1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:17,760 and today i just wanted to show this little depiction this was shared on another channel 2 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:26,720 and i thought i'd just draw a little version of what i saw this pertains to the current situation 3 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:34,960 we're experiencing and this big pile here represents a giant pile of rice or the world's population and 4 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:44,720 here we have give or take eight billion people in the world represented as this massive pile of rice 5 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:51,200 now of course these piles won't be to scale but it will serve the purpose now out of eight billion 6 00:00:51,200 --> 00:01:01,040 people 16 million people die of cardiovascular disease and in this smaller pile 1.6 million people 7 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:08,800 die every year of diarrhea and this could be a variety of different reasons but nonetheless 8 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:20,480 attributed to this condition and 1.2 million people die in cars here we have a smaller pile of 800 9 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:31,840 000 deaths attributed to suicide and here we have one grain of rice one grain compared to this pile 10 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:44,240 that represents three pounds and here one grain has supposedly kicked the bucket due to this modern day 11 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:54,800 epidemic it has not even reached the number attributed to the common flu that is something we live with 12 00:01:54,800 --> 00:02:03,120 every day and for this grain of rice a small select few have decided to shut down the world's economy 13 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,160 if we were really concerned about deaths we would eliminate the automobile just as quickly 14 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:19,760 as the controllers took action in this modern instance however this is even more alarming that such action 15 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:27,600 would be taken for such a ridiculous statistic and this leads me to believe that something much greater 16 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:37,600 is going on and here is trump is claiming that we've passed our peak protesters are taking to the streets 17 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:46,720 the streets nationwide bombarding their capitals and similar to henry david thoreau i always encourage 18 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:56,800 civil disobedience and with that said welcome here we're going to look at the ottawa canada library of 19 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:06,960 parliament building and today's video is brought to you by meow mix and we did look at this briefly in the last video 20 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:17,600 and we have also looked at the parliament building in past videos here's a little look at that and a fascinating 21 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:25,200 building and you can see my past video which i'll link below if you want to 22 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,640 delve into the parliament building itself but today we're going to have a little look 23 00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:38,000 a little look at the library attached to this parliament building according to the falsities 24 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:47,120 the library of parliament is the main information repository and research resource for the parliament of 25 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:57,760 canada and is the last untouched part of the larger building's original incarnation after it burnt down in 1916 26 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:03,840 designed by thomas fuller the building is inspired by the british museum reading room 27 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:13,120 reading room and here we can see the inside of that and the construction of the library began in 1859 28 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:25,120 and completed in 1876. they tell us in 1861 the work was halted and in 1869 the builders discovered 29 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:33,280 that they didn't have the technical knowledge to build the domed roof in the middle of construction 30 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,840 realizing they're not sure how they're even going to construct this according to the narrative 31 00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:48,400 this meant that thomas fairbairn engineering company of manchester had to be contracted to provide a 32 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:56,640 pre-fabricated dome within a few weeks mind you this is 1866 i mean here just calling upon this firm 33 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:03,920 and this gave the library of parliament the distinction of being the first building in north america to have 34 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:13,360 a state-of-the-art wrought iron roof further they tell us in 1883 the library's 300 gas lights were 35 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:20,800 converted to electricity so here in this short period completing the building in 1876 they tell us and 36 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:28,720 less than 10 years later they're converting the gas lighting into electricity and they tell us everything 37 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:38,160 went over budget and within only 12 years the entire roof was stripped of its slate shingles in a tornado 38 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:47,280 that hit parliament in 1888 since then the roof has been clad in copper and of course the building was 39 00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:56,880 constantly threatened by fire the first fire in 1916 seems the building was spared and eventually in 1952 40 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:05,280 fire did enter the library it was then necessary to perform structural work and all kinds of other 41 00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:17,520 renovations so pretty amazing for 1866 to even conceive of building something like this 1866 now what was 42 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:26,480 going on in ottawa what could the population have been and according to these demographics really 43 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:36,880 beginning in 1901 we have a population of 100 000 and really seeming unnecessary to build a library like 44 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:43,280 this when you're just starting out your town probably the population being closer to 50 000 45 00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:50,640 and more realistically probably 25 we can have a little bird's eye view of the city here 46 00:06:50,640 --> 00:07:01,760 in 1876 and here in the center we see what appears to be the parliament building and the library and pretty 47 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:11,440 much everything laid out to perfection just starting out with amazing buildings and well engineered roads 48 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:23,520 and city layout an impressive shaping of the river coast here and here and here in present day we can see the 49 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:32,800 parliamentary building still standing after several fires and here a picture in present day just 50 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:43,440 absolutely magnificent amazing structures all around much to explore in this fine city and we can see modern 51 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:52,560 