Oral Questions

Climate Change

The One Canadian Economy Act was debated during Oral Questions. However, the discussion focused on reports that the Liberals plan to dismantle the regulatory framework for pipelines. The Bloc Quebecois criticized this move, arguing it will weaken environmental protections. The Liberals defended their climate record, touting international financing and investments in clean energy. The debate devolved into bickering over unrelated provincial matters like high-speed rail rather than the substance of the actual bill.
