Mr. Speaker, the NDP is fighting to create good jobs and protect the environment.
The Liberal government, on the other hand, is going to make a Texas-based company rich by using taxpayers' money to buy an old pipeline for $4.5 billion. According to Équiterre, every dollar invested in renewable energy will create six to eight times more jobs than a dollar invested in fossil fuels. Yes, you heard me right. I said six to eight times more.
When will the government stop investing in yesterday's energy and start investing in the energy of the future?
