Markham interviews Brendan Frank, director of policy and strategy for Clean Prosperity, and lead author of the new report, Nuclear for a Net-Zero Canada.

Three Lethbridge cops are off the hook for using police databases to improperly access a politician's personal information, despite Alberta's police watchdog recommending charges.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg. So why isn't the Crown charging the officers?  3:35 | Shannon Phillips shoots from the hip re: the latest developments in the Lethbridge Police story.

Alberta's opportunity to contribute to global solutions in agriculture, energy, and health is immense. Seizing this opportunity will take big ideas, lots of collaboration, and a little “can do” attitude.

Our guest is Adam Sweet, the Director for Western Canada at Clean Prosperity to discuss the changing global investment landscape and how Alberta can use its superpower—the Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) Regulation—to not just play the game but win. Adam Sweet's discussion paper can be read here: http://bit.ly/3h5Lb0k About Adam Sweet Adam Sweet is Clean Prosperity's Director for Western Canada.

Is it even possible to succeed in politics without being nasty? Thomas Lukaszuk and Brian Mason locked horns at the Alberta Legislature for years. In one well-publicized exchange, after Mason described the PC deputy premier as a "decorative hood ornament" in Premier Alison Redford's government, Lukaszuk suggested the NDP leader was more like the "Legislature's tail pipe".

Is such a relationship even realistic anymore?  4:20 | Lukaszuk and Mason reunite on Real Talk to discuss the past, present, and future of Alberta politics.

President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act may be good news for the clean energy sector, but what does it mean for Canada? That's a more complex question. On one hand, some aspects of it are likely to benefit Canadian businesses. But much of the funding included in the legislation is reserved for American producers and could make it difficult for Canada to build its own domestic clean energy sector. If clean energy is going to be a big part of developed economies in the future, that's a problem. On this episode, Michael Bernstein, the Executive Director of Clean Prosperity, joins us to break down what's in the Inflation Reduction Act, what it means for Canada, and why he thinks Canada needs to develop its own clean industrial strategy that's tailored for our strengths. ----- Links: More episodes of Free Lunch by The Peak: https://readthepeak.com/shows/free-lunch Follow Taylor on Twitter: @taylorscollon Follow Sarah on Twitter: @sarahbartnicka Subscribe to The Peak's daily business newsletter: https://readthepeak.com/b/the-peak/subscribe

ON Point host, Alex Pierson, is joined by Executive Director of Canadians for Clean Prosperity, Mark Cameron, to talk about carbon taxes. A report from the independent group raised questions after it stated that carbon taxes could actually put more money in Canadian's pockets.

In this episode, we’re talking about talking about carbon taxes. What do people know about carbon taxes? What do they think about them? What is it like talking about them across the political divide? Host Nick Martin talks with Mark Cameron from Canadians for Clean Prosperity, former policy director for Prime Minister Harper and a conservative who supports putting a price on carbon. Then he sits down with Dale Beugin from the Ecofiscal Commission to talk about the public perceptions of carbon taxes. Meanwhile, What the West hits downtown Calgary with office pup Churchill to talk to everyday Calgarians about what they think about carbon taxes.

Guest: Mark Cameron. The carbon tax was a pillar of Patrick Brown's PC platform, but newly elected leader Doug Ford has vowed to scrap it. Conservatives have a complex relationship with climate change, and nobody knows that better than Mark Cameron, executive director of Canadians for Clean Prosperity, and former policy director for prime minister Stephen Harper.
