Abstract
This report finds that Canadian climate change policy remains underdeveloped and plagued by a wide “ambition gap” between government promises and policy action. The report breaks down the success and shortcomings of current Canadian climate policy at the federal and provincial levels, and makes recommendations that would set the country on a path toward an inclusive and productive low-carbon economy.
