Danielle Smith limits questions from journalists ahead of Alberta election
CA, 18 Apr 2023
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has imposed a one-question limit per conference on journalists ahead of the province's May election, in what she says is an effort to ensure more reporters are able to ask questions.
The policy comes as the UCP leader faces judicial interference allegations relating to a leaked phone call with a controversial Calgary pastor facing criminal charges.
As Heather Yourex-West explains, Smith's strategy is widely seen as an attempt to avoid scrutiny before voters head to the polls.
