Can Alberta really 'turn off the taps' to B.C.? Here's what we know about Jason Kenney's plan


If you’d harboured fantasies of watching Kenney take a novelty-sized crescent wrench to pipelines running from Alberta, that’s unlikely to happen. Well, what Bill 12 does is it gives the provincial government power to impose licences on companies exporting petroleum products. So, basically, the UCP would pass Bill 12 and then they would be able to refuse permission to send oil and gas to B.C. Wait, if it’s an NDP bill, why is Kenney getting the credit? First, Bill 12 relies on Section 92A(2) of the constitution.
