Mr. Speaker, I have to point out that it is unacceptable that the member repeats talking points from a recent $45,000 junket he joined, where he enjoyed porterhouse steaks and chateaubriand, and where they ordered 10 bottles of $600 wine and champagne.
We are going to put forward measures that would protect the environment and put more money in the pockets of families. What the Conservatives are proposing is to take money from my constituents so they can make it free to pollute. In the era when our province has dealt with hurricane Fiona, hurricane Lee, wildfires like we have never seen and floods that have taken loved ones from their families, it is completely unacceptable for a Nova Scotian to take that position.
