Breaking down this week in Alberta politics: Sovereignty Act use and strengthening the border
Premier Danielle Smith pledged to beef up border patrols in response to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's threats to levy 25 per cent tariffs on all Canadian imports if no action is taken to secure the Canada-U.S. border. Smith's government also fought with the federal Liberals, threatening to use the Sovereignty Act to assert ownership over the province's oil and gas emissions data. Political strategist Zain Velji and pollster Janet Brown weigh in on the busy week in Alberta politics.
