WATCH: Vancouver city council has approved a Climate Emergency Action Plan that could see a toll placed on all vehicles entering the downtown core. It's said to be part of a drive to make Vancouver one of the greenest cities in the world. Another section of the plan proposes a carbon pollution surcharge on gas or diesel vehicles.
