The federal government’s commitment to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050 has people in the energy sector worried. The natural resources minister says creative approaches such as developing hydrogen and even SMRs (small modular nuclear reactors) can help meet that goal. Seamus O’Regan insists achieving net zero must include pipelines and leave no one behind. Meanwhile, the Conservatives have released their climate change plan and it includes a price on carbon. Kathleen Petty sits down with Minister O’Regan, and then looks at the impact and politics for Alberta, the country’s biggest oil and gas producer. Her guests are University of Alberta economist Andrew Leach and columnist Kelly Cryderman of the Globe and Mail.
