Public funding for fossil fuel industry breaks another Liberal climate promise, advocates say

Environmental advocates argue that the Carney government's continued financial support for the oil and gas industry contradicts a federal pledge to phase out fossil fuel subsidies. This move has sparked criticism among climate activists who see it as a betrayal of climate promises and a step backward in global efforts to combat climate change. The ongoing subsidies highlight a disconnect between political commitments and actions, raising questions about the government's true commitment to a sustainable future. This controversy underscores the broader tension between economic interests and environmental responsibility.
