The economic impacts of COVID-19 have been extreme–Canada’s oil and natural gas industry can help drive the recovery.
Job losses, business closures and mounting debt: the economic toll of COVID-19 has yet to be fully assessed. Canada’s economic recovery will depend on a united effort. As one of Canada’s largest industries, supplying our largest export product, and a major source of investment and tax revenue, responsible Canadian oil and natural gas can and must play a key role in supporting good jobs and generating economic growth to benefit all Canadians.
Literally thousands of products you use and depend on are made or made better using petrochemicals: materials that come from oil and natural gas.
Canadian liquefied natural gas could lead the way to decreasing global greenhouse gas emissions.

Of Canada’s five largest industries, oil and natural gas claims the fewest deductions compared to taxes paid.
Data from the Government of Canada’s National Inventory Report shows greenhouse gas emissions intensity has fallen significantly in Canada’s oil sands.
