Danielle Smith calls fed's clean energy regulations "utterly out of step with reality" | FULL

- Alberta Premier Danielle Smith defended her government's six-month moratorium on renewable energy projects, while also calling Ottawa’s proposed clean energy plan "disappointing" during a press conference on Monday.
“[The regulations] are unconstitutional, irresponsible, and utterly out of step with reality. If they become the law of the land, these regulations would crush Albertans finances and they would also cause dramatic increases in electricity bills for families and businesses across Canada.” Smith said.
Smith would go on to say that her government wasn’t closing the door on cooperation with the federal government but that her government believes it could be done by 2050, not by 2035.
Smith was also pressured by reporters on the government’s decision to pause renewable energy projects in the province for six-months.
“We have put a six month pause to figure out whether or not we can address these issues of reliability and affordability and siting and reclamation.”

Thank You Danielle Smith for being a common sense Leader in a time of utter chaos from the Feds !
Bring costs of living under control…
Can’t do it wit the current Liberal and NDP coalition. We need an a election yesterday. Please people get rid of Trudeau.
I sure am glad I voted for a premier that’s so far lived up to her campaign platform. Good job girl, keep it up👍
😂😂😂
You have to hand it to her, she’s really good
Ms. Danielle Smith... I would most sincerely, with the utmost ADMIRATION tell you, YOU NAILED IT PERFECTLY AND SPOT ON.
Man, I wish so bad you could come to Southern California and tell Gavin Newsom EXACTLY, as you have done there.
I never heard of you or seen you before, but I wish we had someone like yourself over here (REASONABLE AND DISPLAYS COMMON SENSE)... someone who doesnt cave and stands strong with facts and not an idealogy with unrealistic expectations.
But at the end of the day... it is about mobility and free will or government control by energy.
Thank you so very much,
Di
@@alisdairarchibald2819 the privatization here in the US is only done bcuz they do NOT require PG&E or hold accountable these companies to be responsible for the product they sell to us... so Gavin Newsom wants it to be customer OWNED... SO THEN THEY WILL MAKE US PAY FOR WHAT YHEY COULDNT OR WOULDNT MAKE PG&E PAY, I DONT KNOW IF ITS LIKE THAT IN CANADA.
😂😂😂
@@DianeDrescher why do you laugh... I havent looked up her policies but here in Southern California they've lost their minds thinking we'll only run on fossil fuel thst not green plus they dont even want you own a car... pretty much 2030 -2035 and all tbe pther wacky ideas.
@@alisdairarchibald2819 Sorry so long.
Well, do you mean privatization of the utility company for example here PG&E is a private company, which our government was been horrible in holding them accountable for the destruction and deaths that company has caused, so instead of holding them accountable, our California Gov Gavin Newsom wants to make PG&E customer owned by the taxpayers so he can make us accountable for what they would not hold PG&E accountable for.
Maui fire... same thing, utility lacj of maintenance and NEGLECT dispite words of warnings.
If a company sells a product they must be accountable for maintenance as well as product.
Our utilities and economy are sky rocketing all by design... they want all our money in order to pay for the transition from Fossil Fuel to EV... JUST like COVID... nothing this GASLIGHTING Democrat Leadership is doing is for the Well-Being or Best Interest for our environment or "We The People" it is for totally control of how we live and even what we eat AND this new global order fall inline BULLPUCKY.
So, Im not sure how it works over there, but why I liked Dani is because people, I assume higher ranking men were telling her to hurry up and meet these environmental goals or the sky is gonna fall... and she put the skids on and said 2060 is more reasonable... here they want to switched to EV 2030 - 2035... its NOT only undoable, but asinine especially when our "Renewables" energy is so frig'in dirty, dirtier than fossil fuels in the whole picture.
EV is full of humanity issues in the supply material among other dangerous "strategies"... people have gone mad with power and not a lick of common sense... for goodness sakes half the country cant define a woman.
Anyway... I truly dont know how it is over, but I dont care for your president either... hes on the same agenda as our GASLIGHTING Democrat Leadership is.
But I am a bit curious if its the same there, as here.
