Wall doesn`t like cap-and-trade system
With more provinces joining "cap-and-trade" systems to cut greenhouse gas emissions, Premier Brad Wall is standing steadfast that it`s not right for Saskatchewan.
On Monday, Ontario and Quebec agreed to a bilateral system -- potentially in place by 2010 -- that will cap emitters and allow for those above the cap to buy credits from those below.
Premiers Dalton McGuinty and Jean Charest echoed comments heard from British Columbia and Manitoba`s leaders at the Western Premiers Conference last week that such a system is the wave of the future.
