Description

First published in 1980, a crucial time in the development of Canada's energy industry, the author argues forcefully for a "made in Canada" approach to energy development.
Barry Beale maintained that the key to assuring that the Canadian economy benefited from investment in the energy sector lay in the ability of industry and government to control technology and to play a leading role in the engineering of energy mega-projects.
Energy and Industry presented a forceful argument for a national energy development plan at a time when such an approach was increasingly contentious in Canadian politics.
