Carbon Tax Changes // Major Project Deadline Update
April 1 is shaping up to be a consequential day for Canada’s energy and economic landscape. Carbon pricing is set to rise for large industrial emitters in several provinces, raising big questions about competitiveness, investment, and emissions targets. At the same time, a key deadline hits for major resource and infrastructure projects (including those tied to Alberta-Ottawa agreements) putting the spotlight on regulatory timelines, political will, and whether Canada can actually get big projects built. 4:30 | Economist Dr. Andrew Leach digs into it all, in plain language, in our feature interview presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West.