Thanks
That was excellent Danielle. ThankYou for all your hard work in standing up for Alberta against these woke attacks against our province.
You hit it right on anyone that hasn't earned a dollar on his own has no idea how to pay for these changes.
Sounds like a common sense approach. Very impressed with Danielle Smith. Makes me want to come to Alberta. You go girl.
Both her and Pierre will have this country 180'd quicker than anyone else. Quebec will not be happy once they get cut off the government tit. As well, no more corporate welfare for their strategically placed plants and head offices
the rest of the country is sick of bending over to pick up the soap for quebec.
Hey Emma (Globe and Mail) (23:45) … you realize when a reporter is talking over the Premier, while she’s answering questions, the credibility of your news organization evaporates.
G&M resources would be better deployed reporting on the tragic death of Lil Tay.
GO GO DANIELLE YOU NAILED IT . I SUPPORT ALBERTA .
I voted for Smith and it was the RIGHT choice.
wow so refreshing to hear a politician actually ANSWER the question!!!!! bravo from Ontario!
Don't shoot the messenger. The data is out there if you look for it. Wind farms have been shown to increase air temperatures in areas where they exist by 0.7C. They also prevent rain clouds from forming as wind farms affect the boundary air layers. This means that the air does not cool at night, dew does not form on the ground, this evaporates from daytime heat forming clouds that then should fall as rain. This is studies done by NASA, Harvard University and others. People think that green energy, like wind farms is good for the environment, but it is further from the truth. Germany has realized that green energy is not going to be enough and are now switching on 20 coal power stations. They came to Trudeau for our Natural gas, Trudeau so no business case for it. This was Germanies only option left open to them after the Feds said no.
Wind farms negate the use of farmland, destroy wildlife, and while the people pushing this idiotic nightmare say they can be re-cycled, the truth is, they cant....No windfarm on earth has been re-cycled ever at any time........They get drug off into the woods to rot, or are buried......Wind and solar make up for less than 00.1% of electrical energy world-wide, and this statistic alone makes them a ludicrous abomination that should be NOWHERE on earth.
Nah..wasn’t their only option. They signed a deal with Qatar. Could’ve been our deal, but our clown prince of a PM screwed it up.
@@alisdairarchibald2819 completely agree.
Your twenty bucks is waiting for you at UCP central. Gotta love the Orwellian double-think.
The Alberta government is using data from the power companies to base a legal strategy of litigation to rationalize status quo’s of big oil , and power. It is resistance of an economic system controlling litigation and political power.
She is using big oils 2050 date to delay. We don’t have until 2050. The titanic is sinking.
@@Greenspaceserviceschicken little speaks
Finally someone in power with some common sense!
Agreed
LOL.... maybe once your house is destroyed & u lose everything u will understand what scientists have been talking about for 30 years.
@JEdwarrd yes every decade they tell us how we are all doomed in 10 years we a new fear tactic since the 1920s
@@JEdwarrdLol. And yet the Federal Government in power whom has justification on environmental policies throughout Canada has fared how well the last 8 years? 0 for 8 which include 2 years in lockdown. In fact, one can argue it has gotten worse under them. So, what is your point?
@@JEdwarrd
Yes the sky is falling.
So very happy to have Danielle Smith as our Premier.
AMEN!!
You should be! We live in BC 🤥
You are extremely fortunate, make sure you stand behind her!
I have lots of family in BC who are very happy with the government there, perhaps you are the problem.@@dianeelliott9620
Data proves - forest fires and burn acreage are in decline. Droughts are all within historical norms. Hurricanes are not getting worse or more frequent. Flooding is caused by the bullseye effect. Sea level is rising at 3.4mm per year, imperceptible without scientific instruments and there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop this except for adaptation. The temps have warmed by around 1C over the last 200 years. This has proven to be mostly benign, easily managed and a net benefit for humanity.
forest fires in decline????
Natural occuring ones, not the ones set by man....................@@lol-wj4hx
Love you for doing the right things and being realistic about how to get it done in all areas
It is about time that we get people in Ottawa that know what common sense is instead allowing environmental activists, who have no real world experience, continue to pass ridiculous legislation in government
Why don't u advocate to clean up the abandoned, leaky wells ALL OVER ALBERTA?
