Convenience store companies want to discuss a recent New Brunswick bill that would reduce the price of gas for consumers and increase the fees for the stations that sell it. South Bow, the crude oil spinoff of TC Energy, is lobbying in Alberta about pipeline infrastructure after the election of Donald Trump in the U.S. could resurrect its troubled Keystone XL project. And after a quarter-of-a-billion-dollar cash infusion from the federal government, renewable energy companies in Saskatchewan want in. 

Those are just some of the insights from the IJF’s roundup of lobbying registrations at the federal level and in every province across Canada. Each week, the IJF publishes data from our four lobbying databases showing who wants laws changed and who is asking for government money. Think of it as your weekly dose of public policy news before it becomes news.
