In your role as Minister of Natural Resources, one of your jobs is to talk about natural resources around the world and to talk specifically about our oil and energy sector. When you're abroad, are you able to tell potential customers that Canadian oil is responsibly extracted? You might know that there's quite a campaign going on right now in Alberta. “Oil Respect” is one of the campaigns. There are a number of campaigns that want to dispel the myths and the rap that Alberta oil has gotten from around the world. We just saw it in Edmonton, of all places, this past weekend, when Alberta oil was getting a bad rap from certain people and certain ways of thinking.
For you, as the Minister of Natural Resources, based on the evidence and on our human rights record in Canada and our labour laws, and in comparing us to other oil producers in the world, are you able to promote Canadian oil abroad? Do you, as the Minister of Natural Resources, have confidence in the way our oil is extracted and transported?
