‘Just Transition’ has wrong name, right idea on jobs: Cenovus head

The term ‘Just Transition’ has sparked heated debate. The Liberal government says the transition is necessary to prepare workers for sustainable jobs and meet Canada’s goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. But Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says it will destroy Albertans’ livelihoods. ‘The West Block’ host Mercedes Stephenson spoke with Alex Pourbaix, president of Canadian energy giant Cenovus, and Kendall Dilling, president of Pathways Alliance, a consortium representing 95 per cent of Canada’s oil and gas companies, about ‘Just Transition’ and the future of the oil and gas industry.
