While Canada claims to be a climate leader, the oil and gas we export to other countries have the potential to produce more emissions in a year than every sector in Canada combined, an independent analysis reveals.

    Does that mean that a country that imports 100% of the oil it burns should be counted as having no emissions?

      No, but since Canada can regulate/limit the oil and gas it exports, this is still a useful number.

      Imports also need to be counted.

      Unfortunately climate change is every country’s responsibility to fix, since every bit helps.
