Will a Liberal Canada affect US public policy on AGW?

What Canada’s New Liberal Government Means for the U.S.

A lot of interesting speculation covering a lot of areas. I've selectively excerpted the article to focus on a few areas of personal interest.

Quote:

...Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has promised to run budget deficits to fund a stimulus package aimed at updating Canada’s infrastructure and pumping life into its economy, which is currently in recession. A stimulus package could mean greater economic opportunities for American businesses in Canada, which buys more American exports than any other country. ...Trudeau has promised new investment in clean energy and to take action on climate change, though what, exactly, that might mean is unclear. Under a Liberal government, Canada is likely to be a more agreeable negotiating partner for countries seeking to make significant emissions cuts to fight climate change—Trudeau has committed to taking part in the Paris climate conference set for later this year...

So will a progressive Canadian government influence and emphasize progressive public policies in the U.S., particularly with regard to climate change action?
