Kyoto Protocol - CBC reports

A blurb from CBC breaking news:

The federal government released the specific details of its
much-anticipated emissions plan Thursday, requiring most of Canada's
industries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by 18 per cent in
three years. The new plan means Canada will be at least eight years
behind meeting its requirements under the international Kyoto Protocol.

There is a good analysis of the issue from CBC's In-Depth series , but the Library of Parliament has released its own studies, including the Brief The Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism. Salient speeches from Parliament and further reading can be found on LEGISInfo.
