She thinks the relationship with Ottawa can get back on track after a 10-year trainwreck when the only light at the end of the tunnel was a train headed straight for a collision with Alberta.

Smith says Carney told her he wants a “win-win” with Alberta and the premier is very impressed with the prime minister’s attitude.

A newshound asks Smith what she thinks of the push of former premier Jason Kenney and Calgary Liberal MP Corey Hogan to keep Alberta in Canada.

“I’m with them,” says Smith.

“I’ve been doing that from the beginning.”

    So when Justin Trudeau turned to Mark Carney on how to improve economic growth, he was misguided?

    "Paul Beaudry served as deputy governor of the Bank of Canada from 2019 and 2023 and is now a professor at the Vancouver School of Economics at UBC.

    “Relative to other countries, we’re getting collectively poorer,” Beaudry told CBC News. “And it’s not only relative to the U.S., it’s relative to a lot of other countries. We’re in the laggard group.”"

    The deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada doesn’t know what he’s talking about?

    Post your study or stats or whatever that supports your position. I’ll stick with the assessment of Carney and Beaudry.
