CALGARY Alberta (Reuters) - Alberta, the Canadian province with the world's third-largest crude reserve in its oil sands, said Wednesday it will not participate in a global oil conference in Moscow next month as a protest against Russia's actions in Ukraine.
The province's government said it will not staff a booth, as had earlier been planned, in the Canadian pavilion at the World Petroleum Congress scheduled for June 15 through 19. It will also refrain from supporting any Alberta-based companies attending the event.
