    Wow, theyre prioritizing the well being of the country over the environment and indigenous people?

    Its like they’re finally trying to keep us in a first world standard of living; because they were about to be destroyed as a party entirely if they did not.

      Promised actions of good should never come at the expense of any singular group, minority, people.

      In addition destroying our land to fuel the economic engine will only benefit capitalist systems and corporations.

      I’ve yet to see how this would sustainably benefit foreign people in their own country so to import this into Canada seems ridiculous.

        It only benefits corporations huh, do you not work for a corporation yourself?

        Its an export of a product, which derives tax revenue, which derives income taxes, which results in government programs to help the poor. Pretending like its not vital in our ecosystem is silly, its our food source, it provides us building materials, corporate exports give your dollar value and are the red blood cells of society.

            Theyre literally paid out of the profits. You’re spouting nonsense.

      Your well being depends on the environment and any improvement to your well being should not come at a detriment to the people your country colonized and genocided.

      Environmental protection acts do not exist to protect the environment. They exist to protect you from what business owners will do to your environment in the name of profit seeking.
