This week on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel discusses Premier Danielle Smith who said Ottawa’s hostility to Alberta’s oil and gas industry emerged from the “extreme left” policies of environmental social governance (ESG).

Meanwhile, Alberta Pastor Tim Stephens was acquitted this week on charges of violating the province’s public health orders which required physical distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Also on the show, Alberta Justice Minister Tyler Shandro says the federal government is withholding official communication about a recent federal-provincial meeting because Alberta requested that Ottawa name provinces opposed to its gun grab scheme.
