Recently, Canada and California signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed toward reducing vehicle emissions. The agreement, in theory, intended to harmonize efforts and carry out cooperative activities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from light vehicles. The MOU also includes emissions standards and cooperation to accelerate the adoption of zero-emission vehicles. This MOU comes as U.S. President Trump considers rolling back emissions standards set by former President Barack Obama – which have been harmonized with Canadian regulations since 2011.
