David Yager: Canada increases domestic energy costs while co-operating to reduce prices globally
If you’re confused by 21st century energy geopolitics, it’s not your fault.
The Russia/Ukraine war, EU’s economic crisis, global energy prices, rising inflation and interest rates, and the G7/EU price cap on Russian oil exports announced December 5 have created daunting challenges for international politics and diplomacy.
The most recent solution is one whereby G7 member Canada has helped make oil cheaper for the world without relaxing existing commitments to increase Canadian energy costs through carbon taxes, emissions caps, and the Clean Fuel Regulations.
Brian Zinchuk: Ding! Ding! Ding! Alarm bells should be ringing in Alberta as wind failure leads to second grid alert in three days. Saskatchewan should take notice
As evidenced twice this past week, the electrical grid can barely handle the demand we have, now, before we switch most of our transportation system to electric vehicles. What happens when half our cars and trucks are EVs? Then three-quarters? What happens when the wind doesn’t blow then? No one goes to work?
When will the other media take notice? When will they start to question this mad rush to wind and solar, and total adoption of electric vehicles? When will someone else in the Saskatchewan media declare “The emperor has no clothes?”
Letter to the editor: 25,000 years from now, most of Canada will likely be covered by ice sheets, again. As it was 25,000 years ago
Re: The Canadian Press op-ed: Ending the climate crisis has one simple solution: Stop using fossil fuels, published Nov. 15. First off, there is no climate crisis. We do have a crisis in critical thinking, integrity, and corruption. There is zero evidence that CO2 is...
Letter to the Editor: Wind and battery power were non existent in Alberta last week

Brian Crossman: Be interesting
If you have chosen this industry, you will continue to meet amazing and highly successful people, many of whom started out with nothing. Now these same people are presidents, vice presidents and owners of companies. Many of them have worked all over the world, in some very interesting (sometimes scary) places. If you have the opportunity, and you will, be sure to talk to these guys, learn about their experiences, and maybe try these things on your own. There is some real adventure to be had if you are so inclined. I have friends that have worked pretty much anywhere there is oil and gas to be found. They have seen and done things that will blow your mind. These fellas can tell you some extremely interesting stories about the energy industry and the people that work in it.
