  • Re: Bill S-5 
Madam Speaker, the government claims that this modernized legislation will create a right to a healthy environment. That is not the case, according to the senior officials who presented the bill to parliamentarians when it was introduced. Does the member of the governing party agree that this legislation does not go far enough?

  • Re: Bill S-5 
Madam Speaker, the current bill is the same as Bill C-28, which was introduced in the previous Parliament. Does my colleague know why the government chose to call an election before passing the bill? Was it because, for the government, getting a majority was more important than this environmental legislation, or does he think it was because the government needed to get the hon. member re-elected to make it easier to pass the bill?
