WINNIPEG - Manitoba Premier Gary Doer says he would like to see more energy efficiency measures in the federal government's climate change plan that would help consumers save money.

Doer was commenting after a meeting with federal Environment Minister Jim Prentice in Winnipeg.

The meeting was part of federal consultations leading up to the tabling of Ottawa's climate change plan this fall.

Doer says he was happy he got a chance to discuss proposed changes before they're officially tabled.

Prentice says they talked about improving energy efficiency as well as various forms of renewable energy, such as hydroelectricity.

He says Canada will have tabled its plan before the United Nations climate change conference in December.
