The New Democrats are defending their Clean B.C. climate plan after it was revealed that the government's own modelling predicts it will harm the economy. The model suggests that the province's economic output would decrease by $28.1 billion, based on the Clean B.C. Roadmap for 2030. The NDP has disputed this analysis, despite it being derived from the government's own economic modelling. George Heyman, the cabinet minister for the environment and climate change, has dismissed the report as misleading and wrong.
