Claude DeBellefeuille Bloc Québécois
“The Prime Minister has a bad environmental record. His past environment ministers have left or spoken out against his policies. The Liberals should not brag about this record.”
“Mr. Speaker, if the Prime Minister’s environmental track record had been acceptable, the former minister of the environment, the member for Laurier—Sainte-Marie, would not have stepped down. Nor would his predecessor, the member for North Vancouver—Capilano, have announced his departure too. His predecessor, Catherine McKenna, would not have said that we live in a petrostate where rich oil and gas companies have convinced politicians that fossil fuels are better than renewables. Every environment minister of the past decade is pulling away from the Prime Minister. How can the Liberals possibly brag about his record?”
