National Journal: The upset election victory by a center-left party in Alberta--the heart of Canada's oil country--may also have eliminated one of the most public faces in the lobbying effort promoting the Keystone XL pipeline. Former Alberta premiers Alison Redford and Jim Prentice were frequent visitors to Washington to promote the pipeline, and touted it as a necessary project for promoting Canada's oil-sands development.

The May 6 fundraiser at the home of Steyer and his wife, Kat Taylor, is billed as an afternoon "Conversation With Hillary,' and it comes as the former hedge fund manager winds down climate policy work at his nonprofit with a busy 2016 campaign season ahead....
