The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Carney's Plan IS DEAD - Eby attacks Alberta Pipeline over Separatist Boogieman!

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.

00:00:06.480 I think it's pretty clear at this point that Prime Minister Mark Carney doesn't actually want to

00:00:11.580 build a pipeline, to which some people will say, well, he keeps signing pipeline agreements. He

00:00:17.180 keeps saying yes to a pipeline. Of course he wants to build a pipeline. No, he doesn't. If you wanted

00:00:23.180 to build a pipeline would you be dumb enough to give veto power to bc premier david eby who just 0.99

00:00:30.560 attacked alberta premier daniel smith as a separatist as this lame excuse not to actually 0.97

00:00:36.060 pursue a pipeline check this out premier just now we talked about separatist premiers uh how much of

00:00:42.300 that comment was aimed at alberta premier daniel smith uh well i think the reality is that there

00:00:48.820 is a very uh real and present uh threat of a referendum on separatism in alberta enabled by

00:00:54.980 decisions made by the albertan government i'm sorry you can't say that there's a threat of a

00:01:00.340 referendum there's no threat in a referendum it's just a referendum unless you're just saying that

00:01:06.180 there's a threat of democracy happening in alberta the funny thing about all this is the referendum

00:01:11.380 is not likely to succeed if it goes forward but all these people keep acting like it's the end

00:01:16.820 end of the world if people get to have a democratic choice and are able to say yes or no to

00:01:21.520 independence in Alberta. Really, again, David Eby is just doing this as an excuse to get into a petty

00:01:27.540 fight with Daniel Smith because he thinks it will benefit his personal popularity numbers in British

00:01:32.820 Columbia and keep his own party from ousting him as leader because that is, in fact, a very strong

00:01:38.920 possibility right now. He's so completely bungled the DRIPA sort of issue that his own party knows

00:01:46.440 that they can't simply just walk back on that one they probably have to replace the premier

00:01:51.960 who was responsible for bringing drippa in because before david eby was the premier

00:01:57.000 he was the attorney general and that was one of his decisions to bring in drippa at the time

00:02:02.440 and i believe that that is part of why we are seeing the federal government engage

00:02:07.720 differently with alberta than other premiers across the country bluntly we cannot have bad

00:02:12.920 behavior decide who gets engaged with by the federal government we need to hold this country

00:02:17.400 together we need to i'm sorry but alberta has been disproportionately not getting engagement with the

00:02:23.160 federal government even under mark carney and now he's going to like engage in this conspiracy theory

00:02:29.560 where danielle smith is only having mark carney sign meaningless documents about the pipeline

00:02:34.680 because she's threatening separatism which she is not she mentions that it's a growing issue in

00:02:40.360 Alberta. Now, it probably still can't win a referendum. I think the support's around 30%.

00:02:45.480 But that's still significant compared to what it was probably before Justin Trudeau was around.

00:02:50.760 But he is going to claim that this is why Carney is signing, again, agreements for a potential

00:02:58.600 pipeline that David Eby gets veto over as well as First Nation bans. If anything, that sounds like

00:03:05.560 bc is the one being pandered to but the problem is that david eby is not used to not being pandered to

00:03:12.120 100 and he's having a meltdown over it fight for this country every single chance we get

00:03:17.480 we need to stand up for canada and we need to make sure we're supporting every province and

00:03:22.200 territory with equal respect and that is what will provide a unified country and that is something

00:03:27.560 that uh the british colombians need to see from the federal government and and i'm counting on

00:03:31.080 seeing that from prime minister carney so now i have to i want to move on quickly to another clip

00:03:36.760 that then came up on the cbc shortly after that press conference because we had former ndp mla

00:03:43.000 maybe he was also an mp at one point nathan cullen went on to propagandize against alberta

00:03:49.400 which the cbc is absolutely happy to do because they don't do not want to see alberta get a

00:03:54.200 pipeline and again the funny thing is i have to talk about people not wanting alberta have a

00:04:00.440 pipeline even though nothing in the agreement that mark carney has signed will result in alberta

00:04:06.440 getting a pipeline but the problem again is that i'm having to deal with people who actually think

00:04:11.320 this is a strong possibility while i know it's not a strong possibility maybe this is all just

00:04:17.000 mark carney's plan too that he's going to have mainstream media just keep battering danielle

00:04:22.200 smith shortly after the agreement is signed giving him an excuse in maybe six months time to say

00:04:28.280 Danielle Smith has been just threatening the country's sovereignty too much. 0.97

00:04:31.920 I'm sorry, we can't have a pipeline anymore.

