Plus I'd also like to remark that Rachel Notley getting pipelines approved with Justin Trudeau is a different story from what is happening now. The reason Notley got pipelines approved is because she worked with the Federal government to ensure environmental regulation, where previous Conservative governments did not. I'm not a fan of pipelines, but I'd rather Notley did it with a modicum of care and responsibility, than a Conservative government who wants to bypass environmental regulation to pass pipelines. The latter, unfortunately, is what Mark Carney has done, bypassing environmental regulations and making direct concessions with Danielle Smith to pass "her" pipeline through a Memorandum of Understanding. Carney's pipeline is all about dismantling the current climate policies that were in place at the time. That shohld be indefensible to a party with principles.

So ABNDP, how about we get a little less "we will build the pipelines no matter what!" (like Danielle Smith and Mark Carney) from you, and a little more, "we need to diversify our energy economy away from just raping the environment," (like Avi Lewis) from you? And show a little solidarity with the non-ownership class. You can absolutely champion oil workers along with all the other workers in Alberta, without championing the corporations who exploit their labour and exploit our resources. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #oil #energy #Environment #climate #climatechange #climatecrisis #solidarity
