CEOs and senior executives from Cenovus Energy, Enbridge, Imperial Oil, Shell Canada and Suncor Energy are slated to appear by videoconference

companies are expected to testify before a parliamentary committee Thursday afternoon about their efforts to reduce the sector’s greenhouse gas emissions.Their appearance follows an April motion by NDP environment critic Laurel Collins, who called on the executives to appear before the committee to explain their companies’ impact on climate change.

The oil and gas sector is Canada’s largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for almost a third of the country’s total emissions, and they continue to rise, largely because of increased production from Alberta’s oil sands. The federal government has proposed a legislated cap on emissions from the oil and gas sector, something the industry opposes.
