Environment committee Mr. Chair, thank you. Commissioner, thank you so much for your report. I'm glad you exist. Thank you to the departments that are here as well, and for all your presentations. This area is very important to me, not least because I'm highly sensitive to chemicals and to toxins.

Environment committee Okay. That's helpful. One of the other things that again I'm looking at just from my perspective, because I figure I'm an average Canadian, is in terms of what information is available on the Canadian government website in regard to toxic substances. I went to the Canadian go

Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Just because I see that we're sort of ending.... I guess the clear message for me is that we need to go much faster on this in terms of making this information available to Canadians in a way that they understand. Among Canadians in general, there is a belief that the Canadian

Environment committee I didn't actually know I was on the list, but that's okay; I have questions.
October 18th, 2018Committee meeting
Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Thank you. My question is to you, Ms. Johnson. You made a number of wonderful recommendations and I'd love to dig a little bit deeper into them. You mentioned that Canada should in its contribution internationally be helping people adapt. You were saying that right now most of
October 18th, 2018Committee meeting
Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee I think the further point you made, just to continue along that line, is that it also gets to the poorest and it also gets to some of the target groups that you were talking about. I'm assuming there's a particular reason why we focus on multilateral organizations but I'm not su

Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee I recall that shortly after coming into office we gave $400 million towards.... I thought it was for poor countries to adapt, or for climate change mitigation. Do you recall that? I thought there was a big announcement. I retweeted it. I was really excited about it. I'm surpris

Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Thank you. First I want to thank all three of you for your excellent presentations. I want to also say an extra thanks to Mr. Stewart for coming back around to Mr. Lake's comment in terms of whether or not there were alternatives to pricing pollution, and indicating that we hav

Environment committee Mr. Stewart.
October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting
Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee I'm going to shift topics now. Mr. Stewart, you talked about trade and climate policy and you said there are eight planks that Greenpeace has. I'd love it if you could, in the future, just send that off to the committee so we could have a sense about those. On that topic, has
October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting
Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Okay, I appreciate that. Ms. Turcotte, you ended off your presentation talking about the huge role the private sector can play in being more ambitious with our targets. Can you maybe elaborate a bit on that and whether there's also a role for small business, or are you also talk
October 23rd, 2018Committee meeting
Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Thank you. Then you also mentioned—this is something Davenport residents point out to me all the time—that we have a 66-megatonne gap in our plan to achieve our Paris accord targets. Is there any country that has fully costed out its plan on achieving its respective targets? Are

Julie Dzerowicz
Environment committee Thanks so much. We've had three completely separate presentations, with a lot of information. I'm a new committee member, so this is all good. I have a big interest in this area, so I'm very excited to be here. I really thank you all for your presentations. I'm just going to st
