ONE STEP CLOSER: BILL C-12
Environmental groups across the country celebrated as the house of commons passed Bill C-12.
However, our work is not done yet! The bill still needs to pass the senate for it to be official. It is going to be a photo-finish as parliament gets set to recess for the summer...
Meaning the bill MUST pass or it risks being sidelined ... again.
Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act (Bill C-12) is the most progressive piece of climate legislation ever to be tabled in Canadian history. Although it is not perfect, it will act as a catalyst in bringing us closer to reaching our Paris Climate Agreements.