buildings in the background the finest cubes we can produce sprinkled with a much older time period 52 00:07:52,560 --> 00:08:04,160 i look forward to exploring much more in this city and i'm always amazed at these museums often much more 53 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:11,760 impressive are the buildings compared to anything housed inside of them and here they're showing us the 54 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:20,560 university of ottawa the oldest post-secondary institution in the city established in 1848 55 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:31,920 and universities seeming to be quick to snatch up and repurpose many of these magnificent buildings so again let's be 56 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:43,840 realistic here let's look at the technology in 1866 and what are these people thinking if we're to believe 57 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:53,520 the narrative to embark on the idea of constructing something like this completely unreasonable to consider 58 00:08:53,520 --> 00:09:03,360 the possibility of doing much more than things like this with a horse or things like this clearly at a time 59 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:13,200 that they had not figured out how to fire up all the inherited tech left behind by the prior civilization 60 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:23,040 and let's consider today with all the modern equipment that we have what do we build we build economical 61 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:34,080 cubes very hive-like repeating the same pattern over and over very economical and unpleasant to the eye 62 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,840 certainly in comparison to buildings like this 63 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:48,240 and recently i was prompted to have a little look at this particular building a windowless skyscraper 64 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:56,320 found in new york city and we can have a little look at that here very interesting and a first for me 65 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:06,960 what could the purpose of such a building be located at 33rd thomas street looking pretty eerie 66 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:15,760 and suspicious and here we can see some beautiful old world buildings in the background in comparison 67 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:26,800 to this modern junk we see here and what do they tell us about this building formerly the AT&T building it is 68 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:37,120 a 550 foot tall skyscraper in lower manhattan the building is an example of brutalist architectural style 69 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:47,200 said to have developed in the late 1950s here they glaze over the origins and finally we're told 70 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:55,440 the building has also been described as the likely location of a national security agency 71 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:05,200 a mass surveillance hub codenamed titan point the location was previously the site of cast iron buildings 72 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:13,280 typical of the area the facades of which were preserved prior to demolition the building was a core part 73 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:23,680 of the AT&T long lines department it was completed in 1974 and is often described as one of the most secure 74 00:11:23,680 --> 00:11:30,720 buildings in america it was designed to be self-sufficient with its own gas and water supplies along with 75 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:39,280 generation capabilities and protected from nuclear fallout for up to two weeks after a blast very 76 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:46,160 interesting speaking of the self-sufficiency and really what we all should be considering 77 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:54,560 in such times doesn't matter if it was this false scenario and scare that has been created 78 00:11:54,560 --> 00:12:02,240 it could have been anything and people should be self-sufficient and less dependent on the system 79 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:11,280 regardless of what's going on and when it comes to living self-sufficiently i found that one can produce 80 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:18,800 almost all of one's own needs perhaps the most difficult thing to produce would be something like 81 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:28,240 toilet paper and using one's imagination one could find different ways to perform the function of this 82 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:36,320 cheap disposable product and if you want to know more about living self-sustainably do check out my book 83 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:44,320 where i teach you how to live off the grid free of bills and detached from this corrupt system 84 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:52,160 in which we live and you can find the link for that below and here i just wanted to share a comment 85 00:12:52,160 --> 00:13:00,320 by wita and they're telling us about this palace in amsterdam and i thank you for the share and we can 86 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:08,960 have a little look at that here seeming as if this could have had any designation cathedral parliament 87 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:18,320 building nothing but the most important of designations a fine wonder and a glimpse of the old world 88 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:29,600 what could they tell us about this building and what was going on in 1850 either the people of the past 89 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:37,520 were absolutely genius and we have degraded as a civilization or these buildings were not built 90 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:46,640 by our people at all and what we see down here are a primitive and simple people pushing carts around 91 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:56,640 holding markets in the streets and really having no need for buildings of this nature not then in 1850 92 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:04,320 or even now and what do they tell us about this palace of popular diligence 93 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:15,920 a large exhibition hall in amsterdam the building was constructed between 1859 and 1864 just blasting this 94 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:26,160 baby out in about six years it was designed by an architect named cornelius outshorn inspired by the crystal 95 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:36,480 palace in london in 1929 it was destroyed by fire of course and here we can have a little look at the crystal 96 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:48,000 palace always remarkable and once again similar to the world's fairs this exhibition took place from may 1st 97 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:59,920 to october 15th in 1851 so to construct this again for six months of usage how and why 98 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:09,600 completely ridiculous and very tragic and not surprising that this beauty constructed of what 99 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:18,960 appears to be non-flammable materials would burn down i'm not even sure how i would proceed 100 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:27,680 to burn this structure down even if i wanted to and here i just wanted to feature a little showcase of 101 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:35,680 capital buildings and this is a little website that i found here and it looks like a very nice showcase 