What they said. Where they stand.

“Built a global brand as the climate-finance banker — UN Special Envoy on Climate Action, chair of GFANZ, author of Value(s) — arguing that markets must be reshaped around net-zero.”— UN / GFANZ / Value(s) (2021)

As Prime Minister, killed the consumer carbon price, greenlit a 'nation-building' fast-track for major projects, and openly courted new oil and gas pipeline expansion — the exact fossil-fuel buildout he warned against as a banker.

Climate voters were told Carney was the adult in the room on the climate crisis. Instead, forests keep burning, oil companies keep posting record profits, and the man who wrote the book on net-zero is now the one holding the door open for pipelines. If he won't answer for it, no one in cabinet will.

“I opposed the purchase of the Trans Mountain pipeline.”— Public statement, House of Commons record

As Environment Minister, she is now defending the government's broader climate agenda while not clearly rejecting new pipeline expansion.

Toronto—Danforth voters elected someone with strong climate credentials. They deserve clarity on whether that opposition to Trans Mountain still applies as new pipeline expansion advances.

“Voted against a pro–Trans Mountain opposition motion — one of the few Liberals with a stronger environmental record on the file.”— House of Commons vote record

Now, as Chief Government Whip, he has not been a visible critic of the government's new pipeline direction — absolute silence on Trans Mountain, with a focus on 'nation-building', despite his firm stance against the pipeline in 2018.

Kingston voters should ask whether his earlier pipeline skepticism still stands, or whether caucus discipline now comes first.

“Previously framed climate and economic policy around clean growth, competitiveness, and 'pragmatic' investment.”

Now says Canada is striking the 'right balance' between oil and gas expansion and the clean economy.

Constituents should ask why climate leadership now includes expanding fossil fuel export infrastructure.

“Previously presented major projects as requiring federal-provincial compromise and responsible review.”

Now has a key role in the 'national interest' / fast-track project framework that can accelerate pipelines and other major infrastructure.

Beauséjour voters should care because Atlantic communities face major climate risks while Ottawa speeds approvals for fossil-fuel infrastructure.

“As Vancouver mayor, opposed Kinder Morgan/Trans Mountain, warning it could create 'market failure and an environmental tragedy.'”— Stand.earth

Now in federal politics, he has not been a prominent public opponent while the government advances a new west-coast pipeline plan.

A coastal BC riding on the front line of tanker-traffic risk. Vancouver-area voters should ask whether the former anti-pipeline mayor still stands by his coastal protection position.

“Defended carbon pricing as a climate-and-affordability policy, saying the government would 'keep going' with it.”— Open Parliament, Hansard

Now, as Foreign Affairs Minister, she has not been a leading public critic of the government's new pipeline and fossil-fuel export direction.

Oakville East voters should ask whether Canada's international climate credibility is weakened when cabinet supports fossil-fuel export expansion.
