The next four years are going to be tough. They are going to be scary. Trust me, I saw the inside of Trump world closer than most. I'm not going to stop doing my work, no matter what. We are going to get through this together. My only ask, don't get disenchanted. Don't run away. Stick with me here.

It time to call for Danielle Smith’s immediate resignation. She is a total embarassment and needs to be removed.

Apology accepted 😉 He'll pass bills when elected to "help" Canadians by axing dental care, pharmacare, child tax credit, & childcare benefit. Also making the Canadian public healthcare system into a US style one. And more tax breaks for his wealthy donors.
My apologies, you are correct! He does have an extremely good pension, expense account and a handful of lobbyists in his pocket. But of course he’s just one of us, part of the working class wanting the best for all. But won’t pass a bill or vote in agreement of anything that may help Canadians.

The #UCP has made it clear that they would burn this province to the ground if it meant they could benefit financially. Environmental issues? No problem, they won’t be in office when the consequences arise. But they tear down whichever party is in place and label the issues as their fault.
UCP gov't plan to increase #coalmining in AB = little economic benefit vs significant risk to #environment.
ABs were clear in 2021 – NO!
I will con't to work w/ my colleagues + our communities to #protect our #mountains & our #water from coal development.

Watching the Mark Carney launch and he is coming out swinging against Poilievre and Trump. He states that sending Poilievre to negotiate with Trump would be “the worst possible idea” and adds that he can think of maybe one other politician that shouldn’t do it either. (To much applause in Edmonton)

I’m not saying #MarkCarney is the best fit for all Canadians, but seeing #conservatives argue that #Poilievre is a better fit is hysterical, but also concerning. People complain about costs of living, but are willing to follow the lead of a man who has NOTHING to show for his career in politics.

#DougFord doesn’t quite make my list of top 10 premiers in Canada currently, but this truly shows the level of mediocrity that we are getting from #DanielleSmith here in #ABpoli. How does she think she can help #Alberta without helping Canada?
Best quote of the day. Doug Ford on Danielle Smith:
"I respect she's concerned about protecting her energy, and that's her choice. I have a different theory. Protect your jurisdiction, but country comes first.

Canada's premieres met with a united effort to stand against Trump and his incoming tarrifs and economic pressure to make Canada a "51st state". We are united in the face of Danger.
Oh, sorry, just kidding.

Lors de conflit il y a souvent des gens qui trahissent leur nation et collaborent avec l’agresseur. En France, lors de la 2e guerre, il y a eu le régime de Vichy et le maréchal Pétain, Aujourd’hui au Canada, il y a les conservateurs trumpistes Danielle Smith et Poilievre. #PolCan #PolQc #pcc

It is also interesting to note not only most of the rest of Canada opposes her position, notable conservatives like Harper, Kenney, Ford all do as well.
Also SHE proclaimed a "turn off the taps" law to negotiate against other Canadians, but accommodates Trump in attacking Canada. #ableg #abpoli

Canada is about to go into the highest stakes poker game we have played in decades, with the Trump administration, and our Premier is sitting there holding her cards backwards, so Trump knows our hand. He will divide and conquer. Her visit wasn't negotiating, it was fandom. #ableg #abpoli
We need a provincial government that will stand up for Canada and for our sovereignty and our economy.
We have to take a Team Canada approach that looks out for the best interest of every Albertan.
It’s time for us to fight for Canada! Danielle Smith, are you listening?

Thanks Danielle. Your refusal to sit at the adult 🇨🇦 table will continue to earn the disdain of Canadians. Your legacy will be a destroyer of everything that is good about this country: good manners and pulling together when times get tough. #abpoli #cdnpoli
Can we just turn off the Trans-Mountain pipeline? We bought it for Alberta and apparently they don’t particularly appreciate it.

While I was not in Alberta during her election, I will come to the defence of the small portion of mild liberals who believed her platform when running. But in typical #conservative fashion, she let go of her values and duties to her voters. Now she is willing to sell out anyone and anything.
Alberta’s Far Right Conservative Premier Danielle Smith appears set to deliver Alberta right into Trump’s greedy hands … and hurt Canada in the process. #Cdnpoli #Abpoli

#DanielleSmith has made it clear repeatedly that she is not acting on behalf of all Albertans. She is representing the rural constituents and will do anything to advance her own agenda #UCPhastogo
Danielle Smith flying her separatist flag. She's sell out AB and Canada in a heartbeat if it benefits her and the O&G sector. Not 'energy sector'. She's only interested in O&G. Not AB or Albertans. Not Canada or Canadians. Only her own self-interest and those of her O&G buddies.
