Bill C-226, An Act respecting the development of a national strategy to assess, prevent and address environmental racism and to advance environmental justice

Vote

Yea.

Rationale

Our government supported a nearly identical version of the Bill in the last Parliament. Additionally, the bill provides adequate flexibility with respect to the development of a national strategy. Support for Bill S-226 demonstrates action on the commitment in the Minister of Environment and Climate Change’s mandate letter to introduce legislation requiring the development of an environmental justice strategy.

Passed.
