Bill C-235 Prairie

The Alberta Enterprise Group (AEG) Response to the Passing of Bill C-235

In the autumn of 2022, on your behalf, AEG opposed federal bill C-235 "An Act respecting the building of a green economy in the Prairies". AEG stood up for Alberta's businesses by arguing that not only was the bill undermining areas of provincial jurisdiction but also that it was likely the bill would add to rather than alleviate the regulatory burden or costs of compliance of the numerous federal green regulations and programmes already being implemented in the Prairies.
