“Trudeau knows nothing about finances”: Albertans protest Liberal minister in Edmonton

Federal Natural Resources Minister Amarjeet Sohi was greeted by a pro-pipeline rally in Edmonton early this morning.

Sohi, one of four Alberta Liberal MPs, was speaking at an early morning meeting of business leaders from the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce at the World Trade Centre downtown.

However, outside on the street the real business case was being made by attendees of a rally co-organized by Rally for Resources and Canada Action.

At its peak, some 150-200 people demonstrated in support of the Trans Mountain pipeline and against the Liberals’ pipeline killing Bill C-69.

I was one of the few reporters on the scene, as the event kicked off well before 8 am. The sun wasn’t even up yet but the folks on the street had a lot to say about how the Liberals have been mishandling the pipeline file and mistreating Alberta.

Watch my video to see the signs, hear the chants and hear what the people at the rally had to say.

Rally For Resources says they’ll continue to organize demonstrations whenever a Liberal cabinet minister shows up in Alberta.
