Mr. Speaker, I think Canadians recognize backtracking and waffling when they see it. They are concerned about it with respect to Kyoto and with respect to the protection of our water.
In the last parliament, government members actually voted for a ban on the export of bulk water. Yesterday the Prime Minister opened the door on the very opposite.
I would like to ask the Prime Minister to explain. Why has he flip-flopped on something as fundamentally important to Canadians as our water?
