Moe, Smith repeat calls for federal action and support for energy projects
The premiers of Alberta and Saskatchewan are repeating their calls for federal support for energy projects and the abandonment of some industry regulations.
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe and Alberta’s Danielle Smith say if Prime Minister Mark Carney wants Canada to have the strongest G7 economy, he needs to repeal policies like the West Coast tanker ban and net-zero electricity regulations.
Moe says Canada’s top priority should be building an energy corridor that connects the northwest coast to the coast of Hudson Bay.
It’s a pitch premiers have been making for over a month, since it was a featured recommendation at the western premiers’ conference last month.
