Mr. Speaker, that simply supports the theory that the government wants to move much too quickly, likely for the sake of interests that are completely at odds with those of the people, but that is not all.
Aside from dealing with environmental studies, the Impact Assessment Act seeks to better understand the health, social and economic impacts of a project. However, the government is prepared to scrap all that with this bill. That is already set out in Bill C‑15. It completely sets that aside when convenient.
If the government wants to move quickly, it is to serve other interests than those of the people. That is what keeps us up at night. It is not the project itself that is the issue, but the way in which it is likely to be carried out.
