One lawyer said the move effectively suspends environmental regulation in the province cdnpoli

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and Environment Minister Jason Nixon, chat before the speech from the throne is delivered in Edmonton on May 21, 2019. Alberta has suspended environmental reporting requirements for industry under three major pieces of legislation.

Since Alberta’s regulatory system depends on self-reporting, the move effectively suspends environmental regulation in the province, said Shaun Fluker, a law professor at the University of Calgary. “There are a lot of industrial sites far from public view that will be able to escape a lot of pubic scrutiny.”

If it’s ever requested, said Fluker, who added the move will create an information gap on what’s going on with the province’s environment.

A born loser

This is the lamest excuse Kenny has ever come up with and he knows a thing or two about lame excuses. He invented the genre.

The kunney government is saying because there is a noticeable improvement in the quality of the air this allows industry to increase air quality pollution

BS!

Industry doesn't need a break: they're hardly rushed off their feet right now.

No company wants to be known as an unregulated polluter. No company wants to do business with unregulated polluters. It’s bad will no one wants to be associated with. UCP stop living in the past.

Jason kenny has no regard for the people,he takes care of the big corporation,trying to scab a high level position when he looses the next election

Fuck Industry. they don't need a break.
