Devil In the Details: Carney's Pipeline Deal Hidden Cost NOBODY is Talking About | The Fighter
Description
Alberta just got a big “maybe” from Ottawa, but what’s the real price tag? In this episode of The Fighter, Kris Sims breaks down the new Ottawa–Alberta energy memorandum: promises of lifting the emissions cap, easing the tanker ban, and opening the door to new pipelines, but also the risk of much higher industrial carbon costs.
Economist Dr. Jack Mintz explains how these carbon measures could raise production costs, hit taxpayers, and affect jobs and investment in Alberta.
Kris also covers a major First Nations transparency victory. Frog Lake First Nation member Hans McCarthy, supported by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, won a court case forcing Ottawa to release long-hidden financial records from a $100-million trust. CTF’s Devin Drover and Gage Haubrich explain why this ruling matters for Indigenous communities across Canada seeking real accountability.
