How very generous of you, Mr. Speaker. I have a minute; I am not sure where to start.
This motion comes from the Conservative Party, that withdrew from the Kyoto protocol in 2012. Let us not forget those were very difficult times. They were certainly difficult for me and for many of my colleagues in the House of Commons.
Let us also recall that that same party eliminated the national round table on the environment and the economy, the only institution that linked the economy with the environment. The Conservative Party did that. It was very disappointing.
The study conducted by the national round table on the environment and the economy showed that not fighting climate change comes at a cost.
