Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Mr. Speaker, touting oil is not okay. Since the first COP I attended, the 2015 event in Paris, I have heard people everywhere talking about just transition. That is the term that is being used internationally. Does my colleague understand why the legislation does not use that term?

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Mr. Speaker, I am going to ask my colleague basically the same kinds of questions I asked her colleague earlier. In the opinion of the officials who presented Bill C‑50 to us, Quebec's specific situation was not considered at any point in the process of drafting this bill. We can do something about that, however.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleagues for giving me another opportunity to speak to Bill C‑50, which I gave a speech about a few days ago. I would like to ask my Liberal colleague a question. How is it that this bill was drafted without taking into account the existing job training agreements between Ottawa and Quebec?

Oil and Gas Industry  Mr. Speaker, Canada will be a global driver of oil production in 2024, on the strength of Trans Mountain. Thanks to Trans Mountain, Canada will shatter oil production records and, therefore, pollution records. However, taxpayers are footing the bill for Trans Mountain. It is costing us $30.9 billion, or roughly $800 per person, babies included.

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, we are back to debating the carbon tax. I would just like to remind everyone that it does not apply in Quebec. In fact, the member for Bellechasse—Les Etchemins—Lévis was a minister in Jean Charest's Quebec government when the carbon exchange was created. She knows full well that it does not apply in Quebec.

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question. I must say that my hon. colleague is always present and always has questions. I am always amazed. Sometimes I wonder if he ever sleeps because he must be studying every bill. Why are the Conservatives against this? Every time we talk about climate change, the Conservatives are against it.

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois often finds that, when either the Conservatives or the government members open their mouths, all we hear are speeches from oil companies. When I think about Bill C‑49, what comes to mind is an image of oil wells with wind turbines on top them. The content of this bill looks a little bit like that.

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, I am going to start my speech with some compliments and then move on to the criticisms. This bill seeks to amend the 1986 agreement, which was not bad, because, even though the Supreme Court said that the federal government has jurisdiction over offshore issues, the federal government entered into an agreement with Newfoundland and Labrador to work together in that regard.

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, my colleague talked about diseases and cancer in his speech. I would like to talk to him about that. Right now pollution is causing more cancer and more respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses. The increase in pollution is also causing kidney problems. People are malnourished because of lower crop yields.

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I am going to address the subject of Bill C‑314; that goes without saying. However, I feel especially compelled to condemn the excessive and inappropriate nature of this initiative from the hon. member for Abbotsford. His bill is being tabled in reaction to an important, sensitive social issue, namely medical assistance in dying.

Climate Change  Mr. Speaker, it is October and it is 30°C. Clearly, there is something unusual about this. More and more experts believe that the 1.5°C increase we wanted to avoid before the end of the century will be exceeded by 2030. However, Canada is an oil-producing country, as the Minister of Environment and Climate Change likes to say.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his intervention. We are studying Bill C‑50 today, but I want to go back to when the Harper government tabled its 2013 budget. The important bit in the 2013 budget was the Canada job grant. That was the centrepiece. Quebec was opposed to it.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, I have just one minute, but it would take me hours to explain everything that is wrong with the government's approach to fighting climate change. The former Liberal environment minister, Mrs. McKenna, said that Canada could not be part of such a bad movie. That is not nothing.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, the Standing Committee on the Environment and Sustainable Development just finished a study proposed by the Conservatives on clean technologies. During this study, witnesses told us that it is primarily SMEs that create jobs in clean technologies. It is not really the oil companies.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, as I was saying in my speech, fossil fuel workers should not have to carry all the weight of the energy transition themselves. Yes, we are thinking about the workers. UN Secretary-General Guterres said that the energy transition will not be possible if we do not think about the workers, if they are not on board with us.
