Premier Danielle Smith joins Jason Lavigne live today for a focused, in-depth conversation on the Alberta Next Panel’s Final Recommendations and what they mean for Alberta’s future.
Drawing directly from the Panel’s province-wide public engagement and final report, this interview will walk through the seven key recommendations shaping Alberta’s next steps within Confederation, and the questions Albertans are now asking.
Topics we’ll cover:
- Building Alberta-Controlled Institutions – Reducing reliance on Ottawa through Alberta-led governance.
- Full Alberta Pension Plan (APP) Proposal – What Albertans must see before any vote.
- Alberta-Run Income Tax Study – Costs, benefits, and why Alberta needs to control taxes.
- Equalization & Fiscal Federalism Reform – Alberta’s role in pushing national change.
- Transition to Alberta Policing – Moving away from the RCMP toward an Alberta Police Service.
- Provincial Control Over Immigration – Referendum plans and expanded provincial authority.
- Protecting Provincial Jurisdiction – Constitutional options, opt-outs, and interprovincial cooperation.
- We’ll also discuss what happens next, what decisions have not been made, and how these recommendations may guide Alberta’s political and constitutional path forward.

We'll see you tomorrow.
Hi all,
Paula and I are taking a mid-week day off.
See you tomorrow with Frances Widdowson.
Stay warm, God bless.
Paula & Jay on the @TheLavigneShow are two of my favorite people. I am a supporter because I believe in their honesty, integrity & most of all their dedication to truth & the Alberta Independence Movement. I wrote a song about our quest for freedom, it is called My Alberta Home. You can find a demo of the song on my X page Michael Kosterman @MichaelKosterm2
We are headed into the studio later this spring to record a Radio Version of this song. Thank you Paula & Jay for all that you do. I will be coming to see you soon at one of your events! All my best & God Save Alberta!
