From BC’s energy bottlenecks to global trade dynamics, he shares a pragmatic roadmap for how Canada can balance ambition with feasibility—and why letting the market lead could help us get there faster.Watch the full episode for clear-eyed insights on where we're headed, what we’re getting wrong, and how to avoid costly policy missteps.Send us Fan MailThe energy conversation is polarizing.
