    Smith is straight up looking like a treasonous traitor right now.

      She should be given the biggest of side eyes. A lot of the laws Alberta has been passing are fairly direct challenges to Charter rights.

      Yeah

      I always start hostile negotiations by saying what would hurt me the most and not committing to back up my own interests.

      Dude. That’s her mandate. It’s not that she’s betraying Canada; it’s more that the R.o.C isn’t really a consideration. Barely an afterthought, there to buffer the oil numbers.

        She’s even betraying Alberta. Yes, because “Alberta” is not the same as “the oil and gas industry”.

        The conservative oil boot-lickers in Alberta have decided that the province must suffer Dutch Disease no matter what and at the expense of everyone else.
