Message from the Minister of Energy

Energy and global financial markets move up and down. We are used to a lot of flux. Economic growth is not a measured climb, but rather a series of ultimately ascending zigs and zags. Over short and medium term horizons, this volatility can tempt course changes.

The ultimate horizon commanded by this strategy is long-term. Global demand for energy is expected to rise over this period, while the world experiences an increasingly constrained supply. Finally, the imperative to have clean energy will continue to climb. Looking beyond today’s market lather, we must exert courage to plot the steadfast course that will ultimately serve Albertans best.

Alberta is resourceful. Albertans are responsible. This strategy delineates a trajectory that will best reward us. It defines our energy future and puts Albertans back in the driver’s seat.
