Steven Guilbeault has resigned from the Canadian government, citing a shift in climate priorities under Prime Minister Mark Carney. The decision follows a deal with Alberta to allow a new oil pipeline for Asian exports, which Guilbeault argues contradicts previous campaign promises. The agreement includes provincial commitments to carbon capture and methane reduction, but it also features a slower increase in carbon pricing through 2040. Analysis suggests this policy shift could significantly lower Canada's 2030 emissions reduction targets, potentially dropping from a projected 36% reduction to as low as 12% to 15%.
