"While offering remarks in support of Alberta’s energy industry that includes fighting a federal government rule decreeing net-zero power emissions by 2035, Smith said trying to have the province go off natural gas for power generation by that year would be impossible after a heckler interrupted her."

Meanwhile, power prices have gone up 140% in Alberta. Her government also froze the development of new renewable projects for 6 months

No ulterior motives to her strategic planning. No siree, Bob.

It's frustrating, because Alberta is set up well to benefit from some renewable methods.

Most often the real question isn't wether or not it's possible, but if they actually want it to happen

It certainly is, with that attitude. A fucking egoistic attitude.
