00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 431 a.m. Wednesday, March the 11th. I hope you're
00:00:08.220 having a great start to your Wednesday morning. I am with the big blue mug of coffee which I tip
00:00:13.000 to you today and we're going to have some fun. We're going to learn some things here today. Now
00:00:17.740 if you live in the rest of the country, you can learn from what I'm about to say as well because
00:00:22.500 a big part of this story is about what's happening where you live as well. But we're going to talk
00:00:27.460 about Alberta. You might learn a little bit about the Alberta NDP and its leader Nahed Nenshi who
00:00:32.640 used to be the mayor of Calgary. So that's the first thing we're going to talk about. And then
00:00:36.580 we're going to talk about the indigenous chiefs here because the indigenous chiefs aren't happy
00:00:41.440 with Danielle Smith and the United Conservative Party who are going to allow a democratic vote
00:00:46.040 on independence here. And they all stood up on the legislature steps yesterday with Nahed Nenshi
00:00:50.960 and they said they're really upset folks nenshi using these chiefs all 12 of them like they're
00:00:57.320 puppets on a string i find it fascinating that nenshi says that danielle smith will end up
00:01:03.660 regretting saying what he's doing is a political stunt when what nahed nenshi is doing is a
00:01:11.780 political stunt this has never happened before we've never had a situation where all the chiefs
00:01:18.620 stand up together and say we have no confidence in this government.
00:01:22.380 The motion that was passed at the AOTC was brought forward by one of our chiefs,
00:01:26.760 Ellerly Starlight, and it was unanimously passed by all of our chiefs at the table.
00:01:30.840 For the government to suggest that Indigenous people can be used as a political stunt
00:01:36.240 is a mistake they will regret.
00:01:39.360 When they minimize First Nations and call this non-confident vote by the Alberta chiefs
00:01:46.480 a stunt, I take that personally.
00:01:48.100 Standing in the face of an unprecedented motion of non-confidence, that's all they had. 1.00
00:01:54.140 Cut the bullshit. 0.99
00:01:55.520 How do you get a pipeline built when you have a non-confidence vote from every single chief in this province? 1.00
00:02:02.900 We are bound by the Constitution and we are bound by those treaties.
00:02:08.600 When someone tells you who they are, believe them.
00:02:11.720 She and her government have lost the moral authority to be able to govern. 0.82
00:02:15.840 And to seem tough, this guy, trying to be tough, he has to throw in a little bit of profanity into
00:02:24.740 this little speech as he pulls the strings of the chiefs who are in behind him, using them as a
00:02:29.920 political stunt. And I'm going to get to the chiefs in just a moment. Oh yeah, I'm going to get to them.
00:02:33.880 And for those people living in Canada, you can learn something from this because pretty much the
00:02:38.540 same thing's happening where you live as well. I'm not going to get into who Nahed Nenshi is
00:02:42.860 and his tenure here as Calgary Mayor, it would bore you to tears.
00:02:46.580 But the political left in Alberta think that Nenshi's a rock star.
00:02:50.820 But even people in his own party are starting to question his leadership
00:02:54.320 because he trails the United Conservative Party and Daniel Smith by about 13 points right now.
00:03:00.800 And he's not a political rock star. He's more style than substance.
00:03:05.720 I'm reminded who Nahed Nenshi is all the time.
00:03:09.540 I got this in the mail two days ago.
00:03:12.460 Starting March 9th, water restrictions are in effect across Calgary.
00:03:15.760 Please save water.
00:03:17.280 Now, for those of you who don't remember, I surely do.
00:03:20.340 People in Calgary do.
00:03:21.520 We all got this in the mail the other day from the city.
00:03:24.660 We had water restrictions here a couple of summers ago because a water main break.
00:03:29.440 Because the infrastructure wasn't taken care of.
00:03:32.560 And people couldn't water their lawns or their plants or wash their cars.
00:03:36.080 And we were told to be careful when we flushed our toilets, for Christ's sakes,
00:03:39.620 In a city of, what, 1.4, 1.5 million people, there was a possibility we might not have clean drinking water.
00:03:48.500 And who's responsible for not watching out for the infrastructure?
00:03:53.320 This from Juneau News, Kian Bextie, January 7th of this year,
00:03:57.440 unredacted Watermain report indicts former Mayor Nenshi's lazy leadership style.
