Harnessing Resources

Energy is critical to our everyday lives. It powers our homes, fuels our industries and supports millions of jobs across the country. As global demand increases, Canada is well-positioned to meet the world’s energy needs — from conventional oil and oil sands, to LNG, to critical minerals, and renewable electricity.

Canadians and industry alike believe that access to reliable and affordable energy must remain a top government priority — and that ambition on climate matters. Achieving both goals requires a practical, technology- and sector-agnostic approach — one that enables businesses to adopt cost-effective emissions reduction strategies while maintaining energy security and affordability.

To get there, regulatory and funding frameworks must align with business need. That means policies grounded in commercially available technology, flexibility for regional differences and support for sectors, like natural resources and power generation, that are vital to a decarbonized, diversified economy.

The Calgary Chamber continues to advocate for solutions that support sustainable resource development, drive clean innovation and ensure Canadian energy remains a global benchmark for safety, reliability, affordability and sustainability.
