As the first day of the election campaign kicks off, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is facing criticism over comments made in an interview with a right-wing American news outlet.

It happened earlier this month but is only now getting attention.

Smith told syndicated news and commentary website Breitbart that she has asked U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration to put tariffs on pause until after Canada’s federal election because the trade war is benefiting the Liberals in the polls.

Drew Stremick reports on the premier’s comments and explains what’s causing concern.
