A protester who said he does not want the province of Alberta “to be polluted” stormed the stage at the 2019 Global Petroleum Show in Calgary on June 11.
Speakers at the 2019 show include Alberta Premier Jason Kenney, Danielle Smith from Global News Radio 770 CHQR, philanthropist Brett Wilson and Petroleum Service Association of Canada president and CEO Gary Mar.
shortly before Kenney was about to address the crowd, a protestor climbed onto the stage and grabbed the microphone.
“Before we have a chance to hear from the premier, I just want to say he does not represent me,” the unidentified man said. “This is a cesspool of hypocrisy.”
The man continued to address the crowd as event organizers attempted to get him to leave.
Officers then approached the man, handcuffing him and removing him from the stage.
