00:00:00.000 the alberta independence train is on the move and it's got the liberals here in canada losing their

00:00:05.580 minds let's dive in hey everybody it's pj we've got breaking news for you today straight from the

00:00:15.280 alberta prosperity project which is the organization leading the effort for alberta to become

00:00:20.220 independent from canada they just came back from washington dc where they reportedly met with senior

00:00:26.300 members of the trump administration who reiterated their support for an independent alberta they also

00:00:32.920 talked about an economic partnership where there is zero tariffs zero tariffs on both sides of the

00:00:38.720 border meanwhile president trump is talking about making canada the 51st state in a recent speech

00:00:44.760 we'll be covering this and other important topics you won't want to miss but before we start do me

00:00:50.740 a favor and double check if you're still subscribed if you are please click the bell icon so you never

00:00:56.700 miss an update on the alberta independence movement let's get into the video so this right here is a

00:01:01.820 tweet put out by jeffrey rath who is the legal counsel and co-founder of the alberta prosperity project

00:01:09.180 and it reads breaking washington dc mitch sylvester dennis modry and jeffrey rath met with very senior

00:01:18.600 representatives of the u.s administration on monday in washington dc recognition of alberta as an

00:01:26.440 independent country and completely free trade with the usa with zero tariffs on all goods and services

00:01:33.040 are all on the table when albertans vote to leave canada it's interesting that we have more support for

00:01:40.480 hashtag alberta independence from the united states than we have from an alberta premier with a super

00:01:47.480 majority of our party with a super majority of our party members supporting alberta independence

00:01:53.560 he's referring to obviously premier danielle smith who has been kind of playing the middle in all of

00:02:00.900 this kind of sometimes supporting independence by making the referendum vote more attainable by

00:02:08.040 lowering the amount of signatures required and increasing the amount of time to collect set

00:02:12.140 signatures but also sometimes saying things like well i'm going to do everything i can to

00:02:17.280 avoid an independence actually happening which a lot of people on her base on her voter base

00:02:26.260 don't see with a favorable view and then he posted a picture here saying independence protects their

00:02:33.940 future you have a child for those of you listening and maybe not watching the child holding an alberta flag

00:02:41.540 over the prairies overlooking the beautiful rocky mountains and the oil pumps of alberta very

00:02:50.580 characteristic of our beautiful province and you have the article from the western standard

00:02:58.580 which is an alberta newspaper which reads alberta independence on the table in talks with u.s officials

00:03:07.220 jeffrey rath mitch sylvester and dr dennis modry of the alberta prosperity project were in washington dc on

00:03:17.640 monday to discuss alberton independence with cabinet level u.s officials so this was at the cabinet level

00:03:25.200 not just staffers this was the second round of talks the app has had with members of the trump

00:03:33.720 administration after a first meeting took place back in april yeah they met with u.s officials

00:03:40.540 reportedly back in spring earlier this year and it's and quote we wanted to talk further about things

00:03:48.460 that albertans would be interested in knowing from a due diligence perspective with regard to

00:03:55.580 independence wrath the app's legal counsel told the western standard according to wrath this week's

00:04:04.220 meeting marked a significant step forward quote we had very productive meeting we had a very productive

00:04:11.660 meeting at a very senior level with the trump administration one of the people that was in our

00:04:16.560 meeting left to go directly to the oval office end quote he said stating that the level of the meeting

00:04:23.740 is an indication of the strong support from the united states for alberta independence he declined to

00:04:31.260 disclose which officials attended saying that both parties had agreed to confidentiality you know some

00:04:38.420 people will criticize that and they'll say that well why wouldn't you reveal the name it's because

00:04:44.060 this is all early stages that that that's my opinion on this entire thing this is early stages right the

00:04:50.860 united states is obviously the most powerful country on earth and if president trump decided you know

00:04:56.460 what i'm going to reveal what we've been talking about with them and who has been talking and all

00:05:00.220 that he could but due to the fact that this is early stages and alberta still a part of canada

00:05:08.140 it would be unlikely for them to show their cards this early to say oh secretary rubio marco rubio is

00:05:17.180 the one who's been meeting with the alberta prosperity project right like it would create controversy that

00:05:24.540 isn't necessary at this time we need to have a referendum vote once that happens or or once that

00:05:32.860 gets closer i presume personally this is pj here speaking i presume more international attention is

00:05:39.980 going to be given to this topic there's already plenty of international attention when it comes to what's

00:05:45.980 happening in alberta and the possible balkanization of canada which in my opinion is completely inevitable

00:05:52.700 canada will not exist as it is today in the next five to ten years ten years is is a stretch i think

00:05:59.340 five years is it's it's going to be the time that it takes for canada to turn into yugoslavia 2.0

00:06:06.460 so that's why i believe he hasn't uh they haven't disclosed who exactly it is that they're talking to

00:06:12.380 who we're meeting with it's just too early it's early stages still anyways back to the article wrath

00:06:18.220 said the discussions touched on what alberta would seek from the united states if independence were

