Live from the front lines of Alberta's independence campaign

I joined John Bolton's Alberta Independence Telethon live from Lethbridge, where Rebel News journalist Tamara Lich and I were taking part in an Alberta's Choice sign drop as part of our work with my third-party advertiser.

Today's Gunn Show is a little different — I guess I'm the guest on my own show!

Over the weekend, I joined John Bolton's Alberta Independence Telethon live from Lethbridge, where Rebel News journalist Tamara Lich and I were taking part in an Alberta's Choice sign drop as part of our work with my third-party advertiser.

We talked about what we were seeing on the ground, the momentum behind the movement, and why so many Albertans are getting involved.

The 12-hour telethon raised approximately $150,000 for independence-focused third-party advertiser groups ahead of the referendum campaign.

Have a watch, and let me know what you think!

Rebel News is stepping up where the legacy media have failed. We've assigned Tamara Lich to follow the Alberta independence movement as it unfolds — not from a government-funded newsroom in Toronto, but on the ground with the people actually shaping it. We don’t take a cent of the Liberals' media bailouts, which means we rely entirely on viewers like you to make this journalism possible. If you want Albertans to have a fair voice in a debate the establishment would rather crush, please chip in today and help us keep this reporting going strong.
