For the Kenney government and almost anybody interested in oil and gas investment, it was the Sunday night slaughter — sudden news that Teck Resources has cancelled its $20-billion Frontier oilsands mine.
But soon enough, Premier Jason Kenney blasted Ottawa for creating such chaotic security risks, including the refusal to clear rail blockades, that the company felt it couldn’t go ahead at this time. Earlier Sunday, Environment Minister Jason Nixon was proudly announcing crucial new agreements with Mikisew Cree First Nation and Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation.
“The Government of Alberta repeatedly asked what more we could do to smooth the approval process. We did our part, but the federal government’s inability to convey a clear or unified position let us, and Teck, down.”
Don Braids Column: Where Conservative Intellect goes to die... what an embarrassing column here... so far off the mark that okboomer is the tip of the iceberg that's melting. Is PostmediaNews content to be written in the history books as a complete pro-oil failure?* yyc yeg
Leadership is important. We've been led in the wrong direction and are now lost as a country. For crying out loud, Trudeau must go....

Teck pulling out was a fantastic decision! They could read the writing on the wall for the Tarsands. It was a bad project from day 1. 293 pristine sq. Km. saved! Kenney should resign for betting the province of Alberta on a dying industry. $4B taken from Alberduh for NOTHING!
Seriously - what energy project of any material size can get built in Canada now...ie new ones starting from today. Absolutely nothing is the answer. Just wait for the long-term fall-out my fellow 🇨🇦
I wonder if Trudeau will buy the project off Teck?
