#KrisKinnear stars as a landowner with a problem flare pit in this short film, an advertisement for #RStar.
@DonBraid column states that Kinnear is “Smith’s special projects manager who works on policy for flare pits and abandoned wells”.

#RStar lobby:
“He (like Smith) was a lobbyist around that issue. According to the premier, he quit that position in October …But the NDP produced a registry document listing him as a director of Sustaining Alberta’s Energy Network, a non-profit.”

It’s also well documented that Sustaining Alberta’s Energy Network (SAEN) raised money for UCP candidates and that Kinnear was involved in Smith’s leadership campaign.
Is this why he’s working on flarepit and abandoned well policy?

I’ve previously Tweeted that the RStar pilot is focused on contaminated flare pits and sumps, which are governed by land remediation laws. There’s no evidence Kinnear has any environmental law qualifications.

This is lobbyists sticking together to act for their taskmasters, as opposed to governing in the public interest and hiring qualified personnel to make policy recommendations
