Kyoto
BDO Dunwoody/Chamber Weekly CEO/Business Leader Poll by COMPAS in the Financial Post
“The Kyoto issue is the worst managed policy issue I have seen in 30 years of government,” a comment from a CEO respondent this week, highlights some of this weekly business panel’s sentiment with respect to the Treaty. Canada’s business leaders are certain that Canada will not be able to meet its Kyoto emissions targets and are very concerned about the Government’s proposal to buy $1.5B in credits to make up for the shortfall.

CEOs and business leaders continue to worry about the Treaty’s potential damage to the economy. They give the odds of countries like the United States and Australia ratifying Kyoto less than 3:1.

These are the key findings of this week’s web-survey of business leaders under the sponsorship of BDO Dunwoody and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce for publication in the Financial Post.
