Submission: | In order to ensure a consistent energy supply, a Conservative Government will encourage innovation in research and development aimed at creating diverse, safe, dependable, and economical energy options, including renewables and other carbon and non-carbon based energy sources that function well in Canada’s climates and geography.
|
Rationale: | We must make commitments about energy security specifically within our environmental policy, since many people do not find it easy to think about energy security and environmental protection together and they believe that Conservatives only prioritize one at the expense of the other. Being very specific about our dual commitment is especially important in a period when energy insecurity is a major problem in the world. Canada needs a secure and diverse supply of energy regardless of political events or weather conditions. This is also part of protecting our environment. |

Raisonnement: Nous devons prendre des engagements en matière de sécurité énergétique spécifiquement |
