Every comment about Alberta separation is entirely Danielle Smith’s fault. She’s the one who allowed this talk to continue for the last year and even encouraged the separatists petition.

This leader is a JOKE.
She stoked the entire thing.
She’s been trying grab onto any Republican coat tail she can to try get trump to even glance in her direction.
Where is the pro-trump, pro-US banter now that trump’s agents are shooting people in the street?

It’s all politics, the UCP has been losing support to the Alberta Republican party due to being seen as soft/cozying up with Ottawa and now there is a new PC forming in AB. It does not take a lot of votes lost to lose seats since the UCP and NDP have been pretty close in the polls which would equal an NDP win come next election.
This entire thing is to try to strike a balance with the far right wing members of the party and keep their support. It’s quite the risk and I could see it escalating out of her control pretty easily.

Now she’s playing “hard to get”?
Trump 2.0 wasn’t even yet elected and was going to Mar-A-Lago licking Trump’s boots!
She’s been spouting the same “Freedum” crap than those who attacked the Capitol. Does she really think that she could lead Alberta to separate and yet, that this wouldn’t lead to Alberta being absorbed by the US?
Either she’s lying as much as she breathes or she’s as stupid as those in UK who started Brexit and never thought it would pass.

Sure Marlaina, we’ll believe the hot air coming through your forked tongue and kindly ignore all your highly questionable actions. Please, find more ways to make us dumberer, notwithstanding and all that.

I’m sure it was because it only came from the Secretary of the Treasury, not dreamy enough like a Rubio or a Vance *barf*

It is perverse that the premier of Alberta is speaking on behalf of the separatist camp while making it sound like this is the majority of Albertans when the data doesn’t support this position. Well facts be damned, right? Some fine double speak here: “The Premier supports a strong and sovereign Alberta within a united Canada.” She’s working hard to keep the separatist supporters if the vote is no to separation and equally hard to grab the top job if the vote were ever to be yes. Her shamelessness has no bounds – no lie is too rabid, no action is too dishonest, no consequence is too damaging to Albertans in order for her to keep her power base. And yeah I’m mad that we can’t get her voted out even when so many Albertans are unhappy with the crap they are pulling in this province and yet still keep voting UCP. I’m ranting to the choir, I know.
