Running out the clock on the federal oil and gas emissions cap: SK energy minister
Late in the year, just in time for the next COP (Conference Of the Parties) event, the federal Liberal government released its planned oil and gas emissions cap details on Nov. 4. The Saskatchewan government reacted negatively to this plan, calling it a cap on production. And it looks like the newly re-elected Sask Party government plans on running out the clock in this ongoing fight with the federal government, expecting an upcoming election within the next year will result in the policy being quashed.
