Alberta's squeeze on renewable energy has pushed investment to other provinces
Alberta's squeeze on renewable energy has pushed investment to other provinces
"Big surprise" said everyone with half a brain.
Seriously though, this is working exactly as intended by the UCP - they want to have Alberta's faith pinned to the petro dollar to stay in power. Hard times, global downturn? Blame everyone for ruining Alberta's precious oil industry -> vote UCP to stick it to the federal government. Good times, oil boom? The UCP freed us from the green yoke the federal government is trying to force on us -> vote UCP to keep your heard-earned success.
Oh look the fiscally responsible conservatives chased away good positive jobs and money. No fucking surprise there.
I'm sure this is all due to Naheed Nenshi or Rachel Notley.. Somehow.
It's all right. When their archaic petro-economy collapses, we'll send them equalization payments.
