Is this the end of Canada's climate ambitions?

When Canada elected Mark Carney as prime minister, there was hope that the country would pursue climate policies. That hope was crushed after Carney signed a deal with the oil-producing province of Alberta that will roll back or dilute green regulations.

This week on Zero, Guilbeault tells Akshat Rathi why the Alberta deal was the last straw.
