“New science shows climate change is getting much worse because of fossil fuels. The government should not be building new oil and gas pipelines.”

“Mr. Speaker, on Thursday, 70 scientists from 17 countries updated the climate change data from the IPCC, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The Paris Agreement’s global warming target is no longer achievable. Sea levels continue to rise at twice the previous rate, and the number of days with extreme marine heat has tripled. What is to blame? Well, it is fossil fuels. What is the government doing? It is building a new pipeline and new gas pipelines without conducting an environmental assessment. How can the Liberals follow the Prime Minister in this madness?”

“The Prime Minister is ignoring science and his own advisors on the environment. He is only listening to American oil and gas companies. He keeps the power to build pipelines that make those companies rich. We do not want this.”

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is not listening to the science when it comes to the environment, just as he does not listen to his former environment ministers, his net-zero advisory body, whose members have resigned, or even his own members, according to media reports. He does not listen to anyone except the interests of American oil and gas company owners. He is keeping all the power in his own hands to build pipelines that line the pockets of Americans. If this is the strong Canada that the Liberals want to build, then do they realize that we are going to pass on that?”
