Alberta has the single worst premier in Canada

https://www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/article/smith-apologizes-for-comparing-vaccinated-albertans-to-followers-of-hitler/

Justin Trudeau sacrificed political capital for Alberta. He opened a brand new pipeline. Under his mandate, Alberta oil production reached the highest level in HISTORY:

He was rewarded with nothing but contempt and LIES:

In January 2025, she was the ONLY Premier who REFUSED to sign a declaration, saying Canada will hit back if it faces economic pressure from the US:

On March 20, 2025, she gave an interview to Breitbart in which she said the Trump administration should pause tariffs in order to help Pierre Poilievre:

Danielle Smith sickens me. In the military, this is the kind of officers who always end up shot by their own troops.

Ugh. I really wish they'd say who is getting infected and why they aren't vaccinated. Not because I want to stigmatize the group, but so we can fucking understand why public health seems to be falling apart.

In Ontario, many of the measles sufferers were Mennonites who refused vaccination before it was cool. Is that the case in Alberta?
