Former 🇨🇦 Cabinet Minister Steven Guilbeault states re AB-Ottawa/Federal government energy MOU:
The budget “explicitly mentioned that we're excluding "enhanced oil recovery" from the tax credit -- a demand from Green Party Leader Elizabeth May that Guilbeault had communicated to Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne as her red line.
“Then Elizabeth votes for us with the budget, and then, we turn around two weeks later, barely, and we include this in the MOU with Alberta."
"This is unacceptable, I gave my word to Elizabeth, we gave our word as a party to Elizabeth, and we're betraying our word to her.”
