No MOU, No CUSMA, No Problem — If You're Not From Alberta

The April 1st deadline on the Alberta-Ottawa MOU came and went and Ottawa delivered nothing. No announcement, no framework, no signal that the federal government is taking Alberta's concerns seriously. This week Erika is joined by Gitane De Silva, former Deputy Minister of Alberta's International and Intergovernmental Relations, former CEO of the Canadian Energy Regulator, and Founder and President of GDStrategic, to break down what that missed deadline actually means for the relationship between this province and Ottawa. They dig into what federal ministers making the rounds in Calgary are really trying to accomplish, whether any of it moves the needle, and what a trade war layered on top of rising instability in Iran means for Alberta energy producers and agricultural communities that are already navigating an incredibly uncertain environment.
