Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the member on her first speech in the House and look forward to many more good speeches like that.
I would like to ask the hon. member what she would like to see in the throne speech regarding the environment?
As we know, the previous government had a green plan. The present government cut over 100 items. There was support for solar energy, wind energy, biodiesel, carbon sequestration, clean coal, cutting auto emissions and large final emitters. There were many projects. Some that the government cut were brought back, such as EnerGuide, but with less money and it is less effective.
Does the hon. member think that the throne speech was adequate in relation to the environment, and if not, what would she have liked to have seen in the throne speech?
