# Canada Announces Biofuel Incentives, but Industry Demands Stronger Action Against the U.S.

> Canada proposed changes to its Clean Fuel Regulations that would award higher environmental-credit multipliers to biofuels produced domestically, including a proposed 1.3 multiplier for Canadian ethanol and 1.4 for biodiesel. The plan is under public consultation, and local producers said the incentives do not go far enough to address competition from U.S. products.

## Why it matters

If adopted, the credits could favor Canadian biofuel production and support demand for feedstocks such as corn for ethanol and vegetable oils for biodiesel. The price effect depends on the final rules and how much domestic production expands.
