Mr. Speaker, enough of the political games. The Minister of Environment and Climate Change today is responding to questions from the Bloc and the NDP citing his approval of Baie du Nord, when he knows he is setting a net-zero condition that will not worth the paper it is printed on if we emit up to 100 coal-fired power plants in the year before we even get to that point. He cites the IPCC when he knows full well it has said that investing in projects like this is a moral and economic madness. Production would not even start until 2028. When will the government realize that being a climate leader means investing in a just transition for workers and not in caving to the oil and gas lobby?
