Business leaders Deborah Yedlin and Lisa Baiton say Canada must accelerate oil and natural gas development and pipeline construction to drive economic growth, strengthen sovereignty and expand geopolitical influence amid global trade disruptions.

The pair argue that swift regulatory clarity and infrastructure expansion are essential to diversify export markets, unlock capital and secure long-term economic resilience.
