Mr. Speaker, climate change is threatening the St. Lawrence River. That is what federal government scientists disclosed on Wednesday.
Water temperatures are reaching record levels, as much as five degrees above average. Oxygen levels are decreasing. As a result, species such as shrimp are in serious decline. The economy and biodiversity of our regions are at risk. Meanwhile, as scientists sound the alarm, the federal government is opening a new pipeline in western Canada to encourage dependence on dirty oil. All of this while we are in the midst of a climate crisis.
When will the Liberals starting listening to science?
