Adam Waterous is asked if he is pessimistic or optimistic on the Canadian oil industry with all the government announcements lately.
He summarizes it pretty well stating that if he were an investor, he would probably be looking at the USA instead of Canada. pic.twitter.com/NqLX0USlxx

International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers respond to NDP coal position: “A deliberate misrepresentation of costs”
It turns out if the NDP wants your job to disappear, they don’t get your support. Imagine that? As in, if they want your house to lose half or more of its value, you to lose your job, and would rather spend money on gas from Alberta or wind and solar, what would you think?

I want a new country.
As I was sifting through the influencer pulp this morning on the UAE decision to leave OPEC (and decided to sit it out), I stumbled upon this chart from the just released OPEC Annual Statistical Bulletin.
Let’s zoom in.
Blue is crude price, red is tax, coral is industry profit margin.

The Saskatchewan coal refurbishment plan, laid out by year until 2035.
This is the most detail I’ve seen so far, laying out expected cost per unit, and a year-by-year plan to rebuild them. And I go into some detail into how much cheaper this would be than building new natural gas-fired power plants. It’s a lot.
Turns out, net zero was easier to reach than anyone dared dream: Australia has 403 billion barrels of shale oil — 17.5 billion of which is immediately recoverable. But it banned fracking. So now it’s begging for diesel from countries that don’t have a gallon to spare 🤡
Mais oui, it was finalement, euh, within zee reach, non? French energy giant TotalEnergies says it will no longer aim to reach net zero emission targets by 2050

We call this “thinking ahead”.
Industry analyst Anas Alhajji;
More than 200,000 people are attending ADIPEC this year. The expo is the largest energy expo on earth. It would take a person two days to go through it. The large presence of Russian and Chinese companies is noticeable.
The most important takeaways are these:
∙ There is no energy transition, only energy addition
∙ Energy reinforcement, not replacement.
∙ Demand for oil will continue to grow
∙ OPEC: Investment of $18.2 billion is needed to meet oil demand by 2050.
∙ Innovation is more important than regulation
∙ AI is changing the energy industry

The dumbest generation of CEO’s in history tried to appease the crocodiles:
In a rare display of corporate sanity, Suncor Energy has abruptly cut funding to a climate activist charity peddling “resilience” projects across Indigenous communities. The decision marks a welcome shift away from the company’s years-long flirtation with the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) mob.
Suncor had pledged $500,000 to The Resilience Institute, a climate group focused on adapting communities to so-called “climate risks.”
But instead of handing over the cash and patting itself on the back for more hollow virtue signalling, Suncor pulled the plug — quietly, firmly, and without apology.
A “six year attempt” at pleasing their enemies. This may be the dumbest generation of CEO’s in corporate history.

Telegraph- Why Europe came to regret its ‘crippling’ nuclear power shutdown
In the end, it took Denmark just minutes to scrap a ban on nuclear power that had stood for 40 years. The totemic change – rammed through in a parliamentary vote – passed with only a few murmurs from the country’s MPs, two thirds of whom supported it.
