         <description><![CDATA[<div>Canada seems to be very similar to Australia in its addressing and ‘commitments’ to climate action.&nbsp;<br><br>One on hand the Trudeau government takes a hard-line on the necessity to introduce climate friendly policy and transition the economy to renewable energy sources - a step long overdue since Canada already has the capacity to be renewable.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>On the other hand- while accepting the terror that the warming climate will bring and promoting themselves internationally as doing something about it - the government has continued to approve high emitting projects such as the Pacific Northwest LNG Project.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Finding out what the Canadian government is actually up to in regards to its climate policy and its commitments to the Paris Agreement has been difficult since it involves a lot of combing through aesthetically presented though large worded and repetitive government reports which don’t actually seem to say anything or take any particular position.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>It has been helpful to find NGO sources like the Climate Action Network who analyse and summarise the motions or commitments that the Canadian government makes in relation to climate change and collects the reactions and criticisms of civil society members to these directives, recently most are concerning the Pan-Canadian Framework on Climate Change which is the domestic answer to the Paris negotiations.</div><div><a href="http://climateactionnetwork.ca/">http://climateactionnetwork.ca/</a>&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
