UCP leader Danielle Smith finished ahead in the Alberta election with 49 seats, beating NDP leader Rachel Notley who only gained 38. In her victory speech, Smith challenged the Trudeau government’s carbon tax and climate policies.
Next, two Liberal ministers faced backlash over the weekend after sending out tweets celebrating drag entertainment as “one of Canada’s fundamental freedoms” and raising awareness about “Menstrual Hygiene Day.”
Also, the Liberal government has yet to retrieve nearly $133,000 paid to “anti-racist” consultant Laith Marouf, who has a history of making antisemitic remarks.
