This plan document proposes both short-term action & a long-term perspective to address national climate change objectives without placing an unreasonable burden on any region of Canada. The first section reviews the scientific evidence about climate change and Canada's international commitments to addressing this issue. The second section sets out Canada's approach to climate change, including the key principles that guide the national climate change plan and the steps under way or needed to achieve targeted reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Section three outlines proposed steps in emission reduction in the following areas: transportation, buildings, industry, renewable energy & clean fuels, small & medium size enterprises and fugitive emissions, agriculture, forestry & landfills, and international emissions. Section four discusses how individual Canadians, communities, and governments can contribute to emissions reductions. Section five outlines how to improve understanding of climate change & prepare to adapt. The final section discusses plan reporting & accountability. The annex summarizes climate change modelling & analysis activity, describes the analytic framework developed to evaluate climate change policy options, and reviews & interprets the results of the most recent round of modelling.

This discussion paper is a step toward meeting Canada's climate change commitments with regard to developing a plan in consultation with provinces, territories, stakeholders, and Canadians. It first reviews Canadian actions to address climate change issues, summarizes what is known about climate change & its expected impacts on Canada, and assesses the framework provided by the Kyoto Protocol for how those issues might be addressed. Conclusions are presented regarding the size of the climate change challenge, the potential economic impacts & co-benefits of action, the basic policy instruments available to governments, and risks surrounding any policy approach. Finally, policy options considered & evaluated by Canada are set out for discussion. Appendices include a summary of results of modelling the economic impacts of climate change policy; descriptions of targeted measures for all options; and a possible formula for allocating permits under domestic emissions trading.

Canada has been an engaged participant in global climate change negotiations since the late 1980s. Until recently, Canadian policy seemed to be driven in large part by a desire to join in multilateral efforts to address climate change. By contrast, current policy is seeking a "made in Canada" approach to the issue. Recent government-sponsored analytic efforts as well as the government's own stated policies have been focused almost entirely on domestic regulation and incentives, domestic opportunities for technological responses, domestic costs, domestic carbon markets, and the setting of a domestic carbon "price" at a level that sends the appropriate marketplace signal to produce needed reductions. A Globally Integrated Climate Policy for Canada builds on the premise that Canada is in need of an approach that effectively integrates domestic priorities and global policy imperatives. Leading Canadian and international experts explore policy ideas and options from a range of disciplinary perspectives, including science, law, political science, economics, and sociology. Chapters explore the costs, opportunities, or imperatives to participate in international diplomatic initiatives and regimes, the opportunities and impacts of regional or global carbon markets, the proper mix of domestic policy tools, the parameters of Canadian energy policy, and the dynamics that propel or hinder the Canadian policy process.
