| Alberta Energy Minister Sonya Savage |
Alberta's United Conservative Party (UCP) Energy Minister Sonya Savage today issued
the following statement on Alberta’s Fight Back Strategy.
The time has come for Alberta to fight back.
For more than a decade, anti-fossil fuel interest groups from around the
world have been leading a deceitful campaign to land-lock the oilsands. Not only
has this campaign – founded entirely on lies – damaged the reputation of our
world-class energy sector, it has caused significant damage to our province and
hurt thousands of people who work hard and are proud of the work they do.
Enough is enough. Our government is taking a stand and is fighting for
Alberta energy and the hardworking Albertans who rely on our oil and gas
industry to put food on the table for their families.
I’m pleased to announce award-winning oil and gas journalist Claudia
Cattaneo has joined the fight against the lies and myths being spread about
Alberta’s energy industry.
Ms. Cattaneo has been contracted to develop a strategic plan that will
lay the foundation for restoring Alberta’s reputation in the fight for our oil
and gas sector.
The strategic plan will be completed and presented to government early
this fall.
Reporting the truth about the energy industry was at the centre of
Claudia’s distinguished career. She is uniquely qualified to help us take
action. I look forward to receiving her insights and benefiting from her years
of experience.
This plan will reset the record and loudly tell the world ‘Alberta is
back’ – and respond, in real time, to the misinformation being spread about
the industry.
How will we do this? By challenging.
One word at a time, one fact at a time, and one truth at a time.
The
lies end now!
