Stefane Marion, chief economist at National Bank of Canada, hasn't been this optimistic about Canadian reindustrialization in more than a decade.

His case: Canada has a structural energy advantage that policy has kept it from using, and a recent federal change has opened the door.

Canadian businesses pay 60% less for electricity than the G7 average, and Canadian natural gas is among the cheapest in the world. Yet Canada has the smallest manufacturing sector in the G7, smaller than Ireland's. Whether the country acts on the opening is the harder question.

Rooted, CSV’s digital publication, sat down with Marion at the Spartan Controls Experience Industrial Innovation conference, and also heard from Nate Glubish, Alberta's Minister of Technology and Innovation. The province, he said, is months away from final investment decisions on gigawatt-scale projects, with data centre campuses among them.

CSV's future Gold Creek facility is designed to feed exactly that kind of build.

The plant would supply adjacent data centre campuses, recover sulphur for lithium and fertilizer supply chains, and ease Canada's reliance on U.S. condensate imports.

And a portion of revenue from the Gold Creek facility would go to a Creating Shared Value Fund, an arm's-length community committee model CSV’s Albright facility uses today, with money flowing to smaller rural and Indigenous communities further south.

Sarah Coleman, our communications lead and editor-in-chief of our digital publication, Rooted, attended Global Energy Show Canada in Calgary this week to get the pulse on what conversations are happening in energy at a local and global scale.

There was expected commentary around Canada as a resource nation, the push to export energy resources, and a scale-tipping focus on AI and data centres.

But what got our attention were the speakers who talked about addressing community impact first.

Andrew Robinson, CEO of Nisga'a Lisims Government - Nisga'a Nation, talked about what it actually takes for a project to earn trust in a community.

Chana Martineau, CEO of Alberta Indigenous Opportunities Corporation, made the case for staying in the hard conversations rather than around them.

Mike Shaw, VP of business development and commercial at ATCO described why community support has to come first on any major development.

And Karen Restoule, director of Indigenous affairs at Macdonald-Laurier Institute, challenged the room to step much further back from the problem before deciding they understand it.

Creating Shared Value is the idea that the strongest project decisions and the strongest community outcomes don't have to trade off against each other. These four voices, from very different positions in the industry, each described the same thing: the conversations that matter most don't happen at boardroom tables.

CSV has announced plans to build a fractionation facility.

We've built our reputation in northern Alberta with our extensive gas processing infrastructure where our teams carry projects from engineering through to long-term operations. This project marks a significant step downstream, helping to connect, expand and support our liquid infrastructure development in the Grande Prairie region while offering much needed egress to meet the growing propane and butane demand locally and internationally.

“This project enhances CSV’s continued infrastructure development in the Grande Prairie region and expands our portfolio into the NGL infrastructure business,” said Christopher Dutcher, EVP & Chief Operating Officer.

Our time at Forward Summit West reinforced that reconciliation needs to move from statements to practice.

This two-day event brought together Indigenous leaders and senior members from a variety of industries to advance Indigenous economic prosperity and reconciliation, and engage in meaningful dialogue to foster long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships.

Here are a few of the highlights we took from the conversations.

Kluane Adamek, a citizen of Kluane First Nation and chair of the Indigenous Advisory Council to the Major Projects Office, spoke about what this moment of major project development across the country asks of industry. "How do we really push all those who have responsibility, who are working with our people and communities, to do better? And not just to do better, but to really listen to where people are at."

Terri Crooks, First Nations treaty member of the Mistawasis Nêhiyawak and Production Manager at Finning Canada, on what that accountability looks like: "It's showing up and living what you're saying day after day. Not just when the cameras are on, or in the annual report. It's an everyday thing."

Deborah Green-Gopher, a Nēhiyaw iskwêw (Cree Woman) hailing from Kawacatoose and Piapot’s First Nations in Saskatchewan, and Director of Access and Belonging, Indigenous Relations, Banff Centre For Arts and Creativity, on what reconciliation actually requires: "Truth is not a one-time learning moment. It's an ongoing responsibility and accountability for all Canadians in this country. Once we know the truth, you're accountable for what you do next."

