Mr. Speaker, what annoys the Bloc is that this government is working with the oil companies. That is the reality.
The government lobbyists have developed a number of communication tools to torpedo international efforts and help Canadian oil companies. In one of its lobbying campaigns, the former Minister of Natural Resources even made veiled threats that legal action would be taken against California if it did not drop its greenhouse gas reduction measures.
How can the government justify devoting more energy to fighting international greenhouse gas reduction efforts than to reducing its own emissions?
