The federal, provincial and territorial governments have failed to plan emissions cuts sufficient to achieve Canada's net-zero targets, says a new climate report. In a news statement, the Alberta government acknowledged that achieving a net-zero target will require cooperation from a range of partners. The proposed new federal target is a national emissions target that will require action across all parts of the economy," said Alberta Environment Minister Jason Nixon. "Industries and the emissions-reduction know-how within the province will be key to realizing the federal climate ambitions," Nixon said. The think tank said the findings were shared with the provincial, territorial and federal governments to verify accuracy.
