Conservatives keep saying climate action isn’t needed, “clean tech alone” will solve emissions. Yet when we bring in investment tax credits to support clean tech, good jobs, they vote against it. That’s politics before people and our economy.
They won’t support climate, & block progress.

We’re giving law enforcement the tools they’ve been asking for to keep Canadians safe. We’re the only Five Eyes country that doesn’t have a lawful access provision.
Protecting Canadians isn’t a joke.
When will Conservatives get serious about public safety?
