Alberta Premier Danielle Smith pushed Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for progress on the Alberta-Canada memorandum of understanding (MOU) on energy Friday — weeks after the deadline passed for its finalization.

“[We] still have a few things to work out and I hope that we can get to the finish line on signing that MOU,” Smith told Carney in front of reporters.

“I know industry is getting a bit impatient, Albertans are getting a little bit impatient, and if we’re going to move forward with that MOU, I hope it happens in the next number of days.”

While the centerpiece of the MOU includes a framework for a new pipeline to be built from Alberta to B.C.’s coast, it also exempts Alberta from Canada’s Clean Electricity Regulations as the two governments work out a new industrial carbon pricing agreement that aims for Alberta to “achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.”
