Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for all of his hard work on curbing climate change. Through Northern Affairs, our government has made historic investments of more than $167 million to fund renewable energy, monitor climate change on the land and address the impacts of sea ice change, permafrost melting, flooding and wildfires. We recently announced $300 million to ensure rural, remote and indigenous communities can move off diesel and be powered by clean and reliable energy by 2030. We will keep making those investments and partnering with territories and indigenous governments to do the right thing.
