Mr. Speaker, our government understands that, as a northern country, Canada is particularly vulnerable when it comes to a changing climate.
Over the weekend, the Minister of the Environment was in Canada's northern regions, where the effects of climate change are becoming more apparent. For example, the melting of the permafrost in the north has destabilized the foundations of homes and schools.
Could the Minister of the Environment please tell the House how the government is taking action to help Canadians adapt to a changing climate?
