On May 6, 2009, Prime Minister Harper signed a Summit Declaration with the European Union. The communique states that Canada and the EU will provide their "fair share" of financial support for climate action in developing countries. The Pembina Institute sent a letter to Prime Minister Harper to thank him for this commitment and to present our interpretation of Canada's "fair share".
