As Alberta Premier Danielle Smith takes over the federal job of policing the Alberta border with the US, and finds instant stardom on Fox News, she appears to be having the time of her life. Meanwhile, Alberta is booming and thousands of people are moving in from other parts of Canada every month. There are problems, but they look like the problems of growth.

However, problems are problems. What does it look like from the Western Standard's legislative gallery in Edmonton? In tonight's episode of Hannaford, Nigel Hannaford asks newly appointed Western Standard legislative correspondent James Snell, himself a former political operative, how things look to him.

Specifically, does Smith have a spending problem? Some people say she does. Will the Alberta Pension Plan ever happen? Do Albertans even want it? And how does it look like things are going?

Snell, who once worked the Canadian Energy Centre, otherwise known as the 'War Room,' and staffed Energy Minister Brian Jean says Smith is doing ok, but has some definite ideas about spending and pensions. Check out what he has to say, above.

Hannaford airs at seven o clock, MT.