00:06:24.380 achieved quote we're very interested in u.s recognition of alberta as an independent nation

00:06:31.020 state immediately upon the result of a successful referendum that is exactly what i was just talking

00:06:36.540 about this is when recognition talks are going to be public is upon a successful referendum and in

00:06:44.220 the lead up to said referendum once there's a date once votes are starting to be collected this is

00:06:51.020 when international attention is going to be mainstream because for the first time ever western

00:06:57.420 western canadian province because we've all heard about quebec wanting to separate from canada they've

00:07:01.660 done that multiple times in the 90s and prior to that in the 80s but a western canadian province

00:07:08.060 has never actually taken it that further and alberta is at the doorstep of that back to the article

00:07:17.180 he added that free trade was central to the meeting saying the principles of reciprocity in the

00:07:24.380 context of a future alberta u.s trade agreement and the possibility of establishing a common market

00:07:31.020 between the united states and alberta which would see zero tariffs on all goods and services on both

00:07:37.260 sides of the border was openly discussed quote they were very interested in the process and where we

00:07:44.700 were in terms of moving things forward wrath said of his american counterparts so this is huge this is yet

00:07:53.420 another meeting that the alberta prosperity project has had with high level senior officials

00:08:00.860 in the trump administration and here we have president trump i believe it was yesterday where he again

00:08:07.260 reiterated his interest in canada becoming the 51st state and let's take a listen countries with it we

00:08:15.580 don't have it ourselves and canada called me a couple of weeks ago they want to be part of it

00:08:22.540 to which i said well why don't you just join our country you become 51 become the 51st state

00:08:28.460 and you get it for free so i don't know if that made a big impact but it does make a lot of sense

00:08:35.580 it actually because they're having a hard time up there he's referring to the golden dome uh reportedly

00:08:41.980 mark carney said that they that canada wants to be a part of the u.s missile defense system called the

00:08:50.460 golden dome and donald trump has told them repeatedly just become the 51st state and it's going to be

00:08:56.940 completely free for those of you who do not know this fact the canadian u.s relationship when it

00:09:04.380 comes to the fans is incredibly one-sided meaning the united states has to basically provide the

00:09:10.860 fans for canada anyone who faces reality knows that if it wasn't because the united states provides basic

00:09:18.380 protection to canada there would be chinese warships in our north right now way up in the territories

00:09:26.940 there'd be chinese warships or russian warships right now they don't do it because they know that

00:09:31.740 if they do that not only is canada a part of nato but it's also a part of norad it's america's closest

00:09:39.260 closest ally although that's changing very rapidly they know that from a u.s national security

00:09:46.060 perspective being that alaska is literally right next to canada's north and the u.s has a very strong

00:09:51.660 interest in the north hence the interest in greenland as well the u.s would be defending

00:09:58.780 the north on behalf of canada immediately but also for its own interest and that's what's been for for

00:10:05.020 many years canada previously used to you know somewhat punch above its weight in the sense that they

00:10:10.940 did contribute even though they never contributed monetarily a ton there were many brave soldiers

00:10:16.620 who did important important work but nowadays you don't even have that there are some soldiers out

00:10:23.260 there but they're being neglected by the federal government they're being mistreated and morale is low

00:10:29.900 in the in the canadian armed forces and then investment has been has also been neglected over the

00:10:35.660 years and trump knows that then you have this article from global news alberta premier danielle

00:10:43.820 smith government says it is planning to introduce legislation that would allow it to ignore international

00:10:50.460 agreements signed by ottawa this is something that i talked about on this channel previously

00:10:57.100 basically this is another indicator that the province of alberta is moving forward with getting as much

00:11:04.860 distance between canada and alberta as possible the province is basically saying look you can sign

00:11:11.100 all the treaties all the agreements all the accords you want internationally we will not be a part of

00:11:17.820 them we are not going to be a part of anything you sign with the united nations with the world economic

00:11:23.820 forum with the world health organization and any of those multinational globalist organizations if that

00:11:30.300 doesn't indicate that alberta is wanting to represent itself as a country i don't know what does i've

00:11:38.300 already read the article previously but here's a little snapchat of it alberta legislating authority to

00:11:43.420 ignore international agreements signed by canada that is very important wording there ignoring

00:11:49.740 international agreements signed by canada ignoring the federal government's commitments internationally i don't

00:11:55.020 know what else indicates that look we're looking to just do our own thing leave us alone and that's

00:12:02.700 where the article goes then there's the reality of alberta leaving every other province in canada behind

00:12:11.980 there's a chart here as you guys can see this is posted by rice of alberta shout out to them

00:12:17.740 uh that shows net provincial migration of young workers young workers are flocking to alberta

00:12:26.700 particularly after the liberals won the last election because they know that the only place

00:12:32.140 in canada that has any hope at this point i mean you can throw saskatchewan in there as well they have

00:12:37.740 some common sense in that province but they know that the number one province economically and and that

00:12:43.100 has any future and that has any semblance of western principles and western prosperity and hard work

