In recent years, our country, known for its vast landscapes, diverse ecosystems, and abundant natural resources, has been experiencing the profound effects of climate change. Canadian communities are facing extreme flooding, forest fires, high winds, and thawing permafrost more than ever before. These events have a significant impact on our lives and well-being. They also bear major economic consequences, disrupting supply chains, trade, and employment.

Canada is taking steps to improve its resiliency against the impacts of climate change. The federal government, along with provinces and territories, municipalities, and industries invest in strengthening the energy and communication infrastructure, integrating renewable energy sources, improving the built infrastructure and community planning, and protecting the vulnerable Northern regions of the country. Learn more about how CSA Group standards, research, and other initiatives support these efforts.
