Canadian Federal Election Marks An "Inflection Point" For Climate Policy

With Canada's federal election only weeks away, partner and head of Torys' Climate Change practice Tyson Dyck says that climate change policies are currently at the "centre of a national conversation".

"There's uncertainty with every election, but this particular election has really brought a lot of these policies to the fore and ... put them in the centre of a national conversation around what we should be doing on climate," Tyson said in a webinar hosted by ClearBlue Markets, which was later quoted in Carbon Pulse.

Considering the rollback of climate policies in the United Stated by the Trump administration, Tyson says Canada's election could potentially mark an "inflection point", resulting in a different policy framework than where the country has been heading.
