00:00:00.000 Well, ladies and gentlemen, Alberta patriots are winning big time, and you can see it clear as day.
00:00:07.540 You see, Canada is now willing to negotiate.
00:00:11.720 Think about that.
00:00:13.040 The same country, the same political class that told you this was small,
00:00:18.320 fringe, that this wasn't real, that told you no one was taking it seriously,
00:00:23.780 is now saying, OK, let's talk.
00:00:27.080 And why?
00:00:27.680 because this movement is not going away that's why it's only growing and they know it
00:00:36.040 and majority of canadians now are open to negotiate with alberta patriots a majority
00:00:43.960 of canadians they're not ignoring it they're not mocking it and they're not trying to shut it down
00:00:49.780 anymore i mean they couldn't shut it down which is why they're now willing to negotiate and you
00:00:55.380 only negotiate when you think the other side has power, when you think the possibility of
00:01:01.140 independence is actually real. And that right there is the win. And it's a huge win. Because
00:01:08.360 if this was actually fringe, like they kept saying forever, you don't negotiate. You don't
00:01:14.800 pull people about it. You don't talk about reforms. You don't talk about changing the system.
00:01:19.660 You ignore it and you go about your day, but they can't ignore it anymore, can they?
00:01:25.560 It's way too big now.
00:01:27.280 Western alienation.
00:01:28.680 You turn that feeling to the max, you get this recurring question of...
00:01:32.820 The largest expression of separatist feeling yet seen in Western Canada.
00:01:37.220 And the growing support for separatism...
00:01:38.720 The talk of Western separation.
00:01:40.680 Alienation in Alberta.
00:01:42.280 As an idea, it's at least 50 years old.
00:01:45.400 I think most people out here don't really want to separate.
00:01:47.560 i think it's they're almost forced to if quebec can walk we can walk separation is that a viable
00:01:55.620 plan b if we can't work this out i feel that alberta have everything to be a country and
00:02:01.160 here's why this is getting worse for them almost half of albertans say that they believe they're
00:02:07.880 underrepresented in this country half let that sink in so half of the population of alberta
00:02:16.220 believe that the conditions that alberta exists under within canada are unfair and that is what
00:02:24.780 they're worried about that the number of albertans that are willing to vote for independence is much
00:02:31.180 larger than the polls will tell you they know what the real polls are they know this is a silent
00:02:38.300 majority this is why they're willing to negotiate and now the rest of the country is starting to
00:02:44.620 admit it starting to see it starting to realize okay there's a real problem here now lately what's
00:02:52.300 given the movement a bit of steam is the involvement of donald trump and his team alberta is a wealth
00:02:58.460 of natural resources but they they won't let them build a pipeline i think we should let them come
00:03:04.380 down the into the u.s and alberta is a natural partner for the u.s i would say uh no you know
00:03:12.540 thanks but no thanks we will do our own things to go to a foreign country and to ask for assistance
00:03:18.700 in breaking up canada there's an old-fashioned word for that and that word is treason but here's
00:03:24.780 where this turns into a straight-up power shift canada is now more willing to negotiate with the
00:03:32.060 west vis-a-vis alberta and saskatchewan than with quebec think about that for a second for decades
00:03:41.100 quebec held the leverage quebec made the demands and quebec got the attention now it's alberta
00:03:50.300 and saskatchewan and why because deep down everyone in canada knows the truth if quebec
00:03:57.740 leaves it might actually be a good thing for canada if alberta left and it is done canada
00:04:04.460 would be in deep deep trouble that's why they're talking now that's why they're open to negotiating
00:04:11.340 that's why the tone is changing so rapidly this is what pressure looks like and this is what
00:04:18.720 momentum looks like this is what happens when people stop backing down and again the day we
00:04:24.860 declare ourselves independent from canada we literally become the country in the world with
00:04:29.580 the highest gdp per capita of any country in the world ireland currently i think is number two
00:04:34.340 Luxembourg's number one, but a Luxembourg teeny population, it's all banking. I mean, 0.99
00:04:38.680 we can sort of disregard, it's basically a family, Luxembourg is basically a family trust. So we can
00:04:43.060 disregard Luxembourg, right? But look at Ireland. Okay. So we have 10 times the land of Ireland.
00:04:49.260 We have the same population, 10 times the land. We have more university degrees per capita than
00:04:54.300 Ireland. So we have a very well-educated young population, 10 times the land of Ireland. We
00:04:59.460 have more barrels of oil per capita than saudi arabia right so on what basis would we not be
00:05:06.740 extremely successful and on what basis would albertans not be so much better off outside of
00:05:12.500 canada than we are now where all of our wealth is just siphoned away from us you know by our colonial
00:05:18.180 masters in ottawa that don't care one bit about us other than to take our money and now the question
00:05:23.620 is if they're already willing to negotiate if they're already starting to admit that there's
00:05:29.700 a problem if they're apparently already taking this seriously what happens next how far does
00:05:36.820 this go and what are they willing to give up to keep alberta within canada i'm from the province
00:05:43.780 of alberta originally that's our texas in canada it's where all the oil sands are and we already
00:05:49.140 signed an agreement with america that gives you not only unlimited access like canada cannot limit
00:05:55.540 the access to how much oil you buy exclusive you get preferential preferential access to our oil
00:06:01.140 than any other country like it's it's the most amazing deal from america's point of view and
00:06:06.420 you know venezuela has got huge oil reserves but alberta that's the province i'm referring to which
00:06:11.460 which is the most right-wing province, it has about 170 billion barrels of oil.
00:06:18.200 That's enough to – it's a staggering amount.
00:06:21.440 It's really staggering.
00:06:21.720 By the way, let's talk about that.
00:06:23.080 It's not just that province.
00:06:24.320 There's multiple.
00:06:25.440 The numbers show could secede.
00:06:27.620 How is that going to work, and will the central government try to stop it?
00:06:31.220 You know, I'm so glad you asked me that question.
00:06:33.940 That province of Alberta feels hard done by for a lot of real reasons
00:06:37.500 Because the provinces in Canada, like Alberta is a smaller population, and it gets looted with taxes and carbon taxes and transfer taxes by the central government.
00:06:50.640 And it just doesn't have the votes to stop it because we don't have the checks and balances like your U.S. Senate, which protects little states and big states.
00:06:58.980 So there is a separatist wave sweeping over the province of Alberta right now.
00:07:02.440 last polls I saw show that about 35 percent of Albertans want to be independent and that's
00:07:07.640 without a real campaign. So the government of Alberta has agreed that if a certain number of
00:07:13.480 petitions are received, they will have an independence vote. And I have to say every
00:07:19.720 night I see more video on my X feed of little towns and cities where thousands of people are
00:07:26.440 videos where you've got mile long lines going into vote yeah and an independent alberta would be
00:07:33.880 culturally politically economically very free it would be like north dakota it would be like
00:07:40.360 montana which is what we border hey if you've made it this far thank you so much for watching
