Description
This submission outlines Alberta's concerns regarding the proposed federal Oil and Gas Sector Greenhouse Gas Emissions Cap Regulations. It details Alberta's objections to the draft regulations based on a number of grounds. The technical submission does not alter Alberta's position that the proposed emissions cap is unconstitutional. As set out in Section 92A of the Constitution Act, 1867, Alberta has exclusive jurisdiction to manage the rate of non-renewable natural resources production and operational aspects of their development in the province.
