Ian Sanderson
Ian Sanderson is a senior analyst at the Pembina Institute, an environmental think tank in Canada. He has been vocal about the economic risks associated with new oil pipeline projects, particularly the West Coast pipeline proposed to transport Alberta's crude oil. Sanderson emphasizes that the private sector's reluctance to invest should not result in taxpayers bearing the financial burden of such projects, and he advocates for diversifying the economy away from fossil fuels amid concerns about long-term demand and environmental impacts.
