Poilievre says he’s for carbon capture, claims Liberals can’t get infrastructure projects built

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre responded to questions from reporters on Wednesday regarding the recently announced clean energy investments in Tuesday’s federal budget. He said while he is for things like carbon capture and storage, he accused the Liberal government of being unable to get infrastructure projects built. He said the Conservatives would analyze the budget for clean energy-related tax credits, but he would focus on getting “gatekeepers out of the way to get things built.”
