Paul Boothe and Felix-Antoine Boudreault | The party is over

Now that the Paris Climate Conference is over, it's time for federal and provincial environment ministers to get to work on Canada's climate change plan.

In their op-ed for Maclean's Magazine, Professor Paul Boothe, Director of the Lawrence National Centre for Policy and Management, and Ivey Fellow Felix-Antoine Boudreault share some basic facts to get the discussion rolling on what Canada can do next.

"Climate change is happening now. It is already painfully evident in Canada’s North," they wrote. "While we have a big challenge ahead, we also have the ingenuity we need to succeed. What’s been missing is the collective willingness of political leaders to take real action."
