It's concerning that the government is going to take out the explicit mention of air quality. The rationale is that it's because we need to work with the provinces, but when we attempted to put in an amendment that would ensure it is explicitly mentioned that we are committed to working with provinces and territories, the government voted that down.
This amendment simply ensures that air quality will be addressed in the framework. It doesn't tie the government's hands in terms of how that gets done, so I do not support this subamendment.
