Peter Lougheed: “Coal has a much more serious environmental problems. …Most of it is located in some of the beautiful parts of our province and would affect, for example, our potential for recreation and tourism …it can affect agriculture areas.” #ableg #abpoli

Unfortunately, for Alberta, we are saddled with @ABDanielleSmith who doesn’t care about any of those things.

The UCP is morally bankrupt and doesn’t care about the environment or poisoning the water, effecting animals, crops and people. They are ruining this province.

Well I mean Danielle Smith did say that Rachel Notley and her NDP were Lougheed's successors. Says plenty about how we ended up mining coal again.

Highlighting different surfaces and textures can emphasize elements of a structure or landscape. With a variety of fixtures from flood lights to wall washes, it is easy to create visually stunning outdoor experiences. Browse our huge variety of outdoor lighting.

If Lougheed and UCP were contemporaneous - Smith's media team would launch a propaganda war calling him a communist. Notley is probably the politician who came closest to matching Lougheed's vision & integrity.

COAL, THE NEW WHALE BLUBBER 💁♂️

And then Lougheed wrote the 1976 Coal Development Plan. Because the alternative is expropriation of freehold coal and that would cost billions and massively damage any future investment in anything. Lougheed was wiser than any dipper.

Of course, he was absolutely wrong about oil and gas extraction not having serious environmental costs. They were just dumped on different people: Indigenous people.

He ain't going to have a Daniel smith provincial park

@curmudgeonAB2 Present day numbnuts aka UCP supporters would call him 'a commie'

@MargTokar Danielle Smith doesn't care.
