Does she think she can just take Alberta out of confederation by herself? I know there are MAGAts out there who want to join the USA but they’re still in the minority. Referendum or surrender, those are her two options. And I doubt Albertans will surrender.

Smith repeated a number of policies she wants changed, including unfettered cross-boundary access to build pipeline

She's asking for something that not only supersedes Federal and Provincial powers but also Judicial process. This is Trump declaring himself king of America level crap.

Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi said Smith's threat of a national unity crisis is "childish" and "juvenile" and will fail to get any concessions from the federal government.

I don't know why people keep trying underplay stuff like this from people Smith, Pierre and Trump. Smith is trying to threaten the sovereignty of our nation in times of crisis, there nothing "childish" and "juvenile" about it.

Carney should be treating her like he treats trump: Don't talk to her at all, unless she shows some respect for this country.

"I provided a specific list of demands the next prime minister, regardless of who that is, must address within the first six months of their term to avoid an unprecedented national unity crisis," Smith said in a statement Thursday after a morning meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney in the Alberta capital.

So it's extortion, then.

National unity crisis my ass. She's fucking delusional.

Wouldn't it be funny if a bunch of Alberta ridings turned red?

Nahh, you need leverage to be able to extort someone. Smith has fuck all to pressure the rest of the country with, all she can do is keep making things worse for us in Alberta.

Anyone know the Canadian definition of treason?

I am so glad we moved. Smith and her money men are so much worse than ole Fordy.who.is admittedly a huge pile of steaming crap. These fuckers are going to destroy us given the opportunity.

STFU Marlaina and stay in your lane.

So the traitor gives demands? Bold strategy cotton, let's see if it pays off.

Traitors like her deserve a cell while waiting for their sentence.
