LA POINTE DE L’ICEBERG : composer avec les coûts connus et inconnus des changements climatiques au Canada
Summary
The document argues that Canada must prioritize climate adaptation through increased public funding, intergovernmental coordination, and enhanced transparency of climate risks to redirect investments toward resilience.
Key insights
- All levels of government are urged to significantly increase funding for adaptation measures, integrating these investments into existing programs such as healthcare, infrastructure, energy, and public safety, regardless of gaps in future risk information.
- The federal government should lead a coordinated approach with provincial, territorial, Indigenous, and municipal authorities to manage adaptation, which would help avoid overlaps and gaps while establishing shared priorities and indicators of progress.
- Governments and financial regulators should systematically increase transparency and communication regarding the economic and social impacts of climate risks across both public and private sectors to shift investments toward resilience.
