Summary
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says a new era of cooperation is emerging between Alberta and Ottawa on energy projects, citing past successes and recent progress like the West Coast pipeline MOU as proof. After years of tension with federal policies under Justin Trudeau, Smith now sees Prime Minister Mark Carney as open to win-win solutions, especially on balancing emissions goals with oil and gas development. She’s hopeful that Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault’s departure could ease tensions, while pushing back against federal pressure to phase out fossil fuels. Smith also highlights progress on methane emissions and carbon pricing, with carbon capture tech talks ahead. Though some Albertans remain skeptical, she’s set clear milestones for pipeline approval and construction. Despite criticism over her independence referendum question, Smith insists Alberta remains fully committed to Canada — arguing that Ottawa is finally listening to the West.
