🇨🇦 Canadians boycotting the United States are actually moving the needle. Las Vegas alone has taken a four-billion-dollar hit because Canadians chose not to go. The American alcohol industry is down another nine hundred million. That is real impact.

If you've noticed similarities between Smith/UCP and Trump/MAGA, there's a reason.

Never since 1905, when Alberta became a province, was a petition with nearly half a million signatures tabled in the Legislature.
Never was a Premier presented with such clear choice between right and wrong.
