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.”
Poll only people in oil? Are you serious? What would be the purpose of that? Maybe only rural Alberta should be able to vote in the provincial election and damn the rest. I think you have oil on your brain, and it’s affected your thinking abilities.
