Nixon added that Van Tighem also compares the province's energy industry to slavery and energy workers to slaves.in 2021 and in a YouTube interview last May, he shared his frustration over Alberta developing a reputation of being "entitled, grabby, resource exploiters.""An addict doesn't want to face reality," he wrote. "He or she just wants to know there will be a next fix. There will be. We're already in that fix. Oil sucks. And we're the suckers.
Regarding pipelines, he wrote, "New pipelines, should they come, will simply perpetuate our hopeless addiction to a doomed and destructive energy source."In a field outside Okotoks Friday morning, Chantelle de Jonge, who's running for the UCP in Chestermere-Strathmore, said Van Tighem owes Albertans an apology.
