Natural Resources committee The Net-Zero Advisory Body takes a look at expert advice from economists. That advice for decades has been that one of the most efficient mechanisms is a carbon price. I think there's a question about efficiency related to whether it's a public-facing carbon price or it's an indu

Natural Resources committee My last point is that we think the civil service clearly has a strong role, and we think the modelling and policy capacity could be bolstered, considering the economic stakes we have in this retooling global economy. Thank you.

Natural Resources committee Thank you very much. Thank you to the committee for the invite. I want to acknowledge that I'm coming to you from the Treaty 7 region in southern Alberta. This has also been a gathering place for Métis and indigenous peoples other than Treaty 7 signatories. I'm coming to you

Natural Resources committee We're not addressing that question, because it's an artificial question. The concept of increasing—

Dan Wicklum
Natural Resources committee There's a tension here between production levels and intensity. If you combine production levels with the intensity of the product, you get emissions.

Natural Resources committee We feel completely independent. We continuously check our operations and how we interact with the government to make sure that we are independent. We are confident that we're independent. As to whether the government supports the oil and gas sector.... Again, we're thinking deep

Natural Resources committee Are you getting that million-barrel increase number from the Canada Energy Regulator forecast report?
February 9th, 2022Committee meeting
Dan Wicklum
Natural Resources committee We take a look at that forecast from the Canada Energy Regulator and see it as one of many prognostications about what the future will look like. The one we rely on the most is from the International Energy Agency, which predicts that by 2050, gas consumption globally will be dow

February 9th, 2022Committee meeting
Dan Wicklum

Dan Wicklum
Natural Resources committee I think that's a struggle that every government is having in the whole world, at the level of the nation, the province, the region or municipality. How do we act more quickly? My feeling is that we have moved away from a paradigm of emissions reduction, where we've been for 30 y
February 9th, 2022Committee meeting
Dan Wicklum
Natural Resources committee If I may bridge that question back into our original summary report, one of the key things we found was that this concept of getting to net zero is not just a downside. This is probably one of the largest economic opportunities in many generations, and you can see the whole world
February 9th, 2022Committee meeting
Dan Wicklum
Natural Resources committee One of our core principles is that people have been waiting for 30 years for the federal government to do something so that they could act. We're past that. Responsibility needs to be shared equally by the private sector, the federal government, the provincial governments and mun
