We need policy certainty for investment and emissions reduction

Robert Asselin believes that carbon pricing is an efficient strategy for emissions reductions but he raises concerns about government policies that have impacted predictability and certainty. He shares his perspective in multiple news articles about regional carve outs to Canada’s carbon pricing regime.

“It provides businesses a predictable framework for investments going forward. And it’s the most efficient way to reduce emissions. That’s just basic economics.”

“Once it has been subject to arbitrary exemptions, the policy instrument will no longer be effective.”