@@JEdwarrdthat’s already happening. But thanks for your concern.
Trying to paint your perceived enemies as cartoons never works out well…
@@RedTeamBlueTeam That's why Imperial oil dumped their poisonous waste into water tables..... RIGHT... THEN COVERED IT UP FOR 9 MONTHS.. How many CEO's do u blow?
The media should be embarrassed. Who are these children addressing an adult questions in such an unprofessional manor. They are so awful it’s actually funny. What dose it take to get press credentials? These are not serious people how are they getting paid to do this? Great job smith in a very hostile room. I learned a lot about the issue and anyone with a functioning brain who doesn’t want to freeze to death in the winter appreciates your prudent approach.
Agree with your description of these media entertainers. It was great to hear her speak on talk radio yesterday interviewed by a real journalist. She is amazing and described very well why this is an issue designed to split Canada in half.
You can really see how the media is trying to follow the trudeau agenda!
we ain't gonna take we ain't gonna take it anymore
Who is we?
its over your head i guess@@larrymccue8097

People that are awake and aware.
@@AstroBear11 No the exact opposite of the sleep walking woke.
Germany tried to “ go green” years ago .They had to massively increase taxes to pay for their “ subsidies “ to the green companies for their infrastructure construction and they recently had to open up their coal mines again because there wasn’t enough “green power” available.
Yup, it was a complete failure and now Trudeau wants Canada to do the same except with a far colder climate. People are going to die.
Who said anything about subsidies and do you have any idea of the billions and billions of dollars that the oil industry has received in subsidies. Don't be such a hypocrite.
They were relying on LNG from Russia that’s why and we could have supplied it if we had competent government
Lil “STEVEY “ and his lil boss Crusty WEF’er GOt ‘a GO NOW! PERIOD!
I wonder how "green" everything would be if the taxpayers stopped paying for it?
The average lifespan of a wind turbine is 15-25 years.
Premier Smith answered more questions in a direct manner than happens in a dozen federal question periods!
She answers hard questions from hostile media very well, Trudeau answers softball questions from friendly media with talking points and word salad gibberish.
Reaching net zero is a fairy tale.
@@AstroBear11
Oh please spare us .
Bravo Danielle!
The whole ability to intentionally do black outs and inflate pricing is amazing
What a terrible question by that reporter with regards to what her thoughts are on the wild fires taking place throughout the world......and not to talk about the government's plan on the environment. Crazy. Just crazy. And as for the reporter at the end interuping the premiere without allowing her to finish her response? Wow. Just wow. Media. DO YOUR JOB. Report the stories and NOT your own narrative
What else would you expect from a CBC reporter?….actual journalism?
Not their narrative but the wefs narrative.
The left media believes that the more solar panels you have the less forest fires you have. How can journalists be so dense these days?
Refreshing to hear actual questions actually answered.
The hyperbolic approach does no one any service.
Anna interrupted consistently,
was consistently rude and then tried to disseminate her view of the state of affairs instead of allowing us to hear the Alberta Premier address the questions.
Daniel Smith is fantastic
😂😂😂
@@DianeDrescher only a NDP SB .. would say that.
Solar and wind power generation companies should be held accountable for their messes the way other industries are and be prepared for the same economic shocks as everyone else.
Love Smith, she is a class act politician!
@alisdairarchibald2819 lol, time to wake up. ⏰️. Freeland just gave a speech asking if democracy is working. She wants us to leave democracy for something more like her grandfather's style of government. No thanks. SMITH IS A PROTECTOR OF CANADIAN DEMOCRATIC VALUES. and she is doing exactly what I voted for her to do. ❤️ Smith!
As long as oil makes money, forget it..... End of....
Thank you Danielle
Base load power is a must, I live in Ontario and worked on Hydro-electric projects and Nucular building electrical control panels
It takes that turbine 10 years to produce the power that was used to manufacture it
As a Boomer, I’m all for status quo to get me to the finished line. I’m ok with my grand kids dealing with the heat. 🎉
It's not dealing with the heat it's dying because of the heat aren't you a nice grandfather. "Sure my generations screwed up and you'll die because of climate change but too bad."
