Show Notes
Alberta's oilsands have come a long way from the early days of resource-heavy open-pit mines, when they became the poster child for environmentalist opposition. Today, new technologies, lower costs, and shifting ownership have reshaped both the industry's footprint and its role in Canada's economy. Alberta Edge host Ryan Hastman sits down with former energy executive Will Lacey to trace that transformation—from the viral moment he was told to remove his "I ♥ Canadian Oil & Gas" shirt on Parliament Hill, to the growing Canadianization of the sector, and the political forces that continue to shape its future.
