Ep 67Is Canada Falling Behind? The Truth About the Energy Transition (ft. Mackenzie Investments)

Canada sits on a goldmine of energy resources, yet it risks "snatching defeat from the jaws of victory" in the global race for energy leadership. In this episode of The Future of the Energy Transition expert series presented by Mackenzie Investments, Christine Healy, President and CEO of Northland Power, and John Cook, Senior VP & Portfolio Manager at Mackenzie Investments, break down the paradox of Canada’s energy potential. From the record-breaking scale of the Oneida battery storage project to the untapped frontier of offshore wind, the conversation explores why Canada, despite having one of the world’s greenest grids, is becoming one of the slowest jurisdictions in the OECD for project permitting. The discussion dives deep into the "nation-building" necessity of east-west grid interconnections, the pragmatic role of natural gas exports in displacing global coal, and the urgent regulatory reforms needed to attract the capital required for a 2040 vision of energy autonomy.
