%X provincial governments in canada are fundamental actors in redefining climate change strategies for reducing greenhouse gases (ghg) regionally in north america. the government of ontario has shown the capacity for adapting and creating government machinery to build relations with other provinces and u.s. states. its aim has been to articulate local interests to respond to global environmental pressures that demand short-term solutions. the main instruments used to contain ghgs for ontario have been voluntary market mechanisms like cap and trade, the regional integration of energy and transport sectors, and enforcing the law within the province. this article presents ontario's climate strategies and suggests that they can be analyzed using the concept of trans-bioeconomic regions.
