Mr. Speaker, I suggest that my hon. colleague is being too modest in his evaluation of our plan.
When we came into government, we were acclaimed by the environmental groups as having the greenest government in history. The economy was booming, one of the greatest increases in the economy in history. Of course there were more greenhouse gases, but even in that environment, we cut hundreds of thousands of tonnes of greenhouse gases for which he has to take credit. We set up the EnerGuide program, which the new government has cancelled. Thousands of households took advantage of that program. We had the one tonne challenge, which once again cut thousands of greenhouse gases.
Our wind energy support has expired. We had initiatives for solar energy, ethanol, BIOCAP, biodiesel, the huge projects for the provinces and territories, such as joining hydro, the projects in getting small countries off diesel, BioCapture, all these things. We had one of the greenest plans in the world, including the with large final emitters and the auto industry.
It is a record of which we should be proud. He should take more credit for that.
