Monarchist or republican? The age-old tension has fueled fresh royal polls and debates around the globe in recent months – in anticipation of Saturday’s crowning of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey. Commonwealth countries, in particular, have been assessing their allegiance to the British monarch since the passing of Queen Elizabeth II last year. Jamaica wants a referendum on the matter by 2025, several countries are debating whether to include Charles on their currency, and New Zealand’s prime minister has said his country will probably lean republican one day. We look here at how Canada views its ties to the crown.

North America is facing an energy emergency, says Enbridge CEO Gregory Ebel

Enbridge

Getting access to energy, whether it's renewables, oil and gas, or other sources, is increasingly challenging because of long lead times to get things built in the US and elsewhere, says Gregory Ebel, Enbridge's CEO, on the latest "Energized: The Future of Energy" podcast episode. And it's not just problems with access. “There is an energy emergency, if we're not careful, when it comes to price,” says Ebel. “There's definitely an energy emergency when it comes to having a resilient grid, whether it's a pipeline grid, an electric grid. That's something I think people have to take seriously.” Ebel believes that finding "the intersection of rhetoric, policy, and capital" can lead to affordability and profitability for the energy transition. His discussion with host JJ Ramberg and Arjun Murti, founder of the energy transition newsletter Super-Spiked, addresses where North America stands in the global energy transition, the implication of the revised energy policies by President Trump, and the potential consequences of tariffs and trade tension on the energy sector. “Energized: The Future of Energy” is a podcast series produced by GZERO Media's Blue Circle Studios in partnership with Enbridge.
