Alberta challenges Ottawa's clean electricity rules, claiming they harm its natural gas industry.

Alberta's government is challenging the legality of Ottawa's clean electricity regulations, which aim to decarbonize Canada's electricity by 2050. Premier Danielle Smith argues the regulations will harm Alberta's natural gas-powered grid, claiming Ottawa is overstepping its authority. Justice Minister Mickey Amery has referred the case to the Alberta Court of Appeal, but no timeline for a decision has been set.
