Thank you.
There are a number of measures. Obviously, putting a price on pollution and giving a rebate back to citizens in Ontario and in three other provinces is important, so I think people will be very pleased when they get those rebates. The overwhelming majority of families—80% of families, plus—as the Parliamentary Budget Officer has reported as well, will be getting more back in the rebate than the price on pollution.
We also, though, recognize that we want to see the opportunity for energy retrofit issues that are going to be important for households, for municipalities, so we put money towards the Federation of Canadian Municipalities green approach towards funding infrastructure projects. That, we think, will allow people at the municipal level to retrofit buildings that will provide opportunities for green approaches to reconsidering infrastructure. We see that as important.
We've also put in place measures so people can get an advantage if they are buying zero-emission vehicles. People are out buying all-electric cars. There are a couple of them out around Parliament Hill today. It will help people to get into vehicles that will actually have less of an impact on the environment. We see that as important. That goes a little further because it also allows firms that are building fleets of cars to have an accelerated ability to depreciate those fleets if they are zero-emission vehicles.
There are multiple things to help move the dial. What we're clearly seeing is that Canadians are recognizing that the impacts of climate change are real and enormous. It's obvious in and around this region of Ottawa, or in Quebec. I was meeting with the Premier of New Brunswick this morning in New Brunswick. The devastating impacts of climate change are real and we're trying to take action to make an important, long-term difference.
