project rally here in Calgary and I've been looking
00:01:24.540 forward to it for a week and for some stupid reason I had it in my head that the meeting and
00:01:32.420 the rally was on Wednesday night which is tonight. I was sitting there last night doing that video and
00:01:39.100 I looked and I knew it was on June the 24th. I knew it. I looked at the date and I went oh my god
00:01:46.960 I missed the rally
00:01:48.560 and I knew it was on June 24th. It was like some kind of a brain freeze. I went up to my wife and I
00:01:57.520 said I missed that rally. I really wanted to be there. You know I had the opportunity to be the MC
00:02:04.460 on May 3rd at what I think was the first independence rally. I drove all the way to Edmonton with my wife
00:02:10.220 to be there on the steps of the Alberta legislature and I was proud to be there.
00:02:16.040 You know I was at an independence rally back in 2019 here in Calgary and I was proud to be there
00:02:21.820 and I wanted to get up after the rally in Calgary and do a video about it here on my channel
00:02:27.060 and I wasn't there because for some reason I got my time and dates mixed up and I apologize for that.
00:02:36.380 It really really bugs me.
00:02:40.680 You know when we finally get to sign on a dotted line on a petition to get the referendum to move
00:02:47.560 forward towards the referendum I'm going to be on the front lines doing that kind of stuff but right
00:02:51.280 now I feel like I can help out a little bit here and I feel like I've let you down a little bit and
00:02:56.060 that's just what I wanted to talk about this morning. Lots of stuff going on in the world right
00:02:59.900 now. I'm watching Mark Carney over in the EU spending $150 billion of our money that we don't
00:03:04.980 have. I'd like to spend money on our military but we just don't have the money unless we start
00:03:12.000 cutting back on things and Mark Carney doesn't seem to be doing that. Instead of helping Canadians
00:03:17.660 he's running off to his friends where he feels comfortable over in the EU but I just wanted to
00:03:21.780 spend a couple of minutes and tell you what the hell happened because I really wanted to have some
00:03:27.760 type of coverage of the rally for the Alberta Prosperity Project in Calgary last night and I
00:03:33.960 don't have it. So I hope you'll forgive me for that. That's all. That's all I got for you today.
00:03:39.840 Might have something a little bit later on. I do appreciate you being here. Thanks so much.