"Inclusion is often mistaken with visibility," said Green-Gopher. In energy, where projects shape communities for decades, knowing the difference and addressing the impact you make is part of the responsibility.

Our approach starts with listening. To history, to heritage, to the real impacts of what we build, both positive and negative. That's the foundation everything else is built on, and how we begin to create shared value.

Last week, more than 1,000 engineers, technologists, developers, and policymakers came to Calgary for Experience Industrial Innovation, a two-day conference hosted by Spartan Controls.

The agenda covered automation, infrastructure, and the future of industrial development in Western Canada.

A lot of the conversation kept coming back to the same question that's hard to avoid in Alberta right now: who's going to power the data centres, and what does it take to actually get them built?

“I’m excited about what’s coming because we’ve got so much skill and capability,” said Doug Ndegwa, President and CEO of Spartan Controls. “I think it’s a phenomenal time to be in Western Canada, and in the industries we serve.”

The pipeline of opportunity is full, but speakers also called for caution and care, saying the data centre industry has a lot to learn from oil and gas. Getting the community behind a project matters as much as the asset itself.

Hear more from Doug Ndegwa (Spartan Controls), Minister Nate Glubish, Darin Watson (Sovereign Digital Infrastructure), Chris Fralick (TransAlta and our CEO, Daniel Clarke, in our latest feature story in Rooted.

Five people sitting at a kitchen table can change how a gas plant gets built.

A business leader whose family has watched Grande Prairie move through 60 years of commodity cycles can change how a region thinks about what it means to actually build something that lasts.

A GM of a pro hockey team who didn't have the language for mental health early in his career, and helped build the tools his players now rely on, can change how an entire industry thinks about support.

A developer who treats community acceptance as part of the business case, not an afterthought, can change what's possible when major infrastructure comes to a region.

That's Creating Shared Value. Business performance and community outcomes aren't separate things. The relationship between them is where the strength comes from.

In this industry, we’ve gotten used to carrying a lot.

We carry the pace of the work, the pressure, the time away from home. And we carry the parts of life that don’t have anything to do with the job. Most of the time, it’s all happening at once.

What’s harder to admit is how often that weight goes unspoken. How easy it is to assume someone is fine because they keep showing up.

This week is Mental Health Week in Canada. The message is simple: stronger connections, better mental health. But the reality behind it is harder. Too many people are struggling quietly, and too often, we don’t ask.

That has to change.

At CSV, Buddy Up is part of how we operate. It gives our teams the tools to check in, start meaningful conversations, and recognize when someone might need support.

Having our employees trained is a strong start. But the impact grows when this mindset extends across the entire energy industry.

When we show up for each other, we strengthen more than individuals. We strengthen the teams around us, our communities, and everything we’re building, together.

Check in on your people.

“I hate that with a passion.”

That’s how Linda Side responds to Grande Prairie being called a boomtown, after decades of watching the region move through cycles.

From her perspective, the label never captured what was actually happening.

What’s taken shape in Grande Prairie isn’t the absence of volatility. It’s the presence of structure.

Municipalities that once competed for the same investment now advance major projects together. For companies operating in the region, that same approach shows up in how projects are carried forward.

More alignment early. Clearer roles. Value that’s shared, not extracted.

It’s the same approach we take at CSV, and part of why we believe projects hold up differently here.

We spoke with Linda, Rhonda Side, Jeremy Walker, Mayor Jackie Clayton, Christopher Dutcher, and MLA Nolan Dyck about how that structure gets built, and what most people don’t see from the outside.

Today is the National Day of Mourning.

We remember those who lost their lives, were injured, or became ill because of their work. We also recognize the families, friends, and communities who carry that with them.

For those of us in this industry, this hits close to home. Everyone understands what’s at stake.

At CSV, starting with care shows up in how we look out for one another, the decisions we make, and the moments we choose to speak up or step in.

That’s what safety is built on.

Today, we take a moment to remember and reflect on the role each of us plays in making sure the people beside us go home safe.
