Original language of petition: English
Petition to the Minister of Environment and Climate Change
- The Canadian Climate Net-Zero Emissions Accountability states "the Government of Canada is committed to achieving and exceeding the target for 2030 set out in its nationally determined contribution communicated in accordance with the Paris Agreement";
- The Government of Canada ratified the Paris Climate Agreement on November 4, 2016;
- The Auditor General of Canada report titled "Just Transition to a Low-Carbon Economy" states that Government of Canada has recommended the Government develop a plan for supporting workers in a just transition;
- By supporting the fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty, we would increase the incentive for other countries to accelerate their renewable energy transitions; and
- Continued reliance on fossil fuel infrastructure will make Canada seem to be behind the curve in science and technology. This will reduce our influence in the international community.
