Thank you, Mr. Pushor.
We've seen this, and it's been referred to as the biggest leak in Alberta's history, with the largest amount of contaminated effluent that's ever entered an ecosystem. It's also been referred to as the largest cover-up ever in Alberta's oil sands history.
I've also been to Fort McMurray. I'm happy to go back; I'd be glad to visit again. What I saw was an environmental disaster unfolding. I don't think I'm the only one who feels that exact same way, Mr. Pushor.
Premier Danielle Smith has claimed that Alberta oil sands “represent the safest”, the most ethical and the “cleanest fossil fuel extraction in the world”, yet today, for the last two hours, we've been discussing one of the worst environmental disasters that our country has ever seen.
Do you believe it's true that the Alberta oil sands continue to represent the safest, most ethical and cleanest fossil fuel extraction in the world, despite all the evidence that we've been hearing about today and over the last couple of months?
