Oil sands lobby group facing Competition Act complaint over false and misleading claims.
By Anupriya Dasgupta
A coalition of Canada’s six largest oil sands companies is facing a new complaint with the Competition Bureau for an advertising campaign that Greenpeace Canada says is spreading dangerous climate disinformation.
In Pathways Alliance’s recent “let’s clear the air” campaign that launched in August 2022, the coalition — which includes Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., Cenovus Energy, ConocoPhillips Canada, Imperial, MEG Energy, and Suncor Energy — is depicted as a climate leader, taking steps to address the climate crisis.
