Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney signed an agreement with the province of Alberta to roll back several major federal climate rules in a bid to spur investment in energy production. The deal includes scrapping a planned emissions cap on the oil and gas sector and dropping clean electricity regulations. The government aims to diversify exports away from the United States and boost the Canadian economy amid international trade uncertainty. Alberta, in turn, committed to strengthening industrial carbon pricing and supporting a massive carbon capture-and-storage project. The move was heavily criticized by environmentalists, leading to the resignation of the former environment minister, who argued the national climate plan was being dismantled.
