Announces climate change strategy

Makes Statement0 Comments

Trudeau announces to global leaders at the United Nations climate change conference, that Canada “is back” on the world stage with a new climate change strategy.

People want to do more, but they want to know that what they do fits into a bigger picture, because there is no point in bending over backwards if your neighbour or your government is not also doing its part to ensure that we all have the maximal impact together

Although there has been no set time for when the strategy will be released, the government says that within 90 days of the conference, Trudeau will meet with all provinces to work out a “pan-Canadian framework” which will include a $20 billion dollar fund for green infrastructure over the next ten years, as well as a $2 billion ‘Low Carbon Economy Trust” that aims to help projects in reducing carbon emissions.
