“The independent Coal Policy Committee has submitted both the engagement report and the final report, which contains their recommendations on Alberta’s long-term approach to coal. The government will take the necessary time to review the reports’ findings and recommendations carefully before they are released publicly.

“I thank the committee for their diligence and hard work engaging with Albertans and in developing their recommendations. I also want to thank all Albertans, Indigenous people, communities and organizations that participated in the process and provided their valuable input.”
