@ABDanielleSmith 🤮

I am fiercely loyal to Alberta and Canada and will be voting for our province to remain in confederation Kicking the can down the road only prolongs an emotional and important debate, and muzzling the voices of hundreds of thousands of Albertans who want to be heard is unjustifiable in a free and democratic society. It’s time to have a vote, understand the will of Albertans, and move on. Read my full op-ed here: calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

@ABDanielleSmith @RyanGir02451591 🤮

I know the last decade under the Trudeau-NDP was difficult and Albertans have every right to be frustrated. But thanks to the leadership of Albertans, the tide is finally turning in our favour. The vast majority of Trudeau’s ‘9 bad laws’ have been scrapped or reformed. Investment has begun flowing back into energy, tech, and agriculture, and we are creating more jobs than the rest of the country combined. Now is not the time to give up hope. Now is the time to double down and help Canada reach its incredible potential. With Alberta leading the way, we can turn Canada into one of the most strong and prosperous economies in the world. On October 19, I will be voting for Alberta to remain in Canada. I hope you will join me in doing so.

Many municipalities operate on bylaws and policies that were drafted years, sometimes decades, ago. Regular reviews and updates to these documents are therefore not just beneficial but essential to good municipal management. Read more here: procido.com/2026/05/18/why…

Our trade agreement with China is delivering for Canadian farmers.

Today’s announcement by Prime Minister Mark Carney and Premier Danielle Smith is an important signal indicating where investment capital is heading in Canada. Based on Alberta’s industrial emissions profile and the new federal-provincial energy and industrial carbon pricing framework, approximately $30–70 Billion CAD could be available in Alberta over the next decade for sustainability-focused projects like carbon capture, electrification, AI/data centre power infrastructure, transmission, and industrial decarbonization. Prime Minister Carney and Premier Smith deserve credit for recognizing that global investors are looking for stable, long-term energy and infrastructure policy supported by federal-provincial cooperation and investment certainty. Meanwhile, Saskatchewan weakened its own industrial carbon pricing framework in 2025 and has directed significant industrial carbon pricing money toward Alberta-based companies and projects instead of building Saskatchewan-based infrastructure and industrial technology projects focused on sustainability. Saskatchewan has incredible advantages, but unless we start creating long-term investment certainty and a serious industrial strategy, we risk continuing to watch capital, opportunity, and highly skilled young people leave Saskatchewan for Alberta. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Flooding in Saskatchewan? Don’t move water until you read this article. You likely need approvals—and getting it wrong = liability. DM me if this is happening to you. And share this—someone you know may be dealing with flooding right now.

I was pleased to read the recent joint statement issued by Prime Minister @MarkJCarney and President @alexstubb reaffirming the strong and growing relationship between Canada and Finland. The statement highlights cooperation in Arctic and maritime security, defence, advanced technology, AI, quantum innovation, and trade—areas of increasing importance to both nations. As Honorary Consul for Finland in Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories, I am encouraged to see this continued momentum in Canada-Finland relations and the shared commitment to innovation, resilience, and values-based partnership. There are significant opportunities ahead for business, research, northern development, and cross-border collaboration between our countries. #Finland #Canada #Saskatchewan #NorthwestTerritories #Innovation #Trade #Diplomacy presidentti.fi/en/joint-state…

