In Committee from the Senate of Canada
Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources - April 6, 2017
Senators conduct their clause-by-clause review of Bill S-229. The aim of Independent Senator Grant Mitchell's bill is to enhance underground infrastructure safety by creating a federal underground infrastructure notification system. The committee then returns to its study on the effects of transitioning to a low carbon economy, with testimony from senior government officials from Environment and Climate Change Canada. John Moffet (acting associate assistant deputy minister, Environmental Protection Branch), as well as director generals Matt Jones and Helen Ryan discuss topics such as the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change and the economic impact of meeting Canada's greenhouse gas reduction targets. Sean Keenan (Department of Finance Canada) also testifies. (April 6, 2017)
