Alberta Opposition Leader Rachel Notley is tabling proposed legislation she says would protect the province’s Rocky Mountains from new open-pit coal mines.
The private member’s bill calls for coal exploration to be blocked across the eastern slopes of the Rockies and for road-building and drilling to end.
It would cancel coal leases issued after the United Conservative government scrapped a policy last May that protected those slopes and would stop the province’s energy regulator from issuing development permits.
