The governments of Alberta and Saskatchewan, both of which oppose the Canadian government’s assertive policies on climate change, have formed a bilateral agreement to collaborate on environmental issues.
“The subjects being discussed range from fish and wildlife management to ways in which the two provinces can work together to negotiate a fairer deal with Ottawa on environmental issues,” they said in a press release.
The statement noted that both provinces have challenged the federal government’s carbon tax in court (OGJ Online, Oct. 5, 2016).
