Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Madam Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague from Pierre-Boucher—Les Patriotes—Verchères for his speech.

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, the member spoke of not only carbon capture and storage but enhanced oil recovery. We know carbon capture and storage has been demonstrated 32 times out of 40 to actually increase emissions as a result.

Climate Change  Mr. Speaker, enough of the political games. The Minister of Environment and Climate Change today is responding to questions from the Bloc and the NDP citing his approval of Baie du Nord, when he knows he is setting a net-zero condition that will not worth the paper it is printed on if we emit up to 100 coal-fired power plants in the year before we even get to that point.
