This week on The Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel discusses how Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is calling out the state broadcaster for “defamatory” reporting after the CBC alleged that staff in Smith’s office emailed Crown prosecutors challenging their assessment on Coutts border blockades cases. However, the CBC isn’t backing down and refusing to retract its story.

Plus, Smith continues her opposition to the Trudeau government’s “Just Transition” proposal. This week, smith proposed a sustainable jobs alternative to the feds’ controversial policy.

And Rachel talks about our newest documentary – The Freedom Occupation!
