text: At his request, I met with Prime Minister Mark Carney @MarkJCarney today. We had a very frank discussion in which I made it clear that Albertans will no longer tolerate the way we've been treated by the federal Liberals over the past 10 years. 
  
  I provided a specific list of demands the next Prime Minister, regardless of who that is, must address within the first six months of their term to avoid an unprecedented national unity crisis. 
  
  This includes:
  
  • Guaranteeing Alberta full access to oil and gas corridors to the north, east, and west
  
  • Repealing Bill C-69 (aka. “no new pipelines act”)
  
  • Lifting the tanker ban off the BC coast
  
  • Eliminating the oil and gas emissions cap, which is a production cap
  
  • Scrapping the so-called Clean Electricity Regulations
  
  • Ending the prohibition on single use plastics
  
  • Abandoning the net-zero car mandate
  
  • Returning oversight of the industrial carbon tax to the provinces
  
  • Halting the federal censorship of energy companies
  
  I also made it clear that Alberta, as owner of the resource, will not accept an export tax or restriction of Alberta’s oil and gas to the United States, and that our province is no longer agreeable to subsidizing other large provinces who are fully capable of funding themselves. Lastly, I made it clear that federal mismanagement of Jasper and Banff national parks resulted in last year’s tragic wildfire in Jasper and is endangering Banff, and the situation must be rectified immediately.  
  
  With the federal election about to be called, I encourage all Albertans to get involved in what is likely one of the most pivotal and important elections in our nation’s history, and to support the party and candidates that have consistently advocated for freeing Alberta from federal overreach and the repeated economic attacks our province has faced from Ottawa over the past 10 years.
