Mr. Speaker, there is one person here who approved one billion barrels, and he is on the other side of the House.
Reducing emissions by 43% by 2030 means we all need to roll up our sleeves: governments, businesses and citizens. The minister's approval of Bay du Nord sends a very bad message, that it is no big deal. Talk about wishful thinking. The IPCC was clear. We must reduce our oil production and consumption now.
By approving it, does he realize that he is contributing to climate warming here and abroad for years and years to come?
