I'm not worried about the Minister of Natural Resources because he said he'd bring in the military about a year ago to get this thing built. I think the concern is that you refuse to condemn the violent actions of illegal protesters and anti-energy activists for votes because you want to keep that soft—sorry—NDP, left, and anti-energy activist coalition of voters in British Columbia. Therefore, it is very concerning to me that you, a senior minister speaking on behalf of the government, will not condemn illegal, violent, physical attacks on RCMP officers. I think you should answer clearly that yes, you condemn it.