@@t.dmytryshyn2615going forward by the target set can cause a lot of suffering and death too. No one talks about the positives of what oil and gas has brought us. Heating homes, getting to work, running hospitals in black and brown outs because we are dumping "evil" oil and gas. People will fall into poverty without affordable, reliable energy. This circumstance is inhumane and will cause suffering and death. There is no romantic rainbows and the energy will just be reliable and affordable instantly with renewables. All you have to do is look at the cautionary tale of Germany. They did it and they have walked it back majorly. I personally have done my research and from what I have learned I would pick natural gas and a slow transition towards hydrogen for cars over the bull crap policies put forward that are just fads that will cost the locals who live near the projects and all tax payers. Natural gas is way less harmful than any of the other so called renewables andbits already established and is affordable and it doesn't take up massive amounts of land to make happen. Its regulations are already stringent and in place. Please do your homework.
what selfishness 😂
Who in their right mind would have voted for Notley
It's impressive how Danielle keeps her cool under the barrage of the Unifor Liberal Media asking the same question over and over. They seem incapable of understanding English. I love the way she basically told The Toronto Star guy to mind his own business.
is it "Common Sense tho? "
@@alisdairarchibald2819
i think YOU might be surprised at how many UTILITIES and facilities for GENERATION and TRANSMISSION have already been PRIVATIZED friend, If YOU knew how MARKETING BOARDS for POWER were organized, YOU would be shocked.
I am not sure if Canada even has one trillion dollars in the bank.
70billion mandatory contributions to CPP lost also 30billion from existing public funds in CPP. This requires a full unrestricted public inquiry and mandatory criminal investigation along with full refund ×2 for accountability and and damages for ignoring public authority
tell Ottawa that they get no Alberta oil money while we are investing in green energy
Danielle Smith rocks. The media sucks. The bias is sooooooooooo extreme. You hear it in the naive, cry baby questions. Questions coming from individuals with clear political bias and no real knowledge of the sciences and engineering surrounding the topics in question. Pathetic.
Continued attack upon provincial jurisdiction will require separation and inclusion of agreed jurisdictions
you bet,we ve already had a warning for us to not use power to save us from a rolling blackout,
No research or studies no mandated policy.
She had two ladies questioning her pause on renewables. I have watched a 1/4 quarter of land covered with solar panels and the land was good soil for growing crops. Why put this on good land.
Well done Mrs Premier, in the face of a hostile Trudeau funded media.
I never thought I would ever have hope in a Conservative leader, so far Danielle has proved me wrong.
Luv this woman .my god an actual leader with strength and brains. Prime minister material 🇨🇦
Just ban imported oil
And start exporting liquid natural gas. Only stupid people think that burning coal is better for the environment!
Alberta exports Bitumen Tar Sands to the USA, and then buys the refined product back, as in gasoline for example. Informed much? 😅
For someone so 'WELL INFORMED" you may want to know, tar is a man-made substance, ergo the correct terminology is "OIL SAND"@@mrnobody3161
I mostly agree with Premier Smith she is willing to move ahead with change but it won't be without forethought. As well she knows budgets won't balance themselves. Plus she knows putting faith in the federal Liberal government is not conducive with moving forward at least not wear economy needs to be
Danielle Smith literally Knows NOTHING.
Danielle Smith for prime minister
This Premier is riveting to listen to... I'm tempted to move back to Alberta.
😂😂😂
She's right. Danielle is the best thing for Alberta since Klein.
😂😂😂
This Premier cannot and will not be "railroaded. " she knows how to intelligently articulate her position on every question and scheme raised by our Federal Liberal Government . Well spoken Premier Smith.
😂😂😂
So proud to listen to Danielle Smith. A very articulate, tough, intelligent leader. Thank you for opening our eyes, that the narcissist in Ottawa wants shut.
