The US and Canada will align policies and goals to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, said US President Joe Biden on Tuesday (local time) during his first bilateral meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.At the virtual meet, President Biden said, "We're launching a high-level climate ambition ministerial and to align our policies and our goals and to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050."According to New York Post, President Biden said that he and Trudeau agreed to work together to counter China's influence and to combat racism and global warming.However, the two world leaders did not mention their disagreement on Biden's post-inaugural executive action ending the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada to the US, costing thousands of jobs on both sides of the northern border, New York Post reported.Last month, Trudeau said he was "disappointed" by Biden's move to revoke a permit for the pipeline. Trudeau had said he "spoke directly" to Biden about the USD 8 billion projects in November, and other Canadian officials "made the case" in favor of it "to high-level officials in the incoming administration, New York Post reported."We both recognize our responsibility as leading democracies to defend our shared values around the world and to strengthen our own democracies at home," Biden said.The President further said, "That includes rooting out systemic racism and unconscious bias in our institutions and our laws, as well as our hearts. Today, we agreed to reestablish the cross-border crime forum and work together to modernize our approach to community safety, and to do all -- the most, the most we can do more to take on racism and discrimination in both our systems."Biden said he and Trudeau "agreed to work together on an inclusive recovery" from the COVID-19 pandemic by "using the tools available through the small and medium enterprise chapter of our trade agreement to support women and minority-owned businesses."Meanwhile, Biden and Trudeau said they would like to work together on global warming."We also double-downed on our efforts to tackle climate change, It was really, really encouraging. Now that the United States is back in the Paris Agreement, we intend to demonstrate our leadership in order to spur other countries to raise their own ambitions," Biden said."Canada and the United States are going to work in lockstep to display the seriousness of our commitment at both home and abroad. To that end, we're launching a high-level climate ambition ministerial to align our policies and our goals and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050," New York Post reported Biden's goal which he previously stated in his presidential campaign.Biden also called on China to release two jailed Canadians, Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig, New York Post reported."Human beings are not bartering chips. And we're going to work together until we get their safe return," Biden said.Moreover, the Canadian prime minister told Biden, "thank you again for stepping up in such a big way on tacking climate change. US leadership has been sorely missed over the past years."( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
