Alberta government is aiming to soften new rules against greenwashing that led Canadian oil and gas groups to scrub their websites of climate pledges or add disclaimers. 

 

Part of this concerns the Pathways Alliance, who are already the subject of a Competition Bureau complaint for an alleged misleading advertising campaign about its efforts to reduce emissions.  Almost lost in this article is the statement that Pathways Alliance is still trying to secure federal government support for a proposed $16.5-billion carbon capture pipeline project.  ANOTHER PIPELINE PROJECT IN THE MULTI-BILLIONS!  Surely Trudeau’s Liberals won’t fall for this again?

 

Is there no end to the immorality surrounding fossil fuels?

They likely will fall for it.  If PP Oiliver gets in he'll likely double the amount given to the Alliance.
