Disappointing to see the Premier of Alberta travelling to the U. S. again while Canadians are encouraged to spend money elsewhere
It would appear, to me at least, that she is planting the seeds to build a career in media as opposed to doing what is best for the people of Alberta

At this rate, it feels like the Premier will have spent more time in the US in 2025 than in Alberta.
She can’t even pretend this is one of her weak “diplomatic” trips. This is a promo tour for Trump MAGA types.
Sure doesn’t feel like she’s working for Canada’s interests.

Why is Danielle Smith participating in a PragerU event with Ben Shapiro?
I sure hope Alberta taxpayers aren't footing the bill to fly her down to Florida.

We need anti-slap legislation in Alberta. It is beyond idiotic that the rich, who give skybox seats to our elected MLAs Ang get sweetheart deals from those same officials can sue a small content provider for revealing the truth.

It’s official. On Monday, when a whole lot was going on, the UCP quietly removed the ban on coal mining in the Eastern Slopes of the Rockies.
The same ban put in place because you, Albertans, spoke out.
We need you again.
Coal is a threat to us all.
A threat to our water.

Doesn’t she ever get tired of embarrassing Canada and Albertans specifically? How did she fool so many into thinking she is fit to be Premier?
While Danielle Smith is racking up air miles lobbying for oil and gas exemptions, she might also be undermining the biggest stick a future Canadian government in Ottawa has to retaliate against Trump’s tariffs - the oil and gas we export into the United States.
Being in Trump's orbit a double-edged sword for Danielle Smith
Smith wants tariff exemptions for oil and gas but Trump might want those jobs for American workers

Just another example of the UCP government refusal to do anything meaningful to help Albertans.
"The province's reports showed that Alberta could bring consumers the biggest savings by adopting a fully public insurance system like Saskatchewan, British Columbia and others."
But, let's try lifting rate caps and see what happens.
