The UCP’s Referendum Is Heading to a Disastrous Outcome | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Whatever happens on Oct. 19, the United Conservative Party of Premier Danielle Smith will have left Alberta a worse place than it was before the 10 referendums scheduled to be voted on that day. After the ballots have been counted, Alberta will be angrier, more divided, more radicalized and, not incidentally, a worse place to invest money than it was before. A “yes” vote in the separation referendum will set the stage for another, supposedly legally binding separation vote — in 2027, before a pr
As AI Data Centre Backlash Builds, What Will Smith Do? | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Now that voters everywhere in North America are turning against artificial intelligence data centres hard and fast, what’s Alberta’s United Conservative Party going to do? They’ve spent two years planning to woo data centres to Alberta as if they were the greatest industrial development since the invention of the steam engine. They even quietly created a special “concierge service” to make it easy for as many as 40 massive AI data centres to set up their noisy, polluting shops in rural Alberta.
As Carney Stands Tall Against Trump, the Timing Is Ideal | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If a country had to pick a moment to strike back with targeted countervailing tariffs at the Donald Trump administration’s habitual bad-faith trade bargaining, surely it would be difficult to imagine a better moment than the day after Labour Day 2026. As is now well understood by almost everybody on both sides of the world’s longest undefended border, tariffs are going to hit us all regardless of whether we live in the United States or Canada. But unlike the president of the United States, Canad
Smith Reveals Plans for a Binding Separation Referendum | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If Alberta separatists manage to eke out a victory in Danielle Smith’s Oct. 19 referendum, she says she’ll “have to” move quickly to a binding referendum before voters have a chance to pass judgment on her United Conservative Party government in a general election. So say a couple of far-right, pro-separatist outlets that are normally simpatico with UCP positions, on most issues, anyway. As of Wednesday night, no one else seems to have reported the Alberta premier’s remarks at a closed-door UCP
The UCP’s Phoney Claim About Alberta’s ‘Distinct Legal Tradition’ | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sorry, folks, but encouraging lawyers to dress up in cowboy hats and Cuban heels like extras on the set of Yellowstone for the Calgary Stampede’s 10 days every July does not a distinct society make. What’s more, it’s about as close as Alberta’s going to get to a “distinct legal tradition,” too. Yeah, Alberta’s United Conservative Party is suffering from péquiste envy again, a psychological condition that flares up whenever Liberals are in power in Ottawa, causing Albertans to try to persuade the
