We saw it this summer in Quebec, in British Columbia, and pretty much all around the world.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933139\" data-originallang=\"fr\">In this country, the oil and gas sector is responsible for 30% of all our carbon emissions, which are increasing every year. That is why we absolutely must have a strict cap on greenhouse gas emissions for this sector.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933140\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The Liberals promised it in 2021, but we are still waiting. We are resolutely waiting for these regulations. The time for half measures is over. The <a data-HoCid=\"278910\" href=\"/politicians/steven-guilbeault/\" title=\"Steven Guilbeault\">Minister of Environment and Climate Change</a> cannot present a plan riddled with loopholes, exemptions or delays. New Democrats will not accept a weak, loose system with financial compensation for companies and no coercive measures. Playtime is over. A strict emissions cap is essential if we are to meet our targets.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933141\" data-originallang=\"fr\">We urge the minister to take action. The NDP will make sure our children are protected.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7933138\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, la plan\u00e8te br\u00fble litt\u00e9ralement. On l'a vu cet \u00e9t\u00e9 au Qu\u00e9bec, en Colombie-Britannique et un peu partout dans le monde.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933139\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Chez nous, le secteur p\u00e9trolier et gazier est responsable de 30 % de toutes nos \u00e9missions de carbone et celles-ci augmentent chaque ann\u00e9e. C'est pourquoi nous avons absolument besoin d'un plafond strict d'\u00e9missions des gaz \u00e0 effet de serre pour ce secteur.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933140\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Les lib\u00e9raux l'ont promis en 2021, mais on attend encore. On attend cette r\u00e9glementation de pied ferme. Le temps des demi-mesures est termin\u00e9. Le <a data-HoCid=\"278910\" href=\"/politicians/steven-guilbeault/\" title=\"Steven Guilbeault\">ministre de l\u2019Environnement et du Changement climatique</a> ne peut pas pr\u00e9senter un plan truff\u00e9 d'\u00e9chappatoires, d'exemptions ou de d\u00e9lais. Les n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates n'accepteront pas un syst\u00e8me mou et flou avec des compensations financi\u00e8res pour les compagnies ou l'absence de mesures coercitives. La r\u00e9cr\u00e9ation est termin\u00e9e. Ce plafond strict est essentiel pour que nous atteignions nos cibles.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7933141\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Nous pressons le ministre d'agir. Le NPD veillera \u00e0 prot\u00e9ger nos enfants.</p>"
