Canada’s role in reaching a net-zero economy is getting more important every year as our country reinforces partnerships with various nations and companies around the world to build the economy of tomorrow. With green hydrogen partnerships that could be exported to Europe, EV vehicles being built in Canada that could be sold around the world, decarbonized electricity being exported to the United States, the development of critical minerals essential to the net-zero economy, and Canadian-made innovations, our country is at the forefront of change. This session explores the role that Canada still needs to play in reaching a net-zero global economy.
