	National Energy Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The National Energy Program (NEP) was an energy policy of the Government of Canada.
		It was enacted by the government of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau in 1980, and administered by the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources.
		The program was extremely unpopular in Western Canada, where most of Canada's oil is produced, and heightened distrust of the federal government, especially in Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

		To reach these objectives, the government adopted a wide-ranging set of measures.

	conservation of energy - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about conservation of energy
		This is true outside of chemical reactions; for example the chemical energy of a battery is transferred into the electrical energy in a circuit, which can then be transferred into the heat and light energy of a bulb, but the total amount of energy is constant.
		In a chemical reaction, for each component there may be changes in energy due to change of physical state, changes in the nature of chemical bonds, and either an input or output of energy.
		Principle that states that in a chemical reaction, the total amount of energy in the system remains unchanged.

		These two proposed Acts were administered by separate organizations until July 1982, when the Acts were promulgated, and the administration brought together under PIA.
		After the program was launched, it became evident that the provinces and territories were not able to develop the necessary policies and procedures as quickly as had been envisaged or to assign the resources and staff.

	The National Energy Program
		The National Energy Program was structured on three main policy goals: energy security, redistributing revenue, and Canadianization.
		The first goal of the NEP was to have Canadian energy security by 1990, but focussed primarily on oil because Canada was self-sufficient in natural gas.
		A decision was reached that in fact the NEP did contradict principles of national treatment leaving Canada with little choice but to modify the NEP to allow for Canadian goods and services to be assessed on a competitive basis with other suppliers first.
