Energy for a Secure Future provides statement on Federal oil and gas emissions cap announcement

Canada continues to pursue its climate policy in a vacuum, ignoring the big picture of global emissions. This places at risk our international interests, tens of thousands of good paying jobs and important progress on reconciliation. Canada’s international allies are seeking our energy resources to enable them to displace higher emitting fuels and to support their security. This policy will act as a barrier to this and to the investment attraction required for ongoing environmental innovation.”
