Oil may have take a big price leap in 2007, but ironically many of big players in Canada's oilpatch said they'd cut spending in reaction to Alberta Premier Ed Stelmach's announcement that provincial royalties on oil and gas would increase. Others, especially in the oilsands, said they'll likely increase spending in the new year. The restructuring Big Three car makers -- General Motors, Ford and Chrysler -- have already cut thousands of jobs in Canada, with spillover effects on their suppliers, mainly in Ontario. And it isn't over - because of the U.S. wide housing slump and the squeeze on credit, many auto industry analysts are predicting U.S. sales of just over 16 million vehicles this year. Many say that is likely to drop by 500,000 or more in 2008, the worst performance since 1998. T...

There are so many opportunities for careers in oil and gas -- it's an exciting industry to be part of," [Lynn Merrithew] said. "The industry didn't have a very good reputation for keeping people and, when it got them, they didn't want to stay. "We're trying to be more innovative," [Lori Ackerman] said. "Businesses are working so hard, they don't have time to be innovative. If we can recruit more people, and retain them year-round, we will build a stronger community. We want to build a community of people who want to stay here. "We need to work on how to make the community more attractive," [Sara Conkin] said.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. -- Early versions of the Chevrolet Volt's battery packs are powerful enough to run the high-stakes rechargeable car, but dozens of issues remain before General Motors Corp. can start selling the revolutionary vehicle in 2010 as planned. Although GM has promised to begin selling the Volt in a little more than two years, experts wonder if it will be ready in time, whether enough batteries will be available to sell the cars in significant numbers, and whether the cost can be reduced to make the car affordable to the masses. GM has said the Volt will cost $30,000 to $40,000, and that it expects to sell 100,000 per year starting in 2012. The company's international operations have helped it weather the impact of a restructuring North American auto sector, where the so-ca...

China has experienced pressing energy shortages in recent years, and Beijing has intensified its efforts to secure China's energy supply through both increased domestic production and external expansion. In this paper, I first analyze China's global quest for energy by looking at the correlation between China's economic growth and its energy security concerns. I then examine the implications of China's "go-out" strategy through two sets of case studies. I argue that China's global search for energy is primarily driven by its rapid economic growth, out of insecurity rather than a master plan to dominate the world, and that China's energy security issues have multiple implications beyond simple economic concerns. Finally, I recommend a forward-looking engagement policy to be adapted by Ca...
