The World Bank initiative attacks the oil and gas industry, one of Canada’s top economic drivers, and backs ‘efforts to address gender equality gaps in the energy and blue economy sectors.’
(LifeSiteNews) — Canada’s federal government under Prime Minister Mark Carney has pledged to spend a whopping $180 million of taxpayer money on a woke World Bank climate initiative to end reliance on oil and gas and address “gender equality gaps.”
Listed on Canada’s federal government’s grants and contributions website, the money was given to the World Bank through what is known as the “World Bank Clean Energy and Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Resilience Facility (CESR).”
Dated March 13, 2026, the agreement ended on March 31; however, it listed funds given totaling $180 million to the “IBRD Trust Funds — World Bank.”
The money comes from the Global Affairs Canada’s International Development Assistance program, which says it gives money to “reducing poverty for those living in countries where [the organization] engages in international development.”
However, one of the goals of the grants is, in essence, to attack one of Canada’s main economic drivers, its oil and gas industry, and with it the province of Alberta.
The grant notes a goal to “accelerate the shift away from fossil fuels” by focusing on so-called renewable energy. Worryingly, the grant also states as a goal to support “efforts to address gender equality gaps in the energy and blue economy sectors.”
It’s no secret that the current Liberal government under Carney is fully on board with the woke “green” agenda. Indeed, Carney worked as the former governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England and spent many years promoting green financial agendas.
