‘It’s a garbage poll’: Danielle Smith criticizes survey suggesting Canadians support retaliatory tariffs on oil and gas
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is firing back against a poll that suggests the majority of Canadians support putting retaliatory tariffs on imported energy products.
The survey, conducted by Nanos Research for CTV News and The Globe and Mail, found more than two-thirds of people in the Prairies support putting tariffs on oil, natural gas and electricity.
“Well, I think it’s a garbage poll,” Smith said at an unrelated press conference on Tuesday.
“What if we were to ask Albertans or Canadians this: ‘Would you support export tariffs if it meant the U.S. would retaliate by shutting off Line 5 and leaving Ontario and Quebec without gasoline or aviation fuel at all?’ I think you’d get a different answer.”
