Just to be clear, this is not simply about a project going on to benefit Alberta and the areas of British Columbia and the west coast. This project in fact is part of the Canadian economy. This will contribute tax dollars to the federal coffers, as well as the provincial coffers, to be part of paying for every single spending program we have, including every social program, every employment assistance program, every educational program, and every health program. Every program you can imagine that's funded by the federal or provincial government can only come from one source and that's from tax revenue.
While folks like Mr. Cullen want to keep his area of the province in the global recession that we're nicely coming out of in the rest of Canada, I would like to think that the job opportunities and the economic benefits that could be provided to the communities along this proposed pipeline could be tremendous, and I suggest that they're perhaps not giving enough attention to that.
