The federal government is not systematically tracking the carbon footprint related to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s travels nor that of other ministers, according to information tabled in the House of Commons on Jan. 30.
Conservative MP Garnett Genuis asked in December for data on the amount of emissions produced by Trudeau and his staff in the course of their travel and work, as well as that of other ministers. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a whole-of-society approach is one of the main priorities of the Liberal government.
