Indigenous peoples have no confidence in Danielle Smith and the UCP.

The Assembly of Treaty Chiefs delivered a unanimous vote of no confidence in Danielle Smith and the UCP. Unanimously.

This is NOT a stunt.

It's a warning.

Alberta NDP Leader introduces Motion of Non-Confidence following Historic First Nations' Unanimous Vote Engaging Albertans to build an economy for the future.

Danielle Smith and the UCP government have fundamentally damaged our foundational relationship with Indigenous peoples.

The historic and unprecedented vote of non-confidence in this government at the Assembly of First Nations is proof of this.

'Rock solid' majority opposed to Alberta independence: Abacus Data poll | CBC News About a quarter of Albertans support the province leaving Canada, but the majority β€” nearly two-thirds β€” are against it, according to a new poll from Abacus Data.

"More than half believe Premier Danielle Smith would vote in favour of separation ...despite Smith’s repeated position that she prefers a strong and sovereign Alberta, within a united Canada."

Albertans are tired of this separatist government.

Immigration levels in Alberta are decreasing as Smith pushes referendum questions Alberta's immigration levels have been decreasing since the 2023 peak and experts are questioning why a referendum is being called.

"Danielle Smith is claiming immigration is putting a large strain on provincially funded social services, despite the numbers dropping."

Facts matter.
Just not to Smith or the UCP.

The UCP promised triage doctors weeks ago, but Albertans are still waiting.

Now the Premier is pointing fingers instead of taking responsibility.

Yet again, this government is playing the blame game while ERs remain overcrowded and frontline staff are stretched to the limit.

Opinion: Alberta needs to lead β€” not leave β€” Canada Alberta doesn't need to leave Canada. Alberta needs to lead Canada; to create jobs, attract investment, and build long-term prosperity.

β€œIt’s tempting to think we’d be better off on our own. But every day this separatist conversation continues, Alberta loses ground where it matters most: investment, jobs, and economic growth.”

How can she point the finger at overcrowding and unsustainable population growth while she's still paying people to move here?

The UCP managed to create a crisis in healthcare & education due to poor planning & decision-making.

Now they’ve added a $9.4 billion deficit to the budget, doubling Alberta’s provincial debt & pushing it over $100 billion.

The Alberta Advantage meant anyone β€” including newcomers β€” could build a life and share in opportunity.

Now the UCP blames immigrants for UCP failures in health care & education.

Premier Smith asked for growth. So why scapegoat those least responsible?

Take responsibility.

The UCP squandered Alberta’s near-record resource wealth and still produced a $9.4 -billion deficitβ€”a failure of basic financial management.

Somehow, under some of strongest economic conditions in a generation, life is going to cost you more.

UCP Spends So Much and Delivers So Little in Budget 2026 After sevenΒ years under the UCP, life isΒ demonstrablyΒ harder for Albertans. This budget makes life even harder.

The UCP government has spent so much money to deliver so little for Albertans.

After seven years under the UCP, life is demonstrably harder for Albertans, and this budget does not help in any way.

The UCP blames their bad budget on immigrants when the real reason is their failure to show any fiscal responsibility..

Alberta faces massive deficits while:

- Premier Smith wasted money to store & destroy 700K bottles of Turkish Tylenol
- RCMP investigate bloated gov contracts
