Suzuki first called for her resignation earlier this week in La Presse while commenting on the resignation of the French environment minister, Nicholas Hulot.
"I was very impressed by Mister Hulot in France who just, on air said 'My government isn't serious about this target. We're not doing it. I quit.' Well why the hell doesn't the minister of the environment? She sounds like the minister of the economy. What's going on here?" he said Friday.
Suzuki accused McKenna of using her position to try to justify the government's policies.
"It's so hypocritical what McKenna is doing. To say that she really is committed to what they signed in Paris and that they're going full bore. They're using the Harper targets as their criteria for what they want to do. That's ridiculous. Harper was a rabid climate denier, and they're going to use his targets? What's going on? I think McKenna should resign if she means what she says about climate change."
