First, this and other items should never have been included in a "Budget"
Bill. Their placement there is a calculated slap in the face to Canadian
parliamentary tradition. It is a statement that the Opposition has no
useful role in government.

Second, the Harper Government has made it perfectly clear that they plan to
restrict and reduce the environmental impact process, reduce environmental
research, reduce fisheries research, reduce climate change research, reduce
Arctic climate monitoring, downsize Environment Canada, downsize Parks
Canada within EC, downsize Fisheries & Oceans Canada, eliminate our
commitments under Kyoto, increase the development of the oilsands,
challenge the involvement of charitable environmental groups in
environmental issues, and so forth.

All of this has been public. One would have to make a conscious choice in
order to believe that huge changes have not occurred and will not continue
to occur, most likely at a faster pace.
