That would be good, but I was reading the budget, and I really don't see a sense of urgency at all. I see a lot of aspirational talk.
There's going to be a new tax credit, and they quote that the Department of Finance will be engaging “with experts to establish” this. On “Expanding the Low Carbon Economy”, it says, “Greater collaboration on climate action between all orders of government”. On “Building Capacity to Support Green Procurement”, it says that Public Services and Procurement Canada “will develop new tools, guidelines and targets”. I mean, this would be a great budget in 2004—2006 was in the Harper years, and they weren't interested in the climate—or budget 2015 or budget 2019.
It's either a code red for humanity or it's business as usual. Why am I seeing aspirational language? I'm not seeing, “Yes, this is a code red and there's a rapidly closing window.” I don't hear a sense of a rapidly closing window from you. I see lots of, “Yes, we're going to have consultations, we're going to meet experts, we're going to talk with people, and we're going to get to this better future.”
Why is it not telling us exactly where those investments are, how soon and what we're going to do to meet this? Either it's an emergency, or it's not true.
