``Yes to TMX''

Energy Minister unveils new ad campaign in Ottawa

May 29, 2019 | 5:26 PM

Alberta’s new energy minister travelled to Ottawa today to announce a new ad campaign in support of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

Sonya Savage says the “Yes to TMX” campaign shows Alberta’s new United Conservative government is standing up for jobs and the energy industry.

The province is paying $1.65-million just to roll out the multimedia campaign in Ottawa with additional campaigns planned across Canada.

“Yes to TMX” will appear on digital display ads and posters at restaurants, bars and the Ottawa airport to urge the federal government to make a firm decision on the project that Alberta needs to get its oil to foreign markets.
