00:05:36.780I was talking with somebody pretty well positioned within the Alberta independence movement on Sunday afternoon.
00:05:44.540This person will go unnamed because I don't think they want me talking about them.
00:05:48.060But, you know, they're saying we should sit down within a couple of weeks, just, you know, kind of go over what happened here, what went wrong and start planning the future.
00:05:56.880Whether that is trying to get into the UCP or trying to start a new party.
00:06:05.540I haven't had much time to think about it, quite honest with you.
00:08:14.620We still don't know where Lacazic was getting his money.
00:08:17.460You know, he was holding these huge rallies that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:08:20.980Where did his money come from? I'd really like to know whether we ever find that out or not. I don't know. How much was the federal government putting into his coffers? We don't know that either.
00:08:30.960cheating from the other side. That would be Lukasik. Millions of dollars spent on the other
00:08:38.040side. No one prosecuted for vandalizing or signs. Well, that may change. Mr. Albertan got somebody
00:08:43.560the other night. But all of these things were against us. We were a grassroots movement,
00:08:47.740and they had the weight of the provincial government, federal government, the machine
00:08:51.720against us. 33%, am I happy with that? Because that's kind of where we are, 32, 33% that I can
00:08:59.180see right now. No, I'm not happy with that. And it's very similar to where we were at the
00:09:06.400beginning of this process. We heard 30% earlier this year. We were talking about the mushy middle.
00:09:11.460The mushy middle didn't come to our side. I think these questions hurt. The other questions, I do.
00:09:16.720People looked at the questions that could change things and they thought, and put the constitutional
00:09:23.620ones aside. They looked at the questions that could say things and say, listen, why would I
00:09:27.620vote for option two, when I, if I vote for these things, we'll get what we want. And I think that
00:09:33.220hurt us as well. I was talking to somebody last night. They said right from the very beginning,
00:09:37.800hindsight is 2020, ladies and gentlemen, they said, um, right from the beginning,
00:09:43.960we should have rejected this question a hundred percent. And some people said that
00:09:47.420some people did say that, um, we should have just said, we won't vote for this. That was another
00:09:56.560thing i heard last night and so any numbers that come in any voting that comes in they're
00:10:02.140illegitimate but again hindsight is 2020 we were given a question we wanted to win it and we didn't
00:10:08.520win and remember you know the the 95 referendum in um in quebec they got around 40 percent the
00:10:14.940first time they got darn close the second time let me read some more of your comments here
00:10:18.980uh rick martin 4886 carney more than ever is hitching canada to the burning eu train yeah
00:10:26.500It's got nothing to do with Smith FFS.
00:10:31.720I don't know if you can elaborate on that.
00:10:33.320I think it's got a lot to do with Danielle Smith.
00:10:36.540Being here and there's pre-filled in ballots stuck to people's unfilled up ballots.
00:10:41.740And I had talked to somebody last night who said that they saw some ballots like that as well, particularly in the northeast part of Calgary.
00:10:48.580Whether we can ever prove that or not, we couldn't get our scrutineers in the door.
00:10:52.100And, you know, it's funny, the UCP sent out a, I think it was an email yesterday asking for scrutineers.
00:28:34.120The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed and hence clamorous to be led to safety by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
00:28:47.640donald trump folks oh my god trump i'm honestly i was standing in line and and i know i you again
00:28:58.260you could feel the elbows up in the room and i was standing on the stairs going down into the
00:29:03.140polling station at a church in my neighborhood here and this one guy was going on how he never
00:29:08.640buys anything american i never buy anything american you knew you knew that he was one of
00:29:13.620to lobotomize people, right? And he looked at me, what about you? I said, I bought the stuff
00:29:18.140that's cheapest because I can't afford anything because of the liberal government. And we're not
00:29:21.700supposed to talk about this stuff, but that's the only conversation I had because I don't think I
00:29:26.100was amongst friends when I was there. I feel that Carney will now fast track all policies now to
00:29:32.840destroy Canada. President Trump may well be our only hope. People say, what are you going to do
00:29:37.080the first video? Thanks, Grinchville. I appreciate it. What are you going to do is your first video?
00:29:41.000I said last night, my first video will be to go on and ask Donald Trump to make it easier for Albertans to go to the United States of America.
