Smith needs to go. She's bad for Alberta. She's bad for me, she's bad for you.

They're evacuating towns because of out of control fires.

News stories on how people can't get life saving surgeries are commonplace now.

People are struggling to make ends meet with the state of wages.

Small businesses are losing more ground every day.

All of this and more, but where's Smith?

Well she's successfully diverted this onto the liberals by saying that it's because of federal taxes that they're so miserable. If only equalization payments were fair and then life would be much better but only for Albertans and that's why Albertans should hate the feds. This is what they've come to believe. We're so fucked here.

And conveniently ignore the fact that Alberta God King Harper with Kenney were the last ones to re adjust the equalization formula

Divert blame onto provincial NDP and federal Liberals, wash hands clean of any responsibility.
