OTTAWA – Federal government ministers welcome the election of Joe Biden as the next US president as an opportunity to advance the fight against climate change.
Environment Minister Jonathan Wilkinson and Infrastructure Minister Catherine McKenna were among those who specifically mentioned climate change as they took to Twitter to welcome Biden’s victory over Donald Trump.
McKenna, who had previously served as Canada’s environment minister, appeared to have covertly shot the Trump administration by describing the past four years as “long, hard work” when it came to fighting climate change.
Biden promised that one of his first actions after being sworn in as president on January 20 will be to get the US back into the Paris climate deal after the Trump administration officially left the treaty last week.
