Alberta Premier Daniel Smith is frequently attacked in Canadian media for his conservatism and hostility to the Trudeau government. But last week, she was targeted for answering a voter question about chemtrails.
In a rush to condemn Smith for allegedly “instilling fear” and associating with “conspiracy theorists,” critics and other political opportunists have accused Canadians of having planes dump toxic chemicals over their heads. You are cheating on at least one of the legitimate reasons to suspect that you are. The Department of Defense has a history of doing just that.

At a recent United Conservative Party town hall meeting in Edmonton, an audience member asked Smith about chemtrails occurring over Alberta. smith shown She said she has conducted several interviews but has yet to find evidence of any public or private business that meets the criteria.

Chemtrails refers to the theory that governments or other entities use aircraft to dump toxic chemicals or biological agents into the atmosphere, where they appear as traces of condensation that remain.

“The best thing I can do is talk to the woman in charge of airspace control. She says no one is allowed to go up and spray anything into the air.” said Smith. “My opponent said that if anyone is doing it, it's the U.S. Department of Defense.”
Mr. Smith is clearly open to a formal investigation, but hinted that it would ultimately be a federal government undertaking.
“There are some limitations to what you can do at work,” Smith said. “If that's the case, and the Pentagon is spraying us, I don't know if I have much power.”
Prime Minister's Office
said In a statement to Global News, it said:
The Premier has heard concerns from many Albertans about this issue. In response, the provincial government investigated the issue and found no evidence of chemtrails occurring in Alberta. The Prime Minister was only sharing what he had heard from some people over the summer on this issue. She did not say she believed the U.S. government was using chemtrails in Alberta.
“NORAD and U.S. Northern Command do not conduct any flight operations involving the dispersal of chemical agents in Canada,” a spokesperson for NORAD and U.S. Northern Command told Canadian reporters in a statement.
Although she denied having seen any evidence of chemtrails, Ms. Smith was also attacked for daring to bring up the topic.
“The prime minister is giving space to conspiracy theories, and I would argue that he's legitimizing conspiracy theories,” Timothy Caulfield, a professor at the left-leaning University of Alberta School of Public Health, told Global News.
“She could have said, 'Look, I hear your concerns, but the reality is that's not true,'” Caulfield added.
Trudeau Prime Minister Randy Boissonneau similarly attacked the prime minister.

Although Mr. Caulfield, Mr. Boissonneau and Mr. Yip seem to strongly deny the possibility of aircraft dumping chemicals overhead, there is precedent in their states.
More than a decade ago, Lisa Martino Taylor, a sociology professor at St. Louis Community College, obtained U.S. Army documents through a Freedom of Information Act request that revealed how the Army built high-rise low-income housing in the mid-1950s.

This test was not a special case.
“As a general rule, it is a crime to spray aerosol chemical mist into populated areas.”
Additional classified documents obtained by Martino Taylor show that between July 9, 1954 and August 1, 1953, 6 kilograms of zinc cadmium sulfide was aerosolized by U.S. Army aircraft over the unprotected city of Winnipeg. It is shown that it was dispersed as a cloud.

“He said Winnipeg is testing what it describes as a chemical fog to protect Winnipeg in the event of a Russian attack,” Martino-Taylor said. “They characterized it as a defensive study, when in fact it was an offensive study.”
“In principle, spraying aerosol chemical mist into populated areas is a crime, to say the least,” said pharmacist Frank Labella.
said Winnipeg Free Press. “At the time, there were no reports of illness, but even if there were, we couldn't distinguish it from other illnesses. If there were any lasting effects, we'll never know.”
Just 10 years later, planes carried out similar chemical dumps over the Alberta cities of Suffield and Medicine Hat, Martino-Taylor said.
When the U.S. military returned in 1964 to dump more chemicals, Canadian officials expressed concern that “U.S. military aircraft were emitting clearly visible emissions.”
If toxic chemicals were to visibly flow out of a government plane engaged in a top-secret military experiment, they would likely fall under the category of dangerous chemicals.
