A statement from this year's G7 meetings in Halifax said “many ministers" stressed that the impacts of climate change were an “existential threat."

As climate change warms the oceans and melts polar ice, rising the seas and provoking extreme storms, G7 members have found themselves unable to share basic facts about their promise to kill off government handouts to carbon-polluting industries.

Too many investors are still seeing climate action as a restraint on profit, the president of one of Canada’s biggest pension plans told a room full of foreign government officials and private sector leaders Tuesday.

If some governments won’t yet play ball, Environment and Climate Change Minister Catherine McKenna suggested there are plenty of other players.

“We used to talk about the freedom of the high seas. That freedom we don’t want, we want the high seas to be legally regulated," says Karmenu Vella.

The deal that emerged from the Trump-Kim summit has been criticized as having weaker language than in past North Korean negotiations. It turns out, it also has weaker language than the G7 statement that the Americans endorsed right before Trump fled Canada for Singapore.

Donald Trump's trade adviser is apologizing for saying there's a "special place in hell" for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau because of his "bad-faith diplomacy" during the G7 summit in Quebec.

Leaders from across Canada's political spectrum voiced their support on Sunday, June 10, 2018, for free trade and opposition to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum while denouncing the Trump administration's unprecedented attacks on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The Trudeau government announced at the G7 summit that it has raised more than $3.8 billion in an effort with other countries to send the world's poorest girls to school.

"The national security pretext is absurd, and frankly insulting to Canadians, the closest and strongest ally the United States has had," said Canada's foreign minister in Quebec.

The tense G7 summit in Quebec ended with a dramatic thud Saturday, when minutes after Canada released the text of a joint statement signed by all leaders, U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew his nation's support in a tweet.

Expecting protests in Quebec City during the G7 Summit in Charlevoix, authorities beefed up security with an army of 8,000 security officers from municipal, provincial and federal police forces. But the protests were rather small and tame, compared to what has been seen at previous gatherings of world leaders.

As quick as the visit from President Trump has been, it has also been a whirlwind of astonishing actions by the leader of the world’s most powerful nation.

Chrystia Freeland said G7 negotiators are still working to finalize the statement, known as a communiqué, almost halfway through the two-day summit hosted by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Quebec.

'No,' came the blunt response from McKenna, speaking to reporters at the G7 summit in Quebec, on the first day of the two-day summit of advanced industrialized nations.
