1/3 Canada spoke at the Baku High-Level Dialogue on Adaptation today — solid words, but no real movement.
Plenty of references to the UAE Framework for Climate Resilience, indicators, the adaptation policy cycle, cooperation, etc.
All accurate and constructive — but very procedural.

Insiders say Mark Carney and Donald Trump discussed reviving Keystone oil pipeline
The official said Trump was receptive to the pipeline as the leaders spoke about possible energy-sector co-operation between Canada and the U.S.

Meanwhile, Enbridge’s CEO just called again (during a speech in Toronto) for industrial pricing to end, which is another reminder that the oil and gas industry is not serious about carbon capture, and Carney will need to play hardball if he is.
