Alberta Premier Accused Of “Cosying Up” To US Cultists

CTV News reports:

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, dressed in red and white and quoting Winston Churchill, stood in the legislature Wednesday to denounce those who accuse her of “treason” by cosying up to U.S. influencers and officials who wish to do Canada harm. It comes as Smith prepares to fly to Florida to join a Thursday fundraising event with an American podcaster who has mocked Canada as a “silly country” and spoken about it being annexed as the 51st state.

“It’s apparently treason to talk to American media personalities that we disagree with. It’s disloyal to try and persuade high-profile Republicans holding influence with the president to abandon his tariff policies on Canada,” the premier said. “Indeed, it’s a high crime to try and convince U.S. officials to refrain from imposing tariffs until after our country has elected a leader with a strong mandate. Shame on all who dare to speak with the enemy.”

Read the full article. Smith is set to appear on Ben Shapiro’s podcast and some say a drop-in at Mar-A-Lago is possible. (Trump is currently in DC.) She has appeared here multiple times for anti-vax and similar nutbag actions. The speech quoted above is in the video below.



Friendly reminder of who Danielle Smith is meeting next week. #cdnpoli #canada #canadasky
