Alberta premier defends $4.8-million office budget increase
73% Informative
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith defends a nearly 23 per cent increase to her office budget.
She says it's coming at the expense of the Energy Ministry as her office assumes some formal and financial responsibility for promoting the province’s oil and gas industry.
Smith said the roughly $4.8-million increase will complete the process of folding the controversial Canadian Energy Centre into government.
The centre, also referred to as the “energy war room,” was created in 2019 by former United Conservative premier Jason Kenney .
