Summary

Canada's climate policy is caught between political pressures and environmental needs.

The article argues that pricing carbon below the actual damage it causes merely postpones costs rather than avoiding them, and that Alberta's emissions (roughly a quarter of Canada's total) remain inadequately priced.
