If ultra-wealthy industry front groups begging money from governments like #PathwaysNetZero want a shred of credibility they need to answer whether they agree with #Scotiabank (no innocents themselves on all this) or not. Every Albertan deserves an answer.

Scotiabank says royalty credits for well cleanup would damage industry’s reputation
CALGARY - Scotiabank is warning that the Alberta government’s plan to give oil companies a royalty credit for cleaning up their old wells could damage the reputation of Canada’s oil and gas industry.Toronto Star
Here's the prime #OrphanOilwell problem as I understand it: #BigOil (which has all the $ in the world) "sells off" spent oilwells to small companies going bankrupt & who could *never* afford cleanup in the first place. This from an industry claiming to produce #EthicalOil.
It's the same bunch of crooks that'd like us to trust them on #CCS and think Canada should give them billions. Just ask the enormous liars at
#PathwaysNetZero.

Obviously it should go without saying that any #BigOil company that sold their #OrphanWells to companies all knew couldn't pay for the cleanup should not only not get one cent of this 20 billion but no federal #CCS $ either. Same with oil companies that took #CERB then turned around and offered #ShareBuyBacks to investors. Fool me once...

Only one *MAKING* money is Galen Weston... not the farmers that raise the animals, plant/grow/harvest the crops, not the people transporting the animals, or the crops... just Galen Weston.

The CAQ would want a woman removed for talking about issues pertaining to, you know, women?
