Building Canada Strong Act Second reading of Bill C-39. The bill proposes accelerating major project approvals through a one-year, one-review framework and reforming labour laws.

Statements by Members

Question Period

They emphasize economic growth through nuclear energy jobs and the Churchill Falls project. Additionally, they defend their public safety record, citing criminal justice reforms, and tout investments in precision oncology research and gender equality.
The Bloc opposes Bill C-39, arguing it lowers environmental standards and prioritizes the oil industry over Quebeckers. They condemn the government for undermining workers' rights and using trade tensions as an excuse for permanent rollbacks.
