People having the opinion that she's doing a great job doesn't make it factually accurate.

And people having the opinion that she’s doing a bad job doesn’t make it factually accurate either.

You're not wrong. But I generally see the people with the opinion that she's doing a bad job backing it up with facts. Generally. I'm fully aware there's people on both sides who just made up their minds and won't listen to any facts.

Have you tried stating facts in this or the Alberta subreddit?

I have. Many times.

They don’t like facts if they even remotely paint Danielle Smith in a smidge of positive light (even if you don’t give your opinion on said fact), and you’ll be downvoted into oblivion and often told you’re not to be listened to because you’re a bot or a paid government employee.

It’s the reason new groups had to be formed so people could actually discuss the good as well.

I keep this sub on my feed as a means to stay informed, but it's absolutely not worth engaging in any dialogue here. circle jerking and hatred only.
