The anti-greenwashing portion of the federal bill C-59 has clear implications for claims made by oil and gas companies about carbon capture, utilization and storage technology

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers says it has submitted formal recommendations to the federal Competition Bureau, which is in the process of developing guidance around the new legislation.

Fossil fuel companies and industry organizations use revolving doors of employment, closed-door meetings, casual encounters, and personal relationships to expand their influence on laws and policies, especially when it comes to climate change. 

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers says it commissioned a study by S&P Global Commodity Insights to see what the economic impact of various proposed emissions-reducing policies would be on Canada's conventional, or non-oilsands, oil and gas producers.

In the months before the federal budget was released, scores of meetings were recorded between fossil fuel industry representatives and the federal government. With a key ask from climate advocates ignored, who is Finance Canada listening to?

Canadian energy producers say they are prepared and ready for what could be another spring and summer of drought and wildfires in Western Canada.

The analysis by industry group Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers of the most recently available federal production and emissions data shows emissions from the country's conventional oil and natural gas sector fell 24 per cent in the last decade.

As climate action gains traction across Canada, a quiet feud is brewing in the oilsands over the best way to continue extracting fossil fuels in an era of decarbonization.

In an era of decarbonization, the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers appears to be losing its influence on federal policy. But that doesn't mean Big Oil is on the way out.

The net-zero greenhouse gas emissions pledges touted by Canada’s oil and gas sector ring false as the industry continues its push to expand fossil fuel use and oppose climate policy, a new analysis states. 

There is no room for ambiguity in the face of the layered crises of climate change, economic strain and a pandemic, writes Anjali Appadurai. We must pick a side.

As environmental groups urge the federal government to move quickly with an aggressive cap on emissions from the country's oil and gas sector, the industry itself says such a move could actually slow down the sector's own decarbonization efforts.

Canada’s most powerful oil lobby group is paying for Facebook ads urging Canadians to oppose greenhouse gas emissions limits on the oil and gas industry. Only the ads aren't coming from the lobby group — they're posted by a self-described “grassroots” oil and gas advocacy group. 

The officially disclosed carbon footprints of Canada’s largest oil companies could balloon in size if tough new climate rules proposed earlier this year by a U.S. regulator come into effect.

Earlier this week, Edmonton-Griesbach’s MP demanded answers from an oil and gas industry representative on whether companies intend to cough up an estimated $253 million owed to rural communities in Alberta.
