>Is this because oil/gas has penetrated the Canadian government lobby and made it too big to fail?

You're almost certainly onto something here. Much like why water cooled nuclear reactors are still a thing, despite molten salt reactors having been around for about 60 years (as in, before any of those water cooled reactors melted down with a catastrophic hydrogen explosion, caused by you know, all that water).

We don't have an energy shortage. We have political obstructionism.
