It brings me a lot of joy to hear my colleague from Manitoba say that he's an environmentalist on this committee.
Thank you for admitting your passion for the environment and for this committee.
I may be going back to fishing. I'm looking at my colleague from Newfoundland, who I hope one day will invite us to her beautiful province to actually go fishing, rather than on fishing expeditions in this committee. Maybe I digress.
I have a question about the intention. I'm going to the third paragraph. I think that's what my colleague from Carleton was alluding to earlier with the use of the word “fishing”—no offence to Alberta. There are fewer lakes. I'm on an island, so I can literally go fishing in Rivière des Prairies. I digress again.
