Why has Premier chosen to bury his head in the sand rather than plan for the fast-approaching future and take action to provide a plan for residents
Will government declare a climate emergency and establish a task force on decreasing the effects of the climate change crisis
Will government take a serious look at developing a transition plan to complete our active offshore oil fields and reach a climate crisis agreement with Ottawa that would recognize the value for society to leave other commercially viable prospects such as the Bay du Nord undeveloped
Will Minister commit to a full study into what province needs to address this alarming issue, and prepare for the future of our residents
Will Minister table the $60 million worth of carbon emissions used this year in this province
Will Premier come to Member's district so he can see and hear the accounts first-hand of people who are impacted
Will province sign on to the Beyond Oil & Gas Alliance being proposed by Denmark in Scotland
