Danielle Smith says she's called for a review into allegations one of her staff members tried to influence Alberta's crown prosecutors.

The premier announced the review Saturday on Corus Entertainment's "Your Province, Your Premier" radio program.

"As soon as we see if the emails exist, then we'll make sure that we have a presentation to the public," Smith said on the show. "We'll know next week." News of the review hasn't quieted opposition NDP calls for a full, independent investigation done by an outside party. "There's so much there that it does need to be investigated," Bratt told CTV News. "What version of events do you believe from the premier? Do you believe the videos that you saw? Do you believe her statements on the radio? Do you believe the statements that come out of her office? Bratt -- along with many Albertans on social media -- also pointed to what could be a major flaw in the review.

Lol just do what trudeau would do throw some insignificant party member under the bus

Anything less than the immediate resignation of Dani and her justice minister is not enough

Staff member?

When will Preston Manning be releasing the findings of the review?

Good for her ….. it’s ridiculous she has to spend so much of her time with these little Karen melt downs from the NDP….. thank you Danielle for getting us pain meds for kids. Thank you for the progress made to help those who are addicted and homeless.

PeterAmbler14 Nobody cares. We can see that it's a nothing burger from the NDP

PeterAmbler14 Nothing to see here. It's just because Danielle is doing such a great job.

Ridiculous ... this is just a DuaneBratt witch hunt ... completely unnecessary ... Republican style vendetta politics brought to Canada ...

She's going to 'investigate' what exactly? She's the one who gave the original order back in October when she took over the office. It's not a mystery, but by all means spend money on what we already know to be true.

😂😂😂😂😂

I feel much better now - good god! Is Casey doing it? He has great credentials.

It was at her behest .

Wtf? Wasn't it her? She literally said she did it

ABDanielleSmith said that she was the one who talked to the crown prosecutors on TV.

As if she's going to review herself.

Maybe the FEDS should investigate for real? RCMP have some time still

Watch them say this conduct is unacceptable and they decided let this 'staffer' go. But won't for some reason, ever identify this mystery person. Media should question this they unearth the next lie. if this person was M/F, received severance and if so how much.

She said on national news that she was going to drop the charges 🤷

She is so worried about it, she is going to ensure that only those loyal to her will be doing the 'investigating'

one of her staff members wink wink

Manning heading that one up too? Or maybe kenney? Useless group of people.

After of course her explicitly saying and then recanting that she did in fact do that very thing herself. Right?
