The federal government is offering bridge financing for large Canadian businesses (annual revenues of approximately $300 million or more) across all sectors to help them keep employees on the payroll through the global pandemic. To obtain the bridge financing, companies receiving the loans must publish an annual climate related financial disclosure report, highlighting how corporate governance, strategies, policies and practices will help manage climate-related risks and opportunities – and how these measures contribute to achieving Canada’s commitments under the Paris Agreement and its goal of net zero by 2050.
