That's a particularly credulous take, given the circumstances. You can't just gesticulate and say, "regulations, eh?", and get away with theft.

I assume with a good legal team that he can probably afford, they would not advise him to state what he did since he could incriminate himself further. The situation is probably not that serious for him to be stating that in public. Or hes crazy.

Beyond the implicit admission that the power plant did indeed operate, and that there is a “disagreement” about the legitimacy of its operation, saying “it’s just a big misunderstanding” is not self-incrimination. I think that’s a weak argument with some large logical leaps, and it certainly does nothing to indicate this article was clickbait.

I wouldn't assume they have a good legal team, its a penny stock with a market cap that is almost eclipsed by the fines they are facing from Alberta regulators.

If the allegations are true, I think crazy goes without saying.
Well this is quite important rather than just the clickbait title
