Say "Yes" to Our Economic Future

many countries are asking for Canada's energy

• Canadian families, businesses and governments benefit immensely when more of our oil and gas is exported to energy-hungry buyers abroad --- as long as the world needs oil & gas, shouldn't it be Canadian?

• Global oil demand is projected to grow by up to 2.11 million barrels per day in 2024, to a new record high [1]

• Global liquefied natural gas (LNG) demand is projected to grow by up to 70% by 2040, to a new record high [2]

• Poland, Germany, Japan, and many other countries have said they want or are interested in buying Canadian energy to replace less reliable supply sources abroad. [3][4][5]

• Energy development is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for economic reconciliation with First Nations looking to generate own-source revenues and improve socio-economic conditions within their communities. [6]

global oil and gas demand is growing - shouldn't that come from Canada?

• Canadian oil & natural gas is projected to generate $1.1 trillion in government revenues from 2000 to 2032,[8][9] funds used to pay for our social programs and infrastructure, which contribute immensely to our quality of life and overall well-being.

• Canadian oil & natural gas accounted for $217 billion, or 30%, of Canada's total merchandise exports in 2022 [14]

• Natural resources in general account for 45% of Canada's manufacturing output [15]

• As the world approaches 9 billion people and energy demand grows rapidly by 2050 [7], all forms – oil, natural gas, wind, hydro, solar, hydrogen, geothermal, nuclear, etc. – will be needed to maintain adequate supply. We need to support all forms of energy to balance energy security and affordability.

As long as the world needs oil and gas, shouldn't it be Canadian?

• The Bank of Canada has issued a stark “emergency” warning about our country’s weak labour productivity and low levels of business investment. [10]

• The National Bank of Canada suggests that attracting private capital investment (such as that from energy resource development) could help solve our country’s economic woes. [11] Isn’t it time to turn things around by utilizing our incredible wealth of energy, mining, forestry, and agriculture resources?

• Since 2015, Canada has seen nearly $670 billion in suspended or cancelled natural resource projects. [12] With an affordability crisis affecting the bottom line of families, it is clear that Canadians cannot afford to miss job-creating resource development.

• Canada would have a significant trade deficit of more than $1 trillion if it weren't for its conventional oil and natural gas sector. Canadian energy exports form the bedrock of our nation's wealth, helping to "pay the bills" for our imports [16]

• Global demand for food, wood, energy, minerals and metals is growing as the world's population is expected to grow from 8 billion to 10 billion by 2050. Canada vast natural resource wealth and reliable supply chains makes us an ideal supplier for all of the above, which would benefit our families and economy.

• Canada is one of the few major democratic producers of oil, natural gas, minerals, metals, wood and food globally. With growing concerns about resource security, our country is well-positioned to provide our trade partners with the resources they need.

• Supporting Canada's job-creating, prosperity-generating natural resource sectors with productive policies that induce new business investment could help turn our faltering economy around and return us to the high standard of living we are used to.
