Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has vowed to restore public safety throughout the province following reports that gang members have infiltrated sprawling homeless encampments in Edmonton.
“Guns. Deadly fentanyl. Sexual assaults. It ends now! Violent and organized gangs are terrorizing our vulnerable populations within encampments,” Ms. Smith said in a Jan. 3 post on X. “This is not safe for anyone. My government will continue to do what is necessary to restore public safety throughout Alberta.”
