Proposed amendments to Bill C-50: The Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act
Summary
The International Institute for Sustainable Development proposes amendments to Bill C-50, the Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act, to enhance its accountability, inclusivity, and integration with climate policies, noting that while the bill provides a useful governance framework, existing gaps limit its efficacy.
Key insights
- Bill C-50 is designed to foster sustainable jobs and progress toward a net-zero economy in Canada. Although it offers a beneficial framework for governance and accountability, the document asserts that the legislation alone is insufficient to achieve an equitable low-carbon economy and contains gaps that hinder its overall impact and efficacy.
- The proposed amendments to Bill C-50 are intended to strengthen the bill's inclusivity, accountability, and its integration with the climate policies of Canada.
