The Beaverton is a satire website. This is not reality.
Except itβs not satire. She really is a traitorous POS.
Didnt she break with federal government after their counter tariff initiative after Trump suggested turning Canada into American state?
Then went to mar a lago to kiss daddy's ring?
What am I missing here?
Ultimately she's a whore for Alberta's oil and gas industry, and Trump is just a means to an end. She'd put out just as readily for a Japanese tentacle monster if it promised to buy oil from Alberta. So this isn't really about Trump or the US at all.
Well as long as all Canadians benefit from "Alberta's oil and gas industry" than I guess she is doing her job as elected?
It's . . . arguable. The Alberta oil and gas industry doesn't really benefit "all Canadians", just the ones working in that industry, and most of us who whose paychecks don't depend on Alberta oil think the environmental oversight needs to be tightened up. In terms of advocating for the short-term interests of the subset of Albertans that elected her, Smith could be said to be doing her job. Problem is, she's doing so in a manner that goes against the long-term interests of everyone in the country, including the people that elected her.
Mmmm, not quite. Industry and good paying jobs are not worth bending the knee everytime king little hands makes a quip about whatever. It shows weakness and shows that we will do whatever it takes to appease.
