Cara Currie-Hall, of Montana First Nation, in Maskwacis, AB, a renowned political strategist in Indian country who advises treaty chiefs in Alberta. Currie-Hall says premier Danielle Smith is creating a constitutional crisis that will affect all of Canada because of her support of the Alberta separatist movement:

“Danielle Smith, the infamous premier of Alberta, who is accommodating separatists because they’re cranky and mad- at everything. And they’re trying to take our land and make another country…the chiefs have told her it’s a fantasy…she’s trying to make a deal, on our resources, Alberta resources, treaty resources that belong to us, with the United States of America.”

Currie-Hall is the co-founder of Rock the Indigenous Vote. She helped Barack Obama get elected as President by creating a block vote throughout Indian Country in the United States.

She’s sat on the International Oversight Committee on Treaty Enforcement and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples committee among others.
