Thank you, Minister. That's much appreciated.
The issue, of course, is that with the ascent of Russian oil production, large international companies have vacated Canada and sought opportunities elsewhere, including in places like Russia, because of a restrictive regulatory environment imposed by this government on Canadian resource development.
Do you see now the folly of the position of restricting responsibly developed, environmentally produced oil in Canada and what will fill that void on the world stage and the impact of the money flowing from that void being filled?
