As the federal election unfolds, Climate Action Network Canada (CAN-Rac) releases Real Leadership in the Climate Emergency, a series of policy recommendations defining a serious and adequate response to the climate crisis that federal parties should commit to.
Today three internationally renowned experts identified how Canada can improve its climate leadership. The event highlighted the disconnect between Canada’s bold words on the world stage calling for climate action while emissions continue to rise at home.
Today the federal government introduced Canada’s first government-led climate accountability legislation. This is a piece of legislation that Climate Action Network Canada and our members and allies have been working toward for many years and a moment to celebrate in the history of Canada‘s action on climate change and the effort to make sure that climate change is no longer treated as a partisan political football in Canada.
Building a zero-carbon economy is the only reliable way to ensure Canadian prosperity and good jobs in the coming decades. CAN-Rac is pleased to see a strong financial commitment to clean transition being announced by the federal government today.
