Oil, gas companies told to cut emissions by one-third under planned cap

Summary

77% Informative

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the oil and gas industry has done less than most other sectors to reduce emissions.

The regulations could further strain relations between Ottawa and the Alberta government.

The government is adamant that the regulations can be achieved with existing technology, without cutting production.

Alberta recently launched a $7-million advertising campaign to “scrap the cap”.

The regulations won’t be finalized for months and it’s possible that the next federal election will take place before they are actually in force.

For Guilbeault , getting them out the door in a battle against climate change that he says has become so politically charged even progressives are wobbling, feels like something to celebrate.
