Ontario’s Economic Renaissance
Ontario’s location at the heart of the North American energy market with easy access to new sources of clean, affordable natural gas is a strategic opportunity that should not be lost. The paper explored five specific ways in which natural gas could be leveraged to help Ontario compete more effectively with neighbouring jurisdictions which are already experiencing a manufacturing renaissance on the strength of low cost natural gas. The paper put forward a clear set of recommendations for policy action to be taken by government to seize these opportunities.
