Mr. Speaker, while the European Union has already announced more stringent targets for the second phase of the Kyoto protocol, the Prime Minister is hiding and refusing to go to Helsinki, under false pretences. As a result, Canada will be one of the only participants in Nairobi whose position is unknown.
Does the Minister of the Environment not find it strange that, even though she is co-chair of the conference, she cannot tell us what message she will deliver in Nairobi?
