Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Environment committee Yes. We used the most recently available information from Environment Canada on Canada's emission trends. The modelling for that—I'm just reading here from the report itself —was completed in December 2010.

Environment committee Our audit report was based on a number of different pieces of information and primarily on the emissions trends report.
May 8th, 2012Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee That would have to be directed to Environment Canada. It was partly based on the National Inventory Report and Environment Canada's own projections.
May 8th, 2012Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee No, I'm sorry. The 2009 report you're referring to is Canada's National Inventory Report, I believe, and that was just published in April of this year for 2010 data.
May 8th, 2012Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee It was in part, but it was mostly based on the Canada's Emissions Trends document, which was released by Environment Canada just last July.

Kimberley Leach
Environment committee Our report or...?
May 8th, 2012Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee Actually, I believe I've answered that question. It was the information from 2009 from the National Inventory Report, but also from Environment Canada's national emissions trends report.
May 8th, 2012Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee That is because Environment Canada did not include that information.... I'm sorry—for the coal-fired regulations, the information from Environment Canada was included in those projections.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee In our audit in 2010, we noted in paragraph 4.23 that INAC had used alternative approaches at negotiation tables when negotiation appeared to be stalled. We noted, for example, the then INAC proposed steps the aboriginal group could take to better outline its position to enhance a better understanding, and that this particular group had accepted this proposal to present its work to the department for response in the coming months.

Environment committee Exhibit 1.8 lists all of the measures and costs. They were included in the 2010 climate change plan. There are measures here that have greenhouse gas emissions associated with them. Those are the first 19 that are listed. There are another 15 measures listed in the 2010 plan that do not have greenhouse gas emissions associated with them.
October 4th, 2011Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee Exhibit 1.8 tells you what the money is per measure, and exhibit 1.3, earlier in the chapter, lists the reductions that have been both estimated and achieved.
October 4th, 2011Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee The only thing I would add is that each of the measures has its own expenditure management system within each of the respective departments, so what we found was missing was the overall picture.
October 4th, 2011Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee Certainly. Starting in paragraph 1.3(2), we look at several of the recommendations that we made in our 2009 audit. We comment on the extent to which the government had acted on those recommendations. We found that in the two cases we looked at, they had provided additional information on the plan that helped address those recommendations.
October 4th, 2011Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee All I would add is that the 2010 and the more recently published 2011 climate change plan do list some of the initiatives the provinces are taking, in one of the annexes of the climate change plan. But certainly it doesn't amount to the $1.5 billion that was allocated.
October 4th, 2011Committee meeting
Kimberley Leach
Environment committee Yes, that's right. It's exhibit 1.9, which outlines some of the assurance standards that are related to greenhouse gas verification, monitoring, and reporting. There are a number of initiatives that are under way. It's certainly an evolving matter internationally. The two standards that we looked at specifically were the ISO standards, ISO 14064 and ISO 14065, as they are most related to the projects and programs we were looking at.