The @SaskUnitedParty just dropped a blistering Top 50 list documenting @PremierScottMoe’s pattern of ignoring people across Saskatchewan. The pattern is hard to ignore—no matter where you sit politically👇 1. He didn't listen to nurses. Scott Moe's Health Minister accepted an invitation to address the Saskatchewan Union of Nurses' annual convention — but simply didn't show up. No notice. No explanation. And then the Sask. Party lied about when they received the invitation. 2. He didn't listen to rural communities losing their ERs. Five hospitals in Saskatchewan remained closed for a combined 3,684 days. Communities across rural and remote Saskatchewan were left without emergency rooms — sometimes for weeks at a time — while Moe's government dismissed the crisis. 3. He didn’t listen to 31,000 frontline health workers, who called on Moe, budget after budget, to address wages and retention. His 2025 budget spent less on health care than the year before. 4. He didn't listen to families watching hospitals close in his own backyard. The hospitals and health centres in Moe's own constituency of Rosthern-Shellbrook faced 43 days of service disruptions between 2019 and 2024 — including 13 days with no emergency services. 5. He didn't listen to people left stranded by ER closures. In 2026 alone, hundreds of ER closures across rural Saskatchewan. Internal Saskatchewan Health Authority data showed a real-time disruption map exists — and for too long Moe refused to make it public, hiding information that could be the difference between life and death. 6. He didn't listen to seniors in long-term care. A Regina woman watched both her parents suffer in understaffed, private long-term care homes — one developing bedsores, another given the wrong medication. When Moe stood up and said minimum standards exist, the victims’ daughter called it a lie. 7. He didn't listen to Prince Albert. Victoria Hospital in Prince Albert experienced 25 service disruptions totalling 113 days between 2018 and 2025. 643 service closures in 18 months — 3,362 lost service days — and Moe’s Sask Party called it "isolated." 8. He didn't listen to the people of La Ronge, who had been asking for an emergency room upgrade for decades. 9. He didn't listen to teachers, prolonging a bitter dispute and hurting Saskatchewan students. In May 2024, 90% of Saskatchewan teachers — with 92.2% voter turnout — rejected Moe's government's contract offer. 10. He didn't listen to students with complex needs. Moe and Education Minister Jeremy Cockrill repeated over and over that "classroom complexity is best dealt with by school divisions" — offloading responsibility while per-student funding dropped and class sizes grew. 11. He didn't listen to the data on education spending. Saskatchewan's share of the provincial budget going to K-12 education dropped from 26% in 2014-15 to 21.92% in 2023-24. Saskatchewan had the lowest education spending increase in Canada from 2012 to 2020 — just 5.2%, compared to a national average of 17.8%. 12. He didn't listen to the 2025 Johnson Shoyama report, which found a systematic pattern of decisions concentrating provincial power, reducing local accountability, and undermining democratic governance of education in Saskatchewan. 13. He didn't listen to parents and children on school safety. Despite teachers raising alarms about school safety, lack of Educational Assistants, and unsupported students with complex needs, Moe has done nothing to address EA-to-student ratios or long-term classroom support funding. In 2024, a Saskatchewan child was set on fire in her school and nearly killed by another child with complex needs. 14. He didn't listen when people asked him to cut the PST.  In 2017, the Saskatchewan Party hiked the PST from 5% to 6% and expanded it to children's clothing, restaurant meals, and snack foods. Years of calls to reverse it have been ignored. 15. He didn't listen when his own budget proved his affordability claims false. A family of four in Saskatchewan making $75,000 a year pays over $1,100 more annually in provincial taxes and electricity than the same family in Vancouver — according to pages 61–62 of Moe's own budget. 16. He didn't listen to calls to remove PST on construction. The PST on construction labour and materials adds an estimated $484 million in costs annually. Municipalities, businesses, and Saskatchewan industries and residents have repeatedly called for its removal but Moe has refused. 17. He didn't listen to residents on the SaskPower rate hike. In December 2025, Moe was directly asked in Question Period whether power rates would be hiked. He said it wasn't being contemplated. Less than a month later, a $136 million rate hike application appeared — and he went ahead with it. 18. He didn't listen to industry leaders on the power rate hike. The Saskatchewan Industrial Energy Consumer Association filed a submission opposing the $136 million SaskPower rate hike, warning it would kill jobs and drive away investment. Moe's government pushed ahead anyway. 19. He didn't listen to the 82% of Saskatchewan people struggling financially. Angus Reid data showed 82% of Saskatchewan residents were either financially worse off or spinning their wheels compared to the previous year. Only 18% reported being better off. Moe continued to bluster, declaring Saskatchewan the most affordable province. 20. He didn't listen to Sask United's call to cut the PST in half. The Sask United Party ran on cutting the PST from 6% to 3%, saving the average family $1,400 per year. Moe dismissed the idea and refused to discuss meaningful PST relief. 21. He didn't listen on PST grocery and kids' clothing taxes. The Sask Party continues to collect $25 million annually in taxes on feeding your family and $20 million on your kid's clothing — even as families across Saskatchewan struggle to put food on the table. 22. He didn't listen on the potash royalty review. Saskatchewan sits on 45% of the world's economically recoverable potash reserves. The province's effective potash tax rate has averaged just 6.9% since 2009-10, compared to 9.5% in the early 2000s — costing Saskatchewan tens of millions per year in lost revenue. Calls for a review have been ignored by Scott Moe. 23. He didn't listen when Nutrien chose the U.S. over Saskatchewan. Nutrien, one of the world's largest potash producers, announced plans to build a new export terminal at Port of Longview, Washington — bypassing Canada entirely. Moe had failed to adequately advocate for Canadian infrastructure investment. 