The government is considering an annual pass for boats, jet skis, canoes, kayaks and other watercraft.
It says all the money would go towards increasing defences against invasive mussels.
The species is growing in North America but has not established in any of Alberta’s over 600 lakes.
So we do not have these invasive mussels but they want to collect money to defend against them. Yep I trust this government to collect money to defend against something that is not here. Also I have a rock for sale that protects against tigers.
Alberta spent $30M on unpaid land rent for delinquent oil and gas companies in 2024
When oil and gas companies are unable, or unwilling, to pay their land rent, the provincial government will pay it for them. More than 99% of the time, the government never gets its money back
