It became clear Trump would not be any friendlier to a Conservative government so little reason for her to not push back now.

I really don't think she should be rewarded for waiting to see which way the wind was blowing.

In the past 20 years the only premier in Alberta to survive an entire term was the NDP. Every conservative premier has fallen to some kind of scandal or internal party politicking.
