Yes. Also, the government should raise more awareness about the lack of a suitable alternative, rather than focusing on current technologies that cannot replace fossil fuels

The government should never subsidize any company for any reason

 @8R4KM77from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

yes, but only provide a helping hand/insentive

 @8QLM4GMfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Only if it is nuclear energy

 @8NXRYZTLibertarianfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Federal government should get no tax from provincial resources

 @8D7725Wfrom Alberta  answered…5yrs5Y

No, we should give private sector opportunities in this field as it would create more private sector jobs

 @9CFXL4Xfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

It's a terrible question. You could because we have more renewable energy in abundant natural resources but how long before a country decides to put its bid in and manage it without the general population notices it. Waste of tax dollars and probably controlled by a political stance we cannot understand. Untrustworthy liberals did this to us, that's why no party could control this without it going terribly wrong.

 @98CFVZQfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

Private industry should do it on their own.

Kamala Harris is considering running for president again in 2028

Kamala Harris has been lying low since her defeat in the presidential race, unwinding with family and senior aides in Hawaii before heading back to the nation’s capital.But privately, the vice president has been instructing advisers and allies to keep her options open — whether for a possible 2028 presidential run, or even to run for governor in her home state of California in two years. As Harris has repeated in phone calls, “I am staying in the fight.”She is expected to explore those and other possible paths forward with family members over the winter holiday season, according to five people in the Harris inner circle, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal dynamics. Her deliberations follow an extraordinary four months in which Harris went from President Joe Biden’s running mate to the top of the ticket, reenergizing Democrats before ultimately crashing on election night.“She doesn’t have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months,” said one former Harris campaign aide. “The natural thing to do would be to set up some type of entity that would give her the opportunity to travel and give speeches and preserve her political relationships.”“She doesn’t have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months,” said one former Harris campaign aide. “The natural thing to do would be to set up some type of entity that would give her the opportunity to travel and give speeches and preserve her political relationships.”Harris concedes: 'We must accept the results of this election'SharePlay VideoMost immediately, Harris and her advisers are working to define how and when she will speak out against Donald Trump and reassert her own role in the Democratic Party. Closing out her term as vice president, she’s set to preside over certifying the November election she lost to Trump, and then appear at the once-and-future president’s inauguration on Jan. 20.“There will be a desire to hear her voice, and there won’t be a vacuum for long,” a person close to Harris said.At the same time, Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, will have a long checklist to plow through before they leave the Naval Observatory for good.They have to decide whether they’ll take up permanent residence at their home in Los Angeles, or establish a base elsewhere. No matter where Harris and her family live, some around her have expressed concerns about safety, as her Secret Service protection expires six months after stepping away.
