I really encourage folks to consider the comments Ranjit Bath, Tina Lynn, Chris Scott and Daryl Burroughs have written in this thread. These folks understand the context of Premier Smith’s aspirations for growth in Alberta’s population.
Some folks have mentioned “10” or “15 minute cities” in here. For all its criticism, Bill 20 is a direct response by the Premier Smith government to restrict left-leaning municipal government’s like Edmonton and Calgary currently have from taking this route. And Premier Smith pushed for this because she heard clearly that Albertans do not want 10 or 15-minute-cities.
Marco… I’m sure you remember Premier Smith saying at her Town Hall in Calgary a couple of weeks ago to Calgary - Lougheed constituency association President Darrell Komick that her goals of increased population are not AT ALL “short term”, but a long term strategy to ensure Alberta has the voice within our nation to match or exceed Quebec. She also talked about immigration being supported by initiatives like the Temporary Foreign Workers program that ensures a job and a place in our economy. That population growth is measured and sustainable. Why don’t you mention that in your sharing of “sound bites”?
If you are going to grab “a little” of what the Premier says for the purpose of getting folks riled up, I think that’s quite irresponsible.
Please, fellow conservatives, go to these Town Halls and engage with our Premier. I don’t believe we have had a leader in our province in my lifetime who listens and cares more what their fellow citizens think than Premier Smith.
If you think she’s not listening, I am happy to debate you.
I learned many years ago that being heard and getting your way are two different things. Albertans are being heard. I believe you’ll see that very clearly in the legal changes forthcoming in the Alberta Bill of Rights.
Premier Smith is very much about CHOICE.

“All eyes should be firmly placed front and centre on the current situation between Mark Carney and our Canada Pension Plan (CPP).
His furtive sleight of hand is in action once again. In short, his latest method of eventually transferring our hard-earned fund over to his bedfellow Brookfield has begun.
The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Brookfield have launched a $50 billion “Maple Fund.”
Their explanation is that it will be utilized to funnel capital into critical infrastructure and other industries across Canada. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
In 1965, the CPP, introduced by the government, was initiated in order to assist people who did not have a retirement pension. Employees gave a certain percentage of their income to the fund, and the employers matched that figure. To be exact, 15% of income before taxes.
This fund consists of our hard-earned money, and we are receiving less than half of what that ...
Shannon Stubbs MP from the Alberta Lakeland riding.
Behind the Liberals’ Real Agenda: “Canada’s economic foundations are being rewritten by a stolen Liberal majority determined to reshape the country in its own image.
They might be saying the right things, but they are dead set on creeping more into your life, provincial, territorial, and municipal jurisdiction, and into Canada's private sector.”
She bluntly and concisely describes the Carney Great Reset Globalist Agenda for Canada.
(This is 7 minutes of wow a politician gets it and says it out loud).
(FYI, The Federal Lakeland riding district's largest communities are Bonnyville, St. Paul, and the Alberta part of Lloydminster.)
