I wanted to draw your attention to something else the Advisory Body said that seems really important. It is on page 10 of the document:
3. Prioritize the development of a climate change data, insights, and monitoring digital platform by the end of 2023
That is the third item in the advice given by the Advisory Body. It is talking about every major GHG emissions source and sink.
The fourth item in the advice given is this:
4. Ensure that the models and analytical approaches used to project and assess Canada’s progress towards emissions reduction targets are transparent, robust, and coordinated
Those two points seem to be very fair. This would provide concrete data.
Still on page 10, the document states: "draw on the expertise of government, academia, civil society, labour, and industry." I find that proposal very interesting. Of course, it doesn't appear in the supplementary estimates. At least, I haven't seen it. I should note that the report was released on Monday.
Could it be included in the general budget?
