Canada could be a renewable energy superpower – but our enormous natural resources (wind, tidal, wave, biomass) are grossly underdeveloped. Why? Simple: renewable energy is not yet price competitive. That will change over the long-term, as the cost of carbon increases and regulatory changes are slowly instituted.The environment cannot wait. To address this market failure, we propose the creation of a Canadian Green Bond – a government-backed financial instrument designed to engage the public and accelerate Canada’s transformation into a renewable energy superpower by raising capital for green infrastructure and reducing risk for investment.
