00:00:00.160 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel.
00:00:03.600 Over the last 18 months, since I've been heavily involved in the Alberta independence movement,
00:00:08.600 I've had a lot of people come up to me to say,
00:00:10.960 John, how can I help?
00:00:13.120 How can I help spread my message about Alberta independence?
00:00:17.060 And more recently, it's been,
00:00:18.860 how can I help spread my message about the benefits of voting for Option 2 on October the 19th?
00:00:24.940 Well, we live in a pretty remarkable time, don't we?
00:00:27.900 Most of us walk around with a portable television studio in our pockets. It's known as a cell phone.
00:00:34.460 Now, I've created a video to spread my message, but you can do it too.
00:00:39.740 Now, you don't have to be as elaborate as what I've done.
00:00:43.080 All you have to do is pick up your phone and start recording.
00:00:46.300 And I'm telling you right now, don't wait to do this. Do it now.
00:00:50.240 Okay? And what you want to do is you want to share your message on Instagram, on X, on Facebook, on YouTube, on all social media.
00:01:01.000 And when you see other messages that are the same, make sure that you share them.
00:01:06.940 And when you create your messages, I want you to tag it with hashtag my message.
00:01:12.620 This is an opportunity for us to get the message out and bring more people over to our side to vote for option two.
00:01:20.240 I hope you enjoy my video.
00:01:27.240 Hi, I'm John, and this is my message to Ottawa.
00:01:32.240 Voting Option 2 on October 19th does not mean Alberta is leaving Canada.
00:01:38.240 Option 2 is about almost $200 billion in lost investment in Alberta over the last 11 years because of Ottawa.
00:01:46.240 It's about 25 billion dollars of your money going to Ottawa every year to be
00:01:52.240 squandered by provincial and federal politicians. It's about our Western votes
00:01:57.160 being counted in elections but ultimately rendered meaningless as the 0.76
00:02:01.660 East dictates the rules. It's about our resources being locked in the ground and 0.97
00:02:09.700 Albertans who are proud, hard-working people having to grovel and beg to Ottawa
00:02:14.960 to get them out. It's about 40 long years of saying the West wants in, only to have career
00:02:22.300 politicians tell us it will happen if we maintain the status quo. I'm voting option two on October
00:02:30.080 19th because the other option means more of the same. My name is John and that's my message.
