This week, you will hear from four innovative, multi-university teams of graduate students who will ask you to consider how this next generation of science, engineering and policy leaders will think about energy.

It is an independent provincial corporation that is primarily supported by the Government of Alberta’s industry-funded Technology, Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) fund. CEC Research Briefs: A ‘snapshot’ Canadian Energy Centre (CEC) Research Briefs are contextual explanations of data as they relate to Canadian energy. They are statistical ‘snapshots’ and released periodically to provide context on energy issues for investors, policymakers, and the public. The source of profiled data depends on the specific issue, necessary context, and each brief. Sources are given in a manner accessible for a non-academic audience. A note on language and descriptions The data in this Brief are derived from Statistics Canada (2018), Aboriginal Population Profile, 2016 Census. For ease of reference to source data, the term ‘Aboriginal’ is used to correlate with the original Statistics Canada census terms. First Nations is also used to identify both individuals but also communities, i.e., a specific First Nation community such as Fort McKay First Nation.
