Canadian Energy Person 2013
The Canadian Energy Person of the Year Award was established by the Energy Council of Canada, supported by the sectoral energy associations of Canada, to recognize and pay tribute to leaders in Canada who have made a significant impact at both the national and international level with respect to energy.
The Canadian Energy Person of the Year serves as an ambassador of our nation’s energy sector, demonstrating a clear vision and commitment to fostering the sustainable use and development of energy for the benefit of all.
The Canadian Energy Person of the Year is nominated for this prestigious annual award based on their remarkable accomplishments in the energy and business or government sectors, as well as the community at large. One of their foremost characteristics is their strong sense of social responsibility and belief in giving back to the community by focusing on environmental and social issues, and economic development.
