A Thriving Future

This policy brief analyzes Canada's Emissions Reduction Plan (ERP), arguing that while decarbonization is essential for long-term socio-economic benefits, specific policies require additional social and economic safeguards to effectively reduce poverty and inequality.

• An analysis of 67 of the 129 policies within Canada's Emissions Reduction Plan (ERP) revealed that the impacts of these measures vary significantly; some contribute to reducing poverty and inequality alongside emissions, while others require social and economic safeguards to maintain equity and improve social standards.
