As I said, it is clear that it is not just people of colour or indigenous people who are exposed to toxic chemicals. I very much appreciate my colleague's work on climate change and other important issues. She works hard for the environment. However, with respect to the bill, I disagree with the idea that it is not important to say the words. Environmental racism is now a threat.</p>",

C'est clair, comme je l'ai dit, que ce n'est pas seulement les gens des communaut\u00e9s de couleurs ni seulement les peuples autochtones qui sont victimes de d\u00e9chets toxiques. J'appr\u00e9cie beaucoup le travail de ma coll\u00e8gue sur les questions de changement climatique et les autres enjeux importants. Elle travaille fort pour l'environnement. N\u00e9anmoins, pour ce qui est du projet de loi, je ne suis pas en accord avec l'id\u00e9e que ce n'est pas important de dire les mots. C'est le racisme environnemental qui est maintenant une menace.</p>"
