Statement on Ottawa  walking away from its  unachievable and unattainable  goal of a net-zero electricity grid  by 2035:
After years of watching the  federal government mislead Canadians about the feasibility of achieving a net-zero  electricity grid by 2030, we are  pleased to see Ottawa finally  acknowledge that the  Alberta government's plan to achieve a  carbon-neutral electricity grid by 2050 is a more responsible, affordable and realistic  goal.
That said, the  federal government's comprehensive electricity regulations remain  completely unconstitutional  because they seek to regulate  within an area of  exclusive provincial jurisdiction. They also require generators to meet unreasonable and unattainable interim targets  set by the federal government starting in  2035, which will still make electricity unaffordable for Canadian  households.
Therefore, Alberta will be preparing an immediate  legal challenge  to this electricity regulation, which it fully  expects to  win.

We propose a  faster and  less expensive alternative solution  that involves the  federal government completely abandoning any attempt to regulate or otherwise interfere with Alberta's governance  of our provincial  energy grid.
