Albertans tire of fights with Ottawa, as Danielle Smith ups the ‘anti’
Albertans tire of fights with Ottawa, as Danielle Smith ups the ‘anti’
This week, Albertans saw glimpses of the Trudeau government’s strategy for dealing with new Premier Danielle Smith and her devotion to getting tough with Ottawa, or at least Liberal Ottawa.
This early strategy is simply to show up, often with novelty-sized cheques in hand. While Smith won her rural byelection this week, the Liberals barnstormed the province to promote their fall economic statement.
Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne visited Edmonton to subsidize a hydrogen project https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/federal-alberta-governments-pour-461-million-into-edmonton-hydrogen-plant-1.6645228; Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland spoke to the Calgary Chamber of Commerce https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=491042166389463&set=a.297120702448278; Seniors Minister Kamal Khera gave grants to seniors projects https://livewirecalgary.com/2022/11/07/calgary-student-newcomers-interest-payments-federal-student-loans/; and Calgary MP George Chahal announced support for high-speed internet.
The parry from the United Conservative Party premier seemed traditional: a public letter to the prime minister, reprising grievances about the carbon tax, the project assessment Bill C-69 and energy security. Smith’s promised next act, later this month, is the temperature-raiser: the untraditional (and constitutionally-questionable) Alberta Sovereignty Act.
But a funny thing’s happened over these last few years, as the UCP determined Jason Kenney’s anti-Ottawa act needed a more bellicose upgrade and installed Smith. Albertans have gotten less angry on federal issues, with a waning appetite for firewalls, fair deals and similar programs than at any point in the last four years.|Read more https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-ottawa-danielle-smith-janet-brown-poll-not-angry-1.6646638|
