Alberta Premier Danielle Smith continues to support Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre ahead of his leadership review, despite concerns over his recent motion regarding an oil pipeline MOU with Prime Minister Mark Carney. She expressed disappointment that Poilievre did not present the entire MOU, which addresses various energy issues, including carbon taxes. Smith believes Poilievre maintains strong support within the party and praised his advocacy for Alberta’s energy industry. As the Calgary convention approaches, polls indicate Poilievre faces challenges in solidifying his position among party members.
