Air Pollution in British Columbia - Pollution Law

Pollution Law

The Canadian Constitution does not clearly specify the level of government that has responsibility for environmental protection in Canada. As such, pollution law in British Columbia is divided among local, regional, provincial, federal and international jurisdictions, each with its own focus and, at times, overlapping concerns. Legislation may be enacted at any of these levels.

    Jesus said to his Jews: “The law was for servants—love God as I love him, as his son! What are morals to us sons of God!”
