Alberta Premier Danielle Smith renewed her calls for a federal election and upping border security.

Smith has instructed her government to take steps to increase police and resources to take down fentanyl labs and dealers within the province.

The compassionate intervention legislation, which could allow courts, police or families to involuntarily put their loved ones into mandatory addiction treatment, is still set to come this year in addition to the construction of “secured” mandatory treatment facilities.
