Jason Kenney

The UCP government’s new budget suggests Albertans must accept services that are average by Canadian standards. Will they stand for it?

He may be a true believer in the conservative cause, but Kenney has evolved into a petro-premier first and foremost

Max Fawcett: Alberta’s energy sector should highlight the weaknesses in other market-oriented oil and gas regions like Texas, where gas flaring and water management are more lax

The days of rubber stamping projects are gone. Enter the days of having no idea what the conditions for approval even are.

Philippe J. Fournier: A new poll shows the UCP has maintained support after 10 months in power, with an 8-point lead over the NDP

Scott Gilmore: Every major player and investor understands the days of oil are numbered. Politicians are the only ones too shameless to say it out loud.

Jen Gerson: Nothing demonstrates the parochialism and myopia of the people running Alberta Inc. more than their support for the Canadian Energy Centre

The project is a long shot to get built, while others are already approved. How did it become a flashpoint in the climate-change battle?

Max Fawcett: 10 years ago, Alberta needed geologists and petroleum engineers. Now they’re unemployed. See what happens when post-secondary funding is predicated on a boom-and-bust economy?

Who will lead the Conservative Party now: The ’brilliant’ Rona Ambrose? The critic Peter MacKay? Jason Kenney!? The race is on.
