Climate Change Bill Killed in Senate


A northwestern Ontario MP is condemning Prime Minister Harper.

Bruce Hyer's climate change legislation died in the Senate earlier this week.

The MP for Thunder Bay-Superior North calls Harper bad for the environment

"The unelected, unaccountable Senate has ambushed the country's only federal climate change legislation and killed it," says Hyer, "without hearing evidence or hearing any due consideration."

Hyer hopes to re-introduce the bill sometime in the future.
