In the debut episode of The Paikin Podcast, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith sits down with Steve Paikin to discuss Alberta’s sovereignty act, if this could be Alberta’s "Brexit moment," Doug Ford and his Ontario brand of conservatism, getting “Jason Kenneyed,” meeting with Trump at Mar–a-Lago, how to play Trump’s ego, the future of conservatism and the rise of the right-wing podcast sphere – and, well, a few more things. They cover a LOT of ground. You should watch the whole thing!
