Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister tried to get Angela Merkel to have the G-8 partners reduce his Kyoto obligations. He said, and I quote:
We need a plan that takes into account both different starting points and different national circumstances.
Is the Prime Minister's request not ironic, since we know that in creating its green plan, the government has refused to take into account the specific past efforts of Quebec and the manufacturing sector to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions?
