The prime minister wants Environment Minister Jonathan Wilkinson, pictured, to, among other things, 'implement the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change, while strengthening existing and introducing new greenhouse gas reducing measures to exceed Canada’s 2030 emissions reduction goal and beginning work so that Canada can achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.'The Hill Times photograph by Andrew Meade