00:04:35.200 I'm not sure if that's going on, but this is the only explanations I have

00:04:39.020 because the entire situation makes no sense.

00:04:41.580 We have an agreement that gives a veto to British Columbia

00:04:44.440 on whether a pipeline actually happens,

00:04:47.240 and David Eby is whining about a pipeline being built.

00:04:50.480 Well, he has the power to stop it.

00:04:52.400 First Nation bands also have the power to stop it.

00:04:54.440 And so you're freaked out that a separatist premier is about to get a pipeline?

00:04:58.880 I'd love to get a pipeline, but she's not a separatist, and we're not getting a pipeline

00:05:02.840 because David Eby's in charge of whether or not it happens or not.

00:05:06.240 Anyways, here is Mr. Nathan Cullen reacting to all of it.

00:05:10.580 I think the frustration that the premier of British Columbia is channeling on behalf of British Columbians

00:05:15.780 is that national policy is being set between two parties, Alberta and the federal government,

00:05:22.620 on on issues like carbon on methane on pipeline policies etc so carbon and methane are not

00:05:29.180 federal policies nathan it it's a non-issue it's an abstraction i'm sorry if anything creates carbon

00:05:37.640 emissions that we're allowed to like other provinces are allowed to cram down on the

00:05:41.980 province that it's coming from get out of here and again the whole idea that like oh well

00:05:48.540 that you like that the alberta government's threatening ottawa into giving it a fake 0.99

00:05:53.780 pipeline like my goodness this is the dumbest controversy the dumbest kind of thing to clutch 0.98

00:05:58.980 your pearls about you could find on methane on pipeline policies etc that's not the way this 0.98

00:06:05.260 country can work it's not it's not going to work i for those that have somehow this equation that

00:06:12.760 a single project is a determination of whether our country is functioning or not that's insane

00:06:18.400 and you can't negotiate with someone who puts a gun to your head and expect good outcomes because

00:06:22.780 they're just going to keep holding a gun to your head what what gun what guns danielle smith hold

00:06:27.180 it to mark carney said if anything i don't think that danielle smith has been playing hardball

00:06:32.580 enough i think she's been a little bit too conciliatory when it comes to what she's been

00:06:37.700 agreeing to in these uh things that she's signing i think that it's been a little bit too happy talk

00:06:43.820 around how Mark Carney is so much better than Justin

00:06:45.760 Trudeau. Okay, we'll believe it

00:06:47.740 when he actually does something, but let's

00:06:49.880 stop patting him on the back for having achieved

00:06:51.900 nothing so far.

00:06:54.180 It doesn't determine

00:06:55.700 whether the country is functioning,

00:06:57.740 if a single project goes through or not.

00:06:59.600 It does show that the country is

00:07:01.720 kind of broken. If Alberta

00:07:03.180 can never get one of its major projects done,

00:07:06.020 they'll kind of build other ones.

00:07:07.620 But if you want a pipeline, you know the main thing you want?

00:07:10.220 No. That does kind of

00:07:11.840 it's a broken country when depending on which province you are you can get stuff done or you

00:07:16.000 can't get stuff done but the problem is that nathan cullen determines whether the country's

00:07:20.640 functioning as long as like every province is favored ahead of alberta if alberta started

00:07:26.320 getting equal treatment he'd think the country himself was broken for the next thing and the

00:07:31.360 next thing and the next thing so there is a proposal on the table from the bc government

00:07:36.160 to canada to alberta to say hey if you want to increase capacity significantly on the pipeline

00:07:41.520 route that already exists let's talk there's been no engagement from alberta on that and the premier

00:07:46.880 has got finally he's got a good coin in saying that there's 88 billion dollars in major projects

00:07:52.080 that are happening right now real projects private money that's being directed at bc why would you go

