00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, PJ here. This video is going to be a little bit different. It's going to be more of an open format where I give you guys an update, try to keep you informed on everything that's going on when it comes to Alberta independence, Alberta politics, what's going on in Alberta, what's going on in Canada, a little bit of US politics, the things that we do touch and talk about on the channel.
00:00:24.440 So I basically just wanted to keep you guys posted. We're going to be doing this probably once a week. We'll see how it does. But yeah, I just wanted to firstly thank each and every one of you who have subscribed. I think we just passed 23,000 as of the time of this video. Thank you guys so much. Thank you very much. You're very much appreciated. We've got an amazing support and I couldn't do this videos without you guys to support. Thank you very much.
00:00:51.460 Special thanks to all the channel members. Your generosity is huge and it definitely helps me continue doing this, continue making videos, continue bringing the updates that you care about. Thank you so much. If you haven't subscribed, I invite you to.
00:01:11.500 If you're interested in the subject of Alberta independence, Canadian politics in general, sometimes we do touch on important topics having to do with US politics. So if you haven't subscribed, I invite you to. We'll definitely keep you posted. We'll bring you the no bullshit information that you're looking for.
00:01:31.720 So today we're going to start with, you know, just an update on Alberta independence. Those of you who watch this channel, that's mostly what we talk about. It's a subject that I am genuinely and personally, personally, sorry, personally interested in.
00:01:51.720 Uh, San Albertan myself. This is something that I hold, uh, very close. Um, and yeah, so I'm going to be providing you guys an update on what is going on here in this province. Uh, what's happening as of today.
00:02:06.380 Okay. So it will come as no surprise to many of you that the movement or group that I personally support, uh, leading this, um, this hope for a referendum on independence is the Alberta prosperity project.
00:02:24.620 They're the not-for-profit that is spearheading the effort to put forward a referendum, a legal referendum on the question on the question of whether Alberta will separate Canada. Uh, update on that. They recently deposited the official request or official form. Um, not sure the terminology, but an official form requesting elections Alberta to
00:02:54.620 uh, approve, uh, approve, sorry, to approve the referendum question. Uh, I had posted on this channel several times, uh, what the question reads. If you haven't seen it, you guys can go on the Alberta prosperity project.com. They have it there. You can go on their Facebook. You can also see it on some of my posts. The question has been formulated. Um, Jeffrey Rath, which is one of the founders of the Alberta prosperity project said that he formulated said question, uh, with the clarity act.
00:03:24.620 Uh, the portion of the, uh, the portion of the Canadian constitution, which allows the referendum on separation to take place. So they, he said that him and, uh, constitutional Alberta constitutional lawyer, Keith Wilson formulated the question while looking at the clarity act to make sure that the question was valid because one of the stipulations of the clarity act, um, as his name, as his name says,
00:03:54.600 it has to be a clear question. It has to be concise. It has to be precise. It has to be precise. It cannot be any mumbo jumbo. It can't be anything too complicated, too complex that, uh, can be misconstrued or misunderstood. So yeah, so they've deposited a, the application. Uh, there's also this, uh, there's talks, uh, talks of this has been politician. I don't, I don't even want to mention that guy. I don't want to give
00:04:24.600 it to me about it. It's this, um, leftist has been politician here in Alberta trying to stifle and hinder the real referendum by creating a bogus referendum, a referendum saying, uh, Alberta should stay in Canada and reject any sort of separation talk.
00:04:42.600 Something along those lines, the leaders of the Alberta prosperity project have expounded on that. And they've said, I think, I think it was Jeffrey Rath. I saw it on his Twitter. He says something to the effect that that, um, particular question is probably going to be invalidated because you cannot have a referendum question on the status quo.
00:05:04.600 What do, what do they mean by that? Well, the question is asking that Alberta stay a part of Canada and not separate. Well, Alberta is currently a part of Canada and not separate from Canada. So it's the status quo. It's like creating a referendum and asking, uh, for the sky to be made blue. Well, the sky is already blue, so there's no need for it. Right? So they're saying that elections, Alberta is probably going to invalidate said
00:05:34.540 said question. That guy, you can tell he's just a has been trying to stay relevant, probably a liberal operative, federal liberal operative. Uh, I told you guys, you guys are very aware. I've told you multiple times that there's nothing they'll do anything and everything to try to block, hinder, stifle this movement. Uh, this is only the beginning. It's only going to get nastier and nastier. They're going to come up with all kinds of things. They're going to come up with special interest groups. Uh, speaking of special interest groups,
00:06:04.540 they're going to get the chiefs, um, Aboriginal chiefs, the leadership, because just because the sheet, the chiefs say something, it doesn't mean that that's what each and every single first nations person believes. There's actually many, many first nations, uh, individuals and tribes people who support Alberta independence, who see an opportunity for more prosperity, more independence, more growth, uh, and potential equal partnership, partnership.
