Pat Kelly Conservative
“The government's rules and delays are blocking hundreds of major projects. This is costing Canadians good jobs. I want the government to approve these projects and start building.”
“Mr. Speaker, he must be really upset with the government that has been in power for the last 11 years. Canadians need results. Hundreds of projects and their applications are waiting for federal approval because the government spent the last 11 years piling on red tape and bad laws that kill high-paying jobs. Last year, the Liberals asked Parliament for extraordinary powers to exempt major projects from its own laws so that projects could be built at unimaginable speeds, and yet nothing has happened and there are no results. When will the Liberals clear the backlog, approve projects, get shovels in the ground and save Canadian jobs?”
