EDMONTON — The Crown has withdrawn a charge against a man who was accused of phoning the legislature office of Alberta Environment Minister Shannon Phillips and making a death threat over the province’s carbon tax. Court records show the Crown withdrew the charge on Feb. 13. Enright said the charge was withdrawn after the Crown’s main witness and police failed to come to court. “I said, ‘No way,’ because I didn’t do what they said I did.”Phillips is not named in the charge document. I would never, never, ever threaten anybody.”Enright said the months between when he was charged and when the case was withdrawn were tough on his family.
