How can you possibly say this given what we're seeing in the world right now, with Germany, France, Austria and others going back to coal because they don't have adequate access to gas?
The demand will be there, it's a matter of if Canada wants to be there and take some of that market share with its ethically produced, emissions conscious resources, or whether Canada wants to forego a significant source of funding for future infrastructure, health care, etc.
You can't just focus on the supply side of the equation and completely ignore the demand curve. And if there's one thing we've learned over COVID and beyond, it's that energy demand is very inelastic.
