Climate group voices concern about fossil fuel industry representation on pension fund boards
A climate advocacy group says oil and gas representation on the boards of Canada's big public pensions raise concerns about conflicts of interest. In a report out Thursday, Shift said that as of June 1, the boards of five of Canada's largest public sector funds had members who are also involved with fossil fuel companies. The pension-focused group argues that funds have a legal responsibility to act in the long-term best interest of beneficiaries, and that the interests of fossil fuel companies could compete with efforts to manage climate-related risks and reduce emissions. 'It's easy to see how fossil fuel company directors could potentially find themselves with real or perceived conflicts, and how such conflicts, if not addressed, could undermine prudent pension governance,' said Shift executive director Adam Scott in a statement. The report says CPP Investments, Canada's largest pension fund, has the second-highest representation with three in ten members of its board having ties to the industry. Story continues below advertisement The fund, which recently dropped its commitment to reach net-zero financed emissions by 2050, wholly rejected the concerns raised by Shift. 'The report is nonsense,' said Michel Leduc, global head of public affairs and communications at CPP Investments, in a statement. 0:57 CPP Investment Board head says he backs West's 'responsibly-produced conventional energy' 'We seek out the most seasoned professionals to undertake a complex role of overseeing the management of a global investment organization … The energy sector's total GDP contribution to Canadian economic activity is disproportionately significant and that's precisely where you find top governance experience in Canada with a view to the best interests of contributors and beneficiaries.'

AIMCo, where the Alberta government dismissed the entire board last year and installed new members, had the highest industry representation at a third, or two of six members. Story continues below advertisement The pension fund's members are selected through a 'rigorous appointment process and are subject to AIMCo's Code of Conduct,' said spokeswoman Carolyn Quick in a statement. Other funds did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Shift said that in total, nine current board members across the funds sit on the boards or executive teams of 12 oil and gas companies, or investment firms focused on the industry. It notes, however, that the number of boards with fossil fuel representation has gone down from seven to five since its last report in 2022. The boards of Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan, Investment Management Corporation of Ontario and CDPQ no longer have fossil fuel representation, it said.

Consumers pull back on spending amid trade war concerns, new data shows
Consumers are continuing to pull back on their spending amid the uncertainty of U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs, according to a new report from TD Economics. 'Canadian consumers hit pause in the second quarter of 2025, reacting to escalating trade tensions … unlikely to splurge on large purchases when they're worried about losing their jobs,' the report says. 'Said plainly: the damage is done.' What does the data show? The report, based on the latest credit and debit card spending data in the second quarter (April to June), showed that although the total amount spent increased by 1.5 per cent compared to last year, that is a decline from 5.4 per cent in the first three months of the year. Story continues below advertisement On top of this, TD says it is lowering its forecast for the remainder of the year as it expects this trend to continue with 'some recovery toward the end of the year.' The trend is also consistent with the latest numbers from Statistics Canada, which showed most recently that in April, retail sales increased by 0.3 per cent compared to March. That's down from a 0.8 per cent increase in March compared to February.

So basically cheaper spending at gas stations,' says economist Maria Solovieva at TD Bank Group. At the start of April, Prime Minister Mark Carney removed the consumer carbon price, which may have contributed to the overall decline in card spending, as the amounts tracked as being spent at places like gas stations declined. When looking beyond the headline reading, there are more specifics in the report which show where consumers may be cutting back. 'We can break it down by high-level categories like furniture spending declining, for example, grocery spending, that suggests that we are, as Canadians, we're a little bit more cautious potentially,' says Solovieva. 'Similarly with services spending, like air travel, for example … we also saw the slowdowns in those types of spending, or a complete contraction.' Story continues below advertisement 4:15 NerdWallet Consumer Credit Card Report Although the impact of Trump's tariffs may not be fully reflected yet in higher prices for goods and services, the uncertain outlook for household budgets and the labour market may be leading many consumers to take a cautious approach when opening their wallets. What are Canadian consumers most concerned about? Trump's tariffs have long been expected to lead to job cuts as higher costs could weigh on business expansion budgets on top of those of consumers. Story continues below advertisement A separate TD report warned that on the current trajectory, the trade war could lead to 100,000 additional job cuts by the third quarter depending on how governments respond. 'Some of us are, especially who are maybe working in the sectors that are tied to U.S. trade, potentially expecting some reduction in their hours, working hours, or potentially layoffs,' says Solovieva. 'So that uncertainty created this environment where consumers just decided to be a little bit more cautious and perhaps not to spend on those items.' The latest labour market data from Statistics Canada showed unemployment increased to seven per cent in May, led by job losses in manufacturing. The trend is forecast to continue as the trade war evolves, and many workers in vulnerable sectors may be bracing for challenging times ahead. 'We actually are seeing that in the data already, and some are already saying, you know what, I need to be a little bit more careful with what I'm buying in this period of time. So we are expecting still a little bit of an increase in unemployment. We're currently at seven per cent unemployment rate. We're expecting it to rise to 7.2 per cent,' says Solovieva. 'We'll see how the numbers play out, but consumption will probably be flat for Q2 and potentially with negative momentum into Q3. So we expect the contraction in the third quarter.'
