Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland responded to a call by the premier of Newfoundland and Labrador to get rid of carbon taxes and Clean Fuel Regulations by calling the global “climate transition” an “opportunity” that Canada must seize.
“I do also think we all need to recognize ... that the climate transition is an opportunity for our country. That it is something that—if we embrace, and we are—is a tremendous source of jobs and growth for today and for the future,” Ms. Freeland said during a press conference in Placentia, Newfoundland and Labrador.
