Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is calling on Prime Minister Mark Carney to begin resetting Alberta’s strained relationship with Ottawa following his federal election victory on April 28, saying her province will “no longer tolerate” policies she says threaten Alberta’s economy.
The Liberals held on to power for a fourth consecutive term, winning 169 seats–three short of a majority–according to preliminary results. Smith said most Albertans are “deeply frustrated” by the Liberals forming government for a fourth term, arguing Ottawa has “overtly attacked our provincial economy almost unabated for the past 10 years.”
