Smith Defends Alberta’s Place in Canada

from Edmonton News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Premier Danielle Smith is firmly defending Alberta’s place within Canada, arguing that current federal policies now support resource development and that collaboration on infrastructure and defense benefits all Canadians. She warns that leaving Confederation would mirror Brexit’s chaos and undermine Alberta’s economic potential, stressing unity as key to political success and regional strength. On a radio call, she joked about a hypothetical Alberta-Saskatchewan merger, recalling a historical Buffalo proposal while dismissing it as impractical — instead advocating for pragmatic provincial cooperation over formal union.
