Madam Speaker, while the Liberals and NDP are handing out gifts to oil companies, the forest fire season has already begun out west. There was a tornado in Montérégie on Monday and, on Wednesday, the Weather Network was predicting a hot, dry summer with a high risk of drought, severe thunderstorms, crop losses and forest fires. Now is the time to make significant investments to mitigate the consequences of natural disasters. Every dollar invested now will save $15, according to a group of Quebec experts on adapting to climate change. Once again, why not take the gifts being handed to oil companies and redirect them towards climate change adaptation?
