Alberta’s Environment Minister Rebecca Schulz is firing back at British Columbia Premier David Eby and coastal First Nations, who are demanding the feds uphold an oil tanker ban.
These waterways already have much oil tanker and cruise ship traffic, so it would be helpful if we had a better explanation regarding how these specific tanker bans protect indigenous jobs, culture and spiritual way of life.
Tanker ships are running from Alaska to Seattle on a regular basis, they only want to ban ships that will allow us to get Alberta oil to the world market.
Wow. You hit the nail on the head. But telling us is like preaching to the choir. Can you get enough hard data to persuade a big group like the Canadian Taxpayers Federation or Rebel News or even the Western Standard to expose it to the Canadian public? How many tankers are off the north west coast: one per day, one per week, one or two per month, Two per year? Find out and get the show on the road!
Being all but vaporised in the last federal election, the NDP - even at Eby's provincial level - appears to be adopting the role of Guardians of the Green Universe.
Along with imposing that self-appointed mandate on Alberta and the rest of Canada, they have also co-opted JagMeat Singh's ability to dictate national policy . With, of course, the Liberal party's blessing. Without that blessing, the NDP would vanish, at the national and provincial level.
Singh was - and still is - a pompous, self-important Khalistani idiot, interested only in his golden pension. Eby is worse. Not only blocking pipelines, but also championing the WEF's dictates to eliminate private property ownership.
Give it up Alberta. Separate and save yourselves. Budget 2025 billions of taxpayer $$$$ to feed the friends of the corrupt Liberals, Laurentians, Maritimers, Brookfield, country of quebec, province of toronto, Canada's 450,000 Liberal bureaucrats, muslims, illegals, natives, DEI, notice anything missing? Yes the Real Canadians paying for the train wreck.
There is already and continues to be a lot of foreign tanker traffic off the BC mainland and eastern Canadian coasts. However Ottawa, BC and Quebec will not allow any Alberta oil to be shipped from the BC coast....This is yet another in the growing list of reasons why Alberta needs to gain its independence from the corruption of Canada....BC, Quebec and the Laurentian elite liberal regime wallow in their arrogant, pompous, self-righteous and sanctimonious hypocrisy.....

This country will never move forward if we continue to deny provinces the right to develop their resources.
Let's see, a ban on BC lumber, liquor, rail freight, going through Alberta should do it.
Eby, the virtue is signalling-moron, Nenshi, and the first nations must get the hell out of the way!!!
Other countries tankers go by their coastline every day
So it is a moot point!!!
The only way Canada can recover from outrageous financial woes and deficits is to sell our biggest resource, which is crude and LNG!!!!!
And of course, mining big-time in the ring of fire immediately!!!! Quit bloody talking about it and get busy
Build the pipeline NOW!!!!!
Tanker bans support jobs? What jobs? Seriously, name a few!

The tanker ban is a catalyst to economic growth??? Just like tying a tennis players hands behind his back would be a catalyst to victory!
Can we not make a deal with Alaska to load tankers for us?
There are tankers going through there, they are just not carrying canadian oil, its coming from alaska.
Time for Smith to put her words into action, hold a plebiscite and separate .
