I don't much care about provincial politics but cripes what a lacklustre handshake from Smith. Shameful performance.

Like a child having a temper tantrum. She needs to grow up.

Really? I was thinking more like it looks as though she's in awe of him.

Which would be hilarious on a whole other level.

Just wait for the press release saying Trudeau refused to be professional and work WITH her instead of against Alberta. And then wait 20 more seconds for the Yoho tweet post of said press release.

Trudeau didn't show her his Quad Vaxx card before the hand shake.

I wouldn't shake his hand either!

It's almost as if she doesn't want a public shot of her shaking hands with Justin.

Wouldn't be good optics for her banner-waving ##### TRUDEAU acolytes.

I'm no fan of Trudeau but I love how he went down low to grab her hand and force her to shake his hand while smiling. She had to be dying inside.

It certainly looks that way.

Making Smith look like a Clown is probably one of the best things Trudeau has done during his tenure.

As much as I espouse the concept of participation between Provinces and the Feds, I'd have been really tempted to tell her that you only get to discuss issues with the Prime Minister once you've been elected.

Go away Smitty. Get yourself Elected, and then come back when you've gotten yourself a mandate from the electorate.

I think it's fine, I'm sure she had some extra horse paste before she left to ensure her good health in her travelling

He assaulted her, he's shedding vax RNA proteins, the way he grabbed her hand to ensure transfer was horrifying. She might go on a steep decline now, pray for our Premier.

If you can think of a simpler way to exchange long protein strands, I'd like to hear it.

I'm dying right now, that exchange is hilarious. Trudeau had to be thinking "I wouldn't let that orange ####er get away with this #### why would you think you would?" while grinning ear to ear. Just swoops in and yoinks that hand right up into frame lollllllllllllllllll

This is true, it is a long-time term from a broader perspective. I still think it's a local failure to not rebrand it here.

Hahahah as if Smith wasn’t more a joke already.

What a lame excuse for a “premier”. Unelected one at that.

The NDP should put it in their party platform that if elected, they will create a law requiring a new election be held if the leader of the currently governing party steps down. Then start hammering Smith with "she wasn't elected" ads
