In this episode, I talk about why I believe Alberta's premier, Danielle Smith, is playing 3D chess with the federal government, and why I think she knows exactly what she's doing. I also talk about the consequences of a "No" vote in a referendum on Alberta's independence from Canada.

00:00:00.000 Northern Gateway Pipeline. Cancelled. Energy East Pipeline. Cancelled. New oil sands expansions. Cancelled. Hundreds of billions in investment capital for new ports, pipelines, and projects. All gone.
00:00:16.040 I think what she's doing is she recognizes that most Albertans right now would not support independence and that she needs to do absolutely everything in her power possible to try and reset the relationship with Ottawa structurally, policy-wise, to allow Albertans to achieve their potential and prosperity and so on in the next generation.
00:00:39.500 And she needs to go through every one of those steps because if it's the case that Ottawa is not prepared to change and want to keep putting its knee on our neck, more and more Albertans need to see that.
00:00:49.780 They need to know that every avenue was exhausted before they're going to be prepared to vote in favor of a referendum. So I think it's an important process that we're on.
00:00:57.720 Maybe Danielle Smith knows exactly what she's doing. Maybe we're all getting ahead of ourselves and she's playing 3D chess here. 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.
00:01:14.480 I'm trying here. I'm trying here. And they don't care. They're blocking every single attempt I'm making, even if it benefits the country, not just Alberta. Other provinces get their projects approved, but not Alberta.
00:01:31.340 But when it comes to taking wealth from us and transferring it to those provinces that block our progress, they're more than happy. They come, you know, they come with their hands out. Maybe she's playing 3D chess.

00:01:54.320 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. Let's take a listen.
00:02:13.420 It's a quick question because I know you got a jet. The plan is to submit something to the major projects office by the spring of next year.
00:02:20.220 This is beyond when you were hoping to have movement on the laws, which was this was last month.
00:02:25.300 Now it was by the middle of September. You're hoping to see some change.
00:02:27.960 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?
00:02:35.300 Well, I would hope that I'd have a preliminary answer very soon. I mean, I want this to be on this on the project list by November.
00:02:42.100 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.
00:02:49.400 And that is going to just take a little bit of technical work. But we should have a pretty good indication about whether there's a yes or a no.
00:02:56.180 And I have to say, I don't know what the consequences of no might be.
00:02:59.580 If everyone else is allowed to build projects except Alberta, then that's a real problem. 1.00
00:03:04.020 But then we're not acting like a country. I have supported every premier in every one of their aspirations and their desire to continue to expand their economy on all fronts.
00:03:12.860 I think Alberta just wants a little bit of support from our fellow premiers, because I think we already have it from Canadians in our in our polling that we've seen.
00:03:21.160 Seventy five percent of Canadians believe that we need to build more pipelines, get our product to market.
00:03:25.280 So I feel like we've got the people on our side and we just have to maybe do a little bit more work to get some of the politicians on our side.
00:03:31.220 But this is the right decision. This would be the right pathway. This is what Canada needs and it's what our province needs.
00:03:36.240 I'm telling you guys, this lady might be playing 3D chess. Do you hear the wording she used? 1.00
00:03:42.620 I don't know what the consequences of a no will be.
00:03:46.740 Alberta, Alberta, Alberta has been supporting other provinces and in their projects that they have, in their infrastructure projects, energy projects.
00:03:57.680 And we only expect other provinces to support us back.
00:04:01.880 It's basically making the case for independence, people.
00:04:05.520 This is what she's doing. I believe this lady is playing 3D chess here. 1.00
00:04:08.960 I think she's playing a very intelligent game, but I also might be wrong.
00:04:15.400 I may be wrong. Maybe she's just pandering. 0.95
00:04:18.120 Maybe she's begging for a pipeline to save her political career because Albertans are running out of patience fast. 1.00
00:04:25.940 But maybe, just maybe, she's just making the case for Alberta independence.
00:04:29.820 Look, we support everybody.
00:04:33.640 Not only financially, but literally, morally, and generally, we're there for other people and their projects.
