Investments in infrastructure, worker training, and innovation are all vital components of this long-term prosperity plan.
By prioritizing investments in clean growth technologies and scaling homegrown solutions, Canada will position its companies to lead the global market. Leveraging Canadian clean tech will reduce emissions intensity across all sectors, addressing climate change while together unlocking new economic opportunities internationally.
Canada is uniquely positioned to lead the historic transformation towards low-carbon energy, fostering job growth and improving affordability for all Canadians. This strategy will establish a competitive advantage, setting Canada on a path towards a more resilient economic and environmental future - building a Canada Strong for generations to come.
