Isra-Mart srl news:

The Conservatives are the only party not buying offsets for the carbon footprint of their leader's tour during the federal election campaign.

The four other major parties are buying offsets from established Canadian companies. The Bloc Québécois and the New Democratic Party are purchasing theirs from Planetair in Montreal, while the Liberals and Greens are working with Carbon Zero in Toronto.

When asked about the decision not to buy offsets for the campaign tour, the Conservatives replied in a email to CBC News that they will focus their environmental efforts on clean energy projects across the country, such as the Lower Churchill hydroelectric project in Labrador.
