Perspectives on Climate Change Action in Canada

In 2015, Canada’s provincial and federal auditors general agreed to work together to examine government responses to climate change. Coordinated audits were undertaken in 2016, and a collaborative report was published in 2018.

The overall objective of this collaborative project was to assess whether the federal, provincial, and territorial governments met their commitments to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to the effects of climate change. From 2016 to 2018, audit offices, including the Provincial Auditor of Saskatchewan's Office, carried out this work and issued reports to their respective legislatures: nine provincial reports, three territorial reports, and three chapters by the federal Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development.

In March 2018, the project culminated in the tabling in Parliament of a summary report called Perspectives on Climate Change Action in Canada: A Collaborative Report from Auditors General.
