The Supreme Court of Canada’s recent decision on the constitutionality of the Impact Assessment Act has generated a lot of questions – and political commentary – about the federal government’s jurisdiction over environmental issues. How will the Court’s opinion impact the future of climate policy in Canada, especially as the government faces pushback from provinces?

Join top environmental lawyers Anna Johnston, David V. Wright and Anna McIntosh for an informative discussion of the judgment and what it means for climate action. As interveners in the case, these legal experts will share their perspectives on the shifting landscape for reviewing climate impacts in assessments, as well as the implications for new and existing climate policies like the government’s planned oil and gas emissions cap.

The webinar will also include a discussion and Q&A.
