Alberta and Ontario premiers to discuss energy policy in Calgary
Energy policy takes center stage as Smith and Ford discuss Alberta’s oil exports See how Canada plans to move resources to market amid trade tensions and new pressures
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Ontario Premier Doug Ford are scheduled to appear together in Calgary on Monday to discuss energy policy.
The event will focus on how Canada can move its natural resources to market amid shifting political conditions and international tensions.
Smith has made expanding access to oil exports a central issue for her government, including efforts to move more oil to the British Columbia coast for shipment to Asian markets. The discussion also comes as Canada continues to deal with a tariff dispute with the United States. Ford has said he does not believe oil should be excluded from the conversation, while noting that both premiers want more energy to move within Canada.
