Environment & Water
The Issue
The SCC believes that economic growth and environmental protection can go hand-in-hand. Canada is a world leader in clean energy technologies, and policies that address climate change can support economic growth while protecting the environment. Long-term economic prosperity depends on Canada managing its resources in a responsible and sustainable manner.
