Title: Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change
Description: This statement was drafted by the federal government in agreement with provincial and territorial governments - with the exception of Saskatchewan, which did not agree to the plan. It is meant to further the climate policy goals established in the Vancouver Declaration by the first ministers. The Pan-Canadian Framework has four main pillars: pricing carbon pollution; complementary measures to further reduce emissions across the economy; measures to adapt to the impacts of climate change and build resilience; and actions to accelerate innovation, support clean technology, and create jobs.

Title: Canada’s Mid-Century Long-term Low Greenhouse Gas Development Strategy
Description: The document, submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) at the COP22 meetings in Marakkesh “is not a blueprint for action, and it is not policy prescriptive. Rather, the report is meant to inform the conversation about how Canada can achieve a low-carbon economy.” The document summarizes a full range of the recent policy documents, and modelling analyses with various scenarios towards deep emissions reductions. It also states: “Working collaboratively with Indigenous peoples by supporting their on-going implementation of climate change initiatives will be key. Consultations with Indigenous communities must respect the constitutional, legal, and international obligations that Canada has for its Indigenous peoples”, and “ Canada will need to fundamentally transform all economic sectors, especially patterns of energy production and consumption. Over time, this requires major structural changes to the economy and the way people live, work, and consume.”

Title: Canada's Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Understanding the Trends, 1990 - 2006
Description: This report is a companion document to Canada's National Inventory Report: Greenhouse Gas Sources and Sinks in Canada, 1990-2006 (NIR) and provides additional analysis on the underlying trends that have been shaping Canada's total Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions since 1990. While the NIR provides a comprehensive inventory of Canada's greenhouse gas emissions consistent with International Panel on Climate Change methodologies, this report attempts to develop discussion points that provide additional insight into factors that may impact future emission levels in Canada,by providing a review of the primary economic, technological and other societal drivers that have contributed to the country's emissions trends for the period between 1990 and 2006. It also compares emissions from 1990 to 2006 with the 1980-1990 period. Note Tables 1 and 3, related to construction.

Title: Canada's Emission Trends 2013
Description: In releasing the 2013 Emissions Trends report in October, the Canadian government stated: “as a result of the combined efforts of federal, provincial and territorial governments, consumers and businesses, GHG emissions in 2020 will be 734 megatonnes (Mt). This is 128 Mt lower than where emissions would be in 2020 if no action were taken to reduce GHGs since 2005.” (The report did not state that it is also 122 Mt above Canada’s target level of 612 Mt.) The government will maintain its current course of regulating emissions on a sector-by-sector basis. Previous reports of 2011 and 2012 are also available online, as well as French versions.

P.J. Partington of the Pembina Institute states: "The progress reflected in this year's emissions trends report is largely the result of updated baselines and accounting rules for greenhouse gas pollution, as well as the considerable action some provinces are taking to reduce their emissions."
