What Happened To Daniel Smith ? Swallowed By The Swamp?

You can’t make this up!!
When Smith interviewed me just a short two years ago before she ran for the Party leadership , she was full of p—and vinegar —democracy —-the people , freedom —no coercion , nothing forced—let the person decide. Especially as it relates to the pandemic. She was curt with me about the Charter and its reach and effectiveness.
Then she is no sooner in power and she appoints Preston Manning to a Covid Inquiry helping to cause a ethical , conflict of interest issue within the already established National Citizens Inquiry in which Manning was intimately involved dealing with the National problems of mandates and lockdowns etc all across the nation , including Alberta. I informed Danielle of this. I recognize that Manning should have resigned from the NCI —but Danielle could have made it a condition of his appointment on her Provincial one, thereby avoiding the conflict of interest issue. She did not!!
Then did the Legislature get involved ? You know Democracy? That which Smith was all about and of which she relentlessly attacked her opponents and the federal Government? No, the Government proceeds to appoint members to the Inquiry and a terms of reference without any reference to the elected Legislature.
And were there Public Hearings?

A group of top national security experts is sounding the alarm: Canada’s relationship with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has crossed from economic engagement into a full-blown democratic threat.

At a Dec. 6 forum in Toronto, former RCMP proceeds-of-crime director Garry Clement called the CCP “the biggest transnational organized crime group ever seen,” warning that Beijing is actively infiltrating Canada’s political, business, and cultural institutions. Through the United Front Work Department, the CCP co-opts elites, business leaders, community organizations, and media outlets—while intimidating and surveilling dissidents “on a daily basis.”

Clement also linked Beijing to the fentanyl crisis, saying the CCP could shut down precursor shipments to Canada “if they really wanted to,” but instead allows the flow as a form of “disruptive warfare,” echoing the tactics of the Opium Wars....
