The Chief of Staff of Alberta's Energy Minister claims (on X) that his (UCP) government has been responsible for increasing the orphan levy. If this is true, isn't that government interference in the regulator? Marciano is government staff, he doesn't work for the AER... #ABLeg #ABPoli

This is an example of rural Albertans who may have typically voted conservative (not always true), who are gaining the courage to speak out against the oil & gas industry. It's an opportunity to build solidarity across differences, and your first instinct is to treat them like shit? #ABLeg #ABPoli

Another story on this farmer being exposed to oil and gas emissions. Tim went there to do the OGI work for us last year. He explained what he saw. "They just were continuously venting the whole time we were there," he said, adding this was common at sites he visited in other provinces.
