In an interview on BNN, Birchcliff Energy CEO Jeffery Tonken, offered some strong words that Canada, and specifically Alberta, are making its oil and gas industry much more noncompetitive with recent actions.

He said Canadian governments should focus on making the industry more competitive and not just throwing carbon taxes at it.
