Our Guiding Principles

1. Preserve and strengthen policy frameworks that sustain today’s trusted, clean energy systems, ensuring the continued reliability and performance of existing infrastructure while preparing for future needs.
2. Prioritize secure, reliable, made-in-Canada energy solutions as essential drivers of Canada’s economic resilience, global competitiveness and export potential. Embrace the opportunity to strengthen North American energy preeminence by deepening strategic collaboration with the United States—leveraging integrated supply chains, and shared infrastructure to position Canada as a critical energy partner in advancing continental energy security.
3. Recognize the strategic value of safe, clean, affordable and reliable electricity—driven by a strong nuclear sector—as the backbone of Ontario’s integrated energy system and economic resilience and a key lever in realizing its potential as an energy superpower while also articulating the inherent benefits resulting from a clean grid (ex. clean air, job creation, competitive economic advantage).
4. Promote policies that attract investment, drive innovation and economy-wide decarbonization, and foster public-private collaboration, with an emphasis on energy transmission, nuclear energy, energy storage, distributed energy, critical minerals, manufacturing, medical isotopes, electrification (ex. transportation) and made-in-Canada technologies—with an overarching objective to create economically resilient and healthy communities across the country.
5. Advocate for policy solutions that advance the participation of Indigenous communities in energy and infrastructure projects—including policy measures like Indigenous loan guarantee programs at the provincial and federal levels of government—as a meaningful pathway to economic reconciliation.
