In this week's issue of our environment newsletter, we look at the data gap in Canada's pursuit of net-zero emissions and how EVs are being used to clean up the air in arenas.
The 'truck tax' that has been a centrepiece of Conservative Party of Canada fundraising in recent days would be a perfect political prop but for one thing it's not a government policy.

From: Environment and Climate Change Canada
Today, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, launched the Net-Zero Advisory Body, an independent group of 14 experts from across the country, who will provide the Government of Canada with advice on the best pathways to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. The Advisory Body is a key part of the proposed Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act tabled in the House of Commons last fall, which would enshrine Canada’s goal of net-zero emissions by 2050 into law.
Net-Zero Advisory Body Co-Chairs, Marie-Pierre Ippersiel and Dan Wicklum
Canadians expect us to take action to address climate change and grow a cleaner, more competitive economy. As we increasingly move to a low-carbon world, achieving net-zero emissions in Canada by 2050 will help us do exactly that.
