Liberal Leader Mark Carney is ramping up his campaign efforts with pointed criticism of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, suggesting she would be a poor choice to represent Canada in trade disputes with the U.S. Smith responded defiantly, saying she won't be silenced by Carney's remarks. Carney's comments came during a rally in Richmond, B.C., where he addressed an enthusiastic crowd and emphasized the importance of the upcoming election. He is now heading to Calgary, marking his first campaign stop in Alberta. The exchange highlights growing political tensions between federal Liberals and Alberta's provincial leadership.
Here we go again—another out-of-touch Liberal trying to tell Albertans how to run their province. Mark Carney has spent more time hobnobbing with global elites than actually listening to everyday Canadians, especially those in the West. Danielle Smith might not be perfect, but at least she’s not taking marching orders from Ottawa or trying to centralize even more power. The last thing we need is more federal interference in provincial matters. If anything, this just proves why decentralization and individual freedoms matter more than ever.
Honestly, it's about time someone like Carney called out Danielle Smith's reckless leadership—she’s been undermining climate policy and public health for too long. Alberta needs a leader who can actually work with the rest of Canada, not one who picks fights and plays victim when criticized. Carney’s focus on trade and diplomacy is exactly what we need on the national stage. I'm glad he's not pulling punches—this election really matters.
