New today: Carbon price rebates are officially rebranded and Albertans are set to pocket the biggest cash backs this year. nationalobserver.com/2024/02/14/new…

Here are the estimates. Alberta and Sask are leading the charge against Ottawa, even as people in those provinces receive more back than anyone else. Meanwhile, in Atlantic Canada (which predominately uses heating oil that had an exemption applied) rebates are down from last year

It's hard to come to a conclusion other than Danielle Smith is trying to kill renewables in their crib. Alberta used to be a leader in renewables, now 75% of the province is off the table, and all clean electricity projects face a labyrinth of red tape. nationalobserver.com/2024/02/29/new…

We're launching a new series at @NatObserver about the race to build clean power grids, and the politics threatening to derail an essential step to decarbonization. This first piece is a big picture look, and proposes a buddy system approach. nationalobserver.com/2024/04/23/ana…

Congrats to Christopher Hatch and the @NatObserver team! "Zero Carbon" is nominated for Best Editorial Newsletter. #DPA24 digitalpublishingawards.ca/2024nominees

Another summer is nearing, and workers in Canada lack measures to protect them from the heat. I spoke with workers, advocates, and unions about heat protections for workers + the call for a maximum temp policy. For @NatObserver nationalobserver.com/2024/05/22/new…

Looking for a source for a story on Dark NL, a decade later. Do you, or someone you know, have a personal story about the outages you'd be willing to share? Please reach out if so! For a story for @NatObserver.

last week for @NatObserver

In this moment it's crucial to put climate change and how we must adapt at the forefront. It will cost $66 billion between now and the end of the century to help Ontario’s public buildings deal with extreme rainfall, extreme heat and freeze-thaw cycles. nationalobserver.com/2024/07/16/new…

This illuminating story by @NatObserver's Cloe Logan is a must-read. She digs into the DFO's bizarre decision to reopen the N.L. cod fishery and how climate change was (or wasn't) part of the govt's calculus. nationalobserver.com/2024/07/17/new…

New from me & Cloe Logan: Trudeau’s decision to slap Chinese EV manufacturers with new tariffs will slow the adoption of electric vehicle sales in Canada, jeopardizing climate goals and making it more expensive for consumers, say experts. nationalobserver.com/2024/08/27/new…

From last week: Newfoundland and Labrador has a lofty goal of doubling offshore oil production by the end of the decade, but exploration efforts that revealed two unsuccessful wells further call that target into question. For @NatObserver nationalobserver.com/2024/09/18/new…

NEW from Cloe Logan: A new anonymous group on the East Coast is pushing people in the region to sign a petition that claims to support Canadian energy in Atlantic Canada — but is actually shilling only for oil and gas. nationalobserver.com/2024/10/03/new…

Zero shot Feds recoup the billions spent on TMX. The political calculus on TMX is clearly this is a boondoggle and if after the election Liberals are in power they can deal with the headache of selling at a loss... or they've made it Poilievre's problem. nationalobserver.com/2024/11/05/new…

I have made the swap!! Find me on bluesky: @cloelogan.bsky.social 👋

Briefly popping back on here to share the 1st story from a new series Canada's National Observer is launching today on ice roads. This one focuses on the drive between Moosonee + Fort Albany along the James Bay Winter Road. nationalobserver.com/2025/04/05/new…

I dug into the federal gov's off diesel goal by 2030 for remote Indigenous communities. That goal was stated as a commitment, but a briefing note I obtained shows the feds never believed it could meet the target — considering it, rather, as “directional.” nationalobserver.com/2025/09/25/new…
