1. Space lasers, ammirite? 

2. She’s fighting to push out tears. It’s a challenge for her to show any emotion over the people she’s indirectly killing.

3. She’s an idiot.

   The province she runs has cut most of our fire fighting resources. This article last year outlines it.

   > We are a skeleton crew out here’: UCP cuts led to disastrous Alberta wildfire situation
   Alberta wildfire fighters place much of the blame for the current situation on the shoulders of the UCP government, which has gutted firefighter programs and failed to retain staff

   And there’s a bunch of misinformation as Jasper national park is under Federal jurisdiction (Trudeau) but Jasper the municipality (the city) is under provincial jurisdiction (Daniel smith).

   > The community of Jasper is unique because it is a town located within a province (Alberta) and within a National Park (Jasper National Park). The Municipality of Jasper is the local government that is responsible for many things within the townsite. Jasper National Park is managed by Parks Canada (the Canadian/Federal Government). The Municipality of Jasper was formed by the Province of Alberta on July 20, 2001.

   > Within the Municipality of Jasper, there is a Mayor and 6-member Council, elected every four years by the residents of Jasper. The current Council and Mayor were elected to office in October 2021 for a four-year term. The elected Mayor and Council represent local residents when they make decisions about municipal matters.

4. so reinstate and further bolster fire fighting resources?

5. The weeping is as fake as her soul. Plastic, runs on oil and has a low value on the open market if the tickets are right.
