The Premiers of Ontario and Alberta offered contrasting views on the success of the first in-person meeting between Prime Minister Mark Carney and U.S. President Donald Trump, as tensions between the two provinces were exposed over unity concerns bubbling up in the West.

The simplest solution is to take Pierre Poilievre's plan. Death penalty for dealing over 40 mg fentanyl, 20 years for under 40 mg, forced treatment instead of free drugs (which end up killing high school kids and ensuring a new generation of addicts), and change the liberal "soft on crime" laws and problem solved. These drug dens have no place in our society, let alone near schools. I thought Carney was going to bring change. Same garbage as Trudeau.
