Meanwhile, Environment and Climate Change Canada is forecasting 2026 to be one of the hottest years on record. Ontario and Quebec are currently roasting under a #heatdome.
PM Carney "also admitted that in prioritizing oil production, Canada is moving further away from achieving its climate targets and that emissions would likely be higher than forecasted."

Is Carney pitching that Canada become more like Norway? Profits generated by oil & gas need to be used to help fund the transition to cleaner energy sources for domestic use. "Norway long ago acknowledged its petroleum reserves wouldn't last forever and that it should use the revenues to diversify the economy. [They] are not exposed to risks of energy shock or decline in the oil markets the way that Canadians are." 4/6 #CdnPoli #EnergySovereignty #sustainability
