CRED-NB is an active member of Climate Action Network Canada (CAN-Rac). During the United Nations meetings in New York, CAN-Rac issued a statement on Sept. 24, after Prime Minister Carney withdrew last-minute from the United Nations Secretary-General’s Climate Summit.
Calling Canada’s action’s “embarrassing,” Caroline Brouillette, Executive Director of Climate Action Network Canada, said: “This absence only sows more confusion and doubt, amid recent uncertainty over whether the federal government is still committed to Canada’s climate targets and to key emissions-reductions policies. Prime Minister Carney and his team need to get their act together and close the gap between words and actions before COP – both at a national and international level. Is Canada in, or out? Climate Action Network Canada and its members are watching.”
