EDMONTON — Alberta Opposition NDP Leader Rachel Notley says Premier Danielle Smith must explain whether she shares the"extremist views" of Calgary street preacher Artur Pawlowski and those of"her key support group" Take Back Alberta.
Smith has answered some questions from reporters. But she has declined to respond to others, citing the fact she may sue the CBC over its coverage and must respect the ongoing investigation by ethics commissioner Marguerite Trussler, who is looking into whether Smith violated the Conflicts of Interest Act with the Pawlowski call.
However, on her call-in radio show Saturday, Smith said,"Mr. Pawlowski holds some very extreme views that I disagree with completely.” Kenney announced he was stepping down almost a year ago, after receiving 51 per cent support in a party leadership review. Take Back Alberta thenhelped rally the votes to put Smith in the top job last October following a party leadership race.
Political scientist Duane Bratt said Parker is underselling Take Back Alberta’s growing influence within the governing party and premier.
