Despite increased demand for sustainable development in Canada and around the world, the
efforts to change unsustainable growth frameworks have been piecemeal and wholly ineffective.
Neoliberal capitalism and economy-first philosophies supersede efforts at addressing the root causes of climate change and minimal sustainable development strategies. Beginning with Scott
