“Who’s got the power here?”

That question, says Professor Russell Muirhead of Dartmouth College, defines Donald Trump’s worldview — one where every relationship is a contest of domination.

“Every time we try to move forward, someone pulls us back.”

The result: a fragmented strategy, slower innovation, and a growing competitiveness gap with countries that have already embraced the clean economy.

“If you want to know what’s likely to happen in Alberta,” says Markham Hislop, “look at what’s been happening in the United States.”

As the U.S. grapples with Project 2025, Alberta’s political direction raises the same question: What happens when populism meets power?

South America took the wrong turn — and North America became rich. There’s nothing that guarantees Canada won’t repeat that mistake.”

The fines are real — but so is the resolve.

In an exclusive Energi Media interview, Alberta Federation of Labour President Gil McGowan lays out the stakes: if workers are going to take action, it must be so big and so bold that the system itself can’t contain it.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s government is pushing legislation that forces teachers back to work — but labour leaders say enough is enough.

Charter challenges slow things down—so why do governments keep relying on back-to-work legislation? Because it’s the quick fix, ending strikes today at the risk of bigger problems tomorrow.

A sudden 10% plunge in global gas demand—equivalent to a massive chunk of the world's supply—has turned the energy markets upside down. Companies are stuck in a state of uncertainty, hesitating on final LNG investments as markets shift faster than ever.

Is the government using back-to-work laws as a covert weapon to crush unions and silence workers? Instead of resolving conflicts, this legislation locks in binding arbitration, limits workers’ rights, and could threaten your freedom to protest.

Just a few years ago, hydrogen was the next big thing — but that optimism has collapsed.
Rising costs, project delays, and slow learning rates have pushed hydrogen into a niche role.
