Scheer Vows to Scrap Federal Clean Fuel Standard – The Energy Mix
Scheer’s statement aligns with a campaign against the fuel standard launched
last summer by the then Rachel Notley government in Alberta and its
fossil industry allies, and with the industry’s lobbying since. In its
2019 election platform, CBC says, the Canadian Association of Petroleum
Producers (CAPP) demands that all parties “withdraw the proposed clean
fuel standard in its entirety, as it will increase costs to both
industry and Canadians.”
