Climate Change

During Question Period on climate change, the Bloc Québécois leader said the government has given up on fighting climate change, pointing to the scrapping of the carbon tax, new oil pipelines, suspended environmental assessments, and dropped greenhouse gas emission caps, and asked whether anyone in the government still prioritizes the environment. The Liberal minister responded that her benches are full of members committed to fighting climate change, citing Canada’s nature strategy, methane regulations, international climate financing, new protected areas in British Columbia, one of the world’s cleanest electricity systems, and tax credits to help provinces build power grids. The exchange also included back-and-forth about the Bloc leader’s record on Anticosti Island and about the former member for Laurier—Sainte-Marie, whom the Bloc leader said had tried unsuccessfully to change the government from within.Written by AI from the debate.
