Premier Jason Kenney vowed Wednesday to keep fighting for Alberta's slumping oil and gas sector as the industry unveiled another disappointing drilling forecast and faced more criticism from Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet. Earlier in the day, the sovereigntist Blanchet said anyone seeking more independence for the West in the hopes of promoting the oil and gas sector should not come to him for advice. Kenney says if Blanchet is opposed to Alberta's energy industry, he should not be in favour of Quebec receiving federal equalization payments. (The Canadian Press)
