the design of a post-2020 Cap-and-Trade Program. Staff will
present initial thoughts on the scope of amendments, process, and
tentative schedules. There will also be a status update on the
Québec and Ontario cap-and-trade programs.
Following the workshop, stakeholders will have an opportunity to
provide written comments during an informal comment period, which