24. He didn't listen on his own lack of financial credibility. When economists pointed out that Moe's “Drawing the Line” white paper — claiming $111 billion in losses from federal policy — omitted carbon tax rebates and inflated costs, Moe said he disagreed and stood by the Ministry of Finance numbers. Experts called the analysis "incredibly weak." 25. He not only refused a review, he then didn't listen when Sask United and others pointed out that Saskatchewan's potash royalty framework lags far behind what the province's non-renewable resources could and should generate. 26. He didn't listen when his own former Speaker and longtime Sask Party MLA Randy Weekes tore up his caucus card, declaring the party had become "extreme" and described "all-out war" within the party over Moe's leadership. Moe's office dismissed him as "disgruntled." 27. He didn't listen to calls for accountability on misconduct. Saskatchewan's privacy watchdog ordered Moe's marshals to stop withholding misconduct records after finding the agency had inappropriately kept documents hidden from public view. He refused to comply with this basic democratic principle and continued to hide the documents. 28. He didn't listen to calls for FOI transparency. Moe's government has withheld key documents over and over and over again on any number of matters — despite his clear legal obligations under provincial Freedom of Information laws. 29. He didn't listen when, in 2017, the Sask Party government eliminated the Saskatchewan Transportation Company — the province's public bus service — overnight. Rural Saskatchewan residents, including people travelling to medical appointments, were stranded with no warning. 30. He didn't listen to the human cost of the STC shutdown. Research published two years after the STC closure, when Moe was Premier, documented testimonials of rural people choosing between renting a cab and buying food. Families lost connection with rural loved ones. 31. He didn't listen to Denare Beach. When a wildfire burned down more than half of the Saskatchewan community of Denare Beach in June 2025, Premier Moe did not visit for months. Wildfire survivor Dustin Trumbley said: "He's a leader. I voted for him. I wish I didn't." 32. He didn't listen while playing golf. Critics pointed out that Moe visited northern communities La Loche and Beauval — ahead of an area Sask Party golf fundraiser. 33. He didn't listen for 116 days…then made up for it with a weak apology issued on the other end of the province, in the Legislature in Regina, for not visiting Denare Beach sooner. 34. He didn't listen to Saskatchewan when half his water bomber fleet was grounded. During the worst of the 2025 wildfire season — with 10,000 people evacuated — nearly half of Saskatchewan's water bomber fleet was grounded. Calls to Moe for adequate firefighting resources had been made for years. 35. He didn't listen while overdoses surged in Saskatchewan. That results in real costs to residents in policing, quality of life, property values access to emergency room treatment and much more. 36. He didn't listen to 741 overdose calls in Saskatoon in two months — compared to 291 calls in all of the previous year. Moe's government had no emergency plan, costing all residents at every level and some, their lives. 37. He didn't listen to Regina and Saskatoon voters. In the 2024 election, Moe's Saskatchewan Party was completely shut out of Regina and reduced to one seat in Saskatoon. Moe promised to "do better" but in fact it’s gotten worse for cities since. 38. He didn't listen to his own caucus. Former MLAs Glen Hart, Mark Docherty, former Speaker Randy Weekes, and former top Brad Wall aide Ian Hanna all spoke out against him. Former Sask. Party MLAs Denis Allchurch, Greg Brkich, and Nadine Wilson joined Sask United. The dissent within the Sask Party remains real — and Moe dismisses it all. 39. He didn't listen to his own party’s platform. The Saskatchewan Party came to power in 2007 promising to stabilize GHG emissions by 2010. Today Scott Moe brags about how how high they are. 40. He didn’t listen to his own party’s founders or its constitution, when he removed Canada’s flags from the Saskatchewan Legislature, proving nothing more than his own pettiness. 41. He didn’t listen when the math on his irrigation megaproject stopped making sense. His own KPMG cost‑benefit review of the Lake Diefenbaker irrigation project showed the province would spend $1.15 billion to generate just $410 million in provincial tax revenue over 50 years. Moe calls that “economical.” Sask United calls that bullshit. 42. He didn’t listen when economists told him irrigation was a bad investment for taxpayers. Independent economists reviewing that same KPMG report said it describes “a risky venture” that delivers, at best, modest gains and does not make a convincing case for proceeding. Moe is plowing ahead anyway, because he doesn’t care. 43. He didn’t listen when the cost of irrigation became an absurd $2 million per quarter section — with the benefits flowing mainly to a handful of large landowners while taxpayers eat the bill. No serious leader would ever sign off on these numbers. 44. He didn’t listen when he was warned his immigration “growth agenda” was being exploited by bad actors. Instead, Scott Moe kept chasing headline population targets, bragging about “rapid growth”. 45. He didn’t listen when people on the ground told him that mass immigration without matching investment in housing, health care, schools and policing was not a plan — it was a pressure cooker. 46. He didn’t listen when rural and urban residents alike said they welcomed newcomers but could no longer get a family doctor, a school EA, a hospital bed or an affordable rental. 47. He didn’t listen when Saskatchewan people told him they were done with the culture war circus and wanted competence. Instead poured time and taxpayers’ dollars into pointless court fights, grandstanding stunts and other political brawls (which he lost, over and over). 48. He didn’t listen when small business owners and producers warned him they were being regulated and taxed to death by a government that talks conservative and spends like a drunken Ottawa Liberal. 49. He didn’t listen when people asked him to tell the truth, instead of sunny talk about “balanced budgets” and “strong finances” which doesn’t match what families, municipalities and farmers are actually living through. When Saskatchewan people said, “stop gaslighting us and fix it,” he brushed them off — and the underlying fiscal crises just keeps getting worse. 50. He didn’t listen when oil and gas producers and his own auditor asked him to stop using frustration with overregulation as a prop instead of solving the problem. Instead of doing the hard work of giving them regulatory clarity at home — Scott Moe just turned every complaint into another press conference, continuing to bog down the industry with hot air instead of solutions.

