00:00:00.000 Look, I honestly believe this is the closest Canada has ever been from completely falling into pieces.
00:00:07.420 Canada is about to break apart, and anyone paying attention understands exactly why that's happening.
00:00:13.200 If I had it my way, if I had it my way, Alberta would separate and become an independent country,
00:00:18.940 and then we can negotiate with Canada for coastal access.
00:00:23.260 They won't give us coastal access. Maybe we negotiate with the Americans. 1.00
00:00:26.220 They've been a lot friendlier.
00:00:30.000 Hey everybody, it's PJ. I appreciate you being here.
00:00:34.820 In today's report, we'll be looking at an oil pipeline announcement coming straight from the government of Alberta
00:00:39.680 and how the rest of Canada, particularly British Columbia and Quebec, are already sabotaging the project,
00:00:46.980 and it hasn't even started yet.
00:00:48.700 And then we have Premier Danielle Smith with a very strong warning for the rest of Canada.
00:00:53.420 Is she actually playing 3D chess and we just don't realize it?
00:00:57.500 We'll be covering this and other important topics you won't want to miss.
00:01:01.640 But before we start, do me a favor and double check if you're still subscribed.
00:01:06.140 If you are, thank you.
00:01:08.220 Please click the bell and notifications icon so you never miss an update on the Alberta independence movement.
00:01:13.540 Let's get into the video.
00:01:14.820 So we're looking at the announcement from Alberta Premier Danielle Smith.
00:01:18.520 She says,
00:01:48.520 So this is an announcement she put out yesterday, October 1st, 2025,
00:02:08.220 where she announces her intent or the intent of her government to start investing into advancing a project of a pipeline
00:02:19.680 that is going to go to the West Coast.
00:02:21.220 Well, the hope is that it goes from Alberta, which has most of Canada's oil deposits,
00:02:26.600 heading to the northwest coast of British Columbia, Port of Prince Rupert, I believe, or Kitimat.
00:02:33.260 So that is the goal.
00:02:35.760 That is the announcement that she made yesterday.
00:02:38.200 Then we have Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe throwing his support behind the project,
00:02:44.720 behind Alberta's announcement of a new oil pipeline to the West Coast.
00:02:49.560 He says, and I quote,
00:02:51.800 So that was Scott Moe, again, Premier of Saskatchewan, which is the province to the east of Alberta.
00:03:14.240 For those of you south of the border who may not know, Alberta and Saskatchewan are basically natural allies.
00:03:21.920 These are two provinces that were created and integrated into the Canadian Federation at the same time,
00:03:28.320 both being screwed by Ottawa for decades and decades.
00:03:33.060 Alberta, to a larger extent, but Saskatchewan as well.
00:03:35.940 And it is no surprise that the Conservative Premier of Saskatchewan, Scott Moe, is showing his support for Alberta,
00:03:45.380 and it is very welcomed.
00:03:47.640 But of course, there's already pushback.
00:03:49.580 Of course, we already have the bleeding hearts on the left in Canada saying that they won't support.
00:03:56.520 And I guess so much for elbows up.
00:03:58.760 And we're going to show the Americans by being, you know, having Canadian solidarity and approving as many projects as possible.
00:04:04.940 Mark Carney and the Elbows Up crowd saying that we're going to turn into the biggest energy superpower in the world.
00:04:12.600 So much for that.
00:04:13.680 We already have the Premier of British Columbia, Soy Boy, David Eby.
00:04:19.260 And here's what he had to say about Alberta's push for a pipeline.
00:04:24.180 Let's listen in.
00:04:25.020 To put that Tanker-Bannett threat, it's not just a threat to our pristine coast that so many British Columbians, including myself, value.
00:04:32.880 But it is a direct economic threat to the kind of economy that we're trying to build in the country here.
00:04:38.800 And so when I've said, let's cross that bridge, when we come to it, you know, we'll see what the Premier comes up with.
00:04:44.320 I'm being polite.
00:04:46.940 I am being polite.
00:04:49.040 There is no project.
00:04:50.680 There is no bridge to cross unless the Albertan government and the federal Canadian government are committing billions of taxpayer dollars to build this project.
00:05:00.460 And if that is the plan, then they should be transparent about it.
00:05:04.700 Don't mistake my politeness or weakness on protecting our economy and our coast.
00:05:11.960 Oh, listen to the tough guy.
00:05:14.960 Oh, my goodness. 1.00
00:05:16.280 He's a dumb mistake. 1.00
00:05:18.260 My politeness for weakness. 1.00
00:05:20.160 What politeness?
00:05:21.940 What politeness?
00:05:23.320 You've been blocking Alberta resources at every single turn.
00:05:28.340 Every single chance you get, like the socialist liberal that you are, you've been against Alberta energy.
