Canada’s environment policy could benefit from a Biden presidency: experts: Gerald Butts, vice-chairman at the political-risk consultancy
Eurasia Group and former principal secretary to Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau, said Biden’s climate policies are the most aggressive any
American presidential candidate has ever proposed.

That includes eliminating fossil fuels from the U.S. power grid by
2050, and using the power of the federal procurement system to spur
growth in electric vehicles.

Butts said Biden’s plan would not
only put pressure on the world, including Canada, to up its climate
game, it opens a “big opportunity to grow the Canadian clean energy and
clean-tech footprint in the United States.”
