Rebel News spoke with a number of cabinet ministers from Alberta’s United Conservative Party at their annual general meeting.

While hot-button social issues like parental rights, tackling crime, and addiction were front of mind for many of the 3600+ in attendance at this year’s United Conservative Party annual general meeting, the Alberta government’s pushback against the overreaching federal government’s carbon tax was undoubtedly one of the biggest stories leading up to the convention.

Alberta’s Minister of Environment and Protected Areas Rebecca Schulz — who has endeared herself to many Albertans as a thorn in the side of Liberal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault — joined us to discuss how the Liberals’ climate plan, or lack thereof, and their special carbon tax carve outs for parts of the country where they are trying to secure votes prove that the federal Liberals’ environmentalism has more to do with political posturing than protecting the planet.
