Mr. Speaker, in Paris, the government committed to fight climate change, which is great.
Today, the Liberals are backtracking and adopting the same greenhouse gas reduction targets set by the Conservatives, who at one time refused to even acknowledge that climate change exists.
The government will not even come close to achieving its targets, as weak as they are, without killing the energy east pipeline project.
Does the government realize that we cannot reduce greenhouse gas emissions by increasing them? That seems obvious to Quebeckers.
