“We are not getting rid of environmental rules with this bill. We are just making the review process faster. Our relationship with the United States has permanently changed, and Canada must adapt to that reality.”
“Mr. Speaker, I disagree with that; that is not what we are doing. Give me a break. What we are doing is speeding up the process. We are not scrapping regulations. We are speeding up the way in which regulations are reviewed. I want to add one final point. This is not an excuse. It is not because of Trump. This is the reality. The U.S. administration has irreversibly changed the Canada–U.S. relationship. We must adapt to this new world. It is not an excuse. It is not something that will magically disappear in 2029. It will not disappear.”
