A political meme styled as a sports metaphor. In the foreground is a close-up of a worn baseball resting on reddish dirt near home plate. The stadium in the background is softly lit under a dramatic sunset sky, evoking a sense of finality or tension. White bold text dominates the upper half of the image. It reads: “THREE STRIKES, STILL PREMIER?” WRONG ABOUT VACCINES WRONG ABOUT PENSIONS WRONG ABOUT COAL MINES At the bottom of the image, in a darker textbox, it says: “Isn’t it three strikes and you’re out?” The visual metaphor equates Danielle Smith’s major political missteps to strikes in baseball, suggesting that she has repeatedly failed on key issues yet remains in power. Each "strike" refers to a specific policy failure: COVID-19 vaccine misinformation and access issues, the deeply unpopular Alberta Pension Plan proposal, and support for controversial coal mine development. The question challenges the public to consider why continued leadership is tolerated despite these clear signals of public opposition.
Three strikes: vaccines, pensions, coal.
Each time, Albertans said no.
Each time, Smith plowed ahead anyway.
Overwhelming public opposition doesn’t stop her—it fuels her agenda.
So why is she still Premier?
