EDMONTON — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith should come clean on whether funding for her leadership campaign has influenced her government's agenda, says the province's New Democrat Opposition.
As president of the Alberta Enterprise Group, an influential Calgary-based business lobby, Smith wrote then-energy minister Sonya Savage and met with her several times to pitch what was then known as the RStar program. Smith was a registered lobbyist with the group until less than a year ago when she decided to run for the UCP leadership.But after winning the leadership, Smith immediately made RStar a priority, writing it into her new energy minister's mandate letter.
Smith's office has not responded to requests to address questions about how her campaign fundraising has affected her governing priorities. However, an analysis from Scotiabank said companies best placed to take advantage of the program were four healthy companies that recorded a combined net income of nearly $5 billion last quarter.