00:07:58.160 and risk that particularly with first nations uh for the sake of a project that has no private

00:08:04.000 backer has risk that especially with first nations just say what you actually mean that first nation

00:08:10.480 bans would threaten to veto all these projects if you let a pipeline go through it sounds like

00:08:16.880 you're being held hostage at that point by the way uh you know not to be too much of a fear monger

00:08:22.720 here but that's basically what he just described and he's talking about whether or not the country

00:08:29.120 is broken at the same time he's admitting that first nations effectively have a legal veto over

00:08:35.520 projects and we can't upset them by proposing a pipeline we just have to propose like you know

00:08:41.020 limited lng projects limited new mining and then a bunch of random green energy projects and and we

00:08:48.920 can get them passed through like what are we talking about here come on people it's just so 0.91

00:08:54.880 pathetic that we're living in a country where it's considered like holding a gun to the ottawa's head 0.94

00:09:00.840 by Danielle Smith just mentioning that separatist sentiments are on the rise 0.98

00:09:05.280 and we should probably build a pipeline. 1.00

00:09:06.980 That's not her being a separatist.

00:09:08.880 She's just pointing out reality that like 10 years ago,

00:09:11.780 separatist sentiment was probably at like 10%, 15%.

00:09:15.040 Now it's above 30.

00:09:16.980 Nobody is sitting in the oil patch saying,

00:09:18.880 we'll put some cash on the table to see this thing through

00:09:20.960 and continue to weaken and change Canadian law bilaterally

00:09:25.960 between Canada and Alberta, excluding the other provinces

00:09:28.420 who obviously have an important voice in that conversation

00:09:31.520 if we're going to keep this country together

00:09:32.980 and not bend to the threat of separatism,

00:09:35.560 which, unfortunately, the Premier of Alberta has encouraged.

00:09:39.240 And it's not only the British Columbia NDP hacks

00:09:43.960 that are going after Daniel Smith as a separatist.

00:09:46.580 Of course, it's Daniel Smith's own local NDP opponent,

00:09:51.520 Alberta NDP leader Nahid Nenshi,

00:09:54.060 who's also been having a complete conniption over,

00:09:56.780 basically anything about Daniel Smith, he's constantly having a meltdown over nothing

00:10:04.160 happening. Daniel Smith could condemn separatism tomorrow and execute a separatist, you know,

00:10:10.700 by hanging them, and he would still call her a separatist. But here is Nahid Nenshi's new pitch 0.98

00:10:17.220 at going after Daniel Smith as, like, complicit in separatist data leaking.

00:10:23.060 So your personal data was just leaked online by a bunch of separatists.

00:10:26.540 This is just the latest in a long line of crises under Danielle Smith's law.

00:10:30.740 An affordability crisis, pandering to the separatists,

00:10:34.900 gerrymandering and trying to rig the next election, and now putting you at risk.

00:10:39.020 So apparently she is complicit with trying to leak your data with the Centurion Project,

00:10:47.720 which is just some small nothing third-party separatist group.

00:10:52.440 that ended up immediately getting investigated for all this but apparently she's not doing

00:10:56.820 enough even though the police are already on it and Alberta Elections Alberta is already

00:11:01.920 on it and it only involves the Centurion Project and the Republican Party of Alberta. Apparently

00:11:07.500 this requires more direct action from Danielle Smith and it shows that she's complicit with

00:11:13.400 them because what? Like again what's she actually supposed to do here? And then he moves on

00:11:18.320 to talk about, oh, we have an affordability crisis. No, Alberta is still the most affordable

00:11:22.780 province in the country in terms of the balance between job opportunities as well as an affordable

00:11:28.960 lifestyle. Alberta does very, very well. What was the other things he tried to cite there

00:11:34.720 as her big failures? I think he mentioned gerrymandering or just trying to rig the next

00:11:38.780 election. But look at this. An affordability crisis, pandering to the separatists.

