معرفی
Tracy Snoddon is a Professor at the Lazaridis School of Business and Economics, Wilfrid Laurier University. Her expertise spans public economics, fiscal federalism, and climate policy analysis. She focuses on the fiscal dimensions of climate change policy, intergovernmental grants, and equalization programs in Canada. Her research explores how federal-provincial fiscal frameworks influence climate policy implementation, carbon pricing mechanisms, and regional economic equity.
Her work emphasizes strategic interactions between governments, the regional incidence of climate policies, and the challenges of coordinating carbon pricing across provinces. Notable contributions include analyzing federal-provincial transfers, the treatment of carbon taxes in equalization programs, and the economic impacts of climate change mitigation strategies. Her publications frequently address the practicalities of achieving Canada-wide carbon pricing systems and resolving fiscal conflicts arising from climate policy.
Snoddon’s research also touches on broader fiscal federalism issues, including intergovernmental grants structures, tax coordination challenges, and the distributional effects of climate policies. While no specific awards are highlighted here, her extensive publication record demonstrates sustained engagement with critical policy debates in environmental and public economics.
Her advising focus aligns with graduate students interested in fiscal policy, environmental economics, and intergovernmental relations. Office hours are currently by appointment only, and she can be reached at tsnoddon@wlu.ca.
