She could have played hardball with Horgan, but instead she made idle threats and delayed acting long enough for the federal government to step in and put an end to Trans Mountain. And of course she now blames the federal government, in an attempt to appear that she is fighting for Alberta. Anyone with a clue knows that the Trans Mountain commercials are nothing but a waste of money, but with an election coming, she is doing everything she can, to try and buy votes. As it stands, even more energy jobs will be lost, and it will only get worse before it gets better, which can only happen if both upcoming elections result in changes of government.
