Mr. Speaker, last week I asked the environment minister to respond to the environment commissioner's report on this government's handling or mishandling of the environment.
This report clearly states that if the performance of the government does not improve the environment and the health of Canadians will be damaged. The commissioner states this government has no plan to protect Canada's biodiversity, no viable plan on climate change and it is failing to enforce its own environmental assessment guidelines.
Why is this minister allowing the government to deliberately abandon environment at the cabinet table?
