Quebec energy project faces storm as controversy escalates over amendments
Thursday, May 22, 2025, 1:21 pm
Quebec’s proposed energy law is under fire after more than 50 last-minute amendments were introduced. Critics, including Québec solidaire, decry the process as undemocratic, fueling heated debates over transparency and accountability in the provincial legislative arena.
François Legault et son ministre des Finances Eric Girard ont défendu bec et ongles le marché du carbone face aux critiques du Parti conservateur et du Parti québécois sur les prix élevés de l’essence. Ils sont maintenant salués par les groupes environnementaux.
Le Parti québécois demande purement et simplement le retrait du projet de loi sur l’énergie.
Le dépôt de plus de 50 amendements pour le projet de loi 69 sur l’énergie de la ministre Christine Fréchette est « une pratique anti-démocratique », selon Québec solidaire (QS).
