The Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change is a federal climate strategy adopted in 2016 establishing national approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions while supporting economic growth. The framework includes carbon pricing requirements, clean technology investments, adaptation measures, and emission reduction targets. Municipal implications include infrastructure standards requiring climate resilience, federal climate funding programs municipalities can access, and support for local climate action initiatives. The framework recognizes that municipalities control significant emission sources and are frontline for climate adaptation. Federal climate policy shapes the context for municipal climate planning while providing funding and coordination for local action.
