EDMONTON — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says she's bringing the province's energy"war room" under the purview of her office because she needs to take on the fight with Ottawa on behalf of the energy industry.
The United Conservative Party premier defended the centre's work, releasing reports and information about the industry, and balked at the moniker"war room." Smith's government has called those proposals to restrict advertising in the industry laughable and an attempt to muzzle talk of good faith efforts to reduce emissions.
Tom Olsen, the head of the centre, who is due to exit the role in three weeks, issued a statement on social media saying he's proud of its work, which"speaks for itself."
