During the March 8 interview with Breitbart, Smith spoke of the shifting political winds in Canada since Trump launched his trade war.

Smith told Breitbart the threat of "unjust and unfair tariffs" had boosted Liberal support, and said she told U.S. officials that she hoped "we could put things on pause" so Canada could get through an election.

The premier went on to say Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is more aligned with the Trump administration's agenda.

"There's probably still always going to be areas that are skirmishes or disputes about particular industries when it comes to the border, but I would say, on balance, the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think … the new direction in America," she said.

Applegrove: good she came clean. Trump could have blackmailed her.

1. What's her beef? She and conservatives can

oppose tariffs as well.

Does she want Canada to become our 51st state?

2. Publicly they have been claiming to be against tariffs

and I don't believe either one of them want to lose power that would come with annexation. That being said, Poilievre took weeks before he started to say 'HELL NO!' stance all other Canadian politicians were saying about annexation at the time. Weeks. What was that about?

3. We need her gone in Alberta

I think she is hiding right now or PP has asked her to STFU, she has cancelled all public activities today.

4. I know. She's usually happy screwing people. At least PP looks

unhappy when he tries to screw people.

5. PP looks constipated all the time.
