	National Energy Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The National Energy Program (NEP) was an energy policy of the Government of Canada.
		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.
		It was enacted by the government of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau in 1980, and administered by the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources.

	National Energy Program
		The National Energy Program (NEP) was introduced on 28 October 1980 as part of the first Liberal budget after the 1980 election.
		Although the NEP did reduce Canadian dependence on oil and foreign ownership of the oil industry, its chief legacy was one of distrust of the federal government by the western provinces.
		The NEP, one of the most sweeping government policies ever undertaken in Canada, was dismantled by the Progressive Conservatives after their 1984 election victory.

	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.
		The physical organization, its decay, the indestructibility of matter, the law of the conservation of energy, evolution, were the words which usurped the place of his old belief.

	1983 Report of the Auditor General of Canada - Chapter 9
		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.
		We believe that, as experience with the program increases, the program should, by design, evolve to a point where the application of regulations is the rule and where the number of precedents and the need for the exercise of ministerial discretion are reduced.
		With the NEP announcement in October 1980, CHIP was increased in size to $2.2 billion, and program management responsibility was immediately transferred to EMR, with financial responsibility to be transferred 1 April 1981.

	The National Energy Program
		The problems that arose during the early 1980's between the United States and Canada over the National Energy Program stemmed not from a simple difference in opinion, but from ineffective management of the relationship.
		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.

	The National Energy Program
		The National Energy Program (NEP) was introduced on October 28, 1980 by the Honourable Marc Lalonde.
		The NEP is often cited as an example of federal government discrimination, which increased feelings of western alienation and led to the creation of many western separatist groups.
		Third, Albertans were angered by the NEP due to the fact that a significant number of oil companies left the province of Alberta, leaving many Albertans unemployed.

	Biomass Program: National Energy Security
		This less than 2% of the world's known oil reserves (EIA International Energy Outlook 2003, Table 11).
		As sources of domestic oil supplies disappear, the nation's increasing reliance on imported oil makes the United States vulnerable to oil supply disruptions, and threatens America's economic and energy security.
		In the long term, promoting energy efficiency and producing and using fuels from renewable, domestic biomass resources—particularly in the transportation sector—will ease our dependence on foreign oil imports and improve our nation's energy security.

	Alberta can save us all Don't even think about another national energy program. The province's wealth is not the 'elephant in the room,' says TODD HIRSCH - workopolis.com
		But this year marks another milestone in Alberta-- one that will not be marked with cake or parties: the 25th anniversary of the despised national energy program, a set of policies conceived by the Trudeau government to address soaring energy prices and the growing imbalance of resource wealth among the country's regions.
		Through the accord, a portion of the cash derived from energy resources would be pooled and redistributed among the western provinces for investment in major energy projects.
		This would increase the supply of energy for markets in Central Canada, the United States and around the world.

		When it came to writing his National Energy Program, Vice President Cheney sent two aides to hold hundreds of meetings with any political forces who wanted "input." But the real details of this plan were hammered out in a series of ruling class conferences conducted by Cheney personally.
		This "national energy plan" is a plan for the larger capitalist class that was drawn, from start to finish, from the wish list of the monopoly energy corporations.
		They insist there is a desperate "energy crisis" that they are solving (even though their proposals will have no effect at all on the rolling blackouts in California or the price increases in gasoline and home heating).
