Unlimited power with no oversight. Seems legit. TLDR Ready, fire, aim!

"Bill C-5 does two key things, it removes interprovincial trade barriers but also creates the government's ability to fast-track large-scale infrastructure and energy projects—such as mines, pipelines, ports, highways, and nuclear facilities"

It is good for Canada and less than 5% of the population have had too much to say for a long time. It is time to rein in their power.

I get that there is a crisis but hitting a panic button that isn't connected to anything isn't anything but theatrics. And where the fuck does Ford get off? Hat in hand my ass! Show me the projects! Otherwise you're just grabbing at what isn't yours! It's the greenbelt scandal on a federal level.
