Mr. Speaker, I wish to table a petition today signed by members of my community in Outremont and Mile End.
The petitioners are calling on the government to act more quickly and decisively to reduce our emissions and make the just and green transition we all want.
I am extremely honoured to be presenting this petition on behalf of For Our Kids. These are grandparents and parents who are asking the government to reduce emissions by 60% below 2005 levels by 2030 while creating good, well-paying, low-carbon jobs for Canadians right across the country. They are also calling for a wealth tax in order to pay for this just transition. I am extremely proud to present their petition to the House of Commons.
