I said it when she was running for leader. I’ll say it again now: Danielle Smith will fuck over this entire province if there is even the slightest chance it will benefit her personally. Due to recent events, I now believe she’d fuck over the entire country. #ableg

Sure looks like it’s pride that keeps the UCP from just dumping that useless Turkish ‘Tylenot’ it bought in 2022 to own the Libs. albertapolitics.ca/2025/03/sure...

Danielle Smith, you have some explaining to do. Your friend, Dr. Dennis Modry, is heading to Washington to discuss Alberta sovereignty, to give you more bargaining power with Ottawa. He has a petition and claims to be in touch with you. Please explain. youtu.be/05vqFMpTuEI #Ableg #cdnpoli

No premier should share the stage with this.

Danielle Smith is keen to headline an event with Ben Shapiro - just as much as she gloried in sharing a stage with Tucker Carlson or a selfie with Trump - because it serves as validation from the American far-right/MAGA political class she admires and seeks to emulate. She wants to be one of them.

Premier Danielle Smith’s choice to keep company with this person is truly a disgrace to the office, the oath we swear when we go in to cabinet, the flag and the country. Not the first time she’s disgraced Canada. Recall she was ashamed to wear the poppy during the pandemic.

The UCP government has spent millions of dollars storing its stock of expiring Turkish Tylenol and unused personal protection equipment (PPE) purchased from MHCare Medical, adding millions in previously unknown costs to the Corrupt Care scandal.

Trudeau: We didn't ask for this. But we'll fight back. Ford: Here's some tariffs for you, my friend. Kinew: We will not do business with US firms. Canada stands united. Smith: What should I wear to my Ben Shapiro interview?

Premier Smith is cutting AISH & sexual assault center funding & using OUR tax dollars instead to travel to the U.S to speak on behalf of & raise money for, for a Christian Nationalist alt-right conspiracy blog & YouTube Channel. Who voted for this? Just another Tues in fuck*d up #ableg #abpoli

Intelligent, critically thinking Canadians remember when Harper ran a decade of deficits only to fake a surplus in time for the 2015 election by selling off GM stock at a $3.5 BILLION loss, taking $2 BILLION from the contingency fund, and withholding spending for Veterans. Never again! #cdnpoli

Mark Gerretsen 🇨🇦 🇺🇦 - LIAR. You voted against the Canada/Ukraine free trade agreement & you voted against military aid to Ukraine on multiple occasions. You only "stand with Ukraine" when it serves your political purposes...and now seems to be a convenient time for you. #cdnpoli #peipoli

“Pierre Poilievre has spent his time as party leader insulting Canadians’ intelligence with rage-bait and misinformation. The Conservatives chose the path of hate and division, taking cues from the Trump playbook. It’s too late to pretend they give a shit about national unity.”

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is headlining an event in Florida this month with ghoulish right-wing social media personality Ben Shapiro, who recently tweeted at PM Trudeau that “When we take Canada, you will be expelled to Panama to work the canal.”

NEW: Canada’s new PM, Mark Carney, has just delivered what sounded like a wartime speech, savaging Trump & the US. "These are dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust. We are getting over the shock, but let us never forget the lessons. We have to look after ourselves."💥

The premier should not attend this event, let alone speak at it. 🔴Prager is a well-known disinformation outlet. 🔴Shapiro is a well-known bigot. 🔴Florida is at the heart of our trade war with the United States. This is a bad idea.

While education and healthcare implode, while the CorruptCare scandal widens, while her caucus crumbles, while other leaders are encouraging Canadians not to travel to the USA, Danielle Smith plans to go back to Florida…to get this: hang with far-right MAGA types. Have you had enough, Alberta?

The convoy crew held the people of Ottawa hostage and tried to divide people with rage politics. No wonder they are freaked out by Canadian solidarity and goodwill. They promote bitterness. We stand for a better nation. #elbowsup my friends Canada is strong.
