Alberta governments have had such a cosy relationship with oil and gas companies that, at times, you’d think they should be holding their discussions in a motel room.
Smith defends the plan as a job-creating strategy and solution to a decades-old environmental problem involving more than 170,000 abandoned and inactive well sites, an unspecified number of which are leaking contaminates into the soil and groundwater.That’s because she initially promoted this idea in 2021, when she was a registered lobbyist for a consortium of private companies called the Alberta Enterprise Group. The Alberta government rejected the idea at the time.
As leader of the Wildrose party more than a decade ago, she was closely linked to junior oil companies that were opposed to then-premier Ed Stelmach’s move to hike royalty rates on the energy sector.
