Mr. Speaker, I asked the hon. member for Kings—Hants a question about the fact that this fund will finance oil and gas projects, even as we face challenges related to climate change. Climate change does not really worry him, though. He says it does, but he did not answer the question.
My question was clear. Does my hon. colleague agree with the government taking $25 billion of public money and using it to fund projects involving liquefied natural gas, pipelines or oil sands, or other projects that would increase production? Is it acceptable to use public funds for that, given that these projects contribute to climate change, among other things?
