Danielle Smith isn’t just picking fights with Ottawa; she’s threatening Alberta’s future.

If she wants a referendum on separation, bring it on.

Albertans will defeat it.

Everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home.

But under Danielle Smith and the UCP, that goal is slipping further out of reach: Alberta now has the worst housing affordability in the country.

We can change that. 🔽 /1

Alberta has the fastest-growing unemployment rate in the country, and it’s hitting young men the hardest.

We can do better.

Alberta measles cases continue to grow. Most cases are in the south and most cases are unvaccinated people. 10% have been hospitalized. Fortunately no one has died yet, but if this epidemic isn’t controlled someone will likely die soon.

Albertans have good reason to be angry: their real wages are down 10%, their minimum wage is frozen, their inflation is worst in Canada, their health care's at risk. None of that was caused by the rest of Canada. My take in today's @TorontoStar: www.thestar.com/business/opi.... #cdnecon

Danielle Smith said the quiet part out loud:

She is putting our country at risk because she is chasing clout with extremists to stay in power.

Albertans deserve so much better than this selfish, separatist, power-hungry Premier.

Edmontonians can cheer for this one Calgary team only because our fair city doesn’t have a team yet. Also, why doesn’t Edmonton have a team?
Congratulations to the @calgarywildfc.bsky.social on their first home game! What an exciting way to celebrate Mother’s Day, and I hope this becomes an annual tradition! We’ll be cheering loudly for you! #GoWild

Threatening separation from Canada will drive up unemployment
April’s Labour Force Survey shows Alberta has the highest youth unemployment rate in the country.

Under Danielle Smith, young people are struggling to find careers where they can thrive.

Instead of trying to separate our country, the UCP should be fighting for good jobs for everyone.

The fight we face is with President Trump, not Ottawa, and certainly not each other.

Danielle Smith is dividing our country and picking fights in a moment that calls for national unity.
