“A politician from another party is quitting because he says his party isn't green enough. I don't think their party is green at all. I want voters who care about the environment to vote for my party instead.”
What they said. What they meant.

The Environment
In this debate, the Bloc Québécois called out the Liberals for not doing enough on climate change, noting a Liberal MP quit over the government's oil-friendly policies. The Liberals shot back that the Bloc leader previously supported oil drilling, and insisted all Liberal MPs are environmental champions. Mostly partisan sniping with little substance.
“Don't look at our failing environmental promises. You once did a bad oil thing too! Your whole party agreed with it, right?”
“Don't look at our record. A Liberal environmental caucus talked a big game but hasn't done anything! They're useless.”
“I want to cheer for my team. We are on the good side. We will spend money to fight climate change. We really care about the environment.”
