Description
May 22, 2022
Alberta Premier Jason Kenney sent shockwaves through the political landscape last week, announcing his resignation. He will stay on as premier until a new leader is chosen, and one of those contenders is former Wildrose Party leader Danielle Smith. "The West Block" host Mercedes Stephenson asks Smith where she believes things went wrong for Kenny and how she would handle navigating Alberta through the COVID-19 pandemic.
