Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, pictured through a TV camera lens on Nov. 20, 2020. Some of our peers, such as Germany and France, allocated as much as 30 per cent of their pandemic recovery stimulus specifically toward emission-reduction initiatives. The U.K.’s 'Build Back Greener' plan promises to create two million climate jobs as it shifts to a 'high-skill, low carbon' economy. What we got in Canada was a promise of more details to come.

The oil sands in Fort McMurray, Alta. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has given the international community just over a decade to radically transform the global economy to limit the worst effects of climate change. Looking ahead, the most effective policies for reducing emissions on a meaningful scale will be those that directly target the production and consumption of fossil fuels, especially in the oil, gas and transportation sectors which together account for the majority of Canadian emissions, writes Hadrian Mertins-Kirkwood.
