The tension between Ottawa and Alberta is rising. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently attacked Premier Danielle Smith’s plans to restrict children from medically transitioning genders. This, after his environment minister demanded the province curb its oil industry and overhaul its gas-dependent power grid. Smith joins Brian Lilley this week, and says that while she would prefer to collaborate with Trudeau, she’ll fight if necessary. Smith also tells Lilley why she thinks Trudeau has already begun campaigning for the next election by beating up on Alberta. In that case, she says to him, “let’s just do it” — challenging Trudeau to call an election where she says Canadians can decide whether they prefer federal-provincial confrontation or co-operation. (Recorded Feb. 22, 2024.)

    She aint wrong. Trudeau has lost every right to claim he speaks for Canadians.

    Justin Trudeau: easily the most divisive Prime Minister in Canada's history.

    Trudeau is like a child who would rather break his toy, than let someone else play with it. He views Canada as his toy.

    It's a strange feeling to be proud of a politician that represents me. Thank you for that, and all that you do, Danielle!
