Part 7/9:
As Alberta continues to navigate its economic recovery post-COVID-19, Smith is optimistic about the province's future. The influx of newcomers seeking employment and opportunity is a promising sign. She sees Alberta as a land where families can thrive, with job opportunities and a commitment to lowering taxes—factors that play into the long-awaited dream of upward mobility.
Smith's optimism, however, is tempered by the reality of a federal government that has shown little regard for the energy sector's needs. She emphasized the need for collaborative efforts between provincial and federal governments to unlock Alberta’s economic potential while also addressing environmental concerns effectively.
