Madam Chair, I will go back to the topic of our economy, its growth and, in particular, fostering greener spaces and ensuring cleaner air for both current and future generations of Canadians.
Last year, we announced a healthy environment and a healthy economy, our plan to combat the climate crisis and to help us get there. To fulfill that goal of net-zero carbon by the year 2050, we must continue to build a more sustainable approach that expands investments in clean energy technologies and accelerate growth to the forest-based bioeconomy.
Could the minister explain briefly how budget 2021 aims to promote green, sustainable economic growth in Canada while working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and how these steps will lead to a greener future and new job opportunities for all Canadians?