00:33:06.960It's a crying shame that two-thirds of Albertans enjoy high cost of living, decreasing freedoms, increasing government control, and in the end are welcoming communism.
00:52:12.080he was so pleased to be here because of what was happening to his religion in Egypt. So
00:52:17.500I don't know that it's, I don't know what the democratic big breakdown is, but I think a lot
00:52:21.980of immigrants think that people coming here should come here legally. That's how they had to do it.1.00
00:52:26.820So I'm going to wrap it up here. I appreciate you guys being here. I don't even know how to end
00:52:30.320this thing. Let me just look down here. I want something positive. Beth Mose, I'm an immigrant
00:52:37.660from Calgary, and I am for independence. And all the Cubans I know feel the same way. We hate
00:52:43.660communism. Thank you. Stop being politically correct. Mizahiri, thank you. Okay, final super
00:52:59.220chat. Rocky got knocked down and he got back up to win. We're going to leave it at that. Alberta
00:53:04.640independence. Thank you very much. I didn't know what I was going to talk about here this morning.
00:53:09.600I just woke up thinking I wanted to kind of give you guys a chance to vent. We've got a thousand
00:53:14.260people here, 597 thumbs up. I appreciate anybody that gave me a few bucks. I don't do this for
00:53:21.260that, but I do appreciate what you've done. Thank you so much. Somebody else sent a super chat in
00:53:27.820here. I think I may have missed. It was Sean. Thanks for all you do, John. You've been a strong
00:53:32.500voice for us, and we love you for it. Well, I love all you guys, and I want to thank all of the
00:53:37.320organizers. I want to thank Keith and Tanya. I want to thank the APP, all those people that
00:53:42.220helped get us here, folks, all of them. These people, third-party advertisers, all of them
00:53:47.680out there constantly, and then having to deal with damage to their property. Now, here's what
00:53:53.060I'd like to tell you. Some of the third-party advertisers are very well organized. These signs,
00:53:58.420there's rules when it comes to signs like this you know where you put them but this is over now
00:54:06.200they have to get these things down within the next 48 hours and i've talked to keith wilson
00:54:10.960and jason levine they've got plans for these i don't know whether all of these different groups
00:54:14.900have plans to get their signs down but there are rules they got to get them down so you know you
00:54:20.480can give them a hand um i don't know how many will be reaching out for assistance to get the
00:54:24.900signs off the road and there's thousands of them. So it's not over until we get all the signs that
00:54:33.520are there. I mean, when I was going up to Edmonton the other day, I was in Airdrie. I saw like 90
00:54:37.580different blue signs out there in one spot. So if you can help them in that way, for goodness
00:54:42.840sakes, do it. And we will keep you up to date on what's happening next. There are, I'm sure there
00:54:49.800our plans in the background to move us to the next spot, into where we can maybe get back to
00:54:55.120this place again. I don't want to wait 30 years. The last time there was an independence vote,
00:55:01.540a separation vote was 95. That was more than 30 years ago. I won't live that long. This might have
00:55:07.580been my only shot, but I'm hopeful that we can do this again. Something else I'm concerned about
00:55:12.780here, and I'm just going to end with this. I don't want them to stop us from doing this again.
00:55:17.040somebody said john they can't do that they can if we start our own party right if we become an
00:55:23.100independence party they can't stop us that might be the way to go but they could put barriers in
00:55:28.860a way so this never happens again they didn't want to see their bank account just disappear folks
00:55:33.460we're talking trillions of dollars in this province they couldn't let us go i think we've
00:55:39.560lost fair and square here the numbers are just too the gap is just too big we didn't get cheated out
00:55:45.880of almost a million votes. Anyway, thank you very much. I appreciate it. Just felt like chatting
00:55:51.760with you guys this morning. Got to get my wife up. I think she's late for work now. She works1.00
00:55:56.620out of the office here. I do appreciate this. Maybe I'll do more of this in the future.
00:56:01.020Thank you for everything that you've done. I call you my friends in Independence. You've been
00:56:06.120just absolutely awesome. I hope to see you very soon. Maybe we can have a big wrap-up party
00:56:10.800because I think we achieved something here. I'm very proud of what we've done. Very proud.
00:56:15.880Now, the other thing I said on my video last night, I keep saying I'm going to end this here, stay off of social media for a couple of days.
00:56:23.600There's going to be a lot of gloating.
