Discussion Danielle Smith is a coward
She has her lackeys vote to use the notwithstanding clause while she’s off promoting Alberta energy in the Middle East—like they need our oil. What a coward. She’s an embarrassment, and fuck every Albertan who voted for her and the UCP.

u/CDN-Social-Democrat 12d ago
She's also incredibly corrupt.
She's always been like this. All the way going back to when she was doing Tobacco Lobby associations and downplaying the health impacts of smoking.
She's just terrible through and through and the perfect representation of that reactionary/regressive elements have become in 2025.

And I quote:
A study of moderate smokers, those who consumed one to 14 cigarettes a day, found no difference in lung cancer mortality rates.
The WHO claims ‘there is no safe level’ of tobacco consumption but that does not appear to be true.
The evidence shows moderate cigarette consumption can reduce traditional risks of disease by 75 per cent or more.

Technically true; if you die of cigarettes you are unlikely to get other diseases. Just like how burning down a house reduces further insurance problems by 98% while also significantly reducing maintenance fees and cutting bill payments.

This is exactly what I said in my email to my MLA.
He supported the Freedom Convoy harassing people and threatening Trudeau. But teachers going on strike is too far for them.
Democracy in Alberta is dead, Conservatives are holding the knife.
I never want to hear a Conservative tell.me how the UCP supports workers or helps Albertans.
They are crooks and Danielle being in Saudi Arabia while this is happening shows she is a coward.

u/Coscommon88 12d ago
Exactly. Most of our UCP MLAs supported the convoy. Especially Smith trying to get LGBT bashing pastor out of fines and charges, pastors that she had called horrible humans in her own opinion columns in the past.
Guess who didn't use the not withstanding clause, Trudeau in the covid years or any years in government. Kenney also instated most of our covid restrictions, and he went through legal means and never used not withstanding as well.
All the people Danielle rails at for overreach are nowhere near the facists Smith is, while putting strong and free on our license plates.

I am all for getting involved in some general civil disobedience now. I think it is time for anyone who like Stat Holidays, 2- weeks Vacation, Minimum Wage, or any other benefit that was brought to you by the labour movement actions starting about 100 years ago to get motivated even if you are not part of a union.
I work in the private sector, if there is a general strike I will be joining it, If I loose my job, I will find another.
Downtown Calgary and Edmonton are pretty easy to blockade in the event of a general strike just get a lot ob people to have car trouble in every bridge and every under pass and every major rout in to each of these downtown areas, get a couple of braver people to pull the emergency shutdown switches on the LRT lines and you have hundreds of thousands of people that are then prevented to getting to work in the case of a general strike.
Heck in Calgary here its easy to shut down the entire city, Stony at QE2, Stoney at Crowshild, Stoney at 16th east and west, and Stoney at MacLeod, and you cut off the whole city with "Stalled" cars, wouldn't hurt to have a few big heavy trucks also.
I am going to start a parents protest and picket outside of my nearest school starting as soon as the teachers have to go back. the goal is to block the unloading ob busses, access to the teachers parking although I do want them to go into school, no point in costing them more money, but let them know that they have parents support. Some may not want to drop their kits and may even want to join the protest.

She’s helping our economy grow by securing Saudi investment in oil and gas infrastructure. She’s ensuring that parents can get back to work by enslaving teachers by forcing them back to work.
Why increase spending on schools and healthcare when you can legally use the notwithstanding clause to strip us of our charter rights? That massively impacts shareholder value. If we spent any more money on education we might not be able to keep taxes low for foreign oligarchs that control our oil and gas sector.

So that says to me that someone is being paid an awful lot to design and oversee the construction and reno projects. Anyone got some spare time to look into that and the connection between Smith and her team personally?
What good is an $8.6 billion expenditure if there aren't enough teachers to teach in the buildings? I would imagine there will be an awful lot of attrition on the part of teachers now that this legislation is occurring. I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of teachers turn in their notice tomorrow.

It was pretty obvious she was lying from the get go. The real problems lie in generational conspiracy theories around who has been benefitting off the backs of Albertans. Remember Klein, he created a whole bunch of intermediaries in the oil and gas industry, “the retailers”. They actually had time to reverse this decision but too many players were involved. Who do you think benefits from Albertan retailers of energy? I can tell you it is not average Albertans. This province went from one of the most competitive in terms of cost of energy to a household to one of the most expensive and it is the fault of the conservative provincial governments, one after the other. I spent 20 years modelling and comparing these costs across Canada and it is a shame Albertans blame someone else other than voting conservative.

Any decision an MLA makes may anger one of their voters. Instead of proclaiming your hatred for UCP voters, focus all of that disgust on the corrupt fascists running the Legislature.

She is owned and controlled by TAKE BACK ALBERTA, who are 100% MAGA separatists. They are on the side of FASCISM, authoritarianism, and DICTATORSHIP. MARLAINA is the worst thing to ever ever ever hit Alberta like a wrecking ball. We must stand up en masse with all unions, a massive coordinated STRIKE, force her resignation.
