Following the construction of the National Transcontinental Railway, the area opened up for colonization.

In 1918, the place was incorporated as the United Township Municipality of Carpentier-et-Courville, but the settlement continued to be called Goulet.

Ronald advocates that energy literacy starts with conversations and the knowledge that renewable energy is only intermittent electricity generated from unreliable breezes and sunshine. He argues that wind turbines and solar panels cannot manufacture anything for humanity, while fossil fuels manufacture everything for the 8 billion on this planet.
He is the founder of Principal Technical Services (PTS).

## Early life and education

Stein was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He attended Santa Monica College. Stein received a BS in electrical engineering from California State University, Northridge.

Stein has been named as the private business spokesperson for the energy industry. He has started an initiative for Energy Literacy, where he shares books, podcasts, and articles to educate people about the energy sector. Stein is an energy agnostic, and supplies in-depth discussions and explanations about energy-related subjects for the public to become energy literate about the many sides of renewable electricity, and the products manufactured from fossil fuels, that support lifestyles and economies around the world. Renewables and fossil fuels are different. Fossil fuels are primarily used to manufacture products and fuels for humanity, while renewables only generate electricity but manufacture nothing for humanity.