00:12:48.940 is alberta and look at this chart right here you can see at the very bottom is ontario and it makes

00:12:53.660 sense if you live in alberta you'll see ontario plates every everywhere ontario plates and bc british

00:13:00.220 columbia plates it's like you guys south of the border say you're in utah or you're in idaho and you

00:13:05.420 see california plates all over you're in florida and you see new york plates all over the place that's

00:13:10.220 the reality here in alberta we see ontario plates um british columbia plates all the time i've even

00:13:18.060 seen quebec plates quebec is really far from it's like a two-day drive and they're all over the place

00:13:23.500 out here so ontario lost the most workers this is workers this is people that are between 25 and 44

00:13:30.700 years old as of 2024 uh manitoba was the second one losing the most saskatchewan surprisingly because

00:13:37.100 saskatchewan is doing overall okay it's like after alberta saskatchewan's right there they lost

00:13:42.220 a bunch of workers probably to alberta due to its proximity right we don't we have the lowest taxes

00:13:47.580 in canada too there's no sales tax here so that that's also a factor quebec unsurprisingly lost a

00:13:53.100 bunch of people british columbia then you have all the maritimes the little provinces and then you have

00:13:57.980 new brunswick which gained a little bit of people it mostly insignificant but they did gain they didn't

00:14:04.860 lose people uh these are all way out on the east coast just north of maine and vermont and such

00:14:12.380 so it makes sense i mean albertans are just trying to protect their legacy the legacy of the people

00:14:19.100 who founded this land which were hard-working cowboys homesteaders oil men farmers this these were the

00:14:29.820 people the people who work the land work with their hands it's just a completely different culture

00:14:34.540 and i say it often on this channel canada is going to end up the way of yugoslavia canada's

00:14:40.380 already more dead than yugoslavia was and the thing that really breaks countries apart is when

00:14:46.220 you no longer have things in common when there's just the divisions are irreconcilable you just can't

00:14:52.300 it's like you know it's completely different people you go to ontario and they're completely

00:14:56.380 different it's just completely different mentalities there's very little in common and hockey it just

00:15:01.260 won't cut it anymore here's a video that talks about exactly what i was just saying here from

00:15:06.700 keith wilson and the other point i would make is you know you need a level of homogeneity you need a

00:15:12.700 level of commonness you need a level of shared vision a shared understanding a shared mission

00:15:17.980 to have a nation and we have that in alberta we have that from wainwright to pincher crete from

00:15:23.900 grand prairie to medicine hat hard-working get knocked over dust yourself off and get back at

00:15:29.740 it right just like the homesteaders and everybody else that's part of our culture that's not the

00:15:34.220 culture of of uh central canada i've spent a lot of time there and the focus there is about what the

00:15:42.380 government's going to do for them and how the government's going to solve their problems albertans

00:15:47.900 are interested in why governments are in their way and how are they going to get out of their way so

00:15:53.740 they can get done so we simply don't have the homogeneity to have a viable country in my view

00:16:01.020 you you need some commonality and as time goes on it's becoming increasingly apparent that we don't

00:16:06.700 have it and i'm going to leave you guys with a little bit of humor here this is from alberta

00:16:11.660 memes uh shout out to them on twitter alberta memes or burda memes i love this one i got a

00:16:18.060 chuckle out of me here chuckle uh you got homer here saying we don't want to leave canada and then

00:16:27.260 you got lenny saying what did he say i don't know something about swallowing tylenol

00:16:32.540 he drives away just he's probably like hey yeah so uh so that's where we're at here in alberta

00:16:44.300 independence train is moving it's moving uh i say to people all the time in my comment section which

00:16:49.740 by the way if you have a comment i try to read as many of them as i can i try to reply to as many of

00:16:55.820 them as i can uh shout out to all the channel members who support this channel by the way thank

00:17:02.140 you guys so much uh couldn't do this without your support but leave a comment below in the comment

00:17:08.300 section i tell people all the time that there's a lot happening behind the scenes there's a lot of

00:17:13.340 work being done by the grassroots there's a lot of volunteers hundreds and hundreds of volunteers doing

00:17:18.700 doing work tirelessly to make this happen uh canada is unsustainable as a country and this is not just

00:17:27.740 me saying it the their own guy in charge of the budget the parliamentary budget officer said this

00:17:33.340 country's unsustainable we're at the at the precipice literally we're about to fall and and it'll be it'll be

00:17:40.380 irreversible damage and alberta can either go down with the sinking ship or it can save itself

00:17:47.660 and alberta is worth saving this is pretty much the best part of canada right now is

00:17:53.820 it's the prairies alberta and saskatchewan there's also the territories up north um beautiful country

00:18:00.620 up there but politically speaking alberta is leading the way to to save whatever remains of canada and

00:18:08.220 it'll probably be a new better improved actually free republic of western canada or whatever they want

00:18:15.340 to call it it's been pj peace hey if you've made it this far thank you so much for watching if you'd
