Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are busy launching their new dirty oil pipeline project out west. Things may be buzzing in Ottawa, but it is crickets from developers. Nobody is interested. Who is going to pay, then? The answer is the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources.
Yesterday, he confirmed in committee that he wants to give $10 billion of taxpayer money to indigenous communities so that they will agree to participate in the project. The Liberals are trying to buy social licence with $10 billion in cheques.
Will the Liberals back down and promise not to put Quebeckers' money into their pipeline?
