00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. I wanted to do this short video on something
00:00:08.120 that is very important and how you can help out. Last week, I had Mitch Sylvester from
00:00:14.680 Stay Free Alberta on the channel and near the end of the interview, I asked him about
00:00:19.300 something that is concerning me and other people as well in the independence movement,
00:00:24.140 canvassers who are out collecting signatures. We've seen videos, pictures, and heard accounts
00:00:29.800 online of people who are getting threatened out there. And I'm talking about threats
00:00:34.400 from the anti-independence side. I'm concerned that somebody is going to get hurt. And one of
00:00:39.360 these people will do violence against the independence movement. Mitch had some good
00:00:44.660 advice on my show and talked about an instance that happened to him. I'm going to show you some
00:00:51.200 video within this video of a person that they're looking for who did this to Mitch. So watch this.
00:00:59.320 and if you know who this is, I'll have information at the end on where you can contact in order to
00:01:04.840 turn this person in. Okay, now another thing I wanted to talk to you about quickly is we're
00:01:09.300 seeing increasing aggressive behavior by people who disagree with us. Any advice for people out
00:01:13.560 there on the front lines trying to collect signatures and things like that? Yeah, take
00:01:17.860 pictures of these people. Take their license plates. I had somebody come and drop a bullet
00:01:22.800 it off on the desk at my store and say this and say this is for mitch we're actively going to
00:01:28.960 charge that gentleman with two charges two two charges of assault on the two girls behind the 0.51
00:01:33.600 counter um you know for terrifying them and uh you know uttering death threats and he's basically
00:01:39.760 running away from the police right now but we are going to find him and actually charge him
00:01:46.400 and anybody that thinks that they can intimidate people that are going to interfere in elections
00:01:50.480 Alberta process, we're going to prosecute. So you know what? We're actively going to do it.
00:01:57.520 We have a large file already and we're taking every single one of them very seriously because,
00:02:02.620 you know, John, we never did that to them. This is disgraceful and it's illegal. So if you know
00:02:08.080 who this person is, turn them in and you can contact Stay Free Alberta a number of different
00:02:13.380 ways. But as you're seeing on the screen here, you can send them an email at info at stayfreealberta.com.
00:02:20.480 Let's catch this person, bring them to justice, and let the other side know that this type
00:02:26.160 of behavior is unacceptable.
