Mr. Speaker, unlike the party opposite, we understand that the environment and the economy go together.
I was very pleased to be in Paris at the climate change conference with opposition members, indigenous leaders, businesses, youth, and NGOs working together. We understand that putting a price on carbon is pricing pollution. It makes great economic sense. It was endorsed by the Mining Association of Canada as the most efficient way to reduce emissions and foster innovation.
We are going to take steps to tackle climate change for the future of our country and for the next generation.