00:04:02.400 For over a decade, Calgarians were sold a false vision by former mayors Nahed Nenshi and Gioti Gondek.
00:04:09.620 Danielle Smith pointing her finger right at Nihed Nenshi for the water main problems here in Calgary, and I do too. 1.00
00:04:16.380 And this really pisses me off.
00:04:17.960 But who are the NDP here in Alberta?
00:04:20.900 And I'm going to come around to the Chiefs in just a moment.
00:04:25.320 Let's look at a few things.
00:04:27.340 The United Conservative Party tries to keep obscene materials from kids in school.
00:04:32.600 The NDP approves of giving obscene materials to kids in school.
00:04:36.660 They manipulate people by calling it a book ban.
00:04:39.620 The United Conservative Party protects children from sickening medical gender experiments.
00:04:44.440 The NDP approves of sickening gender experiments on kids.
00:04:48.400 The people of Alberta vote for the United Conservative government in a democratic election.
00:04:53.120 The NDP and their union goons try to use recall legislation to remove the government and they fail miserably.
00:05:00.180 The United Conservative Party will allow a democratic process to go forward to allow people the right to choose Alberta's path forward when it comes to a referendum on independence.
00:05:11.780 The NDP will allow 12 chiefs, the puppets we're talking about here, to determine the path of Alberta, using them as pawns in a political stunt to try to topple the government and try to stifle the democratic process.
00:05:26.820 Might I remind you about what's happened under an NDP government in British Columbia?
00:05:32.860 Nearly two weeks ago, the federal government signed off on three new agreements with the Musqueam Nation,
00:05:37.820 which in a press release highlighted the stewardship of marine management, fisheries management,
00:05:42.640 and a recognition of their aboriginal rights, including title within their traditional territory.
00:05:48.160 However, details remain sparse even to the province.
00:05:51.220 I haven't been briefed yet on the contents of the agreement.
00:05:54.060 I look forward to learning more about what the federal government's been doing here.
00:05:57.560 However, it became a topic of interest in question period on Monday,
00:06:00.980 the official opposition pushing the NDP on the language of the agreement
00:06:04.320 and what it could mean for landowners in the province.
00:06:07.040 This is one of the most prominent Indian bands in British Columbia
00:06:10.220 whose traditional territory, yes, includes Metro Vancouver.
00:06:13.860 And this government had no idea this agreement was being signed.
00:06:18.240 People at this information session heard a bit more background
00:06:23.060 of a B.C. Supreme Court decision handed down in August.
00:06:27.860 There were lots of questions and anger shared among hundreds of residents.
00:06:32.500 As part of their petition to the court, Cowichan tribes were seeking a declaration
00:06:36.640 that the land titles in this area that are held by the federal government
00:06:40.580 and the city of Richmond are defective and invalid.
00:06:44.420 This is what happens when a province hands control over to a small group of people
00:06:48.700 based on treaties that were written hundreds of years ago.
00:06:51.240 They own Vancouver, Kelowna, Richmond, most of the province of British Columbia.
00:06:56.980 People are terribly concerned about this, and they should be.
00:06:59.680 And if you live in the rest of the country, perhaps you should be as well.
00:07:02.220 Look what's happening in Alberta now.
00:07:04.040 As it looks like the NDP are willing to do the same thing here.
00:07:07.300 They've got treaty rights.
00:07:08.900 They're in control.
00:07:10.180 And that's what Nahed Nenshi's doing with his puppets standing on the Alberta legislature steps just yesterday. 0.60
00:07:16.460 That scares the crap out of me.
