Alberta – anti-WEF Danielle Smith wins a majority

ER Editor: The western Canadian province of Alberta had its elections 2 days ago, on May 29. Its premier, the relatively new and apparently non-globalist former journalist, Danielle Smith, remains in office, to the relief of many. She went head to head with former provincial premier, Rachel Notley, for the NDP party, a globalist hangout keeping the Trudeau Liberals in power federally. Result: 49 to 38 seats respectively (44 were required for a majority). Smith, of the UCP, famously came out and defended those who had refused the Covid injection.

Alberta matters because, generally speaking, it is the Canadian province that is taking a clear stand against key federal policies from the Trudeau government, which many plausibly describe as Communist, but coming from an elite running all our government using the World Economic Forum as a front, this could also be correctly termed Fascist. The province also has significant energy resources that the feds could wreck. Alberta very much matters.

True North News from yesterday – Danielle Smith wins majority in Alberta Election

Dr. William Makis, a resident of the province – 2023 Alberta Election results – Rural Alberta pauses Canada’s slide into communism – and former Premier Jason Kenney’s COVID Cabinet members who sold out Albertans to big pharma are punished & fired! Makis notes the 6 former politicians in Jason Kenney’s ‘lock’em down and vaccinate them’ government, who fell victim at this election (Kenney was the Covid premier). Makis offers Smith some help, noting in the last paragraph —

I know where the bodies are buried, which Alberta law firms managed the corruption of Alberta’s healthcare system, and which Court of King’s Bench and Court of Appeal judges were bought off to participate in very serious AHS (Alberta Health Services) crimes that resulted in 1000s of Alberta patient deaths, before and during the pandemic.

(LifeSiteNews) –– Alberta’s United Conservative Party (UCP) under its anti-COVID lockdown leader Danielle Smith won a majority government last night, in a decisive victory over the socialist Alberta New Democratic Party (NDP) under former premier Rachel Notley. 

The unofficial results show the UCP winning 49 seats to the NDP’s 38, as of press time, with the popular vote being 44 percent for the NDP, and 53 percent for the UCP.  

Smith will now lead Alberta as its premier for the next four years. Of note is that there will be recounts in some ridings, as two in Calgary have the NDP with a lead of only a handful of votes.  

Most of rural Alberta voted for the UCP, while all of Edmonton voted NDP, with Calgary having a mixed bag, but losing some seats to the NDP.  

Smith’s campaign focused on lower taxes, less government, and pushing back against radical federal legislation targeting Alberta’s oil and gas industry.  

In her victory speech last night, Smith wasted no time in going after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, warning him not to mess with Alberta’s energy sector.  

“We need to come together no matter how we have voted to stand shoulder-to-shoulder against soon-to-be-announced Ottawa policies that would significantly harm our provincial economy,” said Smith to loud cheers.  

“Now, we’ve been made aware that in the coming weeks, Justin Trudeau was planning on bringing forward new restrictions on electricity generation from natural gas that will not only massively increase your power bills but will also endanger the integrity and reliability of our entire power grid which we rely on during our cold and dark Alberta winters,” said Smith. 

Smith then said “Well, hopefully, the prime minister and his caucus are watching tonight.”

Late last week, former Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper gave his endorsement to Alberta’s UCP under Smith, urging everyone to vote for her as premier for the sake of Alberta’s economy. (ER: Say what? Is he wearing an ankle bracelet? Harper was known to be a deep state appointee.)

Last fall, Smith and the UCP passed into law the Sovereignty Act, which asserts Alberta’s control over federal government overreach. 

When Smith met with Trudeau earlier this year, she gave him a frosty reception, telling him bluntly that oil and gas are here to stay and that her province will not allow attacks on its energy industry to continue through his “just transition” green energy agenda. 

While Smith herself, as previously reported by LifeSiteNews, has a track-record of being pro-gay “marriage” and pro-abortion, a fact that has made her a target of the province’s largest pro-life organization, many of her now-elected members do hold solid pro-life views, as noted by Campaign Life Coalition in an email to members on Monday. 

Unlike her UCP predecessor, Jason Kenney, Smith has taken a pro-freedom approach to COVID, even once noting that the “unvaccinated” were the “most discriminated against” group she has seen in her lifetime. 

As for now-defeated Notley, she served as Alberta’s premier from 2015 to 2019, and while in power her government targeted faith-based institutions, including publicly funded Catholic and Christian schools.  

in 2018, David Eggen, Notley’s then-education minister, went as far as demanding that faith-based schools purge religious content from their policies.  

More recently, during the COVID-19 so-called pandemic, Notley had suggested that the province enact a door-to-door COVID vaccine campaign. She was also a vocal proponent of lockdowns as a means to control the virus.
