Alberta’s ongoing economic recovery plan depends heavily on energy, infrastructure, and private and public sector investment. However, it’s increasingly clear demands for greater sustainability, accountability, and transparency shape the types of projects that eventually move forward — as well as the costs and concessions required to bring these to fruition.

MNP’s Germaine Conacher and Edward Olson recently sat down with the Crownsmen Show podcast to discuss the changing regulatory landscape and top of mind factors for government and industry. Our advisors discuss the Duty to Consult; the rapidly evolving environment, social, and governance (ESG) landscape; and steps businesses can take now to support the province for years to come.