00:11:44.940 pandering to the separatists and what's his what's his piece of evidence here alberta sovereignty

00:11:49.980 she said alberta sovereignty that is pandering to the separatists what's she supposed to say

00:11:55.260 not alberta sovereignty and that would be good we should have no alberta sovereignty and then

00:11:59.580 then she would be like oh my goodness good thing we're not pandering to the separatists 1.00

00:12:03.500 kerrymandering and trying to rig the next election like okay is does nancy just like a full-on 1.00

00:12:10.300 election denier here, and rigging the next election. No, they're not rigging the next

00:12:18.220 election. What happened was an independent body came up with a new map for the next Alberta

00:12:25.800 election, and despite the population going up, instead of opting to just add more seats that

00:12:31.760 would fall us more in line with where British Columbia is at in terms of MLAs, they were going

00:12:37.300 to just keep the amount of seats flat, but completely reduce, like eliminate two rural

00:12:43.020 ridings and replace it with more urban NDP ridings, which demonstrated that the independent

00:12:49.020 body was probably just trying to gerrymander an election victory for the NDP. The one that the

00:12:55.180 Alberta government, the MLAs themselves, came up with was far more fair. They just added two more

00:13:02.020 seats and they redistributed the territory in line with where that population growth has

00:13:07.280 been. That's all. Apparently, that's a big conspiracy theory in Nahid Nenshi's mind.

00:13:12.900 He's got nothing. He's a very deeply unpopular leader right now. People are wondering if he's

00:13:17.340 even going to make it to the next election. And he's increasingly engaging in just the most

00:13:23.600 insane conspiracy mongering. She's trying to rig the next election. She's also involved in data 0.98

00:13:29.540 leaks with the separatists. She's trying to pander to them too, of course. And affordability's bad,

00:13:34.520 even though it's like the best province in the country still for affordability the next election

00:13:39.160 and now putting you at risk three million of us have now had our most intimate personal information

00:13:45.400 leaked to separatists connected to danielson it puts us at risk of having our identities

00:13:50.600 and our finances stolen sometimes crises are by design that's the position of our government

00:13:56.440 sometimes they're because of the result of government incompetence well i was watching

00:14:00.200 social media that's what i do sometimes they just happen we need strong leadership in any of those

00:14:05.980 cases i don't even know one he just always looks like he's like some fish you know like

00:14:12.040 the blob fish or something he just has a weird way of holding his face it has nothing to even

00:14:16.620 do with how he looks it has to do with just the way he kind of holds his face and kind of like

00:14:20.980 he always does that weird thing whenever he's talking like he like unfurls his finger to point

00:14:24.780 to something like he and then she will be sitting there being like you know see the problem with

00:14:29.060 Daniel Smith, is that she is selling out our province to the separatists. Regardless, I'm done

00:14:36.180 mocking him. But do you notice that that commercial, and it's not all the way done, but I really doubt

00:14:43.220 that they're going to start showing evidence in the back last third of the video. There's no

00:14:48.200 evidence. There's never an actual example of something she did. It's that he's just simply

00:14:54.100 saying she's rigging the next election. She's pandering to the separatists. You know this

00:14:58.140 because she said Alberta sovereignty. And then you know that the affordability crisis is bad

00:15:04.100 because he said it was, even though house prices and rent costs are going down. Yes, gas is up,

00:15:09.820 but that doesn't exactly seem like it's Danielle Smith's fault. And by the way, you know how we

00:15:14.460 could solve that problem in Canada? By building pipelines, by increasing production. But that's

00:15:21.020 terrible and evil, and in fact, Nahid Nenshi's NDP are literally running to ban coal mining in

00:15:28.420 the Rockies. Yeah, let's just get rid of all energy supplies in this province. Why don't we

00:15:34.940 just blow up all of our oil wells, stop mining for coal, and just invest only in solar? Fantastic

00:15:41.400 idea. Who could guess why the Alberta NDP is very much not popular while it attacks working-class

00:15:48.600 people's jobs and just keep screaming separatist at Daniel Smith, who is very obviously federalist,

00:15:56.280 who keeps saying she is.

00:15:57.660 Oh, that's not good enough. 0.96

00:15:58.980 She needs to execute a separatist on live TV or she's not actually against them. 0.97

00:16:03.940 Oh, my goodness. 0.98

00:16:04.940 Get out of here, people.

00:16:07.100 Anyways, with all that being said, thank you guys for watching this video.
