@amanpour Iran is using the old but reliable delay-delay-delay tactic. These delays hurt USA much more than Iran and thus they will continue to stall for time.
Alberta NDP MLA Marlin Schmidt says despite MAGA Energy owing $200K in unpaid municipal taxes, the company was granted 170 well leases.
AER refused to show MLAs their reasons for granting the licences.
No documentation was provided.

According to AI, pursuant to Alberta government orders, taxpayers have laid out $412,000+ to landowners on behalf of MAGA Energy Ltd., without shutting its operations down. That’s on top of being delinquent on over $1 million municipal taxes.
How does that sit with Albertans ?
@mark_dorin Sorry. Is there any documentation, such as Orphan Well Association minutes, that show the AER support, or lack of support for increased funding to meet reclamation liabilities. Info like this to publicly show AER position.
@biancoresearch@jonathan13601 @NoMaskOnMe Withdrawal would mean reorganization of supply chains and associated financial links. Afghanistan and Vietnam tell the tail of failure to accept the hard truth leaving is the best idea.
@leadlagreport It is possible. However the need for Eurodollar for oil, and recent decline in treasuries, may offset each other. Melt up can occur but not if American assets have been liquidated thus eliminating the ability to buy yen.
Let’s count the ways we are subsidizing a broke Alberta conventional oil industry.
1. Don’t have to pay municipal tax.
2. Citizens pay landowners for them.
3. C-Star royalty holiday (free oil) until well drilling and fracking costs recovered…

@politicalham Not quite as bad but the fact the province did not use all the money, provided by the federal government, dedicated to well site reclamation is a shameful missed opportunity.
@mcuban The established foot print of existing dwellings will affect future dwellings. If these new dwellings receive the support of the community then there is hope. The negative response to infill housing suggests the odds are against this.
