Le Canada n’a pas besoin de renoncer aux efforts climatiques pour favoriser la croissance

The Canadian Climate Institute asserts that climate policy and economic growth are not mutually exclusive, arguing that Canada's long-term prosperity depends on a robust energy transition plan. The document highlights the global growth of clean energy technologies, noting that the US and China are leading in this sector. It advocates for investments in clean electricity networks, critical minerals, and a clean innovation strategy in the 2026 federal budget to prevent long-term GDP reduction caused by climate change.

• The global clean energy technology market has grown by approximately 20% annually over the last decade, reaching nearly 1.2 trillion US dollars in 2025, with China and the United States leading in clean growth infrastructure and investment.
• Climate change is projected to reduce Canada's long-term annual economic growth rate by nearly half, potentially resulting in losses of hundreds of billions of dollars or more by the end of the century.
• Canada can leverage its natural advantages in critical minerals and clean electricity, as well as its engineering expertise in handling extreme climates, to develop clean solutions for the global market.
• The author urges the federal government to use the 2026 budget to move from the proposed National Electrification Strategy to action, specifically by funding the doubling of the electricity grid using clean energy.
