Mr. Speaker, I have the pleasure to rise today to present two petitions.
The first is a petition with respect to the inaction of our federal government to address climate change and the impacts of climate change on the day-to-day lives of Canadians. The federal government withdrew from Kyoto. It cancelled the home retrofit program, which helped cut emissions and the energy bills of families. It failed to deliver the public transit strategy to get cars off the road.
The petitioners feel that the NDP is the only party with a plan to protect the environment and grow the economy.
