Conservatives are still angry they lost the Northern Gateway pipeline, and never miss an opportunity to pretend they're being treated unfairly whenever they don't get their own way.
Some media are speculating it's a "trap" for Carney - if he deletes the tanker ban, he loses BC, if he doesn't, the Cons get to whine about that.
In any case, Smith's government has been absolutely riddled with scandal after scandal, and the timing of this stunt - right around the teacher strike - is too suspicious IMO. Predictably, more AB media is yapping about her pipeline BS than they are reporting on the teacher strike.
