Alberta premier-designate Jason Kenney walks out of a meeting with outgoing NDP Premier Rachel Notley, in Edmonton, on April 18, 2019.Alberta’s premier-designate Jason Kenney says he plans to dip into the private sector as he staffs a campaign-style “war room” to push back against environmental groups and negative media coverage of the province’s oil industry.
Mr. Kenney has complained that environmental groups have peddled misinformation about the oil industry and used foreign funding to wage public-relations and legal fights to block new pipelines.Last month, a Toronto councillor raised the prospect of suing oil companies over the effects of climate change, as other cities have considered doing. Mr. Kenney wrote Toronto Mayor John Tory and the motion was dropped.
He also plans to launch legal challenges over the federal carbon tax and other environmental legislation, threatens to cut off oil shipments to B.C., and to hold a referendum on equalization.Earlier on Thursday, the federal government confirmed it had extended the deadline for cabinet to decide whether to approve the Trans Mountain expansion project by nearly a month to June 18, from May 22.

The idea of a dink. Wasting money to hide the truth from the public. Alberta just landed itself in big trouble.
