CALGARY, Alta. — Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre delivered a keynote address outlining economic proposals to eliminate regulatory hurdles and repeal industrial carbon taxes on natural resource producers.
Unlocking Canadian Energy
Speaking to energy sector workers in Calgary, Poilievre argued that expediting project approvals would restore investment confidence and create tens of thousands of high-wage jobs.
"Canada possesses the natural wealth to power the world," Poilievre declared. "Our plan cuts red tape, approves major export infrastructure, and brings powerful paycheques home to Canadian families."
