As an Albertan, it's relieving to hear our premier having this discussion 👍

[TheLumberJacked]

I wasn’t so sure about her at first. But in spite of the provincial NDP always trying to make her out as someone else, she has in fact been proven to be a very smart, sharp witted and knowledgeable leader for you Lucky Albertans. She’s so well spoken, she is articulate and she appears to do what she says she will. Who doesn’t like that?

[rickpackham]

Danielle is the perfect example of what we should expect out of politians. What a incredible well spoken, cognizant person. Answers questions directly.

[MisterMonsterMan]

Danielle Smith has been a breath of fresh air in Alberta so far. If we can get at least 2 terms each of Poillievre and Smith, Canada could make a lot of progress.

God bless alberta. As a newfie who was dragged out of poverty by the energy sector thank you.

Small town Ontario boy here. Moved to Alberta because of this woman and the Albertan spirit.

Hopefully someday Danielle Smith can run for prime minister, she is one of our brightest politicians

[gypsysoul]

Super proud to call Danielle my Premier!! ❤️

[ninagill]

I’ve never felt prouder to be an Albertan than I do with Smith in office🇨🇦🇨🇦

I was born in Quebec in 1990. I was told my whole life that the ''english in the Ouest'' are our enemy. I'm sure it's the same on the other side. I woke up thanks to Jordan Peterson few years ago. I'll never vote liberal EVER again. I'd like to apologize on the behalf of Quebec and thank the West for standing your ground. We would be nothing without you. I am now proud to call Jordan Peterson, Pierre Poilievre, Danielle Smith and Gad Saad my fellow Canadians. You give me hope. Thank you for fighting for us. Steven Guilbault is the deputy in my neighbourhood, I'm not even sure there will be a conservative nominee where I live, but I would not vote for them even if they give me 1 million dollars.

I love Danielle smith she’s doing great things for Alberta!

[Sekretk]

Being an Ukrainian refugee I came to Canada 4 month ago. On my first days I’ve seen mrs. Smith on TV and felt like she is the proper leader for prople with common sense.
And now, I’m sitting in Toronto, totaly broke, no money, no shelter, sleeping in airport since i wasn’t able to find the job in this city. (still trying though)
Regretting, that I haven’t moved to Alberta right away…
This lady represent hope

Premier Smith you are doing a great job and we are so very fortunate to have you steering Alberta and the potential for the world

[hobbyguy]

Wow.. a politician that reads, educates herself and thinks deeply about things. In addition, you have to be intelligent to be interviewed by Jordan Peterson. Otherwise, you will look foolish. Good on you, Premier Smith! Thank you for your service!
