Madam Chair, the minister is not answering my questions. I asked whether the Canadian contribution to IADN will continue and if Canada will be able to maintain its commitment to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement.
This past week the Environment Commissioner reported what we have known for a very long time; namely, that the government is not on track to make its 2020 emissions targets. The government has no comprehensive climate change plan. It has weakened its own greenhouse gas emissions targets by an astonishing 90%. It could only get a third of the way to reaching its very weak target, and the government has spent over $9 billion to achieve very little for Canadian taxpayers.
When will the minister deliver the plans and regulations for the six remaining sectors and particularly for one of the most important sectors, the oil and gas industry, as the oil sands are the fastest growing source of emissions in Canada?
