Danielle Smith’s bizarre, dangerous campaign to become Alberta premier
, the perceived frontrunner to become the next leader of Alberta’s United Conservative Party and premier of the province, Danielle Smith, was presented with a distractionary pinata, and a bat to go with it.
For Ms. Smith, still reeling from widespread criticism over comments she made suggesting cancer patients bore some responsibility for their disease, this was manna. But it was also a chance to demonstrate, yet again, how alarmingly ill-informed she is. It’s a statement, of course, that plays well to the extreme element of her party to whom she is trying to appeal. But it also appeals to those who aren’t members of the UCP but are very much in favour of the anti-vaccine mandate edicts and anti-science messages that Ms. Smith has been peddling since entering the leadership race.
