""Canada is blessed with one of the biggest oil and gas reserves on the planet and has not only the opportunity, but the responsibility, to develop them and bolster global energy security," Baiton emphasized, calling for a shift in focus."
""Instead of seizing the moment and taking the mantle of that responsibility, we are focusing on things that add cost and make us less competitive," Baiton remarked, urging for a more strategic approach to energy development."

Lisa Baiton of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers emphasizes the need for Canada to develop its vast oil and gas reserves to enhance global energy security.
