Climate organizations in Canada are criticizing Bill C-39, arguing the legislation dismantles the country’s environmental policy on a scale they describe as unprecedented. Greenpeace campaigners say the bill gives federal cabinet unchecked discretion to bypass existing environmental laws, while Senator Clément Gignac has defended the measure. The dispute highlights growing tension over how far the government can go in weakening protections, with critics demanding the bill be revised or withdrawn.
