"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3918540\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, I would like to revisit a question that I asked the hon. <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">Minister of the Environment</a> concerning a report issued by Germanwatch. This report indicates that, under the Conservatives, Canada has the worst record of all OECD countries when it comes to combatting climate change.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918541\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Some might say that this is not surprising in light of everything we have heard recently and all the fossil awards Canada has received at international climate change conferences. However, it is still disconcerting to again be admonished for not doing our job. There is an important explanation for that: we have not yet tackled what will become the largest emitter of greenhouse gases in Canada\u2014the oil and gas sector. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918542\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The purpose of the adjournment debate is to obtain answers that were not provided in question period. I am going to try to get those answers. I will put a few questions to the <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment</a>, who is here this evening. First, when will there be regulations for greenhouse gas emissions for the oil and gas sector?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918543\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Secondly, the <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">Minister of the Environment</a> recently made an announcement. She said that there would be a little help in that area, since it had been announced that the U.S. and China had made some firm and very important commitments to move forward on the fight against climate change. The Conservatives have long said that they would not do anything until the U.S. and China did something. That reasoning did not make any sense, but now that the U.S. and China have made these firm commitments, what did the <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">Minister of the Environment</a> do? She announced that another $300 million would be spent on the fight against climate change and some international assistance. My question for the <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment</a> is this: what does that $300 million mean? Is it the amount to be allocated every year, over 10 years, 50 years? We have seen some announcements regarding additional funding over the very long term. Over how many years will that $300 million be spread?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918544\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I have one last question for the <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment</a>. I moved a motion at the Standing Committee on the Environment and Sustainable Development asking that the opposition parties may also be represented at international climate change conferences, such as the one in Lima that began today. Will the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment support the motion that will finally once again give the opposition parties the right to attend climate change conferences? There is more than one vision of Canada, there are several. They should be represented in international debates.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918545\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Those are my main questions for the <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment</a>. I hope to get answers to all those questions.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3918540\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je vais revenir sur une question que j'ai pos\u00e9e \u00e0 l'honorable <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">ministre de l\u2019Environnement</a> concernant un rapport de Germanwatch. Ce rapport indique que, sous les conservateurs, le Canada est le pire pays de l'OCDE en ce qui concerne la lutte contre les changements climatiques. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918541\" data-originallang=\"fr\">On me dira bien s\u00fbr que ce n'est pas une surprise, \u00e9tant donn\u00e9 tout ce qu'on a entendu r\u00e9cemment et tous les prix Fossile d\u00e9cern\u00e9s au Canada dans le cadre des conf\u00e9rences internationales de lutte contre les changements climatiques. C'est tout de m\u00eame inqui\u00e9tant de recevoir encore une fois une tape sur l'\u00e9paule pour se faire dire qu'on ne fait pas notre travail. Cela s'explique par une chose tr\u00e8s importante: on ne s'est pas encore attaqu\u00e9 \u00e0 ce qui va devenir le plus grand \u00e9metteur de gaz \u00e0 effets de serre au Canada, soit le secteur du p\u00e9trole et du gaz. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918542\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Comme le d\u00e9bat d'ajournement sert \u00e0 avoir des r\u00e9ponses qu'on n'a pas eues \u00e0 la p\u00e9riode des questions, je vais essayer d'en avoir. Je vais poser quelques questions au <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire de la ministre de l'Environnement</a> qui est ici ce soir. Premi\u00e8rement, quand va-t-on avoir des r\u00e8glements pour les \u00e9missions de GES pour le secteur secteur du p\u00e9trole et du gaz? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918543\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Deuxi\u00e8mement, la <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">ministre de l\u2019Environnement</a> a r\u00e9cemment fait une annonce. Elle a dit qu'on donnerait un petit coup de main \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard, parce qu'il y a eu une grande annonce \u00e0 l'effet que les \u00c9tats-Unis et la Chine avaient pris des engagements fermes et tr\u00e8s importants afin d'aller de l'avant dans la lutte contre les changements climatiques. Les conservateurs ont longtemps dit qu'ils ne feraient rien aussi longtemps que les \u00c9tats-Unis et la Chine ne feraient rien. Ce raisonnement n'avait pas d'allure, mais maintenant qu'il y a de grands engagements fermes de la part des \u00c9tats-Unis et de la Chine, qu'a fait la <a data-HoCid=\"194618\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">ministre de l\u2019Environnement</a>? Elle a annonc\u00e9 300 millions de dollars suppl\u00e9mentaires pour la lutte contre les changements climatiques et pour l'aide internationale. Ma question pour le <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire de la ministre de l'Environnement</a> est la suivante: qu'est-ce que ces 300 millions de dollars? Est-ce un montant accord\u00e9 par ann\u00e9e, sur 10 ans, sur 50 ans? On a vu des annonces concernant l'attribution de fonds suppl\u00e9mentaires qui \u00e9taient \u00e0 tr\u00e8s long terme. Sur combien de temps s'\u00e9tale ce 300 millions de dollars? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918544\" data-originallang=\"fr\">La derni\u00e8re question que j'aimerais demander au <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire de la ministre de l'Environnement</a> est la suivante: j'ai d\u00e9pos\u00e9 une motion au Comit\u00e9 permanent de l'environnement et du d\u00e9veloppement durable qui demande \u00e0 ce que les partis de l'opposition puissent aussi \u00eatre repr\u00e9sent\u00e9s aux conf\u00e9rences internationales sur les changements climatiques, comme celle \u00e0 Lima qui a d\u00e9but\u00e9 aujourd'hui. Est-ce que le secr\u00e9taire parlementaire de la ministre de l'Environnement va appuyer la motion qui va enfin redonner le droit aux partis de l'opposition d'assister aux conf\u00e9rences sur les changements climatiques? Il n'y a pas juste une vision du Canada, il y en a plusieurs. Elles doivent \u00eatre repr\u00e9sent\u00e9es dans les d\u00e9bats internationaux.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3918545\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ce sont mes principales questions pour le <a data-HoCid=\"194828\" href=\"/politicians/colin-carrie/\" title=\"Colin Carrie\">secr\u00e9taire parlementaire de la ministre de l'Environnement</a>, et j'esp\u00e8re avoir des r\u00e9ponses \u00e0 toutes ces questions.</p>"