@ABDanielleSmith @Matt78432058 🤮

To the next generation: speak up and stand up for what you believe. More and more young Canadians are rejecting left wing politics that try to tell them what to think. They want the freedom to think for themselves, build a future, and actually get ahead. They are tired of rising costs, out of reach housing, and a system that is not working for them. In Alberta, we are fixing that with lower taxes, less government, more homes, and stronger job opportunities. I was proud to share that message with a great group of young people at the Campus Conservative Association of Calgary.

Sometimes I think about this tweet.

After 16 years, Viktor Orbán is out. Hungarians rejected “illiberal” rule built on control, division, patronage, overreach, and power hoarding. Now look at Saskatchewan. Stephen Harper has met with Orbán personally and pushed closer ties with governments like his. The SaskParty has paid Harper nearly $1,700,000.00 of your money over 7 years to advise them. Orbán called the Government of Saskatchewan’s Chief External Advisor, Stephen Harper a "great ally". Minister Jeremy Harrison keeps Harper’s photo on his wall. The SaskParty under Harper’s watchful eye has chosen to follow Orbán. After nearly two decades, when threatened, governments don’t reform — they tighten control, protect insiders, and double down. Hungary shows what comes next. Time for a change Saskatchewan. cbc.ca/news/world/hun…

With the bounty of natural resources we have in Saskatchewan and global commodity prices breaking our way, trained monkeys could maintain the status quo. All you had to do over the past 20 years was - nothing - and you failed at that. You now piss away $1,000,000,000.00+ of our money EVERY YEAR on interest charges on debt the SaskParty racked up. $1 Billion dollars each year could build desperately needed hospitals, schools and get the thousands of people living on the streets in our cities into homes and battle the addiction crises scarring our province. The SaskParty clearly has no clue how to properly manage royalties from potash, oil & gas, or uranium - which should have made Saskatchewan one of the wealthiest debt-free provinces in Canada over the past two decades.

Finland is a global leader in quantum computing. This is great news for Saskatchewan and Canada and will inevitably lead to a deepening of the technical ties with Finland. Many thanks to Prime Minister Carney and the Government of Canada for funding $2,000,000 for this important piece of technology and the Government of Saskatchewan providing a much smaller amount of only $400,000.

All Federal ridings in Saskatchewan just became two-way races between the Conservatives and Liberals.
