BANFF, Alta. — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith told a business conference on Friday that despite her concerns with the federal Liberal government, there are some cabinet ministers she can work with.
Smith has been at odds with federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson amid concerns over Ottawa's climate-change policies and transition plan for a net-zero emissions economy.
Wilkinson's call for the industry to work aggressively to get to net-zero was basically telling them to"pack it up, because the oil and gas industry is winding down," said Smith. Smith said energy producing provinces such as Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador, can't trust the Trudeau government to look out for their interests at international conferences.
"Let's give her credit for shepherding through all of the constant need to give more debt financing to Trans Mountain pipeline to get that to the finish line. That has not been easy," Smith said.
