Workshop Report
Final Report
The Developing
Sustainable Energy Policy Workshop that took
place on October 22-24, 2006 brought together
many of the best and brightest minds on
sustainable development, energy and global
warming in Canada - an extraordinary assembly of
over 140 business executives, scientists,
academics, government policymakers, consultants,
energy experts, students and non-governmental
organization leaders.
This report outlines their key recommendations
and provides a summary of their discussions at
the workshop. We are hopeful that their
contributions will benefit all Canadians by
assisting the Government of Canada, the
Government of Ontario and municipalities to
develop informed public policy that meets the
challenges of this country’s fast-changing
energy, environmental, climate, economic and
social realities.
We look forward to presenting the workshop’s
findings, ideas and recommendations to political
leaders and government policymakers, and are
committed to offering continued support for
their greenhouse gas reduction efforts.
