Current Activities

CCME enjoys the comparative advantage of undertaking work that no one else can do, or work to which it can provide a unique contribution or is particularly suited.

CCME does not duplicate the efforts of others. Items on the CCME agenda must be Canada-wide and intergovernmental in nature, and of interest to a significant portion of CCME member jurisdictions. To focus its resources and make real progress, CCME limits its agenda to a small number of issues per year.

CCME’s current strategic priorities are:

• Managing and preventing pollution of air, water and land
• Reducing waste and moving towards a circular economy 
• Advancing climate initiatives, including a low-carbon economy 
• Advancing and collaborating on emerging environmental issues and opportunities
