Alberta government has said it wants to grow the Heritage Savings Trust Fund to between $250 billion and $400 billion by the year 2050, in order to wean the province off the resource revenue roller-coaster.

Premier Danielle Smith says her position on tariffs has been “mischaracterized” as she has been vocal about all of Canada being tariff-free, and it doesn’t benefit Alberta to solely have a carve-out.

The largest exporting province rejecting a ‘Team Canada’ approach against Donald Trump doesn’t position the country well to negotiate with a second Trump administration.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has complicated ongoing negotiations with the U.S. after newly inaugurated President Donald Trump set a date to impose tariffs against Canada. Smith told reporters at a Tuesday morning news conference the focus should be on diplomacy and ending talks about retaliatory tariffs.

Smith’s ideas for Team Canada are different than other premiers, who are calling for more unity in negotiations

Prior to Trump's inauguration, Smith travelled to the president's Florida home to advocate for Alberta's interests in response to the tariff threats.

Trudeau and 12 of Canada’s 13 premiers agreed to form a united front and pledge that “everything” is on the table in a potential tariff war with Donald Trump.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is slamming Alberta’s refusal to sign a joint statement on the plan to respond to Donald Trump’s tariff threats, saying Premier Danielle Smith is not putting Canadians first.

After weeks of concern, confusion, calls for unity and subsequent dissent, Canada is receiving clarity on U.S. president-elect Donald Trump's threats to enact widespread tariffs on Canadian imports on his first day in office.

Trudeau blasted Smith, reminding her that the federal government bought the Trans Mountain pipeline, which now has a C$34.5 billion price tag, giving Alberta its only route to export oil from Canada’s Pacific coast.

Smith was on CBC this week and she was asked if by sticking up for Alberta she was undermining the ability of Canada to deal with the Trump tariff threat. Smith says blocking Alberta oil headed for the U.S. or the Canadian government slamming a tax on that oil is something she would fight.
