Well, sure, but the downside is that it's a commitment to abandon the status quo. Pretty much all the everything sits on fossil carbon. Very difficult to get the party of the status quo to do that; someone with a lot of leadership skills could, you just pretend that the new thing has been the status quo all along, but that's not who we have in the Federal Liberal party.
I can't think of a single person in Canadian federal politics with meaningful gravitas.
I don't think COVID-19 is going to move the perception of the local maximum; I think the severe food shortages in the middle of this decade might. If the Arctic amplification folks are correct, it's already substantially too late for a smooth landing with respect to the food situation. Getting to a crash some of us walk away from ought to be an every-nerve-and-sinew effort.
