The Corporate Mapping Project is a collaborative research project between the University of Victoria, CCPA BC, CCPA SK and the Parkland Institute. It focuses on “mapping” how power and influence play out in the oil, gas and coal industries of BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan. We also map the wider connections that link Western Canada’s fossil fuel sector to other sectors of the economy (both national and global) and to other parts of society (governments and other public institutions, think tanks and lobby groups, etc).
