Back to EpisodesAlberta, Canada Strikes Deal for Faster Project Approvals
Description
Alberta and the federal government reach a deal, granting Alberta more control over environmental reviews for major projects. This agreement aims to expedite approvals and construction, particularly for pipelines and power grids. It builds on a previous memorandum, allowing Alberta to lead assessments for projects under its jurisdiction and streamlining processes for federally regulated projects. The deal is seen as a step towards more efficient reviews and job creation, with similar pacts already in place with other provinces. Public input is sought until March 27th, and discussions on methane cuts and carbon pricing continue, targeting a deal by April 1st.
