Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used his speech to the CERAWeek conference in Houston to say he will succeed on the energy file where his father and former prime minister Stephen Harper failed. Trudeau said the National Energy Program hurt both growth and jobs while the Conservatives failed to understand that the economy and climate change are linked. "Nothing is more essential to the U.S. economy than access to a secure, reliable source of energy. Canada is that source," Trudeau said. Earlier Thursday, Trudeau took part in a roundtable to discuss the future of energy with clean technology companies and leaders in the energy field.
