Is the electric vehicle revolution all hype? Is Canada underestimating its role in the global energy future?

In this episode of Power Struggle, Stewart Muir is joined by world-renowned energy economist Dr. Anas Alhajji, who breaks down why the "end of oil" is far from reality — and why Canada’s oil sands and natural gas are more vital than ever.

From flawed EV stats out of China to the $18 trillion investment gap in global oil and gas, Dr. Alhajji challenges the forecasts shaping public policy and investor decisions. He explains why hybrid vehicles are the real trend, how energy demand is skyrocketing due to urbanization, immigration, and AI — and why Canada is poised to lead, if it seizes the moment.

He helped build the foundation of Canada’s LNG industry. Now he’s warning what happens if we don’t act.

In this episode of Power Struggle, Stewart Muir sits down with David Keane, former President of the BC LNG Alliance and Woodfibre LNG, to unpack the global rise of liquefied natural gas—and why Canada is falling behind.

With decades of experience in international energy, Keane offers a candid take on everything from Indigenous partnerships to emissions intensity, investor confidence, and the cost of political delay.

• What’s stopping Canada from becoming a global LNG player?
• Why is U.S. gas dominating the market?
• And what happens when our resources are sold at a discount—while the world still needs them?

If you care about responsible development, economic opportunity, and climate realism, don’t miss this one.

What if the future of clean energy isn’t about replacing fossil fuels — but building on what already works?

In this new episode of Power Struggle, chemical engineer and hydrogen advocate Matthew Klippenstein joins host Stewart Muir for a refreshingly honest conversation about Canada’s energy future. They explore why only 29% of hydrogen projects succeed, why natural gas is still essential for a stable grid, and why the energy transition isn’t a “clean vs. dirty” debate — it’s about resilience, realism, and respect.

From the January 2024 cold snap to dispatchable power and the future of oil sands as carbon fiber, this conversation cuts through the noise to offer grounded, forward-thinking insights for those serious about building sustainable systems.
