Dr. Louise Comeau, Co-interim Executive Director of the Conservation Council of New Brunswick (CCNB) issued the following statement with respect to the Caribou Mine contaminated site.
We applaud the federal government’s move today to make it easier and more affordable for Canadians to get behind the wheel of a zero-emitting, electric vehicle.
The provincial air quality data released today show too many exceedances of sulphur dioxide at pulp and paper mills in Northern New Brunswick (Edmundston and Atholville) and of particulate matter in Saint John. While New Brunswick meets most of the current Canadian standards, it needs to do more to ensure industrial polluters get on track to meet improved national air quality standards for 2025.
