Pipeline Online Podcast Ep. 13: Greg Rickford, Ontario Minister for the Ring of Fire

Jim Warren: Don’t worry be unhappy and support efforts to defend the energy sector in the West
As I once said, only somewhat tongue in cheek, the bargaining power of the West will increase as a result of a strong showing by the “leave” side in the Alberta referendum. Keeping the conservative, pro-development and the alienated groups united in the months ahead will be important. If that becomes the biggest challenge, perhaps we don’t deserve to win.

The state of uncertainty has clouded investments, killed jobs, eroded community support for programs, made it difficult for businesses to obtain and retain qualified employees, decreased property values and turned people’s dreams and hopes of an amazing life into a nightmare.”
