Premier Rachel Notley says she will speak at the upcoming Alberta Teachers’ Association convention to counter an anticipated keynote speech by anti-pipeline activist Tzeporah Berman.
The ATA has been under fire for inviting Berman, a key opponent of the Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion, to speak at its conference in Enoch from Oct 11 to Oct. 13.
“I will be going myself to make the case for Alberta and our industry to grow, to counter misinformation and ensure that the whole story is told,” Notley told delegates Thursday at the Alberta Urban Municipality Association meeting in Red Deer.
