Alberta's Indigenous relations minister says a last-minute war of words with a First Nations leader over a multibillion-dollar oilsands mine is a case of bare-knuckle bargaining.

In 2019, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney made good on his promise to take a blowtorch to core policies enacted by the former NDP government.

In the last five years, Rachel Notley has gone from third-party leader, to government leader to Opposition leader, but says she will try again for Alberta's top job in 2023.

“I told the prime minister in May I’m prepared to talk to him about that,” Kenney said Monday, after being asked whether he would keep the oilsands emissions cap in place. 

Notley's letter to Lois Mitchell asks her to block assent for Bill 22. The NDP will also be calling for an emergency debate in the legislature.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney says his government will cut program spending by close to three per cent in Thursday's, October 24, 2019, provincial budget.

The environmentalist has faced an onslaught of harassment over her opposition to the oilsands and pipelines. She is concerned that the organized personal demonization of her and other activists is putting a chill on open dialogue in Alberta about climate change and fossil fuels.

Newly released figures show the Alberta government ended the last fiscal year with a deficit more than $2 billion smaller than originally predicted in the budget.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is lauding the federal government's decision to approve for a second time the construction of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline expansion project.

The new Alberta government of Jason Kenney introduced its first piece on legislation on Wednesday, to scrap the province’s carbon tax, raising the stakes in its fight with the federal Liberal government over climate action.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney's government heads to the legislature this week to make noise with an ambitious legislative agenda while trying to keep a hush on daily affairs.

Premier Jason Kenney says Alberta's carbon tax has about two weeks to live.

British Columbia's premier fought battles over the Trans Mountain pipeline on two fronts on Wednesday, going to court against Alberta's premier, who wants the line expanded, while urging Ottawa to start shipping more gasoline through the pipe that's already there.

The federal government of Justin Trudeau took the initiative on Jason Kenney's first day in power in Alberta, offering to exempt a list of specific oilsands operations from environmental assessment if the new UCP government sticks to Rachel Notley​​​​​​​'s 100 megatonne emissions cap.

An online campaign that started out as a tongue in cheek response to premier-designate Jason Kenney’s promise to develop a $30-million “war room” against environmental activists in Alberta is picking up steam.
