OVERVIEW:
On November 12, The Hill Times Events | Policy Briefing Live will examine the politics of Canada’s policy on Climate Change. Climate Change is a shared responsibility between the provinces and the federal government and Canada is an active participant at the COP21 meetings in Paris in December. Will Canada’s policy be changing as a result of mounting global pressure? Will the results of our federal election impact Canada’s policy on Climate Change? How do politics play into Canada’s policy? Join us as we assemble a provocative panel of experts and pundits to discuss Canada’s future policy on Climate Change.
