Show notes

A recent report from the Canadian Climate Institute expects Canada to fail in meeting its 2035 and 2050 emissions targets. It credits Ottawa for its reduction efforts, but says more carbon pricing policy, as well as provincial cooperation is needed for Canada to stay on track towards its targets. Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Ross Linden-Fraser, co-author of the report and research lead at the Canadian Climate Institute to discuss the policies the Carney government needs to implement to help Canada reach its targets, and the everyday things Canadians can be doing to help us get there.
