  • AB Today – Daily Report February 4, 2019
    AB Today – Daily Report February 4, 2019 Quotation of the day “The only thing more volatile than oil prices these days are cryptocurrencies, so I would say to Mr. Kenney, you’re going to have to do a little bit better than that.” Premier Rachel Notley criticizes UCP Leader Jason Kenney’s suggestion that the oil industry ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ could provide abundant energy for cryptocurrency mining. Today in AB On the schedule The legislature will reconvene on March 18 for the government’s final throne speech before the spring election. Election readiness events take centre stage as parties prepare for writ drop Premier Rachel Notley rallied party faithful at a campaign kickoff in Calgary on Thursday, a day ​ ​ ​ ​ ahead of the official election period. Per the Elections Act, February 1 marked the start of the campaign period and was the first day the premier had the option of calling the election. Under the act, the election can be called anytime between February 1 and May 3. Notley has previously stated the election will be held within the legislated time frame prescribed in the legislation, but has not yet set a date. Pundits are betting the writ will be dropped soon after the March 18 throne speech. “Make no mistake — the choice ahead is the starkest Albertans have faced in decades, a choice for how we build the future and a choice for whom that future is built,” Notley said at the rally. “Is it built for everyday families, workers, everyday Albertans, or is it built for those at the top — elite political insiders and the wealthiest one per cent?” With Notley’s popularity polling higher than her party’s, the NDP’s messaging has pivoted to building “Team Rachel.” Dozens of candidates and MLAs stood behind Notley on stage holding signs reading, “Rachel Notley.

    AB Today – Daily Report January 22, 2019 Quotation of the day “What is clear from research by my team and other leading institutes is that oil sands expansion is inconsistent with preventing warming greater than two degrees celsius. If the NEB is considering climate change, no further expansion of delivery infrastructure from the oil sands should be approved.” Mark Jaccard, climate-energy economics professor at Simon Fraser University, calls on the ​ ​ ​ National Energy Board to review climate impacts during its reconsideration of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. Today in AB On the schedule The Legislature will reconvene on March 18 for the government’s final throne speech before the spring election. Minister, government whip announce they will not seek re-election Two high-profile NDP MLAs announced Monday they will not be seeking re-election. Infrastructure Minister Sandra Jansen, the infamous PC floor-crosser representing ​ ​ Calgary—North West, and Government Whip Estefania Cortes-Vargas, the first-term MLA ​ ​ ​ ​ from Strathcona—Sherwood Park, won’t be running for the NDP when the writ drops. In her exit statement, Jansen praised Premier Rachel Notley’s leadership, but said “after many ​ ​ years in public life” leaving politics is “the right decision for me and my family.” “Let me say, this is not an easy decision,” Jansen said. “I am proud of what I have been able to accomplish on behalf of my constituents, particularly over these last two years.” On Monday, her Twitter account was deleted. After defecting from the PCs to the NDP in 2016, Jansen temporarily brought on extra security from the Executive Protection Unit after receiving death threats.
