Jim Warren: COVID-19 and climate change. How much will people take?
Perhaps there is something about the rarefied air of the Laurentians that convinces our policy making elite that their mantle of virtue and belief in our impending doom places them beyond the mortal bounds of common sense and the realities of social and economic life for most of us.

Steve Halabura: Potash 101
Putin’s invasion of the Ukraine has brought down sanctions against the Russian financial system, Russian oligarchs, and Russian resource exporters. You can also lump Putin’s henchman Lukashenko into this mix. When you do this, you taint 40% of the world’s trade in potash.

David Yager: Natural gas, Alberta’s forgotten economic powerhouse. Gas is back in a big way

Brian Crossman: Indirect influence (or communicate for crying out loud)
When I write these columns, articles, opinion pieces or whatever the hell you call them, I know full well the people reading them probably agree with what I have to say. Hey, I work in the energy industry and this publication is Pipeline Online, right? So yeah, the...
