Mr. Speaker, that was a nice try. Canadians would trust the environment commissioner over the PMO talking points any time.
The commissioner was clear. Conservatives are playing Russian roulette on oil spill clean-ups. There is a $30 million liability limit. However, supertanker spills cost billions of dollars. This negligence means that our tourism, fishery and economies of our coastal communities are all being put at risk. Even one tanker could leave Canadian families on the hook for billions of dollars in clean-up costs.
Why have the Conservatives left Canadians standing on the edge of a liability cliff? Why are they so irresponsible?
