Mr. Speaker, Conservatives spent $750 million on self-promotional advertising while clawing back more than $900 million from Environment Canada. Apparently self-promotion is more important than species at risk, or more important than toxic spills in Vancouver, or more important than that elephant in the room, climate change.
Will the current government advertise its $12-million cut for species at risk? Will it advertise its $188-million cut from climate change?
Is it not ironic and tragic that Environment Canada funds are being used to bankroll Conservative Party advertising?
