Despite years of protests and organized opposition, the Alberta Energy Regulator has elected to approve the Grassy Mountain coal project in the Rockies.

Is it metallurgical/coking coal? If so, then sure with environmental requirements "up the ying yang". Otherwise a hard no should have been the decision.
It’s metallurgical, but flies in the face of Alberta’s Dec 2024 plans to ban new mountaintop removal and open pit coal mining on the eastern slope of the Rockies. No-one needs to be doing MAGA-aligned Gina Rinehart any favours. But it might explain the apparent exemption by Alberta.
Another reason to work hard to see the UCP does not get a majority and a moratorium can be placed on coal extraction! #FireTheUCP #SupportTheNDP #Organize #Resist #AbPoli #CndPoli #MAGAcons #UnethicalAlberta #BadGovernment #Selenium
I HATE this. Alberta is a cesspool of shite thanks to the stupidity that carries the corrupt UCP. Idiots. #BandishTheUCP #DanielleSmithIsAbhorrent #abpoli
Unbelievable! Now the government is going poison everybody down stream and screw the Agra business, that is okay because Dani will make sure O&G does well!
Canada only has one environment and can we not let the stupidest people destroy it? Coal in 2025 during unprecedented climate disasters? What are they smoking in Alberta?
The AER is not at arms length from the Gov’t, they are in their pocket! This was a cancelled project where Brian Jean played Jesus and like Lazarus raised it from the dead. All so the richest woman in Australia can pillage our mountains and make more $.
