Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act Report stage of Bill C-50. The bill establishes a framework to support workers and economic growth in the shift to a net-zero economy, including a partnership council and action plans. Conservatives propose numerous amendments, fearing significant job losses in traditional energy sectors and arguing it infringes on provincial jurisdiction. Liberals and NDP support the bill as a necessary step for sustainable jobs and transition, while the Bloc raises concerns about Quebec's jurisdiction. Greens call it a missed opportunity but support action. 38600 words, 11 hours in 4 segments: 1 2 3 4.
