Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says she expects a new energy deal between her province and the federal government to be forthcoming in the near future.
Alberta and the federal government have been working on an energy agreement amidst the province’s concerns about federal energy policies affecting the oil and gas sector. Media reports citing government sources this week said that the agreement could involve a proposal for a new Alberta-B.C. oil pipeline, and could also include possible exemptions to the oil tanker ban on areas of B.C.’s north coast.
