Vancouver

Your move, Enbridge

by Max Fawcett

Yesterday was a busy day for Patrick Daniel, the CEO of Enbridge Inc., but while he may have spent most of it dealing with the fallout from the company’s fourth-quarter earnings report from 2010, which saw profits rise 9 per cent but miss analyst expectations, it couldn’t have been the only thing on his mind. Earnings, schmernings; it was Kinder Morgan’s announcement that it intends to expand its pipeline that runs from Edmonton’s refineries to Vancouver’s deep-water port that likely dominated the day for Daniel. >

CEOs need to get in front of the oil sands story

Top guns of industry can put a face on Alberta’s biggest economic engine

By Paul Marck

If you are a CEO in this province, you need to get out in front of the oil sands story and start telling it to the Canadian public, your customers, and the rest of the world. No more excuses, no more hiding behind the skirts of industry associations and corporate flaks. It is up to you, Mr. or Ms. CEO, to take the message to the Empire Club, the Vancouver and Montreal boards of trade and even to the local Rotary meeting. And while you are at it, book some face time with your American contacts as well.