00:04:41.720 And we've been there.
00:04:43.400 And all we're asking is for them to do the same, and they're not.
00:04:46.700 So I don't know what the consequences of a no will be.
00:04:50.120 And she's doing it on the record.
00:04:52.300 That's the thing.
00:04:53.420 She's doing all of this very publicly.
00:04:55.520 People will see, those sitting on the fence that are not completely sold on Alberta independence,
00:05:01.120 her efforts to try to get some sort of support and consensus.
00:05:06.600 And all we'll see is Saskatchewan supporting Alberta and Alberta energy.
00:05:14.320 What do you think that'll do for independence?
00:05:16.560 At least for those who are willing to listen, those sitting on the fence, 0.79
00:05:21.100 those who are not part of that crowd that we will never win over.
00:05:24.380 Because you just can't win over the elbows-up crowd. 0.81
00:05:28.200 Those people are brainwashed.
00:05:29.940 They'll never listen. 0.99
00:05:30.800 They just don't listen.
00:05:32.020 They got their preconceived notions.
00:05:33.820 They're not open to changing their minds.
00:05:36.480 Don't waste your time.
00:05:37.700 The other referendum petition has to go before the court to get affirmed.
00:05:41.780 And I gather that's happening in November.
00:05:44.060 And if there isn't movement, then there is a mechanism that I believe different groups have decided to take on
00:05:50.360 to try to put it to the people.
00:05:51.960 And so I'm hoping that doesn't happen.
00:05:53.840 I'm hoping that I'm able to convince Albertans that we have made enough progress with Canada,
00:05:59.120 that Canada can work and we can have a new relationship.
00:06:02.020 But it does require that Prime Minister Carney make some serious actions.
00:06:09.180 We have to get a bitumen pipeline.
00:06:10.820 We have to get rid of the nine bad laws.
00:06:12.500 We have to restore our business investment climate.
00:06:14.880 And as you mentioned, that's my short list.
00:06:16.540 So there's a lot more things on that list.
00:06:18.080 But that would be a good demonstration that we're undoing a lot of the damage that's been done to this province over the last 10 years.
00:06:23.860 And November 16th is the date of the Great Cup.
00:06:26.460 So that's the new line.
00:06:27.740 The State Department had a meeting, a second high-level meeting, in Washington, I think on Monday.
00:06:38.740 And our administration is eager to recognize Alberta as an independent state or country.
00:06:45.180 Can you give me any insight on what is happening on this side of the border?
00:06:50.280 And what does that mean with our relationship with the nutjob parts of Canada? 0.95
00:06:55.120 Well, sure I can.
00:06:55.980 I received a briefing from that delegation yesterday.
00:06:58.840 You know, I think the Trump administration is very concerned about what's happening in Canada.
00:07:03.340 My understanding from the meetings that have occurred, that the Trump administration officials have indicated that the U.S. would recognize a vote by the people of Alberta to become independent.
00:07:15.320 So that's very important to us.
00:07:17.060 We expect the vote to occur in 2026 sometime around this time next year.
00:07:22.580 And I think the Trump administration also recognizes you guys have, right above your border in Montana, the third largest reserve of oil and gas in the world.
00:07:36.320 Look at the power of that, the energy independence.
00:07:39.920 It takes you from an energy superpower to a mega superpower.
00:07:44.820 And then we're completely culturally aligned.
00:07:47.500 So I think there's a recognition.
00:07:49.280 And Canada's, the leftists in Ottawa, are being global disruptors.
00:07:53.880 Keith, please stay in touch with us.
00:07:56.000 Anything that we can do to help.
00:07:58.340 But we, I want to make sure America understands, you know, the world that we are right on the brink of losing or changing and how dangerous these times are if we don't all keep our level heads.
00:08:11.100 And I've been watching you with great, great interest on what's happening.
00:08:14.980 God bless you.
00:08:15.800 Thank you.
00:08:16.180 Thank you for everything you do.
00:08:17.900 Please pass on to your Canadian friends.
