Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is facing fresh criticism over her government's approach to affordability. Critics say that after public money was handed to companies to bring down living costs with little visible result, Smith is now intervening more directly in markets, with one commentator accusing her of turning to 'socialism' only to make her public claims look real. The comments reflect ongoing anger about energy bills and the cost of living in the province.
Why now: Frustration over Alberta's cost-of-living crisis and Smith's market interventions is driving political criticism.
