Smith doesn’t need a mandate to fuck over Alberta. It’s fascinating that she didn’t hold a referendum oh publicly funding charter and private schools, or on introducing two-tier for-profit healthcare. No, she just decided that she wanted to flaunt Alberta’s hatred of Ottawa and brown people. Because let’s be honest, anti-immigration sentiment is all about people who look and dress differently. Nobody’s going bat an eyelash at Aussies coming over to work the ski hills, unless they’re pointed to as the “See, I’m not racist” example.
