AGIF created by Decreto-Lei 12/2018 of 16 February 2018 — coordination and planning only, no firefighting. Prevention rose from 20% of system spending in 2017 to about 54% in 2025; deaths fell from over 100 in 2017 to 6 in 2025. Use ICNF/AGIF figures for national area burned and EFFIS only for EU comparison.

Gazette du Canada — Reglement modifiant l'annexe 2 de la Loi sur la tarification de la pollution causee par les gaz a effet de serre et le Reglement sur la redevance sur les combustibles (DORS/2025-107)
Registered 15 March 2025, in force 1 April 2025. The fuel charge was ZEROED, not repealed — Part 1 of the GGPPA remains law, so a future government could restore it by regulation rather than legislation. Its own RIAS concedes: 'The elimination of the fuel charge and the CCR would generally be expected to benefit wealthier Canadians who tend to use more fossil fuels, whereas lower- and middle-income households would generally be negatively impacted.'

Bureau du directeur parlementaire du budget — Analyse distributive de la redevance federale sur les combustibles (mise a jour)

Fiscal PLUS economic measure: the average household faces a net cost. Both are the PBO's, in the same report, for the same year. Always say which one you are quoting. Counter-intuitively the combined measure is MORE progressive, because higher-income households absorb more of the lost employment and investment income.

Carbon Credits — Carney admet que le Canada manquera ses cibles 2030 et 2035
RELIABILITY CONCERN, flagged 2026-07-16: this article states Canada's 2024 emissions were 'approximately 816 megatonnes', which contradicts Environment and Climate Change Canada's National Inventory Report figure of 685 Mt CO2 eq. The 'Carney admits' framing also could not be traced to a primary source: the underlying December 2025 Radio-Canada interview does not contain the widely quoted wording. Downgraded to tier 3. Prefer the verified 30 June 2026 statement ('The changes we have made will mean that our emissions will be higher...') and the Canadian Climate Institute's February 2026 assessment.

Dossier historique — la strategie sudiste (Goldwater, Nixon/Phillips, Atwater)
