Alberta premier responds to “oil is dead” remarks by May, Blanchet

During Alberta's Thursday COVID-19 briefing, Premier Jason Kenney responded to Green Party MP Elizabeth May and Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet’s comments on the oil industry, which May called “dead” on Wednesday.

With the price of oil plummeting during the coronavirus pandemic, Kenney’s message to the politicians was, “Please stop kicking us while we’re down,” and labelled the remarks as “divisive” and “un-Canadian.”

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in an earlier press conference that he rejected the claim made by the Green Party MP and the Bloc Quebecois leader that "oil is dead" and that the industry should get no further government support amid the coronavirus pandemic, as May had previously said.
