The omnibus bill C-59 will soon become law. It contains a truth-in-advertising amendment that would require corporations to provide evidence to support their environmental claims.

WATCH ABOVE: The term "just transition" has generated heated debate. "The West Block" host Mercedes Stephenson spoke with Alex Pourbaix, president of Canadian energy giant Cenovus, and Kendall Dilling, president of Pathways Alliance , about "just transition" and the future of the oil and gas industry.

“With uncertainty on how the new law will be interpreted and applied, any clarity the Competition Bureau can provide through specific guidance may help direct our communications approach in the future.”The group — which has not yet responded to an interview request — added it remains committed to the work it is doing to reduce the environmental impacts of oilsands production.

Leah Temper, program director with the Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment, said Thursday she was “thrilled and surprised” to see the oilsands industry react so strongly to the passage of C-59.
