Former Alberta Premier Jim Prentice, a member of the Trilateral Commission, died in an airplane crash outside of Kelowna, BC. He was named Premier after Allison 'MoneyMe' Redford was forced to resign over mishandling of expenses. Because an extreme distrust of the Alberta 'Conservatives' (liberals by another name), they were thrown out in 2015.

Don’t think so. The airplane was a 1974 Cessna Citation that carried no cockpit voice recorder or flight data recorder, nor were they required. There was also no emergency or distress calls. Of course, the TSB will do a full investigation to determine the cause.

42 years old could raise the question of possible fatigue failure.
Didn’t look like the weather was bad.

I suspect severe icing at flight level followed by rapid loss of altitude. Weather conditions in the area were not very good, strong front moving through, but just my hunch, could have been structural failure from turbulence. According to news reports the plane had reached a height several thousand feet above regional hilltops (but probably in the worst of the weather).

Hillary or Obamao.
The known Alberta connection is Cruz. Ted Cruz’s parents became Canadian citizens and were living in Alberta, registered to vote in Calgary.

The known Alberta connection is Cruz. Ted Cruz’s parents became Canadian citizens and were living in Alberta, registered to vote in Calgary. Irrelevant.
Lake Okanagen is a beautiful spot in British Columbia.
Not in Alberta. And no connection to Cruz, even if that were not the case.
