She is a content creator based in Edmonton who focuses on Alberta politics. She does a podcast with Steve Boots and Brittlestar (
Politics is Broken) but now Steve Boots is 'retired' and I believe she also joined Nate Pike (The Breakdown AB) when he did a live show or two. She isn't really a "somebody" but covering Alberta politics is a pretty small market.
I like that her content is not just opinions but fact driven. She provides source material and links to things that she references in her videos so that if you want to question it you can go look it up yourself.
Considering how hard it is to be a content creator or independent information sharer (not a journalist) in Canada - because Canada does not have a creator fund like in the US that pays people for views and subs - I think it is valuable to promote anyone who is pushing back against misinformation and the blind spots of corporate media.
I wouldn't want to speculate as to why either of you wouldn't like her but I would say that if you focus on what she is saying, she is adding value that you might not be getting elsewhere.
