I recently sat down with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith to talk about the Trudeau Liberals' war against Canadian oil and gas, and Alberta’s response.

• why does Justin Trudeau refuse to sell Canadian energy to Japan and Germany?
• why don’t anti-oil activists ever criticize OPEC or Russia?
• will foreign oil companies ever come back to Canada or are they waiting for Trudeau to leave?
• will oil pipelines ever be built?

And I couldn’t help but ask:

• does she think Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault actually uses a plastic straw if he thinks no-one is looking?

I recorded this interview last week, and subscribers to RebelNews+ got a sneak preview of the whole thing on Friday.

RebelNews+ is where we feature our premium, TV-style shows and documentaries: every weeknight I do a monologue, interview fascinating newsmakers, and read my fan mail (and my hate mail!)

My colleague Sheila Gunn Reid has a weekly show, too.

We thought this interview with Premier Smith was important enough that we wanted the whole world to see it, not just our special subscribers. So you can watch the whole thing here.

But most of the time, we save the good stuff for our subscribers — it’s one of the ways we earn a living at Rebel News, since we refuse to take any government money! Rebel News is one of the rare independent media in the country who don’t accept money from any government — 99% of Canadian journalists accept payments from Trudeau, and it shows.
