"Former Maverick leadership candidate Tariq Elnaga said Alberta Premier Danielle Smith should “become a separatist yourself, or at the very least, push for sovereignty.”
After 650 days in office, Elnaga said all Alberta has got has been half-measures on a provincial pension and police force and other Alberta First initiatives.
“Why are we always on the back foot and not making the first moves?” tweeted Elnaga on Monday.
