Alberta’s Finance Minister twice accepted tickets to watch the Edmonton Oilers from a luxury suite during this spring’s playoff run, and said while he believes the province’s recently relaxed ethics rules are adequate, he is open to adjusting them to improve transparency.
When asked why the government keeps information about gifts under wraps despite ruling them acceptable, Mr. Horner indicated a willingness to revise the rules in favour of proactive disclosure. Ms. Smith, at a press conference July 22, said she and her chief of staff each wrote a letter to the ethics commissioner asking for advice interpreting the Conflicts of Interest Act. Her office has not acknowledged repeated requests to release the letters.
“I’m the Minister of Tourism and Sport,” he said. “I got invited by lots of friends and stakeholders. So I’m not going to go into detail about that.” The Premier told Postmedia that Explore Edmonton, the local tourism agency, and the Oilers provided her with tickets in Alberta’s capital. Explore Edmonton confirmed it hosted Ms. Smith in its loge seating when the Oilers beat the Dallas Stars to win the Western Conference on June 2.
