Connie Cody Conservative
“I want projects to get built, but this bill just creates more red tape. The government promised a past law would speed up approvals, and it failed. If they believe in this new bill, they should send it to committee so we can look at it closely.”
“Mr. Speaker, Conservatives do support getting projects built. The question is whether Canadians would actually see better results and more results instead of more bureaucracy. Eighteen months ago, Canadians were told that Bill C-5 would speed up approvals to get projects moving. Instead of these things’ moving forward, we are in the House debating Bill C-39. The promises of Bill C-5 still have not materialized. If the Liberals are so confident of Bill C-39, they should be open to having it discussed in committee to provide full transparency and accountability to Canadians. At some point the conversation must shift from promises to results.”