Stop your a. Burden to alberta I do not AGREE WITH

Still want to play with the public authority entrusted to the National Socialist Party of Canada lead by Justin Trudeau
Good job Alberta for not putting up with craziness!!
Love this common sense woman, and SO wish I lived in Alberta
We’re stuck with NDP in BC and so common sense and reality don’t exist with BC politicians

EPCOR in Edmonton, built a 17 acre, solar panel farm, it will only supply, intermittent power to 60 homes. 17 ACRES/60 homes. At that rate, it's a good thing, we have lots of land in ALBERTA
Smith knows her place and where Alberta should be. Its not about Trudeau and the feds.👍
Try living in BC or Ontario! You just don't know when you have it good. Or you rather have the NDP back? Have you paid $2.00 for a litre of gas?
@@alisdairarchibald2819
waiting for your reply?
Go Danielle go ❤️
Does the tyrant Trudeau realize in his tiny mind just how miserable he and Jagmeet are making the lives of Canadians. This country has little hope and a bleak future.
Irma, instead of bulldozing Danielle Smith with your repetitive questions about transmission lines that have been paused until further notice. Danielle has competently shown she's no pushover. Step aside, let her do her job.
You can have her. I'll pay the shipping.
hahah yeah his so coco that when was asked for solution he came up with one the next day!
this guys never gave 1 solutions to the problems we have!
Government at all levels needs to butt out of the private sector - if "green" energy is worthwile then the private sectro will built it and the consumer will pay for it. If not we will keep using the most efficient and least expensive options.
@@alisdairarchibald2819 like PG&E HORRIBLE YHEY ARE.
The irony is the oil industry would not be financially viable without governments involved and their money.
I’m simply amazed out how out of step the current federal government is with western Canada. Alberta will leave confederation with this ridiculous government. If you support this absolutely ridiculous government you will suffer the consequences that would involve the largest per person supplier of taxes and revenue to Canada. If you support this current liberal government you also support the end of the federal pension plan which is mostly funded by Alberta. Finally I’ll end in saying that after eight years of forced eastern mandated hell that we people in Alberta don’t care anymore. Either get your act together or don’t, we in Alberta will decide for you.
Why are these reporters so fing rude???EMma????
Emma you sound like a child 26:23
From 1:42 min in transcript is spot on!
When did that slip in there ?
Take a look at your power and gas bill in Alberta today. We need a base amount of gas to fulfill electrical needs here because we don't have the luxury of water such as hydro Ontario, Quebec, BC, Labrador and Newfoundland. Forcing our hand in a short 10 year time frame will massively increase what we are presently paying today and, we all know that the carbon tax will increase yet again but, why isn't this money being directed toward the electrical load requirements that the Liberals think we need?
Regulators and corporations,laughable
I LUV HER... Think of how things would be if Rachel won.We would be answering to the federal NDP/Liberal anti- AB agenda
Truth will set us free ability to advance the human condition for all. Government action using public authority against public interest voids all public authority and liability. Officials responsible held personally liable and criminally investigated with prejudice for fraud against entrusted public authority and interest liability and security
She’s ONE fabulous and super smart, honest Canadian Premier!! God Bless this lady who has integrity like very few have these days!!! 🙏
2050?? Oh boy!
All i hear is "the cigarette company says that they dont cause cancer, why would they lie? You cant smoke if youre dead". Smith barely has time to wipe her mouth after meeting with suncor and husky
wow look at all these liberal reporters good job
what about the thousands of people who lost their job when the NDP was in power? the media didn't complain about that to Notley.
Fight Back
Trudeau needs to step down or be removed from power
Smart and practical.
😂😂😂
Hope she fixes this soon cause my bill is over 800$ and barley used my power and getting cut off soon too
Wind power is not working also solar power has been trying hard to come to market it might be good in the future generations not now I think nuclear power is best on smaller scale
Funnily enough, at about the 21-minute mark, Danielle speaks of not listening to politicians on the topic of powergrid works, yet she is expecting people to listen to her, a politician on how our power grid works? Or is it that she would have all of the gullible people believed that she is the one and only politician who listens to experts?
Danielle. ❤ 🎉
