OTTAWA -- Premier-designate Jason Kenney says that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s so-called “grand bargain” of seeking to advance resource development by gaining the approval of those with environmental concerns died on Alberta’s election day.
In his first appearance on the show since winning a decisive majority government in Tuesday’s provincial election, Kenney spoke about his plans to make it known that Alberta is “open for business,” and his intention to fight for “a fair deal” for Albertans. “If there’s a change of government there will be no federal carbon tax,” he said. In the meantime he is working to form an “interprovincial coalition that is pro-energy, pro-pipeline.”
“There’s five allies now… Five of the 10 provinces, with 60 per cent of the population in the country,” Manning said. “Please tell me that the plan that Justin Trudeau has been failing at for three-and-a-half years isn’t all they’ve got. They need to retool … and come forward with something reasonable that reflects the democratic reality of what we saw in Alberta on election night,” Moore said.
Get ready to turn very American Alberta
Everything the PM has done is a complete failure.
Who cares?
He's right, it is. Trudeau is demonizing the Canadian energy sector while importing millions of barrels of Saudi oil. Trudeau's policies are just as destructive as the 1980's NEP, perhaps worse. TrudeauMustGo worstPMever
The policy is one thing. End all fossil fuels. Period.
Lumberist What is with all the 5+ year, single digit followers piping up all of a sudden? What's the term for you guys again?
best money we can spend once Trudeaus kicked to the curb will be to start deporting the trouble back to middle east so they can rebuild as Europe did after second world war.
Agreed. Imagine you are an investor in the energy sector & the leader of Canada publicly states he wants to phase out the oil sands (energy sector). Would you invest? I wouldn’t. Trudeau is a disaster.
Time to break up big media companies .
Campaigning for Scheer already? Hopefully when he’s premier he can actually try to work with other leaders. Not sure how badmouthing is going to get 💩 done
badjamjam No, traitor trudeau’s policy is to destroy Canada’s 1 industry and the most ethical oil production in the world...mission accomplished aboutpipelines OilGasCanada jkenney PremierScottMoe PipelineAction OilsandsAction Alberta NEP2 Calgary Edmonton TrudeauMustGo
Is Kenny ready to buy the Transmountain Pipeline from the Feds? Just more mouth music and slogans like his new buddy Ford.
Here we go! The only play book. Tar sands!
the premiere hasn't even been officially sworn in and his policy is a failure. what stupidity from a so called journalist, comes across as petty politics.
I agree JustinTrudeau 's 'Grand bargain' failed, my suggested solutions are dramatically different
👍
Everything the PM does is 'a complete failure'
