  • How Did Environment Play in This Election? by Aaron Freeman A
    How did environment play in this election? by Aaron Freeman A version of this article appeared in the Winnipeg Free Press on November 13, 2015. With the longest federal election campaign in modern history now behind us, and as federal officials heading to Paris for the UN Climate Meeting, the environmental community is hopeful that the new government will deliver the environmental leadership Canada urgently needs. The election’s unexpected Red Tide has meant the Liberals’ platform is now under a microscope to determine just what was promised in terms of environmental action. The platform touched on many environmental priorities, promising: a significant investment in green jobs, a national carbon price negotiated with the provinces, protections for national parks and waterways, and a modernization of Canada’s environmental assessment process. The platform also laments Canada’s loss of 71% of its clean tech market share over the previous decade, which it promises to start rebuilding. While this has led many to be cautiously optimistic about a Liberal majority, UBC political scientist Kathryn Harrison notes that many of the Liberals’ promises lacked specificity. For example: “It calls for a national price on carbon, but doesn't give any details about what that scheme would look like." Harrison adds that the Conservative, NDP and Liberal platforms all “left the door open to one or more pipelines” that would facilitate increased development of the oil sands. While Trudeau has voiced objections to the Northern Gateway pipeline, like our previous government, he supported the construction of the recently rejected Keystone XL pipeline. Ensuring that the new government’s environmental promises are kept, and reversing the years of decline in Canada’s environmental record will require leadership within all parties.

  • Carolyn Bennett Minister, Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada
    Carolyn Bennett Minister, Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada AREVA Canada Inc.’s Proposed Kiggavik Uranium Mine Dear Ms. Bennett, In the coming weeks, your government will make a decision that will have major repercussions for the future of Nunavut. In May 2015, the Nunavut Impact Review Board (NIRB) released its final hearing report, recommending the Kiggavik uranium mine not be approved at this time. AREVA Resources Canada Inc. (AREVA) then wrote to your predecessor, requesting the Minister reject the NIRB recommendation. This was followed by a series of letters – from the Baker Lake Hunters and Trappers Organization (HTO), Kivalliq Wildlife Board, Aqiggiq HTO, Hamlet of Chesterfield Inlet, Beverly and Qamanirjuaq Caribou Management Board, and Mining Watch Canada – requesting the Minister uphold the NIRB recommendation and reject the Kiggavik proposal. I hope you will carefully consider the facts and arguments presented in the NIRB final hearing report and subsequent correspondence. Nunavummiut Makitagunarningit believes that the public record demonstrates that AREVA’s proposal should not be approved at this time, and that AREVA’s request to overturn the NIRB decision was unfounded and inappropriate. Nunavummiut Makitagunarningit also welcomed the statements made by the Hon. Hunter Tootoo during the election campaign. In an interview with Nunatsiaq News, Mr. Tootoo promised that, under the Liberal Party, it would be “the government that grants the licences, but the communities that grant permission.” The NIRB report and submissions to your predecessor clearly show that the most affected communities have not granted permission for this project to go ahead. Mr. Tootoo also told CBC News that the “Liberal party will go along with decisions made by a regulatory body without political interference.” Many Inuit from Nunavut heard these promises and elected Mr.

Poloz – December 11, 2014 Page 1 William C. Dudley: Good morning...if I could have your attention please. My name is Bill Dudley. I’m the Chair of the Economic Club of New York and I’m also the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. I’m pleased to introduce our speaker this morning, my central banking colleague, Stephen Poloz. I’ve enjoyed his company on many occasions. I have found him not only a highly capable central banker but an astute observer with respect to financial market and economic developments. When we’re at Basel and other places that central bankers meet, I always perk up when it’s his turn to speak. Now some background: He was appointed Governor of the Bank of Canada in June 2013 but he had plenty of prior central banking experience. He first joined the Bank of Canada in 1981 and occupied a range of increasingly senior positions over a 14-year span. In addition to his background as a central banker, he has over 30 years of public and private sector experience in financial markets, forecasting and economic policy. He served as managing editor of the publication, The International Bank Credit Analyst. He also had a long career at the Export Development, Canada where he was President and CEO before becoming Governor of the Bank of Canada.
