Canada's new minister of the environment and climate change responded Wednesday to allegations out of Alberta that he is a 'radical environmentalist' who may try to kill jobs in the oilpatch.

Canada's new minister of the environment and climate change responded Wednesday to allegations out of Alberta that he is a "radical environmentalist" who may try to kill jobs in the oilpatch.

"We put a price on pollution, and we will continue to increase this price on pollution. We want more transit, we want more clean energy, we want more renewable energy, and we want less pollution," he told reporters. "I hope that he will send a signal that he is willing to work constructively and cooperatively with us, as partners, in reducing greenhouse gas emissions while growing the economy," Kenney said.

Alberta Environment Minister Jason Nixon called Guilbeault a "radical environmentalist" and invited him to come out west so he can see Alberta oil and gas operations for himself.The new federal minister said he was open to travelling to Alberta and promised to work with "anyone in the country" to fight climate change.

So, no secret agenda, well ive got some property in Fla. for sale, will be great soon as the swamp dries up. If you believe the the first lie, you wont have any problem with the second.

I don't think his agenda is very secret.

We will see how many pipeline projects get approved

The thing that sucks the most is the fact that hard working Canadians will be paying the most for this so called transition. Doesn’t matter if you’re for it or not , if you’re in the working class , be prepared to make less money and work harder while the rich get richer.

His agenda is no secret.

This is like putting a White supremacist in charge of race relations.

you know you might have a small provincial problem when the Alberta NDP and UCP both send up red flags immediatly after your environment minister is appointed

Oh no, this agenda is way out the open.

Idiots running the country that only 30% ~of the people voted for. Hope everyone has lots of savings for what’s coming. If not good luck!
