Mr. Speaker, I am afraid that not even the Government of Canada can guarantee what the temperature is going to be tomorrow or a week from now.
However, what we can guarantee is that we are keeping an election promise to introduce a clean air act with teeth that will protect the health of Canadians, an act, by the way, which the NDP demanded during the last election.
We are pleased to see the support for the environmental plan announced yesterday from the head of the Canadian Medical Association who said, “--by recognizing and targeting the role clean air has in ensuring good health, the government appears to be on the right track”.
