Limited	Canadian Utilities Ltd offers only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. The company names broad policy areas and, on one occasion, a specific measure—the federal “Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act”—but otherwise refers only generally to topics such as carbon pricing and hydrogen regulation, leaving most of its actual policy focus unidentified. It describes the way it engages in very general terms, saying it “engage[s] with all levels of government to advocate for enabling policy and regulation,” “provid[es] relevant information, perspectives, and recommendations on policy and regulatory proposals,” and participates in “technical and advisory working groups,” yet it does not identify which departments, agencies, or elected officials it contacts or whether this occurs through meetings, letters, or formal submissions. The firm’s objectives are likewise high-level: it seeks “greater fiscal, regulatory and policy certainty” and “government policies and regulatory mechanisms that reduce emissions in a pragmatic, reliable, and cost-effective manner,” but it does not spell out the concrete legislative amendments, targets, or regulatory thresholds it wishes to see adopted. Taken together, these disclosures confirm that the company lobbies on climate issues but provide only cursory information about which policies it addresses, how it lobbies, and what specific outcomes it pursues.
