The Conservative Party says the Liberal government’s recently introduced Sustainable Jobs Act will “kill thousands of jobs” across Canada as it aims to move oil- and gas-sector workers into green-energy jobs over the coming years.
Conservative MP and natural resources critic Shannon Stubbs said in a statement on June 19 that the proposed Bill C-50—which has been referred to as the federal “just transition” legislation—is a “job-killing plan” that will displace “450,000 direct and indirect jobs” across the country.
