Fatih Birol, head of the International Energy Agency, warns that trust and predictability have become as scarce as oil, positioning Canada as a potentially reliable energy partner amid the current crisis.

With global leaders increasingly wary of geopolitical risk, Canada’s steady centre‑ground politics contrast sharply with turmoil in the United States, Europe and elsewhere. If Canada can translate its predictability into decisive infrastructure and market policies, it could capture a pivotal role in global energy supply.
