"huge economic opportunity" should be the main point in this post.

Mark Carney, like many, are looking at the future. Oil and Gas isn't leaving out supply chain any time soon, but we are being steam rolled by China on future energy tech.

The US is too, don't get me wrong, and I thought the Green New Deal was a great step in building demand for strong renewable industries.

Alberta has a crap ton of capital, engineers, project management, and construction skills that would go a long way in building a new energy future. And some companies have largely taken that challenge on (windmill views notwithstanding).

I don't think someone like Carney saying "Hey, there is a transition coming, and we need to get ahead of it" is wrong or bad.
