Wildlife Habitat Canada reposted this
The Green Budget Coalition wrote Finance Minister LeBlanc - in the context of U.S. tariff announcements and threats - to provide our advice on how Canadian government responses and protective measures, including the use of any new Canadian tariff revenues, could maximize benefits for people in Canada. https://lnkd.in/gayX6Xjn Some key GBC points regarding such federal actions: -> It is imperative that they integrate, maintain, enhance and not regress efforts to address the climate, biodiversity and pollution crises. -> They must take advantage of opportunities for increased economic and affordability benefits, while protecting people in Canada from climate, biodiversity and pollution risks. -> Actions must not include subsidies that hinder progress to address these risks. -> Taking these steps will strengthen Canada’s economic independence and energy security, and create economic, environmental, and human health benefits in the short-term and far into the future. -> The Green Budget Coalition’s Recommendations for Budget 2025 outlines many strategic actions which remain priorities for federal investment and indeed are even more important in the current context. -> Many such measures that support long-term sustainability - for example interprovincial electricity transmission, building energy efficiency retrofits, nature protection, sustainable agriculture, and training and market development for sustainable jobs - have the potential to create jobs, improve affordability in Indigenous communities and across rural and urban Canada, and help Canada emerge stronger after the current trade tensions. In addition, the GBC's letter outlined additional more specific approaches, which we encouraged the Minister and government to consider, including putting emission reduction and job conditions on support for emissions-intensive sectors, measures to reduce reliance on U.S. energy trade, and a major investment in green infrastructure. The GBC's Recommendations for Budget 2025 are available at https://lnkd.in/ejSxz_xw
