The Andrew Carter Morning Show with Ken Connors (Friday March 13, 2026)

With tensions in the Middle East raising concerns about global oil supply, many experts are asking whether energy shocks like this could accelerate the shift to cleaner power. While countries in Asia rely heavily on oil from the Persian Gulf, Canada produces a lot of its own energy but we’re still tied to global oil prices that affect what we pay at the pump. So could disruptions like this push Canada to invest more heavily in renewable energy, electric vehicles and energy independence? Renewable energy investment strategist Pavel Molchanov from Raymond James spoke to Ken Connors.
