EDMONTON — Alberta politicians have passed a motion to back Premier Rachel Notley’s battle for the Trans Mountain oil pipeline, but division remains on how to carry the fight. The United Conservatives, Alberta Party, and the Alberta Liberals joined with Notley’s NDP to back the government motion in a vote Tuesday. The final tally was 70-0, with Notley and United Conservative Opposition Leader Jason Kenney in the chamber for the vote. But United Conservative Leader Jason Kenney told the house Notley waited too long and has not done enough to force B.C. But government house leader Brian Mason said the government has been carefully leading the fight, and said it’s easy for those on the opposition benches to issue broad statements and threats.
