Canada’s Energy, Resource and Climate, A National Discussion: Featuring Premiers Danielle Smith and Andrew Furey

Canada is a resource rich powerhouse that has all the energy and critical minerals necessary for a prosperous future.

Has Canada given up on the grand bargain between climate and energy?  With mounting division over carbon pricing and a potential reset on energy policy, join the Empire Club of Canada for a national perspective on the energy “trilemma” of sustainability, affordability and reliability.

Is Canada ready to take advantage of the increasing importance of critical minerals to the global economy and what it means for powering the emissions reduction, sustainability and global supply chains?  

This event will ask whether it is possible to increase interprovincial cooperation in order to balance regional interests and create a unified approach to position Canada as a responsible and reliable resource partner.

The world is changing rapidly. Escalating conflicts in energy-producing regions of the world marked 2024, while America is preparing for a new Presidential administration. How does this impact Canada’s role in providing energy security and independence? What role will Canadian energy and critical minerals play under the new Trump administration?

Join us on December 17th as Empire Club of Canada presents the fourth event in our Fall Energy Series  — a national discussion on energy and critical minerals. This is an event you won’t want to miss, featuring Premier Danielle Smith of Alberta and Premier Andrew Furey of Newfoundland and Labrador. With their distinct regional and political perspectives, they will offer valuable insights into Canada’s energy future.

Both Premiers will lay out their vision and sit down to a moderated discussion where they discuss their common ground.

This event is presented in partnership with Resource Works Society.
