Madam Speaker, not only does this budget not decrease fossil fuel production, but it relies on climate change for future fossil fuel extraction in the Arctic. Équiterre stated, “We are deeply concerned about planned investments in future Arctic offshore oil and gas development.” Greenpeace said, “We are concerned to see new subsidies for oil and gas companies making record profits.” When will Canada stop driving the planet into the ground for the benefit of oil companies?

Madam Speaker, the IPCC has just tabled its synthesis report on climate change, which it called a “survival guide for humanity”. Greenpeace said, “This is the final warning...for this decade [which] will have impacts for thousands of years”. However, the federal budget still provides at least $37 billion in fossil fuel subsidies. Ottawa is still trying to greenwash pollution from dirty energy. When will the federal government realize that its short-sighted budgets risk ruining the planet for thousands of years?
