Alberta premier gets boos from own party for optimism with Canada

It wasn't a victory lap for Alberta Premier Danielle Smith over her MOU with Ottawa that supports an oil pipeline on Friday, as she told the UCP base at their annual meeting that "I hope people today feel a lot more confident that Canada works than they did a couple of days ago" — and was met with a chorus of boos. Plus, Vancouver Liberal MP Taleeb Noormohamed and Minister responsible for Prairies Economic Development Eleanor Olszewski defend against objections to the MOU from First Nations and the B.C. premier, and skepticism coming from some within Alberta that Ottawa is serious about allowing a pipeline to happen.
