Canada’s oil and gas emissions cap is an ill-conceived policy not in line with other countries.
Global oil and gas demand is growing.
Why is Canada the only major energy producer introducing an oil & gas production emissions cap?
--------
“Look around the world. No other major oil and gas producer is doing what we’re doing — the United States, Norway, Gulf states. We are the only major oil and gas producers in the world to do this.”
Steven Guilbeault – Canada’s Minister of Environment & Climate Change
--------
“These new federal policies will have serious economic impacts on Canadians and limit our… Canadian energy production from providing heat and electricity to the world.
Scott Moe – Premier of Saskatchewan
--------
“The oil and gas emission cap announced today is a discriminatory and divisive policy proposal – the epitome of bad public policy. It will cap Canadian prosperity – billions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs lost for no benefit…”
Adam Legge – President, Business Council of Alberta
--------
“At a time when Canada’s economy is stalling, imposing an oil and gas emissions cap will only make Canadians poorer. Strong climate action requires a strong economy. This cap will leave us with neither.”
Goldy Hyder – President & CEO, Business Council of Canada
--------
"This production cap will hurt families, hurt businesses and hurt Canada's economy."
Danielle Smith – Premier of Alberta
--------
“Secure, reliable, affordable energy matters… This policy will devastate the Canadian economy, drive up costs for families and kill tens of thousands of jobs.
Rebecca Schulz – Alberta Minister of Environment & Protected Areas
--------
“An emissions cap, which will act as a cap on domestic production of natural gas, will harm Canadian families and businesses by raising prices on energy.”
François Poirier – CEO, TC Energy
--------
At a time when Canada’s economy is struggling, the oil & gas production cap is the last thing we need.
What Canadian families need are policies that will support our job-creating, prosperity-generating natural resource sectors…
…Not ones that will do undue harm to the economy when global oil & gas demand is growing.
Like Mr. Guilbeault said:
"We are the only major oil and gas producers in the world to do this.”
Why is that?
Maybe because it’s a BAD IDEA!
The world needs more Canadian energy – not less!

Global energy demand is growing and more countries than ever before are asking for or buying our energy.
So why are we the only country in the world talking about a production emissions cap? #CdnPoli #CdnEcon pic.twitter.com/JYJfhPs85Q
