EZRA LEVANT | Danielle Smith challenges Ottawa as immigration tensions reach boiling point
For decades, immigration policy in Canada has been treated as sacred ground; untouchable, unquestionable, beyond debate. Political leaders nodded along, media gatekeepers shut down dissent and anyone who suggested the numbers might be too high was quickly branded intolerant. That consensus is now cracking. This week, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced a 2026 provincial referendum asking Albertans whether they support taking greater provincial control over immigration impacts. Not control of the borders, that’s federal jurisdiction, but control over what provinces actually manage: health care, education, social programs and voting rules.
