Oil Price Shock: $55 WTI
âš This is a flightplan, not a commitment.
Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the
Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted
into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation
model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview
Global oil demand softens due to trade war uncertainty and energy transition, dropping WTI to $55/bbl. Alberta royalties, energy employment, and provincial GDP face significant pressure.
Ducklings Simulation
This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 1). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.

How to Engage
Discuss this flightplan in the Pond forum under Energy. Vote on adoption through Consensus. Adopted flightplans become projects with real-world implementation tracking.
