Premier Rachel Notley of Alberta made a 'state of the province' address on Oct. 19, 2016, wherein she claimed the NDP government was the first to make headway on climate change policies. Friends of Science Society points to the historic firsts on climate change and environmental management set out by the previous Progressive Conservative government, beginning in 2002, and we list a number of the many energy efficiency initiatives and innovative R&D projects undertaken at that time. Foreign funded environmental groups proliferated in that period and purposefully blackened the reputation of Alberta, some of them reportedly proxies for renewables investors, others were (perhaps unwitting) hands in a geopolitical trade war against Alberta and Canada. When will our governments address this interference in Albertan and Canadian energy policies and trade?
