Smith Warns Against Energy Retaliation | Edmonton News
Description
Alberta’s Premier Danielle Smith warns that using Canada’s oil and gas exports as leverage against the U.S. would backfire, driving up energy prices at home and sparking retaliatory tariffs that would hit Ontario and Quebec hardest. While some politicians suggest energy retaliation, Smith pushes for diplomacy instead, stressing the deep economic ties between the two nations — 80% of Canadian oil flows south, and eastern Canada relies on U.S. supplies. She condemns the U.S. for breaking trust after years of alliance, calling economic warfare unacceptable and urging a patient, measured response to protect Canada’s economy.
