Pathways to Competitiveness: How Transition Plans Can Help Canadian Businesses Compete and Grow

Planning for disruption is planning for success.

Business Future Pathways’ inaugural report outlines why climate transition planning is now essential for Canadian competitiveness and investment. In a world of accelerating change, climate disruption is one source of change that businesses can foresee—and prepare for.

The report finds:

  1. Transition plans deliver tangible business benefits. They build internal capacity, strengthen strategy alignment and open access to capital and markets.
  2. Canada is falling behind global peers. Other economies are advancing faster with clear policies and investor expectations for credible transition plans.
  3. A lack of consistent guidance is slowing progress. Canadian investors and companies need a shared, practical definition of what “credible” looks like.

Business Future Pathways was created to close this gap. Our next phase will provide clear, actionable guidance and sector-specific tools to help Canadian businesses plan for resilience and long-term success. Learn more at the links below.
