Closing the gap : carbon pricing for the Paris target.: YN5-186/1-2019E-PDF

"This report provides an estimate of the additional carbon price that would be needed to achieve Canada's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions target in 2030 under the Paris Agreement, as well as an estimate of the corresponding impact on the Canadian economy. The scope of this report is limited. For instance, the report does not assess the policy merits of carbon pricing or alternative approaches to reducing GHG emissions; nor does the report attempt to account for the economic and environmental costs of climate change"--Executive summary, page 1.
