Natural Resources

During question period on natural resources, the Conservatives said Canada is in a recession and that business leaders view the government’s industrial carbon tax and development rules as barriers to investing in energy projects, and asked whether the government’s plan was to restrict the energy sector. The Liberal minister replied that the government is building projects across the country, including transmission lines in New Brunswick, wind farms in Nova Scotia, nuclear power in Ontario, and pipelines in British Columbia and Alberta.Written by AI from the debate.
