Industry and Indigenous Leaders Comment on Bill C-69 Amendments
Members of the Save Canadian Jobs Coalition hold a news conference in Ottawa to voice concern over the government's decision to reject the majority of Senate amendments to Bill C-69, the proposed overhaul of the environmental assessment process for major resource projects. Senate approved over 180 amendments to the bill and while the government accepted some of the changes, it rejected 90 per cent of the amendments proposed by Conservative senators. The Senate must decide if it will accept the government's changes before the legislation can be passed into law. (June 17, 2019)
