This "Eby goes off the rails" statement is wild

Smith is putting at risk billions of dollars worth of projects that he's been working on

He sounded frustrated to me
& I know how he feels

Smith is, was, and will always be, an embarrassment to Albertans

B.C. Premier David Eby is clearly beyond frustrated with Danielle Smith's pipeline dreams threatening the B.C. economy.

In a fiery statement, he called her out directly stating...

"This is not the Danielle Smith show!"

In his 20 years as MP, PP has accomplished nothing for Canadian families, but last year spent over $8m, twice what PMJT spent, and he continued to live on our dime when he was a civilian. The guy is bent, in many ways.
