Since she didn't run on a separation mandate she should immediately call an election to get one.

And get another majority. This is Alberta.

Unless they promise tax cuts! Then we will elect them!

But that's not the real story "Smith called out on her repeated lies" would be an accurate headline. Or maybe, "Smith embarassed by Kinew."

It was nice to see someone call her out for being a fucking disgrace. The media and the other politicians are way too accommodating.

Best sitting politician in Canada and it's not even a contest.

Fuck Alberta, just let em get it over with. Jokes on them, the vote means nothing either way it goes.

Hey, most people here think she's nuts too.

Definitely, hopefully enough of ya vote to toss the twat out next election.

I'll admit I enjoy Banff and the stupid historical village in Calgary and it's big dumb paddlewheel boat in the drinking water.

Oh shit Drumheller, that shit was sick.

Too bad most people here don't realise their party is full of people just like her.

What are they supposed to do, not blindly vote for the same party every time without checking what they want? /s

Yes, but she needs to save her job now!

I bet she won't end up doing that either. This is too much for the federalists and not enough for the seperatists. The knives will come out soon.
