I'm sorry, guys, but I'm quite disappointed with the Canadian government's approach to this when its main function here is to protect the environment and the people of Canada.

I'd love to sit down with all you MPs in a room and have you explain to me exactly why you think that way, because as a scientist, I can see the reality of the situation. There's no ideology. I don't have a cross to bear. I don't have anything like that. I'm just telling you what's wrong with the planet and what's wrong with what you're planning to do. I think it's irresponsible to try to recycle now. We don't have the technology. We don't have the infrastructure.
