Free market, my a**

Natural gas prices too low for producers to pay their taxes and cleanup fees?

No problem, says Alberta. Let's use tax money to bail out the producers. Let's use Albertans' money to buy out these no longer profitable wells. Let's build AI data centers close to natural gas sources so we can drive up prices.

Who cares about everyday Albertans having to pay more to heat their homes.

It's good for the eCoNoMy. 🤡

Don't like it? Neither do I. Tell your MLA about this ridiculous plan called the Mature Asset Strategy and tell them to vote NO. Here's one place you can do that cleanupyourmess.ca

"It's impossible to represent the interests of a partisan government, an independent regulator, private companies & all this consulting work and then supposed to represent the public in creating the #MatureAssetStrategy all at the same time to deal with this issue. OF COURSE we got a flawed product."

"While #DavidYaeger designed the #MatureAssetStrategy he was a consultant for #OilAndGas, advertising for new business. His tagline is, 'helping Oil & Gas companies achieve success.' He was paid with public dollars for this & has all these different, competing interests. Clear #ConflictOfInterest"

"We looked into how the #MatureAssetStrategy was created. It led by #DavidYeager who was paid $292,000 with public funds through 2 sole source contracts so no one else could bid for the job & he developed it through closed door discussions mostly just with oil and gas companies."

"I've reported sour gas presence right next to a major freeway time & time again. Inspectors come out, shut it down & they're back in business the next day, nothing solved. The author of the #MatureAssetStrategy himself described all this as a stinking, steaming pile of sh*t. On that we agree."
