Debate: Canadian Environmental Bill of Rights
Channel: Linda Duncan
Date: 2019-06-11

My Private Member's Bill, C-438, a Canadian Environmental Bill of Rights, saw the first round of debate in the House on June 6, 2019. 
My bill would extend to all Canadians the right to a clean ecologically balanced environment, impose duties on the federal government to take actions to enact and enforce protections and extend rights to Canadians to environmental information, to participate in decisions impacting the environment and to take action to force government action.
