Avoid Paywall

Smith told a news conference that her government wants to make it easier for Albertans to express their political views. 

"These changes build on the integrity, trust and openness that have always been at the heart of democracy and keep Alberta strong and free," she said.

Just half of road funding is paid for by road users through funding mechanisms like fuel taxes or vehicle registration fees, and the largest share of that (the federal gas tax) has not been raised in over 30 years. However, some in Congress have tried to blame the rise of electric vehicles and fuel-efficient gasoline-powered vehicles for the federal government’s struggles to fund decades of road-building.

Jamie Ellerton, a Conservative strategist who worked for past leader Erin O'Toole, said Poilievre is likely to hang on to the leadership at this point — although a possible Liberal majority call could complicate things.

"I think he has rock-solid support among the party membership," Ellerton said in an interview.

Other Conservatives say Poilievre's future is to be determined, given the Liberals will live to see another day and victory slipped through his hands.

"This is a big loss to a tired government that's been in power for 10 years," one senior Conservative source who worked for Poilievre in the past told CBC News.

"The guy couldn't do what needed to be done. He utterly refused to acknowledge that the ballot box question had changed to the bitter end," the source said, referring to the U.S. trade war.
