“This bill lets the government start major projects before environmental reviews are finished. It lets the government look at recommendations later, and then choose to ignore them. The government is just doing whatever it wants.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am sure my colleague agrees with me. Under the new provision of Bill C-39, the government is giving itself the power to start major projects without waiting for the results of the environmental assessment. It will look at the recommendations after, and then it might do something about them, or it might not. Basically, the government is just doing whatever it wants.”
