Guess she got the message and now the backpeddling begins.
It has come to our attention that certain individuals or organizations are attempting to misuse the 1905 Committee’s brand to create false narratives about our purpose. Since our inception, we have faced numerous attacks, seemingly from those who wish to discredit our mission by spreading fabrications and misinformation.
For those familiar with our work, you know our message has always been clear: we are committed to promoting principled governance, sound policies, and holding the government accountable. We believe that a promise made must be a promise kept. Politicians are accountable to the people who elected them, and they must act in the best interest of all Albertans, upholding truth and the rule of law.
Albertans are frustrated with the cycle of empty speeches, broken promises, and poor performance from our elected officials. Too often, we hear excuses for why they cannot deliver on their commitments. But there comes a time when enough is enough. Real change requires sustained public pressure, and the 1905 Committee has been applying that pressure. Our efforts have not gone unnoticed. However, instead of addressing the issues we've raised, some have chosen the easier path of attacking us with false narratives and outright lies.
To set the record straight, we want to address the recent rumors head-on. The claims that the 1905 Committee has paid leftists to join the UCP to vote against Danielle Smith are false and defamatory. This raises a critical question however: who is spreading these lies, and why?
As an organization we value individual freedom and respect each person’s right to vote according to their conscience. The 1905 Committee has always asked for your support on our policies, but we have never dictated how anyone should vote on the issue of Danielle Smith’s leadership review. That decision is yours alone.
In today's climate, challenging the government's narrative is risky, as those in power often retaliate against those who dare to dissent.
While there are groups and individuals that may seek to remove Danielle Smith, this is not a directive of the 1905 Committee. Our intent is to hold government to account, regardless of leadership.
Thank you for your continued support in standing up for principled governance and the future of Alberta.
Sincerely,
1905 Committee

A few days ago, I had a discussion with a widely respected western businessman, and good friend, about the current independence movement in Alberta and Saskatchewan. I was intrigued by his thoughts about how we might advance the goal of greater western autonomy at this time in our history.
We agreed that, despite the gallant efforts of many, for far too many years, the flame for fairness has been repeatedly ignored and snuffed out, again and again. The harsh reality is, if an insufficient number of westerners don’t take the issue of independence seriously, why should eastern Canadians?
Unsurprisingly my savvy friend raised a couple of points during our conversation that I have been gnawing on since. The first was nothing new, although for at least two reasons it has become more time sensitive.
First is the disastrous state of Canada and the fact that the federal Liberal government continues to chart a ...

Canada Can't Be Fixed. Alberta Needs to Chart Its Own Course
JEFFREY RATH:
Friends, I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it. Alberta’s future does not lie within a broken, dysfunctional Canada. It lies in our own hands, building an independent Alberta, run by Albertans, for Albertans.
I had the privilege of addressing a room full of hardworking, freedom-loving Albertans recently. If you missed it, I want you to hear exactly what I told them. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and the time for polite conversations is long gone.
The Truth They Don’t Want You to Hear
For over 100 years, Alberta has been treated like Ottawa’s colony. We’ve been stripped of wealth, muzzled by regulation, and told to sit quietly while Eastern politicians decide our fate. Meanwhile, our resources bankroll Quebec’s surpluses and our families pay the price with higher taxes, unemployment, and lost opportunities.
