This new discussion paper outlines the importance of the oil and gas industry to the Canadian economy and asks readers to take this into account when debating how to address greenhouse emissions in Canada.
The idea that economic pain in one region will not spill over into the rest of the country is naive. If the oil and gas industry is hamstrung by poorly designed climate policy, the whole country will feel the negative economic effects.
