Opposition New Democrat energy critic Kathleen Ganley says there should be a conversation about the pilot project happening with the public
The Alberta government is moving ahead with a plan that would give oil and gas companies a tax break for meeting their legal obligations to clean up old well sites, inviting a select group of landowner organizations to a meeting to discuss a pilot project.
Opposition New Democrat energy critic Kathleen Ganley said there should be a conversation about the pilot project happening with the public. “For some reason, we’re incentivizing future royalties to eliminate liabilities when profits are high,” said Paul McLauchlin of Rural Municipalities Alberta. “It’s very confusing to a lot of people.”
“Indigenous groups, municipalities, industry associations, oil and gas companies, landowners and other groups have been asked to provide feedback on the proposed criteria,” she said in an email.
