I am so happy that, right now, there is a moment of a degree of national unity and consensus around this effort of a kind I have never seen before.
That meeting in Saskatoon—in a province that, as we know, has a Conservative government—was a meeting with more unity around free interprovincial trade and getting major projects built than any meeting of provinces, territories and the federal government that I have been present at.
Mr. Albas, I see no benefit and a great deal of harm, at this moment when the provinces are all stepping up, in the federal government somehow saying, “We're going to push you guys around.” The fact is, we don't need to. The provinces are doing a great job.
