REUTERS/Blair Gable/File PhotoOTTAWA: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in his first major climate change speech this year, will reach out on Monday to businesses, indigenous groups and citizens for help in defining his ambitious plan to cut carbon emissions, a senior government official said.

"In the coming year, we want to hear from you on how to innovate and transform our economy to keep good jobs here and create new ones," reads an excerpt of Trudeau's speech, which will be delivered on Monday to mining executives meeting at an annual conference in Toronto. Unhappiness with the government's energy and pipeline policy cost Trudeau's Liberals all their seats in Alberta and Saskatchewan - the heart of Canada's so-called oil patch - in last year's election.In recent weeks, indigenous groups across the country have blocked rail lines and roads in solidarity with the Wet'suwet'en in British Columbia, who are fighting to stop a gas line from being built across their land.

Trudeau will cite a January letter by BlackRock Chief Executive Larry Fink, in which the executive forecast a"fundamental reshaping of finance" and said companies must act or face anger from investors over how unsustainable business practices might curb their future wealth.
