Kevin O'Leary pledges $1-million if Premier Notley steps down [View all]

Bring it on.

That was Alberta Premier Rachel Notley’s reaction to outspoken financial pundit Kevin O’Leary’s offer to put $1 million into Canadian energy companies in exchange for Notley’s resignation.

In an interview with Toronto radio station Newstalk 1010 on Monday, the former Dragon’s Den host offered to invest $1 million in Canadian energy companies if Notley steps down “for the absolute good of Canada,” citing mounting job losses in Alberta.

“The last time a group of wealthy businessmen tried to tell Alberta voters how to vote, I ended up becoming premier,” quipped Notley on Tuesday, referencing the controversial pleading of five Edmonton CEOs to vote PC during the last election.

“Now we’ve got a Toronto wealthy businessman telling voters how to vote. I say bring it on.”
