Sleeping Giant Capital's AGM: A Glimpse into Calgary's Steadfast Energy Governance
Sleeping Giant Capital Concludes Successful AGM in Calgary
Sleeping Giant Capital Corp. (TSXV: SSX), a company with non-operated oil and gas assets in Alberta, held its annual general meeting in Calgary on November 18, 2025. With 50.48% of shares represented either in person or by proxy, shareholders demonstrated strong engagement by approving all proposed matters, reinforcing confidence in the company's direction.
Key Leadership and Governance Approvals
A slate of four directors received overwhelming support: Terence Meek and Jonah Nguyen secured 96.90% of votes, while Greg Turnbull, KC, and Jack Elliott were approved with a unanimous 100%. Furthermore, Deloitte LLP was unanimously appointed as the company's auditors, and an amended, "rolling" 10% stock option plan, compliant with TSX Venture Exchange policies, also passed with 100% approval from shares represented.
Calgary's Enduring Energy Pulse
These governance outcomes underscore a consistent operational tempo within Calgary's energy sector. Despite global shifts, Calgary's economy remains significantly tied to the energy industry, with 2025 projections signaling robust growth. Companies like Sleeping Giant, even with non-operated assets, contribute to the over 100,000 direct and indirect jobs and substantial GDP generated by the sector in the city.
Navigating Alberta's Evolving Energy Landscape
The company's stable governance comes as Alberta's energy sector continues to adapt to policy changes. Premier Smith's government is easing TIER program compliance for smaller firms and pursuing a "Grand Bargain" for pipeline expansion and environmental law reform. This dynamic environment highlights the importance of strong internal governance for companies operating within Calgary, Canada's energy epicentre, as it balances conventional strengths with new economic realities.
