WEF accuses new Alberta premier of conspiracy theories The new Alberta premier has come under attack for refusing to associate with the World Economic Forum (WEF). Danielle Smith, an opponent of vaccine and mask mandates, said she is cancelling a "health consulting agreement" involving the WEF and revolving around Alberta's covid response, because she won't work with a group that talks about controlling governments. During a news conference Monday after her new cabinet was sworn in, Smith said (https://bit.ly/3T8A7g1): "I find it distasteful when billionaires brag about how much control they have over political leadersÂ…. That is offensive Â… the people who should be directing government are the people who vote for them." In response, the Canadian mainstream media is pursuing a thorough hatchet campaign (https://bit.ly/3U8mI8Z) against Smith, consistently referring to all opposition to the WEF as being based in "conspiracy theory." As they say, if you want to know who is really in power, all you have to do is find out who you are not allowed to criticize.
