The Environment

Question period focused on the environment, with the Bloc Québécois raising concerns about legislation affecting environmental assessments of pipelines and energy projects (referred to as Bill C-39). Patrick Bonin said the bill removes impact assessments for pipelines and would let the government set aside environmental laws for oil projects, calling it the worst bill for the environment in Canadian history, and argued the tariff situation was being used to justify it. Julie Dabrusin, for the government, said environmental regulations were not being weakened, that fighting climate change requires doubling the electricity grid and building clean energy projects such as those Hydro-Québec is pursuing, and invited the Bloc Québécois to support that plan.Written by AI from the debate.
