After the release of the federal budget on Nov. 4, Climate Action Network Canada issued a statement outlining details of how the government’s new direction tackles the climate crisis. Summary: we are not impressed. The executive director of the national organization said: “We were looking for much-needed clarity on how Ottawa would diversify the economy away from volatile fossil fuels, meet our international climate obligations, and steer Canada towards a safer and more affordable clean energy future. We’re still waiting.“
The statement includes quotes from member climate groups across the country, including CRED-NB. Read the full statement HERE.
