  7. What is Canada’s GHG Shadow?

  8. Linear Algebra Carl Friedrich Gauss, 1777 - 1855

  9. Leontief Analysis Wassily Leontief, 1906 - 1999

  10. f = Final demand for goods and services within an area of interest x = Total output required to produce final demand vector of goods and services

  11. Ecological Economics Extension

  12. xi = output of industry i produced in order to supply Canadian final demand f Shadow Emissions gi = greenhouse gas emissions intensity of industry i

  13. Multi-Region Input-Output (MRIO)

  14. WIOD Trade Matrices 1995 - 2009

  23. “It is a frightening thought that maneach provinceproductalso has a shadow side” Carl JungBrett Dolter

  24. Can Provinces Co-operate? “Ontario indicated it's willingness to move to stringent California-style emissions standards, but only if Alberta agreed on firm caps on industrial emissions. The idea is anathema to Alberta Premier Ed Stelmach, who says any limits on that province's booming oil and gas industry would cost jobs and hurt the rest of the country. Despite pressure from his colleagues, McGuinty would not commit to automobile standards -- a move that could harm Ontario’s own powerful industry -- without movement from Alberta on caps.” (2007)

  25. Can Canada Co-operate? “I don’t think we should consider signing on to a deal that makes us virtually the sole country in the world that is going to take any action.”
