Last week, Smith posted on social media that “For every $1 of taxes a guest worker generates, taxpayers are covering $10 in services.” While this figure might ring true for many, it is far from accurate. I fact-checked Smith’s claims in my latest for @thetyee.ca

Hey Alberta - there's a federal petition out right now to bar construction of energy-hungry AI data centres. It aims to mandate and prioritize national environmental protections, public hearings, and First Nations consent. Anyone from Canada can sign: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
image is a screenshot from the official Canadian House of Commons website (ourcommons.ca) featuring an excerpt from petition e-7427 put forward by Member of Parliament Heather McPherson. The petition is open starting May 20, 2026, and closes September 17, 2026. The excerpt reads: "We, the undersigned, People of Canada, call upon the House of Commons in Parliament assembled to immediately impose a federal moratorium on the approval, construction, expansion, or operation of proposed hyperscale AI data centres in Alberta, including the proposed Wonder Valley AI Data Centre Industrial Park and the proposed Synapse Data Centers Olds Project. 1. Prohibit federal permits, funding, tax incentives, loan guarantees, infrastructure support, or federal land and water access for AI data centres powered primarily by fossil fuels or requiring large-scale freshwater withdrawals; 2. Establish binding national environmental protections that permanently prohibit hyperscale AI data centres that would significantly increase greenhouse gas emissions, strain provincial electrical grids, consume unsustainable amounts of freshwater, or negatively impact surrounding communities, farmland, ecosystems, or Indigenous territories; and 3. Require mandatory federal environmental assessments, transparent public hearings, and free, prior, and informed consent from affected Indigenous nations and municipalities before any future AI data centre proposal may be considered in Alberta and in Canada." #abpoli #canpoli #cdnpoli

Danielle Smith's definition of "democracy" seems to depend entirely on whether she gets her way. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
A four-panel yellow-and-black political meme featuring Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in a Drake-style approval/disapproval format.

Top left: Danielle Smith with puckered lips and an irritated expression.
Top right text: “Court requires consultation with First Nations?” followed by “Anti-democratic”.

Bottom left: Danielle Smith smiling broadly and waving.
Bottom right text: “Overriding Charter rights with the Notwithstanding Clause?” followed by “Now that’s democracy!”

The meme uses contrasting expressions and captions to criticize what it presents as a contradiction between opposing court-mandated consultation with First Nations while supporting use of the Notwithstanding Clause to override Charter rights.

I hate to say it, but I think Trump is going to end up on the losing side of the China talks. But - as usual - he will declare victory, lie about some of the agreed to terms - and China will issue a statement rebutting his claims. In other words, today's just another day in trump world.
