Information Booklet

"Understanding the FCM ICLEI Partners for Climate Protection Program: Key Concerns and a Path Forward for Local Governance"

This 36-page booklet provides an in-depth examination of key concerns surrounding the Federation of Canadian Municipalities' ICLEI Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) Program. It begins by outlining the program’s origins, goals, and milestones, and then critically explores its impact on Canadian municipalities, including challenges related to local autonomy, financial strain, housing, and privacy risks. The booklet advocates for a shift towards localism, focusing on community-centered governance and environmental stewardship aligned with local priorities. Detailed sections analyze Canada's unique environmental context, CO₂'s role, program cost and potential financial liabilities for participating municipalities. A step-by-step guide for withdrawal and a downloadable resolution are included for councils considering an exit from the program.

Download the full booklet to learn about our concerns with the PCP program and steps for municipal withdrawal.
