Climate Proof Canada

A panel of experts from Climate Proof Canada will discuss how the Coalition’s recommendations for Community Health & Wellbeing, and Disaster Preparedness & Recovery can drive economic resilience and achieve rapid, tangible progress of the targets within the National Adaptation Strategy.  

We need a defensive game plan to better protect families, improve household affordability and build resilient communities. We need all orders of government working alongside Indigenous governments, First Responders, insurers, home builders and others in the private sector. This panel will outline how Canada can play climate defense.
