3 Alberta premiers weigh in on using oil as leverage against Trump
About this episode
Canada has laid out its plan for dollar-for-dollar retaliation against the latest 50 per cent tariffs imposed by the U.S. Some leaders say that doesn't go far enough, suggesting an energy export tax should be on the table. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says this escalation would leave Canada 'worse off.' Plus, former Alberta premiers Rachel Notley and Jason Kenney join forces to deliver a message in defence of Canada. 'If you don’t want Alberta to become a resource colony for Washington, get out and vote,' says Kenney.
