Big Foreign Oil’s Canadian Political Meddling

Big Foreign Oil’s Canadian Political Meddling The political fallout surrounding China’s alleged interference in Canadian elections has taken up a lot of media airtime recently. But there is a one very powerful source of foreign political interference that has so far escaped any significant scrutiny – Big Foreign Oil’s efforts to shape Canada’s climate and energy politics. This episode of PH features a conversation with Gordon Laxer, professor emeritus of political economy and author of a 2021 study entitled “Posing as Canadian: How Big Foreign Oil Captures Canadian Energy and Climate Policy”. The conversation includes a discussion about how Big Foreign Oil exercises its power and influence but also what needs to be done to curtail it. https://canoefm.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/PH-Resource-List-for-Big-Foreign-Oils-Canadian-Political-Meddling-Mar-30-2023.pdf
