He should have used the “ I was drunk” excuse. That would be plausible.

samanthawil.bsky.social•3 days ago

Exactly

wartimegardener.bsky.social•4 days ago

Anything to avoid the question

He answered it by omission anyway

pimpy.bsky.social•4 days ago

You’ve got the Vichy politicians too huh

simongood.bsky.social•4 days ago

Is this who Alex P Keaton really turned into?

trippingmedal.bsky.social•4 days ago

Traitor! He would sell out Albertans in a heartbeat.

dontberuthless.bsky.social•4 days ago

What about her trip to PragerU to engage with David Shapiro? What's that got to do with tarrifs? I sure hope that our taxes aren't paying for that junket.

mistyff999.bsky.social•4 days ago

Is he hearing impaired? Cos he answered a completely different question.

Lies….

He can keep talking until he is blue in the face, but this says it all.

truthseeker73863.bsky.social•4 days ago

One of UCP Danielle Smith’s Ministers in Alberta. Maga runs through that party of slimeballs

darbyfish.bsky.social•2 days ago

Lots of “Alberta First” so not doing anything in the best interests of Canada. He just hopes that he will get a better deal personally if he helps Trump destroy Canada

chriscaple.bsky.social•4 days ago

Can't bring himself to directly denounce or repudiate Trump in any way.

fuzzywuzzyto.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sounds like he remembers it fondly, and cherishes his involvement.

chriscaple.bsky.social•4 days ago

Cretins like this will absolutely attempt to Albexit out of Canada at the first possible opportunity.

fuzzywuzzyto.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’ve said for 2 months now that I think Smith et al are in the early stage of exploring ways to have Alberta join the U.S. That’s why she’s spent so much time down there.

djkranic.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah, I'm guessing that's the backup plan for if PP doesn't win and pawns off Canada to the US

notjustdave.bsky.social•4 days ago

She's a mentee of Tom Flanagan, co-author of the Firewall Letter, and alumni of the Leadership Institute. She's a cog in a small, but incessant machine that will just not shut the fuck up.

chriscaple.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yep. Carney's going to have to do some serious strong-arming to keep these yahoos from seceding.

alisonborealis.bsky.social•4 days ago

I mean, they have to get Albertans on side.
And all the treaties.

ellieatmoore.bsky.social•4 days ago

Nah. He just has to undermine her. Turn up the volume on her failures. Use simple slogans to do so. Magas can grasp simple.

agenericbody.bsky.social•3 days ago

Can we work a trade?

Canada gets Washington, Oregon & California & the US gets Calgary.

mgrasdal.bsky.social•4 days ago

Alberta first, Canada last. The UCP is MAGA and separatist to the core.

I have to say, though, I admire your forbearance in addressing him so politely. I might have addressed him as "Hey, little boy, cosplaying as an adult with a responsible job".

lancestorm.bsky.social•4 days ago

So he doesn’t regret his support of Trump and he is still a Trump supporter. Way to say a lot and not answer a specific question.

allij.bsky.social•4 days ago

Deflect, deny, disengage.

ellieatmoore.bsky.social•4 days ago

travelking.bsky.social•4 days ago

Did anyone ask him if he's a proud Canadian? Or just an Albertan?

tealerino.bsky.social•4 days ago

What an insufferable human.

danamrich.bsky.social•4 days ago

@cinematological.com So I'm taking this as "I support Trump but refuse to say it because I realize my career ends if I do"

cinematological.com•4 days ago

Damn straight - he won't be able to do that dance for much longer, the countries mood is not here for it

musicbaum.bsky.social•4 days ago

Nice to know this guy's still kissing Trump's ass.

hoolie999.bsky.social•4 days ago

@devindreeshen

infobooth.bsky.social•4 days ago

Never answers the question.

calgarycanuck.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you can't say you don't support Trump then clearly you do support Trump. Question answered.

newsandcoffee.bsky.social•4 days ago

he's a drunken, stumblebum piece of shit, but the people who kept voting for him AFTER the MAGA stuff all came out should be equally embarrassed and publicly shamed.

bacullenyyc.bsky.social•3 days ago

Also official Chair of the Alberta UCP Liquor Cabinet

jamesswill.bsky.social•1 day ago

It would kill that guy to actually answer the damn question, apparently.

moe-rosie.bsky.social•4 days ago

He’s a Trumper first just like his boss

rockyroad25.bsky.social•1 day ago

Another Maple MAGA traitor. Poilievre. Smith. Vote them out.

derekcrimlaw.bsky.social•3 days ago

Devin. Just answer the question. You were asked to disavow your support for Trump. You did not do that. You should resign. Period. If you can’t, it’s really more likely that you won’t.

manitobaexpat.bsky.social•4 days ago

I didn't hear him denounce Trump.

cmcalgary.bsky.social•4 days ago

This should come up more often. Love to see it.

saltntights.bsky.social•4 days ago

So... not answering the question

caryglenn.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a question.

calizaybak.bsky.social•2 days ago

All he has to say is he regrets supporting Trump and no longer does.

And he just can't!

Gosh, I wonder why?

summerton.bsky.social•3 days ago

He supports Trump, and so does our Premiere, they need to go, they r Traitors

shakois.bsky.social•4 days ago

Traitor.

inlandexile.bsky.social•4 days ago

Didn't answer the question.

nevakos.bsky.social•4 days ago

What a douche

billdit.bsky.social•4 days ago

Headline: Alberta MLA Handed Public Opportunity to Denounce Trump - Fails.

nickdanger8989.bsky.social•4 days ago

He's so greasy...

rowanwiebe.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's telling that his qualifications to how Albertan he is is how long his family has been here. Not loyalty or commitment to a shared vision but a step above race-science.
