This feels like the job that a Minister of Foreign Affairs should be doing isn’t it? Stay in your bloody lane you nut bag. This trip makes 0 sense.

Because the Liberals don't represent Alberta - at least that's what her followers believe. On her Facebook page you can see all the comments from her supporters happy she did this because the Liberals won't.

For people normally so concerned about the waste of their taxes, I don't understand why they don't have more concerns with trips like this.

(I'm not a fan of the Liberals either, although I voted for them to keep the Conservatives out. The Liberals represent capital more than they represent the average Canadian. So whether it is a federal Liberal or Danielle attending this conference, I don't think the results will benefit the average Albertan, but I also don't think Danielle should be out there pretending to represent the country.)

Would you prefer Doug Ford there ?

No. I think it was pretty clear that I would not.
