Tucker Carlson's Alberta Events Spark Outrage Among Canadian Officials

Officials accuse Carlson of importing American-style 'MAGA' politics, inciting political violence, and being a Putin apologist.

Tucker Carlson, former Fox News host, held two sold-out events in Alberta, Canada, sparking outrage among Canadian officials.
Carlson's speeches, which criticized the Canadian government, mainstream media, and LGBTQ people, were seen as evidence of American-style 'MAGA' politics infiltrating Canada.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith joined Carlson on stage, criticizing Ottawa and encouraging Carlson to target Canada's environment minister, Steven Guilbeault.
Guilbeault accused Smith of normalizing rhetoric that could incite political violence, a claim that was echoed by other Canadian officials.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau linked Carlson to Russian President Vladimir Putin and accused Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre of appeasing Putin apologists.
