Edmonton Wildrose say Environment Minister Shannon Phillips aided a 2004 Greenpeace protest guide titled An Action a Day Keeps Global Capitalism Away. The book outlines protests from chants to blockades and credits Phillips as editor and contributor in an introduction co authored by Hudema. Premier Notley calls the criticisms partisan mudslinging.
