Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55 Preamble
Preamble Whereas there is broad scientific consensus that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions contribute to global climate change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas recent anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases are at the highest level in history and present an unprecedented risk to the environment, including its biological diversity, to human health and safety and to economic prosperity;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas impacts of climate change, such as coastal erosion, thawing permafrost, increases in heat waves, droughts and flooding, and related risks to critical infrastructures and food security are already being felt throughout Canada and are impacting Canadians, in particular the Indigenous peoples of Canada, low-income citizens and northern, coastal and remote communities;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas Parliament recognizes that it is the responsibility of the present generation to minimize impacts of climate change on future generations;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas the United Nations, Parliament and the scientific community have identified climate change as an international concern which cannot be contained within geographic boundaries;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas Canada has ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, done in New York on May 9, 1992, which entered into force in 1994, and the objective of that Convention is the stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas Canada has also ratified the Paris Agreement, done in Paris on December 12, 2015, which entered into force in 2016, and the aims of that Agreement include holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, recognizing that this would significantly reduce the risks and impacts of climate change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas the Government of Canada is committed to achieving Canada’s Nationally Determined Contribution – and increasing it over time – under the Paris Agreement by taking comprehensive action to reduce emissions across all sectors of the economy, accelerate clean economic growth and build resilience to the impacts of climate change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas it is recognized in the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change that climate change is a national problem that requires immediate action by all governments in Canada as well as by industry, non-governmental organizations and individual Canadians;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas greenhouse gas emissions pricing is a core element of the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas behavioural change that leads to increased energy efficiency, to the use of cleaner energy, to the adoption of cleaner technologies and practices and to innovation is necessary for effective action against climate change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas the pricing of greenhouse gas emissions on a basis that increases over time is an appropriate and efficient way to create incentives for that behavioural change;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas greenhouse gas emissions pricing reflects the “polluter pays” principle;
Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act — G-11.55
Whereas some provinces are developing or have implemented greenhouse gas emissions pricing systems;
