Jason Kenney warns that Canada continues to fall behind, despite high energy prices bolstering the country's vital energy sector. He emphasizes that significant work remains to turn the Canadian economy around, highlighting concerns about growth attitudes, particularly in British Columbia.

Kenney previously cautioned that shifting away from oil and gas could jeopardize the country’s economic stability, with Canada’s $200 billion in exports at risk. He also reported that Alberta could see significant economic benefits by remaining part of Canada, citing energy sector momentum in the province in a recent analysis. Both points have underscored his focus on energy’s role in national growth.
