Rebuilding the Economy Business Recovery in the USA and Canada

The federal government, in cooperation with various levels of government, Indigenous peoples, experts, and stakeholders, will update the Strategy on a regular basis, with the next update scheduled for 2030. Associated action plans will be prepared on a five-year cycle to allow for adequate implementation, evaluation of results, and consideration of projected climate consequences. The federal government will lead the development of progress reports midway through the Strategy's cycles, based on actions across the country. The progress reports will give a picture of collective progress toward the Strategy's goals, objectives, and targets;

guide policy and investment decisions; and promote transparency and accountability to the general public



A timeline detailing Canada's potential adaption cycle from 2021 to 2030 and beyond.
Figure 5 shows the timetable for the National Adaptation Strategy. The acronym "FPT" stands for Federal-Provincial-Territorial. National Knowledge Assessments are prepared over a multi-year period; the most recent series on Canada's climate, impacts, adaptation, and resilience included Canada's Changing Climate Report, the National Issues Report, and the Health of Canadians in a Changing Climate, among others.

The Strategy will stay current on our understanding of climate change risks.

The changing environment has put us in an unusual situation. The Strategy is based on current scientific research, risk assessments, and Indigenous Knowledge Systems. Assessments have been contributed by the federal, provincial, territorial, and local governments, as well as Indigenous Peoples and groups, the commercial sector, non-governmental organizations, academia, and other climate change specialists. Up-to-date and easily accessible information on present and expected climate change threats will continue to guide the Strategy's implementation and future modifications to the Strategy and action plans.

Implementation of the National Adaptation Strategy.
To achieve the Strategy's goals and objectives, whole-of-society activity and government coordination are required. Geographically, Canada is the world's second largest country, and it is experiencing climate change in a variety of ways. Local and regional adaptation plans are in place in many parts of the country, allowing them to determine priorities and progress action based on the most pressing threats and local circumstances. At the national level, a series of action plans will be prepared to better coordinate action and increase support for local initiatives, all while respecting the jurisdiction and obligations of various levels of government and right holders.

Federal activities.

The Government of Canada has created an action plan, the Government of Canada Adaptation Action Plan, that describes how the federal government will assist the Strategy's implementation. It describes the federal role in promoting resilience and provides a complete list of federal adaptation activities.

The federal action plan will be updated on a regular basis and guided by this strategy




- Streamline federal adaptation initiatives, including climate change science and information. - Link adaptation to other commitments, such as biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation. - Integrate adaptation into policies and programming, including strengthening governance mechanisms between governments and sectors.
Provincial and Territorial Actions

Many sectors crucial to attaining our common climate change resilience goals fall within the control of provincial and territorial governments. They are in charge of setting the direction for a wide range of climate change adaptation strategies under their jurisdiction. Provinces and territories are at different stages of climate change readiness. Most have conducted risk assessments for climate change, many are advancing adaptation through larger climate change initiatives, and some have begun to implement specialized adaptation action plans. Annex B contains further information on climate change adaptation strategies in each jurisdiction.

To increase climate change resilience for all Canadians, governments must harmonize their policies and programs. This will enable increased efforts, guarantee that adaption measures are provided efficiently, and make better use of public funds. The Strategy intends to alter how Canadian governments collaborate to promote climate change resilience.

Federal-provincial-territorial cooperation




Federal-provincial and federal-territorial action plans will be designed to respect and adapt to local conditions, the various climate risks faced by each region, and the varying levels of readiness in each province and territory. This method will aid regional implementation of the Strategy by reflecting the various risks and stages of adaption advancement in each province and territory. This strategy will make it easier for multiple levels of government to coordinate, cooperate, and share best practices. Bilateral action plans will support the Strategy's aims and objectives, as well as the province and territorial governments' climate change adaptation priorities.

Indigenous-led action

First Nations, Inuit, and Métis are already at the forefront of Canada's efforts to adapt to the effects of climate change, and they are developing climate-change policies and activities to establish a long-term vision for community and regional adaptation. These include national, regional, and community-level plans and activities that take into account the different situations and priorities of Indigenous Peoples across the country. Indigenous Peoples develop, deliver, and determine adaptation actions in their communities and territories, making them more effective, meaningful, and long-lasting. Annex C contains a comprehensive overview of Indigenous climate change policies and actions.
