2. Alberta’s response Reduction Targets (2015)Primary Reduction MechanismsLinks to other Jurisdictions 20 Mt by 2020Energy efficiency standards (public sector) Renewable Fuel Standards Sector specific emission performance standard and hard cap for oil sands Carbon “price” of $20.00/tonne across all sectors (Jan. 2017) Methane reduction and verification initiative (voluntary initiatives until 2020) Phase out of coal-fired electricity generation to be replaced by renewables (2/3) and natural gas (1/3) Not at present (current legislation requires carbon offsets to be Alberta-based) BUT recent agreements in principle with MB and NB signal changes to restricting actions to a “made in Alberta” approach 2

Manitoba’s Response Reduction Targets (2015)Primary Reduction MechanismsLinks to other Jurisdictions 33% below 2005 levels by 2030 Geothermal incentive program Emissions tax on coal and petroleum coke Biomass energy support program and fund Public transit strategy and commercial trucking regulations (to allow for the use of wide-base single tires to increase energy efficiency Demand Side Management programs to reduce energy consumption Biofuel requirements Cap and Trade system linked to Membership in the Western Climate Initiative (includes MB, ON, QC and California) – WCI reduction targets are 15% below 2005 by 2020 3

6. IQ About Climate Change Sea ice conditions have changed; the ice is thinner, freezes up later and melts earlier. Similar observations have been made for lake ice. Aniuvat (permanent snow patches) are decreasing in size. There is more rain, and the snow and ice form later in the year and melt earlier. The weather is unpredictable. It changes faster than it used to with storms blowing up unexpectedly. 6

7. IQ About Climate Change Water levels have gone down, making it hard or impossible to travel by boat in certain areas. Temperatures are warmer throughout the year. New species have been observed. The land has been observed to be drier and the stability of the permafrost is changing. The length and timing of the traditional Inuit seasons have changed. 7
