Canada 2026
加拿大
Canada enters 2027 with electricity that is largely non-emitting, an oil and gas sector that still produced 30% of national emissions in 2024, a freshwater endowment that is vast in total but thin where people live, and a hazard regime in which 野火, hail, flood and ice storms now set the pace of losses. National emissions were 685 Mt CO₂e in 2024, 10.3% below 2005 and almost unchanged on 2023.

01 · Readings
Canada in six readings.
Six readings that frame the baseline, and the eight questions this edition answers, each with its status and source.
02 · Sectors
Six sectors, one hexagon.
Water first, then Energy, Infrastructure, Food, Health and Biodiversity. Each count is the findings of this edition in that sector: coverage of the evidence, never a score. Infrastructure is not assessed: the edition holds no Infrastructure finding and its coupling matrix does not assess it.
- WAT水1 finding
≈7% Share of the world’s renewable freshwater, long-run mean. □报告值
Abundant in total, scarce where people and farms are; drought on the Prairies and in southern British Columbia is the binding stress.
- ENE能源2 findings
50 Mt CO₂e Electricity-sector emissions, 2024. □报告值
Low-emitting power; emissions concentrated in oil and gas; hydro output exposed to dry years.
- INF基础设施not assessed
Long, thin corridors carry trade; gateways have shown capacity and continuity limits.
- FOO食品0 findings
70 Mt CO₂e Agriculture-sector emissions, 2024. □报告值
A major exporter of grains, oilseeds and potash; yields swing with Prairie drought.
- HLT卫生1 finding
619 deaths Heat-related deaths, 2021 heat dome (BC), 2021. □报告值
Heat and smoke now load the health system each season; 同一健康 signals include H5N1 in poultry and a domestic human case in 2024.
- BIO生物多样性1 finding
13.7% Land in protected and conserved areas, 2023. □报告值
Vast forest and freshwater ecosystems; conservation at about half of the 2030 target.
Outside the six sectors: Climate forcing 3, Finance 2, Systemic 1, Trade 1.
03 · Hazard exposure
The hazards this edition reads.
The edition’s own risk objects, in its order, each read across driver, exposure, vulnerability, capacity, cascade and horizon. The hexagon marks the sectors the cascade reaches; the domain beside each is an editorial reading of its hazard words.

Scenario · SCN-CAN-HDF-01
Western heat, drought and fire year
Under this scenario, results describe a conditional season under stated assumptions. It is not a forecast, and no intervention described here has been carried out.

- 5WAT → FOOcanola and wheat yields fall by a third or more
- 6CLI → INFfire and heat slow rail operations; export delays
04 · Couplings
How the sectors carry risk into each other.
The Canada matrix types the twenty couplings between the five core 系统. Strengths are Nexus estimates from the cited evidence and analogue events; they set the starting graph that the Q1 2027 Foundry cut will test.
| 从 | WAT | ENE | FOO | HLT | BIO |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WAT | · | Strong | Strong | 中等 | Strong |
| ENE | 中等 | · | Strong | Strong | 中等 |
| FOO | 中等 | Weak | · | Strong | Strong |
| HLT | Weak | Weak | 中等 | · | Weak |
| BIO | Strong | 中等 | Strong | 中等 | · |
Water: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Energy: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Food: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Health: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Biodiversity: 4 couplings out, 4 in. Infrastructure is not in the coupling matrix: none of the edition matrices types it, so it carries no value.
Cascade paths, in the edition’s order

All 12 findings
| ID | 版本 | Sector or system | 状态 | Statement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CLI-001 | 加拿大 | CLI Climate forcing | □ 报告值 | National GHG emissions were 685 Mt CO₂e in 2024: 10.3% below 2005 and 0.3% below 2023. |
| FIN-002 | 加拿大 | FIN 金融 | □ 报告值 | Insured catastrophe losses reached a record C$9.1 billion in 2024, then C$2.4 billion in 2025, with 17 catastrophes declared. |
| FIN-003 | 加拿大 | FIN 金融 | □ 报告值 | Insurance has covered about 54% of societal catastrophe losses over 43 years; the long-run loss trend is rising by about 9% a year after inflation. |
| ENE-004 | 加拿大 | ENE 能源 | □ 报告值 | Oil and gas remained the largest emitting sector (208 Mt, 30%, up 1.8%), while methane fell to its lowest level on record (105 Mt CO₂e). |
| ENE-005 | 加拿大 | ENE 能源 | ▲ Inferred | Electricity emitted 50 Mt CO₂e (7.2%). Hydro’s dominance makes multi-year drought a direct risk to supply and to exports. |
| WAT-006 | 加拿大 | WAT 水 | □ 报告值 | Canada holds about 7% of the world’s renewable freshwater; most of it drains north, away from population and agriculture. |
| CLI-007 | 加拿大 | CLI Climate forcing | □ 报告值 | Canada has warmed at about twice the global rate (1.7 °C, 1948–2016), and northern Canada faster still. |
| HLT-008 | 加拿大 | HLT 卫生 | □ 报告值 | The 2021 heat dome caused 619 heat-related deaths in British Columbia, establishing heat as a first-order health–power coupling. |
| BIO-009 | 加拿大 | BIO 生物多样性 | □ 报告值 | Protected and conserved areas covered 13.7% of land and 14.7% of marine territory in 2023, against a 30% target for 2030. |
| CLI-010 | 加拿大 | CLI Climate forcing | □ 报告值 | The 2023 野火 season burned more than 15 million hectares, the largest on record, and 2025 led the record for fire catastrophes declared. |
| TRD-011 | 加拿大 | TRD 贸易 | ▲ Inferred | About three-quarters of goods exports go to the United States, so trade policy is the main channel for economic shocks in 2026–2027. |
| SYS-012 | 加拿大 | SYS 系统性 | ◎ Expert input | The leading compound pathway for 2027 testing runs from heat and drought through hydro shortfall, 野火 smoke and rail disruption into health and food logistics in Western Canada. |
