About The Submission:
These are the recommendations to FINA in response to 2025/26 pre-budget consultations:
1. Go beyond the measures made to date and eliminate all subsidies, public financing, and other fiscal supports provided to the oil and gas sector, including petrochemical producers, and ensure that oil, gas and petrochemical companies do not pass on the costs of reducing emissions or environmental clean-up onto the public.
2. Implement a windfall tax on soaring oil and gas profits and redirect that revenue to the communities and families who need it.
3. Implement the necessary regulations and legislation to align Canada’s financial system with the goals of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
4. Accelerate and Expand the Canada Public Transit Fund
5. Establish an ongoing fund dedicated to supporting the development of local packaging reuse systems across Canada, with a focus on the grocery and food service sectors.
6. Deliver on the promises of the Sustainable Jobs Act, invest in workers and communities.
