Asked at a June press conference in Calgary about Moretta's participation in meetings, the premier said her husband's advice has been useful.

"My husband's an adviser to me, and that's allowed because he's married to me, so I can ask for his advice on anything I choose," Smith said. "And he happens to have 25 years in media, much of it covering issues of rail. And so I asked for his advice as we had a multitude of different projects coming forward to seek guidance on the path forward."

Spouse of Rachel Notley, Lou Arab, posted this on threads
I am married to former Alberta Premier Rachel Notley.
When she was in office, despite my having two decades of professional experience in labour relations, I was not allowed within 10 light years of setting labour policy.
I was not actually allowed to lobby any minister on ANY subject whatsoever.
And that wasn’t just good ethics, that was the law. Enforced by the ethics commissionor.
Danielle Smith is full of it.

No! You absolutely cannot!
I'm sure there are a whole lot of things that are/should be confidential that someone should not be privy to just because they are your spouse.

Neither my wife nor I are the Premiere, and there are a ton of work things we aren't allowed to talk to each other about.
