Trudeau's list of enimies are piling up

I believe that this will all serves to elevate Danielle Smiths popularity!

She should appoint a special rapatoure to look into hiring one of her relatives to look into it.

[universalbeing]

Of course if it was a liberal then it would’ve been ignored 🤐

[peppersadventure]

Really funny, they go after her but not JT...

[koddig]

So to be clear a provincial leader is not allowed to inquire about a provincial case and to seek counsel on what can be done in that case?

[VanMan]

To claim Danielle Smith has broken ethics rules while Trudeau does what he does is a complete joke.

Premier Smith, I don't think you need to worry. All you did was listen to a call and express concern. If anything, Notley should concerned because Trudeau has done much worse under the ethics committee and it just boosted him up in the public

Stands up for alberta! Get blindsided by her disingeuous opponents. Typical.

I don't think I have seen a political party grasp at straws harder than Rachel Notley's NDP has. Once the Ethics investigation is over and inevitably concludes what is already evident (the fact that following the Albertan Ministry of Justice's advice as laid out, is not concerned interference) they should have to pay out of pocket for the wasted tax dollars.

She's awesome! You're lucky Alberta!

Still better voting UCP by a million miles than a Trudeau/Singh/Notley coalition.

[MrSpaceace]

Yup keep investigating everyone with a different opinion this is brutal political vengeance

[sandramilligan]

What kind of announcer is this??…….OMGG……speak plain English………OMGG……Unreal

[jiggycalzone]

Does she get to choose her own investigator? Maybe shes got a childhood family friend who can do it like the current PM

[dwight]

Don’t worry Danielle, Turdy has skated on his 6 or 7 screw-ups, I’m sure you’ll be OK, even without a “ special raconteur “

[nicolaslavigne]

I'm seriously thinking of moving to Alberta. She is just awesome

[Oilers]

She didn’t set up her own investigation team and this is a witch hunt. I live in Ontario and I’d love to have her as a premier. Doug is okay but she’s impressive so far.
