Canada withdrawing from Kyoto Protocol
None
Canada will formally withdraw from the Kyoto Protocol on climate change, a government official told Reuters on Monday, making it the first nation to pull out of the global treaty.
The news does not come as a surprise, especially since Kent said last month that "Kyoto is the past". The right-of-center Conservatives took power in 2006 and made clear they would not stick to Canada's Kyoto commitments. (Reuters)
