Canada: Progress On Climate Change? Not Yet

An update on a previous entry.

 

This article sums up the Report. In brief: the government (proudly self-styled Canada's New Government) hasn't lifted a finger to address climate change and it needs to get its act together posthaste.

 

The report poses three simple questions:

  • Is Canada on track to meet its emission reduction obligations?
  • Is Canada ready to adapt to the impact of climate change?
  • Is the government organized and managing well?
The disturbing answer to all three is "No."

 

On the flip side, Canada's New Government has effected a remarkable turnaround in spending habits. Total program spending is down for the first time in 9 years and the national debt has been reduced by $561 per Canadian, the greatest amount in 24 years. Sounds nice. Wonder who-all felt the pinch.
