From a Globe and Mail article

Smith said she doesn't know how much newcomers cost Alberta’s health care and education systems, despite scheduling a referendum to ask whether social services to those residents shd be limited b/c of cost.
Smith stumbled when pressed for details on the financial burden newcomers place on the province’s health and education systems.
“It’s tough,” she said. “We’d have to do the figuring out.”
She added: “We don’t track residents and how much they use. All I can give you is averages about what things cost.”

So she's not sure, but has no problem throwing out the red meat immigrant fear mongering to the right/far right in the province.

She's not a leader for all people of the province, she's a disaster.
