Does a failure of one province to control the deleterious effects of GHGs emitted in other provinces endanger the interests of other provinces?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Reference re Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act, 2019 ONCA 544 (CanLII):

The inability of one province to control the deleterious effects of GHGs emitted in others, or to require other provinces to take steps to do so, means that one province’s failure to address the issue would endanger the interests of other provinces: cf. Schneider v. The Queen, at p. 131. This speaks to the singleness, distinctiveness and indivisibility of the matter.
