Alberta politician cites oil cap impact on jobs and GDP
In a keynote on energy policy, he warns the proposed oil emission cap would slash oil output by one million barrels per day by 2030 and 2035, cost 92,000 Alberta jobs, and reduce government revenues by 12 billion dollars. He cites the Conference Board of Canada projections of Canada losing 151,000 jobs and GDP slipping to 14.3 percent by 2030. He notes solar and wind rely on steel, aluminum, plastics, and natural gas in Alberta mornings with no sun or wind. He adds glass sand supply and global sand sourcing concerns from National Geographic. Shields emphasizes resilience in the province’s stance.
