Discussion · Government Orders
Arnold Viersen Conservative
“I want the member to explain how this bill is different from the one we passed last year. That law promised fast approvals, but over 500 projects are still waiting. Past government laws also cancelled 14 gas projects and nine pipelines.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am interested in knowing from the member what the differences are between this bill and Bill C-5. We passed Bill C-5 a year ago, and we were expecting projects to be built with lightning speed. I know there are over 500 projects on the list now that have not been approved. I am wondering what the difference is. I am also wondering if the member has any comments about Bill C-69 and Bill C-48. Those bills had the effect of cancelling 14 LNG projects in the country and nine pipelines.”
