venezulian flag and oil rig
Jean-Thomas Bernard, Visiting Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Ottawa, recently published an opinion piece in the Quebec daily La Presse examining current energy and geopolitical issues linked to the potential return of Venezuelan oil to global markets.

In the article, titled Retour du pétrole vénézuélien : encore plus de doutes sur le projet d’oléoduc canadien, Bernard analyzes the possible economic implications of a renewed increase in oil production in Venezuela. The piece explores how this development could affect global energy markets and ongoing discussions surrounding new pipeline projects in Canada.

A recognized specialist in energy economics, Bernard provides insight into the economic and strategic uncertainties surrounding these infrastructure projects in a global context marked by energy price volatility and shifting demand.

Through this contribution in La Presse, Bernard actively contributes to the public discussion on energy policy and the economic outlook of the oil sector.
