Kenney isn’t concerned about getting jobs. He’s concerned about oil & gas and reviving the ‘90’s. They aren’t coming back.

Some of the world’s largest financial institutions have stopped putting their money behind oil production in the Canadian province of Alberta, home to one of the world’s most extensive, and also dirtiest, oil reserves.