102 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:44,560 of capital buildings found throughout our nation and i would love such a showcase of capital buildings 103 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:50,880 found throughout the world but for now very excited to see a nice handful here we have 104 00:15:51,840 --> 00:16:00,400 manchester new hampshire a true wonder perhaps gold on the dome austin texas a real beauty 105 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:11,120 with this sandstone hue absolutely remarkable this is a first for me and harrisburg pennsylvania a little 106 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:21,440 taste with some massive sculpting on either side here compared to this man and columbus ohio really seeming 107 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:30,320 incomplete probably inherited mid-construction or the top may have been blown off very beautiful 108 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:40,400 beautiful and indianapolis indiana and we have looked at indianapolis in past videos a very 109 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:52,000 beautiful square in the center of town and springfield illinois a superb structure almost with a kind of yellow 110 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:59,760 hue and what looks like a center point that probably has some sort of obelisk or 111 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:11,600 something adding to the technological feature that many of these buildings appear to display and des moines 112 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:22,080 iowa we love our des moines capital the only five domed golden capital building in the nation 113 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:30,800 and really cool the way they took this shop and helena montana always fun to look at the capital 114 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:39,520 buildings built by cowboys perhaps tartarian cowboys and olympia washington very appropriate 115 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:47,600 and i'm not sure what we're seeing here but very remarkable sacramento california 116 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:57,920 the real beauty in carson city nevada again the architecture of the old west and of course salt lake 117 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:07,120 city utah just mind-blowing and i've yet to take a little peek inside in person one of these days not 118 00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:16,160 sure if they would let my dog in and augusta maine way up there in maine very important very same style 119 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:23,680 and providence rhode island this is just a beauty really reminding me of 120 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:33,600 the building in amsterdam we had a look at earlier in the video super techie with its five concentrated domes 121 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:44,240 totally unnecessary for a government municipality way over the top whereas one simple floor would suffice 122 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:56,640 today and yesterday and cheyenne wyoming again the architecture of cowboys who is a cowboy to break tradition 123 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:06,560 nothing less than the corinthian column in rugged wyoming very beautiful and dover delaware not as 124 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:16,560 impressive as the others but nonetheless the architecture of the old world always made of brick with a 125 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:25,120 beautiful facade over the top and perhaps this was a project on a budget but we know that there's no such 126 00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:32,720 thing in the old world so that's it for today i do thank you for joining me and do have a blessed day 127 00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:46,480 please like comment and subscribe and i thought i'd jump back in for a little bonus segment let's just 128 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:55,680 have a little look at this parliament building in ottawa and here we are and we can see even in the early 129 00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:06,480 depiction this type of canal was already here way back and here we have the grand and glorious parliament 130 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:16,160 building and maybe we can just park ourselves right down here and here a little peek at the stonework 131 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:23,520 and of course the antiquateque and clearly some scorching has taken place here 132 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:35,520 and very impressive block work unperplexed by the use of non-uniform stones and we can see here they fit 133 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:47,040 like a perfect glove in a very early time period of the 1860s truly masterful using different types of stone 134 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:55,680 and again fitting them like a glove and what i couldn't help but notice was that many of these structures 135 00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:05,120 of old seem to be sitting on top of a much older stone and this much older stone appears to be the 136 00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:13,600 remains of much older buildings and as we can see in photos in the past is that we do have cities 137 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:23,120 these underneath our cities and it seems to me as if many of these grand buildings were simply built 138 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:33,280 on top of the remains of buildings from prior resets and really a pretty smart tactic 139 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:43,520 as we've been told a wise man builds his home on a rock or in this case an ancient building real quickly 140 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:52,160 i thought i'd take a little dive into new mexico here and examine this old star fort we see in the 141 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:59,920 middle of nowhere out in the deep desert and i've shown this in a past video but here it is again 142 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:08,560 simply the imprint of a star fort and anybody that's looked at star forts recognizes this pattern 143 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:18,320 and it seems like one could approach this off the main road and when we click on this image this is 144 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:29,440 what we get some old brick ruins out here in the middle of nowhere and it appears as if 145 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:41,040 perhaps the park service has applied some covering over this brick either to preserve or to hide the true origins 146 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:51,520 of these ruins and down here we can see some block work very interesting and back here as well larger block 147 00:22:51,520 --> 00:23:01,680 work underneath the brick and this is pretty fascinating not what i was expecting to see around this star fort 148 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:13,120 originally i just clicked on this picture here and this is what it shows us just a whole bunch of ruins 149 00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:22,800 and of course the narrative may tell us that this is the remains of some fort but i don't think so 150 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:32,880 here these are found around this star fort that is pretty much unknown and very fascinating 151 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:52,560 something to explore a little more in another video so that's it i promise until next time god bless
