Young Canadians for Resources

Young Canadians advocating for an informed and balanced conversation about Canada’s natural resources 🇨🇦

A little late, but we're wishing the best of luck to all students embarking on exciting co-op and internship terms this May!

Student positions in industry are a great way to gain hands-on experience while still in university. Apply your skills and education, learn as much as you can from those around you, and have FUN!

Canada is a reliable partner in a time of global uncertainty and our energy sector helps pay for healthcare, dental care, $10/day daycare, and pharmacare.

Done properly, Canadian energy strengthens our allies, funds our services, and lowers global emissions.

[Canada Action @CanadaAction]

Oil and gas are absolute pillars of our government's finances.

The sector supports the essential services we all enjoy and rely on.

The world is calling for more Canadian natural gas.

South Korean imports of Canadian crude quadrupled quarter over quarter in 2026 — from 17,000 barrels a day in Q1 to 61,000 in Q2.

That's not an accident — it's new demand built on:

✅ Tariff-free access under the Canada–Korea Free Trade Agreement.

✅ Government-to-government cooperation on energy and critical minerals.

✅ New barrels reaching tidewater via Trans Mountain.

✅ And reliability — the underlying commodity in every Canadian barrel.

Canada's exports hit a record in June, with more merchandise going to countries other than the U.S.

“The expansion of the Tilbury LNG Facility is an investment in B.C.’s future, creating jobs, growing our economy and helping reduce emissions through an investment of more than $2 billion,” — Adrian Dix, Minister of Energy and Climate Solutions https://t.co/4hTOeaGf6S

Why are we seeing so much investment in western Canada's natural gas transportation infrastructure?
Oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (NGLs) are closely interconnected. In many Western Canadian plays, oil and NGLs drive project economics, while natural gas is a byproduct.

Western Canada produces more natural gas than it can consistently consume or move to higher-value markets. During periods of severe transportation constraints, prices have even turned negative. That's why expanding market access matters—through pipelines to the U.S. and eastern Canada, LNG exports to Asia and Europe, or as power generation for data centres.

As oil sands production grows, so will demand for condensate (used as diluent). Meeting that demand will require development of liquids-rich resources, which will bring yet more natural gas to market.

Building natural gas transportation infrastructure is essential for us to capture more value for producers, governments, and the broader Canadian economy. It’s very low hanging fruit for better productivity, revenue and exports.

More pipelines!
Construction is poised to begin right away on a new 235 km $2.9B natural gas pipeline in central Alberta after the provincial power regulator approved the Yellowhead project proposed by Canadian Utilities (ATCO subsidiary)

Canada is a nuclear energy superpower.

With world-leading uranium reserves and top nuclear technologies, we’re setting an example for neighbours around the world.

[Stephen Lecce @Sflecce]

On nuclear energy, Ontario had the foresight to recognize long ago what much of the world is only realizing today.

After 70 years of civilian nuclear leadership, Ontario is leading North America's largest expansion, building on-time and on-budget.

As nations invest to double their grids, nuclear power is the only answer at scale to generate 24/7 reliable, clean, and affordable power over an 80 year lifespan.

ICYMI: Canada is getting a data centre.

Meta will officially be building the $13B Sturgeon Data Centre north of Edmonton. After years of hyping up Alberta's data centre capacity, it's finally happening.

To power the massive 1GW data centre, Pembina Pipeline, Kineticor Asset Management, and others are building a $4.6B gas-fired generating plant.
