Dec 17: Alberta premier Danielle Smith. Energy Battle with Trudeau Gov and Radicalization of Youth.

The province of Alberta is in conflict with the federal Liberal government of Justin Trudeau, with Premier Danielle Smith and her UCP government passing the Alberta Sovereignty within a United Canada Act on December 8, 2022. - Smith has since challenged Ottawa on its overreach into provincial consitutionally enshrined jurisdiction over energy development, with the Supreme Court of Canada, by strong majority supporting Alberta's position energy development is provincial government domain. Smith has, like Saskatchewan premier Scott Moe, declared Ottawa is endangering national unity with its demands for elimination of fossil fuels to produce so-called 'clean' energy by 2030. Like Scott Moe, Danielle Smith was in Dubai for COP 28 and is not at all pleased with the positions adopted in Dubai by federal environment minister Stephen Guilbeault. Will the conflict between Alberta continue in 2024 and what might it look like and how is, in the premier's view, the Trudeau government stepping on provincial jurisdiction?
Note: will also ask the premier for her reaction to 15 year old being arrested near Ottawa Friday and facing like terrorism charges in court tomorrow. A 16 year old was arrested by the RCMP in Calgary on similar grounds by RCMP on Wednesday. Youth radicalization concerns?
Guest: Danielle Smith. Premier. Alberta
