Show Notes
The Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act. Assessment: Our guest says Alberta's most successful premiers have directly challenged federal government initiatives and won. Premier Peter Lougheed took on the National Energy Program, successfully launching a constitutional challenge of the natural gas export tax and the tax was removed. Lougheed also oversaw section 92A of the Canadian Constitution which confirms provincial jurisdiction over the development of Crown lands and resources.
Guest: Ted Morton. Former Alberta Finance Minister and Minister of Energy. Political science Professor Emeritus, University of Calgary.
