Probably everyone interested in #cdnpoli should watch the replay of today’s oral question period. The Alberta Minister of Justice just said “there is nothing to see here.” Their disrespect for Albertans and Canadians is astounding. #ableg #abpoli

Smith attempts maga style gaslighting technique of telling you things are "opposite" of what you heard. Don't believe your lying ears 🤦🏻‍♀️

If this is what Premier Danielle Smith is willing to share when speaking to the MAGA media outlets that fuel Trump’s agenda, Albertans are justified to ask what else is she saying behind closed doors when she meets with officials and opinion makers in the US President’s orbit?

So am I understanding this right? Alberta Premier Danielle Smith asked the Trump/MAGA regime (who are currently attacking Canada) to time their attacks in order to influence the Canadian Federal Election and benefit Pierre Poilievre and the Conservative Party? In an economic and sovereignty crisis?

Is Danielle Smith really bad at politics, or is she deviously planning something big? I remember when she helped sink her entire party in Alberta 🌺 when she crossed the floor. And watching her embarass Alberta nationally now…

Canada’s oil and gas industry has dropped the mask with their support of dropping the industrial carbon price system. They don’t believe they have to do ANYTHING on climate. Not a thing. At least they’re finally telling the truth. Good to be clear with Cnds and with shareholders.

Danielle Smith saying out loud that she told the Trump administration to put tariffs on hold to help Pierre Poilievre win the election. Conservatives are collaborating with an administration that wants to break 🇨🇦. This election could not be more important. Join #TeamCarney. liberal.ca/get-involved/

Just when you think she can’t sink any lower, Danielle Smith goes again on far-right American radio, this time to push the US to interfere in our election because Poilievre would be “very much in sync” with Trump. Conservatives: in it for a win, but not in it for Canada. Let’s make sure they lose.

It's #WorldBearDay! Did you know that Manitoba, Canada, is one of the only places in North America where you can find black bears, grizzlies (barren ground), and polar bears? All three can be spotted near Churchill, though I've only seen two so far, and all my black bears have been in the south. 🌿🦊

It appears Premier Smith was not in attendance for PM Carney’s first meeting with all the other Premiers. After complaining that Ottawa ignores Alberta. When you have a seat at the table & refuse it, they aren’t ignoring you, they’re just tired of your self important Trumpesque petulance #ableg

So Premier Smith wants to be in sync with the "new direction in America". There's only one way to interpret that. The Trump direction. The direction of executive power & contempt for the rule of law & human rights. That's not the direction I want for Canada & I won't vote for it. #canpoli #abpoli

www.breitbart.com/politics/202... Smith tells Breitbart that US should pause its tariffs against Canada because it is benefitting the Liberals. Trump should want the CPC to win because "the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America."

When visiting Athabasca Glacier, you can walk along the road and trail past signs that show you the location of the glacier's terminus in different years. I've seen signs like these at a couple of different glaciers, and people always say how walking it out makes the loss hit differently for them.
