We want to see a regime that would have binding targets on all the big countries. Canada is responsible for 2%, well beyond our share on a per capita basis, and we are prepared to go first to provide real leadership.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"789113\" data-originallang=\"en\"> We have set aggressive targets, but we also want to get countries such as the United States, China and India on board. I am also going to work hard to get the premier of Ontario, Dalton McGuinty, on board, because we want to help him close all those coal-fired plants, as he promised to by this year.</p>",

Nous voulons un r\u00e9gime qui imposerait des cibles obligatoires \u00e0 tous les grands pays. Le Canada est responsable de 2 p. 100 des \u00e9missions, ce qui d\u00e9passe de beaucoup notre part en proportion du nombre d'habitants, et nous sommes pr\u00eats \u00e0 prendre l'initiative afin d'assurer un r\u00e9el leadership.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"789113\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous avons fix\u00e9 des cibles ambitieuses, mais nous d\u00e9sirons \u00e9galement rallier des pays comme les \u00c9tats-Unis, la Chine et l'Inde. Je vais \u00e9galement travailler fort pour obtenir l'appui du premier ministre de l'Ontario, Dalton McGuinty, car nous voulons l'aider \u00e0 fermer toutes les centrales thermiques aliment\u00e9es au charbon, comme il l'a promis, d'ici la fin de l'ann\u00e9e. </p>"
