We can say that, despite the fact those programs have been renewed until 2028, climate change is at our door and we have to be able to adapt in accordance with its magnitude. Quebec suffered dramatic consequences this past summer, when we had record precipitation and a frost in June. Who could have anticipated a frost in June barely a few years ago? While southern Quebec was flooded, Abitibi, in the north, experienced an unprecedented dry period.
Risk management programs have to be constantly reviewed to deal with climate change, which not only affects both Quebec and Canada, but the entire planet as well.
