Unlike others in the House, we also know that a healthy economy and a healthy environment go hand in hand.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5954792\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Could the <a data-HoCid=\"214310\" href=\"/politicians/catherine-mckenna/\" title=\"Catherine McKenna\">Minister of Environment and Climate Change</a> please highlight what our government is doing to transition to a clean economy so Elizabeth will celebrate her 75th birthday?</p>",
