Developing carbon capture features in the mix of every credible path to net zero, and smart policies that incent the use of these technologies will help reduce our emissions and grow our economy.

Madam Speaker, while the Conservatives are trying to determine whether climate change is real, our government is moving forward to cut pollution, create good jobs and make lives more affordable for Canadians.

Madam Speaker, the fight against climate change should be a top priority. The impacts of climate change are having a greater and more direct impact on developing countries, and are disproportionately affecting women and girls. With the increasing frequency and severity of floods and droughts and the loss of biodiversity, women and girls are the ones most impacted by natural disasters and are the first to go without food when crops fail.
