There are steps Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland can take in next month’s budget to address immediate affordability concerns while also setting the economy on a path toward lower emissions.

As Canadians struggle with a weak economy, it's important to fight back against a fossil fuel industry and its allies trying to undermine meaningful climate action.

We need significantly more money now and into the future to shift the economy away from the production and consumption of fossil fuels.

A political consensus is emerging that climate policy is not compatible with a fair and prosperous economy, which puts Canada’s broader efforts to tackle the climate crisis at grave risk.

While the private sector certainly has a role to play, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland's 2023 budget should not be leaving vital clean-tech investments up to chance.

This month’s budget could spell the end of such big-picture thinking that drove spending in the early stages of the pandemic.

The government says it will focus on building a clean economy in its 2021 budget. Establishing a just transition framework to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 is long overdue, writes Hadrian Mertins-Kirkwood, a senior researcher with the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives.
