Coming off the hottest year and worst wildfire season in recorded history you might think Canada as a whole would have finally learned our lesson and gone all in on climate solutions but you'd be wrong as the prime political discussion in Canada these days are about getting rid of our carbon tax with precious little about what climate solutions we'd like in their place. This sentiment is strongest in Alberta where our once mighty clean energy industry was first hobbled by a 6 month moratorium then followed by far reaching anti-renewable policy in place for the foreseeable future. To help us break down all this today we have Martin Olszynski, Associate Professor at the University Of Calgary, Faculty of Law.

On Sept 28th 2023 the Alberta government launched an 8 million dollar cross country media campaign called "Tell The Feds" reaching audiences in Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and of course here in Alberta. This campaign makes a number of dubious claims about Canada's efforts for a net zero energy grid by 2035 which would pave the way for a net zero country in 2050. To help us sort through some of the claims of this campaign we have with us today
