On May 5, 2025, Energy Connections Canada (ECC) sent the enclosed letter to Prime Minister Carney stating,
“Canada faces a challenge seizing its potential due to barriers building needed energy infrastructure.
These are recent challenges. We believe they are resolvable. Broadly speaking, the challenges relate to ‘regulatory churn and routing’, but they are significant enough to impact investor confidence in our industry and in our country.
As you are aware, Canadians, Canadian premiers and business leaders have expressed strong support for building energy infrastructure as a means to fortify our economy and to find new export markets. To seize upon that momentum and the opportunity, we need to rebuild investor confidence in Canada’s pipeline industry.”
The letter includes 11 recommendations that the federal government could adopt to rebuild investor confidence.
ECC is pleased to see strong commitments from Prime Minister Carney and his cabinet to move from “delay to delivery”.
ECC looks forward to working with the Government of Canada on our shared goals.
