00:00:00.840 Alberta. We're wild and tough and beautiful, maybe even a little stubborn.
00:00:09.080 We agree that good enough isn't good enough.
00:00:13.380 We grab the bull by the horns.
00:00:16.660 We're for small towns and big cities.
00:00:19.680 We say hello to our neighbors and to strangers too.
00:00:23.860 We know everything that matters starts with a home and a family.
00:00:27.260 This is Alberta.
00:00:30.000 This is oil country right here.
00:00:32.520 And soon enough, this land might become the newest independent nation on Earth.
00:00:37.800 It could also go on to become the 51st state in the Union.
00:00:41.980 Old glory has flown in these parts before.
00:00:44.800 And soon, it may fly over this land again.
00:00:48.660 Let's get into it.
00:00:50.320 Very quickly though, if you enjoy these videos, please do me a solid and subscribe.
00:00:54.680 It's free and you can always unsubscribe later if you change your mind.
00:00:58.120 Thank you and back to the video.
00:01:00.280 The beautiful thing I've noticed about this movement for Alberta independence is that the more the liberals and the woke left try to discredit or undermine it, the more it seems to grow.
00:01:13.860 I've been reporting on this subject almost exclusively for several months, and I can tell you, with first-hand knowledge, that the support and progress has nearly doubled since I first talked about Alberta independence.
00:01:26.240 The education effort of organizations like the Alberta prosperity project and other pro-Alberta groups is clearly paying off.
00:01:34.420 The more people learn, the more people learn, the more they realize it is time for Alberta to become an independent nation.
00:01:41.060 Not only will it abandon the decay and degradation that the rest of Canada is experiencing, but it will thrive, completely unshackled from Ottawa's regulatory regime.
00:01:53.640 Get her done, Alberta.
00:01:54.620 Meanwhile, people are signing a petition saying, why not be the 51st state?
00:01:59.160 And so when you look at Alberta, Alberta wants to trade its oil and wants to make deals to trade oil, and the state kind of messes with them.
00:02:06.400 Because if they allowed them to do it, you know how wealthy Alberta would be? 1.00
00:02:09.580 Texas.
00:02:10.260 And by the way, they also have the thriving beef industry.
00:02:12.160 So what the Albertans are saying is, we're on this island, and we're not with the program, and they want either an Alberta accord, and look, it's an accord with your own country, and they're asking for access to a port.
00:02:26.660 They're a part of Canada, and they just want access to the port so they can export their oil.
00:02:31.380 Isn't that crazy?
00:02:32.220 The U.S. has never said that, you know, Oklahoma or Arkansas couldn't send things to a Houston port to export.
00:02:42.340 This happens all the time.
00:02:43.700 And so they're talking about how fed up they are, and there you have it.
00:02:48.280 Your own country won't even do things for you.

00:02:59.240 If you've already subscribed, thank you very much.
00:03:02.580 I appreciate it.
00:03:03.840 Now, back to the video.
00:03:05.320 Of course, there's my group, which is those of us who understand that Alberta independence is the only solution at this point.
00:03:13.980 Alberta getting the hell out of Canada is the way to go.
00:03:16.760 Then there's the group that you'll never convince.
00:03:19.220 It's probably a third of the population.
00:03:21.000 They don't want to be convinced.
00:03:22.620 They don't care about the facts.
00:03:24.340 They simply don't want to listen.
00:03:26.680 But then you have a big portion in the middle who are still willing to listen, and those are the people we need to reach.
00:03:34.980 Those are the people we need to talk to.
00:03:36.860 Although, you know, you mentioned Alberta.
00:03:38.720 Half of the electorate in Alberta wants to succeed.
00:03:42.440 I know.
00:03:43.260 I know.
00:03:43.940 You know, Trump is very much playing into their hands.
00:03:47.000 He knows that is where the money is.
00:03:49.160 Of course, they send so much more money to Ottawa than they get back from.
00:03:53.840 They're having a referendum early in the year just to quell that whole separatism thing.
00:03:58.300 Good luck.
00:03:59.000 Might quell it, might blame it a little bit.
00:04:01.940 As many of you know, in the western Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, there has been a consistent and significant push to become independent from Canada,
00:04:12.240 as in separating and becoming their own country, or possibly joining America as new states or territories.
00:04:18.760 One of the main reasons, among others, for these two provinces having had enough with Canada to the point that they want to separate,
00:04:26.820 is how for well over a decade, the Canadian federal government hasn't allowed them to develop their energy resources and critical mineral extraction.
00:04:35.580 Both industries have been attacked constantly by unreasonable federal laws and regulations,
00:04:41.420 but it seems that Alberta and Saskatchewan have had enough and are creating a western alliance to fight back against federal overreach.
00:04:49.900 So, under law in Canada, because of the 1998 reference case in the Federal Clarity Act,
00:04:57.700 it says that once there is a successful vote on a clear question by a province to succeed,
00:05:05.800 then the other provinces, First Nations and the federal government are under a positive legal duty to enter into good faith negotiations
00:05:13.080 as to the terms upon which the province will become an independent country.
00:05:18.040 I do not expect good faith negotiations.
00:05:20.860 I expect them to thwart things, force court applications.
00:05:25.220 So, well, why am I optimistic that this could still happen then if I am of the view that the federal government may not enter into good faith negotiations?
00:05:34.460 But the most important one is the United States.
00:05:37.640 So, paragraph 155 of the Supreme Court of Canada decision talks about this scenario,
00:05:43.740 and it hints at if the federal government and the other parties don't enter into good faith negotiations,
00:05:49.100 it doesn't preclude international recognition.
00:05:51.560 It does not preclude other countries giving unilateral international recognition to Alberta in this instance, right?
00:05:59.880 Well, the APP sent a delegation down several months ago to meet with a delegation of the U.S. State Department in Washington,
00:06:06.840 and they indicated to that APP delegation that they believe that the Trump administration would be prepared,
00:06:14.800 following a successful referendum, to acknowledge statehood independence of Alberta.
00:06:21.200 International recognition is one of the most crucial steps that any would-be country, would-be nation has to go through.
00:06:29.440 This is like a stamp that adds legitimacy to the claim of nationhood of the would-be country,
00:06:37.560 so that it is not considered a rogue or illegitimate territory in the eyes of the international community.
00:06:44.800 Getting it from any nation, any established nation-state, gives credibility to the independence process.
00:06:53.120 But receiving it from the United States, the most powerful nation in the planet, that would be the ultimate game-changer.
00:07:02.080 When this happens, Alberta becomes a country on that day.
00:07:06.960 Alberta becomes the newest nation-state on that very day.
00:07:11.760 We know that the resources that will be available to the government to deliver critical services are going to go through the roof, right?
00:07:18.920 Like, they're really going to be easier for government.
00:07:22.000 The cost of living will go down, housing affordability and rent affordability will go up.
00:07:26.800 It will be a tremendous opportunity for our young people to have a prosperous future.
00:07:32.080 We could become a role model in how, if you remove excessive regulations and red tape, and create an environment for businesses to thrive, that the prosperity that that will bring, that will lift us all up and create a remarkable opportunity for Albertans.
00:07:48.960 So there's a lot of optimism out there. I think it's real. It's well-founded.
00:07:52.960 All right. Thanks for watching. Thank you for subscribing.
