Alberta Leaders Point to Oil, Gas Growth Amid U.S. Trade Disputes

August 4, 2025--Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Provincial leaders in Alberta were preparing last week to make their economic case at a conference in Boston, as Canadian energy companies touted gains in expanding their natural gas trade outside North America. Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) from Alberta travelled to Boston on Saturday to attend the five-day National Conference of State Legislators. The conference started one day after U.S. President Donald Trump raised tariffs on Canadian imports from 25% to 35%, claiming Canada isn't doing enough to stem the flow of illicit drugs across the border.
