Competing visions for the future of Ontario’s grid are clashing at a critical time when demand for electricity is projected to soar.
The competing visions for the future of Ontario’s grid are clashing at a critical time when demand for electricity is projected to soar. People, governments and businesses are switching en masse to electricity as a power source for cars, heating and heavy industry in an effort to lower carbon emissions and avoid the worst effects of climate change.
As the federal government finalizes its Clean Energy Standard, which will mandate net-zero electricity from coast to coast by 2035, the report says Ontario needs to start making significant investments in its grid, especially considering the lengthy timelines required to build the transmission, generation and storage required to simultaneously meet demand and reduce emissions.
With widespread demand for renewables from both households and businesses, and a significant amount of capital that wants to invest in renewable generation, Lusney said, Ontario has a limited time to harness these forces to meet our climate goals.

Plant seeds beyond agriculture to shore up the fertilizer sectorFeeding ourselves can be a task out of necessity, or an activity we look forward to. Something we share with loved ones, or in solitude. What we eat can occupy our thoughts, but how many Canadians stop to think about the food for our food? Just like humans need nutrients to allow our bodies to grow and perform our essential functions, so do plants. To survive and grow, plants require a balanced supply of nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and sulphur in the soil. As plants extract these nutrients from the soil, they must be replenished through fertilizers, manure, and compost. Fertilizer helps farmers grow the food necessary to feed our growing population by increasing yields, playing an important role in food security. Since 1960, the world’s food production has more than doubled thanks to modern fertilizer. It is estimated that half of global food supply is directly linked to the use of fertilizer. The world’s population just hit eight billion and is expected to grow to 9.7 billion by 2050. We cannot feed these mouths without fertilizer. There are not a lot of things we can say we are No. 1 at, but we are the No. 1 producer of potash fertilizer in the world. It is a critical mineral only found in a few countries, and we have 45 per cent of the world’s potash reserves in Saskatchewan. Canada also produces a significant amount of nitrogen fertilizer, making us the third-largest producer of fertilizers in the world. We trade our fertilizer with more than 75 countries, representing two per cent of all Canadian exports. Over the last few years, we have seen several issues affect the trade of fertilizer: COVID-19, trade disputes, the war in Ukraine, to name a few. As a world that has become reliant on globalization tries to overcome the impact of these events, the idea of friend-shoring has emerged. Celebrated by Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, it is a trade philosophy that aims to insulate global supply chains from external disruption by streng
