OBS

L'objet de la proposition d'un Fonds pour le climat (qui était appelé Fonds éconet dans le discours du budget, qui a été renommé par la suite) serait une société ministérielle pour un mécanisme axé sur le marché et sera l'un des principaux outils du Canada relativement aux changements climatiques.
