Energy is of great importance in the Canadian economy. Canada is not only the world's largest consumer of energy per capita, but is also a major energy producer, including significant amounts for export. Technology has altered the way Canadians produce and consume energy, increasing the diversity of energy sources, i.e., natural gas, oil, natural gas liquids, coal, hydro, nuclear, and renewables and others. In this article a detailed investigation is carried out to analyze the present situation of Canada's energy resources in terms of energy production and consumption and sectoral energy uses, and simple and effective correlations for their future projections are provided.
