Most Canadians care about climate change and want to see real progress on the energy transition. But getting there takes more than technical solutions – it requires good leadership that can bring people together and turn good ideas into action.

Building a new energy future means supporting workers and communities, listening to those most affected, and making sure the benefits of the transition reach everyone. Because energy that’s good for the planet should also be good for people.

Join us for a lively conversation with three climate leaders: Alex Lemay, Annabelle Liao, and Megan Bennett as they dig into what good leadership looks like when it comes to reshaping how we power our lives.

We’ll explore:

  • Energy that’s affordable for everyone: From home retrofits to electrification to simply understanding your energy bill, making sure the energy transition works for households and the planet.
  • Who gets a seat at the table: The shift in how we produce and consume energy should happen with and for people, not around them – ensuring voices from rural communities, Indigenous communities, lower-income households, oil and gas workers, and others help shape the path forward.
  • Turning support into action: Programs, partnerships, and actions that can help everyday Canadians, youth, and communities step into leadership roles within the energy transition.
