“The biggest learning from this is that the province has oversight and control over what information the federal government is receiving,” said Mandy Olsgard, a toxicologist who has worked on regulatory issues for the Alberta Energy Regulator and Indigenous groups.“They just hand it off to the province.”
“It’s a general message of don’t rock the boat,” he said. “It permeates the department of energy and it permeates Alberta Environment.” A survey conducted in 2021 for Alberta Environment found more than 85 per cent of Albertans had little confidence in the regulator’s ability to govern industry, in that case coal. The survey also reported Albertans found the agency reluctant to release information and was not very transparent.
He said the province and the regulator have already refused to tell him the scope and timeline for the investigation of the leak. Savage wouldn’t commit to making the results of the investigation public, Schmidt said, nor would she promise to release results from an internal investigation into whether the regulator followed notification rules.
Boy, this just goes to show you how the Calgary herald has no clue what they are talking about.

Simple solution, at least for reporting: Anyone responsible for a spill should be required to report the spill/leak on a publicly accessible portal within 24 hours. No report? Also simple, $1 million penalty/day late. You got that right. You could never do this in Alberta:
