Welcome to the Business Future Pathways Public Comment Portal. Below you will find information about open and past public comment opportunities relating to the development of Canada’s Sustainable Finance Taxonomy and Climate Transition Planning Guidance.

Before you begin, a few important notes:

• Transparency is an essential part of this process. All submissions made through the portal will be shared publicly on the Business Future Pathways website. This will include the name of the organization making the submission.
• Business Future Pathways welcomes constructive and diverse perspectives on the issues addressed through its public comment processes. We encourage participants to express disagreement, challenge proposals, and raise concerns respectfully and in good faith. To maintain a constructive consultation process, submissions of feedback should focus on the draft report content. Content that can be perceived as demeaning, discriminatory or dehumanizing language, a personal attack, threat, harassment, discriminatory statements, or content that targets individuals or groups rather than their ideas or positions may be rejected. Business Future Pathways reserves the right to decline to publish, remove, or publish only part of any submission or commentary that does not meet these standards.
• To protect your privacy, we will not publish individual names or the email address that you supply with your submission. We request this information for verification purposes only. Please do not include personal or private information in any other fields or in documents that you upload to the portal.
• Once you begin the questionnaire, you will be able to save and resume your progress at any time during the public comment period. You must finish and submit the questionnaire before the feedback period closes.
• You do not have to answer every question in the questionnaire. Feel free to focus only on questions that are of most interest or relevance. Mandatory questions will be marked with an asterisk.
• You will be able to upload complementary documents in PDF format once you have completed all mandatory fields in the questionnaire.
• Should you require support or accommodation to participate in this process, please contact secretariat@businessfuturepathways.ca and we will do our best to meet your needs.
