Pretty much everything the UCP has ever done has been strictly to prop up o&g.

Pause on renewable power generation, despite AB having tons of sun and wind? Tf? Nobody is asking you to pay for it, simply approve the projects! AB was responsible for 92% of renewable growth in Canada in 2023. It's there, it makes sense.

Inviting AI data centers? The notoriously power hungry ones? When you've kneecapped renewable gen growth?

Trying to self manage the AB pension fund? Gee I wonder what industries the government would target for investment w/ that fund. Probably strictly the ones with the highest rates of return for the investors... Or... Maybe you'd cherry-pick investments with a worse long-term return to prop a specific industry. Who knows.
