Premier Brad Wall has waded into the turmoil in the United States via social media.
On Wednesday morning he tweeted, “If one side includes Nazis and the other side does not…there is no moral equivalency.”

The tweet quickly drew a response, showing that such division seen in the U.S. right now might not be that far away from Canadian soil.
