Kenney talks pipelines with Trudeau after election win, calls it cordial
EDMONTON — Jason Kenney, Alberta’s incoming premier, said he cordially talked pipelines Wednesday with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau — Kenney’s political nemesis and his election campaign pinata — and said the plan is to meet soon for a one-on-one.
“He called to offer his congratulations. We spoke for about 15 minutes,” Kenney said outside Alberta’s legislature building.
“We had a respectful conversation about a number of issues, including the need to get Canadian energy to foreign markets.”
Kenney said he and Trudeau will try to meet shortly after Kenney and his new United Conservative government are sworn in on April 30.
