This week, I have been fortunate to meet with the Canadian delegation at three occasions. Also, I was able to witness a dialogue between Environmental Non-Governmental Organizations (ENGO’s) and the Canadian delegation that was somewhat fruitful and resulted in an outcome that some qualified as positive. Indeed, Canada’s moderate general stance regarding the way the review of the Kyoto protocol under article 9 should be conducted, may very well be seen as conducive to progress in the post-2012 talks.

But first, let me back track a bit and share with you some of the issues surrounding Article 9—a hot topic subtly echoing through the halls of the Gigiri complex.
