On March 3, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with Canada's premiers and territorial leaders in Vancouver for discussions on climate change.
Emerging from those talks was the release of the Vancouver Declaration on Clean Growth and Climate Change. Chief among the objectives of the declaration will be to grow the economy while cutting back emissions. As the post-meeting communiqué noted, the First Ministers will capitalize on the opportunity of a low carbon and climate resilient economy to create good-paying and long-term jobs. Information on the declaration is available on the Canadian Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat website
