On The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian is joined by Lisa Baiton to examine Canada’s role in a rapidly changing global energy landscape.🌍 Part 1 — Energy in a New Global OrderWe explore how geopolitical instability and shifting alliances are reshaping global energy markets, and why energy security has returned as a central pillar of national strategy. 🇨🇦 Part 2 — Canada’s Energy PositionCanada is a major oil and gas producer with record output and major infrastructure projects — but limited export capacity continues to constrain growth. ⚠️ Part 3 — Overreliance on the United StatesWith the vast majority of exports going to the U.S., we discuss the urgency of diversifying energy markets to Europe and Asia and strengthening long-term economic sovereignty.🛢 Part 4 — Strategic Energy SecurityWe explore the surprising absence of a Canadian strategic oil reserve and what energy security could look like in a modern geopolitical context. 🏗 Part 5 — Nation-Building Through EnergyEnergy projects are more than industry — they are nation-building. We discuss infrastructure, investment certainty, and Canada’s potential to become a true global energy power. 🔎 The Big QuestionCanada has the resources.