00:06:34.520 For a change as opposed to what they have currently with the crown, which isn't really an equal partnership. Uh, they're, they've never had, they've been abused. Um, but the chiefs keep saying, well, the crown is the crown that we have a deal with the crown.
00:06:47.520 Uh, and it always baffles me to see them defending the crown and the federal government of Canada. To me, it's partially nonsensical because these are people who have been historically mistreated by the government of Canada. The government of Canada has never dealt in good faith with them. So when they defend them, you can't help but wonder, uh, what's going on here is a backroom deals with the leadership.
00:07:14.520 Uh, and many people, uh, and many people, including first nations tribes, people that are not in the leadership roles. They say that a lot of these chiefs are corrupt. A lot of them, you know, receive money from the federal government and they want to keep the gravy train going. So that would add up. That makes sense. Uh, that's why I said, I partially don't get it, but I do get it because if there is corruption, then that makes sense. That's adding up.
00:07:37.520 That's adding up. They want to keep the status quo. They don't want to be audited. If, if Alberta suddenly became independent, then it's a ground shift. Everything is changing and could be audits. There could be, you know, all kinds of different things. So those are the top.
00:07:51.520 And that's true in the top. And that's true in any organization. That's not just true of first nations. Those at the top are going to present the most resistance to systematic change because they're benefiting from the system.
00:08:03.520 They don't want to change the system. They benefit from it. Uh, those of us at the bottom are often the ones that want to make change. And speaking of, uh, grassroots movements and things moved, uh, by people. I like the Alberta prosperity project because it is grassroots because it is not a political political party. Um, I have no issue with independent, uh, or Alberta independence political parties,
00:08:32.520 but I do believe that the best way to move forward with this, um, with this objective of Alberta sovereignty is to go the grassroots way, which is why, again, I back the Alberta prosperity project. As far, as far as I know, so far, they're, they're the better way to go because they're, it's people. It's, it's civil. Uh, it's just regular people. It's not, uh, public servants or anything like that. It's grassroots.
00:08:59.520 It's grassroots. And that's the way you want to go about this. Uh, politicians have their own interest. Um, so I think that's the better way to go on the Alberta politics side. Um, Smith, Premier Smith of Alberta recently gave an ultimatum to, uh, to the federal government.
00:09:21.520 She had several rallies in which she reiterated those demands that she has to ensure that, uh, that there's unity in Canada. Um, another thing, uh, developing here in Alberta is that her approval rating for Premier Daniel Smith.
00:09:40.660 I always mispronounce her name, Daniel Smith. I always go Daniel. Uh, the approval rating for Premier Daniel Smith has gone up since she approved the, since she passed the law enabling or making a referendum much easier politically. So that's, that's great news for Alberta.
00:10:04.860 And here's why politicians are motivated by public support. That's why there's approval ratings. That's why those even exist. If a politician sees that the people are not behind them, then they'll do oftentimes, especially nowadays with how spineless politicians tend to be.
00:10:25.400 They'll do whatever the people say. I mean, just look at the recent election that happened in Canada, the recent federal election. We have the liberals and then we have liberal light on the part of the so-called conservatives. They weren't really conservatives in the true sense of the word, in the true sense of the libertarianism that character, uh, that describes what conservatism really is. Sorry guys, I lost the word there. Um, so, so yeah, so the fact that she's getting,
00:10:55.400 great approval ratings is a reminder, but no surprise there because 65% according to a recent, recent poll, 65% of her base supports independence. So she, she's basically doing what her base wants her to do, which is not, it's nothing crazy brave. It's just what politicians should do anyway.
00:11:18.400 If your base elected you for a reason or your base changed their mind on something, then these are the people who elected you. It behooves you to try to please them, right? If you want their support come the next election. But oftentimes politicians forget that there will be another election a few years down the road and that they will likely need, uh, their basis support. Uh, again, there's a prime example right here in Alberta of what happens when you don't listen to your base.
00:11:48.380 The previous premier before, right before Daniel Smith was ousted kicked out of Alberta by his own base because he had, he implemented some of the most draconian COVID, uh, coronavirus laws, uh, in Alberta. This guy was jailing, uh, jailing pastors. He was putting literally preacher in prison. Um, and yeah, it was looking rough out here, man. Um, what do they call it? Mandate passports.
00:12:18.380 In order to go to a restaurant in order to go to a gym and yeah, Albertans weren't having any of it. And it just, guy just got kicked out. Um, he got, uh, there was a leadership review and he got, he got removed from office and he's disgraced.
00:12:32.380 Now nobody likes him in the province. So tells you everything, but yeah, politicians oftentimes just see where people are going and then they get in front to give the appearance that they're leading the group. But really the way things work and the way things should work is that a citizen led, the citizens, the free citizens of a society lead said movement and do their part. Okay. Um, on another subjects, on another subject, there's a lot of wildfires happening here in Alberta. Uh,
00:13:02.380 it's fire season. I believe it started a little bit earlier than it usually does. This thing started in like mid May and there's a lot of fires happening, mostly in the Northern part of Alberta, which is the most acceptable part of the province. There's a bunch of fires. Um, as you guys know, the government, uh, is going to be using that. At least the liberals are going to be using that to push their climate agenda, their whole climate hysteria thing where they, um, say that the planet is burned.
