Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency

The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada is inviting public comment on the proposed Frontier oilsands mine project in northern Alberta.

Alberta's premier says it's possible a proposed reservoir to protect Calgary from floods will have to go back to the drawing board if federal regulators say no or court delays persist.

Conservative Sen. Jean-Guy Dagenais says Environment Minister Catherine McKenna's office tried to plant questions with friendly senators on the Senate's environment committee to help get the government's message across on its new environmental-assessment legislation.

The premiers of two oil-producing provinces called on the Senate to force the Trudeau government’s new environmental assessment regime to take into account the economic benefits of fossil fuel projects.

The much-delayed and politically fraught decision on a proposed multibillion-dollar nuclear-waste storage bunker near Lake Huron now appears certain to fall to Canada's next government.

Lunenburg town council is taking a stand after recent government approval of British Petroleum’s deepwater drilling project 300 kilometres off the coast from this picturesque Nova Scotia community, a UNESCO world heritage site with an economy dependent on tourism and fish.

Once the legislation is adopted, the Trudeau government would be able to remove a group of Harper appointees from their current role in overseeing Canada's energy industry.

After 14 months of consultation, the federal government has released new legislation that changes the name, and restructures, the National Energy Board and Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency.

Suncor Energy says it has started the regulatory process on replacing aging boilers at its oilsands Base Plant with two cogeneration units to lower costs and carbon output.

A new report from Ontario Power Generation overwhelmingly affirms the utility's long-held position that the best place for a nuclear-waste bunker is on the Lake Huron shoreline.

A report affirming the shoreline of Lake Huron as the best place to bury radioactive waste failed to provide information the government had requested, federal environmental authorities say.

The Trudeau government has officially unmuzzled thousands of scientists across Canada. It's been one year... now what?

Over 1,500 young scientists are "concerned" the Trudeau government is lacking scientific rigour in decisions that have significant consequences for public health and the environment.

New research shows that the project proponent gave the government some flimsy evidence that neglected to mention how its proposed gas terminal would harm vulnerable Pacific salmon.

Ten environmental groups have urged Environment and Climate Change Minister McKenna to use her existing powers to assess "many environmentally harmful projects" before approval.
