“The Liberals are cutting red tape to speed up pipeline construction. They're ditching the rules, the focus on reducing greenhouse gases, and social acceptance. Just because Canada has oil, that doesn't mean we should throw out all the regulations. But that's what the Liberals are doing. They just want to make money off of oil and gas. If there is any Liberal who still cares about the environment, they need to ask themselves why they're still in this party.”

Climate Change
A debate about the Liberals wanting to build more oil pipelines and cut regulatory red tape to speed up construction. The Liberals insist they care about the environment and fighting climate change despite their push for more fossil fuel infrastructure. The Bloc argues this vision is stuck in the 19th century.
“I want to protect the environment. I want our government to fight climate change. We have a nature strategy. It's a big investment. We put in methane rules. People in other countries think we're doing well. We want to keep going. I hope other people will agree and support us.”
“You promote the monarchy and oil. Canada's future is dirty fossil fuels. Some Conservatives should join you. Why are Liberals who still care about climate change not quitting?”
“We are fighting climate change. We will stay the course. Look, we have an auto strategy. We will reduce greenhouse gases and create jobs. We are protecting nature. We have methane regulations to reduce emissions by 400 megatonnes. We are getting the job done.”
“The Liberals are ignoring their own climate law. Now they're scrapping pipeline rules to build faster. The Liberals set a 2050 net zero target but they will fail. It's their own fault.”
“Quebeckers know big energy projects are good for the economy. We'll keep building them. We're also spending on the Contrecoeur port project. My colleague's riding has a port too.”
