We have six paragraphs in front of us in this preamble, and I would suggest, Mr. Chair, very simply, it's a political statement. It's not about getting results for Canadians.
What I'm concerned with in this bill is the first paragraph, which simply states that companies can buy their way to pollute, and Canadians have to pay the price, the same as they've paid the price for the last 13 years of inaction, with nothing being done--and I'm ashamed.
