Show Notes

W. Brett Wilson is one of Canada's most recognizable entrepreneurs. In our feature interview presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West (3:30), the former Dragons Den star responds to "the noise" from environmental groups opposing coal mining in Alberta and accusations he left landowners on the hook for orphan wells. We wrap with Brett's one word answer on how he'll be voting on Alberta separation.
