Trump's trade war has created political room to advance resource development and global market access—without the usual handwringing from the rest of Canada.

One of the best media interviews I've ever done.

"Has the West won the economic argument under a Liberal PM?"

I'll never forget the day I woke up to witness the controlled explosion of a high-rise building next to my home. I was 13.

Somehow this story about China's industrialization is connected to AI, energy markets & even universal basic income.

Another thing to pay attention to in Thursday's federal budget...

What a super Western alignment of 3 premiers could mean for economic cooperation. https://t.co/pPON0D8Yxy

My latest for @TheHubCanada
Alberta is testing the boundary from owning resources to developing them. This has manifested in its various royalty-in-kind programs; equity stakes in pipelines and refineries; and even the floating of a Crown corporation to build and own natural gas pipelines, albeit later dismissed.

I don’t think Alberta has yet crossed a line. But what is a conservative government if not one that participates in the market reluctantly, and with regret, and with a clear exit strategy? What we are seeing instead is a government that seems to be seeking opportunities to become a market participant, keeping its options open and numerous, and making deals that could otherwise be left to firms.

There is a place for market interventionism in some extenuating circumstances. I won’t suggest otherwise. But the political culture in Alberta is such that it should be practiced as a last resort, not a first resort.

[Falice Chin @faliceemo]

There's a missing ingredient in Alberta's grand ambition to ramp up oilsands production & support what looks like a pipeline-building revival... And no, I'm not talking about capital or even regulatory changes. DILUENT!

Why is no one talking about this?

This is the closest @GK_Fellows
& team will ever get to quantum physics in modelling Alberta separation multiverses. SPP deserves massive kudos, but feelings & human irrationality are key factors that often get in the way. Seppie wishful thinking beware.

Fresh off the podcast studio! @awlegge Adam Legge explains what's in the gov-commissioned report on the potential cost of AB separation, how he thinks about the "smooth" vs "difficult" scenarios, etc. Listen here or on wherever you find your podcasts: https://t.co/SWbDoc8sqt

[Falice Chin @faliceemo]

Danielle Smith may have downplayed the Crown nat gas pipelines idea, but she didn't downplay the NGTL bottleneck problem. She even called TC Energy' a "monopoly." Here's MUCH MORE & how this issue could become another AB vs Ottawa spat!
