If you spend most of your energy giving and demanding apologies, you're probably not much of a leader. People who are victims in their own mind and morons in the minds of others should probably just go get a podcast or something.

I want one from anyone who votes for Smith. She is an absolute train wreck.

Sounds like April 28th is hard deadline for CBC to retract.

You voted for the UCP last election didn't you? Are you going to apologize to yourself?

I'll say it again:
They won't, because Smith doesn't have a case.

April 28. Conveniently timed to maximize the amount of supporters who will have forgotten all about this by time Smith has to tuck her tail and slink away out of embarrassment.

Perhaps Smith should be suing Pawlowski, not CBC? She is literally saying, word for word, on tape, what CBC reported, from a video that Pawlowski himself posted (not CBC)?

Or wait, Smith's collusion with someone under prosecution is somehow still CBC's fault, because we gotta 'own the Libs', right Yoho?

This is effectively a SLAPP lawsuit designed to shut people up and play to the base. As far as I can tell, CBC is literally playing back Danielle Smith's own words and not paraphrasing for her. There is nothing libelous, slanderous, or defamatory here.

But now she can say "it's in the hands of the courts", deflect any further questions, and tell her Smithkovites she's standing up to the CBC. Problem is, they're already voting for her so it doesn't help her in the slightest.

What I'd like to see is the amount of money Alberta taxpayers have had to spend on Jason and Danielle's frivolous court battles, and related scandals-de-jour.

I love how somehow she is the victim. Absolutely braindead

"They must retract or else!"

Retract what? Your own words?

Someone on the board shared that scene from Liar Liar the other day, but boy does it fit here.
Paraphrasing mine:

"Retraction!!"
"Retraction of your own recorded words, why?"
"Because what i said is damning to my own electability... "

"Defamatory narrative".

This is the ultimate in desperately grasping for straws. Albertans should be up in arms over this frivolous matter and how the Premier is embarrassing the province.

Just an absolute trainwreck and disaster.

Also, I feel gross quoting True North dunderheads, but the letter is public from this account.

I'm half expecting her to try and introduce legislation banning the CBC from Alberta or something insane
