Environment committee  , including agriculture. All I can say is to please stay tuned for our spring report on agriculture and climate change. We do look at the trends in emissions in that sector. It's not as important a sector in terms of total emissions saved, for example, compared to oil and gas

Jerry V. DeMarco

Environment committee  Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would like to follow up with Mr. Moffet on an answer he gave a while ago about the methodological differences between Environment and Climate Change Canada and the Parliamentary Budget Officer. Mr. Moffet, if I understood you correctly, your

Environment committee  I don't think our model draws a straight line between global temperatures and our GDP. It is an economy-wide, computable general equilibrium model that can estimate the GDP impacts of various issues, including climate change or any new measure, such as the carbon price

John Moffet

Environment committee  , is that carbon pricing has and will continue to reduce emissions, which will have the effect of reducing increases in the adverse effects of climate change.

Environment committee  Is an adverse effect of climate change global warming?

Michael KramConservative

Environment committee  Yes. We shared this analysis globally. There is a fairly well-established methodology for estimating the incremental impact of a tonne of greenhouse gas emissions—regardless of where it comes from—on the overall climate and progression of climate change, in terms of whether

John Moffet

Environment committee  Thanks. I want to give you a quick opportunity to.... Maybe this is a question for Mr. Tremblay as well. We've heard about the cost of the carbon pricing system, but there is a huge cost to climate change. When we are comparing the impact of crop failures, droughts

Environment committee  We have a methodological issue with him. With the way he calculated it, if he doesn't take that into account.... I trust he is using the right numbers, but we would take into account the cost of climate change. It's the same thing when he doesn't take into account

Jean-François Tremblay

Environment committee  To summarize, if I heard you correctly, Environment and Climate Change Canada has methodological issues with the Parliamentary Budget Officer. Is that what I understood?

Michael KramConservative

Environment committee   is absurd. It is not our goal, and it is not what Canadians voted for in 2015, 2019 or 2021. Canadians strongly believe that we should be leaders on fighting climate change and lowering our emissions. I don't know how those failed aspirations of the former leader of the Conservative

Adam van KoeverdenLiberal

Environment committee  Why does Environment and Climate Change Canada not track something like that? One has to understand that environmental policies don't impact only the environment; they impact the cost of living and Canadians' day-to-day lives. Why would food bank use be a metric that your

Michael KramConservative

Environment committee  That's right, I do not agree with him. I have said that publicly before. This is not my first time saying it. Further, he himself admits that his analysis does not include the impact of climate change.

Environment committee  Obviously, I am the Minister of the Environment and Climate Change and not the Parliamentary Budget Officer. If you have questions for him—