00:07:18.140 while he tries to stop a democratic process and a vote on independence here. Now, I was talking
00:07:24.620 to somebody yesterday about this, and I jotted these things down because I wanted to keep them
00:07:29.020 clear in my head. But I said, what's happening on the reserves here in Alberta, it's like a
00:07:33.800 microcosm of what's happening here in Alberta when it comes to Alberta independence right now. So
00:07:39.180 here they are right now. Albertans want to break away from the chiefs that control our destiny
00:07:44.360 and future who live in Ottawa. Indigenous people on reserves want to break away from the chiefs in
00:07:50.120 Alberta who control their destiny and future. Albertans want to get the knee of the chiefs
00:07:54.580 in Ottawa off our backs. Indigenous people in Alberta want to get the knee of the chiefs off 0.99
00:07:59.780 their back. Albertans want to wrestle the control of our wealth away from the chiefs in Ottawa. 0.68
00:08:05.120 Indigenous people want to wrestle control of their wealth away from the chiefs here in Alberta. 0.96
00:08:10.140 and Albertans want to be able to keep more of what they earn, Indigenous people just want to 1.00
00:08:15.340 own a home because they can't right now. Here's an amazing fact, folks. In 2015, the government
00:08:25.080 of Canada, meaning you as a taxpayer, gave about $11 billion to Indigenous groups across this
00:08:30.860 country. And in the 10 years of Justin Trudeau and now Mark Carney, that raised up to $32 billion
00:08:39.000 dollars a year three times as much and that's probably not counting all the money
00:08:43.680 there's probably more money going to these people 32 billion dollars a year
00:08:48.900 if you were to divide that number by the number of indigenous people who live in this country
00:08:58.400 which is about 1.6 million if you divided that money up equally amongst all those people
00:09:05.320 every man woman and child of indigenous descent in this country would get twenty thousand dollars a
00:09:12.180 year a family of four would bring in eighty thousand dollars a year but right now the average
00:09:18.600 income of an indigenous person in this country is twenty four thousand dollars about half of what
00:09:23.200 another canadian might make now i want to bring this to your attention
00:09:28.420 cory morgan cory morgan it's criminal that he only has 13 000 subscribers on his youtube channel
00:09:37.720 link in the description subscribe to cory cory morgan takes his camera out and he wants to show
00:09:42.720 you how these people are living so he goes out with his camera and he drives around on public
00:09:49.280 roads and he reports on this and this is what he saw just a short little bit because again you
00:09:56.780 don't own things, how do you get rolling? How do you get businesses going? How do you build equity
00:10:01.040 if you don't even have the house? There's a lot of people with ambition, but what do you do out
00:10:05.700 on this isolated reserve to keep things rolling? Sadly, the downtown, the businesses that are
00:10:14.100 working, there's two liquor stores in this tiny little downtown. There are bricked up buildings
00:10:21.200 again where the business has shut down over the years that the crime rate on reserves is terrible
00:10:26.780 unfortunately what cory's showing there is how these people live in squalor they should be rich
00:10:32.420 31 billion dollars of taxpayer money goes to these people what's happening here is criminal
00:10:38.780 criminal maybe we can throw in another c word corruption
00:10:44.360 how does cory get repaid for driving on a public road on a reserve they fine him
00:10:51.200 for trespassing $2,000, which he fights in court.
00:10:56.060 Instead of fixing the problem,
00:10:58.140 they go after the person who points it out
00:11:00.000 and is showing what is obvious.
00:11:01.760 This is criminal.
00:11:05.360 There's a saying.
00:11:06.960 I mentioned this to somebody yesterday.
00:11:08.460 They never heard it before.
00:11:09.320 There's a reason why the chief's driveway is always paved.
00:11:13.740 Some of you may get what I'm talking about here.
00:11:16.540 Now, I'm going to wrap this up.
00:11:18.120 This was a stunt by Nahed Nenshi.
00:11:20.760 These chiefs are trying to protect what they've got.
00:11:23.320 They all have nice suits, nice feathers on their head,
00:11:27.120 while their people live in squalor, get my point. 0.98
00:11:29.540 But there are a lot of aboriginal, indigenous,
00:11:31.880 whatever you want to call them in the province of Alberta,
00:11:33.980 who can see a better future.
00:11:35.860 The person I was talking to yesterday says
00:11:37.840 he doesn't understand what these people are doing
00:11:40.260 when they're standing beside Nehad Nenshi on the legislature steps.
00:11:44.280 If Alberta gets its independence,
00:11:46.000 it will be the first time in their history
00:11:47.520 that they can negotiate a better deal for their people, but that's not what they want. They want
00:11:53.940 the status quo. Watch Cory's videos. It was a stunt, and it's disgraceful, and the head Nenshi
00:12:02.280 should never, ever be the leader of this province. It'll be a crime if he is. This really pisses me
00:12:08.940 off. Thanks for watching. If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up. Subscribe to the
