Danielle Smith uninvited from appearance before House of Commons environment committee

According to a post from Alberta Premier Danielle Smith on Thursday afternoon, her invitation to speak to the House standing committee on environment and sustainable development was rescinded.

"Today, they sent a letter rejecting my attendance. That was the fastest response we’ve ever received from the feds - apparently, they don’t want me to testify about electricity grid reliability or our pursuit of carbon neutrality by 2050 after all…wonder why?" Smith wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

The Alberta government recently launched a campaign, TellTheFeds.ca, which includes a petition and billboard truck, directing Albertans to tell the federal government to back off its net-zero policies that are killing Alberta jobs, putting the electricity grid at risk and takes money out of the pockets of Albertans.

Smith accepted a previous invitation to the Commons environment committee on behalf of the Alberta government. However, the committee membership may have expected Smith to send a minister or deputy minister, rather than appear herself.
