Trudeau heads to Europe for a 6 days trip

Share On

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is embarking on a six-day trip to Europe.

He'll attend planned climate discussions at the upcoming G-20 summit and United Nations COP 26 meeting.

It's the first time Trudeau will be at a COP meeting since the Paris agreement was signed just weeks after he first became prime minister in 2015.

Catherine Abreu, executive director of Destination Zero, says there's been a growing recognition of the disconnect between Canada's climate promises and actual progress.

Canada's emissions have risen more than three per cent since 2016, the most of any G-7 nation.
