Five policy questions Tory leadership front-runner Pierre Poilievre hasn’t answered:

What Poilievre has vowed to do is cancel the federal carbon price,
which he calls a tax, and scrap environmental impact assessment
legislation and the ban on oil tankers off the coast of northern British
Columbia, which the Liberal government passed in 2019.

He argues these measures have stymied the country’s ability to get
energy projects, such as pipelines, built. Poilievre also promised to
end the import of oil from “foreign dictatorships,” boost oil production
in Newfoundland and Labrador, and support an east-west pipeline.

Poilievre has suggested he would rely on technology to reduce emissions but he hasn’t elaborated on what that means.