00:05:35.300 Alberta energy while importing all kinds of things from China and other communist dictatorships overseas.
00:05:43.460 But Alberta energy?
00:05:44.820 No, thanks.
00:05:45.460 We don't want any of that Alberta, dirty Alberta oil in our lands here. 0.76
00:05:51.940 Alberta doesn't have access to the coast. 1.00
00:05:53.580 And you'd think that in a functioning country, that wouldn't be a problem because we have a west coast.
00:06:01.220 We have a north coast.
00:06:03.900 We have an east coast.
00:06:06.000 But Alberta has been blocked at every single turn.
00:06:09.020 They cancelled Energy East, which would see an Alberta pipeline go all the way to the east coast because Quebec was against it, among other special interest groups.
00:06:22.740 They blocked Northern Gateway, which was a pipeline that was supposed to go to the northwest coast of British Columbia.
00:06:32.520 And then Biden in 2020, I believe.
00:06:36.640 2020, Biden killed Keystone XL.
00:06:40.660 The Alberta government seems poised today to announce a deal with Enbridge and some other major companies to put forward a pipeline proposal, an oil pipeline.
00:06:48.920 Fortunately for you, I think it's not going to go to Quebec.
00:06:50.900 It's going to go to BC.
00:06:51.720 You've been critical of the Alberta government before.
00:06:54.220 What do you make of them going forward?
00:06:55.540 Let's imagine that Quebec is an independent and free country.
00:06:59.860 We will go on the world stages to say that Alberta is destroying the environment of the whole planet. 0.98
00:07:07.580 So I will say the same thing.
00:07:09.460 But when you have your own fellow Canadians, your own fellow Canadians block your energy resources and your ability to bring it to the export markets, that just hits different.
00:07:26.340 What kind of country are we?
00:07:27.880 Maybe that's what Danielle Smith is trying to expose. 1.00
00:07:32.720 And here we have a clip where Premier Danielle Smith is basically asked about how British Columbia is already against it.
00:07:39.860 Well, the government of British Columbia is already against the pipeline proposal.
00:07:43.320 Let's hear what she had to say about it.
00:07:46.900 I will continue, as I said, to build the coalition of partners who are going to be on board with this.
00:07:53.240 But this is a Canada project.
00:07:55.180 And this is a test of whether Canada works as a country.
00:07:59.260 Because if we can't build with the collaboration of the federal government and between provinces, if it's everybody gets to get their products going to market except Alberta, that's not a country.
00:08:10.260 A country is one where we support each other.
00:08:12.260 And I think Canadians are there.
00:08:13.860 And I hope that we can get more and more politicians to get there, too.
00:08:17.500 This is exactly why I said that Danielle might be playing 3D chess. 1.00
00:08:20.560 I mean, she's making the case like, look, I'm just trying to build a pipeline that will not only benefit Alberta, which happens to be a part of Canada, at least on paper, it will benefit the rest of Canada, a country that is hurting financially, a country that needs a W from whatever it comes from.
00:08:38.760 We need a W. We need a win here.
00:08:41.280 This country is falling apart financially.
00:08:44.940 And this is not PJ speaking.
00:08:47.660 This is the government itself telling us that the country is in deep, deep trouble.
00:08:51.940 I don't know if you guys watched the video I put out two or three days ago talking about how the parliamentary budget officer, this is an officer of the government, said that Canada is in such rough shape, it doesn't have two years to fix this issue.
00:09:07.220 It needs to be fixed now.
00:09:08.860 We need investment now.
00:09:10.860 We need development now.
00:09:12.940 Or this country is going to collapse economically.
00:09:15.880 Go and watch that video.
00:09:17.840 I'm going to leave the link here somewhere.
00:09:19.800 And then you have governments from other provinces blocking development.
00:09:26.980 You know how much money that will generate not only for Alberta but for the rest of Canada?
00:09:31.700 If I had it my way, if I had it my way, Alberta would separate and become an independent country.
00:09:36.960 And then we can negotiate with Canada for coastal access.
00:09:41.480 They won't give us coastal access.
00:09:42.900 Maybe we will negotiate with the Americans. 0.96
00:09:44.460 They've been a lot friendlier.
00:09:46.220 They've been a lot more open to making deals.
00:09:50.280 That's why we have a lot more pipelines to south of the border than we have within Canada, which is crazy to say.
00:09:58.160 It's a lot easier to build a pipeline from Alberta into the United States to access markets than it is to build a pipeline just to the next province over to the west, to British Columbia.
00:10:09.260 Maybe Danielle Smith knows exactly what she's doing. 1.00
00:10:14.100 Maybe we're all getting ahead of ourselves and she's playing 3D chess here. 0.89
00:10:19.100 She's showing all those who are sitting in the middle, who are not all the way on board with Alberta independence, showing them, look, I'm trying.
