Danielle Smith Fights Ottawa's Emissions Cap

Real Talk Ryan Jespersen

Danielle Smith says if Justin Trudeau's so confident in his energy policy, he should call an election. Alberta's Premier dared the Prime Minister to do exactly that just hours before our interview with federal Energy Minister Jonathan Wilkinson. We get into the next chapter of Alberta's longstanding feud with Ottawa over emissions caps, renewables, and the future of the economy.

2:15 | Minister Wilkinson tells us how he really feels about Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology and the Prime Minister's testimony at a public inquiry into foreign interference.

29:00 | Are some conflicts unresolvable? In this day and age, you might think so. But professional mediators Janine Fraser, Paulette deKelver, and Don Schapira say anything's possible with the right approach. We talk pugilistic politics, corporate conflict, and fiery family disputes on Conflict Resolution Day.
