Earlier in the show, Ms. Smith also raised prospect of Alberta taking over national parks within the province – supposedly as a joke, but not necessarily.
When she and Mr. Loewen first met federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault, she claimed, she asked her sidekick, “‘Did you talk to Minister Guilbeault yet about how we’re gonna be takin’ back the national parks?’ I laughed. He didn’t.” (I’ll bet. It will be interesting to see if Mr. Guilbeault has any recollection of that conversation.)
“It was a joke at the time,” Ms. Smith rambled on, “but I can tell you that I think we have the capacity and the on-the-ground ability to respond in a way that should be more unified. If that requires us to be a bit more assertive in trying to change some of the rules around how they manage their parks, how they manage the prescribed burns, how they manage the cuts. I do know we’ll be very, very active in pressing that along.”

"It was a joke"? Why TF are you joking about taking control of national parks? What is event he context for that, other than your seething hatred for Guilbeault? In what world should a premier even be thinking that, let alone speaking it? Her mentality is just so ####ed. She's like the micromanager from hell who must control everything but knows nothing.
