I live in #alberta, when that traitorous wretch #DanielleSmith allowed Yankee booze back on the shelves, the numbers went up something like 2.2%. Let them the "win," put their booze back on the shelf, we don't HAVE to buy it, it costs more and isn't as good. The well has been poisoned. They did it

Smith insists Alberta recovery centres moving ahead amid tangle of legal action
The Globe’s Carrie Tait and Tom Cardoso bring us the latest from the CorruptCare scandals to explore Alberta UCP Premier Danielle Smith’s claim that the construction of recovery centres are on schedule and within budget. While three facilities were originally set to complete with a budget of $104 million, it seems that the subcontractors involved continue to report that their bills remain unpaid. Worse, there are reports that suggest that there is no scenario where any of the facilities can complete on time or within the original budget.
Albertans following this space will recall this story breaking in March 2026, where the contractors allege that they had no idea why their requests for payment were being ignored. But these same contractors understood what went wrong with the public as they read the news of the litigation containing bombshell allegations between AEHE, Melewka Homes, the Semashkewiches, Sam Mraiche, Mohamed Eldassouki, Jitendra Prasad, and Bryan Ward.
Reference links below.
Instead, Albertans learn that the litigation continues:
Meanwhile, Melewka and its subcontractors have filed liens exceeding $10-million against the Métis Nation project in hopes of recouping money for work on that recovery centre. Subcontractors also allege they are owed for work performed on Enoch and Tsuut’ina, but those facilities are shielded from liens because they are on reserves. In those cases, some subcontractors are suing Melewka for the money.
Mr. Dehari’s company, Inso-Energie Inc., was subcontracted to work on the recovery facilities for the Métis Nation and Enoch. He said his business completed roughly 60 per cent of its work at the Métis Nation’s recovery centre, and had yet to be paid for any of it. He estimates the bill amounts to roughly $180,000 after interest.
He also said he had not been paid for roughly 20 per cent of his company’s work on Enoch’s recovery centre.
Also, CorruptCare expands as Tsuut’ina allegedly raised additional accusations against the Intrepid Champion of Late Stage Capitalism, Sam Mraiche:
Tsuut’ina did not address questions about its timeline and budget, citing litigation. The First Nation is suing its former lawyer over alleged irregularities in the procurement process for its recovery centre. Tsuut’ina, in a lawsuit first reported by The Globe in July, alleged lawyer Terry Braun worked with Mr. Mraiche to sole-source the construction contract for its facility.
Tsuut’ina alleges its recovery centre project has been marred by “red flags,” including circumvented procurement processes, overpayments and duplicated invoices, according to its statement of claim.
Mr. Braun did not respond to a request seeking comment. Mr. Mraiche is not party to that lawsuit and his lawyer did not respond to a request for comment. None of the allegations have been tested in court.
In the face of these conflicting versions of how these three recovery facilities are coming along, we have to take in the obvious: Alberta has literally risked $104 Million for three facilities, and potentially has nothing to show for it besides empty promises, partially completed buildings, and local businesses holding the bag. There are clear Conflicts of Interest that arise for some members of the UCP, and Premier Danielle Smith. And, while the articles make clear that these are allegations yet to be explored fully in court, Alberta remains trapped with UCP politicians who refuse to follow convention to offer their resignations.
Any UCP politician involved with the CorruptCare scandal must know that they will one day be asked for sworn statements. People will be studying this scandal with care. Where will you possibly go? Texas?
