The Biden Administration is energetically re-engaging on climate change, which presents new opportunities and challenges for policy collaboration between the US and Canada. In this second installment of the Canada-US Climate Policy Series, we take a close look at what that means for the transportation sector.

In both countries, transportation accounts for about one quarter of emissions. Meanwhile, our countries have a history of strong transportation policy coordination as well as highly integrated auto manufacturing sectors.

In this webinar, US and Canadian transport policy experts share insights on how sustainable transport policy in the US and Canada will evolve over the next four years, and where the opportunities for policy collaboration are.
