00:00:00.000 Oh, excellent.
00:00:11.180 A few moments later.
00:00:30.000 Oh, hi, welcome to the channel.
00:00:49.700 I'm John.
00:00:50.560 It is Sunday, February 22nd.
00:00:53.300 It is 1.40 in the afternoon.
00:00:54.900 I hope you're having a great Sunday and a great weekend as well.
00:00:58.320 I am just sitting down here in my basement, relaxing, and reading my latest book that
00:01:03.000 just came from Amazon.
00:01:04.260 And of course, I've got my big blue mug of coffee this afternoon.
00:01:08.220 I hope you don't mind if I take a sip.
00:01:12.280 I tip the mug to you.
00:01:14.640 So this is my latest book, How Alberta Got Its Independence, written by Derek Smith.
00:01:20.140 You know Derek as unacceptable fringe, but not only that, it is illustrated by Rise of Alberta.
00:01:27.460 So two titans of Alberta independence responsible for this book.
00:01:31.800 But this is really Derek's baby.
00:01:33.340 Now, this book right now is number one in political humor, number one in political current events,
00:01:39.020 and number one in satire, as well as number three on Amazon right now.
00:01:44.100 And what I'd like you to do is help me get it to number one.
00:01:47.700 It's $16.99 right now.
00:01:49.560 But Derek is such a stand-up guy.
00:01:51.680 Some of the proceeds from this book are going directly to Stay Free Alberta to help Alberta gain its independence.
00:01:58.660 Now, I haven't finished the book as of yet, but I've gotten to a part where we see the evil Mark Carney.
00:02:04.780 See him there?
00:02:05.320 Evil and angry.
00:02:06.800 And I have a feeling that the book will have a happy ending,
00:02:09.840 and that Mark Carney will be vanquished by the end of the book.
00:02:13.420 Now, when it comes to this book, there are other fringe benefits when you buy this book.
00:02:18.480 Not unacceptable fringe benefits.
00:02:20.940 Fringe benefits.
00:02:21.800 Now, let me take you back.
00:02:23.240 You probably didn't know this.
00:02:25.300 Do you remember the movie It's a Wonderful Life at the end where George Bailey is standing there
00:02:29.740 with his little daughter, Zuzu, and she's got that famous line?
00:02:33.600 Teacher says, when a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.
00:02:36.780 Do you remember that?
00:02:37.600 That wasn't actually the line that was written.
00:02:40.260 They actually changed it, but they did do a take.
00:02:44.320 The actual line is, teacher says, every time you buy Derek's book, a liberal sheds a tear.
00:02:52.540 You don't believe me?
00:02:54.320 Really?
00:02:57.520 Look, Daddy.
00:02:58.760 Teacher says, every time you buy Derek's book, a liberal sheds a tear.
00:03:04.340 Never doubt me.
00:03:06.020 I'll bet you didn't know that.
00:03:07.280 So, when you buy this book, How Alberta Got Its Independence, not only will you be supporting a great guy, Derek Smith, Unacceptable Fringe, and a great illustrator, Rise of Alberta, but you'll be supporting the Alberta independence movement because some of the proceeds go directly to Stay Free Alberta.
00:03:25.920 Great things, but as good as those things are, the cherry on the top, the icing on the cake is the fact that if you buy this and help get it to number one, you will make liberals cry.
00:03:39.700 I'll put a link in the description so you can pick it up on Amazon.
00:03:42.960 By the way, I'll have Derek Unacceptable Fringe on the channel on Wednesday.
00:03:48.920 Look for that interview.
00:03:50.060 We'll talk about the book.
00:03:51.460 We'll talk about the independence movement.
00:03:53.340 So much to talk about right now, so look forward to seeing that on Wednesday.
00:03:56.860 Thanks a lot for watching this video.
00:03:58.480 If you liked it, give it a thumbs up.

00:04:04.700 Now, I want to get to the end of the book to see how it ends.
00:04:06.960 I hope they end up putting Carney in jail for his dealings with Brookfield.
