EDMONTON, ALBERTA, CANADA — Alberta's Infrastructure Minister Peter Guthrie says he accepted free Edmonton Oilers NHL playoff tickets but that it didn't contravene government conflict-of-interest rules.
"That said, you know, all disclosure requirements were fulfilled with the ethics commissioner, and it will be part of my year-end member filing," Guthrie said. Utilities Minister Nathan Neudorf has said he also attended a game as a guest of Mraiche, as has Finance Minister Nate Horner. Premier Danielle Smith accepted free tickets for games in both Edmonton and Vancouver from Explore Edmonton and Invest Alberta.
Non-monetary gifts for Alberta's elected officials used to be capped at $200 and only tickets worth up to $400 per year could be accepted. Now, both items are capped at $500, and the premier's chief of staff can also approve any ticket or gift worth more than that for staff and over $1,000 for an event, conference or meeting.