00:13:32.380 And, and, and, you know, we all should be freaking out and we should be paying higher taxes so that the climate gods, uh, you know, forgive us for our sins of driving our vehicles up and down the road and taking a little vacation on our camper with our camper and, you know, so on and so forth. Uh, I oftentimes say whenever you see some hysteria, some crazy thing, look who benefits, whoever benefits is probably the one pushing it. Uh, what I'm trying to say with that is that.
00:14:02.380 You know, they, it's convenient for them to have this kind of stuff. As much as it sounds a little bit conspiratorial and whatnot, it's not really, there's multiple reports of arson happening both in Manitoba earlier this month and also here in Alberta.
00:14:20.480 Matter of fact, the government of Alberta did a study and over 65% of fires are human started. Like a human started 65% of the fires that happened here. Human cost one way or another. It doesn't necessarily mean when they say human cost, it doesn't necessarily mean that somebody willfully started a fire, went into the woods and just lit up a match and threw it in there.
00:14:44.260 Um, sometimes it's just negligence. You're driving on the highway, you got a cigarette, you know, and you throw it out the window when you're done and it's really dry out here. It's really windy. The conditions are prime for a fire to be started.
00:14:57.220 So, you know, fire start that way. The fire start when you're camping and you don't put out your campfire properly. There's those situations too, but there's also a lot of arson. RCMP has made multiple arrests, both in Alberta.
00:15:10.040 They've made arrests in Quebec. One of the biggest fires in Quebec history was started by some maniac activists who literally, uh, as he saw the narrative, not adding up, you know, the narrative that he believes in that the planet is on fire. He went out there and he created his own narrative. This guy just started a huge fire. You guys can look this up. Um, in Manitoba, two arrests were made too for arson on some of the biggest wildfires out there and a lot in Alberta, uh, as well. Uh, town of Jasper was burned through.
00:15:39.320 That was more mostly negligence in the part of, um, part of the federal government. Uh, Jasper is a national park in our Rocky mountains. They forestry wasn't, uh, on top of maintaining and creating fire breaks and fire barriers and, you know, getting rid of the dead trees. They didn't do any of that. But again, if you're trying to push a climate narrative and a climate hysteria narrative, climate agenda, climate cult, whatever you're saying.
00:16:09.320 If you want to call it, then yeah, you want this fires to happen. You don't want them to, to stop because it contributes to the, to the narrative that you're trying to push on people in other news. Then you have, uh, the immigration topic in Canada, which is, um, it's something that, uh, always saddens me. This country is going down the toilet and it's, it's willfully going down the toilet.
00:16:33.320 Uh, numbers came out from statistics Canada on the latest immigration numbers on the first four months, uh, of this year, the first trimester, nearly a million people have already come into Canada as immigrants, which is insanity.
00:16:48.320 Like what the hell is going on Canada? Nearly a million people, well over 870,000, I believe was the official number of including permanent residents, temporary workers, which is the biggest F you biggest middle finger to our youth who can't find any work in their own.
00:17:07.320 God damn country. Temporary foreign workers was like 400 or something like 400,000 work permits to foreign people. When Canadian, the youth especially are having the hardest time to land summer jobs. This country is literally dying and it's dying. 0.97
00:17:25.320 Because of its own doing like it's, it's, it's, it's killing itself. The politicians are killing this country. How the hell do you bring 800 plus thousand people into a country where the unemployment rate keeps, keeps increasing the homelessness, homelessness problem keeps growing where you have a, an affordability crisis.
00:17:48.320 800 plus thousand. Let that number sink in for a minute. And majority of them are foreign workers. Seriously. Um, I think they're doing it for more than one reason. They're obviously importing voters, importing new voters because majority of this immigrants that they bring vote liberal, by the way, over 50% of the new immigrants are mostly from India or around 50%. Uh, my apologies should be around 47%.
00:18:18.300 Something, something like that is the last number I checked. So about half of the amount of people coming in are from India. So much for diversity. You think diversity, which is the word the liberals love in this country is a mix of different people and equal numbers possibly, but it's more like they're trying to turn this country into the next India. Are you out in the streets? And again, I got nothing against the Indians, but you, if I go to Japan, I want to see Japanese people. I don't know if that makes sense to you. If I go to Mexico, I want to see Mexicans, right? 0.99
00:18:48.300 I want to see other people too, but I want to see mostly the people, right? That are from there. Um, Indians now what number? Native Canadians by far? Middle Easterns too. And it's crazy what's happening out here, guys. Um, Canada's becoming third world and losing their country without a single shot fired, which is insane and sad.
