The Liberal government did not get the job done. The current government cannot do it. We need only look at its inaction regarding the tar sands, the biggest polluter, the biggest polluting project in the world.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1172383\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Why does the government not accept the argument that its approach based on intensity targets is a gift to the major oil companies? It does nothing to reduce pollution.</p>",

Le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral n'a pas accompli l'action. Le gouvernement actuel ne peut pas accomplir cette action.

Cela ne fait rien pour r\u00e9duire la pollution.</p>"