00:10:27.700 I'm trying here.
00:10:29.400 And they don't care.
00:10:30.720 They're blocking every single attempt I'm making, even if it benefits the country, not just Alberta.
00:10:38.460 Other provinces get their projects approved, but not Alberta.
00:10:43.540 But when it comes to taking wealth from us and transferring it to those provinces that block our progress, they're more than happy.
00:10:51.280 They come, you know, they come with their hands out.
00:10:54.580 Maybe she's playing 3D chess.
00:10:56.260 So here's a clip from an interview Premier Smith did with the CBC, where she said she doesn't know what the consequences of a no will be, referring to the pipeline being denied by the federal liberal government.
00:11:15.680 Let's take a listen.
00:11:16.740 Quick question, because I know you got a jet.
00:11:18.520 The plan is to submit something to the major projects office by the spring of next year.
00:11:23.060 This is beyond when you were hoping to have movement on the laws, which was this was last month.
00:11:28.280 Now it was by the middle of September.
00:11:29.520 You're hoping to see some change.
00:11:30.920 So how quickly from the spring of 2026 do you expect to have an answer from the federal government and a sense of whether it's yea or nay?
00:11:39.240 Well, I would hope that I'd have a preliminary answer very soon.
00:11:42.400 I mean, I want this to be on the project list by November.
00:11:45.320 We have some work that we need to do to make sure that we scope it out and understand what the route would be, what the end point would be.
00:11:51.900 And that is going to just take a little bit of technical work.
00:11:55.460 But we should have a pretty good indication about whether there's a yes or a no.
00:11:59.180 And I have to say, I don't know what the consequences of no might be.
00:12:02.760 If everyone else is allowed to build projects except Alberta, then that's a real problem. 1.00
00:12:07.040 Then we're not acting like a country.
00:12:08.640 I have supported every premier in every one of their aspirations and their desire to continue to expand their economy on all fronts.
00:12:15.620 I think Alberta just wants a little bit of support from our fellow premiers because I think we already have it from Canadians.
00:12:21.740 In our polling that we've seen, 75 percent of Canadians believe that we need to build more pipelines, get our product to market.
00:12:28.600 So I feel like we've got the people on our side.
00:12:30.520 And we just have to maybe do a little bit more work to get some of the politicians on our side.
00:12:34.320 But this is the right decision.
00:12:35.600 This would be the right pathway.
00:12:36.640 This is what Canada needs and it's what our province needs.
00:12:39.220 I'm telling you guys, this lady might be playing 3D chess. 1.00
00:12:42.840 Do you hear the wording she used?
00:12:44.340 I don't know what the consequences of a no will be.
00:12:51.180 Alberta has been supporting other provinces in their projects that they have, in their infrastructure projects, energy projects.
00:13:00.940 And we only expect other provinces to support us back.
00:13:05.120 She's basically making the case for independence, people. 0.95
00:13:08.420 This is what she's doing.
00:13:09.840 I believe this lady is playing 3D chess here. 1.00
00:13:11.940 I think she's playing a very intelligent game.
00:13:16.280 But I also might be wrong.
00:13:18.400 I may be wrong.
00:13:19.420 Maybe she's just pandering. 0.92
00:13:21.080 Maybe she's begging for a pipeline to save her political career because Albertans are running out of patience fast. 1.00
00:13:27.960 But maybe, just maybe, she's just making the case for Alberta independence.
00:13:34.100 Look, we support everybody.
00:13:36.640 Not only financially, but literally morally and generally we're there for other people and their projects.
00:13:44.700 And we've been there.
00:13:45.500 And all we're asking is for them to do the same.
00:13:48.580 And they're not.
00:13:49.560 So I don't know what the consequences of a no will be.
00:13:53.100 And she's doing it on the record.
00:13:55.300 That's the thing.
00:13:56.400 She's doing all of this very publicly.
00:13:58.520 People will see, those sitting on the fence that are not completely sold on Alberta independence, her efforts to try to get some sort of support and consensus.
00:14:09.580 And all we'll see is Saskatchewan supporting Alberta and Alberta energy.
00:14:16.180 What do you think that'll do for independence?
00:14:19.580 At least for those who are willing to listen.
00:14:21.600 Those sitting on the fence.
00:14:24.120 Those who are not part of that crowd that we will never win over.
00:14:27.500 Because you just can't win over the elbows up crowd. 0.75
00:14:31.180 Those people are brainwashed. 0.53
00:14:32.740 They'll never listen. 0.99
00:14:33.780 They just don't listen.
00:14:35.000 They got their preconceived notions.
00:14:36.760 They're not open to changing their minds.
00:14:39.500 Don't waste your time.
00:14:40.780 All right.
