Ecojustice has been warning that nothing in the Building Canada Act requires national interest projects to be consistent with Canada’s commitments on climate and biodiversity. We saw yesterday the consequence of the law’s failure to define “national interest” and set out criteria that truly support our country’s long-term sustainability and economic autonomy.

If this government is serious about affordability, reconciliation, and climate leadership, it must stop bending the definition of ‘national interest’ to serve fossil fuel giants.

It’s time for a clear reset—one that puts the well-being of people, the planet, and future generations at the center of nation-building, not outdated industries and short-term profits.
