      So, if it isn’t already, the obvious solution would be a sunset clause. It’d only be a set number of projects, or only for a few years that a government could fast track projects like this.

      > „Do I trust a Pierre Poilievre government to protect Indigenous rights, to protect environmental rights, make sure they’re ensuring proper democratic participation in not only the designation, but how a law is excluded from applying to a national interest project?“ he said. „Absolutely not.“

      I honestly don’t know enough about the bill to know if Nate is right here or not, but I would trust him with stuff like this.

      The problem is there isn’t much of an appetite for „let’s run this through some committees“ right now.

      And of course the Liberals are being savaged on conservative social media for „falling apart“ while NES „blasts“ Carney.

      In case anyone was wondering why party members feel like they can’t speak candidly on anything.

      Semi related: I fully believe NES‘ willingness to do stuff like this is why he wasn’t picked for cabinet.

      It’s hard to take anything NES has to say as good faith anymore given his axe to grind over being booted out of cabinet. It’s a matter of time before he’s booted from caucus and I bet he’d be thrilled over all the attention that would get him.

      Edit: I just got 4 responses to this in like 30 seconds. Yes, we all see you NES Reddit mafia.

      Maybe this bill is going too far but we need to find a way to have projects moving forward in Canada, especially in the new geopolitical context. We can’t afford anymore to have projects years in limbo in bureaucratically processes but we have also to ensure that rights are also protected.

      Carney called . There’s a healthy reason he didn’t make cabinet. This bill grants more power, yes, but it’s still resistable .

      Major projects get backlogged by other major projects . The ones that got more support end stuck in que with ones that are battles ..

      This basically allows the ones without as much resistance to get fast tracked .

      For example, this bill changes nothing for the possibility of crude line to the north pacific coast .

      This bill doesn’t give veto power. That power already exists but never gets used for a reason.

      Honestly tired by the constant over reactions, let’s move on stuff , if it gets abused then let’s over react and correct.

      This MP loves to call him self a disrupter, or rebel , cant remember. He kind of takes the Mad max approach of saying the opposite just to secure support by saying the opposite.

    6. The great thing about studying things further is it means MPs can just sit on their fucking asses, collect a salary and accomplish something between Jack and shit for the country at large.

      Justin Trudeau studied things for a decade, while the infrastructure of the country fell apart around him. NES has demonstrated he’s a politician in the mode of Justin Trudeau. which is why Trudeau added him to cabinet and why Carney took him the fuck out.

      >Erskine-Smith told reporters Tuesday he’s never seen a bill of this magnitude pushed through the House at such a pace in his 10 years as a Toronto MP.

      Yeah, we know. That’s been exactly the fucking problem. The only bill Trudeau’s Liberals were deeply passionate about and were desperate to get in place was the nonsense gun ban, which of course NES was all in favor of.

      Enough with the braying of the anti-progress progressive.

    7. I spent the first 21 years of my career in the private sector and 17 in the public. I recently retired. In both environments things get done, things get missed, costs go higher than expected, stuff goes off schedule etc.

      However the reason things go so much slower in the public sector is that things are discussed, touched and reviewed way too many times. It’s a constant revisiting of every decision at every milestone with debates and committees and people weighing in and yet with all these checkpoints, with all this so-called „collaboration“ things are still messed up.

      I know how this stuff moves forward. They get approval for the priorities through this bill. Then there is a process including consultations at the appropriate point. There are strict rules for procurement. And there will be approvals done for the spending when it gets to it. So enough already. Just get on with it and when the time is right to weight in and debate, you will.

    8. No. Enough bureaucracy and making sure every Ken and Karen is okay with it. We need to act swiftly and decisively. That’s what I voted for.
