Alberta premier won’t commit to sovereignty act to rebut feds’ ‘just transition’ plan
Premier Danielle Smith won’t commit to using Alberta’s controversial sovereignty act to rebut looming federal “just transition” legislation, which she calls an existential threat to her province’s bedrock oil and gas industry.
“It is one more tool in us pushing back against Ottawa. I think we’ve got lots of tools at our disposal,” she said. Her United Conservative Party government passed in December a constitutionally questionable sovereignty bill that grants Alberta the power to direct its agencies to flout federal laws and initiatives deemed inimical to provincial interests.
Last week, federal Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said Ottawa will move ahead this spring with legislation to provide the framework for the transition plan.
