Turmoil sets Canada back at critical time: Danielle Smith

[@healwithmetoday]

Smart SMART lady, Danielle Smith ‼️

[@dougsrepair1060]

Danielle Smith is clearly a sharp well informed leader.

[@samuelo5052]

She just doesn’t listen to the people in her province unfortunately

[@ZenCorvus]

Yes she does. Doug ford on the other hand does not

[@TheresaBrucker]

A real ostrich? Or just a "believer" that she's meddling in matters she has taken on herself and that she has a right to do so. On what basis do you think she's so smart? She's a fecking idiot and her goal is to split Alberta away from Canada 🇨🇦. Booooring! We did this already with Quebec. Albertans are Canadians first. They'd better start watching her every move. If they're not Canadians first, get out of my Canada. Join your redneck hunters and fishers in Idaho. Or some other state with people of that ilk.

[@TheresaBrucker]

​@@ZenCorvus how the hell do you know about Ontario politics? Do you live in Ontario? It amazes me that so many comments are in support of her. I guess they must be the greedy brainless people who voted for her.

[@KenMorter]

@@samuelo5052 Yes, yes, we know you lefties are in full panic mode over Danielle Smith. A smart, well-informed, common sense leader from a center right party is a threat to not only your influence politically but your very existence. People like to see clarity and honesty in a politician. Someone who actually answers a question and doesn't dance around the question. Danielle has plenty of support and will be premier of Alberta for multiple terms.

Thank goodness for Danielle Smith. Also mentioned here is Stephen Harper, who was one of Canada's greatest Prime Ministers, and who I've missed so much throughout the destruction of this country under the present communist regime led by "feminist" Justin Trudeau.

What is your sex? What do you have against feminists? How do you define feminism? Whoever you are, you would not be alive without a female person.

She invokes her own biases ( ex. anti vaxer, anti gay) which does zippo to make my life any better.she also cozy's up with trump people like tucker carlson who is a disgusting racist.

Using Canadian dollars to fund trade wars in a falling country is absolute lunacy. Thank you for your smart planning, Danielle. Outstanding work 💜

[@TheresaBrucker]

How much does she pay you to give a positive comment? What knowledge do you personally have that would support your claims? She is a dreadful leader, thinks only what's good for Alberta while the other provinces can go to hell. She's has collected a MAGA of her own by promising them they will have the most profitable lives for supporters. Her base includes fascists with far right politics, farmers complaining that the available health care of having to be take miles away is not good enough. My question is "what health care"? And then there are the rednecks. Mostly too far to the right. Many of these people, some in gangs, like the Oath Keepers and others like the mob at the January 6 attack on Capital hill, believe what they do or say or want is all right and she patronizes them, drafting unconstitutional laws so that her supporters think she's doing what they want. She's taken a page from Hitler's "how-to game plan. I don't trust her or her puppet masters and we're leaving Alberta for the province with an NDP government, British Columbia. At least people matter there. Have a close look at the powers she has given herself and the freedoms she has taken from Albertans. Open your eyes 👀 and see what's happening. Big oil has her as a lobbyist and she does everything to help them by arranging for her 'green employees' to ignore the overflowing tailing ponds. The federal government became involved and are now investigating. That's what you get when you elect a radio talk show host to do the job of Premier. First thing she did was to order that the charge against someone she knew in the Coutts border travesty be canceled? That didn't happen because politicians do not interfere in law enforcement issues like that. I guess she sees her job gives her power writ large.

I do believe Trudeau - much like his father before him, has warn out his welcome and needs to bow out. However, I'm afraid that Danielle Smith has such a hatred towards Trudeau and the federal gov't that she is willing to completely bow down to Trump no matter how much he belittles Canada...

If the US will indeed ...drill...drill..drill..until self sufficiency; doesn't that kinda mean that they will cease to accept Canada oil and its derivatives? And if So, what is the big fear in charging that 25% tariff on the oil exports....until the US has its own supply secured??

[@wendyreed7265]

All the US has to do is reduce its export of oil and gas to cover what it would not receive form Canada.

Uh, we supply 1/4-1/3 of US consumption, and USA reserves are dwindling. We have barely scratched the surface of our reserves. If USA doesn't want it, India does.
