2021 Carbonomics Special Report

About the Report

The Carbonomics series is published by Pundit Media in partnership with Postmedia and the National Post. The articles explore the potential economic impacts of the federal government’s climate agenda on the agriculture, transportation and energy sectors and the workforces that power them. The Carbonomics Special Report compiles the articles from the series and expands the coverage with reader survey results, social data, the latest carbon policy news from Postmedia newsrooms and a 6 part Carbonomics podcast series.

The Changing Debate

For decades, the debate about climate change has been bogged down in partisanship. Those days are ending. Action on global warming is happening, and Canada is all-in. The question open for debate now isn't whether, but how.

Agriculture

Can climate policy and agriculture get along in the age of carbon pricing? Canada's farmers have a lot to lose from climate change, but they also stand to be hit hard by climate change policy. Here's how the federal budget tried to address that challenge.

Transportation

The federal carbon tax is making it more expensive for Canadians to get around. But what if your job is getting around? Canada’s 300,000-plus truck drivers put in more miles and burn more fossil fuel than other Canadians – a lot more. And the future of freight transportation in the age of carbon-pricing is anything but clear.

Energy

Adapt or die? The oil-and-gas industry comes around to the carbon way of thinking. Energy industry claims that it supports carbon pricing are sometimes met with skepticism, but Canada’s carbon taxation might be doing the oil-and-gas companies a big favour – if they survive it.

Workforces

A green workers utopia, or an unemployment nightmare? Proponents of carbon taxation foresee the dawn of new clean-energy industries and the creation of millions of green jobs. But will workers in today’s carbon-intensive sectors really be able to make the “green shift”?
