Twelve labour and environmental groups are urging federal politicians to get the sustainable jobs act back on the House of Commons agenda so the long-awaited legislation can become law.
In a rare moment of saying the quiet part out loud, Enbridge tells the Ontario energy regulator that Conservatives will likely repeal the carbon price as a reason to dismiss certain evidence from being considered in a ruling about the future of new gas hookups.
Enbridge is officially under investigation by the Competition Bureau for allegedly misleading customers about the affordability and potential of natural gas in the energy transition.
The federal government needs to think holistically about how we support fossil fuels through the tax system, direct government funding, and other financial aid.
Environmental groups are hoping a complaint sent to Competition Bureau Canada alleging Enbridge is misleading customers will force the energy giant to stop telling people gas is the cheapest way to heat homes and instead inform them of the benefits of switching to electric.
Environmental advocates are outraged by the Ford government’s suggestion that additional land in Ontario’s protected Greenbelt may be reviewed for possible housing development.
As a working group to find common ground on energy policies gets underway, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is doubling down on her fight against the federal government.
Enbridge is pushing to expand its gas network in Ontario and is using a key study that erroneously inflated the cost of switching from gas to electricity to heat buildings by billions of dollars, evidence filed with the regulator reveals.
The ad, paid for by Environmental Defence and running in New Brunswick, defends the federal government’s clean fuel regulations and debunks Premier Blaine Higgs’ assertion they are to blame for the price of gasoline shooting up by about seven cents. It was first aired July 26 and will run until Aug. 15.
Alberta is pausing approvals for all new renewable energy projects — effective immediately — while it reviews how these projects affect land use, the power grid and how they’ll be cleaned up down the line.
British Columbia is set to grow its electric bus fleet by 115 vehicles thanks to a combined investment of nearly $400 million from the provincial and federal governments.
Canada's climate minister is facing virtually unprecedented opposition from almost every corner of the country as he works to implement a suite of clean energy policies.
The roadmap, unveiled Monday, “doesn't forecast what kind of a supply mix Ontario is going to have in the future. It doesn't make a commitment to net zero in any year ... it doesn't really forecast and talk about the price of electricity going forward because it's not forward-looking,” said Keith Brooks, programs director at Environmental Defence.
