Mr. Speaker, the only place in the world where it seems like it is okay to never talk about climate change, commit to doing nothing about climate change and commit to actually increasing our carbon emissions seems to be the Conservative campaign room because the world knows that climate change is real. We just had a horrific hurricane sweep across Florida, one of the most powerful ever. Wildfires are forcing Canadians out of their homes and, yes, the Conservatives want to ask, how is the carbon price going to reduce hurricanes and forest fires? It is science. The Conservatives need to go back to, literally, grade 9 science. Greenhouse gases cause extreme weather.
